BASIC INFORMATION 1. Why was this Notice issued? A court authorized this Notice because you have a right to know about the proposed settlement of this class action lawsuit. This Notice explains the lawsuit, the settlement, your legal rights and options, what benefits are available, and who can get them. Judge Ronald F. Frazier of the Superior Court of California, San Diego County is overseeing this class action. The case is known as McDuffee, et al. v. Sports Warehouse, Case No. 37-2017-00001781-CU-BT-NC (the Action ). The person who filed this lawsuit is called the Plaintiff and the company he sued, Sports Warehouse, is called the Defendant. 2. What is this lawsuit about? The lawsuit alleges that Sports Warehouse engaged in a scheme of false price comparison advertising during the period beginning from January 17, 2013 through October 23, 2017. Plaintiff claims that Sports Warehouse s conduct violated California law prohibiting advertising goods for sale as discounted from former prices which are false and prohibiting misleading statements about the existence and amount of price reductions. Plaintiff alleges claims on a class basis for the following causes of action: (1) Violation of California s Unfair Competition Law ( UCL ), California Business & Professions Code section 17200, et seq., (2) Violation of California s False Advertising Law, Cal. Bus. & Prof. Code 17500, et seq. ( FAL ), (3) Violation of California s Consumers Legal Remedies Act, California Civil Code 1750, et seq. ( CLRA ), (4) Breach of Contract, (5) Breach of Express Warranty, and (6) Unjust Enrichment. Sports Warehouse denies that it used false comparison advertising, denies allegations of wrongdoing or liability, and denies that the Plaintiff or the class has been harmed in any way. 3. What is a class action? In a class action, one or more people called class representatives sue on behalf of other people with similar claims. Together, these people are called a class or class members. One court resolves the issues for all class members, except for those who exclude themselves from the Settlement Class, as explained below. 4. Why is there a settlement? The Court did not decide in favor of the Plaintiff, the Settlement Class, or Sports Warehouse. Instead, the parties agreed to a settlement. This way, they avoid the cost and burden of a trial and the people affected can get benefits. After diligent investigation and two mediation sessions, Plaintiff and his attorneys believe the settlement is the best outcome for all Settlement Class Members. The Court has granted preliminary approval of the settlement. WHO IS INCLUDED IN THE SETTLEMENT 5. How do I know whether I am part of the settlement? You are included in the settlement as a Settlement Class Member if you (1) purchased merchandise from Sports Warehouse that was advertised with a price comparison (2) were a citizen of the State of California at the time of the purchase, and (3) made your purchase between January 17, 2013 and October 23, 2017 (the Settlement Class Period ). Page 4 of 9

THE SETTLEMENT BENEFITS WHAT YOU GET IF YOU QUALIFY 6. What does the settlement provide? Sports Warehouse has agreed to pay $3,000,000 into a fund (the Settlement Fund ) to be used, in part, to make payments to members of the Settlement Class who submit approved Claim Forms. This amount also includes courtapproved reasonable attorneys fees and costs, the class representative enhancement payment, and the notice and administration costs. After deducting Court-approved attorneys fees and costs; enhancement payment to the Class Representative; and the costs of settlement notice and administration, the balance of the Settlement Fund called the Net Settlement Fund will be distributed to Settlement Class Members who submit valid and timely Claim Forms. In addition to the Settlement Fund provided to members of the Settlement Class, and as a direct result of this Action, Sports Warehouse agrees to comply with certain injunctive relief, change its business practices, and implement a compliance program. Sports Warehouse has incurred in excess of $160,000 by, among other things, modifying software programs and related websites, investigating its advertisement practices, training employees, and retaining consultants. Moreover, Sports Warehouse has stopped using price comparison advertisements in selling its products. As a further direct result of this action, to the extent that Sports Warehouse decides to use price comparison advertisements in the future, it will implement a compliance program, which will consist of periodic (no less than once a year) monitoring, training, and auditing to ensure compliance with Federal and California price comparison laws. The value of this compliance program is estimated at an additional $250,000 over a ten-year period. 7. How much will my payment be? The Net Settlement Fund shall be made available to Settlement Class Members who submit valid and timely Claim Forms ( Authorized Claimants ). The Claims Administrator will review Sports Warehouse s sales and transactions data to calculate the total number of compensable qualifying purchases for all known and identifiable Settlement Class Members during the Settlement Class Period. The respective number of compensable qualifying purchases for each Settlement Class Member will then be divided by the total compensable qualifying purchases for all Settlement Class Members, resulting in a payment ratio for each Settlement Class Member. Each Settlement Class Member s payment ratio will then be multiplied by the Net Settlement Fund to determine his or her estimated settlement payment from the Net Settlement Fund. If not all Settlement Class Members submit timely and valid Claim Forms, then the settlement payments to each Authorized Claimant shall be increased pro rata based on his or her number of compensable qualifying purchases. Authorized Claimants may elect to receive their individual settlement payments either as a cash payment by check or by ACH/direct deposit. An option to make the election between check or ACH/direct deposit will be provided on the Claim Form. To summarize, the amount of your cash payment will be determined based on the total number of qualifying purchases you made during the Settlement Class Period in relation to the total number of qualifying purchases made by all Settlement Class Members during the Settlement Class Period who submit approved Claim Forms. HOW TO GET A SETTLEMENT PAYMENT SUBMITTING A CLAIM FORM 8. How do I get a payment from the settlement? To qualify for payment, Settlement Class Members must submit a Claim Form. A Claim Form is accessible by clicking HERE. Read the instructions on the Claim Form carefully, fill out all the information requested, and submit it Page 5 of 9

