This case is a judgment enforcement action. The Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit has determined that this Court has subject matter jurisdiction to hear this *369action. See d'Amico Dry Ltd. v. Primera Mar. (Hellas) Ltd., 886 F.3d 216 (2d Cir. 2018). The plaintiff, d'Amico Dry d.a.c. ("d'Amico Dry"), seeks to collect on a judgment of $1,766,278.54 plus attorney's fees, costs, and interest, obtained in England and entered on June 19, 2009 (the "English Judgment"), against defendant Primera Maritime (Hellas) Limited ("Primera").
d'Amico Dry contends that the Court should recognize the English Judgment and, first, enter a judgment against Primera; second, enter default judgments against nonappearing defendants Paul Coronis, Nicholas (or Nikolaos) Coronis, Primera Ocean Services S.A., and J.P.C. Investments S.A.; and, third, enter a judgment against the other appearing defendants1 as the successors-in-interest and/or alter egos of the Coronis family and Primera. This case is a saga of the almost ten-year-long efforts d'Amico Dry has made to enforce its English Judgment against Primera and the efforts Primera and its alter egos have made to evade enforcement of that judgment. The time for payment has come.
The Court held a nonjury trial. Having reviewed the evidence and assessed the credibility of the witnesses, the Court now makes the following findings of fact and reaches the following conclusions of law.
I. PROCEDURAL POSTURE
In September 2009, d'Amico Dry filed suit in this Court under this Court's admiralty jurisdiction to enforce a money judgment issued by the English High Court of Justice for breach of the Forward Freight Agreement ("FFA") between d'Amico Dry and Primera. Primera moved to dismiss this action for lack of subject matter jurisdiction.
The complex procedural history of this case is detailed in this Court's August 13, 2016 Opinion, D'Amico Dry Ltd. v. Primera Maritime (Hellas) Ltd., 201 F.Supp.3d 399, 401-02 (S.D.N.Y. 2016), and the Court of Appeals' opinion, d'Amico Dry Ltd., 886 F.3d at 219-22. This Court held a nonjury trial from May 9, 2016 through May 12, 2016, to determine whether this Court had subject matter jurisdiction and, if so, whether the FFA should be enforced against Primera and the other defendants. The Court of Appeals has now determined that this Court has subject matter jurisdiction. This Court now addresses the defendants' new argument that there is no personal jurisdiction over them, and then proceeds to determine whether the English Judgment should be enforced against Primera and the other defendants.

B. Primera/d'Amico Dry FFA
28. d'Amico Dry entered into the FFA with Primera on September 2, 2008, whereby Primera agreed to buy and d'Amico Dry agreed to sell freight futures for 45 days within the months of January, February and March 2009 respectively. Stipulated Fact ¶¶ 32, 34. Paul Coronis was responsible for trading FFAs at Primera. Tr. at 178.
29. At the time it entered into this and other FFA trades representing potentially tens of millions of dollars of debt for Primera, Primera had assets of approximately $132,000. Tr. at 205-06.
30. Starting around mid-September or October 2008, the freight market dropped *372precipitously. Tr. at 206-07. As of October 2008, Paul Coronis believed that Primera would lose substantially on its FFA trade with d'Amico Dry, as it already had and would in many of its other FFA trades. Tr. at 207. Paul Coronis knew as of that time that he would likely be unable to pay Primera's FFA obligations because others, especially Industrial Carriers, Inc., were not paying Primera. Tr. at 210.
31. In late 2008 and early 2009, Primera was unable to pay its FFA obligations. Tr. at 210.
32. As of January 30, 2009, Primera owed d'Amico Dry $795,963.20 under the FFA. Ex. 32. Despite d'Amico Dry's due demand for payment, Primera failed to remit payment to d'Amico Dry in respect of the January 2009 contract month. This was a breach of the FFA. Stipulated Fact ¶ 36.

37. d'Amico Dry commenced legal proceedings against Primera in the High Court of Justice Queen's Bench Division, Commercial Court under Claim No. 2009 Folio 218 in accordance with the FFA contract. Ex. 1.
38. On June 19, 2009, the High Court of Justice, by The Honorable Mr. Justice Flaux, entered a final, unappealable judgment against Primera in the sum of $1,766,278.54 (comprising the principal due of US $1,752,973.30 together with interest at the contractual rate accrued up to June 19, 2009). Ex. 1. Legal costs in the amount of GBP 17,000 which converts to $28,056.39, were also awarded. Stipulated Fact ¶ 41. Postjudgment interest at the rate of 8 percent per annum was also awarded in accordance with English law, as were future legal fees incurred to collect the judgment. Exs. 1, 104.
39. d'Amico Dry commenced this action against Primera on September 11, 2009, to recognize and enforce the English Judgment. Thereafter, in December 2010, d'Amico Dry moved to add the alleged alter ego defendants. On December 21, 2010, the Court granted d'Amico Dry's motion to amend the complaint and on December 23, 2010, d'Amico Dry filed the amended complaint and commenced efforts to serve the alter ego defendants. Dkt. Nos. 1, 44, 64.

C. The Coronis Family's Control of Primera and the Shipowning Companies
41. Primera was incorporated on June 22, 1990. Ex. 92 at 25-44. Nicholas Coronis was appointed President, Director and sole *373shareholder of Primera when it was incorporated. Ex. 92 at 1, 3, 23, 241-43.
42. Foreign ship management companies wishing to do business in Greece, like Primera, must seek authorization and comply with Greek Law 89. Tr. at 162-63. Submissions under Law 89 must be truthful and accurate. Tr. at 163.
43. Nicholas Coronis was the company representative for Primera under Greek Law 89. Ex. 92 at 133, 198.
44. On May 12, 1991, Nicholas Coronis, as the sole shareholder of Primera, appointed himself the sole Director, President, Vice-President, Treasurer and Secretary of Primera. Ex. 92 at 241-43.
45. Paul Coronis joined Primera in 2002 as a trainee. He became a Director of Primera in 2004 and maintained that position until November 15, 2008. Tr. at 171-72; Stipulated Fact ¶¶ 26-27. Paul Coronis was responsible for the commercial and legal desk at Primera. Tr. at 172, 178.
46. Although incorporated in Liberia, Primera had no offices or employees there. Instead, at all material times, Primera operated out of 6, Roupel Street, 145 64, Kifissia, Athens, Greece. Tr. at 161. The building which occupies this address (and which is used by all of the Coronis controlled entities) is owned by Paul Coronis, Jonathan Coronis and Chianna Coronis. Tr. at 161; Stipulated Fact ¶¶ 30-31.
47. As of the time Primera entered into the FFA with d'Amico Dry, the President, Treasurer and Secretary was Nicholas Coronis. He was also a Director. The other Director was Paul Coronis. The shareholders were Nicholas Coronis with some minor ownership by others. Ex. 92 at 129; Tr. at 177-80, 192.
48. At all material times, Nicholas or Paul Coronis controlled Primera and the other defendants. As Director and General Manager of Primera, Nicholas Coronis controlled the day-to-day affairs of Primera and the other Coronis family controlled shipowning and ship-operating companies as a single enterprise. Tr. at 172.
49. In 2008, the Coronis family used Primera to attempt to insulate their shipowning companies from liability. In 2008, the only vessels Primera managed were controlled by the Coronis family. Tr. at 173-74. In particular, at that time Primera managed the following vessels (as well as the accounts and records of each shipowning company): AQUADANCE (owned by Adalia), MOONDANCE II (owned by Moondance Maritime Enterprises S.A.), SEAGLASS II (owned by Nikka), and SUNRAY (owned by Sonic). Tr. at 173.
50. Sonic and Moondance were Marshall Islands corporations with their registered office c/o Trust Company Complex, Ajeltake Road, Ajeltake Island, Majuro. However, these corporations had no offices or employees in The Marshall Islands. Rather, other than possibly the ships' crews, each company had no employees but operated out of the Primera office at 6 Roupel Street, 145 64, Kifissia, Athens, Greece. Stipulated Fact ¶¶ 5, 6, 12; Ex. 17 at 4; Tr. at 158-60.
51. In 2008 and 2009, Paul Coronis was the sole Director of Sonic and Moondance. Tr. at 175. Paul Coronis was the person who ordered the incorporation of these companies. Tr. at 158-60. The Coronis family owned 70 percent of the shares of these companies and "silent partners" owned the remaining 30 percent. Tr. at 174-75. Paul Coronis authored the Law 89 letter for Sonic, and his father Nicholas Coronis authored the Law 89 letter for Moondance. Ex. 92 at 215A, 219.
52. Adalia was a Malta corporation with its registered office at 198 Old Bakery Street, Valletta, Malta. Stipulated Fact ¶ 4. Although it was a Maltese corporation, it had no offices or employees there. Rather, *374other than possibly a ship's crew, it had no employees but operated out of the Primera office at 6 Roupel Street, 145 64, Kifissia, Athens, Greece. Ex. 17 at 4; Tr. at 158-60. The Coronis family owned 70 percent of Adalia's shares. Tr. at 184. Paul Coronis authored the Law 89 letter for Adalia. Ex. 92 at 220A. No other information about Adalia was produced by the defendants. The entire production of Adalia corporate records consists of three pages. Sonic et al. Ex. K.
