ORDER ACCEPTING REPORT OF SPECIAL COUNSEL AND PROVIDING FOR EFFECTIVENESS OF SETTLEMENT
ALVIN K. HELLERSTEIN, District Judge:
I conducted a hearing on December 22, 2010, to consider and regulate two issues necessary to be resolved to consummate the Affirmation of Final Settlement as provided by § XXII of the Settlement Process Agreement, As Amended ("SPA"): (1) the report by the Special Counsel, appointed by my Order of November 24, 2010, concerning the intentions of persons on the Eligible Plaintiffs List ("EPL") of the SPA (a) to enter into the settlement, (b) to opt out of the settlement and to continue with their cases, or (c) to dismiss their cases, or have their cases dismissed, with prejudice; and (2) issues to be resolved prior to the Parties' readiness to execute the Affirmation of Final Settlement Agreement. After hearing the parties, I rule as follows:
1. The written report of the Special Counsel, Michael Hoenig, Esq., and Herzfeld & Rubin, P.C., is accepted and ordered to be filed. The report is attached as Exhibit D to this Order. Mr. Hoenig's conclusions are the subjects of the rulings that follow.
2. The Special Counsel communicated, and exerted best efforts to communicate, *637 with 546 Eligible Plaintiffs, as defined and identified by the SPA, who had not expressed an intention regarding the settlement. This pool included all individuals who had voluntarily dismissed their claims pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 41 prior to his appointment. The Special Counsel's efforts have produced the following results:
a. 45 Plaintiffs have stated their intentions to be added to the list of Plaintiffs opting into the settlement. The Special Counsel has provided this information to Plaintiffs' regular counsel, and I am advised that Plaintiffs' regular counsel have transmitted the appropriate paperwork for these Plaintiffs to counsel for the WTC Captive Insurance Company, who have included these Plaintiffs in the settlement.
b. 29 Plaintiffs opted out of the settlement with the intention to continue with their cases. These 29, and the approximately 123 others who previously expressed their intentions to continue with their cases, will be the subjects of a status conference I have scheduled to be held February 2, 2011, at 2:15 pm.
c. 48 plaintiffs asked that their cases be dismissed. All 48 were made aware that all dismissals would be with prejudice, by Court Order. Their cases are being dismissed with prejudice by separate Order pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 41(a)(2).
d. 409 Plaintiffs could not be found, or failed or refused to respond to their lawyers' efforts, and to Special Counsel's efforts to locate and communicate with them. By failing to maintain communications and provide instructions to their attorneys, despite numerous efforts by their lawyers and the Special Counsel whom I appointed, they have failed purposefully and intentionally to prosecute their cases. Their cases are being dismissed with prejudice by separate Order pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 41(b). Consistent with the terms of the dismissal Order, any motion by these Plaintiffs to reinstate their cases, pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 60(b), must be made within 30 days of this Order.
e. 13 individuals presently named as Plaintiffs are deceased, which has led to additional complexities involving the status of their cases. The Special Counsel is presently working to solve the issues arising in these cases, and a report on his progress shall be provided to the Court in due course. These cases shall remain open for the time being.
3. A Plaintiff whose case is dismissed with prejudice is to be removed from the EPL. Accordingly, the Plaintiffs dismissed pursuant to this order and the companion orders also issued today, 457 in number, are to be subtracted from the EPL. See SPA § VI.A.
4. Although counted among the settling Plaintiffs, some Plaintiffs have had deficiencies in their individual settlement documents, and the parties have been working to clear up these deficiencies to ensure a complete release and an initiation of settlement payments. These Plaintiffs are subject to the following orders.
a. 52 Plaintiffs, including Derivative Plaintiffs, although clearly expressing their intention to settle and to release and not to sue Defendants in accordance with the SPA, have done so by documents containing *638 various imperfections. A list of these Plaintiffs is attached as Exhibit APrimary Plaintiffs and Exhibit ADerivative Plaintiffs ("Exhibits A"). I rule that the imperfections and deficiencies do not diminish or undermine the legal effect of the documents. The 27 Primary Plaintiffs and 25 Derivative Plaintiffs identified on the respective Exhibits A are hereby deemed to have executed legally binding Releases and Second Injury Letters, and the Primary Plaintiffs have opted into the settlement for purposes of satisfying the Opt-In Threshold. Primary Plaintiffs and Derivative Plaintiffs on Exhibits A also are eligible to receive all payments due them under the Final Settlement Agreement, and are bound by the terms and conditions of the releases as set forth in Exhibit P to the SPA.
