FREQUENTLY
ASKED QUESTIONS (FAQs)
1.
WHAT DO I NEED TO DO NOW IN RESPONSE TO THE
NOTICE?
•
Fill out and mail back the Consent Form
IMMEDIATELY. To be included in the Age Discrimination
part of the case, you must mail back the Consent Form in
the prepaid, self-addressed envelope that came with the
Notice. If you mail it back by the deadline, your claim
will automatically be part of the case.
•
Also request the Questionnaire that you
will complete and mail back so that the retirees’ legal
team can review whether you also have another possible
claim – for “Breach of Fiduciary Duty”.
This claim is described on Page
Two of your mailing. Your lawyers will review
your completed Questionnaire and then discuss with you
whether that claim can also be added to the case.
•
Right now, you are only in the case as a Class
Member for the claim to restore your retiree medical and
life insurance benefits under just one part of the
federal pension law. To fully protect your rights with
additional claims, you should:
o
(1) immediately mail back the Consent
Form to join the age discrimination claim, and
o
(2) Press [Zero]
and ask for, complete, and mail back the
Questionnaire that we will send you so your legal
team can review whether you can also make a claim for
Breach of Fiduciary Duty.
•
Please read the Notice for more information.
AGE
DISCRIMINATION CLAIM
2.
WHY SHOULD I MAIL BACK THE CONSENT FORM?
•
Your lawyers are strongly urging you to mail the
Consent Form to fully protect your rights in this case,
and give you the best chance to receive the best outcome
from this case.
•
If you do not mail back a completed Consent Form,
you can’t and won’t benefit from the claim for age
discrimination under the federal Age Discrimination law.
•
The age discrimination claim includes a request
to the Court for a double monetary award. If you don’t
send in your Consent Form on time, your lawyers cannot
make this claim for you and you will lose the chance to
benefit from this additional claim.
3.
What If I doN’T complete and return the Consent
Form?
•
You will be giving up your opportunity to protect
your rights under some of the laws that other retirees
in this case are pursuing. This would also mean giving
up your opportunity to receive the best possible outcome
in this case.
4.
WHEN DO I NEED TO SEND IN MY CONSENT FORM?
•
Immediately.
•
The Consent Form must be received at the
post office box by June 27, 2011, so you should send it
back NOW. To avoid problems with delays in the mail, we
are urging you to send it back now.
BREACH OF FIDUCIARY DUTY CLAIM
5.
WHY SHOULD I ASK FOR A QUESTIONNAIRE
ON THE BREACH OF FIDUCIARY DUTY
CLAIM DESCRIBED ON PAGE 2 OF MY MAILING?
•
The Questionnaire will provide your
lawyers with the information they need to see whether
you have a basis to make the additional claim for
“Breach of Fiduciary Duty”.
•
You may have a basis to make a claim for Breach
of Fiduciary Duty if the Company made either oral or
written statements that led you to believe that your
medical and/or life insurance benefits from the company
were for life or for your entire retirement.
•
Your lawyers strongly urge you to request the
Questionnaire, to fill it out promptly, and send it
back as soon as possible. Sending in both the
Consent Form and requesting and returning your
completed Questionnaire will protect all your
rights in this case.
•
If you do not request and return a
completed Questionnaire, then your legal team can’t
consider whether you have a basis to make a claim for
Breach of Fiduciary Duty. Under court rules you will be
barred from filing this claim later.
•
Please press [Zero]
now to ask for a Questionnaire.
