March 15, 2012 Opinion or Order Filing 33 ORDER CERTIFYING SETTLEMENT CLASS, PRELIMINARY APPROVING CLASS-ACTION SETTLEMENT AND APPROVING FORM AND MANNER OF NOTICE - The Court adopts the Findings and Recommendation of the Magistrate Judge, filing 31 , and enters the following order granting 18 Motion to Certify Class.

Mossman, Irwin B. Levin, Scott Gilchrist, V. Gene Summerlin, Jr., and Natalie K. Winegar are appointed as Settlement Class Counsel. The Court therefore preliminarily approves the Settlement Agreement and directs the parties to perform and satisfy the terms and conditions of the Settlement Agreement that are thereby triggered. A hearing (the "Fairness Hearing") shall be held on November 20, 2012, at 10 a.m. before the undersigned in Courtroom No. 1, Robert V. Denney Federal Building, 100 Centennial Mall North, Lin coln, NE 68508-3803. The date of the Fairness Hearing will be included in the Court Notice and Summary Notice. The Court appoints Rust Consulting, Inc., of Minneapolis, Minnesota, to serve as Claims Administrator. The Court has reviewed the Court N otice and Summary Notice, attached to the Settlement Agreement, as Exhibits C and D, respectively. (Filing 20 -1 at 51-67) The Court approves as to form the Summary Notice and the Court Notice. The Court also approves the method of directing notice to Class Members, as set forth in paragraphs 12 and 13 below. During the Court's consideration of the Settlement Agreement and pending further order of the Court, all proceedings in this Action, other than proceedings necessary to carry out the terms and provisions of the Settlement Agreement, or as otherwise directed by the Court, are hereby stayed and suspended. If the proposed Settlement Agreement is not approved by the Court or for any reason does not become effective, the Settl ement Agreement will be regarded as nullified, certification of the Settlement Classes for settlement purposes will be vacated, and the steps and actions taken in connection with the proposed Settlements (including this Order, except as to this pa ragraph, and any judgment entered herein) shall become void and have no further force or effect. In such event, the parties and their counsel shall take such steps as may be appropriate to restore the pre-settlement status of the litigation. The Court retains jurisdiction over this action, the Parties, and all matters relating to the Settlement Agreement. Ordered by Judge John M. Gerrard. (GJG)
