interesting. It says that you are in final stages of negotiating large-scale project opportunities in U.S., Europe and Asia Pacific,
representing potential backlogs of 1 gigawatt. So if we can get some more details on that? And second is on a March announcement,
you won a contract to build a 100-megawatt electrolyzer with Uniper. As I understand, this was a competitive bidding process and

Question: William Chapman Peterson - JPMorgan Chase & Co, Research Division - Analyst
: Yes. Sorry about that. Sorry, you talked about -- sorry about that. You talked about raising additional potential -- potentially raising
additional financing. You talked about the DOE loans and ABL and probably you mentioned more to come in the second half of the
year. Is there a preferred means of raising, I guess, presuming you're looking at the most non-dilutive capital as possible. But what
is the preferred means at doing this as you look at the second half of the year or into next year?
