HLTH has the option to terminate the services that it provides to us, in whole or in part, if it ceases to provide such services for itself, upon at least 180 days’ written notice to us. We paid HLTH approximately $3,410,000 under the Services Agreement in 2008 and approximately $3,340,000 in 2007.
