The class-action litigation agreement includes payments of $1,500 for individual minors, according to Boston-based Veolia North America.
Veolia North America had faced a trial this month in federal court, but that has been suspended pending final approval of its settlement agreement, the company said.
The issues for a jury would have included whether Veolia North America breached care and, if so, whether that breach prolonged the crisis.
Another trial is scheduled in October on behalf of seven other Flint children, according to their attorney, Corey Stern.
The settlement announced Thursday by Veolia North America does not affect the October trial, Stern said.
