Penguin Group has agreed to join three other publishers in a settlement of a US government lawsuit alleging an e-book price-fixing conspiracy with Apple, officials said.
The Justice Department said that with four of the five publishers having agreed to a settlement, it will proceed in its case against Apple and the remaining publisher, Macmillan.
The agreement was filed in a US federal court in New York and would end Penguin’s role as a defendant in the civil antitrust lawsuit filed by the department on April 11.