53. Before the Primera/d'Amico Dry FFA was executed on September 2, 2008, and before the market crash, on or before May 21, 2008, Paul Coronis helped obtain a $204,000,000 Facilities Agreement with HSH Nordbank (the "May 21, 2008 Facilities Agreement") on behalf of Sonic and Adalia (and others) as "Joint and Several Borrowers." Other Coronis controlled companies, Nikka, Mirage, Handy, Pasha, Movida, Element and Caldera were also Joint and Several Borrowers (collectively referred to as the "Joint and Several Borrowers"). Tr. at 184-87; Ex. 17 at Cover Page, 105-08; Stipulated Fact ¶ 42. At that time, the Coronis family owned approximately 70 percent of each of these entities. Tr. at 184. Notice under the Facilities Agreement for all the Joint and Several Borrowers was to be sent c/o Primera Maritime at 6 Roupel Street, 145 64 Kifissia, Athens, Greece. Ex. 17 at 80.
54. Movida, Mirage and Pasha were also all Marshall Islands companies, incorporated at the request of Paul Coronis. Tr. at 158-59. They had no offices or employees in The Marshall Islands and at all times operated through Primera. Tr. at 158-61. Insofar as Movida and Pasha are concerned, between 2008 and 2009, Paul Coronis and Nicholas Coronis were the President and Secretary/Treasurer, respectively, and were also the only Directors. Exs. 72-74, 81-82, 85. Insofar as Mirage is concerned, Nicholas Coronis was the President and Director, and Evangelos Bairactaris (Primera's counsel) was the Secretary/Treasurer and only other Director. Ex. 79. As with the other companies, the Coronis family owned 70 percent of the shares of these companies, with the remainder being owned by silent partners. Tr. at 173-74, 184.
55. As part of the Facilities Agreement, the existing vessels owned by the Joint and Several Borrowers were collateral for the loan. Each company guaranteed the performance of the other. Tr. at 187; Ex. 17 at Cover Page, 82; Ex. 19 at Cover Page; Stipulated Fact ¶ 44. In addition, funds from the Facilities Agreement were to be used to pay for the construction of five new bulk carriers. Tr. at 187. Sonic, for instance, built the 57,000-ton SUNRAY using some of the funds. Ex. 17 at 4; Tr. at 186.
56. Each of the Joint and Several Borrowers was required to post $500,000 in a retention account to secure the payment of the loan. Tr. at 187.
57. The May 21, 2008 Facilities Agreement was guaranteed by Primera, as well as Paul Coronis and Nicholas Coronis personally. Stipulated Fact ¶¶ 43, 45. Because Primera managed the Coronis controlled vessels in any event, there does not appear to be any independent consideration for Primera to have agreed to this guarantee. The original Facilities Agreement was signed either by Paul Coronis or an attorney he authorized to sign on behalf of all of the Joint and Several Borrowers and Primera. Ex. 17.
58. In the Facilities Agreement, it was agreed that Primera would be the manager of the new and existing ships identified in the Facilities Agreement while the Agreement was in effect. Ex. 17 at 2-3; Tr. at 189. It was also agreed that the "beneficial ownership" of the Joint and Several Borrowers and Primera would not change *375during the pendency of the Agreement. Tr. at 189.
59. At or about the same time, Paul Coronis helped secure contracts for the construction of various bulk carriers including Sonic's SUNRAY and Mirage's MOONRAY. Ex. 17 at 4, 13; Tr. at 183-84.
60. In addition, Pasha was to build an unnamed Panamax bulk carrier, Movida was to build an unnamed Handysize bulk carrier, and Element was also to build a Handysize bulk carrier using funds from the Facilities Agreement. Ex. 17 at 4, 14.
61. Thus, as of the time Primera entered into the FFA with d'Amico Dry, and as of the time Paul Coronis concluded that Primera was in a dire financial condition, Paul Coronis had ordered the incorporation of these Joint and Several Borrowers. Paul Coronis and Nicholas Coronis were the Officers and Directors of the Joint and Several Borrowers, and the Coronis family owned 70 percent of the shares of each. None of the Joint and Several Borrowers had offices or employees of their own but were operated by Primera which maintained and controlled their assets, including their bank accounts. Tr. at 158-61, 304-05, 339.
62. Primera was an alter ego of the Coronis family. It disregarded its corporate formalities and was inadequately capitalized at the time it entered into the FFA at issue. It intermingled its corporate funds with Chemnav Shipmanagement and the various shipowning companies eventually owned by Bulknav or managed by Chemnav Shipmanagement. Primera operated out of 6 Roupel Street, 145 64 Kifissia, Athens, Greece along with all of the Coronis family controlled entities including Chemnav Shipmanagement, subsequently Primebulk, and all of the shipowning companies. Its ownership and management was completely dominated and controlled by Nicholas Coronis, and later by Paul Coronis. Primera exercised no business discretion of its own but was instead a tool for the Coronis family's sole use. Primera siphoned funds from FFAs away from Primera and directed the money to other Coronis controlled companies. It also guaranteed the debts of the shipowning companies, becoming collateral for and jointly and severally liable under construction contracts of new ships owned by the Coronis family. It was a tool to co-mingle and/or shelter Coronis family assets. See Findings of Fact, supra, at ¶¶ 41-61.
D. Primera Diversion of Assets
63. After the freight market collapsed, and parties sought to enforce FFA debt against Primera, on or about October 6, 2009, Paul Coronis and Primera used a three-way netting-off agreement to collect on Primera's earlier FFA trade with TMT Asia. Tr. at 254; Ex. 12. Despite the fact that Primera was the party to the FFA, instead of directing payment to Primera's account, Paul Coronis diverted funds that should have been paid to Primera to other Coronis controlled entities. For example, the first payment of $203,228.58 was directed to Primrose Shipping, Ltd., a Coronis controlled company. Tr. at 255-56, 259; Exs. 11, 12, 124-25. The second payment of $185,000.00 was directed to Seadance Maritime, a company related to Primrose and controlled by the Coronis family. Exs. 124-25; Tr. at 261.
64. Primrose and Seadance were controlled directly or indirectly by the Coronis family. Tr. at 268-70; Exs. 124-25. Despite having money directed to their accounts, Primera had no written agreements of any sort with Seadance. Paul Coronis claimed to have a written agreement between Primera and Primrose, but it was never produced. Tr. at 263.
65. For example, Primrose (whose shares were held in part by Nicholas Coronis and Annabel Charlton and then by *376Seadance) seated as Director Christos Georgopoulos, who was at that same time the accountant at Primera. Tr. at 270; Ex. 125. Seadance Maritime became the sole owner of Primrose Shipping in 2005. Nicholas Coronis executed a Power of Attorney on behalf of the sole shareholder of Primera, Seadance Maritime, on June 30, 2005. In an effort to cover up the Coronis control of Seadance, Mr. Georgopoulos resigned as Director of Seadance six days after FFA funds were directed to the company by Paul Coronis. Thereafter, a corporation was inserted as Director of Seadance. See Exs. 124-25. Mr. Georgopoulos was subsequently employed by Primebulk. Tr. at 262.
66. Also in 2008 and 2009, Paul Coronis directed other payments due to Primera to the Coronis controlled company J.P.C. Investments. Tr. at 275.
67. J.P.C. Investments had made an interest free loan to Primera in July 2008 for working capital but Paul Coronis claims to have known nothing about the loan. Tr. at 272-73; Ex. 4. The 2008 Primera Profit and Loss and Balance Sheet makes no reference to any such loan having been made or any such obligation. Ex. 15.
68. Annabel Charlton, Paul Coronis's mother, was at all material times the only known Director of J.P.C. Investments. Tr. at 272-76; Ex. 4 at 48; Ex. 30; Ex. 126 at 3.
69. Primera diverted funds to J.P.C. Investments, Seadance and Primrose without any consideration for the transfer having been established. Tr. at 255-76.
70. Paul Coronis's resignation from Primera on November 15, 2008 was a sham. Tr. at 181. He continued to perform the same work he previously did at Primera before resigning.
71. For example, on January 26, 2009, Paul Coronis contacted d'Amico Dry (using his Primera email address) to offer a guarantee backed by one of the shipowning companies managed by Primera in exchange for d'Amico Dry agreeing to payment in installments by Primera. Tr. at 212-14; Ex. 33. In October, 2009, Paul Coronis negotiated and signed a netting-off agreement on behalf of Primera, communicating again through his Primera email address. Ex. 12; Tr. at 252-54. He also negotiated the changes to the Facility Agreement (discussed in further detail below).
E. The Coronis Family Creates Primebulk to Avoid Enforcement of the English Judgment
72. In early 2009, with a collapsed freight market and significant FFA debts, the Coronis family continued their efforts to avoid paying their debts.
73. On January 26, 2009, (despite allegedly having resigned from Primera) Paul Coronis contacted d'Amico Dry to offer a guarantee backed by one of the shipowning companies managed by Primera in exchange for d'Amico Dry's agreeing to installment payments by Primera. Tr. at 212-14; Ex. 33. When d'Amico Dry did not respond to his satisfaction, on February 9, 2009, Paul Coronis wrote to d'Amico Dry stating:
I therefore understand that this is to mean that you are not interested in a commercial solution as per the terms previously put forward and your sole interest is to pursue something aggressively and with limited or no results.
