The information contained on this web page is only a summary of information presented in more detail in the Notice of Pendency of Proposed Settlement of Actions, Settlement Hearing, and Right to Appear (the “Notice”), which you can access by clicking here.

The proposed Settlement, if approved, will resolve both the Appraisal Claims and Class Claims asserted in the Actions, which will be dismissed with prejudice.
