   OPINION OF THE COURT

Order affirmed, with costs. The Appellate Division properly concluded that there was a novation which extinguished the old agreement and relegated plaintiffs to an action for breach of the new agreement (Northville Indus. Corp. v Fort Neck Oil Terms. Corp., 100 AD2d 865, 867, affd 64 NY2d 930).

Concur: Chief Judge Wachtler and Judges Meyer, Simons, Kaye, Alexander, Titone and Hancock, Jr.
