If you disagree with any part of the settlement (including the lawyers' fees) but don’t want to opt out, you may object. You must give reasons why you think the Court should not approve the settlement and say whether your objection applies to just you, a part of the class, or the entire class. The Court will consider your views. The Court can only approve or deny the settlement—it cannot change the terms of the settlement. You may, but don’t need to, hire your own lawyer to help you.

To object, you must file or send a letter to the Court and to the Settlement Administrator by March 30, 2026 that includes:

(1) the case name and number (Black et al. v. USAA General Indemnity Company et al., No. 8:21-CV-01581-LKG);

(2) your full name, address and telephone number, the last four digits of the applicable policy number(s) or former policy number(s) for your policies with the USAA Defendants, and email address (if you have one);

(3) a statement of the reasons for your objection, including any legal support known to you or your lawyer (if you have one);

(4) a statement of the number of times you have objected to a class action settlement within the past five years from the date of your objection, including the caption of each case in which you have made an objection, and a copy of any orders related to or ruling on your prior objections in each listed case;

(5) a statement of whether you have a lawyer, and the identity of that lawyer (including any former or current lawyers who may be entitled to compensation for any reason related to your objection to the settlement);

(6) a statement of the number of times your lawyer(s) and/or their law firm(s) have objected to a class action settlement within the past five years from the date of your objection, including the caption of each case in which they have made an objection, and a copy of any orders related to or ruling on their prior objections in each listed case;

(7) any agreements relating to the objection or the process of objecting to this proposed Settlement, whether written or oral, between you and your attorney(s) or any other person or entity;

(8) a statement of whether you or your lawyer intend to appear at the final approval hearing, and if you or your lawyer are attending, a list of all persons who will be called to testify at the Final Approval Hearing in support of the objection; and

(9) your signature (signature from your attorneys is insufficient).
