03431-RFL (N.D. Cal.)

SETTLEMENT; (II) SETTLEMENT FAIRNESS HEARING; AND (III) MOTION
FOR ATTORNEYS’ FEES AND LITIGATION EXPENSES
If you bought the common stock of Seagate Technology Holdings plc (“Seagate”) from September
14, 2020 through April 19, 2023, inclusive, you could get a payment from a $175 million
settlement.
A federal court authorized this notice. This is not a solicitation from a lawyer.
• The parties to this class action lawsuit have reached a proposed settlement that, if approved, will
provide $175,000,000.00 ($1.03 per eligible share if claims are submitted for each share) to pay
claims from persons and entities who purchased or otherwise acquired common stock of Seagate
Technology Holdings plc (“Seagate”) from September 14, 2020 through April 19, 2023, inclusive
(the “Class Period”).
• The settlement resolves a lawsuit in which Plaintiffs alleged that Seagate, its Chief Executive
Officer, Dr. William Mosley, and its Chief Financial Officer, Gianluca Romano, misled investors
by concealing the magnitude of Seagate’s sales to a Chinese company in violation of U.S. export
laws, and that Seagate’s profitability was largely based on those illegal sales.
• Defendants deny any liability or wrongdoing. Defendants do not agree with the assertion that they
violated the federal civil securities laws or that any damages were suffered by any members of the
Settlement Class as a result of Defendants’ alleged conduct.
• The parties have agreed to the settlement because it avoids costs from and risks to continuing the
lawsuit; pays money to investors like you; and releases Defendants from liability.
• The parties do not agree on the average amount of damages per share of Seagate common stock
that would be recoverable if Plaintiffs prevailed in the Action.
• Court-appointed lawyers for investors will apply to the Court for attorneys’ fees in an amount not
to exceed 25% of the Settlement Fund. Lead Counsel will also apply for payment of Litigation
Expenses, in an amount not to exceed $1.3 million, which amount may include a request for
reimbursement of the costs incurred by Plaintiffs directly related to their representation of the
Settlement Class. If the Court approves the maximum amount of the fees and expenses requested,
the estimated average cost per eligible share of Seagate common stock will be approximately $0.26
per share.
• Identification of Attorneys’ Representatives: Plaintiffs and the Settlement Class are represented
by Christopher F. Moriarty of Motley Rice LLC, 28 Bridgeside Blvd., Mount Pleasant, SC 29464,

will be made if the Court approves the settlement and after appeals are resolved. Please be patient.

wrongdoing or violation of law of any kind whatsoever. Defendants further deny that their alleged
conduct caused the Settlement Class any harm or damages.
The Court has not determined who is right. The proposed settlement to resolve this case is not an
admission of guilt or wrongdoing.
The Procedural History:
The Action is currently pending before Judge Rita F. Lin in the United States District Court for the
Northern District of California. The initial complaint in the Action was filed on July 10, 2023. On
September 25, 2023, the Court entered an Order appointing Universal-Investment-Gesellschaft mbH,
Universal-Investment-Luxembourg S.A., and UI BVK Kapitalverwaltungsgesellschaft mbH; Public
Employees’ Retirement System of Mississippi; and Arkansas Public Employees’ Retirement System
(together, “Plaintiffs”) as “Lead Plaintiffs” pursuant to the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of
1995 (“PSLRA”), consolidating all related actions, and appointing Motley Rice LLC (“Motley Rice”)
and Bernstein Litowitz Berger & Grossmann LLP (“BLB&G”) as “Lead Counsel.”
On October 19, 2023, Plaintiffs filed a Consolidated Class Action Complaint for Violations of Federal
Securities Laws against Seagate, Mosley, and Romano. On November 13, 2023, Defendants filed a
motion to dismiss, which was fully briefed by December 18, 2023, and argued on March 26, 2024. On
August 8, 2024, the Court dismissed Plaintiffs’ initial complaint with leave to amend. On September
12, 2024, Plaintiffs filed the operative complaint in the Action, the Consolidated Amended Class Action
Complaint for Violations of Federal Securities Laws (“Complaint”).
On October 28, 2024, Defendants filed a motion to dismiss the Complaint, which was fully briefed by
January 16, 2025, and argued on March 4, 2025. On May 12, 2025, the Court issued an order granting
in part and denying in part Defendants’ motion to dismiss the Complaint. Defendants filed their Answer
to the Complaint on June 23, 2025, and their Amended Answer to the Complaint on July 14, 2025.
