WHAT IS THIS CLASS ACTION ABOUT?

In 2018, proposed class proceedings were commenced against the defendants Apple
Inc. and Apple Canada Inc. (together, “Apple”):

 i.   in the British Columbia Supreme Court styled as Crema v. Apple Inc. and
      Apple Canada Inc. (S-188008) and Strohmaier v. Apple Inc. and Apple Canada
      Inc. (S-186592);

 ii.  in the Ontario Superior Court of Justice styled as Gaudio v. Apple Inc.
      and Apple Canada Inc. (479/18CL), Collins Swartz v. Apple Inc. and Apple
      Canada Inc. (CV-18-591399), and Saleh v. Apple Inc. and Apple Canada Inc.
      (CV-18-592677-00CP);

 iii. in the Saskatchewan Court of King’s Bench styled as Blythman v. Apple Inc.
      and Apple Canada Inc. (QB6 302 OT 2018); and

 iv.  in the Alberta Court of King’s Bench styled as Hibanaura v. Apple Inc. and
      Apple Canada Inc. (1803 02688)
      
      (the "Proceedings").

The Proceedings relate to allegations of (i) performance mitigation features of
iOS operating software versions 10.2.1, 10.3, 11 and/or 11.2 for iPhones; (ii)
defects causing the iPhones to prematurely age, degrade and shut down
unexpectedly; (iii) defects in the performance of the iPhone batteries; and (iv)
misrepresentations or intentional concealment concerning the foregoing.

Apple has agreed to pay between $11,137,500 CAD and $14,427,500 CAD (the
“Settlement Funds”) in consideration of the full and final settlement of the
claims of Class Members, including but not limited to the Class Action and the
Proceedings (the “Settlement”). In return for the payment of the Settlement
Funds, the Settlement provides that the claims of all Class Members asserted or
which could have been asserted in the Class Action will be fully and finally
released and the Class Action will be dismissed.

The Settlement is not an admission of liability, wrongdoing, or fault on the
part of Apple, which denies the allegations against it.

The Settlement has been approved by the court on March 4, 2024.

The Claims Deadline has now passed. Claims can no longer be submitted.
