[NAGDU] Uber cancels again

[Raul Gallegos - NAGDU]

Hello mike, and thank you for your insightful question. We as an 
organization have passed a couple of resolutions during this convention and 
currently, things are moving in the background. We have not made this 
public because as of right now, we do not have much information to report. 
What I am able to say is that we are trying some new strategies with Uber 
and Lyft. Thank you.
