What are the exceptions to being included?
You are not a Member of a Federal Class if you are a Defendant, a member of the immediate family of one of the Individual Defendants, a current or former director or officer of Defendants, or a legal representative, heir, successor, or assign of any excluded party, or if you timely met the requirements for opting out of a Federal Class. You are also excluded from the Federal Classes if you timely and validly requested exclusion, have arbitrated to final judgment any of the Released Claims, have previously settled any of the Released Claims, or the Settling Parties have agreed to allow you to be excluded from the Federal Classes. If you sold Schwab YieldPlus Fund shares between May 31, 2006, and March 17, 2008, that alone does not make you a Class Member. You are a Class Member only if you acquired Schwab YieldPlus Fund shares between May 31, 2006, and March 17, 2008 (including acquisitions through dividend reinvestments).
