Case 1:13-cv-23656-JJO Document 172 Entered on FLSD Docket 10/22/2015 Page 1 of 5 FRANCISCO RENE MARTY, SETH GOLDMAN, and FERNANDO MARQUET on behalf of themselves and all others similarly situated; UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF FLORIDA Case No. 13-cv-23656-JJO [CONSENT] Plaintiffs, v. CLASS ACTION ANHEUSER-BUSCH COMPANIES, LLC; Defendant. ------------------------------~/ FINAL ORDER AND JUDGMENT On June 23, 2015, this Court granted preliminary approval of the proposed class action settlement set forth in the Settlement Agreement and Release ("Settlement Agreement") between Plaintiffs Francisco Rene Marty, Seth Goldman, and Fernando Marquet, individually and on behalf of themselves and all members of the Settlement Class, 1 and Defendant Anheuser-Busch Companies, LLC ("Defendant" or "A-B"). On October 20, 2015, the Court held a duly noticed final approval hearing to consider (1) whether the terms and conditions of the Settlement Agreement are fair, reasonable, and adequate; (2) whether a judgment should be entered permanently barring the Parties and Settlement Class Members from prosecuting the other Parties and their officers, attorneys, directors, shareholders, employees, agents, retailers, suppliers, distributors, endorsers, consultants, and any and all other entities or persons upstream and downstream in the 1 Unless otherwise defined, capitalized terms in this Final Order and Judgment have the definitions found in the Settlement Agreement.

Case 1:13-cv-23656-JJO Document 172 Entered on FLSD Docket 10/22/2015 Page 2 of 5 production/distribution channels in regard to those matters released as set forth in Section VI of the Settlement Agreement; and (3) whether and in what amount to approve Class Counsel's application for the requested award of attorneys' fees and costs and the Class Representative applications. Accordingly, it is hereby ORDERED AND ADJUDGED that: 1. The Court has personal jurisdiction over the parties and the Settlement Class Members, venue is proper, the Court has subject matter jurisdiction to approve the Settlement Agreement, including all exhibits thereto, and to enter this Final Order and Judgment. Without in any way affecting the finality of this Final Order and Judgment, this Court hereby retains jurisdiction as to all matters relating to administration, consummation, enforcement, and interpretation of the Settlement Agreement and of this Final Order and Judgment, and for any other necessary purpose for five (5) years and one month from the date of this Order. 2. The Court finds that Class Notice was given in the manner ordered by the Court; constituted the best practicable notice to apprise Settlement Class Members of the pendency of the Action, their right to object or exclude themselves from the proposed Settlement, and their right to appear at the Final Approval Hearing; was fair, reasonable, and adequate and constituted sufficient notice to all persons entitled to receive notice, including all Settlement Class Members; and complied fully with the requirements of Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 23. 3. The Court finds that the prerequisites for a class action under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 23(a) and Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 23(b) have been satisfied for settlement purposes for each Settlement Class Member in that (a) the number of Settlement Class Members is so numerous that joinder of all members thereof is impracticable; (b) there 2

Case 1:13-cv-23656-JJO Document 172 Entered on FLSD Docket 10/22/2015 Page 3 of 5.. are questions of law and fact common to the Settlement Class; (c) the claims of the Class Representatives are typical of the claims of the Settlement Class they seek to represent; (d) Class Representatives have fairly and adequately represented the interests of the Settlement Class for purposes of entering into the Settlement Agreement; (e) the questions of law and fact common to the Settlement Class Members predominate over any questions affecting any individual Settlement Class Member; (f) Defendant has acted on grounds generally applicable to all Class Members, thereby making final injunctive relief concerning the class as a whole appropriate; and (g) a class action is superior to the other available methods for the fair and efficient adjudication of the controversy. 4. Pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 23, this Court hereby finally certifies the Settlement Class, as identified in the Settlement Agreement, which shall consist of all consumers who purchased Beck's Beer in the United States for personal, family, or household purposes and not for re-sale from May 1, 2011 through June 23, 2015.
