BENEFITS FOR QUEBEC SETTLEMENT CLASS MEMBERS

The monies allocated to the Quebec Action net of court-approved lawyers’ fees, administration expenses and funder entitlements will be distributed to eligible Quebec Settlement Class Members in accordance with the Court-approved Distribution Protocol available on the Settlement Website.

Quebec Settlement Class Members who purchased Packaged Bread for personal use and not for resale must submit a claim for a proportionate share of settlement compensation from the Quebec Consumer Fund established by the Distribution Protocol. The amount of compensation payable to each claimant will depend on the number of claims approved by the Quebec Settlement Administrators.
