From our standpoint, it's very important. I explained that very clearly in my brief statement. If we face competition from a network that is not regulated by the federal government and that manages four times more ABMs than we do, and if we did not impose these fees but the other did so, our current clients would have a strong incentive to deal with this other service provider. From then on, they could even use our network for free. In terms of competition, we see very clearly how that situation would penalize us.
