UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 

NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA 

SAN JOSE DIVISION 

IN RE YAHOO! INC. SECURITIES 

LITIGATION 

THIS DOCUMENT RELATES TO: 

ALL ACTIONS 

Case No. 5:17-CV-00373-LHK 

Hon. Lucy H. Koh 

NOTICE OF PROPOSED CLASS-ACTION SETTLEMENT 

If you purchased Yahoo! Inc. securities between April 30, 2013 

 and December 14, 2016, you could get a payment from a class action settlement.

A federal court authorized this notice. This is not a solicitation from a lawyer. 

This is not a notice that you have been sued.

• The proposed Settlement, if approved by the Court, will provide $80 million (approximately 

$0.12 per share) to pay claims from investors who bought Yahoo! Inc. securities between 

April 30, 2013 and December 14, 2016, both dates inclusive. 

• The Settlement resolves a lawsuit concerning whether Yahoo! Inc. (“Yahoo” or the 

“Company”) and certain of its officers made false and misleading statements or materially 

misleading omissions concerning the adequacy of the Company’s user data security and the 

existence of data security breaches. Yahoo and “Individual Defendants” Marissa Mayer, 

Ronald Bell, and Alexander Stamos (together with Yahoo, the “Defendants”) deny all 

allegations of misconduct. The two sides disagree on whether the investors could have won 

at trial, and if so, how much money they could have won. 

• Court-appointed attorneys for investors will ask the Court for up to $20 million in attorneys’ 

fees (25% of the Settlement) and up to $750,000 in reimbursement for expenses for their 

work litigating the case and negotiating the Settlement. They will also ask for an award to 

the three class representatives, not to exceed $275,000 in total, for their reasonable costs and 

expenses. If approved by the Court, these amounts (totaling approximately $0.03 per share) 

will be paid from the Settlement Fund. 

• The estimated average recovery, after deducting attorneys’ fees and expenses, administrative 

costs, and Class Representative awards of reasonable costs and expenses (if approved by the 

Court), is $0.09 per share. 

• The Court has not yet approved the Settlement. Payments will be made only if the Court 

approves the Settlement and after any appeals are resolved. Please be patient.

BASIC INFORMATION 

1. Why Did I Receive This Notice Package?

You or someone in your family may have purchased or otherwise acquired Yahoo 

securities on the open market between April 30, 2013 and December 14, 2016, both dates 

inclusive. 

This Notice was sent because you have a right to know about a proposed settlement of a 

class action lawsuit, and about all of your options before the Court decides whether to approve 

the Settlement. If the Court approves the Settlement, after any objections or appeals are resolved, 

the Settlement Administrator appointed by the Court will make the payments to those persons 

who timely submit claims in the manner described below. 

This package explains the lawsuit, the Settlement, your legal rights, what benefits are 

available, who is eligible for them, and how to get them. 

The Court in charge of the case is the United States District Court for the Northern 

District of California, U.S. District Judge Lucy H. Koh presiding, and the case is known as In re 

Yahoo! Inc. Securities Litigation, Lead Case No. 17-CV-00373-LHK (N.D. Cal.). Ben Maher, 

Sutton View Partners LP, and Nafiz Talukder are called the Plaintiffs or the class representatives, 

and the Defendants are Yahoo and Individual Defendants Marissa Mayer, Ronald Bell, and 

Alexander Stamos. The Plaintiffs and the Defendants are referred to together as the “Settling 

Parties.” 

2. What Is This Lawsuit About?

This Action involves violations of the federal securities laws against the Defendants. 

Specifically, Plaintiffs assert claims under Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange 

Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”). 

As alleged in the Second Amended Complaint (the “Complaint”), Yahoo formerly 

provided internet services including, among other things, a web portal, search engine, Yahoo! 

Mail, Yahoo! News, Yahoo! Finance, sports, advertising, and a microblogging and social 

networking website, Tumblr. 

Plaintiffs allege that, during the Settlement Class Period, the Defendants unlawfully 

inflated Yahoo’s stock price by making materially false or misleading statements and/or failing 

to disclose material facts concerning Yahoo’s user data security and data breaches. Plaintiffs 

further contend that the price of Yahoo securities was artificially inflated as a result of 

Defendants’ actions and that investors suffered injury as a result of the alleged inflation. 

Defendants deny all of these allegations, deny that they made any false or misleading 

statements, and deny that they engaged in any wrongdoing. 

3. Why Is This a Class Action?

Classes are generally used in lawsuits that affect a large number of individuals. The class 

action consolidates into a single action all of the claims of individuals allegedly harmed by the 

same conduct or course of conduct in the same period of time, thus removing the need for 

members of the class to file their own individual lawsuits for the harm alleged. Once the class is 

Case 5:17-cv-00373-LHK Document 86 Filed 05/01/18 Page 4 of 20
{00278453;1 } 5 

sf-3872399 

certified, one court is empowered to resolve all of the issues for all class members, except for 

those class members who exclude themselves from the class. 

