If the results indeed were obtained and were positive and useful it
is strange that Defkalion did not pay up according to its contract.
Rossi said repeatedly that he will only be paid after he delivers
the 1 MW reactor. He has not delivered it, so Defkalion does not
have to pay him yet. I do not know what the dispute is but no one
has said they "did not pay" according to the contract.

OK, maybe you are right about the precise phrase "did not pay",
though I feel I have read that phrase in this regard somewhere. I
can not find the reference at the moment. It could just be my bad
memory. I can't trust my memory any more. Also, it may have been an
inference by someone posting, not from Rossi himself.
The problem causing the contract cancellation was stated by Rossi in
August to be "just financial", "... not personal, nor technological,
nor scientific". His delivery was slated for October, so it would
seem that he has not violated that provision. See the following:

Dear Georgehants:
Prof. Stremmenos has tested our E-Cats many times in Bologna and has
made a very good work; I do not know what has been done in Greece
from Deflalion with the documents made by Prof. Stremmenos; also
other officers of defkalion made tests in Bologna, for this purpose.
The work has been good, as well as has been good the work that
Defkalion made to get authorizations, I suppose, even if it has never
been my business; the problems which caused the cancellation of the
contract are just financial.
By the way, the report of the last test made by the Greek Scientist
Christos Stremmenos has been published, the work has been very good,
and my personal relationship with Prof. Stremmenos is good. We hope
in future to make again a good work in Greece.
When a verdict will be issued regarding the suit in course between
Defkalion and us will be published all will be clear. Now I prefer
not to enter in particulars, but, again, the issue is just financial,
not personal, nor technological, nor scientific.
Warm Regards,
A.R.

Perhaps the August "financial problem" was in regards to a milestone
payment, and the result of events in July, 2011. See the following

Was offline a couple of days. Mayme, its not new to you. Just saw
this citation on a swedish website, it may help to explain why
Defkalion did not pay EFA srl (Rossis wife), and Rossi was upset.
citation:
The Licence and Technology Transfer Agreement (The LTTA) contains a
mile stone payment arrangement. According to said arrangement,
DGT's release of the first payment to EFA is pending on that EFA
meet several technical requirements. As anticipated in the LTTA for
the purpose of determining if EFA has met said requirements, a test
was performed in late July 2011. While the test conclusively showed
that most of these requirements indeed were reached, some were not;
the most important one being full working stability of the reactor.
As provided in the LTTA, DGT therefore requested a second test.
However, EFA has refused to participate in such a test despite the
fact that such non-participation clearly constitutes a material
breach of contract. Such a test is and has always been a
prerequisite for DGT confidently going forward with the
collaboration with EFA.
