$2,514,000 aggregate for Common Good Fund (for health and welfare of retired players, and to backstop the Additional Payment Fund)

$750,000 aggregate for Administrative Expenses (Claims Administrator, Lien Administrator, Judge Keyes; any surplusage to Common Good Fund; any shortfall made up from Common Good Fund)

$6,950,000 aggregate for Attorneys’ Fees and Costs (no additional fees or costs permissible under individual client retainer agreements)

$18,922,000 Total Monetary Benefits (all of the above elements)
Ah, so lawyers get $6.9 million, and the rest is in other funds?
