Of the Postcard Notices, the U.S. Postal Service returned 259,021 23 postcards to Heffler as undeliverable as addressed and provided new mailing 24 addresses for 4,922 class Notices. The addresses were updated and 4,922 25 postcard Notices were promptly re-mailed by Heffler. 26 27 28 21.

However, it is assumed that there was some number of 2 Settlement Class Members who received both an email and postcard notice, 3 such that the total number of Settlement Class Members who received Notice 4 is less than the combined sum of those two numbers. 5 6 7 8 22. On February 24, 2016, Heffler established the toll-free number 1-855- 731-7497 for class members to obtain additional information regarding the Settlement.

All of the documents referenced in 4 this paragraph are available for downloading by anyone visiting the website. 5 6 7 8 25. Additionally, the website includes a list of deadlines (set in the Court’ Preliminary Approval Order) to submit Claim Forms (June 30, 2016) and request exclusion (June 30, 2016) and to make objections (June 30, 2016). This list also includes the date and time of the final approval hearing, 9 currently set for August 25 2015, 10:00 a.m. The website also includes a 10 11 12 13 14 section of Frequently Asked Questions (“FAQs”).

The website allows Settlement Class Members to print claim forms, submit claim forms by Claimants who chose to receive Store Credits instead 15 of cash, upload proof of additional qualifying purchases and submit Opt-Out 16 Requests. 17 27. 18 the execution of this declaration, there were 363,946 visits to the website. 19 28. 20 the administration of the Settlement. These reports included, among other 21 things, the number of Class Notices emailed, mailed or re-mailed; the number 22 of Claim Forms submitted; the status of requests for exclusions and objections 23 received by Heffler. 24 29. 25 needed to be received online, sent by fax, or mailed with a postmark to Heffler 26 27 28 The website is able to count the number of visits to the website. As of Heffler regularly provided counsel for the parties with status reports on Under the Settlement Agreement, in order to be timely, Claim Forms on or before June 30th, 2016. As of the execution of this declaration, Heffler Case 8:12-cv-00215-FMO-KES Document 268-5 Filed 07/28/16 Page 9 of 10 Page ID #:9075 1 received 60,985 timely paper Claims,1 and 98,037 electronic claims, for a total 2 of 159,022 Claims. Of these, 102,502 Claimants have requested a Store 3 Credit, 56,089 Claimants have requested a cash payment, and 431 continue to 4 be processed. 5 30. 6 At this time, Heffler is still in the process of reviewing the claims and is unable to calculate the specific dollar amount that each individual Claimant 7 will receive if the Settlement is approved by the Court. It will take significant 8 time to complete the claims verification process and assign points based on 9 the point-based allocation plan. Moreover, it will take time to process 10 documents submitted by Settlement Class Members seeking to demonstrate 11 additional purchases. To date, 597 Class Members have submitted documents 12 demonstrating additional purchases. Heffler has reviewed, and will continue 13 to review the submissions for validity as they are processed. 14 Assuming the Court awards the full amount of requested attorneys’ fees 15 31. 16 ($13,500,000), costs reimbursement ($191,080.91), Plaintiff enhancement 17 payment ($10,000) and administrative fees ($2,667,000), the balance of the 18 $50,000,000 settlement fund to be distributed to Claimants would be 19 $33,631,919.09. As of the date of this declaration, 158,787 Claimants will 20 share in the net settlement, so the average payout to each Claimant would be 21 $211.81, although the actual amount that each Claimant will receive will vary 22 depending on the total number of valid claims and the number of points 23 assigned based on the allocation plan provided in the Settlement Agreement. 24 32. 25 from the settlement website and 198 mailed exclusion requests. After 26 27 28 1 As of the date of declaration Heffler has received 620 exclusion requests Due to delays with the U.S. postal service, Heffler continues to receive claim forms that are postmarked by the claim deadline of June 30, 2016. Case 8:12-cv-00215-FMO-KES Document 268-5 Filed 07/28/16 Page 10 of 10 Page ID #:9076 reviewing the exclusion requests we determined that 4 of the requests were 2 submitted after the exclusion deadline. The deadline for exclusion requests 3 was June 30, 2016. Additionally, after reviewing for duplicates we determined 4 that there were 6 duplicate exclusion requests. In total there are 809 timely 5 unique exclusion requests. A detailed list of the class members requesting 6 exclusion is attached as Exhibit J. 7 33 . 8 As of the date of this declaration, Heffler has received seven (7) total objections, six (6) of which were submitted by class members who were 9 included in the data provided by the Defendant. The deadline for such 10 11 12 13 objections was June 30, 2016. 34. As of the date of this declaration, Heffler has incurred administrative costs and fees of $2,425,267 .68, which is just below the $2,425,274 that we 14 estimated for all costs of notice and administration. However, we anticipate 15 that we will incur an additional $374,732.32 in costs and fees for future work 16 associated with this Settlement. Heffler therefore anticipates that the total 17 amount of administration costs and fees for this matter will be $2,800,000, 18 which is more than the $2,667 ,000 "cap" negotiated by the parties. The main 19 causes of the additional costs include: The undeliverable mail count is 3 times 20 higher than the original estimate therefore the address updating and notice 21 remailing costs have increased, and the paper claim forms are approaching 9 22 times higher than anticipated. 23 35. 24 Executed July Z]; 2016, in Edmond, Oklahoma. 25 26 27 28 I declare under penalty of perjury that the foregoing is true and correct.

