NOTICE OF CLASS ACTION AND PROPOSED SETTLEMENT

NOTICE OF CLASS ACTION AND PROPOSED SETTLEMENT TO: All persons who have performed in a motion picture, television program, or certain other audiovisual work that has earned foreign royalties. THIS NOTICE MAY AFFECT YOUR RIGHTS PLEASE READ THE COMPLETE NOTICE CAREFULLY. I. PURPOSE OF THIS NOTICE There is now pending in the Superior Court of the County of Los Angeles a class action lawsuit entitled Ken Osmond v. Screen Actors Guild, Inc., Case No. BC 377780 (the Litigation ). This Notice explains the nature of the Litigation, general terms of a proposed settlement, and informs you of your legal rights and obligations. 1 This case arises as a result of the collection and distribution to Performers of Foreign Royalty Funds (also known as Foreign Levy Funds). During the 1980s, various European countries began to adopt laws imposing royalties on home video rentals, blank cassettes, recording equipment, and cable retransmissions. These foreign royalties are taxes imposed by foreign countries in part to compensate performers in motion pictures and television programs for consumer copying of those works onto blank tapes, DVDs, and other media. These royalties were designed to provide compensation to rights holders, including performers in the motion pictures and television programs exhibited within each country, for works that are subject to copying. Laws enacted in various European nations authorized private collecting societies existing in each country to allocate and distribute the royalties to the rights holders of the affected films and programs. American performers receive foreign royalties as a result of extensive efforts by Screen Actors Guild, Inc. ( SAG ), which obtained the agreement of motion picture and television production companies that performers would receive a portion of royalties from the foreign collecting societies. In this Litigation, Plaintiff has questioned the authority of SAG to collect these foreign royalties and has asserted that SAG has failed to properly distribute foreign royalties to Performers. SAG has denied, and continues to deny, each and every claim and contention alleged in the Litigation. Nonetheless, SAG has concluded that further conduct of the Litigation would be protracted, expensive, and would divert resources from important member initiatives, and that therefore it is desirable that the Litigation be fully and finally settled in the manner and upon the terms and conditions set forth in the proposed settlement. Plaintiff Osmond and his Counsel have investigated and evaluated the claims asserted in the Litigation 1 Unless otherwise set forth herein, this Notice incorporates by reference the definitions set forth in the Settlement Agreement. 1

and have determined that the proposed settlement is fair, reasonable and adequate. The proposed Settlement provides for various policies and procedures to ensure that to the extent SAG is collecting foreign royalties, the monies are collected and distributed in a fair and reasonable manner. The settlement also requires SAG to publish detailed information about the foreign royalty program on its website. Plaintiff believes that there are many risks to going forward with the Litigation, including the risks of not being able to certify the case as a class action, or of certifying a class but failing to prove liability or damages. Plaintiff acknowledges SAG has been faced with some challenges in distributing foreign royalties, yet has made strides, and has cooperated fully and in good faith with Plaintiff in attempting to amicably and efficiently resolve this lawsuit at minimal cost. The Honorable Judge Carl J. West of the Superior Court of the County of Los Angeles (the Court ) has determined that this Litigation should proceed as a class action for purposes of settlement only, with plaintiff Ken Osmond as the representative of the Class, and has granted preliminary approval of the settlement. II. CLASS MEMBERS The Court has conditionally ruled that the Litigation may be maintained on behalf of any Performer 2 who satisfies both of the following criteria ( Class Members ): (1) Is a Performer (as defined in Paragraph II(E)); AND (2) SAG has received Foreign Royalty Funds attributable to such Performer. Excluded from the Class are SAG and its parents, subsidiaries, affiliates, any entity in which SAG has a controlling interest, and the legal representatives, heirs, successors, and assigns of SAG. III. SETTLEMENT BENEFIT FOR CLASS MEMBERS A. If this settlement is finally approved by the Court, SAG will engage an independent consultant to conduct a one-time review of SAG s foreign royalty program and to make recommendations to improve the processing and distribution of Foreign Royalty Funds to Class Members. The results of the review will be published by SAG in conjunction with its publication of the foreign royalty program, as stated below. SAG will implement the proposals it deems, in good faith and in its sound business judgment, to be appropriate. A more detailed description of the review process can be found in Section V(A) of the Settlement Agreement. 2 The term Performer is defined as set forth in Paragraph II.E of the Settlement Agreement, namely: The term Performer shall include (except as limited by international treaties, European directives, laws or regulations in the source country or by the source collecting society) any individual who satisfies the criteria of either Paragraphs II(E)(1) or II(E)(2) below: (1) An individual who is entitled to residuals under the applicable SAG collective bargaining agreements for a given work, and whose type of performance (a) generally is included in such works as distributed in the source country, and (b) for which [Foreign Royalty Funds] are collected and paid by collecting societies in such source country; or (2) an individual who is entitled to residuals under the applicable SAG collective bargaining agreements for a given work, and claims entitlement to [Foreign Royalty Funds]. The term includes any Performer s heirs, successors, beneficiaries, trustees, and assigns, including, without limitation, any entity to which a Performer as assigned his/her right to receive Foreign Royalty Funds (to the extent assignable). 2

