The case has been litigated since November 2023. According to the operative complaint, Plaintiff alleges that the inaccuracies in Expensify’s registration statement at the time of its initial public offering violated Sections 11 and 15 of the Securities Act of 1933.
Defendants have denied and continue to deny these allegations, that they committed any act or omission giving rise to any liability or violation of the law, and that any of the Settlement Class’s purported losses were caused by any alleged misstatement in Expensify’s registration statement. The Settlement will resolve the lawsuit and the Released Claims as to the Defendants and other Released Defendants’ Parties. Plaintiff and the Settlement Class are represented by Lead Counsel, who may be reached by contacting: Adam M. Apton, Levi & Korsinsky, LLP, 33 Whitehall Street, 27th Floor, New York, NY 10004, (212) 363-7500.
If you are a Settlement Class Member, in order to share in the distribution of the Net Settlement Fund, you must submit a Proof of Claim that is postmarked or received by the Claims Administrator no later than June 29, 2026, establishing that you are entitled to recovery. Unless you submit a written exclusion request, you will be bound by any Judgment rendered in the Action whether or not you make a claim.
If you want to be excluded from the Settlement Class, you must submit to the Claims Administrator a request for exclusion, in accordance with the procedures set forth in the Notice, so that it is received no later than June 2, 2026. If you decide to exclude yourself from the Settlement Class and wish to file your own individual lawsuit based on the Released Plaintiff’s Claims, Defendants may argue that you face a time bar under applicable statutes of limitation or repose. Any Settlement Class Member considering a request for exclusion should discuss these risks with an appropriate legal advisor. All members of the Settlement Class who have not requested exclusion from the Settlement Class will be bound by any Judgment entered in the Action pursuant to the Settlement Stipulation.
If you are a Settlement Class Member and do not exclude yourself, you can object to the Settlement, Plan of Allocation, or Lead Counsel’s request for an Attorney Fee Award and compensatory Award to Plaintiff in the manner and form explained in the detailed Notice and received no later than June 2, 2026.
Any questions regarding the Settlement should be directed to Lead Counsel for the Settlement Class.