ESCOGE EL DVR MÁS CONVENIENTE PARA TI: DVR OPTIMIZADO DVR GRABA 2 PROGRAMAS A LA VEZ GRABA 6 PROGRAMAS A LA VEZ “REMESAS” VIENE de pagina 3A Según datos del Banco Central de México, la remesas recibidas desde el exterior sumaron en febrero pasado 2.093 millones de dólares, "el monto más alto para un segundo mes del año desde 1995", y el 13,6 % más que el mismo mes del año anterior. Las remesas, que proceden principalmente de los emigrantes mexicanos en Estados Unidos, son la principal fuente de divisas en México después del petróleo y constituyen un importante ingreso para millones de personas. Para Cristóbal Alex, presidente de Latino Victory Fund, cuya vocación es involucrar a electores y donantes latinos para que apoyen a líderes de la comunidad, la propuesta de Trump es "muy peligrosa y nada realista". "Esto no es más que otro ataque contra los inmigrantes que tendría consecuencias devastadoras para los latinos y los estadounidenses en general, poniendo en peligro nuestra economía, nuestra democracia y nuestra política exterior y de seguridad", señaló en un comunicado. Alex recordó que México es el tercer mayor socio comercial de EE.UU, así como un país "aliado y amigo", por lo que este plan "refuerza aún más el hecho de que una Presidencia de Donald Trump sería devastador para Estados Unidos". El director ejecutivo del grupo antiinmigrante NumbersUSA, Roy Beck, señaló por su parte en declaraciones enviadas a Efe que el muro sería "una herramienta de especial importancia en la lucha contra el terrorismo y el crimen organizado", pero apenas serviría para "combatir el número de extranjeros ilegales". De acuerdo con Beck, la programa EVerify, que obliga a los empleadores a comprobar la información de sus empleados con una base de datos federal, sería más efectiva en este caso. En lo que muchos coinciden es en que la participación de Trump en la contienda política para la Presidencia ha supuesto un revulsivo del activismo político.

Other the other hand, those low-wage workers are most likely to put the additional income right back into the economy. “It’s a big mixed bag,” he said. The center’s analysis of the impact in the Northern California Megaregion — the Bay Area, Sacramento and northern San Joaquín Valley combined — found agriculture, restaurants and retail would be the most affected industries, while the least affected are utilities, information and finance. More than 90 percent of farmworkers, cooks and restaurant servers have current wages that would be impacted. Of workers in personal care and service, cleaning and maintenance service occupations, more than two-thirds have wages that would also be affected. The increase will be a burden for the hospitality industry, said Wes Rhea, chief executive of Visit Stockton Bumping the minimum wage $5 an hour, he said, “That’s a 50 percent increase in everything. That is going to be a large burden.” But ultimately, that wage cost will be borne by the customers. “Either the company takes less profit or they have to pass it along to the consumer,” Rhea said. HÉCTOR AMEZCUA [email protected] Joe Del Bosque of Firebaugh, in a 2015 photo, is concerned about the new minimum wage and its impact on farmworkers. He expects tougher competition from states with lower minimum pay. Farmers, however, don’t have that luxury, said Bruce Blodgett, executive manager, San Joaquín Farm Bureau Federation. “We’re competing in a world marketplace. We’re competing with other states and other countries, for that matter,” he said Monday. Blodgett said farmers will respond in several ways, by increasing automation or switching to crops that require less labor. “You’re going to see those that can are going to mechanize every way they can mechanize. Commodities that continue to be labor-dependent are going to be replaced,” he said. Or agriculture may simply shift to other states and countries. “Where does the insanity end?” Blodgett said. “Why not $20 an hour; why not $30?” During the annual César E. Chávez Garlanding Ceremony and Celebration at California State University, Fresno on March 30, Paul F. Chávez, son of Chávez and current president and chairman of the César Chávez Foundation, said farm workers in the Valley would benefit from the statewide minimum increase to $15 an hour by 2022. “It’s going to help farm workers tremendously because you have too many employers that still pays just minimum wage to workers. And so what it will do is raise the wage level for all farm workers,” he said.

