BETWEEN MARCH 4, 2019 AND DECEMBER 12, 2019, YOU MAY BE PART OF A CLASS ACTION
SETTLEMENT

Wawa, Inc. (“Wawa”) has agreed to pay up to $9 million in cash and Gift Cards to
settle a class action lawsuit regarding a data security incident Wawa announced
in December 2019. As previously announced, between March 4, 2019 and December
12, 2019 (the “Period of the Security Incident”), cybercriminals accessed Wawa’s
computer systems and obtained customers’ cardholder information, including
credit and debit card numbers, card expiration dates, and cardholder names on
payment cards that were used at Wawa stores or fuel pumps during that time
period (the “Data Security Incident”). This settlement resolves claims on behalf
of all customers who used their credit or debit cards at Wawa during the Period
of the Security Incident (the “Settlement”). In addition to the Gift Cards and
monetary compensation described below, Wawa has implemented and agreed to
further implement significant data security enhancements, collectively valued at
no less than $35 million. Wawa has denied the allegations made by the plaintiffs
in these cases.


Settlement Class

The Settlement Class consists of all customers who reside in the United States
and who used a credit or debit card at a Wawa convenience store or fuel pump at
any time during the Period of the Security Incident. Excluded from the Class are
Wawa’s executive officers and the Judge to whom the Lawsuit is assigned.


Summary of the Settlement Terms

The Settlement provides three alternative Tiers of relief to Class Members who
submit a valid Claim Form:

 

CATEGORY

WHO IS ELIGIBLE

WHAT YOU CAN GET

Tier One

Customers who: (a) made a credit or debit card purchase at Wawa during the
Period of the Security Incident; (b) did not suffer attempted or actual fraud on
their card; and (c) spent at least some time monitoring their accounts as a
result of the Data Security Incident.

$5 Wawa Gift Card

Tier Two

Customers who: (a) made a credit or debit card purchase at Wawa during the

or attempted fraudulent charge on their card after that transaction; and (c)
spent at least some time monitoring their accounts as a result

 Can receive a

$15 Wawa Gift Card

Tier Three

Customers who: (a) made a credit or debit card purchase at Wawa during the
Period of the Security Incident; and (b) can provide reasonable documentary

the Data Security Incident

Class Members can receive relief from a single Tier only and may submit one
claim form (regardless of the number of cards they used or transactions they
made at Wawa during the Period of the Security Incident).

 
The Court in charge of this case still has to decide whether to approve the
Settlement. If the Court approves the Settlement, Gift Cards or cash
reimbursement will be sent after any appeals are resolved.

  



YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS AND OPTIONS UNDER THE SETTLEMENT 

Option 1: Submit a Claim Form to be Eligible for Compensation

If you timely submit a valid Claim Form by November 29, 2021, you will receive
compensation. You will also give up your right to sue Wawa regarding the Data
Security Incident.


Option 2: Exclude Yourself From the Settlement

If you do not wish to receive compensation from the Settlement and you would
like to retain the right to sue Wawa over the Data Security Incident on your own
at your own expense and on an individual rather than a class basis, you will
need to exclude yourself from the Class. You will get no monetary compensation
from the Settlement. The deadline to exclude yourself (also called opting out)
is November 12, 2021.


Option 3: Object to the Settlement

You have a right to stay in the Class and argue in a written objection that the
Settlement should not be approved. You will still be bound by the Settlement if
it is approved and you will not be allowed to exclude yourself from the
Settlement. The deadline to object is November 12, 2021. You can also ask to
speak in Court about the fairness of the Settlement.


Option 4: Do Nothing

If you do nothing, you will not receive any payment. You will be bound by the
Settlement’s terms and will lose the right to sue Wawa regarding the Data
Security Incident. All Class Members, however, will receive the benefit of
Wawa’s data security enhancements, regardless of whether they submit a Claim
Form.
