Settlement Amount Class Action
----------------- ------------
$1,200,000,000 In Re: Volkswagen "Clean Diesel" Marketing,
Sales Practices, and Products Liability
Litigation, MDL No. 2672 (N.D. Cal.)
The litigation stemmed from Volkswagen's
deliberate use of a defeat device --
software designed to cheat emissions tests
and deceive federal and state regulators --
in nearly 600,000 Volkswagen-, Porsche-,
and Audi-branded turbocharged direct
injection ("TDI") diesel engine vehicles
sold in the United States. Litigation
quickly ensued, and those actions were
consolidated and assigned to the Court as a
multidistrict litigation ("MDL"). After
months of intensive negotiations and with
the assistance of a court-appointed
settlement master, Plaintiffs and
Defendants Volkswagen AG ("VWAG");
Volkswagen Group of America, Inc.
("VWGoA"); Audi AG; Porsche AG; and Porsche
Cars North America, Inc. ("PCNA") reached a
settlement that resolves consumer claims
concerning certain 3.0-liter diesel TDI
vehicles.
Final settlement approval granted on
May 17, 2017.

Settlement Amount Class Action
----------------- ------------
$670,700,000 IN RE: E.I. DU PONT DE NEMOURS AND COMPANY
C-8 PERSONAL INJURY LITIGATION, Case No.
2:13-md-2433 (S.D. Ohio).
The MDL consists of over 3,500 personal
injury or wrongful death actions arising
out of individuals' alleged ingestion of
drinking water contaminated with a
chemical, C-8 (also known as
perfluorooctoanoic acid (PFOA) or ammonium
perfluorooctanoate (APFO)), discharged from
DuPont's Washington Works Plant near
Parkersburg, West Virginia. The plaintiffs
allege that they suffer or suffered from
one or more of six diseases for which a
"Probable Link" to C-8 exposure finding was
made after a study conducted as part of a
2005 settlement between DuPont and a class
of approximately 80,000 persons who
consumed water from certain drinking water
sources, including six water districts
allegedly contaminated by C-8 from the
Washington Works Plant.
DuPont said "the settlement is not subject
to court approval."

$210,000,000 In re Salix Pharmaceuticals Ltd., Case No.
14 Civ. 8925 (KMW)(S.D.N.Y.)
The consolidated lawsuit alleges that the

misleading statements about Salix's
"wholesale inventory levels." As a result,
the price of Salix common stock was
artificially inflated. The shares declined
significantly when the truth was revealed.
The prices of Salix Options were also
distorted as the result of the artificially
inflated price of Salix common stock, and
that investors who purchased Salix Call
Options or sold Salix Put Options during
the Class Period were damaged when the
truth was revealed.
Final settlement approval granted on
July 28, 2017.
