GENERAL OVERVIEW

The Court has preliminarily approved a proposed Settlement (the "Settlement") of a class action lawsuit brought on behalf of all persons who, between February 17, 1999 and December 31, 2005, purchased within the United States an AT&T PrePaid Phone Card that had an international conversion chart and no arbitration clause, and who thereafter made at least one completed call to one of the 10 countries listed on the international conversion chart. The parties have agreed to the Settlement in order to settle the claims asserted in the Action. In this Action, the plaintiff alleged claims for breach of contract and violation of the New Jersey Consumer Fraud Act and contended that certain AT&T PrePaid Phone Cards contained an international conversion chart which misrepresented the number of minutes the Class Members would be charged for calls to certain foreign countries. Defendants deny any liability or wrongdoing whatsoever with respect to the allegations contained in the Complaint in the Action, and enter into the Stipulation solely to avoid the further expense, inconvenience, and burden of protracted and costly litigation.

A hearing will be held on May 28, 2010, at 1:30 p.m., before the Honorable Fred H. Kumpf, at the Somerset County Justice Complex, 20 North Bridge Street, Somerville, New Jersey, for the purpose of determining (a) whether the proposed settlement is fair, adequate and reasonable to the Class and whether the final judgment and approval should be entered by the Court; (b) whether the application of Class counsel for an award of attorneys’ fees and for reimbursement of expenses incurred in connection with this litigation should be approved; and (c) whether the application of Plaintiff as the Class Representative for an incentive award in connection with this litigation should be approved.
