First, the lease would be for 150 years. If you want to take off the years for building, then let us say 145 years. At the end of 145 years, we would still own the building. The agreement is we would own the building. There are so many variables at play for what options might be chosen to exercise or agree, say a decade ahead of time, or in 130 years' time, that I do not know if you could accurately plan for what would be done with the building in 150 years' time. We would own the building and there could be any number of outcomes. It would depend, given the timeframes involved, on many different factors at that time.
