ORDER REGARDING FEES

Pursuant to Case Management Order 14 (Master Case doc. 1042), the Fee Order entered on November 28, 2018 (Anderson member case doc. 32) failed to account for the MDL Common Benefit Fund assessment and therefore needs to be amended. CMO 14 and the terms of the executed settlement Release provide for Bayer to deposit 6% of the gross Total Settlement into the MDL Common Benefit Fund, which act it performed fully. As a consequence, the remaining Settlement Funds of $197,400 were deposited into the Qualified Settlement Fund ("QSF") established by Lopez McHugh.

Therefore, the Court ORDERS Lopez McHugh, the administrator of the QSF, which has possession of the said $197,400, to distribute the settlement funds as follows:

Plaintiff Victoria Anderson: $108,229.57 Girard Gibbs/Danko Meredith law firms; expenses: $1,005.83 Girard Gibbs/Danko Meredith law firms; fees: $62,180.691 Seithel Law Firm LLC, fees: $2,792.89 Seithel Law Firm LLC, expenses: $2,899.29 Sugerman Law LLC, fees: $5,585.79 Lopez McHugh LLP, fees: $2,792.89 Lopez McHugh LLP, expenses: $1,176.80 Rawlings Group (Medical Lien): $10,736.25 Total Settlement Fund deposited in Lopez McHugh QSF: $197,400.00

All other terms and requirements of the Fee Order (member case doc. 32) remain in effect.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

FootNotes
