In addition to the foregoing, various legal actions, claims and governmental inquiries and proceedings
are pending or may be instituted or asserted in the future against us and our subsidiaries. Litigation is
subject to many uncertainties, and the outcome of the individual litigated matters is not predictable with
assurance. It is possible that certain of the actions, claims, inquiries or proceedings, including those
discussed above, could be decided unfavorably to us or any of our subsidiaries involved. Although the
amount of liability with respect to these matters cannot be ascertained, potential liability in excess of
related accruals is not expected to materially affect our consolidated financial position, results of
operations or cash flows, but it could be material in the period in which it is recorded.