b. Another group of Plaintiffs, including Derivative Plaintiffs, although also having evidenced their intention to settle, have failed to execute properly the appropriate documents. A list of 79 Primary Plaintiffs in this category is attached as Exhibit B, and a list of 288 Derivative Plaintiffs in this category is attached as Exhibit C. With regard to these Plaintiffs, I rule as follows.
(i) Primary Plaintiffs identified on Exhibit B shall be deemed to have opted into the SPA for purposes of satisfying the Opt-In Threshold, but shall not receive any payments under the SPA until their respective deficiencies have been cured, or until further order of the Court. Fees or expenses relating to such Plaintiffs shall not be paid until the deficiencies are cured. The Parties shall attempt to resolve any disputes over deficiencies with the assistance of the Special Masters before seeking relief from the Court.
(ii) Derivative Plaintiffs identified on Exhibit C have claims that derive and depend upon the claim of their settling spouse, who is the Primary Plaintiff. Each of these Derivative Plaintiffs has a Primary Plaintiff spouse who either (a) has executed a proper release, or (b) is listed on Exhibit B. All such Derivative Plaintiffs' shall cure the deficiencies in their derivative releases before January 14, 2011. The related Primary Plaintiffs shall be deemed to have opted into the SPA for purposes of satisfying the Opt In Threshold, and the related Primary Plaintiffs' claims will be evaluated by the Allocation Neutral. If any issues arise from separation or divorce, or from the death of spouses, those should be brought to the attention of the Allocation Neutral and the Parties by January 14, 2011, so that any necessary set-aside of derivative awards can be paid to the appropriate court. If, by January 14, 2011, the deficiencies are not remedied in accordance with this Order, the derivative claims may be dismissed with prejudice.
5. The SPA provides additional compensation to the settling Plaintiffs if the overall opt-in rate exceeds the minimum required threshold, ninetyfive percent of Eligible Plaintiffs. For every additional one percent over the minimum, the WTC Captive Insurance Company must pay an additional two percent of the base settlement amount, or $12.5 million, over and above the base amount of $625 million. At opt-in rates exceeding ninety-eight percent, the WTC Captive Insurance Company must pay *639 two-tenths of one percent (.2 percent) of the base settlement amount for every one-tenth of one percent (.1 percent) over the minimum. This amounts to an added $1.25 million for every one-tenth of one percent (.1 percent) over the 98 percent threshold. See SPA §§ IV.E, II.A. Additional amounts of incentive payments may be available based on other criteria. See id. §§ II.A, IV. The WTC Captive Insurance Company represents that, before adjustment for dismissals, ninety-six and three-tenths percent (96.3 percent) of the Eligible Plaintiffs had opted into the settlement agreement. This figure, however, does not account for dismissals with prejudice provided in today's Orders; these should be removed from the EPL, see SPA § IV.A., and the ratio for calculating the opt-in percentage adjusted. It appears, prima facie, that after removing these dismissed Plaintiffs from the EPL, the final percentage of Plaintiffs who have opted into the settlement exceeds ninety-eight percent. It follows that the amount of incentive payments should be $37.5 million at ninety-eight percent plus whatever fractional percentages over and above ninety-eight percent reflect the actual ratio of settling Plaintiffs to Eligible Plaintiffs who have not been dismissed with prejudice, as well as whatever additional incentive payments may be triggered.
6. Immediately following the report of the WTC Captive Insurance Company, fixing the several numbers identified in this Order, and the entry of this Order, the Affirmation of Final Settlement shall be signed and, as provided by the SPA, the payments thereunder shall duly issue by the Allocation Neutral to the Plaintiffs entitled thereto.
7. The WTC Captive Insurance Company, or any other party feeling aggrieved by any term of this Order or the dismissal Orders also issuing today, may file objections and supporting briefing by January 7, 2011, at 12:00 pm.
SO ORDERED.

