`
`REPLY TO END-PAYOR PLAINTIFFS’ OPPOSITION TO
`SUR-REPLY MEMORANDUM AND REQUEST FOR SPECIAL MASTER
`
`Contrary to Settlement Class Counsel’s misleading and grossly exaggerated
`
`assertion in its Opposition (ECF No. 2232), counsel for Enterprise Fleet Management
`
`(“EFM”) has claims on file on behalf of EFM customer lessees for exactly 3,964 of the
`
`same vehicles claimed by EFM. Declaration of Emma K. Burton attached as Exhibit
`
`A ¶4. In an effort to resolve this dispute in October of last year, EFM offered to
`
`1
`
`
`
`Case 2:12-md-02311-SFC-RSW ECF No. 2233, PageID.40137 Filed 09/19/22 Page 3 of 4
`
`Settlement Class Counsel to forgo any recovery for vehicles for which a valid, competing
`
`claim was timely filed by a qualifying lessee to the same vehicle, which would include
`
`all 3,964 of these vehicles. Id. ¶5. In other words, under the proposal that EFM made
`
`to Settlement Class Counsel over 10 months ago, there would be no duplicate recovery
`
`based on the same vehicle. Settlement Class Counsel continues to reject EFM’s
`
`proposal.
