If the settlement is approved by the Court, GHP and its affiliates will pay $10,000,000 and will grant debt relief estimated to be in excess of $2,500,000 in exchange for a release of all claims alleged in the lawsuit relating to the handling of tenant deposits. The net settlement fund after deducting attorneys’ fees, costs, service awards, and costs of administration of the settlement will be distributed to former tenants based on the amounts withheld from them by GHP and affiliates.
