Conan O'Brien and NBC worked out their final conflict hours ago and have reached a $45 million settlement .

Conan will get a severance of $32.5 million, regardless of whether he gets another hosting gig. Meaning he could have his own show on a network like FOX.

NBC will pay $7.5 million to Conan's "Tonight Show" staff.In addition, NBC will pay a $4.5 million to the executive producer, Jeff Ross.

Conan's last show is Friday. We're told NBC hasn't decided who will replace Conan for the period between Monday and the Winter Olympics.
