If you purchased or otherwise acquired Peloton’s securities between September 11, 2020 
and May 5, 2021, inclusive, and were damaged thereby, then you may be entitled to a 
payment from a class action settlement.1 
 
A federal court authorized this Notice. This is not a solicitation from a lawyer. 
 
 
The purpose of this notice (the “Notice”) is to inform you of the pendency of the 
securities class action in United States federal court (the “Action”), the proposed 
settlement of the Action (the “Settlement”), and a hearing to be held by the Court to 
consider: (i) whether the Settlement should be approved; (ii) whether the proposed plan 
for allocating the proceeds of the Settlement (the “Plan of Allocation”) should be 
approved; and (iii) whether Lead Counsel’s Fee and Expense Application should be 
approved. This Notice describes important rights you may have and what steps you must 
take if you wish to participate in the Settlement, wish to object, or wish to be excluded 
from the Settlement Class. 
 
 
On _____________, the Court preliminarily approved the Settlement. If given final 
approval by the Court, the proposed Settlement will create a $13,950,000 Settlement 
Fund, plus any interest or income earned thereon, for the benefit of eligible Settlement 
Class Members, less any attorneys’ fees, expenses, and costs awarded by the Court, 
Notice and Administration Expenses, and Taxes. 
 
 
This Settlement resolves claims by Richard Neswick, Lead Plaintiff in the Action (“Lead 
Plaintiff”), individually and on behalf of each member of the Settlement Class and 
Peloton Interactive, Inc. (“Peloton”), and John Foley, Jill Woodworth, Hisao Kushi, and 
Brad Olson (the “Individual Defendants,” and with Peloton, the “Defendants,” and 
collectively with Plaintiffs, the “Parties”).  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. 
 
 
Attorneys for Lead Plaintiff will ask the Court for 28% of the Settlement Fund and up to 
$100,000 in reimbursement for expenses incurred in prosecuting this lawsuit.  Lead 
Counsel also intends to ask the Court to grant Lead Plaintiff an award of up to $5,000 for 
reasonable costs and expenses (including lost wages) directly relating to his 
representation of the class.  If approved by the Court, these amounts (totaling 
approximately $0.029 per allegedly damaged share) will be paid from the Settlement 
Fund. 
 


All capitalized terms not otherwise defined in this document shall have the meaning 
provided in the Stipulation of Settlement dated April 17, 2023 (the “Stipulation”).

The estimated notice and claims administration costs for this Settlement, which shall be 
paid from the Settlement Fund, are $653,162. The cost is only an estimate, however, as the

SUMMARY OF THE NOTICE 
 
Statement of Plaintiff’s Recovery 
 
 
Subject to Court approval, Lead Plaintiff, on behalf of the Settlement Class, has entered 
into a proposed Settlement with Defendants that, if approved by the Court, will resolve this 
Action in its entirety. Pursuant to the proposed Settlement, a Settlement Fund consisting of 
$13.950 million in cash (the “Settlement Amount”), plus any accrued interest or earnings thereon 
(the “Settlement Fund”), has been established. 
 
Estimated of Average Amount of Recovery Per Share 
 
 
Based on Lead Plaintiff’s consulting damages expert’s analysis, it is estimated that if 
Settlement Class Members submit claims for 100% of Peloton securities entitled to participate 
in the Settlement, the estimated average recovery per share would be $0.10 per share before 
deduction of Court-approved fees and expenses, and approximately $0.067 per share after 
Court-approved fees and expenses are deducted.  Please note, however, that these average 
recovery amounts are only estimates and an individual Settlement Class Member may recover 
more or less than these estimated amounts. As described more fully below in the Plan of 
Allocation beginning on page 15, an individual Settlement Class Member’s actual recovery will 
depend on several factors, including: (a) the total number of claims submitted; (b) the amount of 
the Net Settlement Fund; (c) when the Settlement Class Member purchased his, her, or its 
Peloton securities; and (d) whether and when the Settlement Class Member sold his, her, or its 
Peloton securities. 
 
Statement of Potential Outcome of the Case if the Action Continued to be Litigated 
 
The Parties disagree about both liability and damages and do not agree on the damages 
that would be recoverable if Lead Plaintiff were to prevail on each claim asserted against 
Defendants. The issues on which the Parties disagree include, for example: (i) whether the 
statements made or facts allegedly omitted were materially false or misleading, or otherwise 
actionable under the federal securities laws; (ii) the causes of the loss in the value of the stock; 
and (iii) the amount of alleged damages, if any, that could be recovered at trial. 
 
Defendants have denied and continue to deny any wrongdoing, deny that they have 
committed any act or omission giving rise to any liability or violation of law, and deny that 
Lead Plaintiff and the Settlement Class Members have suffered any loss attributable to 
Defendants’ actions. While Lead Plaintiff believes she has meritorious claims, she recognizes 
that there are significant obstacles in the way to recovery. 
 