Because apart from issues about income equality, there are also issues of job security, and protection from pesticides poisoning. So we welcomed the increase, but also we know the best way to provide for farm workers and their families is to have a strong union that can provide strong benefits and contracts for them.” When asked if he was concern about farmworkers losing their jobs because farmers might switch to crops that required less labor or increase machinery use, Chávez said he was not worried that that would happen. “Employers have always cried about the cost of labor. Yet, you know, they continue to live in big houses, and drive fancy cars. It’s about time that farm workers be given some benefits and one of the things we all need is a decent wage to raise our families and to do what is needed in this society,” Chávez said. “So no I am not concern about that. There are other issues that worried me: the use of dangerous pesticides, and there is also some big international trade issues that affecting us, but I think that when you look at its merit, farm workers deserve a wage increase.” Pacific’s study found wage impacts will vary by geography. In counties with a heavy dependence on agriculture and tourism, about half of current jobs have wages that would be affected by the legislation. In San Francisco and the Silicon Valley 25-30 percent of workers will be affected. For the 21county megaregion overall, about 37 percent of existing jobs could see their wages affected. Younger workers might see the biggest changes, as 77 percent of jobs held by those under the age of 25 would be affected by a minimum wage increase. That’s about three times the share of jobs held by those over 35. Fresno State student Miguel Cuevas, 24, works two jobs: at one of his jobs he earns $15 an hour and at his second job he makes $10 an hour. Cuevas said while the wage increase would help people make ends meet, he is concern that the price of goods would increase at the end as business owners might pass on the cost of labor to customers. He is also concern that workers’ hours would be cut as some employers now would have to pay more in wages. Also nearly 57 percent of Latino workers would be affected, compared to 26 percent of white workers, the researchers said. FROM PAGE 1A LIP SYNC uled to begin at 7 p.m. in the Clovis West High School gym. The contest pits principals against each other in lip syncing Spanish-language songs – and often mixing in choreography and props developed by students – in an effort to win scholarship funds. Schools that will be participating are Clovis West, Clovis East, Fresno, Sunnyside, Fowler, and Tracy. This year, the contest will be broken into a large school and small school division. There will be no preliminary rounds. “Each competing school will each receive $1,000 and we are going to give a first, second and third place prize,” López said. First place will earn $2,500; second place $2,000; and third place $1,5000. Started in 1987 by Mike Sturtevant of the Modesto Rotary Club, the High School Principals Spanish Lip Sync contest was taken over by El Concilio in 2007. Over the years, the event has raised more than $800,000 in scholarship money. Teams of dozens of students – up to 60 students are allowed from each school this year (small school entries can have five to 25 students) – practice for months in advance to get their lip sync routine down. The principals and administrators lip sync to Spanishlanguage music in front of a life audience. Judging is based on the lip syncing, choreography and overall showmanship. Lip sync coordinator Leticia Valencia is excited that the competition has been revived, especially since she has fond memories of it. As a 2002 Clovis West graduate, Valencia participated in the lip sync competition three years in a row: 2000, 2001, 2002. JUAN ESPARZA LOERA [email protected] Clovis West High and principal Ben Drati won first place in the 2011 High School Principals Lip Sync contest. “Of all the memories from high school, one of the top moments for me was lips sync, especially my senior year when we first won regional for Clovis West,” she said. “People dancing and singing, it really does take a lot to come out of your comfort zone and you really do connect with your fellow students and principal, so it’s really great to see the competition come back. “The relationships we build make it a great experience.” But even better, she said, is the scholarship money students receive. “We give those students ambitions to succeed and keep going with their education — we give them resources,” said Valencia, who today is the Athletics Secretary at Clovis East. The lip sync contest was started in 1987 by Mike Sturtevant of the Modesto Rotary Club. In 2007, El Concilio took over the contest. The contest has raised more than $800,000 in scholarship money. El Concilio called off the contest in 2011 due to lack of funds. The event coordinator said the nonprofit organization could not raise the estimated $30,000 to $35,000 needed to hold the contest after sponsors dropped out. In 2011, 24 teams participated in the three regionals, with the finals hosted at California State University, Stanislaus, in Turlock. Westside Ministries of Turlock organized the contest in 2012 and 2013, and lost about $7,000 the first year, but organizers remained optimistic because of the bond it established between principals, administrators and the students. Organizers held the contest under the name of the Talent Exhibition Principals Lip Sync. As for Saturday’s competition, we asked Valencia who she was rooting for, her alma matter Clovis West or her current employer Clovis East. “My heart is divided!” she said. “I will always have that connection to Clovis West, but I hope to see my Timberwolves (Clovis East) come all the way. Overall it’s going to be a fun might, even though I’m truly divided.” Case 8:12-cv-00215-FMO-KES Document 268-8 Filed 07/28/16 Page 4 of 8 Page ID #:9105 5A News WEEK OF APRIL 6 2016 VIDAENELVALLE.COM **** VALLEY Fresno State remembers iconic leader César E.

