Item 9A. Controls and Procedures
(i) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management,
including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, regarding the effectiveness of our
disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a–15(e) and 15d–15(e) under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended). Based upon this evaluation, our principal executive officer and
principal financial officer concluded, as of the end of the period covered by this report, December 31,
2010, that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
(ii) Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
(a) Management’s annual report on internal control over financial reporting
Our management report on internal control over financial reporting appears on page F-2.
(b) Report of registered public accounting firm
The report of KPMG LLP, our independent registered public accounting firm, on internal control over
financial reporting appears on page F-4.
(c) Changes in internal control over financial reporting
We reviewed our internal control over financial reporting at December 31, 2010. As a result of the
Transaction, we have begun to integrate certain business processes and systems of the Acquired
Business. Accordingly, certain changes have been made and will continue to be made to our internal
controls over financial reporting until such time as this integration is complete. In reliance on
interpretive guidance issued by the SEC staff, management has chosen to exclude disclosure of
changes in internal control over financial reporting related to the Acquired Business, and will include
its assessment of internal control over financial reporting for the Acquired Business in our Annual
Report on Form 10-K for our fiscal year ending December 31, 2011.
There have been no other changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in an
evaluation thereof that occurred during the last fiscal quarter of 2010 that materially affected, or is
reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Item 9B. Other Information
None.