Exhibit D
Honorable Alvin K. Hellerstein U.S. District Court for the Southern District of N.Y.

In Re WTC Disaster Litigation

REPORT TO THE COURT:

SPECIAL COUNSEL PROJECT
Dear Judge Hellerstein:
Attached is our Report on the Special Counsel Project assigned to me in your Honor's Order of November 24, 2010. We elaborate the outreach steps considered, the methodology utilized and the results of our communications with some 546 Eligible Plaintiffs who, at the time of our assignment, had not yet opted into the Settlement Process Agreement.
Many hundreds of these had not responded to their lawyers' communications. Your Honor's Order suggested that there were frustrations behind the non-responses. Our contacts with many of these plaintiffs confirmed that.
Based on written response forms returned to us, substantive telephone conferences with plaintiffs or in-person meetings with some, a significant number of Eligible *649 Plaintiffs expressed a decision on how they wished to proceed. The total numbers are as follows:
Opt Ins: 44
Opt Outs: 31
Discontinuances: 47
Three additional written responses came in after the December 17 deadline (two Opt Outs and one Discontinuance).
If you subtract from the 546 Eligible Plaintiffs originally "assigned" to us the 125 who expressed a definitive choice, the number not responding with a decision on how to proceed is 421.
We have back-up and log data for communications, contacts and response/non-response records for each Eligible Plaintiff on the list received from plaintiffs' counsel. If you require, we can generate a spreadsheet.
We received excellent and unreserved cooperation from William H. Groner and Christopher LoPalo of plaintiffs' law firm. They made our task easier, which was much appreciated given the narrow time frame and the large number of persons needing outreach. We mailed to 544 plaintiffs. We telephoned at least 256 plaintiffs, often multiple times. We engaged in substantive telephone discussions with 128 plaintiffs. We met in person with seven individuals in our New York and Long Island offices. These meetings included two of the first plaintiffs who are among the most vocal and critical of the litigation process and settlement plan. We followed up with them at length by telephone several times. Virtually all of the plaintiffs we engaged in substantive discussions were appreciative for the assistance.
I will not specify here the plaintiffs' questions that our team lawyers addressed but there were many and they were quite complex.
In view of our rush to get the Report to you, please consider the foregoing a kind of "Executive Summary." If you wish a more formal Executive Summary, we will be happy to provide it.
Needless to say, if you have any questions we will try to answer them,
Thank you for this challenging assignment and your confidence in our ability to tackle it.
Sincerely,
Michael Hoenig

In Re WTC Disaster Litigation REPORT TO THE COURT:

SPECIAL COUNSEL PROJECT

Introduction
In its Order dated November 24, 2010, the Court assigned to Michael Hoenig, a member of Herzfeld & Rubin, P.C., the task of acting as Special Counsel to hundreds of Eligible Plaintiffs who had not opted into the Settlement Process Agreement (SPA) to assist them in arriving at a decision in their best interests. These Eligible Plaintiffs consisted of several subgroups; persons who could not be located despite diligent efforts; persons who declined to communicate with their counsel; persons who expressed a desire to opt into the SPA but who had not completed their paperwork; and persons who were on the Eligible Plaintiffs list but who expressed a desire to withdraw from the lawsuit.
The Order tasked Special Counsel to assist such Eligible Plaintiffs to come to a decision on the basis of full and fair disclosure of all the benefits and detriments of each choice and to make proper declaration of such choice. The Order called for plaintiffs' law firms to provide assistance and access to their records. Special Counsel's services were to be performed until December 17, 2010 when they would end.
This Report summarizes the activities and methodologies utilized by Special Counsel in implementing the Court's assignment and describes the results of that effort.

