                OPINION BY ADMINISTRATIVE JUDGE THRASHER

       The parties have resolved their dispute and request that the Board enter judgment
in favor of appellant.

        It is the Board’s decision, pursuant to 41 U.S.C. §§ 7105(e), 7108(b), and the
parties’ stipulation and agreement, that the appeal is sustained. In the nature of a consent
judgment, the Board makes a monetary award to appellant in the amount of $1,250,000.
This amount is inclusive of Contract Disputes Act interest. No further interest shall be
paid. Each party shall bear its own costs, including attorney fees. Appellant waives any
right it may have to attorney fees under the Equal Access to Justice Act or any other
authority.
