Common Fund. In consideration of a full, complete, and final settlement of this Action, dismissal of the Action with prejudice, and the releases below, and subject to the Court’s approval, the Parties agree to the following relief: If no appeal of the Court’s Final Approval Order is timely filed, within 5 days of the Effective Date or within 35 days of the date of entry of the Final Judgment (whichever is later), Plains shall pay the Xxxxxx Class Settlement Amount into the Xxxxxx Class Common Fund, and shall pay the Property Class Settlement Amount into the Property Class Common Fund. Both the Xxxxxx Class Common Fund and the Property Class Common Fund shall be administered by the Settlement Administrator. If an appeal of the Court’s Final Approval Order is timely filed, the Parties will establish an escrow account into which Plains will pay the Xxxxxx Class Settlement Amount and the Property Class Settlement Amount within 35 days of the entry of the Final Judgment. The costs and fees of the escrow shall be paid from the amounts in the escrow account. The escrowed funds shall be invested in short-term U.S. Treasuries. If the appeal results in termination of this Settlement Agreement under Article VI.5, the escrowed funds, including any interest earned, shall be returned to Plains. If the appeal does not result in termination of the Settlement Agreement under Article VI.5, the escrowed funds, including any interest earned, shall be paid into the Xxxxxx Class Common Fund and the Property Class Common Fund within 10 days of the Effective Date. The Settlement Administrator shall disburse funds from the Xxxxxx Class Common Fund and the Property Class Common Fund pursuant to the terms of this Settlement Agreement and in accordance with the orders of the Court. In no event shall Defendants’ monetary liability under this Settlement Agreement exceed the sum of the Xxxxxx Class Settlement Amount and the Property Class Settlement Amount, i.e., U.S. $230 million ($230,000,000.00), as described in this Article.

As part of the settlement, King County will also pay to DRS the 21 PERS contributions on behalf of the Class Members which will allow the Class Members to 22 obtain PERS pension benefits and to retire if they wish.
