I don't believe it is an outright reduction. It looks like the fine was $1 million PLUS $350,0000. The potential reduction comes from E-sports paying the $350,000 and complying with the terms of the agreement over the next ten years. If they pay and comply, then whatever unpaid balance on the $1 million fine will be forgiven.
