How to file this claim

You must submit a Proof of Claim and Release form — doing nothing means you receive no payment and lose your right to sue. You will need brokerage records proving your Hortonworks stock transactions and holdings during the class period.

  1. Confirm you purchased or acquired Hortonworks common stock between August 5, 2015, and January 15, 2016, both dates inclusive
  2. Gather broker confirmation slips, monthly statements, 1099s, or dividend reinvestment statements covering your Hortonworks transactions and balances
  3. Download the Proof of Claim and Release Form from the administrator's website
  4. Complete the form with your transaction details and attach supporting documentation
  5. Submit the completed form postmarked by the claims filing deadline

Documents you'll need

Watch out for

  • Submitting the form without supporting documentation will likely result in rejection — brokerage records are required
  • If you exclude yourself from the settlement, you cannot also file a claim or object
  • Doing nothing means you receive no payment AND you give up your rights to sue the released parties

We prepare — you file on the official site yourself. This is not legal advice and is not an eligibility decision; the administrator and court decide.
