2 17. The remaining 35,593 claims were reviewed for total quantity of products claimed. Of the

3 61 claims with documentation submitted, 54 were found to be insufficient because the documents submitted

4 as “proof of purchase” were not relevant to the products claimed. However, seven showed sufficient

5 documentation for purchase quantities above ten products. Table 2 below summarizes the quantities claimed

6 and adjustments.

21 19. The deadline for Class Members to request exclusion from the Settlement was December 28,

22 2020. P&N has received eight requests for exclusion from the Settlement. Copies of the exclusion requests

23 are attached as Exhibit 6.

24 20. The deadline for Class Members to object to the Settlement was March 26, 2021. As of April

25 7, 2021, P&N has received no objections to the Settlement.

26 Notice and Administration Costs

27 21. P&N has incurred $215,003 in fees and costs completing the Notice Plan and administering

28 the Settlement, and anticipates total administrative costs and fees of approximately $251,934. Of the costs 4 Winters et al. v. Two Towns Ciderhouse Inc., No. 3:20-cv-00468-BAS-BGS DECLARATION OF BRANDON SCHWARTZ

1 incurred to date, $145,957 was incurred in connection with efforts to provide notice to the class. Per the

2 terms of the Settlement Agreement, Notice and Administration costs to the settlement will be $250,000.00.

3 Conclusion

4 22. In total, the Notice Plan as described in my declaration submitted to the Court on July 28,

5 2020 (ECF 21-2), delivered 31,027,664 impressions across all digital media platforms. The measurable

6 element of the Notice Plan, along with elements not able to be measured (e.g. Settlement Website, toll-free

7 hotline, CLRA, Radio Notice, & press release), resulted in a reach and frequency in excess of the originally

8 estimated 75% reach and 3.0 frequency.

9 23. It is my opinion that the Notice Plan described herein was implemented to achieve the best

10 practicable notice under the circumstances, has met the requirements of F.R.C.P 23, and satisfies due process

11 and the applicable rules governing class actions.

12 I declare under penalty of perjury that the foregoing is true and correct to the best of my knowledge

13 and belief.

14 Executed this 12 day of April 2021 in Portland, Oregon.

LOS ANGELES – This is an unfortu- nate time for people who despise LA and its sports teams, and it could be getting worse. Much worse. For starters, the Lakers on Oct. 11 won their first NBA title in a decade. As if that weren’t bad enough for folks who love to chant “Beat LA!” the Dodgers are headed to the World Series for the third time in four years. Now it’s starting to feel like 1988, when the Lakers won the NBA championship, the Dodgers won the World Se- ries title and Los Angeles became the envy of the sports world as the first and only city to have the NBA champions and World Series champions in the same calendar year. Get ready for more of the same, said Mychal Thompson, a member of the Lakers championship team in 1988 and an avowed Dodgers fan. “For the next three or four years, they could be going for double-doubles,” Thompson said. “In-N-Out (Burger) should sponsor these teams.” Even LA’s detractors have to ac- knowledge the facts, namely the Lakers have superstars in LeBron James and The Dodgers celebrated winning the NL pennant, their third in four years, Sunday night.

Continued from Page 1A gains on Election Day, Whitehouse’s threat could be front and center next year. After a procedural vote in the Sen- ate Sunday that set up a possible ﬁnal vote on her nomination for Monday, the high court could be back to nine members – six of them conservatives – as early as this week. Here’s what all the fuss is about:

Exhibit 5: Long Form Notice

Winters v. Two Towns Ciderhouse Inc., Case No. 3:20-cv-00468-BAS-BGS United States District Court for the Southern District of California

YOU MAY BE ENTITLED TO BENEFITS FROM A CLASS ACTION SETTLEMENT A federal court authorized this Notice. This is not a solicitation from a lawyer.

 A proposed settlement has been reached in Richard Winters, individually and on behalf of all others similarly situated, v. Two Towns Ciderhouse Inc., Case No. 3:20-cv-00468-BAS-BGS, pending in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of California (the “Court”).

