Industrial Carriers Inc. (“ICI”) and Weaver Investment Inc. (“Weaver”) (collectively, “defendants”). Transfield was simultaneously pursuing arbitration in London against ICI, but not against Weaver, based on an underlying maritime charter agreement. (Transfield alleged in the arbitration that it paid ICI $4,331,250.00 for the delivery of the M.V. Cape Heron, but that ICI never delivered the vessel.) ICI, but not Weaver, had registered as a corporation with the New York Department of State in November 2005, years before the commencement of this litig , then Weaver would have been “found within the district” owing to ICI’s registration with the New York Department of State, see STX Panocean (UK) Co., Ltd. v. Glory Wealth Shipping Pte Ltd., 560 F.3d 127, 133 (2d Cir.2009) (<HOLDING>). On April 17, 2009, the District Court vacated