1. Initial Flood of Inquiries

The Court's Order on the Special Counsel Project was announced on November 24, the day before Thanksgiving. Almost immediately, Special Counsel was personally deluged by phone calls from persons who were not Eligible Plaintiffs and who misunderstood the Court's Order to be a general extension of a deadline within which to file new claims or lawsuits or to join in pending litigation or to opt into the settlement. They seemingly were misled by news media and press headlines and accounts of a general extension of the litigation deadline to December 17.
Arrangements were made within Special Counsel's office to field such calls on an orderly, courteous basis. Names and contact information were taken and each such person was called thereafter to explain the nature of the deadline and the purposes of the Special Counsel Project. Those persons who needed legal advice were told to call the New York State Bar Association's Attorney Referral Service and were given the number. Contacts from persons not on the Eligible Plaintiffs List continued throughout the Project.
*651 The initial flood of contacts included calls or e-mails from news media reporters wanting to interview Special Counsel or to get details regarding the assignment. Such contacts were not returned for a number of reasons.

2. Initial Steps

Because November 25 was Thanksgiving and the Project involved acquiring expert knowledge of many details in a very short period of time, the initial days were spent obtaining and studying the Settlement Process Agreement (SPA), the cancer insurance policy, The Zadroga Bill, contacting plaintiffs' lawyers, obtaining and studying their various letters to their clients (copy of which were appended to Counsel's reports to the Court of November 17 and 22, 2010), and conferring with Special Master Professor Aaron D. Twerski regarding the history and course of the World Trade Center (WTC) litigation, among other efforts.
Because the Court's Order mentioned that some 520 Eligible Plaintiffs had not opted into the SPA and Special Counsel's assignment would end on December 17, consideration had to be given as to how to reach out to so many non-responding persons within the narrow time frame available and give them the information and advice necessary for them to make a decision in their best interests. We were told that many plaintiffs were not responding to their lawyers and quite a number were not able to be located despite diligent efforts by their counsel. As a result, we had to consider and potentially prepare for personal contacts with hundreds of lay persons to explain legal complexities regarding their rights. And, although under the SPA Eligible Plaintiffs fell into only four tiers or settlement categories, individuals' injury pictures differed and the intricate "point system" applied under the SPA rendered complex the job of explaining many plaintiffs' likely settlement offers plus the possibility of additional settlement amounts. These factors meant that explaining potential high and low settlement values to all individuals could entail personal analyses for each plaintiff, especially in tier 4. Time was thus needed to accommodate advising large numbers of persons.
We resolved to focus on establishing personal contacts with as many Eligible Plaintiffs as we could and to emphasize that we were independent Special Counsel available to help those who wanted such assistance. Because in-person meetings with large numbers of persons were possible, we had to consider the potential of meeting with hundreds of plaintiffs, either individually or in groups. This meant staffing adequately.
Legal complexities abounded. For example, to mention but a few, would opting into the SPA preclude claims for cancers occurring in the future? What would be the effect of the so-called "two-injury" rule the Court had mentioned in an earlier Order? What would be the interface of any of a plaintiff's choices with the benefits accorded under the Zadroga Bill were it to pass? What is the likelihood of success or risk in not settling and continuing on with the lawsuit? How will the Resolution Neutral decide what the plaintiff's settlement amount is? Can one appeal? And so on. These types of questions potentially raised by hundreds of individuals, it was clear, would require a staff of experienced lawyers to counsel those wanting assistance. Because, for many, these were critical crossroads decisions, we also needed paralegals to record and log in all contacts and decisions made by individuals.
Mr. Hoenig assembled a team of seven experienced litigators, one law clerk (awaiting admission to the bar) and a paralegal. The team was briefed extensively *652 by Mr. Hoenig regarding the assignment; the importance of emphasizing our independence and availability to help those wanting it; the nature of the SPA; the insurance policy; the Zadroga Bill; Daubert considerations; the "two-injury" rule; and a host of other factors. A template for personal discussions by the team attorneys with individual plaintiffs was discussed so that some uniformity of communication would be effected, yet allow some flexibility to cover particularized or varied issues raised by individuals needing personal attention. Mr. Hoenig prepared the team regarding questions likely to be raised and the appropriate responses.
The Court's November 24 Order called for cooperation by plaintiffs' counsel and access to their records. We got it. Mr. Hoenig and his partner, Natalie Lefkowitz, conferred by phone with attorneys William H. Groner and Paul J. Napoli who offered their assistance. We decided that communications with plaintiffs' counsel would be more effective if one or two contact persons were designated. They, in turn, could invoke the assistance of others in their office. Mr. Groner offered his own assistance "24/7" and he truly made good on that offer as Mr. Hoenig and Ms. Lefkowitz often called upon him to discuss implementation of the Project. Mr. Groner designated attorney Christopher LoPalo, another of Plaintiffs' counsel, to be a contact person familiar with their records and plaintiffs' personal data. Mr. LoPalo, too, did not disappoint. His cooperation was prompt and responsive to our requests. Mr. Groner also met with Special Counsel's team in person, described the challenges to be expected in contacting the plaintiffs and answered questions. Mr. LoPalo provided last-known contact information regarding the Eligible Plaintiffs who had not yet opted in, as well as other data critical to our assignment. Information was supplemented by them as needed.

