By making payments pursuant to this Stipulated Order, Defendant relinquishes all legal and equitable right, title, and interest in such funds and no part of the funds shall be returned to Relief Defendant.

The Commission shall hold the funds, together with any interest and income earned thereon (collectively, the "Fund"), pending further order of the Court. The Commission may propose a plan to distribute the Fund subject to the Court's approval. Such a plan may provide that the Fund shall be distributed pursuant to the Fair Fund provisions of Section 308(a) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. The Court shall retain jurisdiction over the administration of any distribution of the Fund. If the Commission staff determines that the Fund will not be distributed, the Commission shall send the funds paid pursuant to this Stipulated Order to the United States Treasury.

Each party will pay its own fees and costs.
