PROOF OF CLAIM AND RELEASE FORM

To be eligible to receive a share of the Net Settlement Fund in connection with the Settlement of this Action, you must complete and sign this Proof of Claim and Release Form (“Claim Form”) and mail it by first-class mail to the address below, or submit it online through this Settlement Website by clicking Next below and following all the instructions, with supporting documentation, postmarked (if mailed) or received no later than July 6, 2026.

Failure to submit your Claim Form by the date specified will subject your claim to rejection and may preclude you from being eligible to receive any money in connection with the Settlement.

Do not mail or deliver your Claim Form to the Court, the Parties to the Action, or their counsel. Submit your Claim Form only to the Claims Administrator.

Mail To:

1. It is important that you completely read the Notice of (I) Pendency of Class Action and Proposed Settlement; (II) Settlement Hearing; and (III) Motion for Attorneys’ Fees and Litigation Expenses (the “Notice”) that accompanies this Claim Form, including the Plan of Allocation of the Net Settlement Fund set forth in the Notice. The Notice describes the proposed Settlement, how Settlement Class Members are affected by the Settlement, and the manner in which the Net Settlement Fund will be distributed if the Settlement and Plan of Allocation are approved by the Court. The Notice also contains the definitions of many of the defined terms (which are indicated by initial capital letters) used in this Claim Form. By signing and submitting this Claim Form, you will be certifying that you have read and that you understand the Notice, including the terms of the releases described therein and provided for herein.
2. By submitting this Claim Form, you will be making a request to share in the proceeds of the Settlement described in the Notice. If you are not a Settlement Class Member (see the definition of the Settlement Class on page 5 of the Notice), or if you, or someone acting on your behalf, submitted a request for exclusion from the Settlement Class, do not submit a Claim Form. You may not, directly or indirectly, participate in the Settlement if you are not a Settlement Class Member. Thus, if you are excluded from the Settlement Class, any Claim Form that you submit, or that may be submitted on your behalf, will not be accepted.
3. Submission of this Claim Form does not guarantee that you will share in the proceeds of the Settlement. The distribution of the Net Settlement Fund will be governed by the Plan of Allocation set forth in the Notice or by such other plan of allocation as the Court approves.
4. On the Schedule of Transactions of this Claim Form, provide all of the requested information with respect to your holdings, purchases, acquisitions, and sales of Driven Brands Holdings Inc. (“Driven”) common stock (including free transfers and deliveries), whether such transactions resulted in a profit or a loss. Failure to report all transaction and holding information during the requested time period may result in the rejection of your claim.
5. Please note: Only purchases of Driven common stock from October 27, 2021 through August 1, 2023, inclusive, are eligible under the Settlement and the proposed Plan of Allocation set forth in the Notice. However, under the “90-day look-back period” (described in the Plan of Allocation), sales of Driven common stock during the period from August 2, 2023 through the close of trading on October 30, 2023 will be used for purposes of calculating Recognized Loss Amounts under the Plan of Allocation. Therefore, in order for the Claims Administrator to be able to balance your claim, the requested purchase information during this period must also be provided.
6. You are required to submit genuine and sufficient documentation for all of your transactions in and holdings of Driven common stock set forth in the Schedule of Transactions. Documentation may consist of copies of brokerage confirmation slips or monthly brokerage account statements, or an authorized statement from your broker containing the transactional and holding information found in a broker confirmation slip or account statement. The Parties and the Claims Administrator do not independently have information about your investments in Driven common stock. IF SUCH DOCUMENTS ARE NOT IN YOUR POSSESSION, PLEASE OBTAIN COPIES OF THE DOCUMENTS OR EQUIVALENT DOCUMENTS FROM YOUR BROKER. FAILURE TO SUPPLY THIS DOCUMENTATION MAY RESULT IN THE REJECTION OF YOUR CLAIM.
7. Please keep a copy of all documents that you send to the Claims Administrator.
8. Use the part of this Claim Form entitled “CLAIMANT INFORMATION” to identify the beneficial owner(s) of Driven common stock. The complete name(s) of the beneficial owner(s) must be entered. If you held the Driven common stock in your own name, you were the beneficial owner as well as the record owner. If, however, your shares of Driven common stock were registered in the name of a third party, such as a nominee or brokerage firm, you were the beneficial owner of these shares, but the third party was the record owner. The beneficial owner, not the record owner, must sign this Claim Form to be eligible to participate in the Settlement. If there were joint beneficial owners each must sign this Claim Form and their names must appear as “Claimants” in the Claimant Information section of this Claim Form.
9. One Claim should be submitted for each separate legal entity or separately managed account. Separate Claim Forms should be submitted for each separate legal entity (e.g., an individual should not combine his or her IRA transactions with transactions made solely in the individual’s name). Generally, a single Claim Form should be submitted on behalf of one legal entity including all holdings and transactions made by that entity on one Claim Form. However, if a single person or legal entity had multiple accounts that were separately managed, separate Claims may be submitted for each such account. The Claims Administrator reserves the right to request information on all the holdings and transactions in Driven common stock made on behalf of a single beneficial owner.
10. Agents, executors, administrators, guardians, and trustees must complete and sign the Claim Form on behalf of persons represented by them, and they must:

