LLP. 633 SOUTH FEDERAL HIGHWAY, FT. LAUDERDALE. FL 33301, TEL. EFTA01092179 Razorback Funding, LLC, et at, v. TD Bank N.A., et al.. Complaint Plaintiffs' Claims 1. The Plaintiffs sue the Defendants and seek the following: a. Compensatory damages in excess of $100,000,000.00, pre judgment interest, and other amounts to be particularized at trial as a direct and proximate result of Defendants' commission of the following: i. conversion; ii. fraudulent misrepresentation; iii. negligent misrepresentation; iv. negligent supervision; v. breach of fiduciary duty; vi. civil conspiracy; and vii. aiding and abetting fraud, conversion and breach of fiduciary duty; b. punitive damages upon obtaining leave of court; c. taxable costs and attorney's fees; and d. any such further relief this court deems equitable and just under the circumstances. Overview 2. This action arises out of a fraudulent scheme orchestrated by Scott W. Rothstein, who bilked investors out of hundreds of millions of dollars. Mr. Rothstcin, through the use of his law firm Rothstein Rosenfeldt Adler, P.A. (collectively referred to herein as the "Principal Conspirators" and more fully described, Infra), devised an elaborate plan to assign putative Page 2 of 147 CONRAD & SCHERER. LLP, 633 SOUTH FEDERAL HIGHWAY, FT. LAUDERDALE. FL 33301, TEL. M/ EFTA01092180 Razorback Funding LLC, et at, v. TI) Bank N.A., et at. Complaint plaintiffs' confidential settlements with structured payments to investors at a lump sum discounted rate. In reality, while some of the cases relied upon to induce investor funding were real, all of the confidential settlements were purely fabricated. Indeed, returns to earlier investors were not made via structured payments, but instead were made with the principal obtained from later investors--a classic Ponzi scheme.' 3. However, the Principal Conspirators did not act alone. Defendant, TD BANK, N.A. (hereinafter, "11) Bank"), a subsidiary of Toronto Dominion Bank, was complicit in this scheme, serving as a critical lynchpin "legitimizing" the Principal Conspirators plot and facilitating crucial inducements to investor action. Specifically, investors were duped by TD Bank employees conspiring with the Principal Conspirators to manipulate TD Bank's trust account statements and conniving investors with false senses of security predicated on written assurances that settlement funds existed and would only be released directly to them. It is these bank declarations, tantamount to a guaranty, which gravely impacted investor risk-evaluation analysis and unduly influenced investors to close their deals. 4. Moreover, demonstrative of TD Bank's participation or alternatively, evidence of their gross negligence and wanton disregard, is the bank's reckless disregard of numerous "red flags." Irrefutably, TD Bank knew that Rothstein Rosendfeldt Adler, P.A. (hereinafter, "RRA") was moving hundreds of millions of dollars through its TD Bank trust accounts. In fact, in October 2009 alone, almost a half of a billion dollars moved in and out of RRA's Fort Lauderdale based trust accounts--more money than most bank branches would likely see in a decade. Yet, despite the A Ponzi scheme is generally recognized as a fraudulent investment operation that pays returns to separate investors from their own money or from monies paid by subsequent investors, rather than from any actual profit earned. The scheme is named after Charles Ponzi who became notorious for using the technique in early 1920. Page 3 of 147 CONRAD 4 SCHERER. LLP. 633 SOUTH FEDERAL HIGHWAY, FT. LAUDERDALE. FL 33301, TEL. EFTA01092181 Razorback Funding, LLC, et at, v. TD Bank N.A., et aL. Complaint massive amount of funds being moved by one client, TD Bank never sought independent verification of the source of monies, choosing instead to stand idly by. The Ponzi scheme simply could not have gained traction without ID Bank's involvement in sanctioning or, otherwise, willfully failing to authenticate the origin of the enormous amounts of money coming through its doors. 5. Unfortunately, this is not the only pending case which alleges a TD Bank affiliate as a complicit actor involved in a Ponzi scheme. On August 29, 2009, TD Bank's parent, Toronto Dominion Bank, was sued for "knowing assistance and/or dishonest assistance" in a Ponzi scheme based upon, inter alia, holding over S20,000,000.00 in fraudulent proceeds and transferring hundreds of millions of dollars through the alleged perpetrator's accounts. See a copy of the Dynasty Furniture Manufacturing, Ltd., et aL, v. Toronto Dominion Bank, Statement of Claim attached hereto for reference as Exhibit "A." 6. Based on the allegations set forth herein, Plaintiffs aver that, at all materials times, TD Bank had actual knowledge of its complicit involvement in a highly-organized Ponzi scheme and/or was recklessly or willfully blind to its role in materially supporting the scheme. TD Bank's acts and/or omissions in assisting, facilitating, and actively participating in the Ponzi scheme, renders TD Bank as a direct and proximate cause of Plaintiffs' losses and, therefore, is liable for the damages Plaintiffs incurred.

