ORDER GRANTING FINAL APPROVAL
ROBERT S. LASNIK, District Judge.
WHEREAS, Plaintiffs and Defendant Flight Services and Systems, Inc. ("FSS") have agreed to a settlement in the above-captioned class action, and
WHEREAS, the Court, having considered the proposed settlement, the remainder of the file, and the arguments of Parties' counsel,
IT IS HEREBY FOUND, ORDERED, ADJUDGED, AND DECREED THAT:
1) The Court hereby finally and unconditionally certifies the Class defined below:
All employees of the Defendant who are alleged to have been either Hospitality Workers or Transportation Workers and who worked one or more hours within the City of SeaTac at any time during the time period from January 1, 2014, to February 14, 2016, and who were paid less than the prevailing minimum wage prescribed by City of SeaTac Ordinance 7.45.050, i.e., a base rate of $15.00 per hour in 2014 and $15.24 in 2015 and 2016.
2) The Settlement Agreement, which requires FSS to pay Five Hundred, Forty Thousand Dollars and Zero Cents ($540,000.00) as consideration to Class Members, was the result of arm's length negotiations between FSS and Class Counsel. The Settlement Agreement is fair and reasonable.
3) The Court approves the proposed class action settlement and orders the following: (a) FSS is directed to fund the settlement, (b) FSS is authorized to distribute the Settlement Funds, and (c) FSS is directed to distribute the attorney's fees and incentive awards as provided in the "Order Granting Motion for Attorney's Fees and Incentive Awards," of even date.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