4. Why Is There a Settlement?

The Court did not decide in favor of the Plaintiffs or Defendants. Instead, both sides 

agreed to a Settlement under the terms set forth in the Stipulation and Agreement of Settlement 

(the “Stipulation”). This permits the parties to avoid the cost, delay, and uncertainty of a trial, 

and permits eligible Settlement Class Members who submit valid claims to receive some 

compensation sooner, rather than engaging in years of further litigation—including motions for 

summary judgment, trial, and appeals—with the possibility of no recovery at all. 

Both the Plaintiffs and the Defendants have taken into account the uncertainty and risks 

inherent in any litigation, especially in complex cases such as the Action. The Settling Parties 

disagree on both liability and damages, and do not agree on the average amount of damages per 

share, if any, that would be recoverable if Plaintiffs were to prevail at trial on each claim. Among 

their many other disagreements are: (1) whether Defendants violated the securities laws or 

otherwise engaged in wrongdoing; (2) whether the misrepresentations and omissions alleged by 

the Plaintiffs were material, false, misleading, or otherwise actionable; (3) whether and to what 

extent the alleged misrepresentations and omissions influenced Yahoo’s stock price and/or 

caused Settlement Class Members’ alleged damages; and (4) the method for determining the 

amount of damages, if any, suffered by the Settlement Class Members. 

The Plaintiffs and their attorneys believe the Settlement is best for all Settlement Class 

Members. However, by settling the Action at this point, Plaintiffs are not admitting that the 

Complaint or the Action lacked merit or that the Settlement Class’s ultimate recovery would not 

have been greater than the Settlement Consideration. Neither the Stipulation, nor any of its terms 

or provisions, nor any of the negotiations or proceedings connected with it, shall be construed as 

an admission or concession by the Plaintiffs or the Settlement Class Members that any of their 

claims are without merit, or that any defenses asserted by the Defendants have any merit, or that 

damages recoverable in the Action would not have exceeded the Settlement Fund. 

Defendants deny all charges of wrongdoing or liability arising out of any of the conduct, 

statements, acts or omissions alleged, or that could have been alleged, by Plaintiffs. Nonetheless, 

Defendants have concluded that further defense of the Action would be protracted and 

expensive, and that it is desirable that the Action be fully and finally settled upon the terms and 

conditions set forth in the Stipulation in order to limit further expense and avoid the burden of 

protracted litigation. Defendants entered into the Stipulation without in any way admitting to or 

acknowledging any fault, liability, or wrongdoing of any kind. There has been no adverse 

determination by any court against Defendants or anyone else on the merits of the claims 

asserted in the Complaint. Neither the Stipulation, nor any of its terms or provisions, nor any of 

the negotiations or proceedings connected with it, shall be construed as an admission or 

concession by Defendants of the merit or truth of any of the allegations or wrongdoing of any 

kind on their part nor shall they be offered as evidence in the Action or in any pending or future 

civil, criminal, or administrative action against Defendants, except as expressly set forth in the 

Stipulation.

WHO IS IN THE SETTLEMENT 

 To see if you will receive money from this Settlement, you first have to determine if you 

are a possible Settlement Class Member. 

5. How Do I Know if I Am Part of the Settlement?

To be a member of the Settlement Class, you must have purchased or otherwise acquired 

Yahoo securities on the open market between April 30, 2013 and December 14, 2016, both dates 

inclusive (the “Settlement Class Period”). 

6. Are there exceptions to being included?

Yes. You are not a member of the Settlement Class if you belong to any of the following 

groups: (i) Defendants and the Individual Defendants’ family members, heirs, successors, or 

assigns; (ii) directors and officers of Altaba, Inc., and their families; (iii) any entity in which 

Defendants have a controlling interest; and (v) any Person who submits a request for exclusion 

from the Settlement Class that is accepted by the Court. 

7. I am Still Not Sure if I Am Included.

If you are still not sure whether you are included, you can ask for free help. You can 

contact the Settlement Administrator at info@yahoosecuritieslitigation.com or (833) 380-5570, 

for more information. Or you can fill out and return the claim form described in question 10, to 

see if you qualify. 

THE SETTLEMENT BENEFITS—WHAT YOU GET 

8. What Does the Settlement Provide?

The Settlement, if approved by the Court, will result in a gross fund of $80 million U.S. 

dollars. Subject to the Court’s approval, a portion of this fund will be used to pay Plaintiffs’ 

attorneys’ fees and reasonable litigation expenses, the costs of notice and claims administration 

(including the costs of printing and mailing this Notice), and any award of reasonable costs and 

expenses granted to the class representatives. After these deductions from the Settlement Fund 

have been made, the amount remaining (the “Net Settlement Fund”) will be distributed to 

Settlement Class Members who submit valid claims, in accordance with the Plan of Allocation 

set forth below. 

