Mr. Paul Stanley:
It will because of the 2,000. On the figure of 3.940, there those we cannot contact, which may seem a little strange, but customers have moved on, moved their accounts elsewhere and left the country. We have had a tracking company trying to track down the 100 and are going to hand the task to a second tracking company to try to track them down. The money for those we cannot find will go into an escrow fund. Ultimately, if nobody claims it, it will end up going to appropriate charities. It will not be left with the bank.
