As detailed herein, Plaintiffs and the Class suffered diminished market value and other damages related to the Non-compliant Vehicles purchased or leased by Plaintiffs and the Classes (defined infra) as a direct result of Volkswagen omitting material information and issuing misleading statements about the emission standards of those vehicles. As disclosed in letters by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) and Air Resource Board of the California Environmental Protection Agency (“Cal EPA”), dated September 18, 2015,2 Volkswagen sold the Non-compliant Vehicles with a “defeat device” system to falsely indicate compliance with federal and California environmental laws when undergoing emission testing. In reality, the “defeat device” caused the Non-compliant Vehicles to emit, in some cases, up to 40 times the EPA allowable emission of nitrogen oxides (“NOx”). See Exhibit A at 3-4. 3. NOx is a highly toxic emission. In a 1997 report entitled Nitrogen Oxides: Impacts on Public Health and the Environment, the EPA characterizes nitrogen oxides as some of the most dangerous and harmful pollutants to human health and the natural environment.3 The report describes how, inter alia, NOx pollutants make their way into the drinking water creating a health hazard for infants and how even short-term exposure to NOx pollutants is associated with a variety of acute and chronic health effects, especially in children.

As part of its mission to reduce fatalities and injuries, since model year 2001 NHTSA has included rollover information as part of its NCAP ratings. One of the primary means of assessing rollover risk is the static stability factor (SSF), a measurement of a vehicle’s resistance to rollover. The higher the SSF, the lower the rollover risk.

These statements may be spoken or written and can be recognized by terms such as “expects”, “anticipates”, “intends”, “plans”, “believes”, “seeks”, “estimates”, “will” or words with similar meaning.

The estimates given involve a degree of risk, and the actual developments may differ from those forecast. Consequently, any unexpected fall in demand or economic stagnation in our key sales markets, such as in Western Europe (and especially Germany) or in the USA, Brazil or China, will have a corresponding impact on the development of our business.

If any of these or other risks occur, or if the assumptions underlying any of these statements prove incorrect, the actual results may significantly differ from those expressed or implied by such statements.
