Claim deadlineWorkhorse (WKHS) agreed to pay $35 million to settle a securities class action lawsuit to avoid further litigation.
$15,000,000 is to be provided in cash and the remainder is to be paid in the form of shares of Workhorse common stock.

- the concealment of the impractical and expensive nature of electrifying the entire USPS fleet, and
- that the statements about the company's business, operations, and prospects were materially false and misleading and lacked a reasonable basis.
