Date: Sun, 23 Apr 2006 12:50:49 EDT



Just in case you did not know.
Read below.
In the class action titled Ramer and Neer et al v. MyFamily.com, Inc. and
Ancestry.com, a class was certified and a settlement has been reached. According
to the records of MyFamily.com, Inc., you are a member of the class and are
entitled to the settlement benefit. The benefit consists of full access to
the family history internet resources at Ancestry.com for the month of May,
2006, the equivalent of a month’s Ancestry World Deluxe subscription. This
benefit is available to you without any action on your part (you need not call or
email us), and without any payment or any other condition except following
the proper log on procedures described below This Court-ordered notice is to
inform you that the Class has been certified for settlement purposes, that you
may be a member of the Class, and that a settlement agreement, which has been
preliminarily approved by the Court, (the terms of which are described
briefly below) has been reached between MyFamily.com, Inc. and Ancestry.com (the
"Defendants") and the Class representatives. This notice is also sent to
inform you of the various steps you can take to participate in this settlement,
object to its terms or to remove yourself from the Class. If you fit the
profile above and do nothing, you will remain in the Class and your rights will be
determined by any judgment entered in the case.
The access period will begin midnight April 30 and run until midnight May 31,
2006. It is only available for that time period and cannot be delayed or
activated at another time. To access the subscription you will use the user name
you use or used as an Ancestry subscriber. When you log in at Ancestry.com,
you will be asked for the password that you associated with that user name.
If you currently have any active Ancestry.com subscription or subscriptions,
it/they will be extended for 31 days so that you enjoy the value of this class
benefit, that is, the next renewal date will be moved out 31 days.
If you still have an active Ancestry.com subscription for which you made an
annual commitment but are billed monthly, that subscription has converted into
a true monthly subscription, that is, it may be cancelled without penalty or
further payment to the end of any monthly anniversary by following the
cancellation process described in the Terms and Conditions at Ancestry.com.
Follow the terms and conditions link in the footer of any page at that site.