On June 25, 2025, the Court held a Case Management Conference and set the schedule for the Action
through class certification. In 2025 and through the date of the proposed settlement, the parties engaged
in extensive discovery, including production of documents, written discovery and depositions. The
parties participated in a private mediation with David M. Murphy of Phillips ADR Enterprises on
November 5, 2025, but no settlement was reached. On December 16, 2025, Plaintiffs filed a Motion
for Class Certification, Appointment of Class Representatives, and Approval of Class Counsel.
Defendants filed their opposition on February 10, 2026, and Plaintiffs filed a reply on March 24, 2026.
That motion remains pending.
The Parties participated in another private mediation with David M. Murphy on March 21, 2026. No
settlement was reached at the time, but settlement discussions continued. The Parties agreed to settle
the Action in return for a cash payment of $175 million to be paid by or on behalf of Defendants for
the benefit of the Settlement Class, subject to the negotiation of a Term Sheet that the Parties executed
as of April 20, 2026, and subject to negotiation of the terms of a stipulation of settlement, which can

be found at www.SeagateSecuritiesLitigation.com, and approval by the Court.

might be achieved after contested motions, trial, and likely
appeals, a process that could last several more years. Defendants
have agreed to the Settlement solely to eliminate the uncertainty, burden and expense of continued
litigation. Accordingly, the Settlement may not be construed as an admission of any wrongdoing by
Defendants.
What happens next in this lawsuit?
The Court will hold a Settlement Fairness Hearing to decide whether the Settlement and the Plan of
Allocation are fair, reasonable, and adequate. If there are objections, the Court will consider them,
even if the objectors do not attend or ask to speak at the hearing. The Court will listen to people who
have asked to speak at the hearing. The Court may also decide the amount of attorneys’ fees, expenses,
and awards to Plaintiffs.
At or after the Settlement Hearing, the Court will decide whether to approve the Settlement and the
Plan of Allocation. We do not know how long these decisions will take. You should be aware that the
Court may change the date, time, and location of the Settlement Hearing without another notice being
sent to Settlement Class Members.
The final approval hearing will be held in person, and Settlement Class Members will be able to observe
and participate (subject to the terms below) via Zoom videoconference, at 10:00 a.m. Pacific Time on
November 17, 2026, before the Honorable Rita F. Lin in Courtroom 4, 17th Floor, United States District
Court for the Northern District of California, Phillip Burton Federal Building, 450 Golden Gate
Avenue, San Francisco, CA 94102, and at the Zoom link https://cand.uscourts.gov/judges/rfl/lin-rita-f.
Where: Phillip Burton Federal Building, 450 Golden Gate Avenue, Courtroom 4, 17th Floor, San
Francisco, CA 94102.
The Court has directed the Plaintiffs to send you this notice about the proposed settlement. Because the
settlement of a class action decides the rights of all members of the proposed class, the Court must give
final approval to the settlement before it can take effect. Payments will only be made if the Court
approves the settlement.
You are welcome to attend in person or via videoconference. If you incur travel or related expenses to
attend, you will need to pay those yourself. You may also ask the Court for permission to speak and
express your opinion about the settlement. If the Court does not approve the settlement or any parties
5
decide to end it, it will be void and the lawsuit will continue. The date of the hearing may change
without further notice to members of the class. To learn more and confirm the hearing date, go to
www.SeagateSecuritiesLitigation.com.
Learning About the Settlement
What does the settlement provide?
Seagate has agreed to create a $175 million fund to be divided among all Settlement Class Members
who send in a valid Claim Form. This money will be divided among the eligible Settlement Class
Members and will also be used to pay for costs and lawyer fees approved by the Court, and for the cost
of administering this settlement.
