                                 ORDER
 
        On  June  14,  1993,  NCR  Corporation  filed  this  protest
   challenging the award  of a contract by the Department of the Air
   Force, pursuant  to Request  for Proposals  F19630-90-R-008.   On
   July 13, 1993, protester filed a motion requesting that the Board
   dismiss this protest without prejudice to refiling, in accordance
   with  the terms  of  the  parties'  settlement  agreement,  which
   provides:
 
 
        1.   Air  Force will  terminate  the Lot  III  contract
        awarded to Syscon, Inc., under solicitation no. F19630-
        90-R-0008.
 
        2.   Air  Force  will  award   the  contract  to   NCR,
        Incorporated.
 
        3.   NCR,  Incorporated   will  withdraw   its  protest
        presently  before the  GSBCA,  to  be  converted  to  a
        withdrawal with prejudice when the above two items have
        been accomplished.
 
        Accordingly,  this protest  is DISMISSED  WITHOUT PREJUDICE.
   Rule 28(a).   This dismissal shall convert to  one with prejudice
   as soon as respondent terminates its contract with intervenor and
   makes  an award  to protester.   The  suspension of  respondent's
   delegation of procurement authority lapses by its terms.
