GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS

1. It is important that you completely read the Notice of Pendency of Class Action and Proposed Settlement, Settlement Hearing and Motion for Attorneys’ Fees and Reimbursement of Litigation Expenses (“Notice”) that accompanies this Proof of Claim and Release (“Claim Form”), including the Plan of Allocation of the Net Settlement Fund set forth in the Notice. The Notice is also available on the Settlement website at: www.strategicclaims.net/tds/. 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. To be eligible to receive a share of the Net Settlement Fund in connection with the Settlement of the action entitled Howard M. Rensin, Trustee of the Rensin Joint Trust v. United States Cellular Corporation, et al., Case No. 1:23-cv-02764 (N.D. Ill.) (the “Action”), you must complete and sign this Claim Form. If you fail to submit a timely and properly addressed (as explained in paragraph 4 below) Claim Form, your claim may be rejected and you may not receive any recovery from the Net Settlement Fund created in connection with the proposed Settlement.

3. Submission of this Claim Form, however, does not assure that you will share in the proceeds of the Settlement of the Action.

4. YOU MUST SUBMIT YOUR COMPLETED PROOF OF CLAIM FORM, ACCOMPANIED BY COPIES OF THE DOCUMENTS REQUESTED HEREIN, SO THAT IT IS POSTMARKED (FOR U.S. MAIL) OR RECEIVED BY THE PRIVATE CARRIER (FOR FEDEX, UPS, ETC.)

If you are a member of the Settlement Class (as defined in the Notice) and you do not timely request exclusion in response to the Notice dated May 8, 2025, you are bound by the terms of any judgment entered in the Action, including the releases provided therein, WHETHER OR NOT YOU SUBMIT A CLAIM FORM OR RECEIVE A PAYMENT.

II. CLAIMANT IDENTIFICATION

1. 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 in the Notice), 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.

2. Use Part A of this form entitled “Claimant Information” to identify each beneficial owner of TDS securities that form the basis of this claim, as well as the owner of record if different. THIS CLAIM MUST BE FILED BY THE ACTUAL BENEFICIAL OWNERS OR THE LEGAL REPRESENTATIVE OF SUCH OWNERS. If you held the TDS securities in your own name, you were the beneficial owner as well as the record holder. If, however, your TDS securities were registered in the name of a third party, such as a nominee or brokerage firm, you were the beneficial owner of those shares, but the third party was the record holder.

3. All joint owners must sign this claim. Executors, administrators, guardians, conservators, and trustees must complete and sign this claim on behalf of persons represented by them and their authority must accompany this claim and their titles or capacities must be stated. The Social Security (or taxpayer identification)number and telephone number of the beneficial owner may be used in verifying the claim. Failure to provide the foregoing information could delay verification of your claim or result in rejection of the claim.

III. IDENTIFICATION OF TRANSACTIONS

1. Use Part B of this form entitled “Schedule of Transactions in TDS Securities” to supply all required details of your transaction(s) in TDS securities.

2. On the schedule, provide all of the requested information with respect to your holdings, purchases, acquisitions, and sales of TDS securities, whether the transactions resulted in a profit or a loss. Failure to report all such transactions may result in the rejection of your claim.

3. Copies of broker confirmations or other documentation of your transactions must be submitted with your claim. Failure to provide this documentation could delay verification of your claim or result in rejection of your claim. THE PARTIES DO NOT HAVE INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR TRANSACTIONS IN TDS SECURITIES.

4. 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. If you are a Representative Filer, you must contact the Claims Administrator at efile@strategicclaims.net or visit their website at www.strategicclaims.net/tds/ to obtain the required file layout. Claims which are not submitted in electronic spreadsheet format and in accordance with the Claims Administrator’s instructions may be subject to rejection. All Representative Filers MUST also submit a manually signed Claim Form, as well as proof of authority to file (see Item 3 of the Claimant Identification above), along with the electronic spreadsheet format. No claims submitted in electronic spreadsheet format will be considered to have been properly submitted unless the Claims Administrator issues to the Claimant a written acknowledgment of receipt and acceptance of electronically submitted data.

5. 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 prior to filing; you will receive an automated e-mail confirming receipt once your Claim Form has been submitted. If you are unsure if you should submit your claim as a Representative Filer, please contact the Claims Administrator at info@strategicclaims.net or call (866) 274-4004. 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.
