Delandmeter was involved in nearly every major decision regarding Luxalpha from the fund’s<br />
inception through its collapse.<br />
On February 5, 2004, Delandmeter along with UBS SA established Luxalpha’s articles of<br />
incorporation. (Pergament Decl. Ex. 7 at 1.) That same day, Delandmeter executed a resolution<br />
that authorized Luxalpha’s relationship with Madoff in <strong>New</strong> <strong>York</strong> and the delegation of asset<br />
management and custodial authority to BLMIS. (Pergament Decl. Ex. 8 at 2–4; see Pergament<br />
Decl. Ex. 9 at 7–9, 18–21.) He and the Moving Luxalpha Director Defendants then executed<br />
resolutions that approved and amended sales prospectuses which concealed Madoff’s role as<br />
actual custodian and asset manager. (Pergament Decl. Exs. 8 at 2; 12; see, e.g., Pergament Decl.<br />
Ex. 10.) Similarly, Delandmeter approved Luxalpha’s financial statements despite knowing that<br />
these documents did not disclose Madoff’s role as custodian and asset manager. (See Pergament<br />
Decl. Ex. 71; see, e.g., Pergament Decl. Ex. 47.)<br />
Delandmeter also routinely executed board resolutions that protected and preserved the<br />
Luxalpha-BLMIS relationship. For example, Delandmeter signed a June 20, 2006 report<br />
confirming that Luxalpha was “in conformity with the determined investment policy” and “the<br />
investment restrictions as mentioned in the prospectus.” (Pergament Decl. Ex. 14.) On<br />
numerous occasions, Delandmeter also executed quarterly board resolutions stating that<br />
Luxalpha’s Board “noted that the monitoring of the management of the various risks to which<br />
the SICAV is exposed has been performed and has not signaled significant irregularities over the<br />
period.” (Pergament Decl. Exs. 73-81.)<br />
Delandmeter also executed agreements on behalf of Luxalpha with UBS and Access<br />
entities that authorized Luxalpha to pay the management and administrative fees to these<br />