9. How Much Will My Payment Be?

Your share of the Net Settlement Fund will depend on (i) the number of valid claim 

forms submitted by Settlement Class Members, (ii) the number of Yahoo securities you 

purchased and sold between April 30, 2013 and December 14, 2016, and the timing of those 

purchases and sales; (iii) the amount of administrative costs, including the costs of notice; and 

(iv) the amount awarded by the Court to the class representatives for their reasonable costs and 

expenses, if any, and to Lead Counsel for attorneys’ fees, costs, and expenses.

{00278453;1 } 7 

sf-3872399 

You can calculate your Recognized Claim in accordance with the Plan of Allocation set 

forth below. After all Settlement Class Members have sent in their Proof of Claim and Release 

forms, the payment you receive will reflect your Recognized Claim in relation to the sum total of 

Recognized Claims of all persons submitting valid Proof of Claim forms. Your Recognized 

Claim is not the amount of the payment that you can expect, but is used to determine how the 

Net Settlement Fund is to be allocated among all persons submitting claims. 

HOW TO GET A PAYMENT—SUBMITTING A CLAIM FORM 

10. How Can I Get a Payment?

To qualify for a payment, you must be an eligible Settlement Class Member, send in a 

valid Proof of Claim and Release form by [5 Days Before Settlement Hearing], 

2018, and properly document your claim as requested in the form. The Settlement Administrator 

will process your claim and determine whether you are an Authorized Claimant. 

A Proof of Claim and Release form is enclosed with this Notice and may also be 

downloaded at www.yahoosecuritieslitigation.com. Read the instructions carefully, fill out the 

form, sign it in the location indicated, include all of the documentation requested in the form, and 

mail or submit it online so that it is postmarked or received no later than ______, 2018. The 

claim form may be submitted online at www.yahoosecuritieslitigation.com or mailed to: 

In re Yahoo! Inc. Securities Litigation 

c/o JND Legal Administration 

P.O. Box 91347 

Seattle, WA 98111 

11. When Will I Receive My Payment?

The Court will hold a hearing on ______, 2018 to decide whether to approve the 

Settlement. If the Court approves the Settlement, there might be an appeal afterwards. It is 

always uncertain whether there will be an appeal and when any appeal will be resolved, and 

resolving an appeal can take time, perhaps more than a year. It also takes at least several months 

for the Settlement Administrator to process all of the Proof of Claim and Release forms and 

determine the ultimate distribution amounts. Please be patient. 

12. What Am I Giving Up to Receive a Payment or remain a Settlement Class 

Member?

Unless you validly exclude yourself from the Settlement Class by the 

2018 [21 Days Prior to Settlement Hearing] deadline, you are a Settlement Class Member and 

will be giving up certain rights that you currently have if the Court approves the Settlement. That 

means that if the Settlement is approved, you and all Settlement Class Members will release 

(agreeing never to sue or be part of any other proceeding) all Settlement Class Claims against the 

Defendants and all Released Defendant Persons. 

“Settlement Class Claims” means all claims, rights, liabilities, and causes of action of 

every nature and description, including Unknown Claims, whether contingent or absolute, 

Case 5:17-cv-00373-LHK Document 86 Filed 05/01/18 Page 7 of 20

sf-3872399 

mature or unmature, discoverable or undiscoverable, liquidated or unliquidated, accrued or 

unaccrued, including those that are concealed or hidden, regardless of legal or equitable theory, 

that Plaintiffs or any other member(s) of the Settlement Class asserted or could have asserted in 

any forum (i) that arise out of, are based upon, or are related in any way directly or indirectly, in 

whole or in part, to the allegations, transactions, facts, matters, occurrences, representations, or 

omissions referred to in the Amended Complaint and that relate to the purchase, sale, acquisition, 

or retention of Yahoo securities during the Settlement Class Period; or (ii) that are related to the 

administration of the Settlement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, “Settlement Class Claims” does 

not include any claims asserted on behalf of the Company in the Derivative Actions. 

“Released Defendant Persons” means, collectively, each and all of (i) the Defendants, the 

members of each Individual Defendant’s immediate family, any entity in which any Defendant 

or member of any Individual Defendant’s immediate family has, or had during the Class Period, 

a controlling interest (directly or indirectly), any estate or trust of which any Individual 

Defendant is a settlor or which is for the benefit of any Individual Defendant and/or members of 

his or her family; and (ii) for each and every Person listed in part (i), their respective past, 

present, and future heirs, executors, administrators, predecessors, successors, assigns, employees, 

agents, affiliates, analysts, assignees, attorneys, auditors, co-insurers, commercial bank lenders, 

consultants, controlling shareholders, directors, divisions, domestic partners, financial advisors, 

general or limited partners, general or limited partnerships, insurers, investment advisors, 

investment bankers, investment banks, joint ventures and joint venturers, managers, managing 

directors, marital communities, members, officers, parents, personal or legal representatives, 

principals, reinsurers, selling shareholders, shareholders, spouses, subsidiaries (foreign or 

domestic), trustees, underwriters, and other retained professionals, in their respective capacities 

as such. 

