From: Marty O'Boyle [mailto:moboyle@commerce-group.com] Sent: Monday, October 30, 2017 8:35 PM To: OConnor, Joanne M. <JOConnor@jonesfoster.com> Cc: Jonathan O'Boyle <joboyle@oboylelawfirm.com>; William Ring <wring@commerce-group.com>; Brenda Russell <brussell@commerce-group.com>; Nick Taylor <ntaylor@oboylelawfirm.com>; Giovani Mesa <gmesa@oboylelawfirm.com>; 'robertrivas@comcast.net' <robertrivas@comcast.net> Subject: Gulfstream\O'Boyle - Settlement Agreement This message originated from outside your organization ________________________________ Joanne: Attached is a redraft of the Settlement Agreement (the “SA”) which you sent to Bill Ring by email on October 26, 2017. It may be a bit rough. I need to go over it again. I am sending it to counsel for any comments that they may have. After much thought and considering all factors, including the carve-outs, I have simplified the SA. IN that connection, I point out the below, which I believe are the substantive changes to your draft (utilizing the same numbered paragraphs as in the attached): 2. I have provided a release to the Town, the Commissioners, etc. and the other Defendants in the various records suits. The schedule of open records cases (a draft is attached – please review) excludes Case #4474 as discussed. In this connection, I ask you to begin the preparation of Dismissals with prejudice with each party bearing its own fees and costs. 3. I have provided for a General Release from (what I have defined as) the “Gulf Stream Parties” to (what I have defined as) the “O’Boyle Parties”. The above changes emanate from my thoughts regarding the following: A. The issue with my Insurer. Assuming the attached draft works, that issue now goes away as an open issue. An alternative, suggested by Jeff Hochman, which you seemed to reject, would be an Indemnity. B. I have eliminated the concept of the “Joining Parties”. After much thought, it made the agreement much more complex than necessary. Any extraneous cases (e.g.: the Sweetapple Slander Case (the “SSC”)) could be handled separately. So that you know, I am open to discussing the SSC and any other extraneous cases, at any time, if requested to do so. Joanne, the attached should work. Let’s look at what it accomplishes: * It gets rid of the Records Litigation as aforesaid. * It gets rid of the “Insurance Issue”, which I (reluctantly) take on. * It provides for the withdrawal of all existing unfulfilled requests, which eliminates the possibility of future litigation in connection therewith. * It discourages future Records Requests. I am prepared to address any issues or items which you may raise to the extent not addressed or unsatisfactorily addressed in the attached document. Assuming (conceptually) that the attached is acceptable, as I see it, the only remaining issue is what we have been referring to as the “Jon” issue, which I hope to work out with your side and Judge Hazouri on Friday. Let’s get done! :) Of course, the content of this email and the attached document are sent for discussion purposes; and neither party shall be bound by any settlement until the SA is properly signed by me and the Town. Thank you for working with me toward our common goal. UNFORTUNATELY, I RECEIVE TOO MANY EMAILS ON A DAILY BASIS. THE RESULT IS THAT I DO NOT HAVE A CHANCE TO REVIEW THEM ALL; AND MANY I DO NOT SEE AT ALL. I ENCOURAGE YOU TO CONTINUE TO SEND ME EMAILS; AND, IF YOU DON’T HEAR FROM ME WITHIN 48 HOURS, I URGE YOU TO CALL ME. I ALSO ASK YOU TO CC MS. BRENDA RUSSELL (BRUSSELL@COMMERCE-GROUP.COM <mailto:BRUSSELL@COMMERCE-GROUP.COM> ) OR TO CALL HER (954 570 3513). THANK YOU FOR YOUR COOPERATION. Martin E. O'Boyle, Commerce Group, Inc. 1280 W.
