We are now reaching a critical point in terms of not being able to fill the calls that are currently on the board.

Once these contracts are gone, they’re gone. We are rapidly losing market-share which means that we will not have the bargaining power to maintain our agreements in future, and the contractors will be able to start demanding roll-backs.
