The attachment shows that, even under the most favorable conditions in the deferra= context (20 year deferral of tax on Tufts gain but full TRA benefits begin=ing in 21st year at a 7.5% di=count rate), the value of TRA benefit is $16.5 million for Leon. Other than by altering the discount rate and the tax rate=, I don't think the TRA benefit in the deferral (guarantee) scenario will get much b=tter. I will leave to you to determine whether that might be e=ough to overcome the non-tax aspects of the guarantee.
