They did that restruction in 2012.They have brought themselves 3 to complete that restruction at which point they are going have to refinance.I think whether or not that will be succesful depends on another thing,whether or not they can make the cuts they need to make,but also what the market is going to be like in 2015,where we don't really have any certainty that the liquidity 1 in the debt market will overturn by then to allow them to do a refinancing.
