MINNEAPOLIS, Sept. 14, 2026 /PRNewswire/ --

AMENDED SHORT-FORM NOTICE

This Court-authorized amended notice extends the time for Settlement Class Members to object to or opt out of the Settlement with Tyson to October 23, 2026, includes Co-Lead Counsel's request for incurred litigation costs and future litigation costs, and provides a new date for the Fairness Hearing, now set for November 12, 2026. If you have already submitted a Claim Form for the Settlements with JBS and/or Tyson, you do not need to resubmit a Claim Form.

COURT-APPROVED LEGAL NOTICE

If you purchased Boxed or Case-Ready Beef directly from Cargill, JBS, National Beef, or Tyson in the United States from January 1, 2015, through February 29, 2020, you may be eligible to receive a payment from a new class action settlement.

Para una notificacion in español, llame gratis al 1-877-331-0717

o visite nuestro website www.BeefDirectPurchaserSettlement.com.

A new Settlement has been reached in a class action antitrust lawsuit filed on behalf of Direct Purchaser Plaintiffs with Tyson Foods, Inc. and Tyson Fresh Meats, Inc. (collectively, "Tyson"). Direct Purchaser Plaintiffs allege that Cargill, Inc., Cargill Meat Solutions Corporations (a/k/a Cargill Protein) (collectively "Cargill"); JBS S.A., JBS USA Food Company, JBS Packerland, Inc., and Swift Beef Company (collectively, "JBS"); National Beef Packing Company ("National Beef"); and Tyson conspired and combined to fix, raise, maintain, and stabilize the prices of case-ready and boxed beef, beginning at least as early as January 1, 2015, with the result of increasing prices in the United States, in violation of federal antitrust laws. Defendants deny that they did anything wrong. The Court previously approved a $52.5 million settlement with JBS. The lawsuit is proceeding against Cargill and National Beef.

Who is Included?

The Court decided that, for settlement purposes, members of the Settlement Class for the Tyson Settlement are defined as: "All persons and entities who directly purchased Beef1 for use or delivery in the United States, whether fresh or frozen, made from one of the following primals: chuck, loin, rib or round from Defendants, or their respective subsidiaries or affiliates, from January 1, 2015 to February 29, 2020. For this lawsuit, beef excludes any product that is marketed as organic, grass-fed, kosher, halal, certified humane, Wagyu, "American-Style Kobe Beef," and any product that is cooked, marinated, seasoned, flavored, or breaded."

A more detailed notice, including the full class definitions, is available at www.BeefDirectPurchaserSettlement.com or by calling toll-free 1-877-331-0717.

What does the Settlement Provide?

Under the terms of the Settlement Agreement, Tyson will pay $82,500,000 ("Settlement Proceeds") to resolve all Settlement Class claims against it in this litigation. In addition to this monetary benefit, Tyson has also agreed to provide specified cooperation in the Direct Purchaser Plaintiffs' continued prosecution of the litigation. These Settlement Proceeds will pay notice and administration costs, class representative service awards, attorneys' fees, incurred litigation costs, future litigation costs, and money to eligible Settlement Class Members.

How Can I File A Claim To Get A Payment From The Settlement?

If you already filed an approved claim in the previous settlement with JBS, you will automatically be eligible to receive a payment and do not need to submit another claim.

However, if you filed a claim in the JBS settlement and submitted additional documentation to supplement your claim, you may need to re-submit that documentation.

If you did not file a claim in the previous settlement, you must complete and submit a timely Claim Form online or by mail by November 30, 2026 to be eligible to receive a payment from this Settlement. The amount of your payment will depend on the amount of approved Beef purchases made and the number of valid claims.

Claim Forms for known Settlement Class Members were previously sent by U.S. Mail in May 2026 and were pre-populated, where possible, to reflect the amount of Beef purchases from each Defendant, based on Defendants' records. If you received a pre-populated Claim Form, you may use your personal Unique ID Number listed on your Claim Form to log in at www.BeefDirectPurchaserSettlement.com, where you can submit a claim and review your purchase information electronically. You can accept the purchase amounts that are pre-populated or, if you disagree with those amounts, you can complete and submit the Purchase Audit Request Form and provide supporting documentation by November 30, 2026.

You can also request that a Claim Form be sent to you by visiting the Settlement Website or by sending a written request to the Claims Administrator by mail: DPP Beef Litigation, c/o A.B. Data, Ltd., P.O. Box 173066, Milwaukee, WI 53217 or by email: [email protected].

If you have already submitted a Claim Form for the JBS and/or Tyson Settlements, you do not need to resubmit the Claim Form.

What are your Rights and Options?