The 9-foot-high bronze sculpture of Chávez was installed March 31, 1996, and sits as the east anchor to the four monuments now standing in the Peace Garden. The César Chávez Day, which is a state holiday, is celebrated on the UFW founder’s birthday on March 31. The university, as well as other state agencies, was closed Thursday in observance of the holiday. Chávez visited Fresno State’s campus in 1975 and died peacefully in his sleep on April 23, 1993 near Yuma, Arizona at age 66. Wednesday’s ceremony was part of a three-day celebration in honor of Chávez. The three-day event kicked-off with a blood drive on March 28 where donors received a commemorative Chávez t-shirt, as well as the screening of two documentaries about farm workers including “César’s Last Fast” followed by panel discussions and a photo display at the Henry Madden Library that documents the 50 years since the farm worker union’s famous grape strike in the fall of 1965 and the ensuing national grape boycott in their quest to gain contracts with better pay and improved working conditions. Paul F. Chávez , son of Chávez who is now president and chairman of the César Chávez Foundation and Dr. Alex S. Fabros Jr., a Filipino community activist and historian who was involved in farm worker labor strikes in the 1960s pre-dating the UFW spoke at last week ceremony. Paul Chávez said his father’s movement went well beyond the fields, gave hope to people and inspired a nation. “This year we celebrate the 23 anniversary of my father’s passing, and the annual commemorations across the 11 states that have name his birthday as state holiday and countless cities and communities that name streets, parks and libraries other public buildings after him,” Paul Chávez said adding that President Obama during his visit to La Paz said that it was important that the story of his father and the farm worker movement no be a story of Latino history, but more importantly a part of American history because of the work and contributions he made. At the ceremony, Fabros talked about the role of Filipinos in the farm workers labor movement historically and leaders like Itliong, who organized a group of 1,500 Filipinos to strike against the grape growers of Delano in 1965 and uniting Filipinos, Chicanos and other ethnic workers.