Complaint The Ponzi Scheme The Rothstein Facade 24. From humble beginnings in 2003, Rothstein built RRA into one of the fastest growing Florida-based law firms. Under Rothstein's stewardship, RRA grew from seven attorneys to over seventy and amassed over two hundred and fifty in staff. Along with its dramatic growth in size, RRA rapidly emerged as a legal, political and philanthropic powerhouse. 25. Not surprisingly, Rothstein amassed an enormous portfolio of assets including more than sixteen real estate properties, twenty-five cars, an eighty-seven foot yacht, and various interests in a myriad of businesses ranging from watches to restaurants to vodka. Rothstein lived lavishly and spent prolifically--a critical initial component to set his scheme in motion. 26. With RRA's tireless marketing efforts and meteoric rise into prominence, Rothstein quickly made forays into preeminent social circles, rubbing elbows with high net- worth individuals and political luminaries, the perfect breeding grounds to lure wealthy investors. His plot was up and running. The Plan 27. Rothstein seized upon his new found stature to entice investors into what would eventually become a Ponzi scheme using his budding employment and labor practice at RRA as his conduit. 28. The scheme was predicated on the Principal Conspirators self-professed pipeline of pre-suit, confidential settlement agreements as the "preeminent sexual harassment and labor employment law finn in the country." Investors were told that the Principal Conspirators had an Page 9 of 147 CONRAD E. SCHERER. LLP. 633 SOUTH FEDERAL HIGHWAY, FT. LAUDERDALE. FL 33301, TEL. EFTA01092187 Razorback Funding, LLC, es at, v. Ti) Bank N.A., ci at. Complaint extensive in-house private investigative team, including former F.B.I. and C.I.A. agents, whose singular task was to obtain compromising evidence against high-profile putative defendants. Rothstein's story was that the evidence and surveillance acquired, often supporting civil causes of action ranging from sexual harassment to mass tort cover-ups to whistle-blower claims, was presented to the putative defendant who was then offered an opportunity to avoid litigation and the negative publicity associated therewith by agreeing to resolve the matter voluntarily by and through a confidential settlement with the putative plaintiff. 29. Once the putative defendant agreed, the confidential settlement always included two main ingredients: (1) that structured payments to a putative plaintiff be made over time, generally a three to nine month time period; and (2) that the putative defendant would fund the entire settlement up front to be held in RRA's TD Bank trust account and disbursed to the putative plaintiff in accordance with the terms of the confidential settlement agreement. The Pitch 30. Rothstein informed investors that the putative plaintiffs did not want to wait for the structured monthly payouts and would agree to assign their rights to the structured payout for a lump-sum payment typically in the range of 20-40% of the settlements' face-value. 31. Rothstein always had a plethora of plausible explanations as to why a putative plaintiff wanted their money now and simply could not wait for the structured monthly payments. 32. Rothstein claimed to want nothing from the deal and was only presenting the "opportunity" for the putative plaintiff's benefit and to facilitate recovery of RRA's contingent fcc. Page 10 of 147 CONRAD E. SCHERER. LLP, 633 SOUTH FEDERAL HIGHWAY. FT. LAUDERDALE. FL 33301, TEL. EFTA01092188 Razorback Funding LW, et at, v. TD Bank N.A., et at. Complaint 33. Notwithstanding, Rothstein would often boast that if not for his professional and legal conflicts he would be the one purchasing these assignments. 34. As a means to induce investor action, Rothstein would show investors the purported settlement agreement in an attempt to substantiate the deal; however, because the settlements were pre-suit and confidential, the names of the putative plaintiffs and putative defendants were redacted. 35. Additionally, the Principal Conspirators would provide: (1) confirmation of RRA's trust account balance at TD Bank evidencing the putative defendants fully funded settlement proceeds; (2) a "lock letter", drafted and executed by a TD Bank executive, irrevocably confirming that the respective settlement proceeds in RRA's trust account could only be paid directly to the investor's designated account which, in most cases, was an account at TD Bank; and (3) opportunities for an independent third-party verifier to authenticate the underlying settlement, assignment and funding of settlement proceeds. 36. Notably, Rothstein was hyper-vigilant regarding access to RRA accounts under the guise of confidentiality. In fact, potential investors could only access TD Bank account information in one of two ways. Either Rothstein would invite the investor to his office to view the online balance or, he would "authorize" TD Bank to provide copies of account statements and wire transfers prepared and delivered by TD Bank executives Spinosa, Kcrstetter and Caretsky. On numerous occasions, TD Bank vice-president Spinosa, assistant manager Kerstetter, and assistant vice president Caretsky, physically handed the trust account statement to Rothstein in the immediate presence of an investor.

