I beg to disagree

Ok then beg.

The opt in or opt out is specific to the shares so specified

I give that 90% as things seem grayer than usual

He is not opting in or our as a person but as the OWNER of the account

You can be owner of 10 accounts and act differently on each as owner of that account - with the associated shares held there in

That is FALSE.

If you exclude yourself from one or more of the Class(es), which means to remove yourself from or “opt out” of the Class(es), you will not receive any monetary recovery or benefits obtained for the Class(es) from which you request exclusion, even if Plaintiffs obtain money or benefits for those Classes as a result of a trial or as part of a settlement between Defendants and Plaintiffs.

Yes. But the choice has an important and mutually exclusive effect. If you opt out you *cannot* recover from the class itself—whether it settles or wins. This rule is an *absolute bar* in America (note: shares held outside the US may be subject to different laws).

So for example, say you opt in to the Certified Class on accounts 1-9, and opt out on #10. Account # 10 can *not* recover on any class settlement; #10 can only sue individually.
