This was my first thought as well. A round about way of receiving some more rakeback I guess.
It's like we paid ourselves back  Obviously everyone is happy with Stars, as they should be, but this shows that rake can be lowered

So does this mean that all charges against Bitar, Howard, Chris, etc are dropped?

No, all charges against the company are dropped.
Charges against individuals are still there.

re: PokerStars Acquires Full Tilt Poker Assets, DOJ Agreement Complete
"One final word about the future U.S. market. Our settlement acknowledges that both PokerStars and Full Tilt are eligible to apply for a license in the U.S. to offer real money poker when states or the federal government offer such an opportunity. We look forward to this opportunity and are confident that we bring tremendous value, regulatory experience, market credibility and financial integrity to the marketplace."