As the final piece to persuade an investment, Rothstein would offer to personally guaranty the transaction. This personal guaranty, secured by the significant assets (as discussed, supra), was an essential component which tacitly lent credibility and security to the underlying transaction. 38. Once an investor was interested, the Principal Conspirators, in conjunction with Baden, drafted an agreement for the assignment of the settlement agreement and proceeds. 39. Upon execution of the assignment, the investor would wire transfer to RRA's trust account the lump sum payment for immediate disbursement to the putative plaintiff. Thereafter, RRA was obligated to make payment from the funds previously verified and held in RRA's trust account at TD Bank directly to the investor's lock letter trust account at TD Bank in strict accordance with the terms of the purported settlement agreement. Ponzi Scheme In Action Fabricated Settlements Premised on Real Cases 40. In certain instances, the purported settlements, albeit fraudulent, were based on actual cases being handled by RRA. For example, one of the settlements involved herein was based upon facts surrounding Jeffrey Epstein, the infamous billionaire financier. In fact, RRA did have inside information due to its representation of one of Epstein's alleged victims in a civil case styled Jane Doe v. Jeffiey Ecptein, pending in the Southern District of Florida. Representatives of D3 were offered "the opportunity" to invest in a pre-suit $30,000,000.00, court settlement against Epstein arising from the same set of operative facts as the Jane Doe case, but involving a different underage female plaintiff. See e-mail dated October 6, 2009 referencing Epstein which is attached hereto and incorporate herein as Exhibit "B." To augment Page 12 of 147 CONRAD E. SCHERER. LLP, 633 SOUTH FEDERAL HIGHWAY, FT. LAUDERDALE. FL 33301, TEL. EFTA01092190 Razorback Funding LLC, et al., v. 772) Bank N.A., et at. Complaint his concocted story Rothstein invited D3 to his office to view the thirteen banker's boxes of actual case files in Jane Doe in order to demonstrate that the claims against Epstein were legitimate and that the evidence against Epstein was real. In particular, Rothstein claimed that his investigative team discovered that there were high-profile witnesses onboard Epstein's private jet where some of the alleged sexual assaults took place and showed D3 copies of a flight log purportedly containing names of celebrities, dignitaries and international figures. Because of these potentially explosive facts, putative defendant Epstein had allegedly offered $200,000,000.00 for settlement of the claims held by various young women who were his victims. Adding fuel to the fire, the investigative team representative privately told a D3 representative that they found three additional claimants which Rothstein did not yet know about. Further, Preve was present for this meeting, despite the fact that he was not involved as an investor or representative in the D3 deal. 41. Additionally, Rothstein used RRA's representation in the Epstein case to pursue issues and evidence unrelated to the underlying litigation, but potentially beneficial to lure investors into the Ponzi scheme. For instance, RRA relentlessly pursued flight data and passenger manifests regarding flights Epstein took with other famous individuals knowing full well that no under age women were on board and no illicit activities took place. RRA also inappropriately attempted to take the depositions of these celebrities in a deliberate effort to bolster Rothstein's lies. 42. Conspicuously Preve, who maintained an office at RRA despite being a Banyon Income Fund, LP employee, attended the aforementioned meeting despite his lack of involvement as an investor or representative. Page 13 of 147 CONRAD S. SCHERER. LLP. 633 SOUTH FEDERAL HIGHWAY, Ft LAUDERDALE. FL 33301. TEL. EFTA01092191 Razorback Funding, LLC, et al., v. 7D Bank N.A., ex al.. Complaint 43. Another actual case which Rothstein attempted to use as a false predicate for his scheme was a mass tort case against Chiquita Brands International. In this instance, Rothstein claimed to be representing plaintiffs in 450 wrongful death cases on the verge of settling for $2,000,000.00 each. Rothstein told investors to begin raising funds in order to purchase this settlement. See e-mail dated October 14, 2009 referencing Chiquita which is attached hereto and incorporated herein as Exhibit "C." While the cases against Chiquita are real, Rothstein did not represent any of the plaintiffs and the cases remain pending. Plaintiffs' Investments: I. Banyon Income Fund 44. Banyon Income Fund, LP (hereinafter, 131F"), was formed in May 2009, and served as an original feeder fund for the Principal Conspirators structured settlement deals. 45. According to offering materials, BIF's stated investment goal was to purchase: discount settlements and related periodic revenue stream from individual plaintiffs who have settled their labor and employment related lawsuits or claims, and who would otherwise receive their settlement amounts over a period of time. The purchased settlements are secured by the full settlement amounts which will have been deposited in a trust account established by the plaintiffs attorney for the benefit of the plaintiff prior to purchase by Banyon Income Fund, LP. These settlements are released to Banyon Income Fund, LP over time to liquidate the purchased settlement. See Confidential Offering Memorandum dated April 30, 2009, a copy of which is attached hereto and incorporated herein as Composite Exhibit "D." 46. Not coincidentally, BIF's investment strategy is identical to the purported investment vehicle offered by the Principal Conspirators at the center of the Ponzi scheme. Page 14 of 147 CONRAD E.