Unless you validly exclude yourself from the Settlement Class by the stated deadline, all 

of the Court’s orders will apply to you and legally bind you. If you sign the claim form, you must 

accept your share in the Net Settlement Fund as sole compensation for any losses you have 

suffered in the acquisition and sale of Yahoo securities during the Settlement Class Period. 

EXCLUDING YOURSELF FROM THE SETTLEMENT 

 If you do not want a payment from the Settlement, but you want to keep the right to sue 

or continue to sue the Defendants on your own for the Settlement Class Claims, then you must 

take steps to get out of the Settlement Class. This is called excluding yourself or “opting out” of 

the Settlement Class. 

13. How Do I Get Out of the Settlement Class?

To exclude yourself from the Settlement Class, you must send a letter by mail stating that 

you “request exclusion from the Settlement Class in the Yahoo Securities Litigation.” To be 

valid, the letter must state (A) your name, address, telephone number, signature, and e-mail 

address (if any); (B) the date, number of Yahoo securities, and dollar amount of all purchases, 

acquisitions, sales, or dispositions of Yahoo securities between April 30, 2013 and December 14, 

2016, both dates inclusive; and (C) the number of Yahoo securities held by you as of December

{00278453;1 } 9 

sf-3872399 

14, 2016. Any request for exclusion must be signed and submitted by you, as the beneficial 

owner, under penalty of perjury. You must submit your exclusion request so that it is 

postmarked no later than , 2018 [21 Days Prior to Settlement Hearing] at: 

In re Yahoo! Inc. Securities Litigation 

c/o JND Legal Administration 

P.O. Box 91347 

Seattle, WA 98111 

14. If I Do Not Exclude Myself, Can I Sue the Released Persons for the Same Thing 

Later?

No. Unless you exclude yourself from the Settlement Class, you give up any rights to sue 

the Defendants and the other Released Persons for the claims being released in this Settlement. If 

you have a pending lawsuit against the Defendants, speak to your lawyer in that case 

immediately. Remember, the exclusion deadline is ______, 2018. 

15. If I Exclude Myself, Can I Receive Money from the Net Settlement Fund?

No. If you properly exclude yourself, you will not receive a payment from the Net 

Settlement Fund, you cannot object to the Settlement, and you will not be legally bound by any 

judgment in this case. 

THE LAWYERS REPRESENTING YOU 

16. Do I Have a Lawyer in This Case?

The Court has appointed the law firms Pomerantz LLP and Glancy Prongay & Murray LLP 

to represent you and other Settlement Class Members. These lawyers are called Lead Counsel or 

class counsel. You will not be charged for the services of these lawyers. If you want to be 

represented by your own lawyer, you may hire one at your own expense. 

17. How Will the Lawyers Be Paid?

Lead Counsel has not been paid any attorneys’ fees to date. Lead Counsel has expended 

considerable time litigating this Action on a contingent-fee basis and has paid for all of the 

expenses of the litigation themselves. Lead Counsel has done so with the expectation that if they 

are successful in recovering money for the Settlement Class, they will receive attorneys’ fees and 

be reimbursed for their litigation expenses from the Settlement Fund, as is customary in this type 

of litigation. Lead Counsel will not receive attorneys’ fees or be reimbursed for their litigation 

expenses except from the Settlement Fund. 

Therefore, Lead Counsel will file a motion asking the Court for an award of up to $20 

million in attorneys’ fees, up to $750,000 for reimbursement of reasonable litigation expenses, 

and may also seek an award of up to $275,000 in total for the three class representatives for their 

reasonable costs and expenses. That motion will argue that the requested fees and expenses are 

well within the range awarded to class counsel under similar circumstances in other cases of this 

type. The Court may award less than these amounts. Any amounts awarded by the Court will

{00278453;1 } 10 

sf-3872399 

come out of the Settlement Fund. Settlement Class Members are not personally liable for any 

such fees or expenses. 

OBJECTING TO THE SETTLEMENT 

 You can tell the Court that you do not agree with the Settlement or some part of it. 

18. How Do I Tell the Court That I Do Not Like the Settlement?

If you are a Settlement Class Member and do not agree with the proposed Settlement, any 

part of the Settlement, the proposed Plan of Allocation, and/or the request for attorneys’ fees and 

expenses or an award of reasonable costs and expenses for the Class Representatives, you can 

ask the Court to deny approval by filing an objection. You can’t ask the Court to order a larger 

settlement; the Court can only approve or deny the settlement. If the Court denies approval, no 

settlement payment will be sent out and the lawsuit will continue. 

To object, you must send a letter saying you object to the Settlement in the Yahoo 

Securities Litigation, Case No. 17-CV-00373-LHK. Be sure to include: (A) your name, address, 

telephone number, signature, and e-mail address (if any); (B) the date, number of Yahoo 

securities, and dollar amount of all purchases, acquisitions, sales, or dispositions of Yahoo 

securities between April 30, 2013 and December 14, 2016, both dates inclusive; (C) the number 

of Yahoo securities held by you as of December 14, 2016; and (D) a description of the specific 

part of the Stipulation or Settlement to which you object and all grounds for your objection, 

including any evidence you wish to bring to the Court’s attention and any legal support known to 

you or your counsel. 