B. For fiscal year 2011 and all subsequent fiscal years in which SAG maintains its foreign royalties program, SAG shall, as part of its annual financial review, have a review performed of the foreign royalties program. Said review of the foreign royalties shall be performed by the same accounting firm that SAG selects for its overall annual review. Such reports will be posted on SAG s website. A more detailed description of the review process can be found in Section V(B) of the Settlement Agreement. C. For a period of three (3) years, on an annual basis, SAG will publicize the existence and availability of Foreign Royalty Funds and SAG s foreign royalties program through the Screen Actor Magazine and one other industry publication to be determined. SAG s website will also contain content regarding the foreign royalty program, including: (1) a report, updated on an annual basis, on the status of collection of Foreign Royalty Funds and the operation of the foreign royalties program, including the status of any particular issues that may arise which may impact the payment or collection of Foreign Royalty Funds; (2) a description and explanation of the genesis, nature, and operation of the foreign royalties program, the sources of Foreign Royalty Funds, and the procedure for a Performer to submit a claim to SAG for payment of the Foreign Royalty Funds; and (3) the names of all actors who may be eligible for payment of Foreign Royalty Funds but who have not been paid because SAG cannot locate them. The foregoing information will at all times be published continuously on the SAG website. D. SAG will publish on its website, and update on a bi-monthly basis, a list of Performers for whom at least $10 of Foreign Royalty Funds have been assigned but not yet paid (e.g., the funds have been assigned to a Performer, but SAG has not yet issued its next run of checks). If a user clicks on a Performer s name, the source of the funds will appear (e.g., title and/or source territory), and the user will be provided with an estimated date on which he or she may expect to receive payment. In addition, SAG will publish on its website, and update on a bi-monthly basis, a list of Performers for whom less than $10 of Foreign Royalty Funds have been assigned. If a user clicks on a Performer s name, the source of the funds will appear (e.g., title and/or source territory), and the user will be provided with at telephone number and email address to use to contact SAG for further information. If a Performer contacts SAG and requests payment of Foreign Royalty Funds which have been assigned to him or her, but have not accrued to the minimum $10 for check issuance, SAG shall timely pay that Performer, even though $10 have not accrued, provided that the amount is greater than $1. E. SAG will use reasonable efforts to allocate and pay, according to the terms of the Settlement Agreement, ninety percent (90%) of all Foreign Royalty Funds (a) in its possession at the time the settlement becomes effective and (b) for which SAG has received the corresponding information from the collecting society necessary to properly distribute the funds, to the proper recipients within thirty-six (36) months. SAG will 3

use reasonable efforts to allocate and pay, according to the terms of the Settlement Agreement, Funds in its possession after the settlement becomes effective to the proper recipients within thirty-six (36) months of the receipt of both the Foreign Royalty Funds and the distribution information from the collecting societies. IV.
