| Aristocrat Leisure says it will pay $US212 million ($A225.86 million) in damages after a settlement was reached in litigation relating to convertible bonds in the US.
The company said on Wednesday a settlement agreement had been reached under which neither it nor the bondholders would appeal any aspect of the case, in exchange for a further reduction of the total damages payable by Aristocrat of approximately $US10 million ($A10.65 million).
The final damages payable by Aristocrat will be approximately $US212 million, and payment to the bondholders is underway, the company said.