Statement of Attorneys’ Fees and Expenses Sought 
 
Lead Counsel will apply to the Court for attorneys’ fees of 28% of the Settlement Fund, 
which includes any accrued interest or earnings thereon.  Lead Counsel has not received any 
payment for their services rendered or expenses incurred in conducting this Action on behalf of 
Case 1:21-cv-02369-CBA-PK   Document 80-2   Filed 04/17/23   Page 5 of 24 PageID #: 1438

4 
Lead Plaintiff and the Settlement Class.  Lead Counsel will also apply for payment of expenses 
incurred by Lead Counsel in prosecuting the Action of up to $100,000, plus accrued interest, 
which may include an application pursuant to the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 
1995 (“PSLRA”) for the reasonable costs and expenses of Lead Plaintiff of up to $5,000 
directly relating to his representation of the Settlement Class.  Collectively, these applications 
are referred to as the “Fee and Expense Application.”  If approved by the Court, these amounts 
(totaling approximately $0.029 per share, assuming claims are filed for all shares eligible to 
participate in the Settlement) will be paid from the Settlement Fund. 
 
Reasons for the Settlement  
 
For Lead Plaintiff, the principal reason for the Settlement is the immediate benefit of a 
substantial cash recovery to the Settlement Class.  This benefit must be compared to the 
uncertainty of being able to prove the allegations in the operative complaint; the risk that the 
Court may grant, in whole or in part, some or all of the anticipated motions for summary 
judgment to be filed by Defendants; the attendant risks of litigation, especially in complex 
actions such as this, as well as the difficulties and delays inherent in such litigation (including 
any trial and appeals). 
 
For Defendants, who deny all allegations of wrongdoing or liability whatsoever and 
deny that any Settlement Class Members were damaged, the principal reasons for entering into 
the Settlement are to end the burden, expense, uncertainty, and risk of further litigation. 
 
Identification of Legal Representatives 
 
Lead Plaintiff and the Settlement Class are represented by Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP, Court-
appointed Lead Counsel.  Any questions regarding the Settlement should be directed to James 
M. Wilson, Jr. at Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP, 685 Third Avenue, 26th Floor, New York, NY 10017,

BASIC INFORMATION 
 
1. Why did I get the Postcard Notice? 
 
 
 
You or someone in your family, or an investment account for which you serve as a 
custodian, may have purchased or otherwise acquired Peloton securities between September 11, 
2020 and May 5, 2021, inclusive.  This Notice explains the Action, the Settlement, Settlement 
Class Members’ legal rights, what benefits are available, who is eligible for them, and how to 
get them. Receipt of the Postcard Notice does not mean that you are a Member of the Settlement 
Class or that you will be entitled to receive a payment. If you wish to be eligible for a 
payment, you are required to submit the Claim Form available on the settlement website, 
www.PelotonSecuritiesSettlement.com. 
 
The court directed this Notice be made available to Settlement Class Members to inform 
them of the terms of the proposed Settlement and about all of their options, before the Court 
Case 1:21-cv-02369-CBA-PK   Document 80-2   Filed 04/17/23   Page 6 of 24 PageID #: 1439

5 
decides whether to approve the Settlement at the upcoming hearing to consider the fairness, 
reasonableness, and adequacy of the Settlement, the proposed Plan of Allocation, and Lead 
Counsel’s Fee and Expense Application (the “Settlement Hearing”). 
 
The Court in charge of the case is the United States District Court for the Eastern 
District of New York, and the Action is known as In re Peloton Interactive, Inc. Securities 
Litigation, No. 1:21-cv-02369-CBA-PK (E.D.N.Y.). 
 
2. What is a class action? 
 
 
 
In a class action, one or more plaintiffs, called lead plaintiffs or class representatives, sue 
on behalf of people who have similar claims.  The individuals and entities on whose behalf the 
class representative is suing are known as class members.  One court resolves the issues in the 
case for all class members, except for those who choose to exclude themselves from the class if 
exclusion is permitted by applicable rules of procedure. 
 
3. What is this case about and what has happened so far? 
 
 
 
 
This is a federal securities class action lawsuit. 
 
Peloton is a technology-enabled fitness company based in New York, NY.  Lead 
Plaintiff alleges that during the Class Period, Defendants made materially false and/or 
misleading statements regarding the safety of its Tread and Tread+ machines, as alleged in the 
Amended Class Action Complaint (“AC”). 
 
On April 29, 2021, the initial federal complaint in the Action was filed.  ECF No. 1.  On 
June 28, 2021, Richard Neswick filed a motion for (1) consolidation, (2) appointment as Lead 
Plaintiff, and (3) approval of Lead Counsel.  ECF No. 25.  On October 26, 2021, Magistrate 
Judge Peggy Kuo issued an order recommending that the motion be granted (ECF No. 37), 
which was adopted by Judge Carol Bagley Amon on November 16, 2021.  On January 21, 2022, 
Lead Plaintiff filed the AC.  ECF No. 45.  On March 7, 2022, Defendants filed a motion to 
dismiss the AC, which Lead Plaintiff opposed on April 26, 2021.  ECF Nos. 51-52, 55.  The 
Court held oral argument on the motion to dismiss on June 8, 2022.    
 
On December 15, 2022, while Defendants’ motion to dismiss remained pending, the 
Parties participated in a mediation, conducted by David Murphy of Phillips ADR.  During the 
all-day mediation, the Parties reached an agreement-in-principle, subject to certain 
Confirmatory Discovery and Court approval, to settle and release the claims asserted against 
Defendants in the Action. 
 
On or about January 16, 2023, Defendants commenced their production of documents in 
connection with the Confirmatory Discovery.  Lead Plaintiff is continuing to diligently review 
the documents to confirm the adequacy of the settlement.

