Now, it can be amended and presumably will be. But the class is defined as purchasers between Dec 14, 2006 and March 14, 2008. Not us.

If so, what is it?

Harry Susman (w) (c) From: Darren Indyke < To: Harry Susman Sent: Thu Sep 16 12:32:56 2010 Subject: Privileged and Confidential - Bear Steams Harry, As part of the proposed settlement, we are being asked with withdraw the MDL Action in the Southern District relating to the Bear Steams Stock and to refrain from refiling or commencing any other litigation relating to the same, but we are not precluded from participating in what Bear Steams is referring to the Securities Class Action, provided that we cannot opt out and cannot oppose any settlement reached in that Class Action. In the settlement agreement, the Securities Class Action is defined as follows: WHEREAS, a putative securities class action against The Bear Steams Companies, Inc. and related defendants is currently pending in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, captioned In re Bear Stearns Companies, Inc. Securities, Derivative, and ERISA Litigation, Master File No. 08 MDL 1963 (RWS), Securities Action, No. 08 Civ. 2793 (RWS) (the "Securities Class Action"), alleging misrepresentations in connection with Bear Stearns Securities; My question to you is are we still entitled to participate in this class action. Did we lose the right by filing our action? Was there any deadline for us to be file anything to participate in this action? Etc. I don't want to give up the right to sue re the stock if we have already lost the ability to participate in the Securities Class Action. Also, I want to make certain that the Securities Class Action listed in the settlement agreement is in EFTA00433966 fact the right class action. I don't want to state that we are not precluded from participating in this particular class action if it is not the right one and we should have referenced a different one in the Settlement Agreement. This is obviously time sensitive, so please let me know asap. Thanks.

Might inflame your buddy at Chase but also might send a signal you are serious and if we aren't going to get a deal, we need to get moving if we have any hope of keeping our hearing date.