SHUTTERSTOCK de pedirle información adicional y, si califica, los niños inscritos podrían recibir su tarjeta en 45 días. El Medi-Cal es la versión estatal del Medicaid, el programa de salud federal para personas de bajos ingresos, creado en 1965. La expansión o ampliación del Medi-Cal permitirá que unos 170,000 niños indocumentados que viven en California tengan acceso a la salud preventiva. Actualmente, el Medi-Cal cubre al 30% de la población del estado, unas 11 millones de personas. Los niños que están registrados en el Programa de Kaiser, podrán registrarse en el Medi-Cal, pero esto es opcional. “Lo importante es que tengan acceso a la salud preventiva”, insiste Wright. Aún no hay cifras de la cantidad de personas que se han registrado en los últimos meses, pero se estima que es alta. Muchas escuelas están haciendo esfuerzos para informar a los padres de este cambio, al igual que algunas organizaciones no lucrati- vas, que buscan llegar a la comunidad inmigrante con esta información. “Aparte del beneficio individual, de cada niño que podrá tener un médico, medicinas y tratamientos disponibles, esto beneficiará al conjunto de la sociedad”, afirma Wright. Pero aún queda mucho por hacer, especialmente en las comunidades rurales aisladas donde la información es limitada. “No creo que sea posible que el 100% de los niños se inscriban en el Medi-Cal Ampliado este año”, asegura Wright. “Sería ideal, pero seguramente se necesitará un poco más de tiempo”. . Estudio afirma que carbohidratos pueden causa cáncer al pulmón Primera Hora SANTIAGO DE CHILE El estudio más amplio realizado en torno a la correlación de padecer cáncer pulmonar por consumo excesivo de alimentos blancos –como el arroz, las pastas o cualquier tipo de masa alta en carbohidratos–, arrojó que existe una posibilidad de casi un 50% de padecer la enfermedad y se incluye en este factor de riesgo a los no fumadores. El índice glicémico mide la calidad de una dieta basada en carbohidratos y cómo éstos aumentan los niveles de azúcar en la sangre. La teoría es que una dieta basada en estos alimentos, dispara los niveles de glucosa e insulina y para sostener esta hipótesis, se habla del factor de crecimiento insulínico (IGFs), que estaría previamente asociado al riesgo de cáncer de pulmón. La doctora Stephanie Melkonian de la Universi- Los carbohidratos estudiados fueron el arroz, las patatas y las pastas, entre otros. SHUTTERSTOCK dad de Texas, especializada en el tratamiento contra este tipo de cáncer, sostuvo que “se observó casi un 50% de prevalencia de cáncer de pulmón en aquellos sujetos que tenían una dieta alta en carbohidratos comparándolos con aquellos que llevaban una alimentación baja de éstos”. El cáncer de pulmón es el segundo más común en su tipo entre hombres y mujeres de EEUU, según datos entregados por la Asociación Americana contra el Cáncer. El Reino Unido también presenta cifras alarmantes con más de 45 mil diagnósticos por año, donde el 70% pierde la vida por el cáncer asociado principalmente al consumo de tabaco. La investigación pretende modificar los hábitos de aquellos que, sin consumir cigarrillos, pueden padecer la enfermedad por una alimentación poco saludable. “Los resultados indican que una persona puede evitar padecer la enfermedad si se mantiene activa, con una alimentación sana y prescinde de estos alimentos”, señaló el doctor Xifeng Wu, también a cargo del proyecto. El riesgo disminuiría si se cambian hábitos alimenticios y se reemplazaran dichos alimentos por papas, arroz integral u otros granos que no aumenten los niveles de azúcar en la sangre.l Case 8:12-cv-00215-FMO-KES Document 268-8 Filed 07/28/16 Page 6 of 8 Page ID #:9107 Publication Date: 04/08/2016 HOYLOSANGELES.COM/NO SE LO PIERDA Salsa con Montañez E M A D N É AG y ‘El Canario’ Y O H E D DES Cuándo: 9 de abril, 8 p.m. De qué se trata: Andy Montañez y José Alberto ‘El Canario’, dos grandes de la salsa, harán sacar chispas a sus seguidores con sus éxitos.

Analistas políticos lo descartaron en el momento en que llamó a los mexicanos violadores y traficantes. Dijeron que su candidatura moriría luego de llamar a quien fue un héroe de guerra, John McCain, un perdedor por dejarse atrapar por el enemigo. Juraron que caería después de burlarse de un reportero con discapacidades, o después de proponer vetar la en- trada de musulmanes a Estados Unidos. Ha habido tantas instancias en que las palabras que dijo hubieran arruinado la candidatura de cualquier otro político, sin embargo, Trump continúa subiendo las encuestas y sigue ganando estados. Por mi parte, me he mantenido lejos de hacer predicciones, pero hoy estoy dispuesto a hacer una: el comienzo del fin ya comenzó para Trump. Aquí presento dos razones. 1) Los líderes republicanos no lo permitirán, y ya empezaron a moverse. Hay que recordar que el ascenso de Trump se debe a los votos de una pequeña parte del electo- rado republicano que no refleja los valores y sentimientos del resto del país. La candidatura de Trump depende de esos votos, pero también de un proceso complejo y hasta cierto punto oculto en que los candidatos acumulan cierto número de delegados que los representan durante la convención en julio. Esos delegados son personas con lazos profundos al partido, que pueden cambiar de opinión y votar por otro candidato a pesar de estar supuestamente dellado de Trump. El sistema de elección de los republicanos es extremadamente complejo y descentralizado, lo cual se presta a CONSULADO GENERAL DEL PERÚ EN LOS ANGELES “ESTE 10 DE ABRIL A VOTAR POR EL PERU” COMUNICADO El Domingo 10 de abril de 2016, se llevarán a cabo las Elecciones Generales para elegir al Presidente de la República, miembros del Congreso y del Parlamento Andino en las que deben participar también los ciudadanos peruanos residentes en el extranjero.

