This is the only way to receive monetary compensation. |

| Object |
Tell the Court why you do not like the Settlement. |
| Go to the Hearing |
Ask to speak in Court about the Settlement. |
| Do Nothing |
Get no monetary compensation. Give up your right to be part of any other lawsuit about the Covered Products, other than claims for personal injury arising from the consumption of the Covered Products. |
The Court in charge of this case has given its preliminary approval to the Settlement but still has to decide whether to give final approval to the Settlement. Payments will be made if the Court gives final approval to the Settlement and after appeals, if any, are resolved. Please be patient.
