Question 1

Why was the Notice issued?

Accepted Answer

A Court authorized the Notice
[https://angeion-public.s3.amazonaws.com/www.teamgroupdramsettlement.com/docs/Long_Form_Notice.pdf]
because you have a right to know about a proposed Settlement of this class
action lawsuit and about all of your options, before the Court decides whether
to give final approval to the Settlement. The Notice explains the lawsuit, the
Settlement, and your legal rights. Judge Vera of the United States District
Court for the Central District of California is overseeing this class action.
The lawsuit is known as Griffin et al. v. Team Group, Inc., Case No.
2:24-cv-03681. The people who sued, Malcolm Griffin and Kariem Ibrahim, are
called the "Class Representatives." The company that got sued, Team Group, Inc.,
is called the "Defendant" or "Team Group."

Question 2

What is a class action?

Accepted Answer

In a class action, one or more people called Class Representatives (in this
case, Malcolm Griffin and Kariem Ibrahim) sue on behalf of a group or a "class"
of people who have similar claims. In a class action, the court resolves the
issues for all class members, except for those who choose to exclude
[/faqs?id=14] themselves from the class.

Question 3

What is this lawsuit about?

Accepted Answer

The lawsuit claims that Team Group deceptively advertised and labeled the speed
of its DDR-3, DDR-4, and DDR-5 dynamic random-access memory (DRAM) products, and
that Team Group is liable for violations of consumer protection statutes and
breach of express warranty. The Plaintiffs in the lawsuit allege that they were
led to believe that the advertised speeds were "out of the box" speeds requiring
no adjustments to their PCs. Team Group denies any wrongdoing of any kind and
denies that it violated any law. Team Group maintains that its memory products
were appropriately labeled and advertised at all times and that they performed
as represented. The Settlement is not an admission of wrongdoing or liability of
any kind.

Question 4

Why is there a settlement?

Accepted Answer

Team Group denies the allegations in the lawsuit, and the Court has not decided
whether the Plaintiffs or the Defendant should win this case. Instead, both
sides agreed to a Settlement. That way, they avoid the uncertainties, burdens,
and expenses associated with ongoing litigation, and Class Members will get
compensation now rather than years from now, if at all. More information about
the Settlement and the lawsuit are available in the "Important Documents
[/important-documents]" section of this website.

Question 5

How do I know if I am in the Settlement Class?

Accepted Answer

The Court decided that everyone who fits this description and chooses not to
request to be excluded [/faqs?id=14] is a member of the Settlement Class:

All individuals in the United States who purchased one or more Team Group DDR-3,
DDR-4, and/or DDR-5 dynamic random-access memory (DRAM) products from May 3,
2020 to April 8, 2026.

Excluded from the Settlement Class are: (1) any Judge or Magistrate presiding
over this action and members of their families; (2) the Defendant, Defendant's
subsidiaries, parent companies, successors, predecessors, and any entity in
which the Defendant or its parents have a controlling interest and their current
or former officers, directors, and employees; (3) counsel of record (and their
respective law firms) for the Parties; (4) persons who properly execute and file
a timely request for exclusion from the class; and (5) the legal
representatives, successors or assigns of any such excluded persons.

Administrator at 866-545-4202 or email info@TeamGroupDRAMSettlement.com