4. How and when was the Settlement reached? 
 
 
 
The Parties engaged David Murphy of Phillips ADR (the “Mediator”), a well-respected 
and highly experienced mediator and former securities litigator, to explore a potential negotiated 
resolution of the claims in the Action.  The mediation involved an extended discussion about a 
potential resolution, and was preceded by the exchange of mediation statements and reply 
mediation statements. During the December 15, 2022, mediation, the Parties reached an 
agreement-in-principle, subject to certain confirmatory discovery and Court approval, to settle 
and release the claims asserted against Defendants in the Action in exchange for a lump sum 
cash payment of $13,950,000.  The Parties memorialized their agreement in a memorandum of 
understanding and thereafter negotiated the terms of this final settlement Stipulation.  The 
Stipulation (together with its exhibits) constitutes the final and binding agreement between the 
Parties. 
 
The Settlement was reached after arm’s-length negotiations between Lead Counsel and 
counsel for Defendants, and only after: (a) Lead Counsel conducted a lengthy investigation into 
the facts alleged in the Action, which included an investigation by a private investigator; (b) 
Lead Counsel drafted the amended complaint; (c) Lead Plaintiff and Defendants engaged in 
comprehensive briefing on Defendants’ Motion to Dismiss and Request for Judicial Notice; (d) 
Lead Counsel researched the applicable law with respect to the claims against Defendants and 
the potential defenses thereto; (e) Lead Counsel consulted with experts regarding the facts of the 
case; (f) the Parties exchanged detailed mediation statements and exhibits; (g) the Parties 
conducted a mediation and engaged in settlement negotiations; and (h) Lead Counsel has 
reviewed a significant number of pages of discovery Defendants provided following the 
mediation to gauge the strengths and weaknesses of the Action and Defendants’ potential 
defenses thereto to make sure that the Settlement Amount was fair, reasonable, and adequate

THE SETTLEMENT BENEFITS – WHAT YOU GET 
 
8. What does the Settlement provide? 
 
 
In exchange for the Settlement and release of the Released Claims against the Released 
Defendant Parties, Defendants have agreed to create a $13.95 million cash fund for the 
Settlement Class.  After deductions for Court-awarded fees, expenses, and costs, settlement 
administration costs, and any applicable Taxes, the balance of the Settlement Fund (the “Net 
Settlement Fund”) will be distributed pro rata pursuant to the “Plan of Allocation” among all 
Settlement Class Members who submit valid and timely Claim Forms and are found to be 
eligible to receive a distribution from the Net Settlement Fund (“Authorized Claimants”). 
 
The Plan of Allocation, which is subject to Court approval, is discussed in more detail 
on pages 15-22 of this Notice. 
 
9. How can I receive payment? 
 
 
To qualify for a payment, you must submit a timely and valid Claim Form with 
supporting documents.  A Claim Form has been made available on the website dedicated to the 
Settlement: www.PelotonSecuritiesSettlement.com.  You can request that a Claim Form be 
mailed to you by calling the Claims Administrator toll-free at (855) 518-3039. Please read the 
Case 1:21-cv-02369-CBA-PK   Document 80-2   Filed 04/17/23   Page 9 of 24 PageID #: 1442

8 
instructions contained in the Claim Form carefully, fill out the Claim Form, include all the 
documents the form requests, sign it, and either mail it to the Claims Administrator or submit it 
through email at Info@PelotonSecuritiesSettlement.com, so it is postmarked (or received if sent 
via email) no later than ______________________. 
  
If you have large numbers of transactions, you may request, or may be requested to, 
submit information regarding your transactions in electronic files.  If you wish to submit your 
transaction data electronically, you must contact the Claims Administrator at 
Info@PelotonSecuritiesSettlement.com or visit their website at 
www.PelotonSecuritiesSettlement.com to obtain the required file layout.  You must still timely 
submit a signed Claim Form electronically, by mail, or email, as specified above. 
 
No electronic files will be considered to have been properly submitted unless the Claims 
Administrator issues to the claimant a written acknowledgement of receipt and acceptance of 
electronically submitted data. All claimants MUST timely submit a signed Claim Form to be 
potentially eligible for a payment from this Settlement. 
 
10. When will I receive my payment? 
 
 
The Court will hold the Settlement Hearing on ________________________, to decide 
whether to approve the Settlement in the Action. If the Court approves the Settlement, there 
may be appeals after that. It is always uncertain whether these appeals can be resolved, and 
resolving them can take time, perhaps more than a year.  It also takes time for all the Claim 
Forms to be processed.  Please be patient. 
 
11. What am I giving up to receive a payment or stay in the Settlement Class? 
 
 
If you are a Settlement Class Member, unless you exclude yourself, you are staying in 
the Class, and that means that, upon the “Effective Date,” you will release all “Released 
Plaintiffs’ Claims” (as defined below) against the “Defendants’ Releasees” (as defined below). 
 
