Plaintiffs hereby release and discharge DOI and the United States of America, including its agencies, departments, officers, employees, servants, and agents, from any and all claims and causes of action that Plaintiffs asserted, or could have asserted, in this litigation arising out of the FOIA request. The DOI shall pay to Plaintiffs the sum of ONE THOUSAND TWO HUNDRED SIXTY-SIX DOLLARS AND FIVE CENTS ($1,266.05) in attorneys fees and litigation costs, pursuant to 5 U.S.C. § 552(a)(4)(E), which sum Plaintiffs agree to accept as full payment of any attorneys' fees and costs Plaintiffs have incurred or will incur in this action for services performed up to the date of this Stipulation and Order. This action is hereby dismissed with prejudice and without costs or fees other than as provided in paragraph 2 of this Stipulation and Order, provided that the Court shall retain jurisdiction over any issues that may arise relating to this Stipulation and Order. Nothing in this Stipulation and Order shall constitute an admission that the DOI or the United States are liable for any attorneys' fees or litigation costs, or that Plaintiffs "substantially prevailed" in this action under 5 U.S.C. § 552(a)(4)(E), or are entitled to or eligible for any attorneys' fees or litigation costs. This Stipulation and Order is entered into by the parties solely for the purpose of compromising disputed claims in this case and avoiding the expenses and risks of further litigation concerning Plaintiffs' claims, including claims for attorneys' fees and litigation costs. This Stipulation and Order is non precedential with respect to any other proceeding involving the parties, including, but not limited to, any other FOIA action or administrative proceeding, and shall have no effect or bearing on any pending or future request for records made by Plaintiffs under FOIA. The parties understand and agree that this Stipulation and Order contains the entire agreement between them, and that no statements, representations, promises, agreements, or negotiations, oral or otherwise, between the parties or their counsel that are not included herein shall be of any force or effect. The parties understand and agree that this Stipulation may be signed in counterparts, each of which constitutes an original and all of which constitute one and the same Stipulation. Facsimiles and/or PDFs of signatures shall have the same force and effect as original signatures and constitute acceptable, binding signatures for purposes of the Stipulation. SO ORDERED.