All or substantially all of BIF's assets were funneled into the Principal Conspirators scheme. 48. In the spring of 2009, Barry Bekkedam from Ballamor Capital Management, LLC (hereinafter, "Ballamor)3 and promoter of BIF, met Doug Von Allmen (D&L Partners) to discuss D&L Partners participation in 131F. 49. During that discussion, Mr. Von Allmon learned that BIF was started by George Levin, a professed mentor and confidant of Rothstein, and that the settlements BIF was purchasing were through an exclusive arrangement negotiated between Rothstein and Levin on behalf of BIF. 50. Mr. Von Allmen was told by Mr. Bckkcdam that Mr. Levin was personally worth in excess of $400,000,000.00 and would personally guarantee the settlements. 5 I . Additionally, Mr. Bckkedam told Mr. Von Allmen that the settlements were already fully-funded in the attorneys' trust accounts, that a "Big Four" auditing firm would verify them quarterly, and that Ballamor had continuous unfettered access to the trust account balances and would be responsible for monitoring same. 52. Finally, Mr. Von Allmen was told by Mr. Bekkedam that it would take two signatures to move the money, one of which would be someone from BIF. 53. Mr. Von Allmon (through D&L Partners) brought his wife Linda Von Allmen (through Dynasty Trust) into the investment while, approximately one month later, his step-son, Dean Kretschmar (collectively referred to herein as "Banyon Investors") was brought into the investment deal by Barry Bekkedam.

Prior to investing, each Banyon Investor received a "Confidential Offering Memorandum" dated April 30, 2009 which described the terms and conditions of the purported deals in greater detail. See Composite Exhibit "I)." 55. Significantly, the Confidential Offering Memorandum provided that the receipt of the wire transfer from the putative defendant into RBA's trust account would be verified by an independent third party. Id. 56. Furthermore, the Banyon Investors were assured that a representative of the limited partners of BIF would have online access to banking records for each deposit account and all system records related to the purchased settlements and could verify purchase settlement trust accounts and deposits by putative defendants. Id. 57. Michael Szafranski, president of Onyx Capital Management, acted as an independent verifier for the Banyan Investors and B1F. Prior to and during the course of his investigation, Mr. Szafranski obtained the following information which demonstrated TD Bank's involvement: a.

Razorback was formed September 24, 2009 for purposes of investing in two RRA settlements: (1) a $40,600,000.00 structured settlement, payable in four equal monthly installments, offered in exchange for a lump sum payment of $23,200,000.00; and (2) a $26,100,000.00 structured settlement, payable in three equal monthly installments, offered in exchange for a lump sum payment of $17,400,000.00. See Confidential Settlement Agreements and Releases which are attached hereto and incorporated herein as Composite Exhibit "O." Page 18 of 147 CONRAD E. SCHERER. LLP. 633 SOUTH FEDERAL HIGHWAY. FT. LAUDERDALE. FL 33301, TEL EFTA01092196 Razorback Funding, LLC, et at. v. TI..) Bank N.A., et at. Complaint 60. In particular, the deal was structured so Razorback would fund $32,000,000.00 towards the purchase of these settlements by means of a loan to Banyon USVI, LLC. Banyon USVI in turn would contribute $8,600,000.00 to purchase the settlement proceeds from the Principal Conspirators. See Acknowledgement of Assignment/Purchase of Settlement Proceeds and Sale and Transfer Agreements which is attached hereto and incorporated herein as Composite Exhibit "P." 61. On or about September 18, 2009, as part of its due diligence, Razorback obtained a copy of a TD Bank "lock letter" signed by Spinosa used in a prior deal. See September 18, 2009 lock letter from TD Bank which is attached hereto and incorporated herein as Exhibit "Q." The lock letter indicates that TD Bank had been irrevocably instructed to pay the fund identified in a particular RRA trust account only to the investor's bank account. 62. On October 1, 2009, Mike Szafranski, who was utilized as the independent reviewer for Razorback, met with Rothstein to review and verify all of the documents supporting the Razorback deal. In that meeting, Mr. Szafranski witnessed Rothstein sign on to the TD Bank on- line banking website and verified that all of the wire transfers for the underlying Razorback settlement deals had been received by RRA and were held in AAA's trust account ending in x-1356. A copy of the October 1, 2009 email from Mike Szafranski verifying the above-referenced account is attached hereto and incorporated herein as Exhibit "It" 63. Mr. Szafranski also verified that a "lock letter" had been received by Spinosa as Regional Vice President of TD Bank dated October 1, 2009 stating the following: Pursuant to your written instructions to us of September 30, 2009, please be advised that all funds contained in the above referenced account shall only be distributed upon your or Stuart Rosenfeldt's instruction and shall only be distributed Page 19 of 147 CONRAD & SCHERER.