If you are a Settlement Class Member and you do not exclude yourself, all the Court’s orders will apply
to you and legally bind you. By remaining in the Settlement Class, you will “release” your claims as
part of the settlement, which means you cannot sue Defendants for the same issues and legal violations
raised in this lawsuit. If the Court approves the Settlement, the Court will enter a final approval order
(the “Final Approval Order”) and a judgment (the “Judgment”). The Judgment will end the Action. The
Final Approval Order will provide that, without further action by anyone, upon the Effective Date of
the Settlement, Settlement Class Members, on behalf of themselves and their Releasing Related Persons
(as defined below), shall be deemed to have, and by operation of law and of the Final Approval Order
and Judgment, or the Alternate Judgment, if applicable, shall have, fully, finally, and forever
compromised, settled, released, resolved, relinquished, waived, and discharged, and will be forever
barred from asserting, commencing, instituting, prosecuting, or maintaining in any court of law or
equity, arbitration, or other forum, any and all of the Released Plaintiffs’ Claims (as defined below)
against the Defendants’ Releasees (as defined below), whether or not such Settlement Class Member
executes and delivers a Claim or objects to the Settlement. This Release shall not apply to any of the
Excluded Claims. This provision will apply regardless of whether any Plaintiff or other Settlement
Class Member or their Releasing Related Persons has executed a Claim Form, received notice,
participated in the Settlement Fund, filed an objection, or had his, her, or its Claim approved or allowed.
In addition, the Final Approval Order will provide that, without further action by anyone, upon the
Effective Date of the Settlement, Defendants, on behalf of themselves and their Releasing Related
Persons, shall be deemed to have, and by operation of law and of the Final Approval Order and
Judgment, or the Alternate Judgment, if applicable, shall have, fully, finally, and forever compromised,
settled, released, resolved, relinquished, waived, and discharged any and all Released Defendants’
Claims against Plaintiffs and the other Plaintiffs’ Releasees. This Release shall not apply to any of the
Excluded Claims.
• “Released Plaintiffs’ Claims” means all claims, actions, demands, losses, rights, duties, obligations,
controversies, disputes, debts, sums of money, suits, contracts, agreements, judgments, matters,
issues, promises, damages, liabilities, and causes of action of any nature whatsoever, of every nature
and description (including, but not limited to, any claims for interest, attorneys’ fees, expert or
consulting fees, and any other costs, expenses, amounts or liabilities whatsoever), including known
claims and Unknown Claims, that have been or could have been asserted in the Action or could in
the future be asserted in any forum, whether foreign or domestic, arising under federal, state,

could have been asserted in any forum that both (A) arise out of, are based upon, or relate in any
way to, directly or indirectly, any of the allegations, acts, transactions, facts, events, matters,

occurrences, disclosures, conduct, failures to act, representations, or omissions alleged, involved,
set forth, or referred to in the Complaint and (B) arise out of, are based upon, or relate in any way,

exist in his, her, or its favor at the time of the release of such claims, which, if known by him, her,
or it, might have affected his, her, or its decision(s) with respect to this Settlement, including,
without limitation, a Settlement Class Member’s decision not to object or request exclusion from
the Settlement Class. Any of Lead Plaintiffs, the Settlement Class Members, and Defendants, and
any of the foregoing’s Releasing Related Persons, may hereafter discover facts in addition to or
different from those that he, she, or it now knows or believes to be true with respect to the subject
matter of Released Plaintiffs’ Claims and Released Defendants’ Claims. But they stipulate and
agree that, upon the Effective Date of the Settlement, Lead Plaintiffs and Defendants shall
expressly waive, and each of the other Settlement Class Members and any of the foregoing’s
Releasing Related Persons shall be deemed to have waived, and by operation of the Final Approval
Order and Judgment or the Alternate Judgment, if applicable, shall have expressly waived, any
and all provisions, rights, and benefits conferred by any law of any state or territory of the United
States, or principle of common or foreign law, which is similar, comparable, or equivalent to
California Civil Code § 1542, which provides:
A general release does not extend to claims that the creditor or releasing party does not
know or suspect to exist in his or her favor at the time of executing the release and that, if
known by him or her, would have materially affected his or her settlement with the debtor
or released party.
Lead Plaintiffs and Defendants acknowledge, and each of the other Settlement Class Members and

How much will my payment be?
If you purchased or otherwise acquired shares of Seagate common stock between September 14,
2020 and April 19, 2023, you may be a Settlement Class Member and entitled to money.
There are exceptions. You are not a Settlement Class Member if:
• you are currently or were an officer or director of Seagate;
• you are an Immediate Family Member of a current or former Seagate officer or director;
• you are the legal representative, heir, or assign of any such excluded persons;
• you owned Seagate common stock solely through a mutual fund between September 14, 2020
and April 19, 2023;
• you sold but did not purchase or acquire Seagate common stock between September 14, 2020
and April 19, 2023;
• you are the presiding judge, their staff, or an Immediate Family Member of the Judge or their
staff.
