Determination of Recognized Claims

The amount of compensation shall be determined in accordance with the Plan of Allocation. Each Eligible Claimant's Recognized Loss is determined by the calculations outlined in the Plan of Allocation. If the Net Available Distribution Fund is less than the sum of the Recognized Losses of all Eligible Claimants, each Eligible Claimant's distribution amount will equal his, her or its "Pro Rata Percentage" of the Net Available Distribution Fund. If an Eligible Claimant's Pro Rata Percentage is less than the Minimum Distribution Amount of $10, that Eligible Claimant will be deemed ineligible to receive a Distribution Payment. Further, an Eligible Claimant's distribution amount will be no larger than his, her, or its Recognized Loss minus the amount of any compensation for the loss that resulted from the conduct described in the Order that was received from another source (e.g., class action settlement), to the extent known by the Fund Administrator ("Prior Recovery"), plus any Reasonable Interest awarded. That is, the distribution amount will be capped at the Recognized Loss less the Prior Recovery, plus any Reasonable Interest awarded.
