Paul said that is correct. There is one issue with Midland(sprinklers)who feel they are owed$22,000, We have agreed to go to the arbitrator on that issue; if he rules against use we will have to pay it. Midland is asking for direct:pay but Stone has already paid them which is why Stone will not settle until that issue is resolved. Based on the information Paul has seen is seems that Midland missed the addendum. We are going to pick up 5-6 vendors to complete the remainingwork: elevator sub, epoxy floors, landscaping,track surface, basketball court surface, _ Peter asked if all those subs have been paid satisfactorily to date, they won't come after us for more money? Paul said they will not. They have agreed to this. We also took a lump sum settlement for some construction items that remain. Damages is the third item to be decided.
