A Court authorized this Notice because you have a right to know about the proposed Settlement of this class action and about all of your options before the Court decides whether to grant final approval of the Settlement. This Notice explains the Action, your legal rights, what benefits are available, and who can receive them. The Action is called Howard, et al. v. Brockton Neighborhood Health Center, Inc., Case No. 2483-cv-01076 pending in the Plymouth County Superior Court for the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. The people who filed this Action are called the “Plaintiffs” and the entity they sued, Brockton Neighborhood Health Center, Inc. (“Brockton”), is called the “Defendant.” 2. What is this Action about? Between November 1 and November 3, 2024, the Defendant was impacted by a cybersecurity incident on the Defendant’s network and systems on or around November 1 to November 3, 2024, which may have impacted the Private Information of current and former patients (the “Data Incident”). Private Information means any information that could be used to identify, locate, or contact a person (whether on its own or in combination with other information). On or around December, 2024, the Defendant began notifying potentially impacted individuals about the Data Incident. The Plaintiffs assert claims for negligence, breach of implied contract, invasion of privacy, and unjust enrichment. The Defendant denies all of the Plaintiffs’ claims and maintains that they did not do anything wrong. 3. What is a class action? In a class action, one or more individuals sue on behalf of other people with similar claims. These individuals who sue are known as “Settlement Class Representatives” or Plaintiffs. Together, the people included in the class action are called a “Settlement Class” or “Settlement Class Members.” One court resolves the lawsuit for all Settlement Class Members, except for those who exclude themselves (sometimes called, “opting out”) from a settlement. In this Settlement, the Settlement Class Representatives are Barbara Howard, Brandi Freeman, Tiffany Marks, I.M., a minor by and through his or her legal guardian, Tiffany Marks, and Felicia Stanley. 4. Why is there a Settlement? The Court has not decided in favor of the Plaintiffs or Defendant. The Defendant denies all claims and contends that they have not violated any laws. The Plaintiffs and Defendant agreed to a Settlement to avoid the costs and risks of a trial, and through the Settlement, Settlement Class Members are eligible to claim Settlement Benefits. The Plaintiffs and their attorneys, who also represent Settlement Class Members as “Settlement Class Counsel,” believe the Settlement is in the best interests of all Settlement Class Members. WHO IS IN THE SETTLEMENT? 5. Who is included in the Settlement? The Settlement Class consists of all individuals residing in the United States whose Private Information was impacted in the Data Incident affecting Brockton in or around November 2024, including all those who received notice of the Data Incident. 6. Are there exceptions to being included? Yes. Excluded from the Settlement Class are (i) Defendant; (ii) any judges assigned to this case and their staff and family; and (iii) any other person found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be guilty under criminal law of initiating, causing, aiding or abetting the criminal activity occurrence of the Data Incident or who pleads nolo contendere to any such charge. Questions? Call (833) 930-0149 or visit www.BNHDataSettlement.com. 3 THE SETTLEMENT BENEFITS 7. What does the Settlement provide? If approved by the Court, the Defendant will pay up to $825,000 (the “Settlement Amount”) to cover all Valid Claims for Settlement Benefits (up to $2,500 per Settlement Class Member), Notice and Administrative Expenses, and any Court-approved attorneys’ fees, costs, and Service Awards. The Settlement will provide cash payments and three (3) years of Credit Monitoring Services to Settlement Class Members who submit a timely Valid Claim. Participating Settlement Class Members may submit a claim for monetary benefits for either:  Reimbursement for Documented Losses of up to $2,500 in unreimbursed monetary losses that were actually incurred or spent because of the Data Incident between November 1, 2024 and December 8, 2026 and/or compensation for up to three hours for Lost Time spent having to respond to the Data Incident (at $30 per hour, up to $90). OR  An Alternative Cash Payment of up to $50. In addition, all Participating Settlement Class Members will be offered an opportunity to enroll in three (3) years of Credit Monitoring Services. Settlement Benefits may be reduced pro rata (proportionally) based on the amount of Valid Claims (see Question 12). 8. Tell me more about the reimbursement for Documented Losses. Participating Settlement Class Members can claim up to $2,500 for any unreimbursed monetary losses that were actually incurred or spent because of the Data Incident between November 1, 2024 and December 8, 2026. Documented Losses include, but are not limited to unreimbursed losses associated with identity theft or fraud where an unauthorized individual diverted, debited, withdrew, or otherwise conducted fraudulent operations to deprive the Claimant of actual money. At the time you submit your Claim, the Documented Losses must remain unreimbursed, have been denied for reimbursement, and are not part of a pending request for reimbursement by a third party, such as a financial institution. Under the Settlement, you cannot be reimbursed for losses if you have already been reimbursed for the same Documented Losses by another source. To receive reimbursement for Documented Losses you must submit third-party documentation supporting your claims. This can include receipts or other documentation not “self-prepared” that document the costs incurred. “Self-prepared” documents such as handwritten receipts are, by themselves, insufficient to receive reimbursement, but can be considered to add clarity or support other submitted documentation. 