Frequently Asked Questions

BASIC INFORMATION

1. WHAT IS THE NOTICE AND WHY SHOULD I READ IT?

The Court authorized the Notice to inform you about a proposed Settlement with Defendant. You have legal rights and options that you may act on before the Court decides whether to approve the proposed Settlement. You may be eligible to receive a cash payment as part of the Settlement. The Notice explains the lawsuit, the Settlement, and your legal rights.

Judge Maryellen Noreika of the United States District Court for the District of Delaware is overseeing this class action. The case is called Hoyle v. Harrington Raceway, Inc., Case No. 1:23-cv-00420 (D. Del.) (the "Action").

Jaysin Hoyle is the Plaintiff. The company he sued, Harrington Raceway, Inc., is the Defendant.

2. WHAT IS A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT?

A class action is a lawsuit in which one or more plaintiffs – in this case, Jaysin Hoyle, sues on behalf of a group of people who have similar claims. Together, this group is called a "Class" and consists of "Class Members." In a class action, the court resolves the issues for all class members, except those who exclude themselves from the class. After the Parties reached an agreement to settle this case, the Court granted preliminary approval of the Settlement and recognized it as a case that should be treated as a class action for settlement purposes.

THE CLAIMS IN THE LAWSUIT AND THE SETTLEMENT

3. WHAT IS THIS LAWSUIT ABOUT?

The Plaintiff claims that Defendant failed to implement and maintain reasonable security measures necessary to protect Private Information that it maintained on its database. Defendant denies that it is or can be held liable for the claims made in the lawsuit. More information about the allegations in the lawsuit and Defendant's responses can be found in the "Court Documents" section of the Important Documents page of this Settlement Website.

4. WHY IS THERE A SETTLEMENT?

The Court has not decided whether the Plaintiff or Defendant should win this case. Instead, both sides agreed to this Settlement. That way, they can avoid the uncertainty, risks, and expense of ongoing litigation, and Class Members will get compensation now rather than years later-if ever. The Class Representative and Class Counsel, attorneys for the Class Members, agree the Settlement is in the best interests of the Class Members. The Settlement is not an admission of wrongdoing by Defendant.

WHO’S INCLUDED IN THE SETTLEMENT

5. HOW DO I KNOW IF I AM IN THE SETTLEMENT CLASS?

You are part of the Settlement as a Class Member if Harrington sent you a notice indicating that your Private Information may have been compromised in the Data Incident, which occurred in December 2022 but was not publicly announced until April 2023. The Class specifically excludes: (i) all Persons who timely and validly request exclusion from the Class; (ii) the Judge assigned to evaluate the fairness of this settlement (including any members of the Court's staff assigned to this case); (iii) Defendant's officers and directors, and (iv) 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. Eligible Class Members will have been mailed notice of their eligibility by the Settlement Administrator, and Class membership will be verified against that mailed list. If you are still not sure whether you are included, you can contact the Settlement Administrator.

THE SETTLEMENT BENEFITS

6. WHAT DOES THE SETTLEMENT PROVIDE?

This Settlement provides eligible Class Members with (1) up to $1,000.00 in reimbursement for Out-of- Pocket Losses consisting of actual documented out-of-pocket losses or expenses that are fairly traceable to the Data Incident, and (2) a cash payment of approximately $50.00 that will be pro rata increased or reduced based on the money remaining in the Settlement Fund after the payment of attorneys' fees and costs, Settlement Administration costs, Class Representative Service Award, and valid claims for Out-of- Pocket Losses. Valid Claims for Out-of-Pocket Losses and pro rata cash payments may be combined.

6.A. Who May Recover for Out-of-Pocket Losses and for How Much?

• If you are a Class Member and you incurred documented out of pocket losses fairly traceable to the Data Incident and/or documented unreimbursed expenses incurred after December 12, 2022, that are related to the Data Incident, you may be eligible to receive reimbursement of your losses and expenses up to a total of $1,000.00 per Class Member. Eligible losses or expenses include, without limitation: (1) unreimbursed costs, expenses, losses or charges incurred a result of identity theft or identity fraud, falsified tax returns, or other possible misuse of a Settlement Class Member's Social Security number; (2) unreimbursed costs incurred on or after April 10, 2023 associated with accessing or freezing/unfreezing credit reports with any credit reporting agency; (3) other unreimbursed miscellaneous expenses incurred related to any Out-of-Pocket Expenses such as notary, fax, postage, copying, mileage, and long-distance telephone charges; ( 4) other mitigative costs fairly traceable to the Data Incident that were incurred on or after April 10, 2023 through the date of the Settlement Class Member's claim submission; and (5) unpaid time off work to address issues fairly traceable to the Data Incident at the actual hourly rate of that Settlement Class Member.