Ex. 33 at 8. Paul Coronis communicated with d'Amico Dry and its counsel using his Primera email address. Ex. 33.
74. During trial, Paul Coronis testified that he offered to negotiate on behalf of Primera (where he had already resigned, Stipulated Fact ¶ 27) a guarantee to d'Amico Dry from Moondance Maritime (a company whose Director was Paul Coronis and *377was majority owned by the Coronis family), for the benefit of J.P.C. Investments (which was "implied[ly]" responsible for paying d'Amico Dry and whose Director was Annabel Charlton). Tr. at 174-75, 215, 278-80; Ex. 30 at 6-7.
75. Not long after writing his February 9, 2009 email to d'Amico Dry, Paul Coronis ordered the incorporation of Primebulk. Ex. 33 at 8; Ex. 9 at 11. Primebulk was incorporated on February 25, 2009. Stipulated Fact ¶ 46. Although Primebulk was incorporated in The Marshall Islands and had its registered address there, it did not have any employees or office in The Marshall Islands. It operated out of 6 Roupel Street in Athens, Greece. Tr. at 216-17.
76. Once incorporated, Primebulk took the place of Primera for all intents and purposes. With the exception of one person (Jonathon Coronis), all of the employees of Primebulk had been employed by Primera. Stipulated Fact ¶ 57. Panagiotis Yannoutsos, who oversaw the construction of vessels for Primera, now oversaw the construction of the same vessels for Primebulk. Tr. at 218. Primebulk took over office space, office equipment (including computers), and furniture previously used by Primera. Tr. at 219-20, 334; Stipulated Fact ¶ 58. (Paul Coronis contends that the landlord provided the furnishings and office equipment, but nothing of that sort is found in Primebulk's lease. Tr. at 222-24.) Primebulk assumed the management of vessels previously managed by Primera. Tr. at 220; Ex. 95 at 61; Ex. 92 at 199A. No consideration was paid by Primebulk to Primera for these assets. Tr. at 222. The fee to register Primebulk as a Greek Law 89 company was paid by Chemnav Shipmanagement, another Coronis entity. Tr. at 221.
77. Greek Law 89 required shipowners to report to the Ministry of Mercantile Marine which Greek manager was responsible for managing its ships. Tr. at 176.
78. Paul Coronis and Nicholas Coronis signed the letters required under Law 89 to transfer the management of the MOONDANCE II (Moondance), SEAGLASS II (Nikka), MOONRAY (Mirage) and SUNRAY (Sonic) from Primera to Primebulk. Ex. 95 at 74, 75A, 76A, 77A.
79. When Primebulk was established, Paul Coronis and Anastasia Kalogirou, his grandmother, owned 70 percent of its shares through Riverside Holdings Co. Stipulated Fact ¶ 48. The other shareholder was a "silent partner." The only Officer and Director initially appointed was Anna Papanikolaou, one of the Coronis family lawyers employed by the firm G.E. Bairactaris & Partners. Ex. 95 at 56; Tr. at 234-35. In April 2010, Ms. Papanikolaou resigned and Dimitrios Vitzileos took her place. Ex. 95 at 56; Tr. at 234-35. Mr. Vitzileos had been an employee of Primera from 1996 through 2009. Stipulated Fact ¶ 59.
80. Because of the freight market collapse and the FFA losses causing the demise of Primera and the replacement of Primera with Primebulk, in 2009 Paul Coronis had to address and revise the May 21, 2008 Facilities Agreement. Once again, Paul Coronis facilitated the amendments on behalf of all of the Joint and Several Borrowers and Primebulk. Tr. at 248-50. These negotiations led to the Second and Third Supplemental Agreements dated February and September 2009. Exs. 18-19.
81. As part of this negotiation, Paul Coronis negotiated changes in the vessels to be constructed. It was agreed that the bulk carrier construction contracts for Pasha and Movida would be canceled and two tankers would be built in their place. Tr. at 250; Stipulated Fact ¶ 62. Both the M/T CAPE TALARA, owned by Pasha, and the M/T CAPE TROY, owned by Movida, were built using funds provided by the May 21, 2008 Facilities Agreement. Tr. at *378250; Stipulated Fact ¶ 63. Handy, Adalia and Element were removed as Joint and Several Borrowers. Tr. at 251.
82. In addition, the guarantee from Primera was replaced by a guarantee from Primebulk without any evident consideration. Moreover, Primera Ocean Services and Bulknav were also added as guarantors. Tr. at 251. Paul Coronis and Nicholas Coronis also increased their personal guarantees. Tr. at 251; Stipulated Fact ¶ 61.
83. Moreover, although vessel managers approved in Facilities Agreements generally must have a proven track record as ship managers, Primebulk replaced Primera as the ship management company despite having only been in operation for fewer than six months. Ex. 17-19; Tr. at 251-52; Stipulated Fact ¶ 60. Primebulk managed the Coronis family bulk carriers. There was no additional consideration received by Primebulk for agreeing to replace Primera as a guarantor of the Facilities Agreement.
84. In 2010, all vessels managed by Primebulk were delivered or financed under the May 21, 2008 Facilities Agreement. Tr. at 247-48.
85. Primebulk was, at all material times, undercapitalized for the obligations it had assumed. Ex. 41.
86. When it began operating vessels in the summer of 2009, Primebulk managed only ships that were majority owned by the Coronis family. Tr. at 247-48.
87. Just as with Primera, Paul Coronis handled the legal and commercial/chartering desk at Primebulk on a day-to-day basis. Tr. at 236.
88. In the first eight months of essentially operating Primera's business, Primebulk earned net profits of $525,703. In its first full year of operation, Primebulk earned net profits of $969,936. Combined, these profits approach the sum that Primera owed d'Amico Dry but which it avoided paying by depleting its assets and emerging as Primebulk. Ex. 41 at 421, 434.
89. Primebulk's minutes of the Board of Directors indicate that steps were taken to "backfill" the corporate records. Mr. Coronis could not explain why the 2010, 2011, 2012 and 2013 meetings of the sole Director were on "short notice." He also could not explain why these minutes were nearly identical to one another. Tr. at 291-96; Ex. 37.
90. During the course of 2014 and 2015, while discovery in this matter was ongoing, Primebulk's books and records from the start of its operation on April 30, 2009, including its management fee and commission revenue, overhead and general expenses were being analyzed by Moore Stephens. Various documents - including charter parties, recaps, the Memorandum of Agreement for the purchase and sale of vessels, web-banking records, and wages and expense records - were all available and reviewed by Moore Stephens. Ex. 41. Many of these same records were never produced in this litigation (as demonstrated by comparing the records enumerated in Ex. 41 with the alter ego defendants' list of exhibits wherein their entire production is identified).
91. Primebulk is a successor-in-interest and an alter ego of the Coronis family and Primera. In complete disregard of corporate formalities, the Coronis family abused the corporate form by using Primebulk to replace the debt laden Primera as the ship manager for the Coronis family fleet of ships. Primebulk took over Primera's assets without consideration but did not take over all of its liabilities. Primebulk was grossly undercapitalized because its assets were insufficient to satisfy the obligations that it guaranteed. It intermingled funds with all of the shipowning companies. Its only Officer and Director was initially Primera's attorney and later was Dimitrios *379Vitzileos, an employee of Primera. Primebulk's employees were almost entirely employees transferred from Primera and its controlling shares were owned by the Coronis family. Primebulk operated out of 6 Roupel Street, 145 64 Kifissia, Athens, Greece in the office space formerly occupied by Primera - in the same building as Chemnav Shipmanagement and the other shipowning companies. It exercised no degree of independent business discretion but was instead controlled by Paul Coronis. Its dealings with the other Coronis family companies were not at arm's length. Primebulk did not pay consideration for any of the business, assets or equipment that it received from Primera including Primera office space, furniture, computers, employees, ships managed and shipowning company accounts and records. Primebulk was not treated as an independent profit center in that it assumed all of Primera's work without assuming all of Primera's debt. It replaced Primera as the corporate guarantor in the loan agreement to buy new Coronis family ships and became jointly and severally liable for the other Coronis family entities' debt. See Findings of Fact, supra, at ¶¶ 72-90.
F. The Coronis Family's Relationship with Bulknav
92. The shares of each of the Joint and Several Borrowers under the May 21, 2008 Facilities Agreement were 70 percent owned by the Coronis family by way of Shelly Ventures, Inc., and 30 percent owned by silent partners. Tr. at 184, 198; Ex. 84.
93. Shelly Ventures was the entity used by Paul Coronis to enter into the contract for the construction of the vessel later to be owned by Pasha and named CAPE TALARA. Tr. at 200-02; Ex. 19 at 2.
94. After the CAPE TALARA was built and delivered, on July 5, 2010, Nicholas Coronis signed and submitted a letter on behalf of Pasha to the Greek Mercantile Marine stating that Primebulk was the manager of CAPE TALARA. Ex. 95 at 78A.
95. After the CAPE TROY was built and delivered, on September 20, 2011, Nicholas Coronis signed and submitted a letter on behalf of Movida to the Greek Mercantile Marine stating that Primebulk was the manager of CAPE TROY. Ex. 95 at 80A.