 The Lawsuit alleges that 2 Towns Ciderhouse (“2 Towns” or “Defendant”) manufactured, marketed, advertised, and sold hard apple cider products that were advertised to contain “Nothing artificial: No concentrates or refined sugars; No essences or artificial flavors; No velcorin or sorbate” when in fact some of 2 Towns hard apple cider products use DL-Malic Acid, a synthetic version of Malic Acid found in fruit, and commonly used to adjust acidity in fruit juices. Defendant strongly denies any wrongdoing and does not believe it has any liability to the Class Representative or the Settlement Class. However, Defendant believes that it is in its best interest to settle the Class Action under the terms of the Settlement Agreement and obtain closure on these matters to avoid the uncertainty, expense, and diversion of business resources resulting from further litigation.

 You are a settlement class member if you purchased certain 2 Towns's hard apple cider products as a consumer in the United States between March 12, 2016 and October 11, 2020 and if your cider product was advertised as containing “Nothing Artificial: No concentrates or refined sugars; No essences or artificial flavors; No velcorin or sorbate.”

 Capitalized terms used in this Notice, other than those defined in this Notice, shall have the same meaning as set forth in the Settlement Agreement.

 Your Legal Rights Are Affected Even If You Do Not Act. Please Read This Notice Carefully.

3 BASIC INFORMATION

1. Why is there a Notice?

The purpose of this Notice is to inform potential class members about the proposed settlement of a class action lawsuit. This Notice explains:

o What the lawsuit and the settlement are about. o Who is a member of the Settlement Class. o Who represents the Settlement Class Members in the lawsuit. o What your legal rights and choices are. o How and by when you need to act.

2. What is a class action and who is involved?

In a class action lawsuit, one or more people, called “Named Plaintiffs” or “Class Representatives,” sue on behalf of people who the Named Plaintiff believes has similar claims. The people together are called the “Class” or “Class Members.” In this case, the Named Plaintiff and the company being sued, the Defendant, have reached a proposed settlement. A Court is considering whether to approve the settlement, so it has allowed, or “certified,” this case as a class action for settlement purposes only. All decisions that the Court makes concerning the settlement will affect everyone in the Settlement Class.

3. What lawsuit is involved in this settlement?

A class action was filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of California entitled Richard Winters v. Two Towns Ciderhouse Inc., Case No. 3:20-cv-00468-BAS-BGS (S.D. Cal.). This lawsuit is referred to as the “Class Action.”

4. What is this Class Action about?

The lawsuit claims 2 Towns manufactured, marketed, advertised and sold hard cider beverages that were advertised as containing “Nothing Artificial: No concentrates or refined sugars; No essences or artificial flavors; No velcorin or sorbate”, when in fact some of 2 Towns hard apple cider products use DL-Malic Acid—a synthetic version of Malic Acid found in fruit, and commonly used to adjust acidity in fruit juices. The lawsuit alleges that selling products with such false statements is deceptive and violates various false advertising laws. Defendant strongly denies any wrongdoing and denies that all of its products contained DL- Malic Acid or that DL-Malic Acid was added to any of its products as an artificial flavor, but has agreed to settle the Lawsuit in order to avoid the burden and cost of further litigation.

5. Why is there a Settlement?

The Court did not decide in favor of the Named Plaintiffs or Defendant. The Class Representatives and Class Counsel (listed below) believe that the claims asserted in the Class Action have merit, but believe that the settlement is in the best interests of the Settlement Class. Class Counsel has evaluated information made available in the course of the lawsuit and settlement negotiations and have taken into account the risks and uncertainties of proceeding with the Class Action. Those risks include the uncertainty of obtaining and maintaining class certification, prevailing on the merits, proving substantial damages at trial, and prevailing on post-trial motions and likely appeals. Based upon the consideration of these and other factors, including

4 the substantial time and expense of further litigation, Class Counsel believe that it is in the best interests of the Settlement Class to settle the Class Action on the terms described below.

Defendant strongly denies any wrongdoing and does not believe it has any liability to the Class Representative or the Settlement Class. However, Defendant believes that it is in its best interest to settle the Class Action under the terms of the Settlement Agreement and obtain closure on these matters to avoid the uncertainty, expense, and diversion of business resources resulting from further litigation.

The Parties engaged in settlement negotiations, participated in mediation before a professional mediator, and shared information pertaining to the claims asserted in the Class Action before reaching the settlement.

This Notice does not imply that any court has found or would have found that Defendant violated the law, that a class would have been certified, or that any member of the class would have recovered any amount of damages if the Class Action were not settled.

