Settlement of Litigation

On July 13, 2012, LG Display has reached settlements in a previously disclosed consumer class action and separate actions filed by the attorneys general of eight states (Arkansas, California, Florida, Michigan, Missouri, New York, West Virginia, and Wisconsin) that alleged violation of U.S. federal and/or state antitrust and consumer protection laws involving TFT-LCD panels pending before the United States District Court for the Northern District of California (Case No. 3:07-MD-1827-SI).

LG Display, without admitting liability, has agreed to pay a total of $380M to resolve the consumer class action and eight actions filed by the attorneys general to avoid the expense and burden of protracted litigation.

The settlement, which is subject to court approval, concludes the consumer class action that was initiated in 2007 and the various attorneys general actions filed in 2010 or 2011.

Purchases of TFT-LCD products covered by this settlement include monitors, laptops, and TVs that contain TFT-LCD panels produced by LG Display or other defendants that were purchased in certain 24 states from January 1999 through December 2006.

Most of the settlement amount was previously reflected in the company’s financial statement, and the remainder was recognized in the financial statement in the second quarter of 2012.