“Released Plaintiffs’ Claims” means all claims, rights, causes of action, duties, 
obligations, demands, actions, debts, sums of money, suits, contracts, agreements, promises, 
damages and liabilities, whether known or Unknown Claims, contingent or non-contingent, 
indirect or direct, or suspected or unsuspected, including any claims arising under federal or 
state statutory or common law or any other law, rule or regulation, whether foreign or domestic, 
that have been asserted, could have been asserted, or could be asserted in the future against 
Defendants or any of the Defendants’ Releasees that (i) arise out of or relate in any way to, or 
are based upon, the allegations, transactions, acts, facts, events, matters, occurrences, 
representations or omissions involved, set forth, alleged or referred to in the operative complaint 
in the Action or in any of the prior complaints, or (ii) in any way are based upon or related to, 
directly or indirectly, the purchase or sale or other acquisition or disposition, or holding, of 
Peloton securities during the Class Period.  For the avoidance of doubt, Released Plaintiffs’ 
Claims include, but are not limited to, any claims under the Securities Act of 1933 or the 
Case 1:21-cv-02369-CBA-PK   Document 80-2   Filed 04/17/23   Page 10 of 24 PageID #: 1443

Securities Exchange Act of 1934, or the securities laws of any state or territory. The following 
claims are explicitly excluded from release:  (1) all claims related to the enforcement of the 
Settlement; (2) asserted derivatively purportedly on behalf of Peloton in In re Peloton 
Interactive, Inc. Derivative Litigation, Case No. 1:21-cv-02862-CBA-PK (E.D.N.Y), In re 
Peloton Interactive, Inc. Stockholder Derivative Litigation, Case No. 2022-1051-KSJM (Del. 
Ch.), or Manzella v. Cortese, et al., Case No. 2023-0224-KSJM (Del. Ch.) (together, the 
“Derivative Actions”); (3) asserted by plaintiff in its June 25, 2022 complaint filed in Robeco 
Capital Growth Funds v. Peloton Interactive, Inc., Case No. 21-cv-9582 (S.D.N.Y.) (“SDNY

asserts allegations that are substantially similar to those made in the June 25, 2022 complaint; or 
(4) any claims of any person or entity who or which submits a request for exclusion from the 
Settlement that is accepted by the Court.  Nothing in this Settlement shall waive any arguments 
or defenses Defendants may assert in, in connection with, or otherwise related to any other 
litigation or matter, including, but not limited to, the Derivative Actions or the SDNY Action. 
 
“Defendants’ Releasees” means Defendants, and any and all of their related parties in 
any forum, including, without limitation, any and all of their current, former, or future parents, 
subsidiaries, affiliates, predecessors, successors, divisions, investment funds, joint ventures and 
general or limited partnerships, and each of their respective current or former officers, directors, 
trustees, partners, shareholders, owners, members, contractors, subcontractors, auditors, 
principals, agents, managing agents, employees, attorneys, accountants, investment bankers, 
underwriters, co-insurers or insurers in their capacities as such, as well as each of the Individual 
Defendants’ Immediate Family members, heirs, executors, personal or legal representatives, 
estates, beneficiaries, predecessors, successors and assigns. 
 
“Released Defendants’ Claims” means all claims and causes of action of every nature 
and description, whether known or Unknown Claims, whether arising under federal, state, local, 
common, statutory, administrative, or foreign law, or any other law, rule, or regulation, at law or 
in equity, whether fixed or contingent, whether foreseen or unforeseen, whether accrued or 
unaccrued, whether liquidated or unliquidated, whether matured or unmatured, whether direct, 
representative, class, or individual in nature, that arise out of or relate in any way to the 
institution, prosecution, or settlement of the claims against Defendants, which Defendants will 
release as against Plaintiffs’ Releasees upon the Effective Date. Released Defendants’ Claims 
shall not include:  (1) any claims relating to the enforcement of the Settlement; or (2) any claims 
against any Person or entity who or which submits a request for exclusion from the Settlement 
Class that is accepted by the Court. 
 
“Plaintiffs’ Releasees” means (i) Lead Plaintiff, his attorneys, and all other Settlement 
Class Members; (ii) affiliates, current and former parents, subsidiaries, successors, 
predecessors, assigns, executors, administrators, representatives, attorneys, and agents of each 
of the foregoing in (i); and (iii) the current and former officers, directors, Immediate Family 
members, heirs, trusts, trustees, executors, estates, administrators, beneficiaries, agents, 
affiliates, insurers, reinsurers, predecessors, successors, assigns, and advisors of each of the

“Unknown Claims” means any Released Plaintiffs’ Claims which any Lead Plaintiff or 
Case 1:21-cv-02369-CBA-PK   Document 80-2   Filed 04/17/23   Page 11 of 24 PageID #: 1444

10 
any other Settlement Class Member does not know or suspect to exist in his, her, or its favor at 
the time of the release of such claims, and any Released Defendants’ Claims that any Defendant 
does not know or suspect to exist in his, her, or its favor at the time of the release of such 
claims, which, if known by him, her, or it, might have materially affected his, her, or its 
decision(s) with respect to this Settlement. With respect to any and all Released Claims, the 
Parties stipulate and agree that, upon the Effective Date of the Settlement, Lead Plaintiff and 
Defendants shall expressly waive, and each of the other Settlement Class Members shall be 
deemed to have waived, and by operation of the Judgment or the Alternate Judgment, if 
applicable, shall have expressly waived, any and all provisions, rights, and benefits conferred by 
any law of any state or territory of the United States, or principle of common law or foreign law, 
which is similar, comparable, or equivalent to California Civil Code §1542, which provides: 
 
A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS THAT THE 
CREDITOR OR RELEASING PARTY DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO 
EXIST IN HIS OR HER FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE 
RELEASE AND THAT, IF KNOWN BY HIM OR HER, WOULD HAVE 
MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS OR HER SETTLEMENT WITH THE 
DEBTOR OR RELEASED PARTY. 
 
