TEL Offshore Trust § § § § § in the Probate Court No. 1 of Travis NO. C-1-PB-14-001245 In Re: § In the Probate Court No. 1 § § of § TEL Offshore Trust § Travis County, Texas ATTORNEY AD LITEM’S MOTION TO COMPEL CORPORATE TRUSTEE TO PROVIDE INFORMATION ABOUT UNIT HOLDERS Glenn M. Karisch, Attorney Ad Litem (“Ad Litem”) for the unit holders of the TEL Offshore Trust (“Trust”) who were served by publication and did not answer or appear (“AAL Parties”), moves to compel the Corporate Trustee, Bank of New York Mellon Trust Co., N.A. (“BNYM” or “Trustee”) to answer Ad Litem’s interrogatory seeking the identity of the unit holders of the Trust as follows. At the BNYM’s request, the Court appointed Ad Litem to represent the AAL Parties. Although BNYM requested his appointment, it has repeatedly claimed that Ad Litem lacks authority to represent the AAL Parties. And it has moved for summary judgment based on an alleged lack of standing, contending that Ad Litem cannot prove when any of the AAL Parties owned units and were therefore owed a fiduciary duty. It has even criticized Ad Litem for not answering the Corporate Trustee’s interrogatory seeking the identity of the AAL Parties. See Corporate Trustee of the TEL Offshore Trust’s Motion for Traditional and No-Evidence Partial Summary Judgment on the Issue of Standing at p. 9-10. On October 14, 2016 Ad Litem served his second set of interrogatories on BNYM. One of these asked for information about persons that have owned units in the Trust since 1413457 January 1, 2008. Although BNYM possesses this information, through its stock transfer agent, it refused to provide it, incorrectly claiming that it was equally available to Ad Litem. The interrogatory and the Trustee’s response are reprinted below: INTERROGATORY NO. 4: Identify each person who held one or more of the units of the Trust at any time starting from January 1, 2008 and ending at the present, and for each state: (a) the date(s) when the person acquired a unit or units of the Trust; (b) the number of units acquired; (c) the date(s) on which the person sold or otherwise disposed of any unit or unit of the Trust; and (d) whether or not the person currently holds a unit or units of the Trust. ANSWER: The Corporate Trustee objects to this interrogatory because this information is as readily available to the Attorney Ad Litem as to the Corporate Trustee. Subject to the foregoing objection and without waiver of same, as of July 11, 2014, the list of known Record Holders is attached as Exhibit A. As of July 11, 2014, the list of known Non Objecting Beneficial Owners (NOBOs) is attached as Exhibit B. Additionally, the list of known 2 1413457 new unit holders that purchased units between the time period July 12, 2014 through July 15, 2016 is attached as Exhibit C. While the Corporate Trustee knows that there were 802 Objecting Beneficial Owners (OBOs), the Corporate Trustee does not have access to their names or addresses. There are a total of 4,751,510 shares or units in the Trust as of July 11, 2014. The 802 OBOs have 612,064 shares. The OBOs and NOBOs together have 3,572,516 shares, which is reflected on page 12 of Exhibit A for “CEDE & CO (Fast Account).” Subtracting out the OBOs’ shares, leaves 2,960,452 shares for the NOBOs as of July 11, 2014. Subtracting the OBOs and NOBOs shares from the total shares leaves 1,178,994 shares for the Registered Owners as of July 11, 2014. Except as stated herein, the Corporate Trustee does not otherwise know the answer to this interrogatory. A copy of BNYM’s answer to this interrogatory is attached as Exhibit A. The exhibits to its answers do not show when the AAL Parties acquired their units. BNYM claims that the information about unit holders is equally available to the Ad Litem as it is to BNYM. But that is clearly not the case. Ad Litem has no means of determining who owned units at any particular time and whether those persons are among the AAL Parties. In contrast, BNYM has the capacity to do that, through its stock transfer agent, American Stock Transfer & Trust Company (“ASTT”). BNYM attached as Exhibit A to its interrogatory answers a report generated by ASTT showing the 3 1413457 registered owners as of July 2, 2014 and the number of units they hold. Exhibit C to the interrogatory answers is another report generated by ASTT, showing the persons who bought units after July 2, 2014, with the date of purchase and the number of units. Thus, ASTT can generate reports showing the unit owners as of any particular date and the amount of units owned. BNYM has the ability to obtain this information from ASTT; Ad Litem does not. Indeed, BNYM had to have had the ability to know who held units and the amount of units held at any particular time, for the purpose of making distributions (when they were made) and sending notices. In fact, BNYM has sought Court permission to use money from the segregated fund to pay ASTT. The Court has granted one of those motions. Another motion remains pending. BNYM seeks summary judgment against Ad Litem’s claims because he cannot identify when the AAL Parties acquired their units. Yet it simultaneously refuses to answer an interrogatory that would allow Ad Litem to obtain that information. Ad Litem does not believe that it is necessary to show that any of the AAL Parties owned units during that time. But he is entitled to the information with which to do so. Accordingly, the Court should compel BNYM to fully answer interrogatory number 4, including obtaining the information from ASTT to the extent necessary.1 The Court should grant Ad Litem such other and further relief, both at law and in equity, to which he may be justly entitled. 1 Ad Litem will not object to the payment from the segregated fund of a reasonable fee for ASTT’s services to obtain this information. 4 1413457 Respectfully submitted, SCOTT DOUGLASS & McCONNICO LLP 303 Colorado Street, Suite 2400 Austin, Texas 78701 (512) 495-6300 Telephone (512) 495-6399 Facsimile By: /s/ Daniel C.

