Billionaire bond manager Bill Gross has sold part of his famed stamp collection for $4.5 million and will donate some of the proceeds to a philanthropic arm of his former employer, Pacific Investment Management Co, which he is now suing.

Gross, who left Pimco in September 2014 and is now a portfolio manager at Janus Capital Group Inc, will donate $2 million to the Pimco Foundation.

Last October, Gross sued Pimco, a unit of German insurer Allianz SE and his employer for more than four decades, for more than $200 million, claiming he was pushed out so other executives could divvy up his bonus.
