that the order would not prevent Defendants' attempts to enforce and recognize the judgment
outside ofthe United States: "The judge cannot order and require something that is outside of
United States territory, as such. Therefore, that injunction is completely, uh, it's unenforceable,

basis, largely as a means of attaining a favorable settlement at an early stage. Various laws and
procedures within and outside the United States may permit attachment of Chevron's assets prior
to successful recognition of the Ecuadorian judgment."

Chevron, as described in this Amended Complaint, has already had a lasting and irreparable
effect on Chevron. The RICO Defendants' false and misleading statements have been relied on
by the U.S. courts, U.S. state and federal government agencies, Chevron's shareholders,
investors, analysts, the media, and by the Lago Agrio court by means of its acceptance of
Defendants' and Cabrera's misrepresentations and omissions and its failure to take meaningful