If you are still unsure if you are a Settlement Class Member, contact the Claims Administrator toll-free
at 866-426-2293 or by email at [email protected], visit www.SeagateSecurities
Litigation.com, or submit a Claim Form to see if you are eligible.
Based on Plaintiffs’ estimate of the number of allegedly damaged shares eligible to recover under the
Settlement, the average distribution per share of Seagate common stock under the Plan of Allocation is
approximately $1.03, before deduction of any taxes on the income earned on the Settlement Amount,
notice and administration costs, and the attorneys’ fees and litigation expenses as determined by the
Court. Please note, however, that this is only an estimate. A Settlement Class Member’s actual
recovery will be a proportion of the Net Settlement Fund determined by that claimant’s claim as
compared to the total claims of all Settlement Class Members who submit acceptable Claim Forms.
An individual Settlement Class Member may receive more or less than this estimated average
distribution amount.
The Plan of Allocation, which will be used to calculate your claim, is set forth below. The objective
8
of the Plan of Allocation, formulated in consultation with Plaintiffs’ expert, is to equitably distribute
the Net Settlement Fund among Authorized Claimants based on their respective alleged economic
losses as a result of the alleged fraud, as opposed to losses caused by market- or industry-wide factors,
or company-specific factors unrelated to the alleged fraud. The Claims Administrator shall determine
each Authorized Claimant’s share of the Net Settlement Fund based upon the recognized loss formulas
(the “Recognized Loss”), formulated with the assistance of damages experts, described below.
Approval of the Settlement is independent from approval of a plan of allocation. Any Court
modification or rejection of the Plan of Allocation will not affect the binding nature of the Settlement,
if approved. Any orders regarding any modification of the Plan of Allocation will be posted on the
Settlement website, www.SeagateSecuritiesLitigation.com.
Plan of Allocation
As discussed above, the Settlement provides $175,000,000 in cash for the benefit of the Settlement
Class. The Settlement Amount and any interest it earns constitute the “Settlement Fund.” The
Settlement Fund, after deduction of Court-approved attorneys’ fees and Litigation Expenses, Notice
and Administration Costs, Taxes, and any other fees or expenses approved by the Court, is the “Net
Settlement Fund.” If the Settlement is approved by the Court, the Net Settlement Fund will be
distributed to eligible Authorized Claimants, i.e., Settlement Class Members who timely submit valid
Claim Forms that are accepted for payment by the Court, in accordance with a plan of allocation to be
adopted by the Court. Settlement Class Members who do not timely submit valid Claim Forms will
not share in the Net Settlement Fund but will otherwise be bound by the Settlement.
1. The Plan of Allocation (the “Plan”) set forth herein is the plan that is being proposed to the Court
for approval by Plaintiffs after consultation with their damages experts. The Court may approve
the Plan with or without modification, or approve another plan of allocation, without further notice
to the Settlement Class. Any Orders regarding a modification to the Plan will be posted to
www.SeagateSecuritiesLitigation.com. Defendants have had, and will have, no involvement or
responsibility for the terms or application of the Plan.
2. The objective of the Plan of Allocation is to equitably distribute the Net Settlement Fund among
Authorized Claimants who suffered economic losses as a proximate result of the wrongdoing
alleged in the Action. The calculations made pursuant to the Plan of Allocation are not intended
to be estimates of, nor indicative of, the amounts that Settlement Class Members might have been
able to recover after a trial. Nor are the calculations pursuant to the Plan of Allocation intended to
be estimates of the amounts that will be paid to Authorized Claimants pursuant to the Settlement.
The computations under the Plan of Allocation are only a method to weigh the claims of
Authorized Claimants against one another for the purposes of making pro rata allocations of the
Net Settlement Fund.
3. The Plan reflects the assumption that Defendants’ alleged false and misleading statements and
material omissions proximately caused the price of Seagate common stock to be artificially inflated
throughout the Class Period. In calculating the estimated alleged artificial inflation, Plaintiffs’
damages expert considered the impact of public announcements that Plaintiffs believe corrected
Defendants’ alleged false and misleading statements and material omissions, reflected in price
changes in Seagate common stock on March 8, 2022, July 22, 2022, October 26, 2022, and April
20, 2023, adjusting for price changes attributable to market or industry factors on those days.2
4. To determine the daily alleged artificial inflation per share, the applied methodology utilized a
2
Plaintiffs’ damages expert also considered the alleged introduction of artificial inflation on October 23, 2020, January 22,
2021, April 23, 2021, and October 22, 2021, as well as a partial reduction in the alleged artificial inflation on July 21, 2021.
