NOTICE TO THE CLASS 4.1 The Notice Plan shall consist of the following:

Class Notice The Settling Parties have presented to the Court proposed forms of Settlement Notice, which are appended hereto as Exhibit 3 and Exhibit 4, respectively. A. The Court finds that the proposed forms and the website referenced in the Settlement Notice fairly and adequately: i. Describe the terms and effect of the Settlement Agreement and of the Settlement; ii. Notify the Settlement Class concerning the proposed Plan of Allocation; iii. Notify the Settlement Class that Class Counsel will seek compensation from the Settlement Fund for the Class Representatives, Attorneys’ Fees and Costs; iv. Notify the Settlement Class that Administrative Expenses related to the implementation of the Settlement will be paid from the Settlement Fund; v. Give notice to the Settlement Class of the time and place of the Fairness Hearing; and vi. 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. B. 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. C. 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. D. 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. E. The Court directs Class Counsel, no later than sixty (60) days before the Fairness Hearing, to cause the Settlement Notice to be published on the Settlement Website.
Notice, Etc If any party (the "Indemnified Party") receives notice of any third-party claim or commencement of any third-party action or proceeding (an "Asserted Liability") with respect to which any other party (an "Indemnifying Party") is obligated to provide indemnification pursuant to Section 10.2(a) (Indemnification of Superholdings ) or Section 10.2(b) (Indemnification of the Members), the Indemnified Party shall promptly give all Indemnifying Parties notice thereof. The Indemnified Party's failure so to notify an Indemnifying Party shall not cause the Indemnified Party to lose its right to indemnification under this Article 10, except to the extent that such failure materially prejudices the Indemnifying Party's ability to defend against an Asserted Liability that such Indemnifying Party has the right to defend against hereunder (and except as otherwise set forth in this Article 10). Such notice shall describe the Asserted Liability in reasonable detail, and if practicable shall indicate the amount (which may be estimated) of the Losses that have been or may be asserted by the Indemnified Party. Each of the Indemnifying Parties may defend against an Asserted Liability on behalf of the Indemnified Party utilizing counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party, unless (i) the Indemnified Party reasonably objects to the assumption of such defense on the grounds that counsel for such Indemnifying Party cannot represent both the Indemnified Party and such Indemnifying Party because such representation would be reasonably likely to result in a conflict of interest or because there may be defenses available to the Indemnified Party that are not available to such Indemnifying Party, (ii) such Indemnifying Party is not capable (by reason of insufficient financial capacity, bankruptcy, receivership, liquidation, managerial deadlock, managerial neglect or similar events) of maintaining a reasonable defense of such action or proceeding, or (iii) the action or proceeding seeks injunctive or other equitable relief against the Indemnified Party.
Notification to Unsuccessful Job Applicants The parties agree that any unsuccessful candidate for an ONA job posting will be notified, in writing, within one (1) week of the decision being made and prior to the posting of the name of the successful candidate. The parties further agree that the above notification will be copied to the ONA Bargaining Unit President.
Certification of the Settlement Class For purposes of this Settlement only, the Parties stipulate to the certification of the Settlement Class, which is contingent upon the Court entering the Final Approval Order and Judgment of this Settlement and the occurrence of the Effective Date.
Indemnification for Certain Claims The Party providing services hereunder, its affiliates and its parent company, shall be indemnified, defended and held harmless by the Party receiving services hereunder against any claim, loss or damage arising from the receiving company’s use of the services provided under this Agreement pertaining to (1) claims for libel, slander or invasion of privacy arising from the content of the receiving company’s own communications, or (2) any claim, loss or damage claimed by the End User of the Party receiving services arising from such company’s use or reliance on the providing company’s services, actions, duties, or obligations arising out of this Agreement.
