Hunt and Eric - I don't have an objection to including language something like ...

".... BAM contends that it is owed $200,000 on account of the Asset Assignment Agreement and Employment Agreements .... the Rosemont Parties dispute that any such amounts are owed. To avoid the cost and uncertainty of protracted litigation, the parties agree to settle these disputes ...."

On the press inquiry issue, I don't think you should be limited to "no comment."

Agreed?

George

Subject: RE: BAM termination

George,

I sent the latest version to our lawyer for review.  I am not comfortable with the press inquiry exemption as that paragraph also includes non-disparagement language.  We agreed to remove the payment obligation, but in part due to the promise to be sent revised numbers.  If our numbers prove to be correct, we would like to include the forgiveness and the amount  in the agreement.

Those should be the remaining points.

Best,
Stefan

Subject: BAM termination

Stefan,

Attached is a redlined version showing that we accepted your revision on page 2. As we discussed on the phone, it is our position that any demand for money by BAM is unwarranted and inappropriate. Accordingly, we are not providing any such accounting. Further, the Rosemont Parties cannot be limited to a “no comment” if questioned by the press.

Please acknowledge that this version is acceptable to BAM and I will send a copy to Andrew for execution, the only additional change being that I will replace you with Andrew being the signatory.

Thank you.

George