Lead Plaintiff, other Settlement Class Members, Defendants, or any of Defendants’ Releasees 
may hereafter discover facts, legal theories, or authorities in addition to or different from those 
which any of them now knows or believes to be true with respect to the subject matter of the 
Released Claims, but Lead Plaintiff and Defendants shall expressly, fully, finally, and forever 
waive, compromise, settle, discharge, extinguish, and release, and each Settlement Class 
Member shall be deemed to have waived, compromised, settled, discharged, extinguished, and 
released, and upon the Effective Date and by operation of the Judgment or Alternative 
Judgment shall have waived, compromised, settled, discharged, extinguished, and released, 
fully, finally, and forever, any and all Released Claims, known or unknown, suspected or 
unsuspected, contingent or absolute, accrued or unaccrued, apparent or unapparent, which now 
exist, or heretofore existed, or may hereafter exist, without regard to the subsequent discovery 
or existence of such different or additional facts, legal theories, or authorities. Lead Plaintiff and 
Defendants acknowledge, and each of the other Settlement Class Members shall be deemed by 
operation of law to have acknowledged, that the foregoing waiver was separately bargained for 
and a material element of the Settlement. 
 
The “Effective Date” will occur when the Court has entered the Preliminary Approval 
Order; Defendants have not exercised their option to terminate the Settlement pursuant to the 
provisions of this Stipulation; Lead Plaintiff has not exercised his option to terminate the 
Settlement pursuant to the provisions of this Stipulation; the Court has approved the Settlement; 
the Settlement Amount has been deposited into the Escrow Account; and the Judgment has 
become Final, or the Court has entered an Alternate Judgment and none of the Parties seek to 
terminate the Settlement and the Alternate Judgment has become Final. 
 
If you remain a member of the Settlement Class, all of the Court’s orders will apply to 
you and legally bind you.  You will be bound by the releases whether or not you submit a Claim 
Form and/or receive a payment under the Settlement.

EXCLUDING YOURSELF FROM THE SETTLEMENT 
 
If you do not want to be eligible to receive a payment from the Settlement, but you want 
to keep any right you may have to sue or continue to sue the Defendants’ Releasees on your 
own about the Releases, then you must take steps to remove yourself from the Settlement Class.  
This is called excluding yourself or “opting out” of the Settlement Class.  Please note: If you 
decide to exclude yourself and bring your own claims, Defendants will have the right to 
seek their dismissal, and there is a risk that any lawsuit you file or have already filed to 
pursue claims alleged in the Action may be dismissed.  Also, Defendants may terminate 
the Settlement if Settlement Class Members who purchased in excess of a certain amount 
of Peloton shares seek exclusion from the Settlement Class. 
 
12. How do I exclude myself from the U.S. Settlement Class? 
 
 
To exclude yourself from the Settlement Class, you must send a signed letter by mail 
stating that you request to be “excluded from the Settlement Class and do not wish to participate 
in the settlement in In re Peloton Interactive, Inc. Securities Litigation, No. 1:21-cv-02369-
CBA-PK (E.D.N.Y.).”  You cannot exclude yourself by telephone or e-mail.  To be valid, your 
letter must state: (A) your name, address, telephone number, and signature; (B) the date, 
number, and dollar amount of all purchases or acquisitions of Peloton securities between 
September 11, 2020 and May 5, 2021, inclusive; and (C) the date, number, and dollar amount of 
Peloton shares you sold between May 5, 2021 and August 2, 2021, inclusive. The letter must 
also be accompanied by copies of broker confirmations or other documentation of your 
transactions in Peloton securities. You must mail your exclusion request such that it is 
received, not simply postmarked, no later than _______________ to: 
 
In re Peloton Interactive, Inc. Securities Litigation 
Epiq Systems, Inc. 
PO Box 2915 
Portland, OR 97208-2915 
 
If you ask to be excluded, you will not get any payment from the Settlement, and you 
cannot object to the Settlement. You will not be legally bound by anything that happens in this 
lawsuit, and you may be able to sue (or continue to sue) the Defendants and the other 
Defendants’ Releasees in the future. 
 
13. If I do not exclude myself, can I sue the Defendants and the other Released 
Parties for the same thing later? 
 
No. Unless you exclude yourself, you give up any rights to sue the Defendants and the 
other Released Defendant Parties for any and all Released Claims. If you have a pending lawsuit 
speak to your lawyer in that case immediately. You must exclude yourself from this Settlement 
Class to continue your own lawsuit. Remember, the exclusion deadline is

14. If I exclude myself, can I get money from the proposed Settlement? 
 
 
 
No. If you exclude yourself, you will not get money from the proposed Settlement. 
 
THE LAWYERS REPRESENTING THE CLASS 
 
15. Do I have a lawyer in this case?  How will the lawyers be paid? 
 
 
The Court has appointed the law firm of Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP as Lead Counsel to 
represent Lead Plaintiff and all other Settlement Class Members in the Action. 
 
You will not be separately charged for the fees or expenses of Lead Counsel appointed 
by the Court. The Court will determine the amount of Lead Counsel’s fees and expenses, which 
will be paid from the Settlement Fund. See also Notice at 3-4 (“Statement of Attorneys’ Fees 
and Expenses Sought”). If you want to be represented by your own lawyer, you may hire one at 
your own expense. 
 
