SANTA MONICA, Calif., Oct. 27 /PRNewswire/ -- The following statement is being issued by Milstein, Adelman & Kreger, LLP and Wasserman, Comden, Casselman & Esensten, LLP regarding the ExtenZe class action settlement.

A proposed class action settlement has been reached involving the manufacturer of a male enhancement product called ExtenZe.  The case is known as Williams, et al. v. Biotab Nutraceuticals, Inc., et al., Case No. BC414808 (consolidated with BC415918) ("the Action") Los Angeles County Superior Court.  The lawsuit alleges that Biotab Nutraceuticals, Inc. ("Biotab"), the manufacturer of ExtenZe, and certain individuals made false claims in certain marketing, promotional and advertising materials saying that ExtenZe would increase penis size.  Biotab and the other defendants deny they did anything wrong.

Who is a Class Member?  The Class consists of all persons who purchased ExtenZe in the United States between May 29, 2005 and October 25, 2010.  

What is this case about? If the settlement is approved, Defendants will be enjoined from making certain representations about their product, including being prevented from claiming that it will make the penis larger absent independent scientific substantiation. Further, a cash fund of $6,000,000 will be set up along with an additional $6,000,000 in retail value of ExtenZe NASCAR merchandise. A full description of the benefits can be found on www.extenzesettlement.com. Class Members who submit a valid Claim Form may choose a refund on the previously purchased product or choose up to $176.94 worth of ExtenZe NASCAR racing apparel.

Get out of the lawsuit.  If you ask to be excluded, you will NOT receive money or benefits if the Settlement is approved, but you keep any rights to sue Defendants separately about the same legal claims in this lawsuit.  If you intend to bring your own lawsuit against Defendants, you should exclude yourself from the Class.  If you want to exclude yourself from the class action, you must formally request to exclude yourself by sending a letter to: Williams, et al. v.
