RCMac, <<As a lawyer I've been on both sides of class actions, and have dealt with a number of settlements. FYIC, I can tell you that approval and payment of the settlement will surely take several months.>> It looks like it will be the middle of 2000 before we see any money. Is that likely from your prospective ? DAVID

RCMac,,,,so if Vivus was smart they would acquire the needed number of shares , hold them in escrow and pay out sometime next year. Lock in the cost of shares at a lower price in 1998 (may have done it already at $2-3 a share)_......