9. Tell me more about the compensation for Lost Time. In addition to reimbursement for Documented Losses and Credit Monitoring Services, Participating Settlement Class Members can claim compensation for up to three (3) hours—at a rate of $30 per hour— for lost time spent responding to the Data Incident. Claims for lost time are subject to the $2,500 limit on Documented Losses. No supporting documentation is required, but you must attest under penalty of perjury on the Claim Form that you spent the claimed amount of time responding to the Data Incident. 10. Tell me more about the Alternative Cash Payment. As an alternative to claiming compensation for Documented Losses (including Lost Time), Participating Settlement Class Members may claim an Alternative Cash Payment of up to $50 per person. The amount of this cash payment may be adjusted pro rata (proportionally) based on the amount of Valid Claims (see Question 12). To receive this benefit, you must submit a valid Claim Form, but no supporting documentation is required. Questions? Call (833) 930-0149 or visit www.BNHDataSettlement.com. 4 11. Tell me more about the Credit Monitoring Services. All Participating Settlement Class Members will be offered an opportunity to enroll in Credit Monitoring Services, which will include three (3) years of one-bureau credit monitoring and $1 million in identity theft protection insurance, among other features. If you submit a Valid Claim for Credit Monitoring Services, you will receive an activation code and instructions on how to enroll after the Court grants final approval of the Settlement. 12. How will Settlement Benefits be calculated? After deducting the costs of the Notice and Administrative Expenses and attorneys’ fees, costs, and expenses of Class Counsel and Service Awards from the Settlement Amount, the remaining balance will be used to pay Valid Claims for Settlement Benefits as follows: the total cost of Valid Claims for Credit Monitoring Services, followed by Valid Claims for Documented Losses, followed by Valid Claims for Lost Time, followed by Valid Claims for Alternative Cash Payment. Valid Claims for Settlement Benefits will be reduced pro rata so that the total amount paid will not exceed the Settlement Amount. HOW TO GET SETTLEMENT BENEFITS – MAKING A CLAIM 13. How do I submit a Claim Form to get Settlement Benefits? You must submit a Claim Form by December 8, 2026 to receive Settlement Benefits. Claim Forms must be submitted, with any necessary supporting documentation, online on the Settlement Website at www.BNHDataSettlement.com or by mail, postmarked by December 8, 2026, to the Settlement Administrator at: Settlement Administrator - 83452 c/o Kroll Settlement Administration LLC P.O. Box 225391 New York, NY 10150-5391 14. What if I am submitting a Claim Form for a minor or someone who is deceased? If you are submitting a Claim Form for a minor or a deceased Settlement Class Member, you must be an authorized representative, guardian, executor, administrator, or other legal representative of the Settlement Class Member. You will need to provide supporting documentation with the Claim Form that demonstrates your authority to act on behalf of the Settlement Class Member such as a birth certificate, guardianship papers, power of attorney, or other applicable legal documentation. 15. When will I get Settlement Benefits? The short answer is – after the Settlement is “finally approved” and any challenges to that approval are finally resolved. The Court is scheduled to hold a Final Approval Hearing on January 12, 2026, to decide whether to approve the Settlement, Class Counsel’s request for attorneys’ fees, expenses, and costs, and the Service Award to the Settlement Class Representatives who brought this Action on behalf of the Settlement Class. If the Court approves the Settlement, there may be appeals. It is always uncertain whether appeals will be filed and, if so, how long it will take to resolve them. Settlement Benefits will be distributed as soon as possible, if and when the Court grants final approval of the Settlement and after any appeals are resolved. THE LAWYERS REPRESENTING YOU 16. Do I have a lawyer in this case? Yes, the Court appointed Nickolas J. Hagman of Cafferty Clobes Meriwether & Sprengel, LLP, David Lietz of Milberg, PLLC Jeffrey Ostrow of Kopelowitz Ostrow, P.A., and Leigh S. Montgomery of Ellzey Kherkher Sanford Montgomery, LLP to represent you and other members of the Settlement Class as Settlement Class Counsel. You will not be charged directly for these lawyers; instead, they will receive compensation from the Settlement Amount (subject to Court approval). Questions? Call (833) 930-0149 or visit www.BNHDataSettlement.com. 5 17. Should I get my own lawyer? It is not necessary for you to hire your own lawyer because Settlement Class Counsel works for you. If you want to be represented by your own lawyer, you may hire one at your own expense. 18. How will the lawyers be paid? Settlement Class Counsel will ask the Court to approve attorneys’ fees, costs, and expenses of up to $322,500, as well as a $2,000 Service Award to each of the Settlement Class Representatives. If approved, these amounts will be paid from the Settlement Amount before providing benefits to Settlement Class Members who submit Valid Claims. OBJECTING TO THE SETTLEMENT 19. How do I tell the Court if I do not like the Settlement? If you are a Settlement Class Member, you can choose (but are not required) to object to the Settlement if you do not like it or a portion of it, whether that be to the Settlement Benefits, request for attorneys’ fees, costs and expenses, or Service Awards, Releases provided to the Defendant, or some other aspect of the Settlement. Through an objection, you give reasons why you think the Court should not approve the Settlement. To be considered by the Court, your written notice of objection must include:  Your full name, address, telephone number, and email address (if any);  The case name and case number, Howard, et al. v.
