In May 2011, a Stipulation and Agreement of Settlement was filed with the Court. The Stipulation and Agreement of Settlement was given preliminary approval by the Court on May 9, 2011, and on May 10, 2011, the Court issued an order preliminarily approving the derivative settlement and providing for notice (the “Order”).
