To answer your question Yes they will end up paying the entire $3.75M. The settlement has two parts:
1) Anyone who purchased between March 21, 2009 and roughly now is entitled to a refund of up to $94 per pair. To receive this you have to "submit valid and completed claim form." If any of the $3.75M remains, they will donate the rest to the Red Cross.
2) They have to stop making the false claims.

Wow. So I can steal $94 from a company that produced a product that helped me get over chronic pf, or I can let that money go to a corrupt charity? Perhaps, I should get my share.

re: you got it

They should blacklist anyone who asks for the refund and they should never be able to buy another pair.

if you are serious - unsure based on the handle - agreed a minimalist approach (just wearing racing flats for me) ended a 6 month struggle with PF

these shoes actually cured my plantar fasciitis. I was suffering from it in both feet, really bad PF. One day I noticed that going barefoot most of the day up and down the stairs made my feet feel better. I bought a pair of Vibrams and went for long walks a couple times a day around town. Withing a few weeks I had zero PF. I run/jog about 1 mile a week in Vibrams...they help my feet become stronger. Of course, if I always ran in them, I would be hurt all of the time.

Vibrams cured my leprosy. One time I came across an 18 wheeler stuck on an icy roadway blocking traffic for miles. After assessing the situation, I used a pair of Vibrams wedged between the drive wheels to give it traction to free it and got traffic moving again. Ever since my father got a pair of Vibrams, he's been able to complete Beethoven's Concerto #5 flawlessly on the tuba.