WHO IS IN THE SETTLEMENT?

6. Am I a Member of the Settlement Class?

You are a member of the Settlement Class if:

o You purchased the following 2 Towns Products as a consumer between March 12, 2016 and October 11, 2020: Bright Cider, Easy Squeezy, Pacific Pineapple, Made Marion, Ginja Ninja, or Outcider, Bad Apple, Cherried Away, Cot in the Act, Sun’s Out Saison, Nice & Naughty, Rhubarbarian, Pearadise, Prickly Pearadise, Serious Scrump, and Imperial Hop & Stalk.

o You are not a current or former employee, officer, director, agent, or legal representative of 2 Towns, or its affiliated entities.

THE TERMS OF THE PROPOSED SETTLEMENT

This Notice provides a summary of some, but not all, of the terms of the Settlement Agreement. Visit www.CiderSettlement.com to see a copy of the entire Settlement Agreement. The Settlement Agreement must be approved by the Court and become “Final” before any benefits are paid.

7. What benefits will I receive as a member of the Settlement Class?

The Defendant has agreed to establish a Settlement Fund of $985,000 to pay settlement class members who make valid, timely claims; pay Class Counsel’s attorneys’ fees of up to 25% of the Settlement Fund; pay Class Counsel’s actual costs up to $20,000; pay a service award to the Class Representatives Winters and Gruber up to $7,500 and $5,000, respectively; and pay costs and expenses of settlement administration.

After the Court grants final approval of the Settlement, each Settlement Class Member who submitted a Valid Claim Form as described above will receive a check in the mail, or through electronic payment, for an amount that shall be calculated pro rata based on the number of Valid Claim Forms that are submitted by the Settlement Class, and the distribution of products claimed by you and others. For more details on how weighted values are determined, please see visit www.CiderSettlement.com to see a copy of the entire Settlement Agreement.

8. Is there any money available now?

No. No money or benefits are available now because the Court has not yet decided whether to approve the settlement and because it is not yet final. There is no guarantee that money or benefits will ever be distributed.

YOUR RIGHTS AND OPTIONS

This Notice is being provided to you so that you can decide whether to participate in the settlement.

9. What happens if I do nothing? If you do nothing, you will become a Class Member bound by the terms of the Settlement Agreement and Final Judgment, thus forfeiting your right to sue on your own regarding any claims that are part of the settlement. However, your failure to timely submit a Valid Claim Form will forfeit your right to receive your portion of the Settlement Fund. All unclaimed Settlement Funds will then be given to The Public Justice Foundation.

10. If I remain in the Settlement Class, what claims do I give up?

If you remain in the Settlement Class, you give up your right to sue in court or arbitration or be part of any other lawsuit or arbitration against Defendant or its affiliates regarding any issues related to the Released Claims (please see the Settlement Agreement for the claims that will be released). Additionally, all of the Court’s orders will apply to you and legally bind you.

11. Why would I ask to be excluded?

You may want to exclude yourself from the Settlement Class if you already have filed (or intend to file) a lawsuit or arbitration against Defendant or its affiliates for the Released Claims and want to continue that lawsuit or arbitration individually, on your own behalf. If you do not exclude yourself, you will be legally bound by all orders of the Court regarding the Settlement Class, the Settlement Agreement, and the Released Claims. All Settlement Class Members who do not ask to be excluded will be forever barred from asserting against Defendant and its affiliates any and all actions, claims, causes of action, proceedings, or rights of any nature and description whatsoever regarding the Released Claims, as more fully described in the Settlement Agreement. Settlement Class Members who request exclusion shall not be entitled to recover any benefits from the settlement. Settlement Class Members who request exclusion will not receive a check in the mail, nor any other form of payment, after the settlement becomes Final.

12. How do I exclude myself from the Settlement Class?

You may exclude yourself (“opt out”) from the Settlement Class by submitting an Opt-Out Form available at the Settlement Website, www.CiderSettlement.com. You may submit this form electronically through the Settlement Website or you may print out the form and mail it to the Settlement Administrator. If you choose to mail your Opt-Out Form, please send it to the following address:

13. Can I object to the settlement?

Yes, but not if you exclude yourself from the Settlement Class.
