K4 hold up was their request to change the Teamsters bylaws which would favor them over other Teamster carriers..... possibly giving them an advantage in bidding simular contracts. Like another carrier coming in making 1/2 as much willing to do the same contract and bidding against you. Teamsters were trying to make it a level playing field to prevent whipsawing one carrier against another.
