Page 10 of 10

Jason Miele: We’re seeing freight continue to tick downward from our Q2 levels into October November, which is a positive for us. That’s good. We’re seeing moderation in pulp, but cautious that there can be a continued inflation across our basket of inputs. But those two big ones, like I said, we’re seeing moderation in pulp and freight continued to tick down, which is a positive.

Unidentified Analyst: Okay, thank you.

Operator: Thank you. That concludes our question-and-answer session. I would like to hand back now for some closing remarks.

Aaron Erter: Just want to thank everyone for being on the call. Just in closing, our focus remains on being a growth company. As I said before, we’re going to continue to focus on what we can control, which is working safely, grow above the market by leveraging our value proposition. We’re going to continue to invest in our key strategic growth initiatives. So with that, thank you, everyone.

Operator: Ladies and gentlemen, that concludes our conference for today. Thank you all for participating. You may now disconnect your lines.
