SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT AND RELEASE THIS SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT AND RELEASE OF CLAIMS (?Agreement?) is entered into by and between Annette ?Nettie? Dokes (?Dokes?), Olayinka Ogunyemi (?Ogunyemi?), Karen DeVenaro (?DeVenaro?) (collectively ?Plaintiffs? and individually ?Plaintiff?) and the City of Seattle, Seattle City Light and all of its agents, employees, and representatives (?the City? or ?City Light? or ?Defendant?) (jointly referred to as ?the Parties?). RECITALS A. Annette ?Nettie? Dokes was employed by Seattle City Light from February 29, 1988 to March 5, 2014. The last position Dokes held at City Light was Metering Manager. B. Olayinka Ogunyemi has been employed by the City of Seattle since November 26, 1990, and remains a current City of Seattle employee. From January 5, 2000 until April 5, 2016, Ogunyemi worked at Seattle City Light as a Personnel Specialist. C. Karen DeVenaro was employed by the City of Seattle from July 25, 1994 to January 6, 2014. From May 18, 2009 until January 6, 2014, DeVenaro worked as Seattle City Light?s Apprenticeship Manager. D. Dokes, Ogunyemi and DeVenaro, together with another former City Light employee, Patsy Taylor, ?led a lawsuit against the City, now pending in King County Superior Court, Cause No. 14-2-28469-1 SEA. Dokes alleged discrimination based on her age, sexual orientation, gender and disability, failure to accommodate her disability, hostile work environment, retaliation, and wrongful termination. Ogunyemi alleged discrimination based on her age, as well as hostile work environment and retaliation. DeVenaro alleged discrimination based on her age and sexual orientation, as well as hostile work environment, retaliation and constructive discharge. On June 24, 2016, plaintiff Taylor voluntarily dismissed all her claims in the lawsuit, leaving Dokes, Ogunyemi and DeVenaro as the three remaining plaintiffs. E. The claims of Dokes, Ogunyemi and DeVenaro involve very different facts. Dokes, Ogunyemi and DeVenaro each worked in different positions, under different supervisors and have different employment histories. The City views the claims of Dokes, Ogunyemi and DeVenaro separately, has a different view regarding the merits of each claim and places a different value on each claim. F. Mediation took place on Friday, March 3, 2017, with mediator 'Cliff Freed. During mediation, plaintiffs Dokes, Ogunyemi and DeVenaro each agreed to settle their respective claims against the City, as memorialized in the Memorandum of Material Terms Subject to CR 2A, which was signed by the Parties and their counsel on March 3, 2017. G. During mediation, the issue of whether Dokes would be eligible for rehire by the City was not explicitly discussed. Post mediation, the Parties could not agree how to address this issue, but they did agree to submit the issue to the mediator, Cliff Freed, for resolution and to be bound by the Settlement Agreement 1 Dokes, Ogunyemi, De Venaro and City of Seattle mediator?s resolution of the issue. The mediator resolved the issue as set out in Paragraph 5.0 of this Agreement and the Parties agreed to this resolution. H. The Parties desire to enter into this Settlement Agreement in order to provide payment in full settlement and discharge of all claims by Dokes, Ogunyemi and DeVenaro which are, or might have been, the subject matter of the Complaint, upon the terms and conditions set forth below. I. As a consequence of this Agreement, Dokes, Ogunyemi and DeVenaro each agree to move to dismiss the Complaint against the City with prejudice.
