In the legal profession we call this a nusience settlement. It would have cost more than $35,000 in legal fees to successfully defend the suit. They got out the cheapest way possible.

In the Mafia, we call it "extortion".

Yes, but they admitted guilt which is not the purpose of a nuisance settlement.