If you object to the Settlement or the requested attorneys’ fees or award of reasonable 

costs and expenses for the class representatives, you subject yourself to the jurisdiction of the 

Court in this matter and Plaintiffs may seek to take your deposition before the Settlement 

Hearing. If the Court allows the deposition and you refuse to have your deposition taken, your 

objection may be deemed invalid. 

The motions in support of the Settlement and the request for attorneys’ fees will be filed 

no later than , 2018[35 DAYS PRIOR TO SETTLEMENT HEARING], and 

they will be available from Lead Counsel, the Settlement Administrator, or the Court. Any 

objection must be mailed or delivered such that it is received by each of the following no later 

than , [35 DAYS PRIOR TO SETTLEMENT HEARING], 2018:

THE COURT’S SETTLEMENT HEARING 

The Court will hold a hearing to decide whether to approve the Settlement. You may 

attend and you may ask to speak, but you do not have to. 

19. When and Where Will the Court Decide Whether to Approve the Settlement?

The Court will hold a Settlement Hearing at __ _.m. on ______, 2018 at the United States 

District Court for the Northern District of California in Courtroom 8, 4th Floor, San Jose 

Courthouse, 280 South 1st Street, San Jose, CA 95113. 

At this hearing, the Court will consider whether the proposed Settlement and Plan of 

Allocation are fair, reasonable, and adequate and should be approved. If there are objections, the 

Court will consider them, and the Court will listen to people who have asked to speak at the 

hearing. The Court may also decide how much should be awarded to Lead Counsel for attorneys’ 

fees and expenses and to class representatives for their reasonable costs and expenses. The Court 

may decide these issues at the hearing or take them under consideration for a later decision. 

We do not know how long these decisions will take. You should be aware that the Court 

may change the date and time of the Settlement Hearing without another notice being sent to 

Settlement Class Members. If you want to attend the hearing, you may wish to visit the Court’s 

website at http://www.cand.uscourts.gov/lhk or check with Class Counsel beforehand to be sure 

that the date and time has not changed. 

20. Do I Have to Come to the Hearing? 

No. Lead Counsel will answer questions the Court may have. But you are welcome to 

come at your own expense. If you send an objection, you do not have to come to Court to talk 

about it, though you are welcome to do so. However if you object and wish to appear at the 

hearing, you must provide notification that you wish to appear at the hearing in your written 

objection. You may also pay your own lawyer to attend, but it is not necessary. 

21. May I Speak at the Hearing?

THE PLAN OF ALLOCATION 

The Plan of Allocation is a matter separate and apart from the proposed Settlement, and 

any decision by the Court concerning the Plan of Allocation shall not affect the validity or 

finality of the proposed Settlement. The Court may approve the Plan of Allocation with or 

without modifications agreed to among the Parties, or may approve another plan of allocation, 

without further notice to Settlement Class Members. 

The objective of the Plan of Allocation is to equitably distribute the Net Settlement Fund 

among Authorized Claimants based on their respective alleged economic losses as a result of the 

alleged fraud, as opposed to losses caused by market- or industry-wide factors, or Companyspecific factors unrelated to the alleged fraud. The Settlement Administrator shall determine each 

Authorized Claimant’s share of the Net Settlement Fund based upon the recognized loss formulas 

(the “Recognized Loss”) described below. A Recognized Loss will be calculated for each share 

of Yahoo common stock and each exchange-traded call option on Yahoo common stock (“Call 

Option”) purchased or otherwise acquired during the Settlement Class Period, and for each 

exchange-traded put option on Yahoo common stock sold (written) during the Settlement Class 

Period (“Put Options”).1, 2, 3

 The calculation of Recognized Loss will depend upon several factors, 

including when the Yahoo securities were purchased or otherwise acquired during the Settlement 

Class Period, and in what amounts, and whether those securities were sold, and if sold, when they 

were sold, and for what amounts. The Recognized Loss is not intended to estimate the amount a 

Settlement Class Member might have been able to recover after a trial, nor to estimate the amount 

that will be paid to Authorized Claimants pursuant to the Settlement. The Recognized Loss is the 

basis upon which the Net Settlement Fund will be proportionately allocated to the Authorized 

Claimants. The Settlement Administrator will use its best efforts to administer and distribute the 

Net Settlement Fund to the extent that it is equitably and economically feasible. 

The Plan of Allocation was created with the assistance of a consulting damages expert, 

and reflects the assumption that the prices of Yahoo common stock were artificially inflated 

throughout the Settlement Class Period. The estimated alleged artificial inflation in the prices of 

Yahoo common stock during the Settlement Class Period is reflected in Table 1 below. The 

computation of the estimated alleged artificial inflation in the prices of Yahoo common stock 

 

1

 Herein, Yahoo common stock, Call Options, and Put Options are referred to collectively as 

“Yahoo securities.” 

