display between 1999 and 2006, you could be eligible for damages under a
collective $538 million class action settlement with Samsung, Sharp, Hitachi
, Epson, Chimei, Chungwa and HannStar.
This class action lawsuit settlement only covers consumers who purchased
INDIRECTLY from these companies. "Indirectly" means that you purchased a TFT
-LCD panel in a television, monitor or notebook computer from someone other
than the manufacturer of that panel. If you purchased DIRECTLY from the
manufactures, a separate class action lawsuit settlement affects you. Go to
www.TFTLCDclassactio n.com:
http://www.TFTLCDclassaction.com
for information on the LCD Direct Purchasers Class Action Settlement, which
we explain in detail here.
The "indirect" LCD panel class action settlement will resolve a class action
lawsuit alleging the LCD manufacturers conspired to fix, raise, maintain,
or stabilize prices of TFT-LCD Flat Panels resulting in overcharges to
consumers who bought products containing the panels.
Not all of the companies have settled, but those that have settled have set
up a class action settlement fund of more than $538 million to pay
individual and business consumers in the District of Columbia and the
following 24 states:
* Arizona
* Arkansas
* California
* Florida
* Hawaii
* Iowa
* Kansas
* Maine
* Massachusetts
* Michigan
* Minnesota
* Mississippi
* Missouri
* Nevada
* New Mexico
* New York
* North Carolina
* North Dakota
* Rhode Island
* South Dakota
* Tennessee
* Vermont
* West Virginia
* Wisconsin
The indirect LCD panel class action lawsuit settlement also includes a "
nationwide" class of any person or business that indirectly purchased in the
United States a TFT-LCD panel product from one or more of the Defendants
between 1999 and the present.
The amount of money you will receive from the LCD panel class action
settlement, and when you will receive it, is unknown at this time because
the lawyers for the Plaintiffs are pursuing lawsuits against the non-
settling companies. The on-going litigation may result in additional money
for Class Members.
In order to receive a payment, you will need to file a valid claim form when
the claims period begins. A notice about the claims process will be made
available after the conclusion of the lawsuits or as ordered by the Court.
If you want to receive a notice about the claims process or future class
action settlements, you should register at www.LCDclass.com:

or by calling (855) 225-1886.
