THIS NOTICE WAS AUTHORIZED BY THE COURT. IT IS NOT A LAWYER SOLICITATION. PLEASE READ THIS SUMMARY NOTICE CAREFULLY. YOUR RIGHTS WILL BE AFFECTED BY A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT PENDING IN THIS COURT.
YOU ARE HEREBY NOTIFIED, pursuant to an Order of the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware (the "Court") and Rule 23 of the Delaware Rules of Civil Procedure, that: (i) the above-captioned action pending in the Court (the "Action") has been preliminarily certified as a class action on behalf of the Class; and (ii) Plaintiffs and Defendants have reached a proposed settlement for $12,750,000.00 in cash (the "Settlement Amount") as set forth in the Stipulation (the "Settlement"), a copy of which is available at www.MoneyLionStockholderSettlement.com. The Settlement, if approved by the Court, will resolve all claims in the Action.
To maximize your recovery as a member of the Class based on your claims in the Action, you must complete and submit the Proof of Claim and Release Form attached to the long-form notice or available at www.MoneyLionStockholderSettlement.com by September 2, 2025, either online at www.MoneyLionStockholderSettlement.com or by printing the form and submitting it as set forth therein.

A hearing (the "Settlement Hearing") will be held on July 24, 2025, at 11:00 a.m., before The Honorable Nathan A. Cook, Vice Chancellor. The Settlement Hearing will be held either in person at the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware, Leonard L. Williams Justice Center, 500 North King Street, Wilmington, Delaware 19801, or remotely by telephone or videoconference (in the discretion of the Court). The purpose of the Settlement Hearing is, among other things, to: (i) determine whether to finally certify the Class for settlement purposes only, pursuant to Court of Chancery Rules 23(a), 23(b)(1), and 23(b)(2); (ii) determine whether Plaintiffs and Plaintiffs' Counsel have adequately represented the Class, and whether Plaintiffs should be finally appointed as Class representatives for the Class and Plaintiffs' Counsel should be finally appointed as Class counsel for the Class; (iii) determine whether the proposed Settlement should be approved as fair, reasonable, and adequate to the Class and in the best interests of the Class; (iv) determine whether the Action should be dismissed with prejudice and the Releases provided under the Stipulation should be granted; (v) determine whether the Order and Final Judgment approving the Settlement should be entered; (vi) determine whether the proposed Plan of Allocation of the Net Settlement Fund is fair and reasonable, and should therefore be approved; (vii) determine whether and in what amount any Fee and Expense Award should be paid to Plaintiffs' Counsel out of the Settlement Fund; (viii) determine whether and in what amount any service award should be paid to Plaintiffs out of the Fee and Expense Award; (ix) hear and rule on any objections to the Settlement, the proposed Plan of Allocation, and/or Plaintiffs' Counsel's application for a Fee and Expense Award; and (x) consider any other matters that may properly be brought before the Court in connection with the Settlement. Any updates regarding the Settlement Hearing, including any changes to the date or time of the hearing or updates regarding in-person or remote appearances at the hearing, will be posted to the Settlement website, www.MoneyLionStockholderSettlement.com.

The Class is a non "opt-out" class pursuant to Delaware Court of Chancery Rules 23(a), 23(b)(1) and 23(b)(2).
