• A proposed settlement (the “Settlement”) has been reached in a proposed class action lawsuit styled Advanced Interventional Pain & Diagnostics of Western Arkansas, LLC v. Adva Holdings, LLC, et al., Case No. 8:20-cv-02704-WFJ-CPT (M.D. Fla.).

• The Settlement creates a fund in the amount necessary to pay Approved Claims, costs, and fees (the“Settlement Fund”). The Settlement Fund shall not exceed $9,000,000.00 (the “Maximum Payment”) and it shall provide a base amount of no less than $2,750,000.00 (the “Base Payment”). The ultimate size of the Settlement Fund will depend on the number of Approved Claims, i.e., claims filed and approved for payment. Each Approved Claim will share in the distribution of the Settlement Fund. Each Approved Claim will receive approximately $250.00, subject to pro rata adjustments as provided in the Settlement Agreement, for each of the Settlement Class Members’ facsimile numbers that received one or more of the facsimile transmissions at issue in this Action, as reflected in Defendants’ records, subject to the conditions set forth in the Settlement Agreement.

• The Settlement Class includes all persons and entities since December 20, 2015 through March 3, 2021 who held telephone numbers that received one or more telephone facsimile transmissions in a form the same as or similar to Exhibit A to the Second Amended Complaint, allegedly advertising the availability or quality of property, goods or services of Defendants. Excluded from the Settlement Class are all current employees, officers, and directors of any Defendant, and the judge presiding over this Action and his staff.

• The description of the Settlement in the notice is only a summary. Full details of the Settlement are set forth in the Settlement Agreement, which is on file with the Court and available here.
