YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS AND OPTIONS IN THIS SETTLEMENT
Description Due Date

DO NOTHING

Get no payment. Remain a Class Member. Give up your rights.

REMAIN A CLASS MEMBER AND SUBMIT A CLAIM FORM POSTMARKED OR SUBMITTED ONLINE BY MAY 6, 2026

This is the only way to be potentially eligible to receive a payment. If you wish to obtain a payment as a member of the Class, you will need to file a Claim Form, received by May 6, 2026.

EXCLUDE YOURSELF FROM THE CLASS BY SUBMITTING A REQUEST FOR EXCLUSION THAT IS RECEIVED BY MARCH 26, 2026

Get no payment. This is the only option that potentially allows you to ever be part of any other lawsuit against the Defendants or any other Released Defendants Parties about the legal claims being resolved by this Settlement.


You cannot object to the proposed Settlement and cannot submit a Claim Form if you exclude yourself.

OBJECT TO THE SETTLEMENT SO THAT IT IS FILED OR RECEIVED BY MARCH 26, 2026

If you do not like the proposed Settlement, the proposed Plan of Allocation, or the request for attorneys’ fees and litigation expenses, you may write to the Court and explain why you do not like them. You cannot object to the Settlement, the Plan of Allocation or the fee and expense request unless you are a Class Member and do not exclude yourself from the Class. You do not need to submit a Claim Form to object. However, if you object, you must still submit a Claim Form to be potentially eligible to receive any money from the Net Settlement Fund. If you submit a written objection, you may (but do not have to) attend the hearing.

GO TO THE HEARING ON APRIL 23, 2026, AT 8:30 A.M., AND FILE A NOTICE OF INTENTION TO APPEAR SO THAT IT IS RECEIVED BY MARCH 26, 2026

Ask to speak in Court about the fairness of the Settlement, the proposed Plan of Allocation, or the request for attorneys’ fees and litigation expenses.

How Do I Know If I Am Affected By The Settlement?

All persons or entities who purchased or otherwise acquired Snap Inc. publicly traded securities or call options, or sold Snap Inc. put options, between February 5, 2021 and October 21, 2021, inclusive and were damaged thereby.

How Much Will My Payment Be?

Defendants have agreed to cause to be paid $65,000,000.00 in cash into escrow for the benefit of the Class. At this time, it is not possible to make any determination as to how much individual Class Members may receive from the Settlement.
