A settlement has been proposed in a class action about the alleged artificial inflation of the price of Bridgestone publicly traded common stock and American Depositary Receipts (ADRs) during the Class Period of March 30, 2000 to and including August 31, 2000. The settlement will provide a settlement fund of thirty million dollars ($30,000,000) for the benefit of investors who purchased Bridgestone publicly traded common stock or ADRs during the class period.
If you purchased Bridgestone Corporation ("Bridgestone") publicly traded common stock or ADRs during the class period from March 30, 2000 to and including August 31, 2000, and are not otherwise excluded from the Class, then you could receive a payment from the proposed settlement of a securities class action. You are a Class Member if you purchased Bridgestone publicly traded common stock or ADRs during the period from March 30, 2000 to and including August 31, 2000, and were damaged thereby.
