The Court finds that the proposed forms and the website referenced in the Settlement Notice fairly and adequately:\ni. Describe the terms and effect of the Settlement Agreement and of the Settlement;\nii. Notify the Settlement Class concerning the proposed Plan of Allocation;\niii. Notify the Settlement Class that Class Counsel will seek compensation from the Settlement Fund for the Class Representatives, Attorneys\u2019 Fees and Costs;\niv. Notify the Settlement Class that Administrative Expenses related to the implementation of the Settlement will be paid from the Settlement Fund;\nv. Give notice to the Settlement Class of the time and place of the Fairness Hearing; and\nvi. Describe how the recipients of the Class Notice may object to any of the relief requested and the rights of the Settling Parties to discovery concerning such objections.\nB. The Settling Parties have proposed the following manner of communicating the notice to Class Members: the Settlement Administrator shall, by no later than sixty (60) days before the Fairness Hearing, cause the Settlement Notices, with such non- substantive modifications thereto as may be agreed upon by the Settling Parties, to be sent by electronic mail to all Class Members for whom the Settlement Administrator is provided a current email address and mailed, by first-class mail, postage prepaid, to the last known address of each member of the Settlement Class for whom there is no current email address that can be identified through commercially reasonable means. The Court finds that such proposed manner is the best notice practicable under the circumstances and directs that the Settlement Administrator provide notice to the Settlement Class in the manner described. Defendants shall cooperate with the Settlement Administrator by providing or facilitating the provision of, in electronic format, the names, addresses, email addresses (to the extent available), and social security numbers or other unique identifiers of members of the Settlement Class. The names, addresses, email addresses (to the extent available), and social security numbers or other unique identifiers obtained pursuant to this Order shall be used solely for the purpose of providing notice of this settlement and as required for purposes of tax withholding and reporting, and for no other purpose.\nC. For any Settlement Notice returned as undeliverable, the Settlement Administrator shall utilize the provided social security number or other unique identifier to attempt to determine the current address of the person and shall mail notice to that address.\nD. At or before the Fairness Hearing, Class Counsel or the Settlement Administrator shall file with the Court a proof of timely compliance with the foregoing requirements.\nE.

Within twenty (20) days of receipt of the Updated Address List and after entry of an Order of Preliminary Approval by the Court, the Claims Administrator shall mail a Court-approved form of Class Notice by first class mail postage prepaid to each member of the Class on the Class List (defined below) as updated through the National Change of Address database. If a Class Notice is returned as undeliverable, and the USPS provides a forwarding address, the Claims Administrator shall resend the Class Notice to the potential Class Member using the corrected address provided by the USPS. If a Class Notice is returned by the USPS without a forwarding address, the Claims Administrator shall utilize normal skip tracing techniques, including but not necessarily limited to searching the database of one or more of the nationally recognized credit reporting agencies (such as Equifax, TransUnion, or Experian) to locate the potential Class member\u2019s current address. If successful, a Class Notice shall be resent to the potential Class Member at the current address.\n30. The Class Notice shall incorporate a final fairness hearing date as established by the Court which is not less than 60 days from the date the Claims Administrator anticipates completion of the initial mailing of the Class Notice (without regard to returned envelopes). Because notice of certification of the Class was provided, in accordance with Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 23(c)(2), and the deadline for opt-outs expired June 1, 2015, the parties will seek Court approval for a Class Notice that shall not include any option to opt-out of this Settlement for any member of the Class.\n31.
