        <p>• The parties have reached a proposed settlement (the “Settlement”) in the above referenced matter. This Settlement, if approved by the Court, will resolve a class action lawsuit against Manufacturers and Traders Trust Company, also known
          as M&amp;T Bank (“M&amp;T Bank”), over whether M&amp;T Bank complied with the Pennsylvania Uniform Commercial Code (UCC), independently, and in conjunction with the Pennsylvania Motor Vehicle Sales Finance Act (MVSFA) relating to notices
          that must be sent to car loan borrowers after their vehicle was repossessed (“Post-Repossession Consumer Disclosure Notices”) and after the repossessed vehicle was sold (“Post-Sale Notices”). The relevant time period for the Settlement is
          from September 22, 2011 through the Preliminary Approval Date (the date the Judge entered a Preliminary Approval Order), inclusive.</p>
        <p>• Under the Settlement, M&amp;T Bank will provide a gross settlement payment of $7.0 million to a Settlement Fund to be used to pay (i) a settlement payment to Class Members, (ii) administrative costs, (iii) class counsel’s legal fees and
          costs, and (iv) an incentive payment to the representative Plaintiffs and one former representative Plaintiff.</p>
        <p>• M&amp;T Bank will also compromise the Disputed Deficiency Balances that it claims are presently owed on the Class Members’ Auto Loans (subject to the exclusions below). As of July 18, 2022, the total amount of the deficiency balances of
          all Class Members (excluding only the loan balances for those Class Members whose vehicles have not been sold as of July 18, 2022) is $42,228,253.43. M&amp;T Bank will also request that the credit reporting agencies Experian, TransUnion,
          and Equifax delete the credit reporting trade lines associated with the Class Members’ Auto Loans with M&amp;T Bank (except those Class Members who redeemed their vehicle and/or reinstated their account after repossession and whose vehicle
          was not subsequently repossessed and sold again prior to the Effective Date.)</p>
        <p>• In exchange, M&amp;T Bank and each Class Member will release each other from liability (or potential liability), in connection with the Class Member’s Auto Loan, as more fully set forth in the Settlement Agreement. The Settlement
          Agreement can be reviewed by clicking on the link below, by reviewing the pleadings at <a href="https://www.pacer.gov">www.pacer.gov</a>, or by requesting a copy from Class Counsel Richard Shenkan and Shenkan Injury Lawyers, LLC. You may

SITUATED V. MANUFACTURERS AND TRADERS TRUST COMPANY A/K/A M&T BANK

CASE NO. 2:17-CV-04806-WB

You may be entitled to receive a settlement payment and other valuable benefits
in connection with a class action against M&T Bank.

• The parties have reached a proposed settlement (the “Settlement”) in the above
referenced matter. This Settlement, if approved by the Court, will resolve a
class action lawsuit against Manufacturers and Traders Trust Company, also known
as M&T Bank (“M&T Bank”), over whether M&T Bank complied with the Pennsylvania
Uniform Commercial Code (UCC), independently, and in conjunction with the
Pennsylvania Motor Vehicle Sales Finance Act (MVSFA) relating to notices that
must be sent to car loan borrowers after their vehicle was repossessed
(“Post-Repossession Consumer Disclosure Notices”) and after the repossessed
vehicle was sold (“Post-Sale Notices”). The relevant time period for the
Settlement is from September 22, 2011 through the Preliminary Approval Date (the
date the Judge entered a Preliminary Approval Order), inclusive.

• Under the Settlement, M&T Bank will provide a gross settlement payment of $7.0
million to a Settlement Fund to be used to pay (i) a settlement payment to Class
Members, (ii) administrative costs, (iii) class counsel’s legal fees and costs,
and (iv) an incentive payment to the representative Plaintiffs and one former
representative Plaintiff.

• M&T Bank will also compromise the Disputed Deficiency Balances that it claims
are presently owed on the Class Members’ Auto Loans (subject to the exclusions
below). As of July 18, 2022, the total amount of the deficiency balances of all
Class Members (excluding only the loan balances for those Class Members whose
vehicles have not been sold as of July 18, 2022) is $42,228,253.43. M&T Bank
will also request that the credit reporting agencies Experian, TransUnion, and
Equifax delete the credit reporting trade lines associated with the Class
Members’ Auto Loans with M&T Bank (except those Class Members who redeemed their
vehicle and/or reinstated their account after repossession and whose vehicle was
not subsequently repossessed and sold again prior to the Effective Date.)

• In exchange, M&T Bank and each Class Member will release each other from
liability (or potential liability), in connection with the Class Member’s Auto
Loan, as more fully set forth in the Settlement Agreement. The Settlement
Agreement can be reviewed by clicking on the link below, by reviewing the
pleadings at www.pacer.gov, or by requesting a copy from Class Counsel Richard
Shenkan and Shenkan Injury Lawyers, LLC. You may contact Mr. Shenkan, with
questions at 1-800-411-1770 or rshenkan@shenkanlaw.com, or the Settlement

you fall into one of the exclusions. In exchange, you give up the right to sue
M&T Bank for matters concerning your Auto Loan and the repossession and sale of
your vehicle as set forth in the Settlement Agreement. ASK TO BE EXCLUDEDYou are
removed from the Settlement. You will not receive the benefits summarized above.

your signed request to be excluded is November 16, 2022, forty (40) days after

Settlement and you will still be a part of the Settlement. The deadline for you
to submit an objection to the equal payment allocation is November 16, 2022,
forty (40) days after the date of this Notice, so you must act promptly. GO TO