2

 During the Settlement Class Period, Yahoo common stock was listed on the Nasdaq exchange 

under the ticker symbol “YHOO.” After the Settlement Class Period, on June 13, 2017, Yahoo 

completed the sale of its operating unit to Verizon Communications, Inc. Yahoo changed its name 

to “Altaba Inc.” and its shares began trading under the new ticker symbol “AABA” as of the 

opening of trading June 19, 2017. (Business Wire, “Altaba Completes Name Change; Registers 

as Investment Company; Commences Trading Under New Ticker Symbol ‘AABA’,” June 19, 

2017, 8:00 AM.) 

3

 Exchange-traded options are traded in units called “contracts.” Each call (put) option contract 

entitles the holder of the call (put) option contract to purchase (sell) 100 shares of the underlying 

stock upon exercise, in this case Yahoo common stock.

during the Settlement Class Period is based on certain misrepresentations alleged by Plaintiffs 

and the price change in the stock, net of market- and industry-wide factors, in reaction to the 

public announcements that allegedly corrected the misrepresentations alleged by Plaintiffs. 

Federal securities laws allow investors to recover for losses caused by disclosures which 

corrected the defendants’ previous misleading statements or omissions. Thus, in order to have 

been damaged by the alleged violations of the federal securities laws, Yahoo common stock 

purchased or otherwise acquired during the Settlement Class Period must have been held during 

a period of time in which its price declined due to the disclosure of information which corrected 

an allegedly misleading statement or omission. Plaintiffs and Lead Counsel have determined that 

such price declines occurred on the following dates: May 19, 2015; September 14, 2015; January 

20, 2016; September 22, 2016; September 23, 2016; October 7, 2016; October 13, 2016; October 

18, 2016; October 20, 2016; and December 15, 2016 (the “Corrective Disclosure Dates”). 

Accordingly, if a share of Yahoo common stock was sold before May 19, 2015 (the earliest 

Corrective Disclosure Date), the Recognized Loss for that share is $0.00, and any loss suffered is 

not compensable under the federal securities laws. Likewise, if a share of Yahoo common stock 

was both purchased and subsequently sold between two consecutive Corrective Disclosure Dates, 

the Recognized Loss for that share is $0.00. With respect to Call Options purchased during the 

Settlement Class Period and Put Options sold during the Settlement Class Period, such options 

must have been open and outstanding at the opening of trading in the U.S. financial markets on at 

least one of the Corrective Disclosure Dates in order to have a Recognized Loss amount greater 

than $0.00.

The “90-day look back” provision of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 

(“PSLRA”) is incorporated into the calculation of the Recognized Loss for Yahoo common stock. 

The limitations on the calculation of the Recognized Loss imposed by the PSLRA are applied such 

that losses on Yahoo common stock purchased during the Settlement Class Period and held as of 

the close of the 90-day period subsequent to the Settlement Class Period (the “90-Day Lookback 

Period”) cannot exceed the difference between the purchase price paid for such stock and the 

average price of Yahoo common stock during the 90-Day Lookback Period. The Recognized Loss 

on Yahoo common stock purchased during the Settlement Class Period and sold during the 90-

Day Lookback Period cannot exceed the difference between the purchase price paid for such stock 

and the rolling average price of Yahoo common stock during the portion of the 90-Day Lookback 

Period elapsed as of the date of sale. 

In the calculations below, all purchase and sale prices shall exclude any fees, taxes and 

commissions. If a Recognized Loss amount is calculated to be a negative number, that 

Recognized Loss shall be set to zero. 

Calculation of Recognized Loss Per Share of Yahoo Common Stock 

For each share of Yahoo common stock purchased or otherwise acquired during the 

Settlement Class Period (i.e., April 30, 2013 through December 14, 2016, inclusive), the 

Recognized Loss per share shall be calculated as follows: 

i. For each share of Yahoo common stock purchased during the Settlement Class Period 

that was sold prior to May 19, 2015, the Recognized Loss per share is $0. 

ii. For each share of Yahoo common stock purchased during the Settlement Class Period 

that was subsequently sold during the period May 19, 2015 through December 14, 

2016, inclusive, the Recognized Loss per share is the amount of per-share price 

inflation on the date of purchase as appears in Table 1 above, minus the amount of 

per-share price inflation on the date of sale as appears in Table 1 above. 

iii. For each share of Yahoo common stock purchased during the Settlement Class Period 

that was subsequently sold during the period December 15, 2016 through March 14, 

2017, inclusive (i.e., the 90-Day Lookback Period), the Recognized Loss per share is 

the lesser of: 

a. the amount of per-share price inflation on the date of purchase as appears 

in Table 1 above; or 

b. the purchase price minus the “90-Day Lookback Value” on the date of sale 

provided in Table 2 below. 

