This matter having come before the Court on November 27, 2012 and on application of Lead Class Counsel for an award of attorneys' fees, reimbursement of litigation costs incurred in the Action and a Case Contribution Award for the Representative Plaintiff, having considered all papers filed and proceedings conducted, having found the Settlement of this Action to be fair, reasonable and adequate and otherwise being fully informed and good cause appearing: IT IS HEREBY ORDERED AND ADJUDGED:

The Attorneys' Fees and Expenses shall be paid to Plaintiff's Counsel in accordance with the terms of the Agreement.