3. Developing A Plan of Action

Mr. Hoenig carefully reviewed the various letters plaintiffs' counsel had sent to their clients and considered potential problems plaintiffs may have perceived with them. Since the Eligible Plaintiffs not responding to their counsel had already received this style of detailed correspondence, we resolved that any mailing to such plaintiffs should consist only of a simple letter offering Special Counsel's help and emphasizing our independence. The mailing would be via priority mail, overnight delivery. It would include a stamped, self-addressed envelope and a simple form to be signed and returned immediately expressing a wish for such assistance or one of other specified choices. The mailing would also advise about our e-mail address and a toll-free number where the claimant could express his/her wish for help.
Depending on the number of responses and the available time frame, we resolved to have team attorneys available for as many personal meetings as feasible, including one-on-one or group sessions. We would make our offices in lower Manhattan (with sizeable conference rooms) and Long Island available and, if necessary, would rent a convenient hotel meeting room to accommodate an extremely large number of claimants seeking assistance, supplemented by break-out sessions with individual attorneys.
To accommodate those who work during the day, we would have attorneys available for meetings at night and during Saturdays and Sundays.
We would have a staff available to answer our toll-free number seven days a week until late at night. Thereafter, a recorded message would give callers instructions *653 on leaving a name and telephone number so that the caller could be contacted the next day.
We considered placing ads in the N.Y. Times, Daily News, N.Y. Post and Newsday, particularly to try to reach the nonlocatable plaintiffs. However, upon reflection, we rejected this step. First, costly advertising to millions of newspaper readers in order to try to reach some 80-90 persons who might have relocated outside the New York area did not seem efficient or cost-effective. Second, based on the rush of calls experienced when the news broke about Special Counsel and the December 17 deadline, from those who were not Eligible Plaintiffs and with continuing contacts by such persons, we concluded that advertising to several millions of newspaper readers would invite numerous calls or contacts by those who were not Eligible Plaintiffs but would like to discuss suing or participating in a settlement. A further surge of such callers would distract us from the limited assignment spelled out in the November 24 Order.
We had contact information regarding a number of First Responder or WTC Support Groups and considered placing ads or articles in their newsletters or the group's e-mail distribution channels but here, too, we concluded that persons other than nonlocated Eligible plaintiffs would rush to try to join litigation that had passed them by. Further, in order to pinpoint messages towards the non-located plaintiffs, we would possibly divulge information to the Responder universe that individual plaintiffs might like to keep private. Ultimately, we concluded that "finding" non-located plaintiffs could be achieved better by investigative efforts targeted at the individuals than by mass publications.

