baguette diamonds with a total weight of .90 cts. flanking each side. The
center stone bears the certificate No. 8376741 from the Gemological Institute

from Bernard L. Madoff and wife, Ruth, will be sold during a live and an online
auction in New York City on November 13, 2010. Organized by the United States
Marshals Service, the property was forfeited and seized in connection with the

Office in the Southern District of New York. Proceeds will be deposited into
the United States Department of Justice Asset Forfeiture Fund to compensate the
victims of this multi-billion dollar fraud.
