terms and your rights and options.

Settlement, who is eligible to receive benefits from this Settlement, a
description of the benefits, and how to obtain those benefits.

Plaintiff Philip Durkin filed this class action lawsuit against VNA of Texas
d/b/a The Visiting Nurse Association of Texas (“VNA” or “Defendant”) related to
a Data Incident that occurred on or around July 17, 2025. Plaintiff and

Question 3

Why is this a class action?

Accepted Answer

In a class action lawsuit, one or more individuals (called the “Plaintiff” or
“Settlement Class Representatives”) bring claims on behalf of a larger group of
people who have similar claims (the “Settlement Class” or “Settlement Class
Members”). The Court resolves the claims for all Settlement Class Members,
except for those who choose to exclude themselves from (or “opt-out” of) the
Settlement Class.

Question 4

Why is there a Settlement?

Accepted Answer

The Plaintiff and Defendant disagree about the legal claims in this Action. The
Action has not gone to trial, and the Court has not decided in favor of either
the Plaintiff or the Defendant. Instead, the Plaintiff and Defendant
(collectively, the “Parties”) agreed to settle the Action after considering the
risks, costs, and uncertainties of continued litigation.

The Settlement Class includes all individuals residing in the United States

that the Settlement Class includes approximately 26,000 individuals.
