And it's something that we, Glenfarm, saw as a fair protection to the state, and we agreed to have it implemented as part of our contract. Again, this is a mechanism that is only exercisable at the state's option. In terms of Glenfarn's ability to seek recourse or any kind of compensation, we don't have that mechanism.