See October 1, 2009 letter which is attached hereto and incorporated herein as Exhibit "S." 64. Spinosa e-mailed the "lock letter" to Rothstein earlier that day with a message stating that at Rothstein's "request and instructions, this account [RRA's trust account] has been irrevocably locked as to destination of all disbursements [which was Razorback's account, also at TD Bank]. The letter confirming same is attached. Please do not deposit any funds into this account that are not soley (sic) to be directed to the entity set forth in the irrevocable instruction." A copy of the October 1, 2009 email from Spinosa is attached hereto and incorporated herein as Exhibit "T." 65. Also on October 1, 2009, Razorback received copies of two wire transfers from Preve, a Banyon USVI representative, demonstrating that a total of $66,700,000.00 (the full settlement funding being purchased) had been received by RRA in its trust account with TD Bank. A copy of the October 1, 2009 wire transfers is attached hereto and incorporated herein as Composite Exhibit "U." 66. On the same day, Preve forwarded Razorback an email from Rothstein providing: (1) confirmation of Preve's purported $8,000,000.00 wire into RRA's trust account; and (2) that no disbursement on the deal would be made until he received the $32,000,000.00 from Page 20 of 147 CONRAD 6.

A copy of the October 1, 2009 email from Rothstein is attached hereto and incorporated herein as Exhibit "V." 67. On October 3, 2009, Razorback attempted to contact Spinosa to verify the details of the lock letter. The Razorback representative was unable to reach Spinosa but did receive confirmation from Spinosa's assistant that she prepared the lock letter and that Spinosa signed it. 68. On October 7, 2009, Razorback received an email from Preve which contained an on-line screen shot of an RRA trust account at TD Bank indicating a balance of S66,700,000.00. A copy of the on-line screen shot of the TD Bank account is attached hereto and incorporated herein as Exhibit "W." 69. Finally, on October 22, 2009, Mr. Szafranski met again with Rothstein and verified that all of the putative plaintiffs in the Razorback deals received their disbursements by reviewing TD Bank's on-line banking wcbsite. A copy of Mr. Szafranski October 22, 2009 confirming email is attached hereto and incorporated herein as Exhibit "X." 70. In reliance on the foregoing, Razorback transferred the sum of $32,000,000.00 to RRA's trust account. 3. D3 Capital Club, LLC 71. D3 was formed October 4, 2009 for purposes of investing in a $30,000,000.00 RRA structured settlement, payable in six equal monthly installments of $5,000,000.00, offered in exchange for $18,000,000.00. See Confidential Settlement Agreements and Releases which is attached hereto and incorporated herein as Composite Exhibit "Y." Page 21 of 147 CONRAD & SCHERER. LLP. 633 SOUTH FE0ERAL HIGHWAY, FT.

A D3 representative, who was also a representative of Razorback's management team, had knowledge of and relied upon the contacts and representations made by TD Bank in connection with the Razorback transaction. 73. On or about October 15, 2009, as part of its due diligence, D3 obtained a copy of a ID Bank "lock letter" signed by Spinosa stating the following: Pursuant to your written instructions to us of October 14, 2009, please be advised that all funds contained in the above referenced account shall only be distributed upon your or Stuart Rosenfeldt's instruction and shall only be distributed to D3 Capital Club, LLC, 2833 NE 35th Coup, Fort Lauderdale, FL, 33308, TD Bank NA, Account # 4245728568.