9
constant-dollar inflation. The dollar amount inflation in the price of each share of Seagate common
stock based on this analysis for each trading day in the Class Period is set forth in Table A below.
5. Under the Plan, Recognized Loss Amounts are based primarily on the difference in the amount of
alleged artificial inflation in the prices of Seagate common stock at the time of purchase or
acquisition and at the time of sale, or the difference between the actual purchase price and sale
price. To have a Recognized Loss Amount under the Plan of Allocation, a Class Member who
purchased or otherwise acquired Seagate common stock during the Class Period must have held
those shares through at least one of the corrective disclosures that occurred on March 8, 2022, July
22, 2022, October 26, 2022, and April 20, 2023.
Calculation of Recognized Loss Amount
6. Based on the formula stated below, a “Recognized Loss Amount” will be calculated for each
purchase or acquisition of Seagate common stock during the Class Period that is listed on the Claim
Form and for which adequate documentation is provided. If a Recognized Loss Amount calculates
to a negative number or zero under the formula below, that Recognized Loss Amount will be zero.3
7. For each share of Seagate common stock purchased or otherwise acquired during the Class Period
(that is, the period from September 14, 2020, through April 19, 2023, inclusive), and:
A. Sold prior to the close of trading on March 7, 2022, the Recognized Loss Amount will
be $0.00.
B. Sold from March 8, 2022 through and including the close of trading on April 19, 2023,
the Recognized Loss Amount will be the lesser of: (i) the amount of alleged artificial
inflation on the purchase/acquisition date as stated in Table A below minus the amount
of alleged artificial inflation on the sale date as stated in Table A below; or (ii) the
purchase/acquisition price minus the sale price.
C. Sold from April 20, 2023, through and including the close of trading on July 18, 2023,
the Recognized Loss Amount will be the least of: (i) the amount of alleged artificial
inflation on the purchase/acquisition date as stated in Table A below; (ii) the
purchase/acquisition price minus the average closing price from April 20, 2023 through
the date of sale as stated in Table B below; or (iii) the purchase/acquisition price minus
the sale price.
D. Held as of the close of trading on July 18, 2023, the Recognized Loss Amount will be
the lesser of: (i) the amount of alleged artificial inflation on the purchase/acquisition date
as stated in Table A below, or (ii) the purchase/acquisition price minus $60.30.4

Any transactions in Seagate common stock executed outside of regular trading hours for the U.S. financial markets shall be
deemed to have occurred during the next regular trading session.

Pursuant to Section 21D(e)(1) of the Exchange Act, “in any private action arising under this title in which the plaintiff seeks
to establish damages by reference to the market price of a security, the award of damages to the plaintiff shall not exceed the
difference between the purchase or sale price paid or received, as appropriate, by the plaintiff for the subject security and the
mean trading price of that security during the 90-day period beginning on the date on which the information correcting the
misstatement or omission that is the basis for the action is disseminated to the market.” Consistent with the requirements of the
Exchange Act, Recognized Loss Amounts are reduced to an appropriate extent by taking into account the closing prices of
Seagate common stock during the “90-day look-back period” from April 20, 2023 through July 18, 2023. The mean (average)
closing price for Seagate common stock during this period was $60.30.

ADDITIONAL PROVISIONS
Calculation of Claimant’s “Recognized Claim”: A Claimant’s “Recognized Claim” will be the sum
of his, her, or its Recognized Loss Amounts as calculated above.
FIFO Matching: If a Claimant made more than one purchase/acquisition or sale of Seagate common
stock during the Class Period, all purchases/acquisitions and sales will be matched on a First In, First
Out (“FIFO”) basis. Class Period sales will be matched first against any holdings at the beginning of
the Class Period and then against purchases/acquisitions in chronological order, beginning with the
earliest purchase/acquisition made during the Class Period.
Purchase/Sale Prices: For the purposes of calculations above, “purchase/acquisition price” means the
actual price paid, excluding any fees, commissions, and taxes, and “sale price” means the actual
amount received, not deducting any fees, commissions, and taxes.