    (a) expressly state the capacity in which they are acting;

    (b) identify the name, account number, Social Security Number (or other taxpayer identification number), address, and telephone number of the beneficial owner of (or other person or entity on whose behalf they are acting with respect to) the Driven common stock; and

    (c) furnish herewith evidence of their authority to bind to the Claim Form the person or entity on whose behalf they are acting. (Authority to complete and sign a Claim Form cannot be established by stockbrokers demonstrating only that they have discretionary authority to trade securities in another person’s accounts.)

11. By submitting a signed Claim Form, you will be swearing that you:

    (a) own(ed) the Driven common stock you have listed in the Claim Form; or

    (b) are expressly authorized to act on behalf of the owner thereof.

12. By submitting a signed Claim Form, you will be swearing to the truth of the statements contained therein and the genuineness of the documents attached thereto, subject to penalties of perjury under the laws of the United States of America. The making of false statements, or the submission of forged or fraudulent documentation, will result in the rejection of your claim and may subject you to civil liability or criminal prosecution.
13. Payments to eligible Authorized Claimants will be made only if the Court approves the Settlement, after any appeals are resolved, and after the completion of all claims processing.
14. PLEASE NOTE: As set forth in the Plan of Allocation, each Authorized Claimant shall receive his, her, or its pro rata share of the Net Settlement Fund. If the prorated payment to any Authorized Claimant calculates to less than $10.00, it will not be included in the calculation, and no distribution will be made to that Authorized Claimant.
15. If you have questions concerning the Claim Form, or need additional copies of the Claim Form or the Notice, you may contact the Claims Administrator, Strategic Claims Services, at the above address, by email at info@drivenbrandssecuritieslitigation.com, or by toll-free phone at (855) 433-7863, or you can visit the Important Documents page of this Settlement website, www.drivenbrandssecuritieslitigation.com , where copies of the Claim Form and Notice are available for downloading.
16. NOTICE REGARDING INSTITUTIONAL FILERS: Representatives with authority to file on behalf of (a) accounts of multiple Settlement Class Members and/or (b) institutional accounts with large numbers of transactions (“Representative Filers”) must submit information regarding their transactions in an electronic spreadsheet format. (This is different than the online claim portal on the Settlement Website.) To obtain the mandatory electronic filing requirements and file layout, you can visit the Settlement Website at www.drivenbrandssecuritieslitigation.com , or you can email the Claims Administrator’s electronic filing department at efile@drivenbrandssecuritieslitigation.com. Any file not in accordance with the required electronic filing format will be subject to rejection. All Representative Filers MUST also submit a manually signed Claim Form for each Settlement Class Member, as well as proof of authority to file, along with the electronic spreadsheet format. Only one claim should be submitted for each separate legal entity, sub-accounts should be rolled up into a parent account if the sub-accounts contain the same tax identification number, and the complete name of the beneficial owner of the securities must be entered where called for. No electronic files will be considered to have been submitted unless the Claims Administrator issues an email to that effect. Do not assume that your file has been received until you receive the confirmation email. If you do not receive such an email within 10 days after your submission, you should contact the electronic filing department at efile@drivenbrandssecuritieslitigation.com to inquire about your file and confirm it was received.
17. NOTICE REGARDING ONLINE FILING: Claimants who are not Representative Filers may submit their claims online by clicking Next below and following all the instructions. If you are not acting as a Representative Filer, you do not need to contact the Claims Administrator before filing. You will receive an automated email confirming receipt once your Claim Form has been submitted. If you are unsure whether you should submit your claim as a Representative Filer, please contact the Claims Administrator at info@drivenbrandssecuritieslitigation.com or (855) 433-7863. If you are not a Representative Filer, but your claim contains a large number of transactions, the Claims Administrator may request that you also submit an electronic spreadsheet showing your transactions to accompany your Claim Form. If you do not receive a confirmation email within 10 days of your submission, you should contact the Claims Administrator at info@drivenbrandssecuritieslitigation.com to inquire about your claim and confirm it was received and acceptable.
