pretty valuable for us to be here in the room and<br />

appreciate it.<br />

While the membership <strong>of</strong> AGC is largely not<br />

very active in the real estate transaction arena,<br />

particularly internationally, we did reach out to<br />

some <strong>of</strong> our industry partners from the real estate<br />

arena, some that work with you, some that don't to<br />

see if we could get their assistance in identifying<br />

what is new and what are some <strong>of</strong> the trends that<br />

they are facing.<br />

Basically, we got two responses. One was<br />

kind <strong>of</strong> along the lines <strong>of</strong> Steve's nothing new. And<br />

secondarily, it's really a little bit hard to<br />

capture specific trends across such a huge variety<br />

<strong>of</strong> market places with different regulatory<br />

environments, et cetera.<br />

So, Regan and I both shared a great<br />

challenge in trying to identify something meaningful<br />

that was new trend-wise. One thing did pop up from<br />

the public sector domestically that we thought was,<br />

or at least I thought was worth mentioning and<br />

that's created a lot <strong>of</strong> buzz recently, and that is<br />

the whole move towards enhanced used leases, or<br />

EULs. Particularly out <strong>of</strong> DoD and Army Corps <strong>of</strong><br />

Engineers, it's been a pretty interesting activity<br />
