The Kaiser Asbestos Trust was organized to process, liquidate, and pay all valid asbestos personal injury claims for which Kaiser has legal responsibility. The Trust was created in 2006 as a result of the confirmation of The Kaiser Aluminum & Chemical Corporation Chapter 11 Joint Plan of Reorganization (the “Plan”). The purpose of the Trust is to provide fair, equitable and substantially similar treatment for all PI Trust claims that may presently exist or may arise in the future in substantially the same manner.
