The notice and approval requirements of Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 

23(e)1

The Parties agree that this Court can proceed to dismiss this Action entirely 

with prejudice as to the Named Plaintiff and without prejudice as to the Putative 

Class. 

are inapplicable to the parties’ settlement and dismissal of this putative 

class action because this action has not been certified as a class. Regardless, there 

is no prejudice to the absent class members because (i) it is highly unlikely that 

there has been any reliance by putative class members on the filing of this class 

action to vindicate their rights; (ii) putative class members’ claims will not be 

prejudiced by lack of adequate time to file other actions due to the tolling of the 

absent class members’ claims; (iii) there have been no concessions, impairments 

or other actions taken by the Parties’ counsel that would prejudice the class’ 

claims; and (iv) the putative class members are being dismissed without 

prejudice.

Respectfully submitted this 1st day of May, 2015