4. Implementation of the Project

There were 546 Eligible Plaintiffs who did not opt in to the SPA, according to the records of plaintiffs' counsel. We ascertained that 13 of these were deceased. We obtained from plaintiffs' counsel the names and addresses of 11 of the deceased's family members or representatives but there was no information regarding addresses for two of the deceased Eligible Plaintiffs.

A. Mailings

Accordingly, we sent out 544 letters, by priority mail overnight delivery, to the Eligible Plaintiffs group within our assignment. The letter was a simple expression of our independence and availability to help. The mailing also enclosed a response form containing simply-stated choices to be made regarding further action. A box adjacent each choice would be checked and the signed form was to be returned in the enclosed, postage-paid, self-addressed envelope. Plaintiffs also were advised regarding our toll-free telephone number and our e-mail address. A sample Special Counsel letter and response form is attached as "Attachment 1."
Only 10 undelivered, returned mailings reached us. We tried to follow up with each of the 10 Eligible Plaintiffs. Reasons for the returned mailings were:
 2 "moved, not forwardable"we tried to reach both by phone and via other telephone numbers, unsuccessfully;
 1 "no such number"there was no such house number; his phone number was not working;
 1 "unclaimed"we contacted him by phone and e-mailed him another form, which he did not return;
 1 "no such street"we contacted him by phone; he verbally expressed *654 a wish to opt in and we so advised his counsel;
 1 "undeliverable"we spoke to the plaintiff and he sent in his form to opt in;
 1 "not at this address"this returned mailing reached us on December 20, 2010, after our Project had ended and, therefore, no further attempt was made;
 1 "attempted not known"our lawyer tried to call him and left a message on his cell phone number;
 2 "vacant"we called the home and office of one plaintiff and both numbers were not in service; the other plaintiff's mailing reached us on December 20, 2010, after our Project had ended and, therefore, no further attempt was made.
Based on the foregoing, an overwhelming number of our mailings, 534, were delivered. Follow-ups on the 10 returned mailings resulted in a number of informative contacts nonetheless.

B. Dedicated Phone Line

We established a dedicated, toll-free phone line. Following the 544 mailings, the toll-free phone line was staffed during the day and up to 11:00 p.m. Thereafter, a recorded announcement invited callers to leave a message and provide contact information. All such calls were followed up the next day by Project team members. Notwithstanding the dedicated, toll-free number, both Mr. Hoenig individually and the office switchboard continued to receive numerous calls relating to the WTC litigation. All such callers were spoken to or contacted later by team members.

C. Return Forms

We received 91 written response forms, most in our postage-paid return envelopes. A few were faxed, e-mailed or sent by plaintiffs in their own envelopes. A few plaintiffs created inconsistencies by checking two boxes, for example, one for "opting out" and one for "discontinuance." These were followed up by phone to clarify the choice.

D. Telephone Contacts

We followed up the mailings with telephone calls to at least 258 plaintiffs. Many involved additional multiple telephone contacts by Project team members because messages were left and then followed up or because we had alternate telephone numbers to try when one number did not result in a conversation. In excess of 600 calls likely were initiated.
Of the 258 plaintiffs we telephoned, we engaged in substantive conversations with 128 plaintiffs. These contacts ranged from brief conversations identifying our independence, our availability to help, our suggestion to return the response forms, our invitation to meet in-person or further by phone, and our answering questions plaintiffs hadto full-blown, lengthy discussions explaining their rights and other input relevant for decision-making. Thus, substantive telephone conversations engaged nearly 25% of the Eligible Plaintiffs within our assignment. This effort, as a practical matter, was arguably even more effective since the initial number of 546 Eligible Plaintiffs included some 90 or so originally listed by counsel as not locatable.
Of the 258 plaintiffs we reached by phone, we also left messages (often multiple) for some 130 persons and these were not returned. Most plaintiffs, when offered in-person meetings, elected to proceed substantively by telephone conference instead. This led to many lengthy phone calls, frequently followed by additional phone conversations.