On October 15, 2009, Spinosa signed another letter enclosing a copy of RRA's trust account hank statement showing a balance in excess of $30,000,000.00. See October 15, 2009 letter attached hereto and incorporated herein as Composite Exhibit "AA." 75. Furthermore, on October 15, 2009, Kerstetter drafted a letter to RRA enclosing a copy of RRA's trust account bank statement for the D3 settlement showing a balance in excess of $30,000,000.00. This letter was personally delivered by Kerstetter to Rothstein in a D3 representative's presence while inside the TD Bank Fort Lauderdale branch. See October 15, 2009 letter attached hereto and incorporated herein as Exhibit "AA-1." Later that day, Kerstetter met again with that same D3 representative at a location outside of the bank in order to sign the paperwork to open a D3 account at TD Bank.

On October 16, 2009 and again on October 19, 2009, a D3 representative sent emails to Spinosa and Kerstetter advising that D3 had opened its account for purposes of doing business with RRA and asked about the mechanics of the irrevocable lock letter that D3 had with RRA account number 4246051629. A copy of the October 16, 2009 and October 19, 2009 emails are attached hereto and incorporated herein as Composite Exhibit "BB." 77. Spinosa responded to the October 19, 2009 email with a phone call to the D3 representative. During the conversation, the lock letter was acknowledged by Spinosa who declined to provide any further details about the Principal Conspirators' accounts. 78. Finally, on October 19, 2009, Mr. Szafranski met with Rothstein and verified that the sum of $30,000,000.00 was wired from the putative defendant into the RRA trust account ending x-1629.

BFMC Investment, LLC 80. BFMC was formed in November 1998 to fund investment opportunities. 81. On September 28 2009, BFMC principal, Barry Florescue ("Florescue") met socially with Andrew Barnett ("Barnett"), Director of Corporate Development for RRA. 82. During this meeting, Barnett described his role at RRA and invited Florescue to meet Rothstein later that week to discuss a lucrative investment opportunity. Florescue was aware of Rothstein given Rothstein's prominence in the Fort Lauderdale business and social community, and a meeting was scheduled at RRA on September 30, 2009. Page 23 of 147 CONRAD & SCHERER. LLP, 633 SOUTH FEDERAL HIGHWAY, FT. LAUDERDALE. FL 33301. TEL EFTA01092201 Razorback Funding, LLC, et at, v. TD Bank N.A., et al.. Complaint 83. Florescue and his employee, Mark Seigel ("Seigel"), arrived in RRA's offices and were initially introduced to Boden. Coincidentally, Boden had, many years earlier, worked as a junior staff member at Florescue's corporate counsel and had actively worked on one of Florescues previous financing transactions. 84. After several minutes, Boden and Barnett led Florescue and Seigel into Rothstcin's private office. 85. After introductions, Rothstein described an investment opportunity involving purchasing various structured settlements explaining as follows: a. RRA is a nationally recognized firm representing whistleblowers in whistleblower lawsuits against employers. RRA has specific expertise in a specific type of litigation called Qui Tam litigation, in which the defendant is also accused of defrauding the United States government. RRA became a magnet for Qui Tam cases following its success as co-counsel in a 2008 Eli Lilly Qui Tam case, which resulted in a SI billion plus settlement. b. RRA was currently representing whisticblowcr plaintiffs inside a Fortune 500 company that had allegedly defrauded the United States government. Citing confidentiality, Rothstein could not share the name of the defendant, but he described it as a large food conglomerate that had substituted cheaper ingredients into food supplies sold to the government under national contracts. Rothstein was rounding up dozens of whistleblowers inside the company who had been threatened by senior management to remain silent regarding the company's fraud. Page 24 of 147 CONRAD 6 SCHERER, LLP, 633 SOUTH FEDERAL HIGHWAY. FT. LAUDERDALE, FL 33301, TEL EFTA01092202 Razorback Funding, LLC, et al., v. TD Bank N.A., et Complaint c. RRA had negotiated numerous settlements for $1,400,000.00 for various whistleblower clients, but defendant insisted on paying the settlements out over four months. The plaintiffs wanted their cash up front. d. Rothstein explained that the putative plaintiffs were willing to take a large discount up front because: (i) they had a high degree of concern over whether defendant would attempt to prevent them from receiving payments after settling and, (ii) Rothstein explained in detail a legal concept called "privity" — plaintiff was "in privity" with the defendant which subjected their settlement to reversal by the federal government. Rothstein represented that a third party buyer of the settlement rights would not be subject to such reversal as the third party was not "in privity with the defendant. e. The settlement documents were drafted and ready to be settled, but Rothstein needed to find an investor to fund the settlement. Rothstein explained that such a transaction was legal, because the settlement agreement had no "anti-assignment rights", but that any third party investor couldn't be given any details about the parties involved in the settlement, because it was by nature highly confidential and did contain strong confidentiality provisions. f. Due to the fact that a "funder" could not be given any information about the case, the defendant, or the plaintiff, and given the fact that Rothstein needed a high degree of confidentiality about even the existence of the funding arrangement (in order to prevent defendants from explicitly prohibiting this type of arrangement going forward), Rothstein could only engage in such transaction with local friends with whom he trusted. g. RRA's clients were willing to accept $800,000.00 up front in exchange for their rights to the $1,400,000.00 settlement, payable over 4 months. Page 25 of 147 CONRAD & SCHERER. LLP. 633 SOUTH FEDERAL HIGHWAY, FT. LAUDERDALE, FL 33301, TEL. EFTA01092203 Razorback Funding LLC, et al., v. TD Bank N.A., e aL. Complaint h. Rothstein could not personally fund the structured settlements because it was illegal for him or his firm to profit from a structured settlement in which he represented the plaintiff. However, it was in his firm's interest to find a funder so that the firm could settle the case and get paid its contingency fee. i. Rothstein remarked that the transaction would be substantiated and verified, that he would provide evidence of the settlement in his office, and that he would get on the phone with Spinosa of TD Bank to confirm that the putative defendant's funds had been wired into a Florida Bar trust account with instructions to only release the funds in that account to the specified funder. 86. Upon concluding the meeting, Barnett walked Florescue and Seigel out to the elevator. During a debrief, Barnett revealed that the defendant was Dole Foods, which had knowingly supplied the U.S. Government with impure orange juice in a major juice contract that called for 100% pure orange juice. Barnett said that Rothstein had offered to sign a corporate and personal guaranty as a further inducement to make the investment. 87. Between September 30, 2009 and October 15, 2009, BFMC worked with their counsel and Boden on various transaction documents necessary to close the deal. 88. During the first week of October 2009, Florescue telephoned Spinosa, who Florescue knew professionally based on various banking activities previously engaged in, to inquire about Rothstein. Spinosa said that he could not talk about Rothstein without Rothstein's consent. 89. In early October, 2009, Boden finalized the deal documents for BFMC's investment in three identical RRA settlements: (I) a 51,400,000.00 structured settlement, Page 26 of 147 CONRAD 6 SCHERER.

