Who may receive a settlement payment?
- Eligible recipients generally held AeroGrow common stock on February 26, 2021 and had the right to receive the $3.00-per-share merger consideration, or are their successors or assigns.
- The notice excludes defendants and related parties, government entities, judicial personnel and their immediate families, valid opt-outs, and dissenters-rights shares.
Do I need to submit a claim?
- No. Eligible payment recipients receive an automatic per-share distribution after the settlement becomes effective.
- The payment is based on shares held on the merger date, not on a claim form.
How is my payment calculated?
- Each eligible recipient receives a pro rata share of the net fund based on the number of AeroGrow shares owned on February 26, 2021.
- The $15,978,202.50 fund is reduced by approved administration, taxes, legal fees and expenses, and service awards before distribution.
How do I exclude myself?
- Mail a signed exclusion letter postmarked by March 9, 2026. It must include the information and ownership proof listed in the notice.
- A valid opt-out receives no settlement payment and is not bound by the settlement.
