IMPORTANT DEADLINE INFORMATION ON NOI SETTLEMENTS
A settlement has been reached between the Claims Advisory Committee and Dow Corning which allows Notice of Intent (NOI) Claimants to have their claims for Explant, Rupture and Expedited Release processed and if, eligible, paid. If a NOI claimant has already filed an Explant, Rupture or Expedited Release, they do not need to do anything to accept the NOI Settlement.
The SF-DCT has sent out an “Acceptance of NOI Settlement” form to all eligible NOI claimants. You can also download a copy of this form on the Claimant Advisory Committee’s web site. If you want the SF-DCT to expedite the review and payment of your claim, you will need to complete the “Acceptance of NOI Settlement” form and mail it to the SF-DCT. When the SF-DCT receives the form, they will review your claim, and if approved, will issue payment in accordance with the Consent Order and the Plan.
