A: Based upon the information given in your question, it is impossible to give you an educated answer. You have to read the agreement and see what is says about when you get your share. If you are still unsure, then take the agreement to an attorney and have him review it with you.

A: There is no statute of limitations, however, failure to excercise your rights could be considered a waiver. It really depenmds on what preovisions you are trying to enforce. Speak to an attorney to interpret your agreement.