Complaint payable in four equal monthly installments, offered in exchange for a lump sum payment of $800,000.00; (2) a second S1,400,000.00 structured settlement, payable in four equal monthly installments, offered in exchange for a lump sum payment of $800,000.00; and (3) a third $1,400,000.00 structured settlement, payable in four equal monthly installments, offered in exchange for a lump sum payment of $800,000.00. Sec correspondence from David Boden which is attached hereto and incorporated herein as Exhibit "DD." 90. BFMC's explicit understanding from Boden and Rothstein was that the putative defendant's funds were to be held in RRA's trust account and could only be released directly to BFMC's account pursuant to an irrevocable "lock letter." 91. On or about October 15, 2009, as part of its due diligence, BFMC obtained a copy of a TD Bank "lock letter" signed by Spinosa stating that: [pjursuant to your written instructions to us of October 14, 2009, please be advised that all funds contained in the above referenced account shall only be distributed upon your or Stuart Rosenfeldt's instruction and shall only be distributed to BB&T (FICA: Colonial Bank), Pompano Beach Branch # 32083, , ABA# 062001319, for further credit to: BFMC Investmeniliccount # 8050674491.

Later that day, and in reliance on the foregoing, BFMC wired $2,400,000.00 to RRA's TD Bank account number 6860420923. Page 27 of 147 CONRAD & SCHERER. LLP, 633 SOUTH FEDERAL HIGHWAY, FT. LAUDERDALE. FL 33301. TEL EFTA01092205 Razorback Funding LLC, et al., v. TD Bank N.A., el at. Complaint Implosion of Rothstein's Ponzi Scheme 93. In October 2009, the Ponzi scheme reached critical mass. October was a huge month for investor settlement redemptions and Rothstein knew that the influx of new investor capital could not satisfy all previous investor obligations. Sensing that the end was near, Rothstein began planning his escape. 94. On October 17, 2009, Rothstein sent a firm-wide e-mail at RRA asking for help to determine whether a "client" who is facing a multitude of criminal charges in the United States-- including fraud, money laundering and embezzlement--could be extradited to the United States or Israel from abroad after renouncing his United States citizenship. Rothstein's email asked for countries which did not have extradition treaties with the United States or brads and concluded by stating that Itihis client is related to a very powerful client of ours and so time is of the essence. Lets rock and roll... there is a very large fee attached to this case. Thanks Love ya Scott." See Sun-Sentinel article dated November 16, 2009 referencing the October 17, 2009 email which is attached hereto and incorporated herein as Exhibit "FF." Suffice it to say, Rothstein was the purported "client" and this is the first clear written indication that he knew his fate. 95. By the end of October 2009, Rothstein and RRA began to default on the investor's structured payments and the Ponzi scheme began to unravel. 96. On October 26, 2009, Richard Pearson, who had invested 518,000,000.00 in the Ponzi scheme, confronted Rothstein who was sitting with Spinosa inside of Bova restaurant. Pearson, in Spinosa's presence, demanded to know why he had not received two scheduled 5 Not coincidentally Morocco, Rothstein's destination on October 27, 2009, was one of the countries that does not have an extradition treaty with either the United States or Israel Page 28 of 147 CONRAD 6 SCHERER.

