District Court for the Northern District of Illinois. The lawsuit alleges violations of the Fair
Labor Standards Act (&#147;FLSA&#148;) in a collective action under Sec. 216(b) of the FLSA and alleges
violations of Texas, Illinois, North Carolina, Georgia and California State Law in a class action.
The Lawsuit seeks back payment for non-payment of wages (including overtime), interest, liquidated
damages, penalties and attorney&#146;s fees. As used in this Notice, the term &#147;class members&#148; refers to
current and former JBSS non-union, non-office, hourly employees of JBSS who worked for JBSS from
February&nbsp;26, 2007 &#151; February&nbsp;25, 2011. You will be a class member if you submit a claim form for
payment agreeing to opt-in to the FLSA collective action. You also will be a class member if you
do not opt-out of the class action. Your options in responding to this Notice are more fully
described in Section&nbsp;D below. Specifically, the Class&nbsp;Representatives, Teresa Cardenas, Thomas
Young, Isaias Martinez, Jose Luis Vasquez, and Samuel Trinidad on behalf of all class members under
the FLSA and State laws allege that John B. Sanfilippo &#038; Son, Inc. (&#147;JBSS&#148;) rounded employees&#146;
punch-in and punch-out time incorrectly, which resulted in less time being paid to affected
employees and did not pay employees for all time worked. The lawsuit also claims that certain

by virtue of the physical layout of the Elgin facility and local pay practices and policies. JBSS
has denied and continues to deny the allegations in the Lawsuit and contends that its policies and
practices regarding compensation were proper and in compliance with the laws at all times. JBSS
wishes to settle this litigation, however, to avoid costly and time-consuming litigation but does
not admit to any wrongdoing or liability.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B>B. </B><U><B>THE PROPOSED SETTLEMENT</B></U><B>: </B>The Parties have agreed that the Defendant will pay <B>$2.6
Million </B>into a Settlement Fund for the FLSA collective action and the State law class action,
inclusive of all alleged unpaid wages, liquidated damages, penalties, interest, costs,
administration costs/translation costs and attorneys&#146; fees. Each class member shall be allocated a
proportionate share of the Settlement Fund after the Settlement Fund has been reduced by (1)
court-approved attorneys&#146; fees and costs; (2)&nbsp;court-approved incentive service awards to the class
representatives; (3)&nbsp;administrator/translation fees and costs, and (4)&nbsp;a $10.00 minimum payment for
each member of the Settlement Class. The Settlement fund as reduced by the foregoing amounts shall
be referred to as the &#147;Remaining Settlement Fund.&#148; Every Class&nbsp;Member will be allocated a share of
the Remaining Settlement Fund according to the formula below.
</DIV>



<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt; margin-left: 2%"><B>1. </B><U><B>Recovery to Class&nbsp;Members</B></U><B>: </B>If the settlement is approved by the court, the
settlement proceeds will be distributed in proportion to the relative amount of damages that
each class member may have recovered if we had continued, and ultimately prevailed in, the
litigation. Each participating member from Texas, North Carolina, California and
Georgia shall receive a flat payment of $10 plus any additional amount allocated by an
equitable formula based on the number of weeks worked for the Company, with each
participating member receiving one share for each week. Each participating member from
Illinois shall receive a flat payment of $10 plus any additional amount allocated by an
equitable formula based on the number of weeks worked for the Company, with each
participating member receiving one share for each week, plus an additional 1.6 shares for
every week worked from February&nbsp;26, 2007 until June&nbsp;30, 2009 by virtue of the
physical layout of the Elgin facility and local pay practices and policies.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt; margin-left: 2%">The class administrator will pay settlement distributions directly to eligible
claimants. Fifty percent (50%) of your settlement share will be taxable, and the
administrator will make appropriate withholdings from your distribution. The remaining
fifty-percent (50%) of your settlement share is allocated as interest, penalties and
liquidated damages, not wages. The remaining amount also will be taxable, but withholdings
will not be taken out of this amount. Therefore, in order to receive your share of the
settlement, you must complete and return the enclosed W-4 form, W-9 form, and State tax
designation form (if any) in addition to the claim form. After receiving your distribution,
we strongly encourage you to consult with an accountant or tax advisor.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt; margin-left: 2%"><B>2. </B><U><B>Incentive Service Awards and Attorney&#146;s Fees</B></U><B>: </B>Class counsel will request that
the Court approve an incentive award for Teresa Cardenas, Thomas Young and Isaias Martinez
for $10,000 each for being the three lead plaintiffs who initially brought this case
forward, had their depositions taken, attended at least one settlement conference, and
generally assisted counsel with pursuing it, and $2,500 each for the two newly added
plaintiffs Jose Luis Vasquez and Samuel Trinidad, who have generally assisted counsel but
who have not attended the settlement conferences or had their depositions taken.
Class&nbsp;Counsel will ask for 1/3 of the fund for its fees and expenses.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt; margin-left: 2%"><B>3. </B><U><B>Unclaimed Funds</B></U><B>: </B>The combined total of any unclaimed Settlement Fund
amounts and the amounts of the settlement checks that Settlement Class&nbsp;Members fail to cash
or negotiate within 180&nbsp;days of mailing, if any, shall be distributed and allocated with
sixty percent (60%) to JBSS and forty percent (40%) to a <U><I>cy pres</I></U> charity, Ronald
McDonald House Foundation.
