AAG had the opportunity to extend the real contract for a couple of years now, but hasn't. If AWAC hadn't executed the "escape clause", then AWAC would already be done and AAG wouldn't have cared.
I know that. I know the announcement you're referring to, and you're making a lot of deductions based on a micodium of information.
You are proving my point. Some of you speak as though you have a seat at the executives table. You don't. You get tiny crumbs of information here and there, and think it's enough to make a determination about the future. If you think the extension clause is as simple as you are making it, or that from CDs email you have all the relevant information, you have your head up your a$$.
