“Thank you. Before you start, here's the question from the public. I'm sorry, I can't hear you.”

“I'm sorry, would you give your name and address for the radio?”
“I'm sorry, but you should have brought that up when you asked if there was a contingent.”

“If they resolve their issue by that time? That's correct.”
