plaintiff have until the deadlines listed to petition the court; further details about the cases can be found at the links
provided.
Unum Group (NYSE:UNM)
Class Period: January 31, 2018 - May 2, 2018
Lead Plaintiff Deadline: August 13, 2018
The complaint alleges that the Company was experiencing a higher claims incidence for its long-term care
business; the Company was experiencing less favorable policy terminations in connection with its long-term care business; as such,
the Company’s long-term care business loss ratio would reach the upper 90% range; and as a result of the foregoing, Defendants’
statements about Unum’s business, operations, and prospects, including statements related to the Company’s long-term care reserves
and capital management plans, were materially false and/or misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis.

Newell Brands Inc. (NYSE:NWL)
Class Period: February 6, 2017 - January 24, 2018
Lead Plaintiff Deadline: August 20, 2018
According to the complaint, the Company’s retail channel was loaded with extremely high levels of unsold Newell
product; contrary to defendants’ representations, the build-up of Newell inventory in the retail channel was due to
Company-specific rather than macroeconomic reasons; as a result of the unusually high levels of unsold inventory in the retail
channel, Newell was exposed to a heightened risk that it would experience slower sales growth in future periods; and undisclosed
managerial and cultural differences in the legacy Newell and Jarden businesses had created significant discord that was having a
material adverse effect on the Company’s operating performance.