96. Also in and about this time, the shareholding of the Joint and Several Borrowers changed. Bulknav was incorporated at Paul Coronis's request. Tr. at 159. It became the holding company for all of the shares of the Joint and Several Borrowers, i.e., Sonic, Mirage, Handy, Pasha, Nikka, Movida and Element. It also owns the shares of Moondance Maritime, Rocket Finance, Inc., Caldera and Adalia. Tr. at 196. No consideration was paid by Bulknav for these shares. Tr. at 197.
97. Bulknav, which is incorporated in The Marshall Islands and has a registered address in The Marshall Islands, does not maintain any offices or employees in The Marshall Islands. Tr. at 196.
98. The Coronis family continued to own 70 percent of the shares of the shipowning companies by owning 70 percent of the shares of Bulknav through Shelly Ventures. Tr. at 197-98; Stipulated Fact ¶ 50. The remaining shares were owned by silent partners. Tr. at 197-98.
99. During 2009 and 2010, Nicholas Coronis and Paul Coronis were both Directors and the President and Treasurer, respectively, of Bulknav. Tr. at 198. Their lawyer, Evangelos Bairactaris, who incorporated Bulknav at Paul Coronis's request, was the only other Director and Secretary. Ex. 69. Later in 2010, Nicholas Coronis and Evangelos Bairactaris resigned. Konstantinos *380Kremydas was appointed President and Director, and Paul Coronis was made Secretary and Director. Stipulated Fact ¶¶ 51-52; Tr. at 198-99; Ex. 68. (The April 19, 2010 minutes indicate that Paul Coronis was made a Director that day, but the July 30, 2009 minutes show that Paul Coronis was already a Director and Treasurer of Bulknav. Exs. 68-69).
100. Despite the fact that Bulknav and all of the Joint and Several Borrowers were either Marshall Islands or Malta corporations, none of them had offices or employees in their places of incorporation. They operated through Primera and later Primebulk at their address in Kifissia, Athens, Greece. Tr. at 158-61.
101. Other than occasions when the shipowning companies hired the vessel's crew, none of these Joint and Several Borrowers had employees. Tr. at 160.
102. After the formation of Bulknav, Paul Coronis resigned from the Boards of the shipowning companies. Paul Coronis stated that, among other reasons, it was duplicative for him to be a Director of the Bulknav subsidiaries because he exercised sufficient control over them as Director of Bulknav. Tr. at 199. In fact, Paul Coronis makes decisions for Bulknav. Ex. 68; Tr. at 200.
103. Bulknav did not have its own bank account. Tr. at 200.
104. At his own discretion, Paul Coronis moved money among the Bulknav individual shipowning companies to balance out gains and losses across all of the companies. Tr. at 200-01.
105. Paul Coronis unilaterally designated himself as the Rule 30(b)(6) witness for Bulknav, Sonic, Mirage, Pasha, Movida, Handy, Element, Caldera and Adalia without receiving authority from anyone else. Tr. at 170, 200.
106. During the course of these proceedings, d'Amico Dry requested that the defendants produce banking, financial and accounting records from Primebulk, Bulknav and the Bulknav owned entities from January 1, 2008 to date. No bank records were produced for Bulknav, Sonic, Handy, Element, Caldera or Adalia.
107. Bulknav is an alter ego of the Coronis family and Primera. Bulknav disregarded corporate formalities by operating as a shell company used by the Coronis family to add another layer of corporate protection for family members. It was inadequately capitalized. It had no bank account. While Bulknav had no funds, money was intermingled and moved among the shipowning entities it owned on a regular basis at the discretion of Paul Coronis to cover shortfalls in the operation of each company. While it has never had employees, Bulknav's Officers and Directors overlapped with the other Coronis family companies and included Paul Coronis and Nicholas Coronis, with Paul Coronis remaining an Officer and Director to date. The controlling Bulknav shares have always been held by the Coronis family. All of Bulknav's shipowning companies are managed out of 6 Roupel Street, 145 64 Kifissia, Athens, Greece, where both Primera and Primebulk housed their day-to-day operations. Bulknav exercised no independent business discretion. Its Director, Paul Coronis, unilaterally designated himself as the Rule 30(b)(6) witness for Bulknav and all of the shipowning companies without seeking permission from any other person. In a less than arm's length transaction, Bulknav novated a contract for the construction of a tank vessel from another Coronis family operated company without consideration for the transaction. It was not treated as its own profit center. It paid no consideration to the shipowning companies for the transfer of their shares, it guaranteed the loan agreement for the purchase of new vessels for the Coronis family, and it became jointly and severally *381liable for the debt. It intermingled the assets of the Coronis family when two of its single-purpose shipowning companies came to own the Primebulk managed vessels CAPE TALARA and CAPE TROY, the fruits of the loan agreement guaranteed by Primera and the Coronis family. See Findings of Fact, supra, at ¶¶ 92-106.
G. Primera Ocean Services S.A.
108. Primera Ocean was a Liberian corporation but did not maintain offices or employees there. Ex. 94 at 76; Tr. at 283. Its only office was at 6 Roupel Street, 145 64 Kifissia, Athens, Greece. Tr. at 283. Its few employees included Paul Coronis and his parents - Nicholas Coronis and Annabel Charlton. Ex. 94 at 17-19, 25-29, 45-47, 58-59; Tr. at 282-83. The Greek Law 89 representative was Nicholas Coronis. Ex. 94 at 93, 126A. Primera paid the Greek Law 89 registration fee for Primera Ocean. Ex. 94 at 61A.
109. At all material times, Primera Ocean managed one vessel, BLUDANCE, owned by Caldera Marine Co. Ltd. Tr. at 283; Ex. 94 at 89A, 96A, 106A, 132. Like other Coronis controlled shipowning companies, Caldera acted through Primera Ocean at its office in Kifissia, Athens, Greece. Tr. at 283; Ex. 94 at 76-77.
110. Caldera and Primera Ocean were parties to the May 21, 2008 Facilities Agreement and Joint and Several Borrowers in that they guaranteed performance of the others. Exs. 17-19; Tr. at 285. There is no evidence that consideration was exchanged for these guarantees.
H. The Coronis Family Tanker Fleet
111. In addition to the bulk carriers managed by Primera in 2008, the Coronis family also had a tank vessel management company Chemnav Shipmanagement, Ltd. ("Chemnav Shipmanagement") and shipowning companies.
112. At Paul Coronis's request, Chemnav Shipmanagement was incorporated in The Marshall Islands, but it did not maintain any offices or employees there. Tr. at 297; Stipulated Fact ¶¶ 75, 79.
113. Like Primera and Primebulk, Chemnav Shipmanagement operated out of 6, Roupel Street, 145 64, Kifissia, Athens, Greece. Stipulated Fact ¶ 76.
114. Paul Coronis was, at all material times, the President and sole owner of Chemnav Shipmanagement through Starboard Holdings. Tr. at 297; Stipulated Fact ¶¶ 80-81. He was also a Director of Chemnav Shipmanagement from 2006 to April 19, 2010. Ex. 46; Ex. 93 at 1; Stipulated Fact ¶ 78.
115. The Greek Law 89 establishment fee for Chemnav Shipmanagement was paid by Primera on April 3, 2008. Ex. 93 at 25.
116. In 2008 and 2009, the Greek Law 89 representative of Chemnav Shipmanagement was Paul Coronis. Ex. 93 at 70, 77. In 2010, Panagiotois Yannoutsos (the person responsible for supervising the construction of vessels for Primera and Primebulk, Tr. at 218-19) became the Greek Law 89 representative as well as a Director of Chemnav Shipmanagement. Ex. 46.
117. In 2008, Chemnav Shipmanagement managed COMMENCEMENT (owned by Annamar, Stipulated Fact ¶ 65) and LYNX (owned by Camela Navigation Inc. ("Camela"), Ex. 93 at 104A). In 2009, Chemnav also managed POLARIS (owned by Seasatin, Stipulated Fact ¶ 74), and SATURN (owned by Seasafe, Stipulated Fact ¶ 69). Chemnav Shipmanagement's service included managing the accounts and records for these entities. Stipulated Fact ¶ 77.
118. Even as of August 13, 2009, financial sources such as Lloyd's List Intelligence, *382in a report concerning Primera, referred to Chemnav as the "tanker interests of the Coronis family," noting further that "the principals behind Primera and Chemnav have 14 vessels on order including bulkers and chemical tankers at a reported cost of US $600 [million]." Primera Ex. OO.
119. Paul Coronis ordered the incorporation of Annamar, Seasafe, Seasatin and Camela. Stipulated Fact ¶ 64; Tr. at 297.
120. The shares of Annamar, Seasafe, Seasatin and Camela were not collectively held by a single holding company. Tr. at 297-98, 301.
121. Annamar, Seasafe, Seasatin and Camela are each owned by the same parties. Tr. at 297-98, Exs. 57, 67. The Coronis family, at all material times, owned the majority of the shares of Annamar, Seasafe and Seasatin. Tr. at 297-98 ; Stipulated Fact ¶ 66; Exs. 57, 67.
122. Like other Coronis shipowning companies, Annamar, Seasafe and Seasatin were Marshall Islands corporations but had no offices or employees there. They were operated almost exclusively by Chemnav Shipmanagement at 6 Roupel Street, 145 64 Kifissia, Athens, Greece. None of these entities had any employees of their own. Tr. at 298.
123. At the relevant time, Paul Coronis and/or Nicholas Coronis were Directors of Annamar, Seasafe and Seasatin. Stipulated Fact ¶¶ 67-68, 70-73.
