    And don't let me leave out territories because I could be guilty of that, but territories as well, in the compact, Guam and the Virgin Islands, and we certainly welcome the others. So, to start out about this amended 60-day rule, I want to point out that although we often refer to it as a new rule, it actually is a rule that's been in existence, and it was merely amended. And it was amended for good reason.

    All rights reserved. 8 Leading in the moment and leading for the future. And then there was that moment when unexpectedly the CEO David Benton took emergent medical leave and Phil stepped in as the interim CEO. A memorable moment for Phil, myself and Tom Wilde legal counsel. We were all very grateful for such good succession planning, bylaws and policies that provided the needed guidance.
