Facebook Ordered to Pay $500M in Oculus Lawsuit
Zenimax wanted 15% of company. 16% one time payment is cheaper.

Nice to have a tax write-off too for FB. (Settlement sums can be offset against profits iirc)

Paying X will reduce profits by that amount and taxes by a much lower amount. I'm not sure FB will consider the whole thing nice. I mean, having to pay twice as much would't be twice as nice.
