READ THIS CAREFULLY – YOUR RIGHTS MAY BE
AFFECTED BY THE SETTLEMENT OF THIS CLASS ACTION
You have reached the KSL Recreation Corporation Settlement information website.
This website was designed to provide you with important information regarding
the proposed Settlement.
You are not being sued. The class action lawsuit alleges that Hotel Companies
failed to inform guests sufficiently about the Resort Fee that certain Resorts
imposed. The amount of the Resort Fee varied by resort and over time, and the
services and facilities covered by the fee also varied by resort; and, for
purposes of the proposed Settlement, the amount of the Resort Fee has ranged on
average from $7.50 to $20.00. The lawsuits allege that the Hotel Companies
breached the contract with guests and engaged in unfair and deceptive business
practices by not providing adequate notice of and information about the Resort
Fee. The Hotel Companies deny each and every allegation and believe that they
have strong factual and legal defenses to the claims. Lead Class Counsel has
informed the Court that, after a thorough investigation and analysis of the
facts and the law and after consideration of (1) the substantial and certain
benefits provided by the Settlement and (2) the risks and delays of class
action litigation, the Class Representative and Lead Class Counsel have reached
a Settlement with Hotel Companies that they believe is fair, reasonable, and
adequate, is in the best interests of the Class, and fairly resolves the claims
alleged. The Court has preliminarily approved the proposed Settlement of this
class action. On January 16, 2007, the Court will hold a Final Approval Hearing
to determine whether to finally approve the Settlement.
