(“NISSAN” OR THE “COMPANY”) AMERICAN DEPOSITARY RECEIPTS (“ADRS”) ON THE OVER-THE-COUNTER MARKET (“OTC MARKET”) AND ALL CITIZENS AND RESIDENTS OF THE UNITED STATES WHO, BETWEEN MAY 11, 2014 AND NOVEMBER 16, 2018, INCLUSIVE, PURCHASED OR OTHERWISE ACQUIRED NISSAN COMMON STOCK (“CLASS” OR “CLASS MEMBERS”)

THIS NOTICE WAS AUTHORIZED BY THE COURT. IT IS NOT A LAWYER SOLICITATION. PLEASE READ THIS NOTICE CAREFULLY AND IN ITS ENTIRETY.

YOU ARE HEREBY NOTIFIED that a hearing will be held on September 19, 2022, at 2:30 p.m., before the Honorable William J. Campbell Jr. at the United States District Court, Middle District of Tennessee, Fred D. Thompson United States Courthouse, 719 Church Street, Nashville, TN 37203 to determine whether: (1) the proposed settlement (the “Settlement”) of the above-captioned Litigation as set forth in the Stipulation of Settlement (“Stipulation”)1 for $36,000,000 in cash should be approved by the Court as fair, reasonable and adequate; (2) the Judgment as provided under the Stipulation should be entered dismissing the Litigation with prejudice; (3) to award Lead Counsel attorneys’ fees and expenses out of the Settlement Fund (as defined in the Notice of Proposed Settlement of Class Action (“Notice”), which is discussed below) and, if so, in what amount; (4) to pay Plaintiffs for their costs and expenses in representing the Class out of the Settlement Fund and, if so, in what amount; and (5) the Plan of Allocation should be approved by the Court as fair, reasonable and adequate.
