I just read the rest of this. I wanted to make sure we had a smooth transition. As far as I knew, you weren't going in.. so I thought 8 days without Steve is too long .. and I'd go make a short speech about you moving on etc. I'll call you. I don't need to make this speech tomorrow.. I just didn't want a rudderless ship. From: Steve Hanson [mailto: Sent: Monday, November 11, 2013 5:51 PM To: Barry Stemlicht Cc: Dan Yih Subject: announcement PROT0 Barry, I would like to agree to Dan taking his new role. However, I'm not sure it's currently in the company's interest. As you already know, I also disagree with Gersten taking a job as COO. You and I agree that we are done with each other and I would propose the following: I resign effective immediately, we exchange mutual releases that are end of the world releases, no further obligations of any sort . If you want to buy my stock, you can if not, I'll keep it. I feel strongly that the documents to this agreement be signed before any announcement. The documents are being prepared and will be available Tuesday.
