AGREEMENT

On April 12, 2010, the Court conducted a hearing on the parties’ Joint Motion for

Conditional Certification and Preliminary Approval of Class Action Settlement Agreement. 

(hereafter, “Joint Motion,” Docket Item No. 78.) At the hearing, the Court expressed its concern

with the parties’ proposal that CACH act as Class Administrator, due to its potentially conflicting

roles as a Defendant in the case and a party to the Settlement Agreement. Thus, the Court reserves

its decision on the parties’ Joint Motion until such time that the parties’ are able to adequately

address the Court’s stated concern.

Accordingly, the Court orders as follows:

(1) On or before April 16, 2010, the parties shall select an independent third-party Class

Administrator and shall allocate among themselves any costs associated with

administrating the Settlement Agreement. 

(2) On or before April 19, 2010, the parties shall submit to the Court an Amended

Proposed Order reflecting the new Class Administrator and allocation of costs, and
