Class Action Claims Sample Clauses

Class Action Claims. We will, in our sole discretion, determine what role we will take in any legal proceedings affecting any securities held in your Account. BPIC has engaged Broadridge Investor Communication Solutions, Inc. (“Broadridge”) to file claims on your behalf in certain securities class action lawsuits and disgorgements ordered by Canadian or U.S. regulators identified by Broadridge (“Class Action Service”). It is intended that the Class Action Service will commence in January 2022. You will be automatically enrolled in this Class Action Service once it commences or the date on which you opened your Account, whichever is later. Broadridge’s fee for this service is a contingency fee of 10% of any of the class action recoveries you receive through the Class Action Service, which fee will be deducted from any recoveries that are credited to your Account. We will not charge you our own fee, and do not receive any direct fee from Broadridge, with respect to the Class Action Service with Broadridge. If you wish for your Account to be removed from the Class Action Service, please speak with your Investment Counsellor. Prior to the commencement of the Class Action Service, and for any eligible class actions not part of the Class Action Service, or in the event that BPIC’s engagement with Broadridge is terminated, we may, in our sole discretion process class action claims on your behalf or may enlist another company or firm to exercise such discretion (a “Third Party”). The actions in the Class Action Service shall be limited to “opt- out” cases and eligibility to participate in the class is based solely on sales and purchases of securities in your Account. Under the Class Action Service, claims will only be filed once a court or administrative order has been issued that sets forth a claim filing deadline. An “opt-out” case means all eligible security holders are automatically considered to be part of the class and if an individual does not wish to be part of the class action lawsuit, they must actively opt-out of the class. The Class Action Service will only cover those securities that were purchased while you were a client of BPIC. It will not include securities that you purchased other than through BPIC. For the avoidance of doubt, the Class Action Service does not include any lawsuit which requires prospective class members to provide additional evidence of eligibility other than purchases and sales of the applicable security, including but not limited to evidence of act...

Class Action Claims. BPIC and the Custodian will, in their sole discretion, determine what role they will take in any legal proceedings affecting any securities held in the Account. It is not BPIC’s current practice to take the role of lead plaintiff on class actions but BPIC may in its sole discretion decide to do so in the future. However, BPIC may, in its sole discretion, if the Client is an eligible member of a class, process class action claims on the Client’s behalf or, may enlist Section One: BMO Private Investment Counsel Inc. Client Account Agreement (cont’d...) another company or firm in respect of exercising such discretion. Accordingly, BPIC may handle all pendency notices (notices of pending class action group filings/formations) and proof of claim forms (forms for the Client to complete and return to the class actions administrator or other designated party in order to claim the Client’s portion of the proposed settlement) in connection with a class action involving a security held in the Account. Notwithstanding the above, BPIC will not process any class action claims on the Client’s behalf or take any action whatsoever with respect to class actions if the Account is closed. Accordingly, the Client has an obligation to keep track of class actions in the event that his/her Account is closed. BPIC may charge the Client a reasonable fee for the filing of each class action claim, which filing fee, if any, will be charged quarterly. There may be instances where BPIC believes in good faith that the proceeds of settlement of a class action claim may not cover the filing fee. In such instances, BPIC may, in its discretion, choose not to file the class action claim on the Client’s behalf.

Class Action Claims. M&I will assess a fee to research and process security class action settlement claims where M&I held custody of the security at the time the claim arose. For relationships with accounts on M&I’s Trust Accounting System at the time the class action proceeds are received, M&I will charge $75 per class action per trust account holder. For relationships where the account is no longer on M&I’s Trust Accounting System due to account closing, investment manager removal or transfer to a successor provider M&I will charge $150 per class action per trust account holder. For successive class action settlement proceeds received with respect to a previously filed claim of the issuer, M&I will charge $50 where the account is active on our Trust Accounting System and $100 for relationships where the account has been closed under the scenarios described above. These fees will be netted against the settlement proceeds credited to the account. M&I will not assess a fee where a prior provider held the security subject to the class action at the time the claim arose, collected the settlement proceeds, and forwarded the settlement to M&I as a successor provider.
