Merchant Advisory on the MasterCard Agreement to Prepay Future Payments at a Discount
Dear Merchants,
Constantine Cannon LLP, Co-Lead Counsel for
Lead Counsel reached an agreement with MasterCard International Incorporated ("MasterCard") whereby, subject to court approval, MasterCard will prepay the remaining payments agreed to in the
Lead Counsel has advised the court that it believes that this Agreement will be more beneficial to Class Members than proceeding with the securitization of MasterCard's remaining payment obligations. The Agreement equates to a discount rate of approximately 8% on an annual basis and it eliminates all market risk, while offering numerous other advantages not available in the context of the securitization. As with the securitization, if the court approves the agreement, Lead Counsel will be able to make lump-sum distributions of the residual MasterCard payments to Class Members with approved claims instead of making installment payments over the next four years of any residual amounts.
