In terms of the definition of an affiliate itself, The Capital Trust(s) is/are an affiliate(s) of JPM. Even the affiliate definition used in JPM, the Capital Trust is considered an affiliate. I have no doubt from looking at both definitions we are an affiliate(s) of JPM. It comes down to what is JPM going to do about it?

instruction letter (the “Instruction Letter”) to be submitted to the claims agent retained
in the Chapter 11 Cases: Epiq Systems Inc. (the “Claims Agent”), and deemed fully
satisfied because it had been previously fully satisfied pursuant to the Collateral
Disposition Agreement dated March 16, 2010 [ECF No. 7619] (as amended and
supplemented from time to time, the “CDA”). Claim Nos. 66474, 66452, 66455,

For the avoidance of doubt, claims relating to the LBSF Action are not Unaffected
Matters. Lehman reserves all objections and defenses to the Unaffected Matters."

"Who are affiliates? "Under Rule 405 of the Securities Act,... whether through the ownership of voting securities, by contract, or otherwise."

*** 08-13555-jmp Doc 24851 Filed 02/01/12 Entered 02/01/12 16:18:12 Main Document ***

"Movants posited that
“affiliates,” especially in the context of a parent level guaranty, must mean corporations who
share controlling ownership and not contractual service advisor or trustee relationships."

***

Under Rule 405 of the Securities Act, an "affiliate" of or person "affiliated" with a specified person shall mean a person that directly, or indirectly through one or more intermediaries, controls or is controlled by, or is under common control with, the person specified.
An individual's status as an affiliate is a fact-specific inquiry which must be determined by considering all relevant facts in accordance with Rule 405. The rule provides that the term "control" (including the terms "controlling," "controlled by" and "under common control with") means the possession, direct or indirect, of the power to direct or cause the direction of management and the policies of a person, whether through the ownership of voting securities, by contract, or otherwise. The SEC has stated that an individual's status as a director, officer, or 10% shareholder is one fact which must be taken into consideration in determining affiliate status (See American Standard, October 11, 1972). In addition, under Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act, every person who is directly or indirectly the owner of more than 10 percent of any class of any equity security that is registered under the Exchange Act, or who is a director or an officer of the issuer of such security, must file statements setting forth the amount of all equity securities of such issuer of which the filing person is a beneficial owner. These individuals usually are considered affiliates."
