MINNEAPOLIS, Oct. 5, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Appliance Recycling Centers of America, Inc. (ARCI) ("ARCA" or the "Company"), a leading provider of appliance retailing and recycling services, today announced that the Hennepin County District Court, State of Minnesota, has granted final approval of a settlement of the stockholder derivative lawsuit captioned Gray, et al. v. Cameron, et al.
The plaintiffs in this lawsuit sought to assert claims derivatively on behalf of ARCA against certain of the Company's current and former officers and directors. The settlement resolves all claims asserted in the lawsuit. The final approval was granted by the court on September 29, 2017.
ARCA and the other defendants vigorously denied plaintiffs' allegations, and have not admitted any liability or wrongdoing as part of the settlement. The court made no findings or determinations with respect to the merit of plaintiffs' claims, and no payment is being made by ARCA or the other defendants.
As a condition of the settlement, ARCA has agreed to provide certain training to employees in the Company's accounting department for a period of one year. The court also granted an application by plaintiffs' counsel for attorneys' fees, to be paid by the Company's insurance carrier. Other than this award of attorneys' fees, no payment or other consideration was paid by ARCA nor its officers or directors in connection with the settlement.
