      2.     The Court finds that it has subject matter jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C.

§ 1332(d)(2) to enter this Final Judgment and that it has personal jurisdiction over

Plaintiffs, Wright & Filippis, LLC (in this Action only and for purposes of this

Settlement), and all Settlement Class Members.

      3.     Upon the Settlement Agreement becoming effective in accordance with

its terms, all of the following claims shall be released. Specifically, per Section 4 of

the Settlement Agreement:

             Upon the Effective Date, and in consideration of the
             Settlement Benefits described herein, the Class
             Representatives and all Class Members identified in the
             settlement class list in accordance with Section 6.4, on
             behalf of themselves, their heirs, assigns, executors,
             administrators, predecessors, and successors, and any other
             person purporting to claim on their behalf, release and
             discharge all Released Claims, including Unknown Claims,
             against each of the Released Parties and agree to refrain
             from instituting, directing or maintaining any lawsuit,
             contested matter, adversary proceeding, or miscellaneous
             proceeding against each of the Released Parties that relates
             to the Data Breach or otherwise arises out of the same facts
             and circumstances set forth in the class action complaint in
             this Action. This Settlement releases claims against only the
             Released Parties. This Settlement does not release, and it is
             not the intention of the Parties to this Settlement to release,
             any claims against any third party. Nor does this Release
             apply to any Class Member who timely excludes himself or
             herself from the Settlement.

      4.     The Action and all Released Claims against Wright & Filippis, LLC

and the Released Parties are hereby dismissed with prejudice and without fees or

costs, other than as specified in the Settlement Agreement, including those costs of

Wright & Filippis, LLC shall be final and entered forthwith.
