it's legalese smoke-&-mirrors for "OFFSET" as in offsetting the amount of $$$ they will be submitting to the FDIC-R to pay book value for any and all assets of WMI they wish to keep over and above what they already paid for WMB. imo
Bkshadow or Exdimer:any opinion regarding this strange wording in the JPM 10Q ?Legal benefit of 645M??What not just say:As part of the settlement with FDIC and DB,we received 645M or we are about to receive in coming weeks?