  • East Sussex Record Office Report of the County Archivist April 2012 to March 2014
    eastsussex.gov.uk East Sussex Record Office Report of the County Archivist April 2012 to March 2014 2014/15: 458 Introduction The period covered by this annual report – the financial years 2012-2014 – has probably been the most momentous in ESRO’s history as it saw the completion of the project to build and open The Keep. It marked the culmination of seven years’ work by the project partners, East Sussex County Council, Brighton & Hove City Council and The University of Sussex to re-house their archives and other historical resources in a state-of-the-art building, both to ensure their permanent preservation and to increase and broaden access to this unique and irreplaceable material. Practical completion was achieved on 17 June 2013 when the building was handed over by the contractors, Kier. We immediately began to move ESRO material into The Keep, which was not as easy as it sounds – the work required to prepare the archives for transfer and then to move them is described elsewhere in this report. Staff worked long, hard hours preparing and supervising the ESRO removals. It was a remarkable feat and as a result all ESRO’s archives have been listed to at least collection level, packaged and shelved appropriately in a single building and can be tracked around it via the inventory management (barcoding) system. The service we now offer is not merely ESRO in a new building, but has been transformed into a fully integrated partnership, working not just to better but rather transcend what we previously provided. Behind the scenes each partner continues to maintain their individual collections in their separate databases but from the user’s point of view the service is seamless: the online catalogue and ordering system combine information from the three databases and presents them as a single resource on The Keep’s new website, www.thekeep.

  • Wiltshire Recipients of the Victoria Cross
    Wiltshire Recipients Of the Victoria Cross Addison, William Robert Fountains (VC) - William Addison was born on the 18th September 1883 in Cranbrook, Kent. He attended the Sarum College and was ordained 12 1913 and became curate at St. Edmund’s Church, Salisbury (this is now a combined parish with St. Thomas). He served as a Chaplain 4th Class with the Army Chaplains Division of the British Army during World War I. Whilst serving in Mesopotamia in 1916 on the 9th April, he carried a wounded man to the cover of a trench, and assisted several others to the same cover, after binding up their wounds under heavy rifle and machine gun fire. In addition to these unaided efforts, by his splendid example and utter disregard of personal danger, he encouraged the stretcher-bearers to go forward under heavy fire and collect the wounded. For this act of bravery William was awarded the VC. He was Gazetted on 26 September 1916. He was invested with his Victoria Cross by King George V at Buckingham Palace on the 3rd August 1917. After the war Addison continued as an army chaplain and served at Malta, Khartoum and Shanghai and at army bases in England. He was Senior Chaplain to the Forces from 1934 to 1938 when he left the army and became a parish priest. He was Rector of Coltishall with Great Hautbois in Norfolk from 1938 to 1958. However, on the outbreak of World War II he returned to the army and again served as Senior Chaplain to the Forces and deputy assistant chaplain-general in South Wales.

  • Provincial Grand Lodge of Hampshire and Isle of Wight
    PROVINCIAL GRAND LODGE OF HAMPSHIRE AND ISLE OF WIGHT DINNER HELD TO COMMEMORATE HAMPSHIRE AND ISLE OF WIGHT FREEMASONS AWARDED THE VICTORIA CROSS DURING WORLD WAR I The Provincial Grand Master, Mike Wilks, recently hosted a dinner at the Royal Green Jacket’s Museum in Winchester to commemorate those Hampshire and Isle of Wight Freemasons who were awarded the Victoria Cross during World War I. Guests included The Lords Lieutenant of Hampshire and of the Isle of Wight, the ruling Masters of the Lodges of which the recipients were members, ruling Masters of other Military Lodges and members of the Provincial Executive. The Recipients Harry Daniels, born 1884, died 1953 Aldershot Camp Lodge No. 1331. Harry Daniels was the 13th child of 16 born to a baker in Wymondham, Norfolk. He joined the army at a young age and served abroad in India. He was 30 years old, and a Company Sergeant-Major in the 2nd Battalion of The Rifle Brigade (Prince Consort's Own), British Army during the First World War when the following deed took place for which he was awarded the VC. On 12 March 1915 at Neuve Chapelle, France, his unit was ordered into an advance on the German trenches across no-man's land which was covered by machine guns and strewn with barbed wire. Daniels and another man, Cecil Reginald Noble, voluntarily rushed in front with cutters and attacked the wires. They were both wounded at once, Noble dying later of his wounds. For further activities on the Western Front he was awarded the Military Cross and later achieved the rank of lieutenant colonel.
