Dear Carlos,
 Thank you for the suggestions. TMD was done with considerable amount of
equilibration and for 10ns. And yes, the final structures have reached a
rmsd of 0.558A. Trajectories look good and as expected. And, for NEB the
final(close form) and initial(open form) crystal structures are
available.

Thank you,
