BEND, OR-A lawsuit over the sale of the Mt. Bachelor ski resort here was negotiated away late last week when the defendants agreed to let a special committee review all competing tender offers for the resort.

The lawsuit was filed by the Pape Group of Eugene, OR, an existing resort shareholder that offered between $22,100 and $26,000 for each of the 1,382 outstanding shares it didn’t already own. The defendants were the Mt. Bachelor Inc. board of directors and Powdr Corp., the Utah-based company that offered $20,100 per share but still garnered the most shares.

In the settlement reached Friday, a special committee comprised of four board members and one Bend community member will evaluate all competing offers and toward the end of April recommend the best offer to the full board with an explanation. The board will then notify all shareholders of the recommendation, after which shareholders will have an undetermined amount of time to reassign their shares.