124. On March 3, 2008, Paul Coronis signed and submitted a letter on behalf of Annamar to the Greek Mercantile Marine stating that Chemnav Shipmanagement was the manager of COMMENCEMENT. Ex. 93 at 114.
125. On December 22, 2008, Nicholas Coronis signed and submitted a letter on behalf of Camela to the Greek Mercantile Marine stating that Chemnav Shipmanagement was the manager of LYNX. Ex. 93 at 115A.
126. On February 16, 2009, Nicholas Coronis signed and submitted a letter on behalf of Seasatin to the Greek Mercantile Marine stating that Chemnav Shipmanagement was the manager of POLARIS. Ex. 93 at 116A.
127. On May 12, 2009, Nicholas Coronis signed and submitted a letter on behalf of Seasafe to the Greek Mercantile Marine stating that Chemnav Shipmanagement was the manager of SATURN. Ex. 93 at 119A.
128. In 2007, Paul Coronis, on behalf of Camela, Seasafe, Seasatin and Annamar, negotiated a Facilities Agreement with HSH Nordbank (the "April 23, 2007 Facilities Agreement"). Ex. 42 at 2; Tr. at 299-300.
129. Primera executed a guarantee in favor of a shipyard for the construction of the four chemical tank ships being funded under the April 23, 2007 Facilities Agreement. Stipulated Fact ¶¶ 82-83. Correspondence under the April 23, 2007 Facilities Agreement was to be sent to the different borrowers thereunder c/o Primera at its office in Kifissia, Athens, Greece. Ex. 42 at 101. There is no evidence that consideration was exchanged for this guarantee.
130. Camela, Seasafe, Seasatin and Annamar were all jointly and severally liable under the April 23, 2007 Facilities Agreement. Ex. 42 at 2, 103; Tr. at 301. Stipulated Fact ¶ 84.
131. The April 23, 2007 Facilities Agreement required that Annamar, Seasafe, Seasatin and Camela maintain $2,500,000 in a retention account until the construction of the ships was complete and $2,000,000 thereafter. Ex. 42 at 45; Tr. at 301.
132. Paul Coronis, Nicholas Coronis, Chemnav Inc. and Chemnav Shipmanagement *383provided guarantees under the April 23, 2007 Facilities Agreement. Stipulated Fact ¶¶ 83-84. There is no evidence that consideration was exchanged for these guarantees.
133. Chemnav Shipmanagement and the companies it managed (Annamar, Seasafe, Seasatin and Camela) advanced funds to one another or paid bills on behalf of each other. Exs. 111-19.
134. Despite the fact that there is no holding company owning the shares of Annamar, Seasafe, Seasatin and Camila, these companies regularly satisfied debts and obligations owed by another one of these entities. Tr. at 301 ; Exs. 113-17, 119-20.
135. The payment of bills by Bulknav controlled companies on behalf of Chemnav managed companies can be seen from the payment of the legal invoices in this case. For instance, Chalos & Co. was counsel for Chemnav, and the shipowning entities Chemnav managed (Annamar, Seasafe and Seasatin), as well as Chemnav, Inc. Seven invoices were submitted to Chemnav Shipmanagement by Chalos & Co., but these were paid by wire transfer by Primebulk Shipmanagement. Ex. 14 at 1-7, 27. Later, despite representing the "Chemnav Defendants," Chalos & Co. sent the next six invoices to "Bulknav" which, at the time was represented by Blank Rome LLP. These invoices were also paid by Primebulk. Ex. 14 at 8-13, 27. Thereafter, despite representing the Chemnav Defendants, Chalos & Co. continued to bill Blank Rome's client, Bulknav, on another six invoices that were then paid by Nikka. Ex. 14 at 14-19, 27. Each of these invoices was approved for payment by Paul Coronis, who oversaw this litigation on behalf of all of the alter ego defendants. Tr. at 233-34, 236. Later, both Blank Rome and Chalos & Co. billed the UK Defense Club for the legal services, despite the fact that the UK Club insured only two of the defendants, Bulknav owned Mirage and Nikka, and the other five vessels for which policies were produced were insured by other clubs. Ex. 14 at 24-26; Ex. 106.
136. During the course of these proceedings, d'Amico Dry requested that the defendants produce banking, financial and accounting records from Chemnav Shipmanagement, Chemnav Inc., Annamar, Seasatin, Seasafe, Caldera and Primera Ocean from January 1, 2008 to date. Despite repeated requests, these entities produced bank records for only limited periods. See generally Sonic et al. Ex. T. No bank records were provided for Chemnav Inc. or Primera Ocean.
137. Moreover, no internal accounting or financial records were produced by any of the foregoing parties.
138. Paul Coronis designated himself to be the 30(b)(6) witness for Chemnav Shipmanagement, Annamar, Seasatin and Seasafe. No authorization was required from anyone else. Tr. at 170.
139. Chemnav Shipmanagement and the shipowning companies it manages are the alter egos of the Coronis family and Primera. Chemnav Shipmanagement and the shipowning companies were incorporated at the direction of Paul Coronis. Their corporate forms were disregarded by the Coronis family and Paul Coronis currently makes all decisions for all of the corporations. Chemnav Shipmanagement was inadequately capitalized - its assets were insufficient to satisfy the obligations that it assumed under the loan agreement to buy the Coronis chemical tankers. Chemnav Shipmanagement paid the debts of other Coronis companies. Its Law 89 fee was paid by Primera and it paid the Law 89 fee for Primebulk. Its sole owner, Paul Coronis, was a Director of Primera. Paul Coronis and Nicholas Coronis were Directors and Officers of the shipowning entities. They all operated out of 6 Roupel *384Street, 145 64 Kifissia, Athens, Greece, along with Primera, Primebulk and all of the Coronis controlled companies. The companies exercised no independent business discretion. Chemnav Shipmanagement's sole shareholder, Paul Coronis, unilaterally designated himself as the Rule 30(b)(6) witness for Chemnav Shipmanagement and all of the shipowning companies without seeking permission from any other person. Funds of the shipowning companies were regularly transferred among the companies (despite having no formal relationship) to cover operational deficits at the direction of Paul Coronis. Debts were also paid for the Bulknav shipowning companies. Chemnav Shipmanagement was the corporate guarantor for the loan agreement to build the Coronis family chemical tanker fleet (the construction contracts for which were guaranteed by Primera) and became jointly and severally liable for the debt. All of these companies intermingled assets and personnel with the other Coronis family companies. See Findings of Fact, supra, at ¶¶ 111-138.
I. Primera's Purported Liquidation
140. Because of threats and action taken by Flame in England to force Primera into involuntary insolvency in 2010, Primera commenced dissolution and later liquidation proceedings in Monrovia, Liberia. None of the alter ego defendants in this case were parties directly or indirectly in the Liberian liquidation. In 2010, Liberia had no established law regarding the liquidation of corporations. Tr. at 485-86.
141. Primera's liquidator, H. Varney Sherman, met with Linos Choo and other unidentified individuals in Athens on April 6, 2010. Mr. Sherman did nothing to verify the information which was provided to him during the April 6, 2010 meeting. He did nothing to investigate Primera's assets. Tr. at 463, 469, 480.
142. At their meeting, Mr. Sherman was shown copies of Primera's last bank statement for 2009. Tr. at 466-68. The statement showed a balance of $510.90. Tr. at 484. Despite the fact that these documents were made available to the liquidator, they were not produced by Primera in this action, which was commenced nine months before the Athens meeting. Tr. at 484 ; Primera Ex. RR at 5-8.
143. Mr. Sherman was not aware of any of Primera's pre-dissolution activities, including the transfers to Primrose, Seadance or J.P.C. Investments. Tr. at 479-80. In fact, Mr. Sherman was unaware that Primera conducted any business in 2009. Tr. at 468.
144. Although the Primera 2008 Balance Sheet and Profit and Loss Statement showed assets of $132,862 as of December 31, 2008, Mr. Sherman made no investigation into the disposition of those assets; he testified that doing so was outside the scope of his responsibilities. Tr. at 475, 484-85.
145. Despite being the liquidator, Mr. Sherman was unaware that Primera was a party to an English arbitration in which it was seeking to recover from two shipyards. Tr. at 483. He was also unable to specify what action, if any, Primera had taken to recover the FFA sums due from Industrial Carriers, Inc., and TMT Asia. Tr. at 471, 481-82.
146. The liquidation was essentially dormant between 2011 and 2015. Tr. at 481.
147. For all intents and purposes, Primera's Liberian liquidation is a sham. See Findings of Fact, supra, at ¶¶ 140-146.
J. Credibility of Paul Coronis
148. Much of the testimony from Paul Coronis was not credible and his testimony cannot be relied upon. But the defendants *385rely on the testimony of Paul Coronis in their attempt to defeat the allegations of alter ego liability.
149. Paul Coronis testified that, even though he was directing money to Seadance Maritime under the TMT FFA (to be paid by Meadway under the netting-off agreement), he had no knowledge regarding the owners or Officers of Seadance. Tr. at 254, 259-62; Exs. 11-12. Annabel Charlton and Nicholas Coronis, the parents of Paul Coronis, were shareholders of Seadance and Nicholas Coronis was the proxy for the shareholding. Tr. at 267-69. Christos Georgopoulos, who was an employee of both Primera and Primebulk, was the only Director of Seadance. Tr. at 269-70.
