This slide and the next slide list some of the details of the "Monumental Mega-mergers" and the regulatory changes.

Mark Neumann has already provided an excellent overview of the consolidation and regulatory changes; therefore, we will skip through this slide and the next slide.

It is important to note that the DaVita/Gambro deal requires DaVita to use certain Gambro products for a minimum of 10 years. In addition, Fresenius is vertically integrated in that they manufacture, stock, and sell mostly their own equipment and supplies to their own dialysis clinics.
