40000 ft view of events leading up to and including this past week:

AS raised to 5B
Price to exercise warrants and options made significantly more attractive.

and the kicker....

numerous reports all dumped at once...

Now there are those that have been floating the idea of "insider trading" which, IMO is patently ridiculous. Why would a husband and wife team that have been fighting this battle for over 10 years, do something that that would torpedo the PPS at the eleventh hour? Unless they had to.

Which begs the question...why? Yes, Barbs sold a bunch of shares...but according to the reports, she has been doing this on a regular basis.
This make sense since they have no operating revenue stream. Still gotta pay the lawyers.
But why all the reports, that should have been produced for each transaction, showing up all at once? To get current with SEC reporting.

Would this be necessary if the settlement was just damages + licensing fees? I don't thing so.
It WOULD be necessary if the entity you were settling with required you to be SEC current with all the "i's" dotted and the "t's" crossed...To me it would appear that a buyout or merger was in progress. Especially if the buying entity wanted to purchase ALL of the patents in question in such a clear cut fashion that when they approached the other infringers concerning licensing fees, their claims would be indisputable.

I have no idea and will not speculate what the value of such a buyout would mean, but based in the fact that they stayed the courtroom proceedings for 45 days, and stated that they had an agreement in principle to settle all matters before the court (paraphrasing - world to that effect) and considering what the expected value of the patents would be, I don't think it is unrealistic to expect that the settlement would be substantial.

It may not be life changing for everyone, but for those who hold significant shares (I'm sitting on 82K - which is FAR less than some of you here)...

Absolutely!
