The company also said Mike Bryan, former president of Penguin India, will replace Davidar as CEO of Penguin Canada.<br /><br />The announcement comes a day after Penguin said on Tuesday that Rundle has settled her sexual harassment lawsuit with Davidar and the publishing company amicably. She had had sought $523,000 from Penguin for sexual harassment for three years and then an assault by Davidar at the Frankfurt Book Fair in October.<br /><br />A spokesperson for Penguin said on Tuesday that "everything has been settled" amicably. It was not known how much Penguin Canada and Davidar will pay Rundle. Davidar's lawyer Peter Downard also e-mailed to media outlets on Tuesday, saying, "We can now advise that all allegations have been addressed and all matters resolved to the satisfaction of all parties.

Following the lawsuit last month, Davidar had admitted only to a "consensual flirtatious relationship" with Rundle. <br /><br />"David Davidar has not sexually harassed anyone and has not assaulted anyone...," his lawyer had said in a statement June 20. Davidar, who started Penguin operations in India in the mid-1980s and was made president of Penguin Canada in 2004, is likely to return to India with his wife Rachna soon.</p>
