No, it does not.

No, we have not as yet drafted a contract for customers. I frankly wasn't
certain as to the demand for colocation. I knew that it had been a bone of
contention for working with Pacific Bell in the past, and as a result worked
with various parties here to resolve the issue. As soon as I hear from a
serious customer requesting a co-located solution as part of their
attachment to the NAP, I'll pull together what is needed from a contractual
standpoint, and put a draft on the web. We have the physical arrangements
made and reserved, if you will, in case there is a true demand.
