Important and time-sensitive information is set out below for investors who held National Housing Act Mortgage-Backed Securities (“NHA MBS”) issued by the Bank of Montreal (“BMO”) at any point in time between November 1998 and May 2003 (the “Claim Period”). These securities were guaranteed by Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation (“CMHC”).
As a result of a recalculation of indemnity payments owing in various pools of NHA MBS, a total of approximately C$2.5 million (including interest) is available for distribution. If you held the NHA MBS issued by BMO at any point during the Claim Period you may be entitled to an additional payment.
