4.) Not stingy (although this is more of a mandate from upper management)
So I have a lot of difficulty grasping the idea negotiations going that sour.

Like I said, has he ever been in a situation like we are currently seeing? All reports are that he is being stingy with where he currently sits (~6.5M), so that right there is contrary to what we've traditionally seen from Treliving.
