If you received a notice, you are already considered a member of the Rule 23 Class as defined in FAQ 3 and are eligible to receive monies through the Settlement Agreement. However, if you also participate in the Collective Class, you are eligible to receive additional monies, over and above your recovery as a Rule 23 Class Member. You must submit a Consent to Join Form by June 11, 2026, to receive a potential additional payment and release federal claims.

If you received a notice, you are already considered a member of the Rule 23 Class as defined in FAQ 3. If you wish to participate in the Settlement by remaining a member of the Rule 23 Class and not a member of both the Rule 23 Class and the Collective Class, you do not have to do anything. If you remain a member of the Rule 23 Class and should the Court grant final approval of the parties’ Settlement, you will receive a check for your portion from the Settlement Fund and will release all state law wage and hour claims related to your employment that relate to or arise from the facts and claims alleged in the Lawsuit.

If you do not want to participate in the Settlement, you must submit a written request for exclusion and return it to the Settlement Administrator by June 11, 2026. To be effective, your written request must include: (i) the name of this Litigation, (ii) your name, mailing address, email address, and telephone number, (iii) a statement that you want to be excluded from the Settlement, and (iv) your physical signature.

If you exclude yourself, you will not receive any funds made available through the Settlement, but you will not waive any federal or state wage-related claims against Defendants, and you will retain your right to file your own lawsuit against Defendants should you wish to do so, subject to the applicable statute of limitations.

If you do not wish to exclude yourself, but have an objection to the settlement, you may object to the terms of the Settlement Agreement by providing such objection to the Settlement Administrator on or before June 11, 2026.The objection must include: (i) the name of this Litigation, (ii) your full name, mailing address, email address, and telephone number; (iii) all grounds for the objection, accompanied by any legal support for the objection; (iv) the identity of all counsel who represent you, including any former or current counsel who previously represented you and may be entitled to compensation for any reason related to the objection to the settlement, (v) the identity of all counsel who will appear on your behalf at the Final Fairness and Approval Hearing, (vi) a statement confirming whether you intend to personally appear and/or testify at the Final Fairness and Approval Hearing, and (vii) your physical signature on the written statement (an attorney’s signature is not sufficient).