Rothstein attempted to diffuse the situation leaving Spinosa visibly shaken. 97. Shortly thereafter, Rothstein proceeded to methodically drain the TD Bank RRA accounts dry, depleting virtually all of the remaining investors' money as well as the money of many of the firms' clients. 98. On October 27, 2009, Rothstein secretly boarded a private G-5 jet destined for Morocco, but not before completing a $16,000,000.00 wire transfer to a Moroccan bank. 99. By October 30, 2009, investors began to scramble desperately attempting to reach Rothstein for answers. Unbeknownst to them Rothstein was already gone, along with their investments, as the Ponzi scheme finally buckled under the pressure of obligations due. Devastating Fallout 100. The velocity at which the Ponzi scheme cratered sent a sonic boom felt throughout the financial and legal world. 101. Reeling from its shameful missteps in connection with the Rothstein scandal, an emergency receiver was appointed for RRA on November 4, 2009 for the purpose of winding down its operations. 102. As the dust begins to settle, critical details have emerged revealing the scope and magnitude of this the nefarious scheme. By way of example Plaintiffs have discovered that: a. the entirety of Plaintiffs' more than $100,000,000.00 investment was gone; b. plaintiffs' "lock letter" accounts were never funded with the purported settlement money and contained only a nominal deposit of S100.00; Page 29 of 147 CONRAD 6 SCHERER.

TD Bank N.A., ei Complaint c. even after Rothstein's October 27, 2009 departure to Morocco, millions of dollars continued to flow out of RRA accounts from the Fort Lauderdale TD Bank accounts, indicative of an insider(s) maintaining operations of the Ponzi scheme; d. in October 2009 alone $235,000,000.00 in credits and $232,000,000.00 in debits was transacted through the RRA accounts at TD Bank; e. the $8,000,000.00 wire transfer confirmation used by Preve and Rothstein to induce Razorback's $32,000,000.00 payment was in fact never received by RRA or TD Bank; f. on July 27, 2009 Rothstein transferred a $407,750.00 assessed value property to Villegas for "love and affection" and $100.00. Notwithstanding owning the property free and clear, Villegas who earned $250,000.00 a year decided to pull $100,000.00 out of the property days prior to the IRS filing of a forfeiture in rem complaint against the property; g. on November 1, 2009, Mel Lipschitz of DE Securities whose group invested nearly $100,000,000.00 into the Ponzi scheme, advised a group of investor victims that he personally sat with Spinosa at TD Bank and verified investment account balances; h. sometime in the Spring or Summer of 2009, Ted Morse was personally provided with a written account balance statement by Caretsky at TD Bank; and Page 30 of 147 CONRAD S SCHERER, LLp, 633 SOUTH FEDERAL HIGHWAY. FT. LAUDERDALE, FL 33301, TEL. EFTA01092208 Razorback Funding LLC, et al., v. TD Bank N.A., a al.. Complaint i. TD Bank either knew or certainly should have known of the criminality and/or gross irregularities of RRA's operations. Alternatively, TD Bank's actions and/or omissions in not conducting any due diligence inquiry into RRA's suspicious activities, unorthodox settlement structures, lack of supporting document and vigilant (if not obsessive) control over account access was either deliberate or reckless. 103. A Ponzi scheme cannot be operated without insider help. Plaintiffs believe that additional members of RRA, including its non-lawyer investigators, were used by Rothstein to perpetuate, promote and facilitate the Ponzi scheme. The details of these individuals or entities involvement and participation is presently unknown but further allegations and counts will be added as discovery is conducted and information concerning the complicity of these individuals or entities is confinned. Jurisdiction and Venue 104. This court has jurisdiction over this matter as an action for damages in excess of $100,000,000.00 exclusive of attorneys' fees, costs and interest. 105.
