 1          Pursuant to Civil Local Rule 7-12, the parties hereby stipulate as follows:

 2          Whereas, on February 21, 2025, the Court granted Plaintiffs’ Motion for Final Approval

 3   of Class Action Settlement, ECF No. 280, and set a hearing for post-distribution accounting on

 4   August 26, 2025, with a status report due on August 12, 2025, ECF No. 278;

 5          Whereas, the Court-appointed Settlement Administrator, Angeion Group, has been

 6   distributing settlement funds to the Class pursuant to the Court’s Final Approval Order;

 7          Whereas, the Parties provide this update to the Court regarding the distributions to date,

 8   and based on information from Angeion Group, request a short extension of time to file the

 9   post-distribution accounting;

10          Whereas, on April 15, 2025, Angeion Group mailed checks to class members who elected

11   to receive physical checks in their claim forms;

12          Whereas, on April 22, 2025, Angeion Group sent out digital payments to class members

13   who elected to receive digital payments in their claim forms;

14          Whereas, a small percentage of class members elected to receive digital payments, but

15   had issues receiving their selected payment method (for example, they used an old account

16   number), and Angeion Group worked with these class members to get an updated payment

17   method selected by June 19, 2025;

18          Whereas, on June 20, 2025, Angeion sent out the “second chance” digital payments for

19   those class members who provided updated payment information and chose to receive digital

20   payments through E-Mastercard, ACH or Zelle;

21          Whereas, on June 30, 2025, Angeion sent out the “second chance” digital payments for

22   those class members who provided updated payment information and chose to receive digital

23   payments through PayPal or Venmo;

24          Whereas, on July 3, 2025, Angeion reissued “second chance” paper checks to class

25   members who had selected paper checks in their original claim form, but had that check

26   returned (such as for an invalid address) or did not cash the checks within the initial 30-day

27   void period, and, upon follow-up from Angeion, the class member either chose to receive a

28   second paper check or did not select a new digital method for their second chance payment;
                                                 2

 1            Whereas, if any of the class members who selected a digital second chance payment

 2   experience a second payment failure, Angeion will issue those class members a paper check on

 3   or around September 4, 2025, which will be valid for 30 days (until on or around October 4,

 4   2025);

 5            Whereas, at that time, Angeion will be able to complete a full reconciliation of the

 6   distribution of settlement funds;

 7            IT IS HEREBY STIPULATED AND AGREED, subject to the Court’s approval, that the

 8   August 26 hearing on post-distribution accounting be vacated and rescheduled for November

 9   4, 2025, at 2:30 pm, with a post-distribution accounting report to be filed two weeks prior (by

10   October 21, 2021).
