Because of the lack of alternative bed capacity, one of the contracts was renewed upon its expiration in September 2023 and now expires in September 2028. The second direct contract with the USMS expires in September 2025. It is too early to predict the outcome of the expiration of the contract scheduled to expire in September 2025, and future developments could occur prior to the scheduled expiration date.</span></p>
