members’ contact information will not be disclosed to Plaintiff Nelson’s counsel;

members’ names, last known phone numbers, last known addresses, job titles,

deadline for putative class members to submit their objections;

7. Nelson agrees to keep the contact information confidential and agrees 

that the contact information will be used solely in the prosecution of this lawsuit; and
