Disclaimers and Suggested References: The outline
that follows provides a general overview of retiree
medical benefit VEBAs, with specific focus on the
VEBAs recently proposed by the Big Three U.S.
automakers. The author is by no means an expert on
medical benefit plans or VEBAs. Nor can the author
claim special insight into any aspect of the Big Three
VEBAs. The information in this outline is gleaned
entirely from public sources. For two very practical
references on retiree medical and VEBAs see: (1) the
ABA-JCEB teleconference “Shifting Retiree Health
Benefits from Employers to VEBAs” (December 6,
2007—available in archived teleconf format or CD), in
which Nell Hennessey, Douglas Greenfield, Karen
Handorf and Vicki Hood do a terrific job describing the
background on union retiree medical and the Big Three
VEBAs and (2) Jones Day Commentary—Who Killed
Yard-Man (Apr. 2007), a Jones Day client newsletter

o U.S: Authorities have brought 26 actions against individuals in 2008 andtwo in the first two months of 2009. (see above).
7. Collateral FCPA-related Civil Litigation. The FCPA does not contain a privateright of action. Nonetheless, FCPA-related claims have increasingly become, atleast in part, the basis of a variety of civil litigation. Examples include:
o Shareholder Class Actions. E.g., Glazer Capital Mgmt., LP v. Magistri,549 F.3d 736 (9th Cir. 2008); In re Nature's Sunshine Prods. Sec. Litig.,486 F.Supp.2d 1301 (D. Utah 2007); In re UTStarcom, Inc. Sec. Litig.,2008 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 60336 (N.D. Cal. 2008).
o Shareholders' Derivative Actions. E.g., City of Harper WoodsEmployees' Ret. Sys. ex rel. BAE Sys. PLC v. Olver, 577 F.Supp.2d 124(D.D.C. 2008); Hawaii Structural Ironworkers Pension Trust Fund ex rel.Alcoa, Inc. v. Belda, 2008 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 52888 (W.D. Pa. 2008).
o Foreign Governments as Plaintiffs. E.g., Complaint, Republic of Iraq v.ABB AG, No. 1:08-cv-05951 (S.D.N.Y. June 27, 2008); Complaint,Aluminum Bahrain B.S.C. v. Alcoa, Inc., No. 2:05-mc-02025 (W.D. Pa.Feb. 27, 2008).
o Commercial Litigation. E.g., Castellanos v. Pfizer, Inc., 2008 U.S. Dist.LEXIS 42586 (S.D. Fla. 2008); Hijazi Med. Supplies v. AGA Med. Corp.,2008 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 10481 (D. Minn. 2008).
8. Asset Recovery Actions
o On January 8, 2009, the U.S. DoJ filed a forfeiture action againstSingapore accounts worth nearly $3 million that are alleged to be theproceeds of a wide-ranging conspiracy to bribe public officials inBangladesh and their relatives. The forfeiture complaint relates primarilyto alleged bribes, paid in U.S. dollars, to Arafat "Koko" Rahman (son offormer Bangladeshi prime minister) in connection with public worksprojects awarded by the government of Bangladesh to Siemens AG andChina Harbor Engineering Company. The illicit funds cleared throughU.S. financial institutions before they were deposited in accounts inSingapore, thereby subjecting them to U.S. jurisdiction. U.S. anti-moneylaundering laws cover financial transactions that flow through the UnitedStates involving proceeds of offshore offenses, including bribery.
United States v. Zasz Trading and Consulting PTE Ltd, No. 1:09-cv-0021 (D.D.C.Jan.8, 2009), DoJ Litigation Release 09-020, January 9, 2009
o On January 28, 2009 the English Court of Appeals upheld a decision ofthe English High Court granting an order freezing the British assets ofGlenn Manterfield, a U.K. citizen and resident. The SEC sought theorder for purposes of satisfying disgorgement relief resulting from anSEC enforcement action (for securities fraud, not bribery). The Court of
Appeals permitted the freezing of assets related to potentialdisgorgement relief but not to the civil penalty imposed by the SEC.

February 17, 2009 "Fulbright Briefing - White Collar Crime and InternationalTrade", Fulbright & Jaworski L.L.P.

diminishing the value of property belonging to him, including any and
allright, title, and interest in the proceeds from the sale of his Aspen,Colorado estate valued at approximately $23 million. Kozeny is fightingextradition from the Bahamas to the United States to face FCPA andrelated charges.
United States v. Kozeny, No. 05 Cr. 518 SAS (S.D.N.Y. Feb. 13, 2009)
9. Larger Fines - Examples include:
o Siemens' $800 million in penalties and disgorgement in connection withthe SEC and DoJ enforcement actions (2008) and Halliburton/KBR's$579 million in penalties and disgorgement (2009) are the two largestDoJ/SEC combined penalties in FCPA history. The third largest is BakerHughes (2007) for $44.1 million.
