--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The lawsuit is about claims that merchants paid excessive fees to accept Visa
and Mastercard cards because Visa and Mastercard, individually, and together
with their respective member banks, violated the antitrust laws.

The settlement creates the following Rule 23(b)(3) Settlement Class: All
persons, businesses, and other entities that have accepted any Visa-Branded
Cards and/or Mastercard-Branded Cards in the United States at any time from
January 1, 2004 to January 25, 2019, except that the Rule 23(b)(3) Settlement
Class shall not include (a) the Dismissed Plaintiffs, (b) the United States
government, (c) the named Defendants in this Action or their directors,
officers, or members of their families, or (d) financial institutions that have
issued Visa-Branded Cards or Mastercard-Branded Cards or acquired Visa-Branded
Card transactions or Mastercard- Branded Card transactions at any time from
January 1, 2004 to January 25, 2019. The Dismissed Plaintiffs are plaintiffs
that previously settled and dismissed their own lawsuit against a Defendant, and
entities related to those plaintiffs. If you are uncertain about whether you may
be a Dismissed Plaintiff, you should call 1-800-625-6440 or view the list of
Dismissed Plaintiffs for more information.

The Notice has important information for merchants that accepted Visa and
Mastercard from January 1, 2004 through January 25, 2019. It explains the
settlement in a class action lawsuit. It also explains your rights and options
in this case. The court also issued a “Notice of Exclusion” to the Dismissed
Plaintiffs and an additional notice to those merchants explaining their right to
file claims.

For the full terms of the Settlement, you should look at the Superseding and
Amended Definitive Class Settlement Agreement of the Rule 23(b)(3) Class
Plaintiffs and the Defendants and its Appendices (the “Class Settlement
Agreement”), available here or by calling 1-800-625-6440. In the event of any
conflict between the terms of the Notice or this website and the Class
Settlement Agreement, the terms of the Class Settlement Agreement shall control.

Please check this website for any updates relating to the settlement or the
settlement approval process.