150. Paul Coronis testified that he was not familiar with Astradance Shipping S.A. and could not recall if Primera ever managed a vessel called ASTRADANCE. Tr. at 268. Astradance Shipping S.A. was the primary shareholder, presumably in bearer shares, of Seadance. Tr. at 268. In fact, while Paul Coronis was a Director at Primera (specifically between 2004 and 2006), Primera managed ASTRADANCE for Primrose Shipping Ltd. Tr. at 171-72; Ex. 92 at 168, 174, 180.
151. Paul Coronis testified that, even though he was directing money to J.P.C. Investments under various FFAs, he had no knowledge of the Officers, Directors or shareholders of J.P.C. Investments. Tr. at 274-76. Paul Coronis's mother, Annabel Charlton, is the only known Officer and/or Director of J.P.C. Investments. Ex. 30 at 6-7; Ex. 31. Furthermore, Paul Coronis testified that he was not aware of the $1,500,000 interest-free loan provided by J.P.C. Investments to Primera in 2008 while Paul Coronis was a Director of Primera. Tr. at 171-72, 271-73. The loan documents were signed by Annabel Charlton in 2008. Ex. 4 at 48; Tr. at 273.
152. Paul Coronis testified that he was never a Director of Primera Ocean, which he claimed was a corporate guarantor under the Third Supplement to the May 21, 2008 Facilities Agreement. Tr. at 251, 281. However, the Law 89 documents show that Paul Coronis became an Officer and Director of Primera Ocean in December 2004. Ex. 94 at 45-47. Nicholas Coronis and Annabel Charlton were also Officers. Ex. 94 at 17-19, 45-47. The Law 89 fee for Primera Ocean was paid by Primera. Ex. 94 at 61.
153. Paul Coronis testified that there are no overlapping shareholders between Primera and Chemnav Shipmanagement or Primera and Primebulk, although there is no time period specified in his response. Tr. at 314. However, Paul Coronis testified that he never gained an understanding as to who was the dominant shareholder of Primera. Tr. at 315. Furthermore, no documents have been produced by the defendants that indicate the identity of the beneficial owner of Primera beyond the holding company, Denton Shipping, which Paul Coronis also testified was unfamiliar to him. Tr. at 178; Primera Ex. RR at 1. According to Primera's Law 89 documents, the sole Officer and Director of Primera from December 5, 1991 to November 21, 2008 was Nicholas Coronis. Furthermore, the sole shareholder of Primera was listed as Nicholas Coronis. Ex. 92 129, 241-43; Tr. at 166-67.
154. Paul Coronis testified that the office equipment used by both Primera and Primebulk belonged to the office and the landlord. Tr. at 222. The building was owned by Paul Coronis, Chianna Coronis, and Jonathan Coronis; therefore, any equipment belonging to the landlords would have also belonged to the Coronis family. Tr. at 161. However, Primebulk's lease does not list any furniture or equipment to be provided by the landlord or the building. Tr. at 224.
*386155. Throughout the trial, Paul Coronis testified that he was acting on behalf of the Board of Directors for varying companies. See, e.g., Tr. at 183-84, 200-01, 213-15, 249. The Boards included a combination of Coronis family members and their attorneys. See, e.g., Tr. at 174, 198, 249; Exs. 23, 69, 73, 77, 87; Ex. 92 at 219.
K. The Defendants' Production of Documents was Deficient
156. In the course of this litigation Primera has produced only a handful of corporate documents, no banking records, and was unable to produce any witness in response to d'Amico Dry's 30(b)(6) Notice of Deposition. Tr. at 170-71.
157. The Primera corporate records were kept in a cupboard in Primera's office at 6 Roupel Street. Tr. at 161, 169-70.
158. Paul Coronis admitted that he failed to produce documents in this proceeding because he deemed them irrelevant. Tr. at 232-33.
159. Paul Coronis testified that the alter ego defendants had Board of Directors meetings once a month or when a significant decision took place. Tr. at 339. The minutes from these meetings have not been produced in this litigation.
160. The meeting minutes produced in this litigation are inadequate to establish respect of corporate formalities in light of the fact that they are identical or near identical copies. See, e.g., (1) Primebulk: Ex. 37; Tr. at 293-95; Sonic et al. Ex. C at 351-55; (2) Bulknav: Sonic et al. Ex. E at 747-53; (3) Seasatin: Sonic et al. Ex. N at 1140-43; (4) Annamar: Sonic et al. Ex. R at 2858-62; (5) Seasafe: Sonic et al. Ex. Q at 2340-44. (6) Chemnav Shipmanagement: Sonic et al. Ex. S at 3516-21.
L. The Proceedings and Personal Jurisdiction
161. On September 9, 2009, d'Amico Dry commenced this action against Primera in this Court.
162. On December 23, 2010, d'Amico Dry amended its complaint to add the alter ego cause of action and the alter ego defendants. Dkt. No. 64.
163. The Supreme Court decided Daimler AG v. Bauman, 571 U.S. 117, 134 S.Ct. 746, 187 L.Ed.2d 624 (2014), on January 14, 2014.
164. Primera and the alter ego defendants, excluding J.P.C. Investments, Primera Ocean, Nicholas Coronis, and Paul Coronis, raised lack of personal jurisdiction as an affirmative defense in their answers to the amended complaint, which were filed in late April 2015, by stating, "Th[is] Court lacks personal jurisdiction over [the defendants]." Dkt. Nos. 176 at 10, 178 at 11, 179 at 8. (Primera and these answering alter ego defendants will be referred to as the "appearing defendants.")
165. J.P.C. Investments, Primera Ocean, Nicholas Coronis, and Paul Coronis did not answer the amended complaint or otherwise appear in this case. (These nonanswering defendants will be referred to as the "nonappearing defendants.") The Clerk entered certificates of default as to Primera Ocean, Dkt. No. 293, and J.P.C. Investments, Dkt. No. 294. Because the nonappearing defendants never answered the amended complaint or appeared in this action, they accordingly never raised lack of personal jurisdiction as an affirmative defense.
166. The appearing defendants first raised the issue of whether the Court lacks personal jurisdiction over them under Daimler in a letter dated April 16, 2018. See Dkt. No. 315.
*387167. In the time between the decision in Daimler and the defendants' April 16, 2018 letter, the appearing defendants:
Answered d'Amico Dry's amended complaint without mentioning Daimler, Dkt. Nos. 176, 178-79;
Filed two motions to dismiss the amended complaint on grounds other than lack of personal jurisdiction, Dkt. Nos. 153-58, 163-65, 186-87, 196-97;
Raised numerous pretrial discovery issues with the Court, Dkt. Nos. 173, 218, 221, 227, 231, 236;
Participated in a Court-supervised settlement conference, Dkt No. 216 and ECF entry on November 30, 2015;
Participated in several conferences with the Court, see, e.g., Dkt. Nos. 136-37, 151-52, 183-84, 246, 265;
Signed onto a joint pretrial order, Dkt. No. 250;
Submitted pretrial findings of fact and conclusions of law, Dkt. Nos. 251, 254, 256;
Participated in a four-day bench trial (May 9-12, 2016); and
Submitted posttrial findings of fact and conclusions of law, Dkt. Nos. 299, 302-05, 307.
168. On February 18, 2016, the Second Circuit Court of Appeals decided Brown v. Lockheed Martin Corp., in which it applied Daimler and held that registration to do business in Connecticut did not provide consent to general jurisdiction in Connecticut courts. 814 F.3d 619, 639-41 (2d Cir. 2016). In the period between Brown was decided and the defendants' April 16, 2018 letter, the appearing defendants appeared at a conference, participated in the four-day bench trial, and submitted posttrial findings of fact and conclusions of law. See Findings of Fact, supra, at ¶ 167.
III. CONCLUSIONS OF LAW
A. Personal Jurisdiction over Primera and the Other Appearing Defendants
1. The Supreme Court's decision in Daimler established that, except in an "exceptional" case, a corporate defendant may be treated as "essentially at home," and subject to a state's general personal jurisdiction, only where it is incorporated or maintains its principal place of business. 571 U.S. at 138-39 & nn.18-19, 134 S.Ct. 746.
2. The Daimler decision addressed minimum contacts, holding that "continuous and systematic" contacts alone are insufficient to establish general personal jurisdiction and thus rejected the idea that a company could be brought into court merely for "doing business" in a state. Id.; see Gucci Am., Inc. v. Weixing Li, 768 F.3d 122, 135 (2d Cir. 2014).
3. In light of Daimler, courts have determined that a company's compliance with a state's registration statutes cannot constitute consent to general jurisdiction. See, e.g., Brown, 814 F.3d at 639-41 (applying Daimler and holding that registration to do business in Connecticut did not provide consent to general jurisdiction in Connecticut courts); Chatwal Hotels & Resorts LLC v. Dollywood Co., 90 F.Supp.3d 97, 105 (S.D.N.Y. 2015) ("[T]he mere fact of [a defendant's] being registered to do business is insufficient to confer general jurisdiction in a state that is neither its state of incorporation or its principal place of business."); AstraZeneca AB v. Mylan Pharm., Inc., 72 F.Supp.3d 549, 556 (D. Del. 2014) (discussing Daimler and holding that complying with Delaware's business registration statutes - which are mandatory for doing business with the state - does not constitute consent to general jurisdiction), aff'd sub nom., Acorda Therapeutics Inc. v. Mylan Pharm. Inc., 817 F.3d 755 (Fed. Cir. 2016).
