NOTICE OF PROPOSED CLASS ACTION SETTLEMENT

Defendants SXSW LLC and SXSW Holdings, Inc. hereby provide notice to the 

appropriate officials pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1715 of the Class Action Fairness Act (“CAFA”) of 

a proposed class action settlement in the above-captioned matter. 

The following documents may be downloaded at https://www.gdhm.com/documents/: 

1. Plaintiffs’ Class Action Complaint. 

2. Plaintiffs’ Motion for Preliminary Approval of Settlement (“Motion”). 

3. Order Granting Preliminary Approval of Class Action Settlement. 

The proposed Settlement Agreement is Exhibit A to the Declaration of Daniel O. Herrera, 

attached to the Motion. The Notice of Proposed Settlement of Class Action is Exhibit 4 to the 

proposed Settlement Agreement. 

Because of the size of the proposed class, providing the names of class members who 

reside in each state is not feasible. See 28 U.S.C. § 1715(b)(7)(A). In the alternative, 

Defendants hereby provide a reasonable estimate of the number of class members residing in 

each State and the estimated proportionate share of the claims of such members to the total. 28
