PER CURIAM.

The direct appeal is affirmed in all respects as is the cross- appeal in all respects with regard to the nature and amount of attorney’s fees which were awarded below to Curtis Whitehouse.

We find that the issues initially raised on cross-appeal by Curtis Whitehouse regarding awarding the interest and reasonable costs sought by Whitehouse were rendered moot, once an agreement was reached between the parties as to the outstanding amounts owed and Progressive Select Insurance Company paid same, which was after Whitehouse filed his initial notice of cross-appeal.

Accordingly, that aspect of the cross-appeal is dismissed as moot.

AFFIRMED, in part; and DISMISSED as MOOT, in part.

EDWARDS C.J., and LAMBERT and HARRIS, JJ., concur.