Este último comentario logró unir por primera vez fuerzas pro y antiaborto, quienes condenaron contundentemente al magnate, tanto, que hasta tuvo que retractarse. Pero incluso antes de esos comentarios, hay una encuesta clave que habla mucho sobre la vialidad de su candidatura: 7 de cada 10 mujeres tienen una opinión desfavorable de Trump. Cabe mencionar que las mujeres constituyen la mayoría de las personas que votan en las elecciones. Además de retractarse de esos comentarios, Trump también se vio obligado a reconocer que se equivocó en los ataques personales a la esposa de Ted Cruz. Estas son cosas mundanas de una campaña política, pero lo importante aquí es el precedente: Trump no pide disculpas, Los Angeles: Robert F. Kennedy – Community Schools, 701 S.

Trump jamás será presidente, de eso estoy seguro. De aquí a la convención pueden pasar muchas cosas locas todavía, inclusive una candidatura independiente de Trump una vez que se dé cuenta que ha perdido la guerra oculta de delegados. El partido Republicano se encargará de destruir el Frankenstein que ellos mismos crearon, aunque les cueste la Casa Blanca en noviembre.

Box 0509 Philadelphia, PA 19105-0509 You will have no right to object to the Settlement if you exclude yourself from the Settlement Class. Case 8:12-cv-00215-FMO-KES Document 268-14 Filed 07/28/16 Page 5 of 8 Page ID #:9141 10. What am I giving up to get a payment or stay in the Settlement Class? Unless you exclude yourself from the Settlement Class, you can’t separately sue JCPenney for the claims and issues in this case. You also will be bound by any decisions by the Court relating to the Settlement. The “Release of Claims” is described more fully in the Settlement Agreement, which can be downloaded [HERE], and describes the legal claims that you give up if you get benefits from the Settlement. 11. When and where will the Court decide whether to approve the Settlement? To The Court will hold a Fairness Hearing at 10:00 a.m. on August 25, 2016, at the United States District Court for the Central District of California, located at 312 North Spring Street, Los Angeles, California, in Courtroom 22 on the 5th Floor. The hearing may be moved to a different date, time or location without additional notice, so it is a good idea to check this website. At this hearing, the Court will consider whether the Settlement is fair, reasonable and adequate. The Court will also consider how much to pay Class Counsel and the Class Representative. If there are objections, the Court will consider them at this time. After the hearing, the Court will decide whether to approve the Settlement. We do not know how long these decisions will take 12. Do I have to come to the hearing? No. Class Counsel will answer any questions the Court may have. But, you are welcome to come at your own expense. If you send an objection or comment, you don’t have to come to Court to talk about it. As long as you mailed your written objection on time, the Court will consider it. You may also pay another lawyer to attend, but it’s not required. 13. May I speak at the hearing? Yes. You may ask the Court for permission to speak at the Fairness Hearing. To do so, you must send a letter saying that it is your “Notice of Intent to Appear.” In your letter you must include the following: • • • • • Your name, address, and telephone number, The name and number of the case (Spann v. JCPenney, Case No. 12-cv-0215FMO), The name, address, and telephone number of any attorney(s) who will be appearing on your behalf at the Fairness Hearing, A brief statement detailing what you will be presenting to the Court, and Your signature. You must mail your Notice of Intention to Appear which must be postmarked no later than June 30, 2016, to: Spann v. JCPenney c/o Heffler Claims Group P.O. Box 0509 Case 8:12-cv-00215-FMO-KES Document 268-14 Filed 07/28/16 Page 6 of 8 Page ID #:9142 Philadelphia, PA 19105-0509 14. Do I have a lawyer in this case? Yes. Plaintiff was represented by three law firms, and the Court has appointed two of those firms as “Class Counsel” to represent you and all Class Members: Matthew J. Zevin of the Stanley Law Group and Derek J. Emge of The Emge Firm, LLP. You will not be charged for these lawyers. If you want to be represented by your own lawyer, you may hire one at your own expense. 15. How will the lawyers be paid? The Court will decide how much the attorneys will be paid. Class Counsel have asked the Court to award a total of $13,500,000, (27% of the Settlement Fund), plus their out-of-pocket costs and expenses of $191,080.91, all of which will be paid out of the cash part of the Settlement. In addition, they have requested an Enhancement Award of $10,000 for the Class Representative. Class Counsel’s motion for Attorneys’ Fees and Costs is available for viewing on this website. 16.