• Settlement Class Members who elect to submit a claim for reimbursement of Out-of-Pocket Losses must provide to the Claims Administrator information required to evaluate the claim, including: (1) the Settlement Class Member's name and current address; (2) documentation reasonably supporting their claim; and (3) a brief description of the nature of the loss, if the nature of the loss is not apparent from the documentation alone. Documentation supporting Out-of- Pocket Losses can include receipts or other documentation not "self-prepared" by the Settlement Class Member concerning the costs incurred. "Self-prepared" documents such as handwritten receipts are, by themselves, insufficient to receive reimbursement, but can be considered to clarify or support other submitted documentation. For complete details, please see the Settlement Agreement, whose terms control. The Settlement Administrator will post additional information about the payment amount on this Settlement Website, if necessary.

6.B. Who May Receive a separate Pro Rata Cash Payment and for How Much?

• All Class Members may make a Claim to receive a cash payment of approximately $50.00 that will be adjusted up or down to account for the money remaining in the Settlement Fund after the payment of attorneys' fees and costs, Settlement Administration costs, Class Representative Service A ward, and valid claims for Out-of-Pocket Losses. Class Members do not need to suffer Out-of-Pocket Losses for eligibility to file a claim for a pro rata cash payment.

Maximum Settlement Contribution: Under this Settlement, the maximum total amount Defendant may be required to pay is $400,000.00. This maximum includes reimbursements for Out-of-Pocket Losses up to $1,000 and pro rata cash payments of approximately $50.00, attorneys' fees, costs, and expenses awarded by the Court to Class Counsel, any awarded class representative service awards, and notice and administrative costs for the Settlement. In no event shall Defendant's total financial obligation under the Settlement exceed $400,000.00.

THE LAWYERS REPRESENTING YOU

9. DO I HAVE A LAWYER IN THIS CASE?

Yes, the Court has appointed Philip J. Krzeski and Bryan L. Bleichner of Chestnut Cambronne PA and Joseph M. Lyon of The Lyon Firm as "Class Counsel."

Should I get my own lawyer?

• You don't need to hire your own lawyer because Class Counsel are working on your behalf. These lawyers and their firms are experienced in handling similar cases. You will not be charged for these lawyers. You can ask your own lawyer to appear in Comi for you, at your own cost, if you want someone other than Class Counsel to represent you.

10. HOW WILL THE LAWYERS BE PAID?

Class Counsel will ask the Court for attorneys' fees, costs, and expenses that will be paid from the Settlement Fund. Class Counsel will not seek more than $133,333.33 in attorneys' fees and litigation costs and expenses. Class Counsel will also request a Service Award of up to $5,000.00 for the Class Representative. The Court will determine the proper amount of any attorneys' fees, costs, and expenses to award Class Counsel and the proper amount of any service award to the Class Representative. The Court may award less than the amounts requested.

If you did not exclude yourself from the Class and think that the Court should not approve the settlement, you can object to the Settlement and provide reasons why you think the settlement should not be approved. Such notice must state: (i) your full name and address; (ii) the case name and docket number, Hoyle v. Harrington Raceway, Inc., Case No. 1:23-cv-00420-MN (D. Del.); (iii) information identifying yourself as a Class Member, including proof that you are a member of the Class (e.g., copy of your settlement notice, copy of original notice of the Data Incident, or a statement explaining why you believe you are a Class Member); (iv) a written statement of all grounds for the objection, accompanied by any legal support for the objection that you believe is applicable; (v) the identity of any and all counsel representing you in connection with your objection; (vi) a statement whether you and/or your counsel will appear at the Final Fairness Hearing; and (vii) your signature or the signature of your duly authorized attorney or other duly authorized representative (if any) representing you in connection with the objection.

To be timely, written notice of an objection in the appropriate form must be mailed, with a postmark date no later than February 19, 2024, to the Settlement Administrator at Hoyle v. Harrington Raceway Data Settlement, P.O. Box 25225, Santa Ana, CA 92799.

For all objections mailed to the Settlement Administrator, Class Counsel will file them with the Court with the Motion for Final Approval of the Settlement, unless the Objection(s) were previously filed on the docket.

18. WHAT’S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN OBJECTING AND EXCLUDING MYSELF FROM THE SETTLEMENT?

Objecting simply means telling the Court that you don't like something about the Settlement. You can object only if you stay in the Class. Excluding yourself from the Class is telling the Court that you don't want to be part of the Class. If you exclude yourself, you have no basis to object because the case no longer affects you.

The Court will hold the Final Approval Hearing on April 25, 2024 at 10:00 a.m. at the United States District Court for the District of Delaware, 844 N King St, Wilmington, DE 19801. The purpose of the hearing is for the Court to determine whether the Settlement is fair, reasonable, adequate, and in the best interests of the Class.

20. DO I HAVE TO COME TO THE HEARING?

No. Class Counsel will answer any questions the Court may have, but you are welcome to attend the hearing at your own expense. If you send an objection, you don't have to come to Court to talk about it. As long as your written objection was filed or mailed on time and meets the other criteria described in the Settlement Agreement, the Court will consider it. You may also pay a lawyer to attend on your behalf at your own expense, but you don't have to.

21. MAY I SPEAK AT THE HEARING?

Yes. If you do not exclude yourself from the Class, you may ask the Court for permission to speak at the Final Approval Hearing concerning any part of the proposed Settlement.
