I understand we have a difference of opinion. friends sometimes disagree, I shook on the 20 so you have no further obligation, none, I am willing to have brad karp hear both sides. as my view , you andi had an agreement. on phaidon /publishing, and then a long standing what you say is 28 , which is correct AFTer TAx. ,37 pre. . that was our numbers. I was clear what i thought the transactions were worth. far less than full. alanetc. , had you said i will pay you only 20. i would have said ill pass. you never told me that 50-60 the number that i put on the table at the very beginning was not right. you asked that i lay out my plan step by step. and what i believe would have been the fair thing to do is say to me, I will pay you only 20 if you do asiask, not tell me for the first time only after i laid it all out. had it not been you, 1 would have required payment in escrow. BEFORE _ fyithe reason I sent you an invoice so that if you decided that you wanted me to continue this year . it would be applied to last years income. I think today was a beginiing for you.
