The Supreme Court of Victoria has ordered that you receive this notice because you may be a Group Member in the Star Class Action.

IT IS IMPORTANT THAT YOU READ THIS NOTICE CAREFULLY BECAUSE IT MAY AFFECT YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS.

You may do one of three things in response to this notice:

1.OPTION 1 - REGISTER. You must register by 4:00pm (AEST) on Thursday 26 September 2024 in order to be eligible to receive any compensation if there is a settlement reached at the mediation. To participate in any such settlement, you must register your interest before the deadline.

2.OPTION 2 - OPT OUT. If you do not want your rights determined by the Star Class Action, you must opt out by 4:00pm (AEST) Thursday 26 September 2024. If you opt out, your claim will not be resolved as part of the Star Class Action but you may pursue such rights as you may have independently.

3.OPTION 3 - DO NOTHING. If you do nothing, you will remain a Group Member in the class action but, subject to further order of the Court, you will not be permitted to participate in any settlement reached at mediation or by Friday 16 May 2025 or any subsequent date ordered by the Court. This is because the Court has ordered that, if an in-principle settlement is reached between the Plaintiff and Defendant at the Court Ordered Mediation or by Friday 16 May 2025 or any subsequent date ordered by the Court, subject to any further order of the Court, Group Members who neither opted out nor registered (i.e. "do nothing") by the Class Deadline will be bound by the settlement reached but will not be able to seek any benefit under that settlement. The Court may make a further order to extend the period during which only registered Group Members are permitted to seek any benefit under a settlement to any subsequent date ordered by the Court. If such an order is made, please note that individual notice of that extension may not be distributed to Group Members.
