THE DEADLINE TO SUBMIT A CERTIFICATION FORM IS 11:59 P.M. EST ON August 7, 2025.
Eligibility:
You may be eligible for a payment from the Chatham Fair Fund if:
- You paid excess performance and management fees during the Relevant Period;
- Your approved transactions calculate to a Recognized Loss equal to or greater than the Minimum Distribution Amount of $25.00, as calculated under the Plan;
- You are not an Excluded Party; and
- You timely submitted a valid Certification Form.
You are excluded from participation in the Chatham Fair Fund if you are an Excluded Party as defined in the
Plan.
Considerations and Preparation:
To be considered for eligibility for a Distribution Payment from the Chatham Fair Fund, you must provide the information requested in the Certification Form and submit a release through this website or via mail. Failure to submit the completed form so that it is submitted or postmarked by the August 7, 2025 Certification Form Deadline, as set forth in the Plan, may result in your Certification Form being rejected and you being precluded from any recovery from the Chatham Fair Fund.
Timely submission of your Certification Form does not guarantee you will be eligible for a Distribution Payment from the Chatham Fair Fund or that you will be compensated for your claimed loss.
Please fill out the Certification Form completely. After submission of the Certification Form, you may be requested to provide documentation to support your Certification Form. Failure to completely fill out the Certification Form or timely provide all requested documentation will result in rejection of your Certification Form.
