CASE NO. 4:09-CV-56 (CDL)

DECLARATION OF JAY PLAYTER

I, Jay Playter, pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1746, hereby declare as follows:

1. I am an adult individual over the age of eighteen years and am competent to make

this Declaration. I hold the position of Pricing Analyst at Sprint and have been in this position

since 2013. I make this declaration based on my personal knowledge of the information and

records available to me as they are kept in the ordinary course of business; information obtained

from other employees upon whom I regularly rely in the ordinary course of business; and/or my

general knowledge.

2. As one of my duties as Pricing Analyst, I am responsible for working with

Sprint’s Legal Department to implement the Court-approved Notice Plan (D.E. 79).

3. Gilardi & Co. LLC (“Gilardi”), the Court-appointed claims administrator, is

responsible for implementing the majority of the Notice Plan. Sprint, however, was obligated to:

(i) disseminate the Invoice Notice to active and current Sprint consumer customers; and (ii)

ensure that the Summary Notice was published on Sprint’s website.

4. To date, Sprint has provided data files to Gilardi containing contact information

for all former or non-active customers who, through a series of data pulls accomplished by

Sprint’s IT personnel, were determined to be members of the Fee Notice Sub-Class.

5. Additionally, during the December Sprint billing cycles, approximately between

December 1, 2013 and December 31, 2013, Sprint caused the Invoice Notice to appear in the

Sprint subscriber billing statements for one full monthly billing cycle. The Invoice Notice

advised all then-active and current Sprint consumer customers (referred to as ‘Individual Liable’)

consisting of approximately 11,640,000 million accounts (representing many more lines of

service to persons and entities) of the settlement. The Invoice Notice included both English and

Spanish translations and included a bill message and the Summary Notice. A true and correct

copy of the Invoice Notice is attached as Exhibit A.

6. On November 8, 2013, Sprint published the Summary Notice at

www.sprint.com/legal/surcharge_settlement.html. The Summary Notice, which has remained on

the website continuously since November 8, 2013, directs potential Settlement Class members to

both the settlement website (www.sprintsurchargesettlement.com) and the toll-free number (1-

866-571-4407) established by Gilardi. A true and correct copy of the Summary Notice that was

published is attached as Exhibit B.

7. Sprint’s customer care representatives were also instructed to direct callers

inquiring about the settlement to both the settlement website

(www.sprintsurchargesettlement.com) and the toll-free number (1-866-571-4407) established by

Gilardi.

8. To date, Sprint’s costs in implementing the Notice Plan, including fees owed to

Gilardi, total approximately $583,000.
