Chris O’Connell: Great. That’s helpful. And as far as capital levels go, I mean, you guys have pretty good TC here, should be building going forward? It sounds like M&A is probably set on pause for now. Any appetite for utilizing a buyback, or kind of holding out for loan growth right now?

Carl Carlson: I think from our perspective, letting capital build at this point and support growth in all of our markets is the right thing to do.

Chris O’Connell: Great. Appreciate the time. Thank you.

Paul Perrault: Thank you.

Operator: This concludes our question-and-answer session. I’d like to turn the conference back over to Mr. Perrault for any closing remarks.

Paul Perrault: Thank you, Emily and thank you all for joining us this afternoon. We look forward to talking with you again next quarter. Have a good day.

Operator: The conference has concluded. Thank you for attending today’s presentation. You may now disconnect.
