Thank you, Mr. Chairman. That would be a concern if we proceeded with a lot of independent contracts with individual entrepreneurs in communities. That's one of the reasons why we think it makes better sense to put this out as a package so that when that kind of situation occurs - and small business has a high incidence of failure across the country -- it's the large contractor who has responsibility for each of the community operations who would have to go and find a way to get another franchise operator so that services continue to be delivered, because that would part of the arrangement we would enter into.
