36m.

With 20M upfront.

I don’t see Kelly giving that much.

number doesn't mean as much without how it is being paid.

Lump sum will always be lower since you could have growth on that money if it sits invested.

If it is lump sum, I would expect 20-25 million. Paid out full over time, I'd guess closer to 30.

But these are just guesses based on the total amount and both sides wanting it done.

If you're Kelly, why would you agree for anything less than the full 53?

$53 million, why would Kelly accept less when he’s guaranteed that?

Sounds right. Good result for both sides.

I'm curious if they brought in a mediator. There are a few in BR that handle this dollar amount routinely.