“Purchase/Acquisition/Sale” Dates: Purchases or acquisitions and sales of Seagate common stock
will be deemed to have occurred on the “contract” or “trade” date as opposed to the “settlement” or
“payment” date. The receipt or grant by gift, inheritance, or operation of law of Seagate common stock
during the Class Period will not be deemed a purchase, acquisition, or sale of Seagate common stock
for the calculation of a Claimant’s Recognized Loss Amount, nor will the receipt or grant be deemed
an assignment of any claim relating to the purchase/acquisition/sale of Seagate common stock unless
(i) the donor or decedent purchased or otherwise acquired or sold such Seagate common stock during
the Class Period; (ii) the instrument of gift or assignment specifically provides that it is intended to
transfer such rights; and (iii) no Claim was submitted by or on behalf of the donor, on behalf of the
decedent, or by anyone else with respect to shares of Seagate common stock.
Short Sales: The date of covering a “short sale” is deemed to be the date of purchase or acquisition
of the Seagate common stock. The date of a “short sale” is deemed to be the date of sale of the Seagate
common stock. In accordance with the Plan of Allocation, however, the Recognized Loss Amount on
“short sales” and the purchases covering “short sales” is zero.
If a Claimant has an opening short position in Seagate common stock, the earliest purchases or
acquisitions of Seagate common stock during the Class Period will be matched against such opening
short position, and not be entitled to a recovery, until that short position is fully covered.
Common Stock Purchased/Sold Through the Exercise of Options: Option contracts are not
securities eligible to participate in the Settlement. With respect to Seagate common stock purchased
12
or sold through the exercise of an option, the purchase/sale date of the common stock is the exercise
date of the option and the purchase/sale price is the exercise price of the option.
Market Gains and Losses: The Claims Administrator will determine if the Claimant had a “Market
Gain” or a “Market Loss” with respect to his, her, or its overall transactions in Seagate common stock
during the Class Period. For purposes of making this calculation, the Claims Administrator shall
determine the difference between (i) the Claimant’s Total Purchase Amount5 and (ii) the sum of the
Claimant’s Total Sales Proceeds6 and the Claimant’s Holding Value.7 If the Claimant’s Total Purchase
Amount minus the sum of the Claimant’s Total Sales Proceeds and the Holding Value is a positive
number, that number will be the Claimant’s Market Loss; if the number is a negative number or zero,
that number will be the Claimant’s Market Gain.
If a Claimant had a Market Gain with respect to his, her, or its overall transactions in Seagate common
stock during the Class Period, the value of the Claimant’s Recognized Claim will be zero, and the
Claimant will in any event be bound by the Settlement. If a Claimant suffered an overall Market Loss
with respect to his, her, or its overall transactions in Seagate common stock during the Class Period
but that Market Loss was less than the Claimant’s Recognized Claim, then the Claimant’s Recognized
Claim will be limited to the amount of the Market Loss.
Determination of Distribution Amount: The Net Settlement Fund will be distributed to Authorized
Claimants on a pro rata basis based on the relative size of their Recognized Claims. Specifically, a
“Distribution Amount” will be calculated for each Authorized Claimant, which will be the Authorized
Claimant’s Recognized Claim divided by the total Recognized Claims of all Authorized Claimants,
multiplied by the total amount in the Net Settlement Fund.
If an Authorized Claimant’s Distribution Amount calculates to less than $10.00, no distribution will
be made to that Authorized Claimant. Those funds will be included in the distribution to Authorized
Claimants whose Distribution Amount is $10.00 or more.
After the initial distribution of the Net Settlement Fund, the Claims Administrator will make
reasonable and diligent efforts to have Authorized Claimants cash their distribution checks. To the
extent any monies remain in the Net Settlement Fund six (6) months after the initial distribution, if
Lead Counsel, in consultation with the Claims Administrator, determine that it is cost-effective to do
so, the Claims Administrator will conduct a re-distribution of the funds remaining after payment of
any unpaid fees and expenses incurred in administering the Settlement, including for such re-
distribution, to Authorized Claimants who have cashed their initial distributions and who would
receive at least $10.00 from such re-distribution. Additional re-distributions to Authorized Claimants
who have cashed their prior checks may occur thereafter if Lead Counsel, in consultation with the
Claims Administrator, determine that additional re-distributions, after the deduction of any additional
fees and expenses incurred in administering the Settlement, including for such re-distributions, would
be cost-effective. If it is determined that the re-distribution of funds remaining in the Net Settlement
Fund is not cost-effective, the remaining balance will be contributed to the University of Miami School
of Law Investor Rights Clinic.
