Dividends
The Company has never declared or paid any dividends on its common stock. We may consider in the future the
advisability of paying dividends. However, our payment of dividends is and will continue to be restricted by or
subject to, among other limitations, applicable provisions of federal and state laws, our earnings and various
business considerations, including our financial condition, results of operations, cash flow, the level of our capital
expenditures, our future business prospects, our status as a holding company and such other matters that our Board
of Directors deems relevant. In addition, the terms of the senior credit facility and the terms of the indenture
governing the senior notes each restrict our ability to pay dividends. See “Liquidity and Capital Resources”
included in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in this
Form 10-K.
