<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">Thanks for your question. As discussed on the last call, based on feedback from the WT, the leadership team has decided not to conduct consensus calls prior to publishing the Initial Report. This provides
the group more time for discussion and does not require the WT to feel “locked into” a position prior to public comment. For more information on the details, you can review the call recording

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">Question: The initially planned “consensus call” on non-capital cities will be subject to the next call then? I am asking as it was originally planned for Sep 5<sup>th</sup> – but obviously no “consensus”
has been reached (not even close).<br>