*655 E. In-Person Meetings

Although we offered all individuals we spoke with in-person meetings, only seven (7) such in-person meetings were held. Several were held at our Long Island office. In one of these the plaintiff did not show up. He then called our Project attorney, apologized and requested a meeting the next day. We accommodated his request. The rest of the in-person meetings were held in our N.Y. City office. One of these involved two plaintiffs at the same time. All in-person meetings were lengthy, substantive and deemed helpful by the individual plaintiffs all of whom expressed appreciation.
Even before our mailings were received, Mr. Hoenig received a request by two of the most vocal and knowledgeable "optout" plaintiffs for an in-person meeting. Both were Detectives who were the first plaintiffs in the litigation and both, over the years, had publicly expressed frustration and dissatisfaction with their attorneys' representation and the benefits to be awarded under the SPA. Mr. Hoenig decided to meet with them at their earliest convenience because their outspokenness and visibility within the group would possibly reflect or inform about experiences and frustrations of the larger group of plaintiffs who chose not to respond to their counsel or to opt in to the settlement. Mr. Hoenig was accompanied at this meeting by a few Project team members. The meeting was lengthy, informative and helpful. A number of questions were raised by each plaintiff that Mr. Hoenig said he would try to answer for them in future contacts. The plaintiffs expressed their appreciation.
Thereafter, Mr. Hoenig and Ms. Lefkowitz followed up with repeated, sometimes lengthy and detailed phone conversations with each plaintiff individually. Although each such plaintiff eventually decided not to opt into the settlement, we believe they were informed adequately for purposes of making a decision.

F. Non-Locatable Eligible Plaintiffs

A large number of Eligible Plaintiffs were categorized by their counsel as not located despite diligent efforts to do so. The numbers varied from 93 to less than 80 at different times. We examined the nature of counsel's efforts and found those efforts to be reasonable. Using these plaintiffs' last known addresses and phone numbers, we mailed them the letters and response forms and followed up with attempted phone calls. We also engaged an internet search service to test the results of attempting by such means to find about a half-dozen tier 4 plaintiffs from the "notlocated" group. One of our Project lawyers followed up with this service. The process was time-consuming as these advertised internet search services usually introduce the searcher to still more search engines requiring further exploration. Proving to be an unsuccessful test, we tried an alternative approach. One of our technically-oriented paralegals conducted internet searches for nine of the tier 4 "not-located" plaintiffs, as a test. Although he developed additional numbers and locations for some six of the individuals, diligent follow-up showed that they were not correct information for the individuals involved. This approach was halted.
We considered use of an experienced private investigator to do the searches but the hourly charges, the number of hours needed for each person and the time available for our assignment made this an expensive, inefficient project. Additionally, our Project team members had to focus on substantive discussions with numerous Eligible Plaintiffs we were able to reach.

*656 G. ResponsesWritten and Verbal

As indicated above, the response forms included in the mailing offered the plaintiffs choices of how to proceed. One category offered Special Counsel assistance. Others offered opt-in, opt-out, and discontinuance-of-action choices. (The forms also asked for insertion of their "best" contact information. This provided us with new numbers and alternative channels of communication).
In addition, these choices were discussed in our substantive telephone discussions and during in-person meetings. Thus, Eligible Plaintiffs' expressed wishes were recorded by Project team members whether they were expressed via written response forms or personal meetings or telephone conversations. A log of contacts/responses was kept for each Eligible Plaintiff. If no response was received that, too, was noted. A small number of inconsistencies occurred because some plaintiffs marked two boxes (e.g., opt out and discontinue) or because their telephonic expression of choice differed from the one on the written form. These discrepancies, among others, effected minor changes in the totals for each category.
The following are general results from the responses we received, both written and verbal:
 Only Requested Assistance via Form: 18
 Only Requested Assistance via Toil-Free phone call or E-Mail: 35
 Written Opt In-26
 Verbal Opt In-18
 Written Opt Out-20
 Verbal Opt Out-9
 Written Discontinue-18
 Verbal Discontinue-29 Inconsistent Responses
 2 said Discontinue but selected "opt out" on the response form.
 1 said "opt out" but selected "discontinue" on the form.
The inconsistent responses are in addition to the numbers listed above. Thus, depending on which category the response is allocated, that tally will increase.
Melding the written and verbal responses (and crediting the inconsistencies to the written version) yields the following totals:
 Only requests for Special Counsel assistance: 53
 Opt Ins: 44
 Opt Outs: 31
 Discontinuances: 47
[Note: In addition to the foregoing, we received three (3) written response forms on December 21, 2010 which is after the December 17 deadline. Two of those were "opt-outs." One was inconsistent by checking both "opt out" and "discontinue" boxes.]
Not counting the Requests for Special Counsel Assistance (but including the three (3) late written responses), some 125 Eligible Plaintiffs were assisted in expressing a choice.