5
The “Total Purchase Amount” is the total amount the Claimant paid (excluding all fees, taxes, and commissions) for all
shares of Seagate common stock purchased or acquired during Class Period.
6
The Claims Administrator shall match any sales of Seagate common stock during the Class Period first against the Claimant’s
opening position in Seagate common stock (the proceeds of those sales will not be considered for purposes of calculating
market gains or losses). The total amount received (not deducting any fees, taxes and commissions) for sales of the remaining
shares of Seagate common stock sold during the Class Period is the “Total Sales Proceeds.”
7
The Claims Administrator shall ascribe a “Holding Value” of $57.08 to each share of Seagate common stock purchased or
acquired during the Class Period that was still held as of the close of trading on April 19, 2023.
13
Payment pursuant to the Plan of Allocation, or such other plan of allocation as may be approved by
the Court, will be conclusive against all Claimants. No person or entity shall have any claim against
Plaintiffs, Plaintiffs’ Counsel, Plaintiffs’ damages experts, Plaintiffs’ consulting experts, Defendants,
Defendants’ Counsel, or any of the other Plaintiffs’ Releasees or Defendants’ Releasees, or the Claims
Administrator or other agent designated by Lead Counsel arising from distributions made substantially
in accordance with the Stipulation, the plan of allocation approved by the Court, or further Orders of
the Court. Plaintiffs, Defendants, and their respective counsel, and all other Defendants’ Releasees,
shall have no responsibility or liability whatsoever for the investment or distribution of the Settlement
Fund or the Net Settlement Fund; the plan of allocation; the determination, administration, calculation,
or payment of any Claim or nonperformance of the Claims Administrator; the payment or withholding
of Taxes (including interest and penalties) owed by the Settlement Fund; or any losses incurred in
connection therewith.
If you have questions about the calculation and how it applies to you, contact the Claims Administrator
toll-free at 866-426-2293 or by email at [email protected].

Submitting a Claim
How do I get a payment if I am a Settlement Class Member?
If you wish to receive money, you must submit a completed Claim Form with adequate supporting
documentation to the Claims Administrator online or download a Claim Form at
www.SeagateSecuritiesLitigation.com and mail it to the Claims Administrator (address below). Please
retain all records of your ownership of and transactions in Seagate common stock, as they may be
needed to document your Claim. All financial information submitted in the claims process will be
used only for settlement purposes and will otherwise be kept confidential. For more information about
data security practices, please contact the Claims Administrator (contact information below).
Unless the Court otherwise orders or Plaintiffs’ Counsel exercise their discretion to excuse late
submission, any Settlement Class Member who fails to submit a Claim Form postmarked or submitted
online by 11:59 p.m. Pacific Time on October 19, 2026, shall be fully and forever barred from
receiving payments pursuant to the Settlement but will in all other respects remain a Settlement Class
15
Member and be subject to the provisions of the Stipulation, including the terms of any Judgment and
Final Approval Order entered and the Releases given.
Do I have a lawyer in this lawsuit?
In a class action, the court appoints class representatives and lawyers to work on the case and represent
the interests of all the class members. For this settlement, the Court has appointed Motley Rice LLC
and Bernstein Litowitz Berger & Grossmann LLP. These are the lawyers who negotiated this
settlement on your behalf.
If you want to be represented by your own lawyer, you may hire one at your own expense.
Do I have to pay the lawyers in this lawsuit?
Lawyers’ fees and costs will be paid from the Settlement Fund. You will not have to pay the lawyers
directly.
To date, your lawyers have not been paid any money for their work in pursuing claims against the
Defendants on behalf of the Settlement Class, nor have Plaintiffs’ Counsel been reimbursed for their
out-of-pocket expenses. To compensate them for their time and the risk in bringing this case without
any guarantee of payment unless they were successful, as part of the final approval of this Settlement,
your lawyers will apply to the Court for an award of attorneys’ fees in an amount not to exceed 25%
of the Settlement Fund plus interest. At the same time, your lawyers also intend to apply to the Court
for reimbursement of their expenses in an amount not to exceed $1.3 million, including the potential
awards for Class Representatives discussed below.
