The parties to this class action lawsuit (the “Class Action”) have agreed on a proposed settlement (the “Settlement”), which the Court has preliminarily approved. The Settlement will provide for a payment to Class Members based on the number of shares of Symbria Inc. stock in their respective Symbria Inc. Employee Stock Ownership Plan (“ESOP”) as of the date of the October 31, 2015 ESOP transaction through December 31, 2024 (the “Class Period”).

The notice summarizes the Settlement and informs Class Members of their rights under the Settlement. The complete Settlement Agreement, and other information about this lawsuit, is available here or by contacting Class Counsel listed below.

The total Settlement Amount is $5.9 million. This amount will go to payments to Class Members, Settlement Administrative Expenses, payment of Class Counsel’s Attorneys’ Fees and Costs approved by the Court, payment of any approved Class Representative Award to the Plaintiff in the case, and potentially for fees and costs of an independent fiduciary.

Under the proposed Settlement, your estimated payment will be based on the proportion of the vested shares of Symbria stock you held in the Plan during the Class Period divided by the total number of vested shares held by all Class Members in the Plan during the Class Period.

• If you have an active ESOP account in the Symbria Inc. ESOP, the payment will be a cash allocation to be deposited into a money market fund in your ESOP account.


• If you do not have an active ESOP account, you may choose to receive your payment either by check or as a deposit into an individual retirement account or other eligible retirement plan by completing an Election Form online here.
