Yeah. The terms are used interchangably.
As for the number of days, that depends on when each of the investors who filed the suit bought their shares. IIRC it was a couple of months between those tweets and when the deal was finally completed, so he might end up paying out a few hundred bucks per share for the earliest buyers.
