ALL PARTIES RECOMMEND APPROVAL OF THE SETTLEMENT. 3.01 Defendants’ Position on the Conditional Certification of Settlement Class. Defendants dispute that a class would be manageable and further deny that a litigation class properly could be certified on the claims asserted in this Litigation. However, solely for purposes of avoiding the expense and inconvenience of further litigation, Defendants do not oppose the certification of the Settlement Class for the purposes of only this Settlement. Preliminary certification of the Settlement Class will not be deemed a concession that certification of a litigation class is appropriate, nor would Defendants be precluded from challenging class certification in further proceedings in this Litigation or in any other action if the Settlement Agreement is not finalized or finally approved. If the Settlement Agreement is not finally approved by the Court for any reason whatsoever, the certification of the Settlement Class will be void, and no doctrine of waiver, estoppel, or preclusion will be asserted in any litigated certification proceedings in this Litigation or any other judicial proceeding. No agreements made by or entered into by Defendants in connection with the Settlement Agreement may be used by Plaintiffs, any Settlement Class Member, or any other person to establish any of the elements of class certification in any litigated certification proceedings, whether in this Litigation or any other judicial proceeding.