electronically by 11:59 p.m. Pacific Time on May 21, 2018. You will need your passcode and CPT ID number provided on your e-mail or postcard notice to access and submit your Claim Form. 9. When would I get my settlement payment? The Court will hold a final approval hearing on June 15, 2018. If the Court approves the settlement and there are no appeals, settlement payments will be distributed within thirty (30) days. However, it is always uncertain whether appeals will be filed and, if so, how long it will take to resolve them. Settlement payments will be distributed as soon as possible, after the Court grants final approval to the settlement and any appeals are resolved. 10. What rights am I giving up to get a payment and stay in the Settlement Class? Unless you exclude yourself (opt-out), you are staying in the Settlement Class. If the settlement is approved and becomes final, all of the Court s orders will apply to you and legally bind you. You will not be able to sue or continue to sue Sports Warehouse about the legal issues resolved and released by this settlement. 11. What claims are being released? Upon entry of the final approval order, all Settlement Class Members who did not opt-out of the settlement, for and in consideration of the terms and undertakings herein, the sufficiency and fairness of which are acknowledged, release and forever discharge Sports Warehouse (and each of its current and former parents, subsidiaries, affiliates, controlled companies, officers, directors, shareholders employees, predecessors, successors, assigns, insurers, and attorneys ) (the Released Parties ) from any and all claims, demands, debts, liabilities, actions, and causes of action of every kind and nature, actual or potential, suspected or unsuspected, direct or indirect, contingent or fixed, that were asserted in the Action, or that could have been asserted but were not asserted in the Action or in any other court or forum, whether known or unknown, on the basis of, connected with, arising out of, or related in whole or in part to any or all of the alleged acts, omissions, facts, matters, transactions, circumstances, and occurrences that were alleged, asserted, described, set forth or referred to in the Action, whether such allegations were or could have been based on common law or equity, or on any statute, rule, regulation, order, or law, whether federal, state, or local, including, without limitation, claims under federal or state unfair competition and false advertising laws as pertains to the Released Parties between January 17, 2013 to October 23, 2017 (the Released Claims ). More detail about the claims you will be releasing, including the provisions of California Civil Code 1542 is described in Section 11 of the Settlement Agreement available at www.sportswarehousesettlement.com. THE LAWYERS REPRESENTING YOU 12. Do I have a lawyer in this case? Yes. The Court has ordered that CounselOne, P.C. ( Class Counsel ) shall represent the interests of Settlement Class Members. This law firm and their lawyers are experienced in handling similar cases. You will not be charged for these lawyers.

Class Counsel will request the Court for an award of attorneys fees of up to 33-1/3 percent of the Settlement Fund and actual costs of up to $30,000 from the Settlement Fund. The Court will make the final decision as to the amount to be paid to Class Counsel. Page 6 of 9

14. How much will the Class Representative receive for his efforts in bringing this Action? The Class Representative will request a service award of up to $5,000 from the Settlement Fund for his services as class representative and his efforts in bringing and helping to prosecute the Action. The Court will make the final decision as to the amount to be paid to the Class Representative. EXCLUDING YOURSELF FROM THE SETTLEMENT If you want to keep the right to sue or continue to sue Sports Warehouse about the legal claims in this case, and you do not want to receive a payment from this settlement, you must take steps to get out of the settlement.

18. How do I tell the Court that I do not agree with the settlement? If you are a Settlement Class Member, you can object to the settlement if you do not agree with it or a portion of it.

Your objection must be in writing and contain: (1) the word Objection at the top of the document; (2) the name of this lawsuit (McDuffee, et al. v.

Orshansky Justin Kachadoorian Scott E. Brown CounselOne, P.C. 9301 Wilshire Boulevard Suite 650 Beverly Hills, CA 90210 Defense Counsel Alejandro S. Angulo Bradley A. Chapin Golsa Honarfar Rutan & Tucker, LLP 611 Anton Boulevard, 14th Floor Costa Mesa, CA 92626 19. May I come to Court to speak about my objection at the Final Approval Hearing? Yes. At the Final Approval Hearing, the Court will be available to hear any objections and arguments concerning the fairness of the settlement. As described above, you or your attorney may, but do not have to, speak at the Final Approval Hearing. However, if you or your attorney intend to speak at the Final Approval Hearing, you may only do so if (a) you have timely filed your written objection with the Court and timely mailed your written objection to Class Counsel and Defense Counsel and (b) followed the procedures set forth above for notifying the Court and counsel that you intend to speak at the Final Approval Hearing. If you have requested exclusion from the settlement, however, you may not speak at the Final Approval Hearing. 20. What is the difference between objecting to the settlement and asking to be excluded from it? Objecting is simply telling the Court that you do not agree with something about the settlement. You can object only if you remain a Settlement Class Member (that is, do not exclude yourself). Excluding yourself is telling the Court that you do not want to be part of the settlement. If you exclude yourself, you cannot object because the settlement no longer affects you. Page 8 of 9
