CAL doesn't want to have to recreate XJT, they just hated the old management and wanted a new operator who was more predictable.
I'm not sure that's correct. During the earnings call Brad Rich was asked if the new 10 year CPA was a condition to the purchase of XJT, to which he responded no. That could mean that ASA still has a new CPA with Continental even if this deal falls through.
