Proof of Claim

MUFG Bank, Ltd., The Norinchukin Bank, and Société Générale Settlement

  1. You are included in the Settlement Class if you are an individual or entity that directly purchased certain U.S. Dollar LIBOR-Based Instruments from Bank of America, Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi, Barclays, Citibank, Credit Suisse, Deutsche Bank, HBOS, HSBC, JPMorgan Chase, Lloyds, Norinchukin, Rabobank, Royal Bank of Canada, Royal Bank of Scotland, Société Générale, UBS, and Portigon (or their subsidiaries or affiliates) in the United States; and owned the U.S. Dollar LIBOR-Based Instruments at any time between August 2007 and May 2010.
  2. To recover as an Authorized Claimant from this Settlement based on your claim in the action entitled In re LIBOR Based Financial Instruments Antitrust Litigation, MDL No. 2262 (NRB), pending in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, involving plaintiffs who entered into over-the-counter financial derivative and non-derivative instruments directly with Defendants (the “OTC Action”), you must complete a Proof of Claim form (unless you previously submitted a valid claim in a prior settlement in this action, as discussed below). If you fail to submit a properly completed and addressed Proof of Claim form, your claim may be rejected and you may be precluded from any recovery from the Net Settlement Fund created in connection with the Settlement with MUFG Bank (f/k/a Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi), Norinchukin, and Société Générale. You need not have purchased the U.S. Dollar LIBOR Based Instruments from MUFG Bank, Norinchukin, or Société Générale in order to submit a Proof of Claim in this Settlement.

    NOTE: If you previously completed and submitted a valid Proof of Claim in the prior Barclays Settlement, Citibank Settlement, or Deutsche Bank/HSBC Settlements, you do not need to submit a Proof of Claim for this Settlement with MUFG Bank, Norinchukin, and Société Générale unless you wish to modify or supplement that previously submitted Proof of Claim. If you do not supplement your Proof of Claim, your payment will be calculated based on your most recent submission in the prior settlements.
  3. Options for Submitting a Proof of Claim Form:
    1. You can complete this Proof of Claim through this Settlement Website no later than FEBRUARY 10, 2024.
    2. You can mail your completed and signed Proof of Claim postmarked no later than FEBRUARY 10, 2024 to:
      U.S. Dollar LIBOR Settlement
      c/o Claims Administrator
      1650 Arch Steet, Suite 2210
      Philadelphia, PA 19103
  4. If you are not an OTC Class Member (as defined in the Notice), DO NOT submit a Proof of Claim form.
  5. If you are an OTC Class Member and have not requested exclusion, you will be bound by the terms of the Settlement and any judgment entered in the OTC Action, WHETHER OR NOT YOU SUBMIT A PROOF OF CLAIM FORM.
  6. If you previously filed a valid Proof of Claim in connection with any of the prior Settlements in the OTC Action, and do not wish to modify or supplement your prior Proof of Claim (or, if you previously filed multiple Proof of Claim forms, you do not wish to modify or supplement your most recent Proof of Claim), you need not take any further action.
  7. If you previously submitted a valid Proof of Claim in connection with any of the prior Settlements in the OTC Action and you wish to modify or supplement your original Proof of Claim (for example, if you wish to provide additional information with respect to U.S. Dollar LIBOR-Based Instruments that were not previously validated), you must email the Administrator at Info@RabobankLiborSettlement.com.
  8. If you have not previously submitted a Proof of Claim in connection with any of the prior Settlements in the OTC Action, you must check the appropriate box under Part I, and complete Parts II through VI.
  9. If you purchased or otherwise acquired U.S. Dollar LIBOR-Based Instruments and held them in your name, you are the beneficial purchaser as well as the record purchaser. If, however, you purchased the U.S. Dollar LIBOR-Based Instruments, but they were registered in the name of a third party, such as a nominee or brokerage firm, you are the beneficial purchaser, and the third party is the record purchaser.
  10. Use Part I of this form entitled “Claimant Identification” to identify the record purchaser (“nominee”), if different from the beneficial purchaser of U.S. Dollar LIBOR-Based Instruments which form the basis of this claim. THIS CLAIM MUST BE FILED BY THE ACTUAL BENEFICIAL PURCHASER OR PURCHASERS, OR THE LEGAL REPRESENTATIVE OF SUCH A PURCHASER OR PURCHASERS OF THE INSTRUMENTS UPON WHICH THIS CLAIM IS BASED.

    NOTE: A single Proof of Claim should be submitted on behalf of one legal entity including all transactions made by that entity, no matter how many separate accounts that entity has.
  11. Use Part III of this form entitled “Schedule of U.S. Dollar LIBOR-Based Instruments” to supply all required details of your transaction(s).
  12. On the schedules, provide all of the requested information with respect to all of your purchases or other acquisitions of U.S. Dollar LIBOR-Based Instruments which were held at any time from August 1, 2007 through May 31, 2010, inclusive. Failure to report all such transactions may result in the rejection of your claim.
  13. List each transaction separately and in chronological order, by trade date, beginning with the earliest. You must accurately provide the month, day, and year of each transaction you list.
  14. You must supply the name of the counterparty for each transaction you list in Part III. To qualify for a claim, you must have purchased at least one U.S. Dollar LIBOR-Based Instrument in the United States directly from a Defendant (or a Defendant’s subsidiary or affiliate), and owned that instrument any time during the period August 2007 through May 2010 (the “Class Period”).

  17. A Proof of Claim received by the Claims Administrator shall be deemed to have been submitted when posted, if mailed by February 10, 2024 and if a postmark is indicated on the envelope and it is mailed first class, and addressed in accordance with the above instructions. In all other cases, a Proof of Claim shall be deemed to have been submitted when actually received by the Claims Administrator.
  18. You should be aware that it will take a significant amount of time to process fully all of the Proofs of Claim and to administer the Settlement.

DOCUMENTATION TO SUPPORT YOUR TRANSACTIONS IN U.S. DOLLAR LIBOR-BASED INSTRUMENTS IS NOT REQUIRED AT THIS TIME, HOWEVER, THE CLAIMS ADMINISTRATOR MAY ASK YOU TO PROVIDE DOCUMENTATION OR OTHER INFORMATION TO SUBSTANTIATE YOUR TRANSACTIONS AT A LATER DATE.

List all U.S. Dollar LIBOR-Based Instruments you purchased in the United States directly from a Defendant (or a Defendant’s subsidiary or affiliate), and which you owned any time during the period August 2007 through May 2010. You should only list the information for the leg of the swap (or bond) where you received LIBOR-based payments from a Defendant during the Class Period, unless the instrument is a basis swap, in which case you should list both legs. The Settlement does not include U.S. Dollar LIBOR-based instruments that include only a term, provision, or obligation or right to pay interest based on the U.S. Dollar LIBOR rate, such as business, home, student, or car loans, or credit cards. If you have an instrument for which you cannot fit the terms in the space below, attach the instrument separately and describe the terms of the LIBOR-based payments on a separate page. If you do not know every term for a transaction, fill in the form with as many fields for which you know the answer.