*3884. The parties explicitly or implicitly agree that under Daimler, there is no general personal jurisdiction over any of the appearing defendants in this case. The plaintiff has not contended that there is specific personal jurisdiction over any of the appearing defendants to enforce the English Judgment against them. The only issue, then, is whether the appearing defendants are entitled to dismissal for lack of general personal jurisdiction or whether they have forfeited that defense.
5. Summarily asserting the affirmative defense of lack of personal jurisdiction in an answer is sufficient to preserve the defense under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 12(h)(1). Hamilton v. Atlas Turner, Inc., 197 F.3d 58, 60 (2d Cir. 1999).
6. However, a delay in pursuing a personal jurisdiction defense - such as failing to argue lack of personal jurisdiction in a motion to dismiss - may result in forfeiture of the defense, even where the defense was asserted in a timely answer. See id.; Datskow v. Teledyne, Inc., Cont'l Prod. Div., 899 F.2d 1298, 1303 (2d Cir. 1990) (holding that a defendant forfeited the defense of improper service by participating in litigation for four months after raising the personal jurisdiction issue in its answer).
7. In determining whether the appearing defendants have forfeited their personal jurisdiction defense, the Court considers the length of time between the filing of their answers and the April 16, 2018 letter that specifically argued the effect of Daimler- nearly three years - and the appearing defendants' considerable pretrial, trial, and posttrial activity during that period. See Hamilton, 197 F.3d at 61 ; Findings of Fact, supra, at ¶¶ 163-164, 166-167. These considerations weigh heavily against the ability of the appearing defendants to claim a defense of lack of personal jurisdiction. See Hamilton, 197 F.3d at 61-63 (holding that a defendant forfeited the personal jurisdiction defense raised in its answer by waiting four years to pursue the defense and passing up at least four opportunities to do so); Datskow, 899 F.2d at 1303 (same, where the defendant waited four months to pursue the defense after raising it in the answer and, in the interim, the defendant attended a conference and participated in scheduling discovery and motion practice); Allgaier v. Peterson, No. 13cv5112, 2015 WL 5459808, at *3 (S.D.N.Y. Aug. 13, 2015) (same, where the defendants delayed seventeen months in litigating personal jurisdiction after raising it, and attended several conferences and "passed up multiple chances to litigate" the defense in that period); see also Laydon v. Mizuho Bank, Ltd., No. 12cv3419, 2015 WL 1499185, at *7 (S.D.N.Y. Mar. 31, 2015) (holding that a set of defendants waived their personal jurisdiction defense based on Daimler by failing to "promptly assert" it in the seven months following the date Daimler was decided).
8. The circumstances of the proceedings at the time the personal jurisdiction defense was first raised in the answers and subsequently pursued in April 2018 is also significant. See Hamilton, 197 F.3d at 62 ("By withholding its motion [to dismiss], [the defendant] gambled that it could raise the personal jurisdiction issue on the eve of trial, in case a trial occurred."). In this case, after initially raising the defense of lack of personal jurisdiction in their answers, the appearing defendants waited about three years to pursue that defense in their April 2018 letter. The appearing defendants asserted that defense after litigating two motions to dismiss and participating in a four-day bench trial. There is a powerful inference that those defendants were simply attempting to preserve yet another litigation tactic.
9. Given this case's circumstances, it is plain that the appearing defendants have *389forfeited their personal jurisdiction defense and are therefore subject to this Court's jurisdiction.5
10. Therefore, the English Judgment may be enforced against Primera. Whether the English Judgment may be enforced against the other appearing defendants depends on whether they are alter egos of Primera. That issue is discussed below. See Section III. C., infra.
B. Personal Jurisdiction over the Nonappearing Defendants
11. d'Amico Dry seeks default judgments against the nonappearing defendants, namely Paul Coronis, Nicholas Coronis, Primera Ocean Services S.A., and J.P.C. Investments S.A. The Clerk issued certificates of default against Primera Ocean and J.P.C. Investments but Paul Coronis and Nicholas Coronis successfully urged the Clerk not to enter certificates of default against them. The defendants contend that Paul Coronis and Nicholas Coronis were not properly served under the Hague Convention and therefore the Court cannot enter default judgments against them because the Court does not have jurisdiction over them. No specific argument has been made on behalf of Primera Ocean and J.P.C. Investments.
12. Before entering a default judgment, a court may consider sua sponte whether it has personal jurisdiction over the defaulting parties. City of New York v. Mickalis Pawn Shop, LLC, 645 F.3d 114, 133 (2d Cir. 2011). "A non-appearing defendant does not, by defaulting, forfeit its right to challenge any ensuing default judgment for lack of personal jurisdiction."6 Id. at 139. The Court chooses to assess the personal jurisdiction of the nonappearing defendants in this case. Cf. Johnson & Johnson v. Azam Int'l Trading, No. 07cv4302, 2013 WL 4048295, at *4 (E.D.N.Y. Aug. 9, 2013) ("In light of the facts of this case, in which the defendants in default are not residents of the Eastern District of New York and had only limited contacts here, I elect to consider the question of personal jurisdiction.").
13. When seeking a default judgment, "although the plaintiffs retain the burden of proving personal jurisdiction, they can satisfy that burden with a prima facie showing, and may rest their argument on their pleadings, bolstered by such affidavits and other written materials as they can otherwise obtain." SEC v. Aimsi Techs., Inc., 650 F.Supp.2d 296, 301 (S.D.N.Y. 2009) (quotation marks omitted).
*390In this case, d'Amico Dry takes the additional step of arguing that they proved at the nonjury trial that the nonappearing defendants are alter egos of Primera, and therefore the Court has personal jurisdiction over them under an alter ego theory of jurisdiction. Specifically, d'Amico Dry contends that the nonappearing defendants are alter egos of Primera and argues that (1) because Primera is subject to the Court's jurisdiction, so are its alter egos; and (2) because Primera and the other appearing defendants participated fully in the proceedings, any objections to service of process and personal jurisdiction by the nonappearing defendants were forfeited by the appearing defendants.
14. In general, alter egos are treated as one entity for purposes of jurisdiction. Wm. Passalacqua Builders Inc. v. Resnick Dev. So., Inc., 933 F.2d 131, 142-43 (2d Cir. 1991). Moreover, personal jurisdiction exists over a party where its corporate alter ego has "participated fully in the proceedings and therefore waived any objections to lack of service of process." Kidder, Peabody & Co. v. Maxus Energy Corp., 925 F.2d 556, 562 (2d Cir. 1991).
15. d'Amico Dry pleaded adequately that the nonappearing defendants were alter egos of Primera and bolstered this claim with evidence at trial. This Court has jurisdiction over Primera, and Primera, as well as the rest of the appearing defendants, participated fully in this proceeding. Therefore, the Court has personal jurisdiction over the nonappearing defendants including Paul Coronis and Nicholas Coronis, regardless of whether Paul Coronis and Nicholas Coronis were properly served. See Passalacqua Builders, 933 F.2d at 142-43 ; Kidder, Peabody & Co., 925 F.2d at 562 ; cf. Totalplan Corp. of Am. v. Lure Camera Ltd., 613 F.Supp. 451, 458 (W.D.N.Y. 1985) (concluding that a first corporate defendant's forfeiture of its personal jurisdiction defense extended to a second corporate defendant and two individual defendants who allegedly used the first corporate defendant as a mere shell for their own conduct).
16. It would be particularly inappropriate to find that there was no personal jurisdiction over Paul Coronis and Nicholas Coronis based on the alleged insufficiency of the service of process on them. They both had actual knowledge of these proceedings. Moreover, Paul Coronis actually appeared in New York and testified at the trial on behalf of the appearing defendants, and also testified at a deposition as the Rule 30(b)(6) witness on behalf of the appearing alter ego defendants.
17. Because the Court has jurisdiction over the nonappearing defendants, and because those defendants did not appear in this action, d'Amico Dry's request for a default judgment against the nonappearing defendants - namely Paul Coronis, Nicholas Coronis, Primera Ocean Services S.A., and J.P.C. Investments S.A. - is granted .
18. Therefore, the nonappearing defendants are liable for the English Judgment against Primera.
C. Alter Ego Liability of the Appearing Alter Ego Defendants
19. The parties agree that federal maritime law applies in assessing whether the web of appearing alter ego defendants are alter egos of Primera. See NYKCool A.B. v. Ecuadorian Line, Inc., 562 F. App'x 45, 46 (2d Cir. 2014) (summary order); N. Tankers (Cyprus) Ltd. v. Backstrom, 967 F.Supp. 1391, 1398-99 (D. Conn. 1997) ; see also Alter Ego Defs.' Posttrial Mem. at 4; d'Amico Dry's Posttrial Mem. at 37.
20. To pierce the corporate veil under federal maritime law, a plaintiff must show that an alter ego was used to "perpetrate a fraud" or was "so dominated" and its corporate form so "disregarded"
*391that the alter ego "primarily transacted [another entity's] business rather than [its] own corporate business." Kirno Hill Corp. v. Holt, 618 F.2d 982, 985 (2d Cir. 1980). d'Amico Dry contends that the corporate veil should be pierced because the appearing alter ego defendants were "so dominated" by Primera.