OBJECTING TO THE SETTLEMENT, THE PLAN OF ALLOCATION, OR THE FEE 
AND EXPENSE APPLICATION 
 
If you are a Settlement Class Member, you can tell the Court that you do not agree with 
the Settlement or some part of it.  You can ask the Court to deny approval by filing an 
objection.  You can’t ask the Court to order a different settlement; the Court can only approve 
or reject the Settlement.  If the Court denies approval, no settlement payments will be sent out 
and the lawsuit will continue.  If this is what you want to happen, you must object. 
 
16. How do I tell the Court that I do not like the proposed Settlement? 
 
 
If you are a Settlement Class Member, you can object to the Settlement or any of its 
terms, the proposed Plan of Allocation, and/or the Fee and Expense Application, and give 
reasons why you think the Court should not approve it.  If the Court denies approval of the 
Settlement, no payments will be made to Settlement Class Members, the Parties will return to 
the position they were in before the Settlement was agreed to, and the Action will continue. 
 
To object, you must send a signed letter stating that you object to the proposed 
Settlement, the proposed Plan of Allocation, and/or the Fee and Expense Application in “In re 
Peloton Interactive, Inc. Securities Litigation, No. 1:21-cv-02369-CBA-PK (E.D.N.Y.).” Your 
objection must state why you are objecting and must also: (i) include your name, address, 
telephone number, and signature; (ii) contain a statement of the objection and the specific 
reasons for it, including any legal and evidentiary support (including witnesses) you wish to 
bring to the Court’s attention; and (iii) documentation identifying the number of Peloton 
securities you purchased or acquired between September 11, 2020 and May 5, 2021, and 
documentation identifying the number of Peloton shares you sold between May 5, 2021 and

13 
August 2, 2021, inclusive.  Unless otherwise ordered by the Court, any Settlement Class 
Member who does not object in the manner described in this Notice will be deemed to have 
waived any objection and will be forever foreclosed from making any objection to the proposed 
Settlement, Plan of Allocation, and/or Lead Counsel’s Fee and Expense Application. Your 
objection must be filed with the Court at the address below, either by mail or in person, and be 
mailed or delivered to each of the following counsel so that it is received, not simply 
postmarked, no later than __________, 2023:

17. What is the difference between objecting and seeking exclusion? 
 
 
Objecting is telling the Court that you do not like something about the proposed 
Settlement, Plan of Allocation, or Fee and Expense Application. You can still recover money 
from the Settlement. You can object only if you stay in the Settlement Class.  Excluding 
yourself is telling the Court that you do not want to be part of the Settlement Class.  If you 
exclude yourself, you have no basis to object because the Settlement and the Action no longer 
affect you. 
 
THE COURT’S SETTLEMENT HEARING 
 
18. When and where will the Court decide whether to approve the proposed 
settlement? 
 
 
The Court will hold the Settlement Hearing at ____ a.m/p.m. on the _____ day of

Roosevelt Court House, 225 Cadman Plaza East, Brooklyn, New York, 11201, Courtroom 
_____. At this hearing the Court will consider whether: (i) the Settlement is fair, reasonable and 
adequate, and should receive final approval; (ii) the Plan of Allocation is fair and reasonable, 
and should be approved; (iii) the Fee and Expense Application is reasonable and should be

with the instructions in question 16 above. We do not know how long it will take the Court to 
make these decisions. 
 
You should be aware that the Court may change the date and time of the Settlement 
Hearing, or hold the hearing telephonically, without another notice being sent to Settlement 
Class Members. If you want to attend the hearing, you should check with Lead Counsel 
beforehand to be sure that the date and/or time has not changed, or periodically check the 
Settlement website at www.PelotonSecuritiesSettlement.com, to see if the Settlement Hearing 
stays as calendared or is changed. 
 
19. Do I have to come to the Settlement Hearing? 
 
 
No. Lead Counsel will answer any questions the Court may have. But, you are welcome 
to come at your own expense. If you submit a valid and timely objection, the Court will 
consider it and you do not have to come to the Court to discuss it.  You may have your own 
lawyer (at your own expense), but it is not required.  If you do hire your own lawyer, he or she 
must file a Notice of Appearance in the manner described in the answer to Question 20 below 
no later than ___________________, 2023. 
 
20. May I speak at the Settlement Hearing? 
 
 
If you object to the Settlement, you may ask the Court for permission to speak at the 
Settlement Hearing.  To do so, you must include with your objection (see question 16 above) a 
statement stating that it is your “Notice of Intention to Appear in “In re Peloton Interactive, Inc. 
Securities Litigation, No. 1:21-cv-02369-CBA-PK (E.D.N.Y.).”  Persons who intend to present 
evidence at the Settlement Hearing must also include in their written objections the identities of 
any witnesses they wish to call to testify and any exhibits they intend to introduce into evidence 
at the Settlement Hearing.  Unless otherwise ordered by the Court, you cannot speak at the 
hearing if you excluded yourself from the Settlement Class or if you have not provided written 
notice of your intention to speak at the Settlement Hearing by the deadline identified, and in 
accordance with the procedures described in this Question 20 and Question 16. 
 
