THIS NOTICE WAS AUTHORIZED BY THE COURT. IT IS NOT A LAWYER SOLICITATION. PLEASE READ THIS NOTICE CAREFULLY AND IN ITS ENTIRETY.

YOU ARE HEREBY NOTIFIED that a hearing will be held on June 20, 2024, at 1:30 p.m., before the Honorable Harvey Bartle III at the United States District Court, Eastern District of Pennsylvania, James A. Byrne U.S. Courthouse, 601 Market Street, Philadelphia, PA 19106 to determine whether: (1) the proposed settlement (the “Settlement”) of the above-captioned Action as set forth in the Stipulation and Agreement of Settlement (“Stipulation”)1 for $51,000,000 in cash, one million shares of AdaptHealth common stock, and corporate governance reforms to be adopted by AdaptHealth, should be approved by the Court as fair, reasonable and adequate; (2) the Judgment as provided under the Stipulation should be entered dismissing the Action with prejudice; (3) to award Lead Plaintiffs’ Counsel attorneys’ fees and expenses out of the Settlement Fund (as defined in the Notice of Pendency and Proposed Settlement of Class Action (“Notice”), which is discussed below) and, if so, in what amounts; (4) to award Lead Plaintiffs for their costs and expenses in representing the Settlement Class pursuant to 15 U.S.C. §78u-4(a)(4) out of the Settlement Fund and, if so, in what amount; and (5) the Plan of Allocation should be approved by the Court as fair, reasonable and adequate.

The Court may decide to conduct the Final Approval Hearing by video or telephonic conference, or otherwise allow Settlement Class Members to appear at the hearing by phone, without further written notice to the Settlement Class. In order to determine whether the date and time of the Final Approval Hearing have changed, or whether Settlement Class Members must or may participate by phone or video, it is important that you monitor the Court’s docket and the Settlement website, www.AdaptHealthSecuritiesSettlement.com, before making any plans to attend the Final Approval Hearing. Any updates regarding the Final Approval Hearing, including any changes to the date or time of the hearing or updates regarding in-person or telephonic appearances at the hearing, will also be posted to the Settlement website, www.AdaptHealthSecuritiesSettlement.com. Also, if the Court requires or allows Settlement Class Members to participate in the Final Approval Hearing by telephone, the phone number for accessing the telephonic conference will be posted to the Settlement website, www.AdaptHealthSecuritiesSettlement.com.

IF YOU PURCHASED OR ACQUIRED ADAPTHEALTH SECURITIES BETWEEN NOVEMBER 8, 2019 AND JULY 16, 2021, INCLUSIVE, YOUR RIGHTS ARE AFFECTED BY THE SETTLEMENT OF THIS ACTION.

Your failure to submit your Proof of Claim by July 15, 2024, will subject your claim to rejection and preclude your receiving any of the recovery in connection with the Settlement of this Action. If you purchased or acquired AdaptHealth Securities between November 8, 2019 and July 16, 2021, inclusive, and do not request exclusion from the Settlement Class, you will be bound by the Settlement and any judgment and release entered in the Action, including, but not limited to, the Judgment, whether or not you submit a Proof of Claim.