21. The alleged domination asserted as the basis for piercing the corporate veil must have occurred at or about the time of the complained-of transaction. See In Re Arbitration Between Holborn Oil Trading Ltd. & Interpol Bermuda Ltd., 774 F.Supp. 840, 845 (S.D.N.Y. 1991) (citing Passalacqua Builders, 933 F.2d at 138 ). "As clearly indicated in Passalacqua Builders, the inquiry for piercing the corporate veil examines the full spectrum of the relations between the parent corporation and its alleged alter ego." Holborn Oil, 774 F.Supp. at 845.
22. Factors relevant to determining whether one entity is the "alter ego" of another - or, in this case, whether the web of appearing Coronis family controlled alter ego defendants are alter egos of Primera - include the following:
(1) the absence of the formalities and paraphernalia that are part and parcel of the corporate existence, i.e., issuance of stock, election of directors, keeping of corporate records and the like, (2) inadequate capitalization, (3) whether funds are put in and taken out of the corporation for personal rather than corporate purposes, (4) overlap in ownership, officers, directors, and personnel, (5) common office space, address and telephone numbers of corporate entities, (6) the amount of business discretion displayed by the allegedly dominated corporation, (7) whether the related corporations deal with the dominated corporation at [arm's] length, (8) whether the corporations are treated as independent profit centers, (9) the payment or guarantee of debts of the dominated corporation by other corporations in the group, and (10) whether the corporation in question had property that was used by other of the corporations as if it were its own.
Passalacqua Builders, 933 F.2d at 139 ; Clipper Wonsild Tankers Holding A/S v. Biodiesel Ventures, LLC, 851 F.Supp.2d 504, 509-10 (S.D.N.Y. 2012).
23. There is no rule about how many factors must be met to warrant piercing the corporate veil; rather, "the general principle guiding courts in determining whether to pierce the corporate veil has been that liability is imposed when doing so would achieve an equitable result." Williamson v. Recovery Ltd. P'ship, 542 F.3d 43, 53 (2d Cir. 2008) (quotation marks omitted).
24. The facts of this case warrant piercing the corporate veil. See generally, Findings of Fact, supra, at ¶¶ 62, 91, 107, 139; see, e.g.,
(1) Lack of corporate formalities, id. at ¶¶ 89, 156-160;
(2) Inadequate capitalization, id. at ¶¶ 29, 85, 88, 120, 144;
(3) Intermingling of funds, id. at ¶¶ 63-66, 69, 104;
(4) Overlap in ownership, officers, directors, and personnel, id. at ¶¶ 50-54, 61, 99, 113-114, 121-122;
(5) Common office space and addresses, id. at ¶¶ 7-16, 18-20, 76;
(6) Lack of business discretion, id. at ¶¶ 125-128;
(7) Lack of arm's length dealing, id. at ¶¶ 63-69, 82;
(8) Corporate entities not treated as individual profit centers, id. at ¶¶ 63-69, 104;
(9) Payment or guarantee of debts between the defendants, id. at ¶¶ 53-57, 82, 129-135; and *392(10) Intermingling of property, id. at ¶¶ 76, 154.
25. Indeed, this case is factually similar to NYKCool A.B. v. Pacific International Services, Inc., in which a court in this District applied factors mirroring the Passalacqua Builders factors to hold a web of alter ego defendants liable for a maritime arbitration award against the parent company defendant. See No. 12cv5754, 2013 WL 1274561, at *8-12 (S.D.N.Y. Mar. 29, 2013), aff'd sub nom. NYKCool A.B. v. Ecuadorian Line, Inc., 562 F. App'x 45. In NYKCool, as in this case, each of the ten factors weighed toward piercing the corporate veil. See id. at *9-10.
26. The web of appearing Coronis family controlled alter ego defendants are liable for the English Judgment against Primera, namely Sonic Finance Inc., Mirage Finance Inc., Handy Finance Inc., Pasha Finance Inc., Movida Finance Inc., Element Finance Inc., Caldera Marine Co. Ltd., Adalia Marine Co. Ltd., Seasatin Navigation Inc., Annamar Navigation Inc., Seasafe Navigation Inc., Chemnav Inc., Primebulk Shipmanagement Ltd., Bulknav Inc., and Chemnav Shipmanagement Ltd. See Passalacqua Builders, 933 F.2d at 139-40 ; NYKCool, 2013 WL 1274561 at *8-12.
27. Therefore, all of the defendants - both the nonappearing defendants and the appearing defendants - are liable for the English Judgment against Primera.
D. Liability of Primebulk as a Successor-in-Interest to Primera
28. In addition to holding Primebulk liable as an alter ego of Primera, d'Amico Dry seeks to hold Primebulk liable as the successor-in-interest to Primera.7
29. "New York ... recognizes that when one company sells or transfers all of its assets to another company, the acquiring company generally does not become liable for the debts or liabilities of the seller/transferor.... New York also recognize[s] four exceptions to this rule: (1) where the buyer expressly assumed the debt at issue; (2) where the transaction was undertaken to defraud creditors; (3) where the transaction constitutes a de facto merger; or (4) where the successor is a mere continuation of the predecessor." Tommy Lee Handbags Mfg. Ltd. v. 1948 Corp., 971 F.Supp.2d 368, 378 (S.D.N.Y. 2013) (citation omitted).8
*39330. Generally, successor-in-interest liability "attaches to a corporation as a mere continuance only when one corporation survives the transaction"; that is, where the predecessor corporation is extinguished. NYKCool, 2013 WL 1274561 at *13 (quotation marks omitted). But courts have made exceptions to this rule where "it appeared that the successor corporation was created to avoid liability to the plaintiff, or where the predecessor corporation continued only as a shell and conducted no business." Id.
31. In this case, Primera transferred its assets to Primebulk, a corporation created apparently to avoid liability to d'Amico Dry for the English Judgment. See Findings of Fact, supra, at ¶¶ 72-78, 83, 91. After the transfer, Primera continued to exist as a corporation, but only as a shell devoid of assets. See id. Therefore, Primera's continued existence does not preclude Primebulk's liability as a successor-in-interest to Primera under a mere continuance theory.
32. To determine whether Primebulk is a mere continuance of Primera, the Court assesses four factors:
(1) continuity of ownership; (2) cessation of ordinary business and dissolution of the acquired corporation as soon as possible; (3) assumption by the purchaser of the liabilities ordinarily necessary for the uninterrupted continuation of the business of the acquired corporation; and (4) continuity of management, personnel, physical location, assets, and general business operation.
NYKCool, 2013 WL 1274561 at *12-14.
33. Each factor supports holding Primebulk liable as a successor-in-interest under the mere continuance theory: (1) Primera transferred its business to Primebulk without consideration while maintaining similarities in ownership, see Findings of Fact, supra, at ¶¶ 76-78; (2) Primera then became a shell, devoid of assets, see id. at ¶¶ 76-78, 83, 91; (3) Primebulk assumed some of Primera's liabilities (along with other alter ego entities) - although not Primera's debt to d'Amico Dry - and continued Primera's business without interruption, see id. at ¶¶ 76-88, 91; and (4) Primebulk and Primera share the same leaders, personnel, location, assets, and general business, see id.
34. Primebulk is liable for the English Judgment as Primera's successor-in-interest.
E. Interest and Attorney's Fees
35. As part of the English Judgment, postjudgment interest has accrued at a rate of 8 percent per annum, in accordance with English law, since June 19, 2009.
36. When determining the interest rate to be applied when enforcing a foreign judgment, courts generally apply the interest rate set forth in the foreign country judgment under the law of the rendering court. See, e.g., Armada (Singapore) Pte Ltd. v. N. China Shipping Co. Ltd. (BVI), No. 09cv5069, 2010 WL 481061, at *4 (S.D.N.Y. Jan. 14, 2010) (applying the 8 percent per annum English judgment interest as "pre-judgment" interest to the enforcement action); Dynamic Cassette Int'l Ltd. v. Mike Lopez & Assocs., 923 F.Supp. 8, 10, 12 (E.D.N.Y. 1996) (applying 8 percent per annum English judgment interest from the date of the entry of the English judgment to the entry of the federal court judgment on that English judgment), report and recommendation adopted, Dkt. No. 17, E.D.N.Y. April 24, 1996.
37. d'Amico Dry is entitled to the interest that has accrued at a rate of 8 percent per annum on the English Judgment after it was entered on June 19, 2009.
*39438. After judgment is entered in this case, postjudgment interest shall accrue at the rate set forth in 28 U.S.C. § 1961.
39. The English Judgment and the FFA also provided for future legal fees incurred in collecting the judgment. Ex. 1; Ex. 31 at 88; Ex. 104; Stipulated Fact ¶ 39.
40. d'Amico Dry is awarded the legal fees and costs incurred in its efforts to enforce the English Judgment. These costs and fees are to be assessed in accordance with Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 54(d).
CONCLUSION
The Court has considered all of the arguments raised by the parties. To the extent not specifically addressed, the arguments are either moot or without merit.
d'Amico Dry's request for a default judgment against Paul Coronis, Nicholas Coronis, Primera Ocean Services S.A., and J.P.C. Investments S.A. is granted .
