Noretreat, apparently, Menon and Aruda worked together, in some capacity, on Kevetrin. The following comes from the Cellceutix Aruda Agreement:

IN THIS AGREEMENT, Cellceutix Corporation, a Nevada corporation (“Cellceutix”), and Wayne O. Aruda, (“Aruda”), Aruda Inc. dba Agrenetics, a Massachusetts corporation (“Agrenetics”), (each of Cellceutix, Aruda, and Agrenetics being a “Party”), agree as follows:



1.1

Aruda and Dr. Krishna Menon, (“Menon”), by a separate agreement of even date herewith, agreed that they jointly invented the compounds and therapeutic uses disclosed and claimed in U.S. Patent No. 8,338,454 (“’454 Patent”), including Kevetrin (as defined below) and its therapeutic uses.

So, Aruda's settlement is so lucrative, because he is a co-creator of Kevetrin and associated compounds. Here's the link for these agreements:

Perhaps, someone can find some more background info on Aruda.