Conclusion
In the time frame between the Court's assignment on November 24 and December 17, 2010, nearly one-quarter of nonresponsive Eligible Plaintiffs expressed a decision choosing how they wished to proceed with regard to the SPA. A significant number communicated with Special Counsel's Project team and availed themselves of assistance. As suggested in the Court's Order of November 24, a large number of Eligible Plaintiffs who did not opt in were frustrated and angry regarding the litigation process, the value of their anticipated settlement offer and for other reasons. Additionally, a significant number expressed *657 feeling overwhelmed by the complexity of their options and the difficulty of making a decision. Contacts with Special Counsel's lawyer team appeared to assuage some of these individuals' feelings and helped to restore to some further communication with their attorneys.
We received excellent and unrestricted cooperation and assistance from Mr. Groner and Mr. LoPalo, members of plaintiffs' law firm.
If additional information is needed we can refer to the logs and records for each plaintiff and provide it.

Re: Special Counsel Assistance WTC Litigation
Dear Eligible Plaintiff:
I write to you as independent Special Counsel appointed by Hon. U.S. District Court Judge Alvin K. Hellerstein of the Southern District of N.Y. who presides over the World Trade Center (WTC) litigation.
As you may know, a court-approved settlement has been concluded between Eligible Plaintiffs and certain principal defendants. This Is called the "Settlement Process Agreement" (SPA). An overwhelming number of Eligible Plaintiffs have opted-in to the SPA, more than 95% overall and even higher in certain injury categories.
Some Eligible Plaintiffs, however, have not yet opted in to accept the settlement offer. As to those, Judge Hellerstein has concluded that In a large litigation such as this certain factors may interfere with individual litigants' needs for a calm, deliberate evaluation of their best interests. He has decided that those individual Eligible Plaintiffs should have an opportunity to evaluate their rights and interests with the help of neutral Special Counsel, to arrive at an informed decision regarding their best interests. Accordingly, Judge Hellerstein has appointed me to act as Special Counsel and, together with attorneys and paralegals at this law firm, to help you arrive at an informed decision.
I stress three factors of importance: (1) we are Independent Special Counsel; (2) our sole purpose is to help those Eligible Plaintiffs who want assistance to make an informed decision; and (3) we are available to help for only a narrow, brief period, until mid-December, when our assignment expires.
Therefore, you have to let us know ASAP if you want our help. To make things easier for you in expressing your wishes to us immediately, we have done the following:
 We have provided a stamped, selfaddressed envelope which you should mail back to us Immediately containing the simple form that expresses your wishes;
 We provide a toll-free telephone number for you to call and express your wish for assistance: (877) 586-1992;
 We provide, for those using computers, an e-mail address where you can express your wish for assistance: WTC@Herzfeld-Rubin.com

*658  We provide a simple form that you should return immediately expressing your wishes. Just check the box applicable to your decision on whether to request Special Counsel's assistance or another choice, sign the form, print your name under your signature, insert the date and mail It back In the enclosed envelope. If a derivative claim is also involved (for example, a claim by a spouse of the injured party), both Eligible Plaintiffs should sign.
Again, we are Independent Special Counsel; we are here to help inform you so that you can make a decision in your best interests; and time is of the essence! Please act quickly. Sincerely,
/s/ Michael Hoenig
Michael Hoenig
