The purpose of the Notice is to inform you of: (1) the pendency of this class action lawsuit (the “Litigation”) against the Defendants; (2) how it might affect your rights; and (3) what steps you may take in relation to it. The Notice is not an expression of any opinion by the Court as to the merits of any of the claims or defenses asserted by any party in this Litigation or whether Defendants engaged in any wrongdoing.

The Notice provides a summary of the Litigation, describes who is eligible to be included in the Class, the effect of participating in this class action, and explains how to request exclusion from the Class. Your legal rights may be affected whether you act or do not act. These rights and options–and the deadlines to exercise them–are explained in the Notice. Please read the Notice carefully.

A brief background of this case is provided on page 2 of the Notice and is also summarized on this website. We do not have any more information regarding the background of this case beyond what is provided in the Notice and posted case documents.

In a class action, the named plaintiff acts as a “class representative” and sues on behalf of his or herself and other people who have similar claims. This group of people is called the “class,” and the people in the class are called “class members.” One court resolves the issues for all class members, except for people who exclude themselves (“opt out”) from the class. Judge Charles F. Adams of the Superior Court of the State of California, County of Santa Clara, is in charge of this case. The case is In re HPE Enterprise Services–DXC Technology Co. Merger Litigation, No. 19CV353132 (Cal. Super. Ct., Santa Clara Cnty.). The Court’s decisions will apply to all Class members, but not those who exclude themselves by opting out of the Class.

Plaintiffs are asking the Court to award Class members monetary damages and other relief in an amount to be proven at trial, including interest thereon. Plaintiffs further seek rescission, disgorgement, or such other equitable or injunctive relief as deemed appropriate by the Court. Defendants dispute the availability of monetary damages or equitable or injunctive relief.

You are a Class member if you acquired DXC common stock in direct exchange for CSC securities in the April 1, 2017 Merger Exchange.

Excluded from the Class are Defendants and their families; the officers, directors, and affiliates of Defendants, at all relevant times; members of Defendants’ immediate families and their legal representatives, heirs, successors, or assigns; and any entity in which Defendants have or had a controlling interest.

If you do not want to be a member of the Class, you must send a signed letter by U.S. Mail saying you want to be excluded from the Class and include the information listed on page 3 of the Notice. To be valid, opt-out requests must be received no later than September 16, 2024.

Plaintiffs must prove their claims against Defendants at trial to prevail in this Litigation. Defendants will have an opportunity to present their defenses before any ruling on the merits of Plaintiffs’ claims. The trial date is currently set for February 19, 2026.

During the trial, the Court or a jury will hear all the evidence to help them reach a decision about whether Defendants or Plaintiffs are right about the claims in this lawsuit. There is no guarantee that Plaintiffs will win or that they will get any benefits for the Class.

Please check this website for up-to-date information on the scheduling of trial and other important dates in this matter, as they may change over time.

No, you do not need to attend the trial. Class Counsel will present the case for Plaintiffs and the Class, and Defendants will present their defenses.
