TO THE COURT, ALL PARTIES, AND THEIR ATTORNEYS OF RECORD:  
Pursuant to the Court’s ruling at the February 14, 2025 Status Conference, 
Plaintiffs were permitted to file a brief seeking to certify the breach of fiduciary duty 
claim as to the Customer Service Class. See Dkt. No. 423. Notice is hereby given that 
Plaintiffs will not seek to certify the breach of fiduciary duty claim as to the Customer 
Service Class and thus submit the Motion for Class Certification for decision without 
including the breach of fiduciary duty claim as to the Customer Service Class.  
Respectfully submitted,
