Future payments of regular quarterly dividends by us are at the discretion of our Board of Directors and will be subject
to our future needs and uses of cash, which could include investments in operations, the repayment of debt, and share
repurchase programs. In addition, the terms of our and our subsidiaries’ existing and future indebtedness and the laws
of jurisdictions under which those subsidiaries are organized limit the payment of dividends, loan repayments and other
distributions to us under many circumstances.
