CASH PAYMENT OPTIONS
Ordinary Losses (out-of-pocket expenses). If you incurred actual, documented out-of-pocket
expenses due to the Data Incident, you can get back up to $2,000.00. The losses must have occurred
between January 25, 2024, and August 24, 2026.
This benefit covers out-of-pocket expenses like:
• fees for credit reports, credit monitoring, or freezing and unfreezing your credit
• cost to replace your IDs
• postage to contact banks by mail
You need to send proof, like receipts, to show how much you spent or lost. You can also send notes
or papers you made yourself to explain or support other proof, but those notes or papers alone are
not enough to make a valid claim. Your proof or notes should show that your expenses were because
of the Data Incident.
You cannot claim a payment for expenses that have already been reimbursed by a third party.
Extraordinary Losses (losses from identity theft or fraud). If you lost money because of identity
theft or fraud, you can get back up to $5,000.00.
You will need to show that:
• the theft or fraud was probably caused by the Data Incident
• the losses are not already covered by Ordinary Losses
• you tried to prevent the loss or get your money back, such as by using insurance you already
have
The losses must have occurred between January 25, 2024, and August 24, 2026.
You need to send proof, like receipts, to show how much you spent or lost. You can also send notes
or papers you made yourself to explain or support other proof, but those notes or papers alone are
not enough to make a valid claim. Your proof or notes should show that your expenses were because
of the Data Incident.
You cannot claim a payment for expenses that have already been reimbursed by a third party.
Lost Time. Class Members who spent time responding to the Data Incident may claim up to four
hours, at $20.00 per hour, for a maximum of $80.00.
You must have spent the time on tasks related to the Data Incident. Some examples include things
like:
• changing your passwords
• investigating suspicious activity in your accounts
• researching the Data Incident
You must briefly describe how you spent this time or provide supporting documentation.
Alternative Cash Payment. Instead of credit monitoring or any other cash benefit, you may claim a
one-time cash payment. This payment is expected to be $50.00. You do not have to provide any proof
or explanation to claim this payment.

Service Award payments will also be paid by Lakeview Health.
Excluding Yourself from the Settlement
15. How do I opt out of the Settlement?
If you do not want to be part of the Settlement, you must formally exclude yourself from the Settlement. This
is called a Request for Exclusion, and is sometimes also called “opting out.” If you opt out, you will not receive
Settlement benefits or payment. However, you will keep any rights you may have to sue Lakeview Health on
your own about the legal issues in this case.
If you exclude yourself, you are telling the Court that you do not want to be part of the Settlement. You will not
be eligible to receive any Settlement benefits if you exclude yourself.
The deadline to exclude yourself from the Settlement is July 23, 2026.
To be valid, your Request for Exclusion must have the following information:
(1) the name of the Litigation: Skov et al., v. Lakeview Health Systems, L.L.C., Case No. 16-2024-CA-
003154-AXXX-MA, pending in the Circuit Court of Duval County, Florida;
(2) your full name, mailing address, telephone number, and email address;
(3) personal signature; and
(4) the words “Request for Exclusion” or a clear and similar statement that you do not want to
participate in the Settlement.
You may only exclude yourself—not any other person.

Commenting on or Objecting to the Settlement
16. How do I tell the Court if I like or do not like the Settlement?
If you are a Class Member and do not like part or all of the Settlement, you can object to it. Objecting means
telling the Court your reasons for why you think the Court should not approve the Settlement. The Court will
consider your views.
You cannot object if you have excluded yourself from the Settlement (see Question 15)
You must provide the following information for the Court to consider your objection:
(1) the name of the Litigation: Skov et al., v. Lakeview Health Systems, L.L.C., Case No. 16-2024-CA-
003154-AXXX-MA, pending in the Circuit Court of Duval County, Florida;

(3) your signature (if you have hired your own lawyer, their signature is not sufficient);
(4) information that proves that you are a Class Member (such as a notice you have received);
(5) a clear description of all the reasons you object; include any legal support, such as documents,
you may have for your objection;
(6) if you have hired your own lawyer to represent you for this objection, provide their name, bar
number, and contact information;
(7) whether or not you or your lawyer would like to speak at the Final Approval Hearing; and
(8) your lawyer’s signature, along with documentation verifying their representation.
For your objection to be valid, it must meet each of these requirements.

17. What is the difference between objecting and excluding?
Objecting is telling the Court that you do not like something about the Settlement. You can object to the
Settlement only if you do not exclude yourself from the Settlement. Excluding yourself from the Settlement is
opting out and stating to the Court that you do not want to be part of the Settlement. If you opt out of the
Settlement, you cannot object to it because the Settlement no longer affects you.
The Court’s Final Approval Hearing
18. When is the Court’s Final Approval Hearing?
The Court will hold a final approval on October 8, 2026 at 10:00 a.m. Eastern Time via Zoom.

At the final approval hearing, the Court will decide whether to approve the Settlement. The court will also
decide how Class Counsel should be paid, and whether to award Service Award payments to the Class
Representatives. The Court will also consider any objections to the Settlement.
If you are a Class Member, you or your lawyer may ask permission to speak at the hearing at your own cost
(See Question 16).
The date and time of this hearing may change without further notice. Please check
www.LakeviewHealthsettlement.com for updates.
19. Do I have to come to the Final Approval Hearing?
No. Class Counsel will answer any questions the Court may have. You may attend at your own expense if you
wish, but you do not have to.
If you file an objection, you do not have to come to the Final Approval Hearing to talk about it; the Court will
consider it as long as it was filed on time. You may also pay your own lawyer to attend, but you do not have to.