iv. For each share of Yahoo common stock purchased during the Settlement Class Period 

and still held as of the close of trading on March 14, 2017, the Recognized Loss per 

share is the lesser of:

a. the amount of per-share price inflation on the date of purchase as appears 

in Table 1 above; or

Calculation of Recognized Loss for Call Options on Yahoo Common Stock 

For each Call Option purchased or otherwise acquired during the Settlement Class Period 

(i.e., April 30, 2013 through December 14, 2016, inclusive), the Recognized Loss per Call Option 

shall be calculated as follows: 

i. For each Call Option not held at the opening of trading on one or more of the 

Corrective Disclosure Dates as defined above, the Recognized Loss per Call Option is 

$0.00. 

ii. For each Call Option held at the opening of trading on one or more of the Corrective 

Disclosure Dates as defined above,

sf-3872399 

a. that was subsequently sold during the Settlement Class Period, the 

Recognized Loss per Call Option is the purchase price minus the sale 

price. 

b. that was subsequently exercised during the Settlement Class Period, the 

Recognized Loss per Call Option is the purchase price minus the intrinsic 

value of the option on the date of exercise, where the intrinsic value shall 

be the greater of: (i) $0.00 or (ii) the closing price of Yahoo common 

stock on the date of exercise minus the strike price of the option. 

c. that expired unexercised during the Settlement Class Period, the 

Recognized Loss per Call Option is equal to the purchase price. 

d. that was still held as of the close of trading on December 14, 2016, the 

Recognized Loss per Call Option is the purchase price minus the intrinsic 

value of the option as of the close of trading on December 14, 2016, where 

the intrinsic value shall be the greater of: (i) $0.00 or (ii) $40.91 minus the 

strike price of the option. 

No loss shall be recognized based on a sale or writing of any Call Option that was 

subsequently repurchased, exercised or expired. 

Calculation of Recognized Loss for Put Options on Yahoo Common Stock 

For each Put Option sold during the Settlement Class Period (i.e., April 30, 2013 through 

December 14, 2016, inclusive), the Recognized Loss per Put Option shall be calculated as follows: 

i. For each Put Option not open (not outstanding) at the opening of trading on one or 

more of the Corrective Disclosure Dates as defined above, the Recognized Loss per 

Put Option is $0.00. 

ii. For each Put Option open (outstanding) at the opening of trading on one or more of 

the Corrective Disclosure Dates as defined above, 

a. that was subsequently purchased during the Settlement Class Period, the 

Recognized Loss per Put Option is the purchase price minus the sale price. 

b. that was subsequently exercised (assigned) during the Settlement Class 

Period, the Recognized Loss per Put Option is the intrinsic value of the 

Put Option on the date of exercise minus the sale price, where the intrinsic 

value shall be the greater of: (i) $0.00 or (ii) the strike price of the option 

minus the closing price of Yahoo common stock on the date of exercise. 

c. that expired unexercised during the Settlement Class Period, the 

Recognized Loss per Put Option $0.00. 

d. that was still open (outstanding) as of the close of trading on December 

14, 2016, the Recognized Loss per Put Option is the intrinsic value of the

option as of the close of trading on December 14, 2016 minus the sale 

price, where the intrinsic value shall be the greater of: (i) $0.00 or (ii) the 

strike price of the option minus $40.91. 

No loss shall be recognized based on a purchase of any Put Option that was subsequently 

sold, exercised or expired.

INSTRUCTIONS APPLICABLE TO ALL CLAIMANTS 

The payment you receive will reflect your proportionate share of the Net Settlement Fund. 

Such payment will depend on the number of eligible securities that participate in the Settlement, 

and when those securities were purchased and sold. The number of claimants who send in claims 

varies widely from case to case. 

A purchase or sale of Yahoo securities shall be deemed to have occurred on the “contract” 

or “trade” date as opposed to the “settlement” or “payment” date. 

Acquisition by Gift, Inheritance, or Operation of Law: If a Settlement Class Member 

acquired Yahoo securities during the Settlement Class Period by way of gift, inheritance or 

operation of law, such a claim will be computed by using the date and price of the original purchase 

and not the date and price of transfer. To the extent that Yahoo common stock or a Call Option 

was originally purchased prior to commencement of the Settlement Class Period, the Recognized 

Loss for that acquisition shall be deemed to be zero ($0.00). To the extent that a Put Option was 

originally sold prior to commencement of the Settlement Class Period, the Recognized Loss for 

that sale shall be deemed to be zero ($0.00). 

Notwithstanding any of the above, receipt of Yahoo common securities during the 

Settlement Class Period in exchange for securities of any other corporation or entity shall not be 

deemed a purchase or sale of Yahoo securities. 

The first-in-first-out (“FIFO”) basis will be applied to purchases and sales. Sales will be 

matched in chronological order, by trade date, first against Yahoo securities held as of the close of 

trading on April 29, 2013 (the last day before the Settlement Class Period begins) and then against 

the purchases of Yahoo securities during the Class Period. 