You do not need to take any action to remain a member of the Settlement Class and be bound by the Settlement Agreement. As a Settlement Class member, you may be able to participate in (or exclude yourself from) any future settlement or judgment obtained by Direct Purchaser Plaintiffs against Cargill or National Beef in the case.

If you don't want to be legally bound by this Settlement, you must exclude yourself by October 23, 2026, or you won't be able to sue or continue to sue Tyson for the Released Claims (as defined in the Settlement Agreement). If you exclude yourself, you can't get money from this Settlement. If you don't exclude yourself from this Settlement Class, you may object to the Settlement by October 23, 2026. The detailed notice available on the settlement website explains how to exclude yourself or object. The Court will hold a hearing in this case (In re Cattle and Beef Antitrust Litigation, et al. (In re DPP Beef Litigation), No. 20-cv-01319 JRT-HB (D. Minn)) on November 12, 2026 to consider whether to approve the Settlement Agreement and a request for attorneys' fees up to 33 1/3% of the Settlement Proceeds, incurred litigation costs not to exceed $1.5 million, up to $25,000 in service awards for each class representative, and future litigation costs of $5 million. You or your own lawyer may appear and speak at the hearing at your own expense.

North River Partners will manage the portfolio of multifamily and single-family build-to-rent construction loans

NEW YORK, Sept. 14, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Funds managed by AB CarVal, an established global alternative investment manager and part of AllianceBernstein's Private Alternatives business, in conjunction with North River Partners, have acquired a $340 million portfolio of 10 performing multifamily and single-family, build-to-rent construction loans in seven U.S. metros, continuing to expand the firm's commercial real estate private credit platform.

North River Partners, an existing partner of AB CarVal, will manage the portfolio, which consists of properties in various stages of construction. AB CarVal funded with $98 million worth of construction loans with North River Partners in 2025, and this transaction extends that relationship into portfolio-level investing.

"This transaction expands our footprint in multifamily construction credit and demonstrates our ability to uncover attractive relative value opportunities across commercial real estate credit," said Scott Greenfield, principal with AB CarVal. "We continue to leverage our flexible mandate and broad sourcing network to acquire what we believe to be high-quality assets that may generate compelling risk-adjusted returns for our investors."

About AB CarVal

Fee-eligible AUM includes capital that is committed to an AB CarVal investment vehicle but is currently uncalled or recallable. Both figures include assets that may not be generating management or performance fees solely due to AB CarVal's decision not to charge fees. AUM includes capital from an insurance-dedicated fund that invests in underlying funds managed by AB CarVal. To the extent these investments are included in the underlying funds' AUM, such assets are included only once in AUM.

ROCHESTER HILLS, Mich., Sept. 14, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Daia Orthodontics & TMJ Orthopedics, a leading orthodontic and orofacial pain practice based in Rochester Hills, Michigan, today announced its expansion into Canada through the acquisition of four orthodontic clinics across the Maritime provinces.

The four acquired clinics (formerly docbraces), located in Grand Falls NB, Woodstock NB, Charlottetown PEI and Summerside PEI, will continue serving their local communities under the leadership of their existing clinical and administrative teams. Patients throughout the Maritimes are already familiar with Dr. Daia, who has been treating patients at these locations since 2021 and has built trusted relationships with doctors, patients and families in the communities they serve.

"Our expansion into Canada is overdue. It is an exciting and meaningful next chapter for Daia Orthodontics. The amount of appreciation and support I have received from people in the Maritimes made this commitment the right decision," said Dr. Hadi Daia, founder/owner of Daia Orthodontics. "The Maritimes have a strong tradition of community-focused healthcare, and we are honored to become part of these communities. My goal is not simply to grow the number of practices, but to support exceptional clinicians and teams while giving patients access to the highest standards of orthodontic and comprehensive TMD, Orofacial Pain and TMJ Orthopedics health care."

Dr. Daia brings a uniquely global cross-border perspective to the expansion. In addition to being a Diplomate of the American Board of Orthodontics and the American Board of Orofacial Pain, he is a Fellow of the Royal College of Dentists of Canada in the Specialty of Orthodontics and Dentofacial Orthopedics.

"Our philosophy has always been that orthodontics is about more than straight teeth," said Dr. Daia. "It is about understanding the relationship between the teeth, jaws, muscles, body posture, airways and overall function, and developing an individualized treatment plan around each patient's needs and anatomical possibilities. We look forward to continuing that philosophy in our Canadian practices."

With the addition of four Maritime clinics, Daia Orthodontics will serve patients across 5 locations, creating new opportunities for collaboration among orthodontists, specialists and clinical teams.

"Growth is only meaningful when it allows us to improve the care we provide," said Dr. Daia. "We are excited about what this next chapter can mean for our patients, our teams and the communities we have the privilege of serving."
