                OPINION BY ADMINISTRATIVE JUDGE THRASHER

        The parties jointly move the Board to enter judgment in these Rule 12.2 appeals
in the amount of $35,500.00 based upon a settlement agreement between the parties
dated 24 June 2014.

        It is the Board's decision, pursuant to 41 U.S.C. §§ 7105(e), 7108(b), and the
parties' stipulation and agreement, that these appeals are sustained. In the nature of a
consent judgment, the Board makes a monetary award to appellant in the amount of
$35,500.00. In the event the government fails to pay Progressive Construction
Company, LLC (Progressive), the full settlement amount within 30 business days after
25 June 2014, the parties agree that the government shall pay Progressive interest on
the full settlement amount from that date until Progressive receives payment. Any
interest due Progressive will be calculated pursuant to 41 U.S.C. § 7109. The parties
have represented to the Board that this consent judgment will not be presented for
payment from the Judgment Fund and will be paid in accordance with the terms of the
Release and Settlement Agreement by the agency.
