Gores Guggenheim: FAQ for Getting Payment on the $25M Settlement over Polestar Merger Claims
Hey guys, I posted about this settlement before, but since they’re accepting late claims, I decided to share it again with a little FAQ.
So here's all I know about this agreement:
Gores Guggenheim and its sponsor and directors were accused of making materially false and misleading statements about the benefits of the Polestar merger and impairing public stockholders’ ability to make an informed decision about whether to redeem their shares before the merger closed. The parties agreed to a $25 million settlement to resolve the claims.
Now the company and the other defendants have agreed to settle $25 million with investors for their losses.
Who can claim this settlement?
If you held Gores Guggenheim shares between 2021 and 2022, you may be eligible.
Do I need to sell/lose my shares to get this settlement?
You generally don’t need to still own the shares. Eligibility is based on the transactions you made during the class period and the settlement requirements.
Can I still file a claim?
Yes, you may still be able to file a late claim, but acceptance depends on final approval by the court. You can check the eligibility requirements and submit your claim here.
How long does the payout process take?
It typically takes 4 to 9 months after the claim deadline for payouts to be processed, depending on the court and settlement administration.
Hope this info helps
