Network / Omnibus Account Information
If you maintained an omnibus account or network account with the Deutsche/Scudder Defendants and that account purchased and/or held shares in the Deutsche/Scudder Settlement Funds during the Class Period, you may provide underlying sub-account information and contact information for beneficial owner(s) to the Claims Administrator and the Claims administrator will perform calculations to determine which beneficial owner(s), if any, should receive payments in accordance with the Plan of Allocation and will distribute such payments. If you choose not to provide underlying sub-account information and contact information, you will receive a payment in accordance with the Plan of Allocation described above along with instructions to distribute the payment to the beneficial owner(s) in compliance with your fiduciary duties and other legal obligations. Distribution of this payment to the beneficial owner(s) on whose behalf you are nominee should be made in accordance with the beneficial owners’ pro rata ownership of the particular Deutsche/Scudder Settlement Fund and the requirements of the Plan of Allocation.