The date of covering a “short sale” is deemed to be the date of purchase of shares. The 

date of a “short sale” is deemed to be the date of sale of shares. In accordance with the Plan of 

Allocation, however, the Recognized Loss on “short sales” is zero. In the event that a claimant 

has an opening short position in Yahoo common stock, the earliest Settlement Class Period 

purchases shall be matched against such opening short position and not be entitled to a recovery 

until that short position is fully covered. 

With respect to Yahoo common stock purchased or sold through the exercise of an option, 

the purchase/sale date of the stock shall be the exercise date of the option and the purchase/sale 

price of the stock shall be the closing price of Yahoo common stock on the date of exercise. Any 

Recognized Loss arising from purchases of Yahoo common stock acquired during the Settlement 

Case 5:17-cv-00373-LHK Document 86 Filed 05/01/18 Page 18 of 20
{00278453;1 } 19 

sf-3872399 

Class Period through the exercise of an option on Yahoo common stock5 shall be computed as 

provided for other purchases of Yahoo common stock in the Plan of Allocation. 

Payment according to the Plan of Allocation will be deemed conclusive against all 

Authorized Claimants. A Recognized Loss will be calculated as defined herein and cannot be less 

than zero. The Settlement Administrator shall allocate to each Authorized Claimant a pro rata

share of the Net Settlement Fund based on his, her, or its total Recognized Losses for all Yahoo 

common stock and Call Options he/she/it purchased during the Settlement Class Period and Put 

Options he/she/it sold during the Settlement Class Period, as compared to the total Recognized 

Losses of all Authorized Claimants (see the Plan of Allocation at p. __ for additional details). No 

distribution will be made to Authorized Claimants who would otherwise receive a distribution of 

less than $10.00. Cumulative payments of all claims associated with Call Options and Put Options 

on Yahoo common stock will be limited to 2% of the Net Settlement Fund.6 Thus, if the 

cumulative Recognized Loss amounts for Call and Put Option claims exceeds 2% of all 

Recognized Losses, then the Recognized Loss for Call and Put Option claims will be reduced 

proportionately until they collectively equal 2% of all Recognized Losses. In the unlikely event 

that the Net Settlement Fund, allocated as such, is sufficient to pay 100% of the Yahoo common 

stock claims, any excess amount will be used to pay the balance on the remaining Call and Put 

Option claims. 

Settlement Class Members who do not submit acceptable Proofs of Claim will not share in 

the Settlement proceeds. The Settlement and the Judgment and Order of Final Approval 

dismissing this Action will nevertheless bind Settlement Class Members who do not submit a 

request for exclusion and/or submit an acceptable Proof of Claim. 

Please contact the Settlement Administrator or Lead Counsel if you disagree with any 

determinations made by the Settlement Administrator regarding your Proof of Claim. If you are 

unsatisfied with the determinations, you may ask the Court, which retains jurisdiction over all 

Settlement Class Members and the claims-administration process, to decide the issue by submitting 

a written request. 

The Defendants, their respective counsel, and all other Released Persons will have no 

responsibility or liability whatsoever for the investment of the Settlement Fund, the distribution of 

the Net Settlement Fund, the Plan of Allocation, or the payment of any claim. Plaintiffs and Lead 

Counsel, likewise, will have no liability for their reasonable efforts to execute, administer, and 

distribute the Settlement. 

Distributions will be made to Authorized Claimants after all claims have been processed 

and after the Court has finally approved the Settlement. If any funds remain in the Net Settlement 

Fund by reason of uncashed distribution checks or otherwise, then, after the Settlement

 Including (1) purchases of Yahoo common stock as the result of the exercise of a call option, 

and (2) purchases of Yahoo common stock by the seller of a put option as a result of the buyer of 

such put option exercising that put option.

 Call and Put Options account for less than 2% of the combined dollar trading volume of Yahoo 

common stock and Call and Put Options during the Settlement Class Period.

Administrator has made reasonable and diligent efforts to have Settlement Class Members who 

are entitled to participate in the distribution of the Net Settlement Fund cash their distributions, 

any balance remaining in the Net Settlement Fund after at least six (6) months after the initial 

distribution of such funds will be used in the following fashion: (a) first, to pay any amounts 

mistakenly omitted from the initial disbursement; (b) second, to pay any additional settlement 

administration fees, costs, and expenses, including those of Lead Counsel as may be approved by 

the Court; and (c) finally, to make a second distribution to claimants who cashed their checks from 

the initial distribution and who would receive at least $10.00, after payment of the estimated costs, 

expenses, or fees to be incurred in administering the Net Settlement Fund and in making this 

second distribution, if such second distribution is economically feasible. These redistributions 

shall be repeated, if economically feasible, until the balance remaining in the Net Settlement Fund 

is de minimis and such remaining balance will then be distributed to a non-sectarian, not-for-profit 

organization identified by Lead Counsel.
