Request to convene the audit committee to examine indemnification and litigation funding
On 14 October 2026, the Supervisor wrote to Mr Rani Gritzershtein, chair of the audit committee of Sure-Tech Management Ltd., requesting a committee meeting and an urgent review, with the internal auditor, of indemnification undertakings and funding for the general partner's legal expenses.
The Supervisor argued that the partnership agreement alone should not be treated as conferring an ongoing entitlement to funding for the general partner's expenses, and that the validity of the indemnification undertakings and renewal of the required approvals should be examined. He set out his position that the initial approval period had ended no later than 26 April 2026. The requested review covers expenses and commitments from the commencement of the relevant proceedings, not only payments made after that date.
He requested the actual signed indemnification undertakings, their terms, the decisions granting and renewing them and the relevant minutes, together with a complete schedule of charges for each proceeding and expert opinion. The requested records include fee agreements, invoices, payments and outstanding commitments, distinguishing supplier payments, reimbursements to the general partner, insurance funding, deductibles and amounts borne by the partnership.
He also requested that each expense be matched to the relevant event and claimed source of entitlement, with examination of coverage, exclusions, caps and reasonableness, distinguishing the general partner's defence, officers' defence, the partnership's own expenses and proceedings initiated by the general partner. The committee was asked to examine approvals and personal interests, invite the Supervisor and internal auditor to the discussion, and obtain independent legal examination if required.
