Mr. Chairman, the process involved, on a general basis anyway, is that the liabilities that exist at the time we sign the agreement are our responsibility. You cannot transfer liabilities. Anything that happens after the signing date is the responsibility of the contractors. That is the deal. We are not asking for the contractors to take on our liabilities. We would work with them to resolve the liabilities.
