RICHARDSON, ET AL. V. IKEA NORTH AMERICA SERVICES, LLC, ET AL.



Richardson, et al. v. IKEA North America Services, LLC, et al.

Case No. 2021CH05392


IF YOU MADE A PURCHASE AT AN IKEA RETAIL LOCATION USING A CREDIT CARD OR DEBIT
CARD BETWEEN OCTOBER 18, 2017 AND DECEMBER 31, 2019, YOU MAY BE ENTITLED TO
BENEFITS UNDER A CLASS ACTION SETTLEMENT.

A Court authorized this Notice. This is not a solicitation from a lawyer.

Plaintiffs allege IKEA North America Services, LLC and IKEA U.S. Retail, LLC
(collectively “IKEA”) printed receipts for credit or debit card transactions at
its retail locations that included more than the last 5 digits of the debit or
credit card number in violation of the Fair and Accurate Credit Transactions
Act, 15 U.S.C. § 1681c(g)(1) et seq. (“FACTA”). IKEA denies Plaintiffs’
allegations and denies any wrongdoing whatsoever. The Court has not ruled on the
merits of Plaintiffs’ claims or the defenses of IKEA. By entering into the
Settlement, IKEA has not conceded the truth or validity of any of the claims
against it.

IKEA has agreed to pay $24,250,000 (the “Settlement Fund”) in full and final
settlement and release of the claims of the Settlement Class defined as persons
who between October 18, 2017 and December 31, 2019 engaged in one or more
transactions using a debit card or credit card at any IKEA retail location
within the United States, and was thereupon provided an electronically printed
receipt displaying the first six (6) and the last four (4) digits of the credit
or debit card number used in connection with such transaction(s).

The Settlement Fund will be used to pay all amounts related to the Settlement,
including payments to each Settlement Class Member who submits a valid and
timely claim form to receive payment (“Claim Form”), attorneys’ fees and
reasonable expenses, and the costs of notice and administering the Settlement.
Class Counsel anticipate that they will petition the Court for attorneys’ fees
in the amount of $9,700,000.00 (which is 40% of the Settlement Fund), plus Class
Counsel’s reasonable expenses, and will also petition for an Incentive Payment
of $10,000.00 each to Plaintiffs. Settlement Class Members who timely submit a
valid Claim Form will receive a pro rata payment distribution, calculated by
dividing the available funds for distribution to the Settlement Class by the
number of persons who submit valid Claim Forms.

Your rights and options, and the deadlines to exercise them, are explained in
the Notice. Your legal rights are affected whether you act or don’t act. Read
the Notice carefully.

The Court in charge of this case still has to decide whether to approve the
Settlement. Payments will be made if the Court approves the Settlement and after
any appeals are resolved. Please be patient.
