NEW YORK, May 20, 2021 /PRNewswire/ --

IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE DISTRICT OF DELAWARE

SUMMARY NOTICE OF PENDENCY OF CLASS ACTION

This notice is for: 

(1) All persons and entities who purchased or otherwise acquired Navient Corporation's ("Navient") common stock or Navient call options, or sold Navient put options, from April 17, 2014 through September 29, 2015, inclusive—and who were damaged thereby (the "Exchange Act Class"); and

(2) All persons and entities who purchased or otherwise acquired Navient's 5.000% Senior Notes due 2020 (CUSIP 63938CAA6), 5.875% Senior Notes due 2024 (CUSIP 63938CAB4), and 5.875% Senior Notes due 2021 (CUSIP 63938CAC2) (collectively, "Navient Senior Notes") from November 6, 2014 through December 28, 2015, inclusive—and who were damaged thereby (the "Securities Act Class," and together with the Exchange Act Class, the "Classes").

For the avoidance of doubt, the Exchange Act Class includes all persons and entities who received shares as part of Navient's formation through a spin-off from Sallie Mae.

YOU ARE HEREBY NOTIFIED, pursuant to Rule 23 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure and an Order of the United States District Court for the District of Delaware, that the above-captioned action (the "Action") has been certified to proceed as a class action on behalf of the Classes as defined above.  

In the Action, Lead Plaintiffs allege that Defendants, in violation of the federal securities laws, made numerous false or misleading statements about the business operations and financial results of Navient, one of the country's largest servicers of student loans, which caused the prices of Navient securities to be artificially inflated and caused damages to investors when they ultimately learned the truth about Defendants' prior misrepresentations.  Defendants deny all of Lead Plaintiffs' allegations, and deny any wrongdoing or violation of law.  Please note:  at this time, there is no judgment, settlement, or monetary recovery.  Trial in this Action is currently scheduled for January 24, 2022.

IF YOU ARE A MEMBER OF ONE OR BOTH OF THE CERTIFIED CLASSES (A "CLASS MEMBER"), YOUR RIGHTS WILL BE AFFECTED BY THIS ACTION.  A full printed Notice of Pendency of Class Action (the "Notice") is currently being mailed to persons who have been identified as potential Class Members.  If you have not yet received the full printed Notice, you may obtain a copy of the Notice by downloading it from www.NavientSecuritiesLitigation.com or by contacting the Notice Administrator at:
