1Opinion of the Court

Ray, Judge.

Canton Plaza, Inc. and Chaim Oami (“the plaintiffs”) appeal from an award of attorney fees and expenses in favor of Regions Bank, Inc. (“the Bank”) under OCGA § 9-11-68, Georgia’s offer of settlement statute. The plaintiffs contend that the trial court erred in awarding the Bank its attorney fees and expenses because the Bank failed to segregate its recoverable fees and expenses from those which were nonrecoverable, and because the award, as against plaintiff Oami, was inappropriate. For the following reasons, we affirm in part, vacate in part, and remand the case with direction.
