EXCLUDING YOURSELF FROM THE SETTLEMENT If you do not want benefits from the Settlement, and you want to keep the right to sue or continue to sue Defendant on your own about the legal issues in this case, then you must take steps to get out of the Settlement. This is called excluding yourself—or it is sometimes referred to as “opting out” of the Settlement Class.
Application of Settlement Agreement 10.1 This Settlement Agreement shall apply to, be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of, CAG and the Releasees and Downstream Releasees identified in Section 2 above.
Objections to the Settlement 7.1 Any Settlement Class Member who wishes to object to the Settlement Agreement must submit a timely and valid written notice of his or her objection (“Objection”) by the Objection Deadline (as defined herein). Such notice shall: (i) state the objecting Settlement Class Member's full name, current address, telephone number, and email address (if any); (ii) contain the objecting Settlement Class Member's original signature; (iii) set forth information identifying the objector as a Settlement Class Member, including proof that the objector is within the Settlement Class (e.g., copy of the Notice or copy of original notice of the Data Security Incident); (iv) set forth a statement of all grounds for the objection, including any legal support for the objection that the objector believes applicable; (v) identify all counsel representing the objector; (vi) state whether the objector and/or his or her counsel will appear at the Final Approval Hearing, and; (vii) contain the signature of the objector's duly authorized attorney or other duly authorized representative (if any), along with documentation setting forth such representation.

HOW DO I OBJECT TO THE SETTLEMENT Only Participating Class Members have the right to object to the Settlement. Before deciding whether to object, you may wish to see what Plaintiffs and Defendants are asking the Court to approve. At least sixteen (16) days before the [Date of Final Approval Hearing] Final Approval Hearing, Class Counsel and/or Plaintiffs will file in Court (1) a Motion for Final Approval that includes, among other things, the reasons why the proposed Settlement is fair, and (2) a request for fees, litigation expenses, and service awards (which may be filed as part of the Motion for Final Approval or as part of a separate Motion for Fees, Litigation Expenses, and Service Awards) stating (i) the amount Class Counsel is requesting for attorneys’ fees and litigation expenses; and (ii) the amount Plaintiffs are requesting as a Class Representative Service Award. Upon reasonable request, Class Counsel (whose contact information is in Section 9 of this Notice) will send you copies of these documents at no cost to you. You can also view them on the Administrator’s Website ([ (URL) ]). A Participating Class Member who disagrees with any aspect of the Agreement, the Motion for Final Approval and/or Motion for Fees, Litigation Expenses and Service Award may wish to object, for example, that the proposed Settlement is unfair, or that the amounts requested by Class Counsel or Plaintiffs are too high or too low. The deadline for sending written objections to the Administrator is [Response Deadline]. Be sure to tell the Administrator what you object to, why you object, and any facts that support your objection. Make sure you identify the Action (Xxxxxx X. Xxxxxxx, et al. v. Tastes & Tales, LLC, et al., Case No. 56-2022-00563241- CU-OE-VTA) and include your name, current address, telephone number, and approximate dates of employment for Defendants and sign the objection. Section 9 of this Notice has the Administrator’s contact information. Alternatively, a Participating Class Member can object (or personally retain a lawyer to object at your own cost) by attending the Final Approval Hearing. You (or your attorney) should be ready to tell the Court what you object to, why you object, and any facts that support your objection. See Section 8 of this Notice (immediately below) for specifics regarding the Final Approval Hearing.
