320 BOARD OF TRUSTEES [July 21 cessor agreement except for a similar possible change in the basis for CDC's royalty obligation. 4. T h e Agreement for CDC Equipment, Products and Related Services will provide a new, more powerful, computer system (valued at $3.4 million) which is needed by C E R L to continue its research. T h e University will make an initial payment of $100,000 upon execution of the agreements, followed by monthly payments for maintenance and service of $25,000 for five years starting with acceptance of the equipment installation. These payments will be made from CERL's restricted funds operating budget. T h e University will accrue equity in the computer system at a uniform rate over the five-year period with full title in the equipment vesting in the University at the end of this period. I recommend that the comptroller and the secretary be authorized to execute agreements in accordance with the foregoing. On motion of Mrs. Day, this recommendation was approved by the following vote: Aye, Mrs. Day, Dr. Donoghue, Mr. Forsyth, Mr. Hahn, Mr. Howard, Mr. Madden, Mrs. Shepherd, Mr. Stone; no, none; absent, Mr. Logan, Governor Thompson.
