Each quarter there will be a report of any accounts receivable over 90 days, and there is
also a provision that says that any accounts with outstanding amounts that are greater
than 180 days will be removed from the system and turned over to collection. We will
put an additional section on that that says we will make a report of those accounts turned
over to a collection agency at that time and send it with the quarterly report