Lawyers’ fees and expenses will only be awarded if approved by the Court as fair and reasonable.
You have the right to object to the lawyers’ fees even if you think the settlement terms are fair.
Your lawyers will also ask the Court to approve a payment of a total not to exceed $75,000 to the
Class Representatives as reimbursement for the time and any other costs they incurred in representing
the Settlement Class. If approved by the Court, these cost reimbursement awards will be paid from the
Settlement Fund.
The total Notice and Administration Costs are estimated to be $679,000. Any fees and expenses
awarded by the Court will be paid from the Settlement Fund. Settlement Class Members are not
personally liable for any such fees or expenses.
Opting Out
What if I don’t want to be part of this settlement?
You can opt out. If you do, you will not receive payment and cannot object to the settlement.
However, you will not be bound or affected by anything that happens in this lawsuit. That means you
keep the right to sue Defendants or be part of another case against any of the Defendants about the
issues in this lawsuit. If you have a pending lawsuit about these issues against any of the
Defendants, speak to your lawyer in that case immediately. You must exclude yourself from this
Settlement Class to continue your own lawsuit.
Defendants have the right to terminate the Settlement if valid requests for exclusion are received from
persons and entities entitled to be Settlement Class Members in an amount that exceeds a threshold
agreed to by Plaintiffs and Defendants.
16
How do I opt out?
To opt out of the Settlement Class, you must complete the Opt-Out Form which is available online at
www.SeagateSecuritiesLitigation.com or mail a letter requesting exclusion to the Claims

Objecting
What if I disagree with the settlement?
If you disagree with any part of the Settlement, the Plan of Allocation, or the attorneys’ fee and
litigation expense application, but don’t want to opt out, you may file a written objection with the
Court or submit an Objection form online. The Court can only approve or deny the Settlement and
cannot change the terms of the Settlement. Objections must be in writing, unless the Court orders
otherwise. The Court may excuse the written objection requirement upon a showing of good cause.
Your objection must explain why you think the Court should not approve the Settlement and say
whether your objection applies to just you, a part of the class, or the entire class. The Court will
consider your views. The Court can only approve or deny the Settlement — it cannot change the terms
of the Settlement. If you submit a timely written objection, you may, but are not required to, appear
at the Settlement Fairness Hearing, either in person or through your own lawyer. If you appear through
your lawyer, you are responsible for hiring and paying that lawyer.
You may not object to the Settlement, the Plan of Allocation or Lead Counsel’s motion for attorneys’
fees and Litigation Expenses if you exclude yourself from the Settlement Class or if you are not a
Settlement Class Member. The requirement to submit a written objection as a prerequisite to appearing
in Court to object to the Settlement may be excused upon a showing of good cause. The Court will
require only substantial compliance with the requirements for submitting an objection.
An Objection Form is available online at www.SeagateSecuritiesLitigation.com or you may submit a
letter to the Court that:
(1) includes the case name and number: In re Seagate Technology Holdings plc Securities
Litigation, Case No. 3:23-cv-03431-RFL (N.D. Cal.);
17
(2) includes your full name, address, and telephone number, and email address (if you have one);
(3) states the reasons for your objection, including any legal and evidentiary support you wish
to bring to the Court’s attention;
(4) says whether either you or your lawyer intend to appear at the final approval hearing and
your lawyer’s name; and
(5) includes your signature.
If you intend to appear and desire to present evidence at the Settlement Hearing in support of your
objection, you should include in your written objection the identity of any witnesses you may call to
testify and any exhibits you intend to introduce into evidence at the hearing. Objectors should include
documents sufficient to prove membership in the Settlement Class, including the number of shares of
Seagate common stock that the objecting Settlement Class Member (A) owned as of the opening of
trading on September 14, 2020 and (B) purchased/acquired and/or sold during the Class Period, as
well as the dates, number of shares, and prices of each such purchase/acquisition and sale. To the
extent such documentation is not provided, the Parties may contest an objector’s standing as a member
of the Settlement Class.
You must file your written objection or form, together with copies of all other papers and briefs
supporting the objection, either electronically by using the on-line Objection Form available at
www.SeagateSecuritiesLitigation.com or electronically or in person at any location of the United
States District Court for the Northern District of California, or by mail with the Clerk’s Office at the
United States District Court for the Northern District of California at the address set forth below. All