IF YOU DO NOTHING 
 
21. What happens if I do nothing at all? 
 
 
If you do nothing and you are a member of the Settlement Class, you will receive no 
money from this Settlement and you will be precluded from starting a lawsuit, continuing with a 
lawsuit, or being part of any other lawsuit against Defendants and the other Defendants’

PROPOSED PLAN OF ALLOCATION OF NET SETTLEMENT FUND AMONG 
SETTLEMENT CLASS MEMBERS 
 
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 Company-specific 
factors unrelated to the alleged fraud. The Claims Administrator shall determine each Authorized 
Claimant’s share of the Net Settlement Fund based upon the recognized loss formula (the 
“Recognized Loss”) described below. A Recognized Loss will be calculated for each share of 
Peloton Common Stock and each Peloton Call Option purchased or otherwise acquired during the 
Case 1:21-cv-02369-CBA-PK   Document 80-2   Filed 04/17/23   Page 17 of 24 PageID #: 1450

16 
Settlement Class Period, and each Peloton Put Option sold during the Settlement Class Period.3 
The calculation of Recognized Loss will depend upon several factors, including when the Peloton 
Security was purchased during the Settlement Class Period, and for what amount, and whether the 
security was sold, and if sold, when it was sold, and for what amount. 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 Claims 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 price of Peloton Common Stock was artificially inflated throughout the 
Settlement Class Period.4 The estimated alleged artificial inflation in the price of Peloton Common 
Stock during the Settlement Class Period is reflected in Table 1 below. The computation of the 
estimated alleged artificial inflation in the price of Peloton Common Stock during the Settlement 
Class Period is based on certain misrepresentations alleged by Lead Plaintiff 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 Lead Plaintiff.  
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, Peloton 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 allegedly corrected a 
misleading statement or omission. Lead Plaintiff and Lead Counsel have determined that such 
price declines occurred on March 18, 2021, April 19, 2021, and May 5, 2021 (the “Corrective 
Disclosure Dates”). Accordingly, if a share of Peloton Common Stock was sold before March 18, 
2021 (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 
Peloton Common Stock was both purchased and sold between two consecutive Corrective 
Disclosure Dates, the Recognized Loss for that share is $0.00. With respect to Peloton Call 
Options, in order for a Settlement Class Member to have a Recognized Loss under the Plan of 
Allocation, the Peloton Call Option must have been purchased or acquired during the Settlement 
Class Period and held on at least one of the Corrective Disclosure Dates. With respect to Peloton 
Put Options, the Peloton Put Option must have been sold (written) during the Settlement Class 
Period and not closed on at least one of the Corrective Disclosure Dates.

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. The limitations on the 
calculation of the Recognized Loss imposed by the PSLRA are applied such that losses on Peloton 
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 
Peloton Common Stock during the 90-Day Lookback Period. The Recognized Loss on Peloton 
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 Peloton 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 ($0.00). Any transaction in a Peloton Security executed outside of regular 
trading hours for the U.S. financial markets shall be deemed to have occurred during the next 
regular trading session. 
Calculation of Recognized Loss Per Share of Peloton Common Stock 
For each share of Peloton Common Stock purchased or otherwise acquired during the Settlement 
Class Period (i.e., September 11, 2020 through May 5, 2021, inclusive), the Recognized Loss per 
share shall be calculated as follows: 
I. 
For each share of Peloton Common Stock purchased between September 11, 2020 
through May 5, 2021, at 9:57 a.m. ET, inclusive,  
 
a. 
that was sold prior to May 5, 2021, at 9:57 a.m. ET, the Recognized Loss 
per share is the price inflation on the date of purchase/acquisition as 
 
5 The alleged disclosure of information, which allegedly corrected a misleading statement or 
omission on March 18, 2021, occurred at approximately 12:52 p.m. Purchases and sales of 
Peloton Common Stock on March 18, 2021 at a price above $105.00 shall be considered to have 
occurred prior to the alleged corrective disclosure that day, at $22.84 per-share price inflation. 
Purchases and sales of Peloton Common Stock on March 18, 2021 at a price equal to or below 
$105.00 shall be considered to have occurred after the alleged corrective disclosure that day, at 
$19.71 per-share price inflation. 
6 The alleged disclosure of information which allegedly corrected a misleading statement or 
omission on May 5, 2021, occurred at approximately 9:57 a.m. Purchases and sales of Peloton 
Common Stock on May 5, 2021 at a price above $94.00 shall be considered to have occurred 
prior to the alleged corrective disclosure that day, at $13.23 per-share price inflation. Purchases 
and sales of Peloton Common Stock on May 5, 2021 at a price equal to or below $94.00 shall be 
considered to have occurred after the alleged corrective disclosure that day, at $0.00 per-share 
price inflation.

provided in Table 1 above minus the price inflation on the date of sale as 
provided in Table 1 above. 
 
b. 
that was sold during the period May 5, 2021, at 9:57 a.m. ET, through 
August 2, 2021, inclusive, the Recognized Loss per share is the lesser of: 
 
i. 
the price inflation on the date of purchase/acquisition as provided in 
Table 1 above; or 
 
ii. 
the purchase price minus the “90-Day Lookback Value” on the date 
of sale, which is provided in Table 2 below. 
c. 
that was still held as of the close of trading on August 2, 2021, the 
Recognized Loss per share is the lesser of: 
i. 
the price inflation on the date of purchase/acquisition as provided in 
Table 1 above; or 
ii. 
the purchase price minus the average closing price for the Common 
Stock during the 90-Day Lookback Period, which is $110.40. 
II. 
For each share of Peloton Common Stock purchased or otherwise acquired after 
May 5, 2021, at 9:57 a.m. ET, the Recognized Loss per share is $0.00.

