To all Response I received from the company regarding the IPO. Only a minority of the shares of WCG will be offered to the public - the majority of the shares will continue to be held by The Williams Companies (WMB). While WMB shareholders will not be given preferential rights to buy shares at the public offering price, it is anticipated that we can add value for our shareholders by creating additional tools to use in the capital markets as we aggressively grow our communications and energy businesses. A separate public stock should improve the market's efficiency in valuing our communications business, and also provide a currency that can facilitate certain types of acquisitions.
