One of the class members objected to the Settlement and appealed the Court’s Order granting final approval of the Settlement. On April 17, 2009, the New Hampshire Supreme Court rejected the appeal and affirmed the Court’s Order granting final approval of the Settlement. As a result, the Claims Administrator will begin to distribute coupons no later than June 16, 2009.
