Payments will be made to claimants in each of the four classifications of claims (categories A through D), according to the release.

Fourteen people in Category B will each receive $1,195,000. This category includes those who sustained a single amputation of a limb.

Sixty-nine people in Category C will each receive between $125,000 and $948,300. This category includes those who were physically injured and hospitalized for one or more nights and they will receive their payments determined by length of hospital stay.

The final category, D, will give 143 people $8,000 each. This category includes those who were physically injured but released without an overnight hospital stay.
