For purposes of this Order, the terms used herein shall have the samemeanings as set forth in the Settlement Agreement dated March 10, 2014 (the"Settlement Agreement") (ECF No. 147-3).2. Pursuant to and in full compliance with Rule 23 of the Federal Rulesof Civil Procedure, the Court finds and concludes that due and adequate notice wasdirected to all Persons and entities who are Class Members, including individualnotice to those who could be identified with reasonable effort, advising them of thePlan of Distribution and of their right to object thereto, and a full and fairopportunity was accorded to all Persons and entities who are members of the Class to be heard with respect to the Plan of Distribution. 3. The Court hereby finds and concludes that the formula for the calculation of the claims of Authorized Claimants which is set forth in the Notice of Pendency of Class Action and Proposed Settlement, Motion for Attorneys' Fees and Settlement Fairness Hearing (the "Notice") sent to Class Members provides a fair and reasonable basis upon which to allocate the proceeds of the Net SettlementFund established by the Settlement Agreement among Class Members, with dueconsideration having been given to administrative convenience and necessity.4.

ORDER AWARDING ATTORNEYS' FEES AND EXPENSES AND AN AWARD TO LEAD PLAINTIFFS PURSUANT TO 15 U.S.C. 78U-4(A)(4). IT IS HEREBY ORDERED, ADJUDGED, AND DECREED that: 1. All of the capitalized terms used herein shall have the same meaningsas set forth in the Settlement Agreement dated March 10, 2014 (the "SettlementAgreement") (ECF No. 147-3). 2. The Court has jurisdiction over the subject matter of this application and all matters relating thereto, including all members of the Class who have not timely and validly requested exclusion.3. Pursuant to and in full compliance with Rule 23 of the Federal Rulesof Civil Procedure, the Court finds and concludes that due and adequate notice of Lead Plaintiffs' motion for an award of attorneys' fees and expenses was directed to all Persons and entities who are Class Members, including individual notice to those who could be identified with reasonable effort, advising them of the application for fees and expenses and of their right to object thereto, and a full and fair opportunity was accorded to all Persons and entities who are members of the Class to be heard with respect to the motion for fees and expenses. 4. The Court hereby awards Lead Counsel attorneys' fees of 30% of the Settlement Fund and expenses of $527,109.70, together with the interest earned thereon for the same time period and at the same rate as that earned on the Settlement Fund until paid. Said fees shall be allocated among Lead Plaintiffs' counsel by Lead Counsel in a manner which, in their good-faithjudgment, reflects each counsel's contribution to the institution, prosecution, and resolution of the Action. The Court finds that the amount of fees awarded is fair and reasonable under the "percentage-of recovery" method considering, among other things that: (a) the requested fee is consistent with percentage fees negotiated ex ante in the private market for legal services; (b) the contingent nature of the Action favors a fee award of 30%; (c) the Settlement Fund of $11. 7 5 million was not likely at theoutset of the Action; (d) the awarded fee is in accord with Eleventh Circuit authority and consistent with empirical data regarding fee awards in cases of this size; (e) the quality legal services provided by Lead Counsel produced the settlement; (f) the Lead Plaintiffs appointed by the Court to represent the Class reviewed and approved the requested fee; (g) the stakes of the litigation favor the fee awarded; and (h) the reaction of the Class to the fee request supports the fee awarded. 5. The Court finds that, pursuant to 15 U.S.C. § 78u-4(a)(4), an award of $8,042.01 to Labourers' Pension Fund of Central and Eastern Canada and $7,158.25 to Sheet Metal Workers' National Pension Fund is appropriate. 6. The awarded attorneys' fees and expenses, and interest earned thereon, shall be paid to Lead Counsel and each of the Lead Plaintiffs from the Settlement Fund immediately after the date this Order is executed subject to the terms, conditions, and obligations of the Settlement Agreement, which terms, conditions, and obligations are incorporated herein.
