A proceeding commenced under this part may not be discontinued or settled without the court's approval. If the court determines that a proposed discontinuance or settlement will substantially affect the interest of the LLC or a class of members or holders of financial rights, the court shall direct that notice be given to the members or holders of financial rights affected. If notice is so directed to be given, the court may determine which one (1) or more parties to the proceeding shall bear the expense of giving the notice, in such proportions as the court finds to be reasonable in the circumstances, and the amount of such expense shall be awarded as special costs of the proceeding and recoverable in the same manner as other taxable costs.
