AGA Service Co. et al., No. 4:20-cv-06304 (U.S. District Court, Northern District of California) (the “Elgindy Action”) and Tasakos v. AGA Service Co. et al., No. 2:22-cv-00433 (U.S. District Court, Western District of Washington) (the “Tasakos Action”) (collectively, the “Actions”). • This class action settlement (the “Settlement”) will resolve the Actions against AGA Service Company (d/b/a Allianz Global Assistance), Jefferson Insurance Company, and BCS Insurance Company (collectively, “Defendants”). In the Actions, Plaintiffs allege that Defendants’ sales were unlawful, unfair, and/or deceptive because the plan prices for Defendants’ Travel and/or Event Protection Plans include Assistance Fees for “non-insurance assistance services.” Defendants deny any wrongdoing. They contend that they have complied with the law in all respects regarding Assistance Fees collected in relation to the assistance services included with Defendants’ protection plans. • To settle the Actions on behalf of all Defendants, AGA has agreed to a Settlement Amount of $19.75 million from which Cash Payments may be made to affected Class Members. • The lawyers who brought the lawsuit have asked the Court to set aside some of the Settlement Amount for reimbursement of their out-of-pocket expenses, up to a maximum of $205,000, and up to 25% of the Settlement Amount in attorneys’ fees for investigating the facts, litigating the case, and negotiating the Settlement. They have also asked for $5,000 as an Incentive Award for each of the Plaintiffs who brought the Actions. If the Court approves these requests, these amounts would be paid to Plaintiffs and the lawyers out of the Settlement Fund. • Your legal rights may be affected whether or not you act. Read the Notice carefully. The Notice summarizes the proposed Settlement. For the precise terms and conditions of the Settlement, please see the Settlement Agreement available here, or contact the Settlement Administrator at Assistance Fee Settlement Administrator, 1650 Arch Street, Suite 2210, Philadelphia, PA 19103 or by email info@assistancefeesettlement.com or by telephone at 1-844-665-0015.