For each Peloton Call Option that was sold prior to May 5, 2021, the Recognized Loss 
is the purchase price minus the sale price. 
II. 
For each Peloton Call Option exercised prior to May 5, 2021, the Recognized Loss is 
the purchase price minus the intrinsic value of the Peloton Call Option on the date of 
exercise, where the intrinsic value shall be the greater of: (i) $0.00 or (ii) the closing 
price of Common Stock on the date of exercise minus the strike price of the option. 
III. 
For each Peloton Call Option that expired unexercised prior to May 5, 2021, the 
Recognized Loss is equal to the purchase price. 
IV. 
For each Peloton Call Option that was still held as of May 5, 2021, the Recognized 
Loss is the purchase price minus the intrinsic value of the Peloton Call Option as of the 
close of trading on May 5, 2021, where the intrinsic value shall be the greater of: (i) 
$0.00 or (ii) $82.627 minus the strike price of the option. 
 
No Recognized Loss shall be calculated based upon purchase or acquisition of any Peloton Call 
Option that had been previously sold or written. 
Calculation of Recognized Loss Per Peloton Put Option 
The Recognized Loss shall be $0.00 for each Peloton Put Option that was not open (i.e., not 
outstanding) on at least one of the Corrective Disclosure Dates as defined above. For all other 
Peloton Put Options sold (i.e., written) during the Settlement Class Period and open on at least one 
of the Corrective Disclosure Dates, the Recognized Loss per option shall be calculated as follows: 
I. 
For each Peloton put option that was subsequently purchased prior to May 5, 2021, the 
Recognized Loss is the purchase price minus the sale price. 
II. 
For each Peloton put option that was subsequently exercised (i.e., assigned) prior to 
May 5, 2021, the Recognized Loss is the intrinsic value of the Peloton 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 the common 
stock on the date of exercise. 
 
7 $82.62 is the closing price of the Common Stock on May 5, 2021.

Recognized Loss shall be $0.00.  
IV. 
For each Peloton put option that was still open as of May 5, 2021, the Recognized Loss 
is the intrinsic value of the Peloton put option as of the close of trading on May 5, 2021 
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 $82.62. 
 
No Recognized Loss shall be calculated based upon the sale or writing of any Peloton Put Option that 
had been previously purchased or acquired. 
Maximum Recovery for Options: Settlement proceeds available for Peloton Call Options 
purchased during the Settlement Class Period and Peloton Put Options written during the 
Settlement Class Period shall be limited to a total amount equal to 3.0% of the Net Settlement 
Fund.8 
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 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 a Peloton Security 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 a 
Peloton Security 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 a Peloton Security 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). 
Notwithstanding any of the above, receipt of a Peloton Security during the Settlement Class Period 
in exchange for securities of any other corporation or entity shall not be deemed a purchase or sale 
of a Peloton Security.  
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 Peloton Securities held as of the close of trading 
on September 10, 2020 (the last day before the Settlement Class Period begins) and then against 
the purchases of like Peloton Securities during the Settlement Class Period beginning with the 
earliest purchase during the Settlement Class Period.  
 
8 Peloton Call and Put Option trading accounted for less than 3.0% of total dollar trading volume 
for Peloton Securities during the Settlement Class Period. As such, claims for Peloton Call and 
Put Option transactions are allotted 3.0% of the Net Fund Settlement Fund pursuant to the Plan 
of Allocation.

21 
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 Peloton 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 Peloton 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 strike price of the option. Any Recognized Loss arising from purchases of 
Peloton Common Stock acquired during the Settlement Class Period through the exercise of an 
option on Peloton Common Stock9 shall be computed as provided for other purchases of Peloton 
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 Claims Administrator shall allocate to each Authorized Claimant a pro rata share of the Net 
Settlement Fund based on his, her, or its total Recognized Loss as compared to the total Recognized 
Losses of all Authorized Claimants. No distribution will be made to Authorized Claimants who 
would otherwise receive a distribution of less than $10.00.  
Settlement Class Members who do not submit an acceptable Proof of Claim and Release Form 
will not share in the Settlement proceeds. The Settlement and the Final Order and Judgment 
dismissing this Action with prejudice will nevertheless bind Settlement Class Members who do 
not submit a request for exclusion and/or submit an acceptable Proof of Claim and Release Form.  
Please contact the Claims Administrator or Lead Counsel if you disagree with any determinations 
made by the Claims Administrator regarding your Proof of Claim. If you are unsatisfied with the 
determinations, you may ask the Court, which retains jurisdiction over all 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 Parties will have no responsibility 
or liability whatsoever for the processing of Proof of Claim and Release Forms, the investment of 
the Settlement Fund, the distribution of the Net Settlement Fund, the Plan of Allocation, or the 
payment of any claim. Lead Plaintiff 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 Claims 
Administrator has made reasonable and diligent efforts to have 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 
 
9 Including (1) purchases of Peloton Common Stock as the result of the exercise of a call option, 
and (2) purchases of Peloton Common Stock by the seller of a put option as a result of the buyer 
of such put option exercising that put option.

22 
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 or the Claims 
Administrator 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.
