Your failure to submit your Proof of Claim by August 8, 2018, will subject your claim to possible rejection and may preclude you from receiving any of the recovery in connection with the Settlement of this Action. If you are a member of the Settlement Class and do not request exclusion, you will be bound by the Settlement and any judgment and release entered in the Action, including, but not limited to, the Judgment, whether or not you submit a Proof of Claim.
