If our information technology systems are impaired, our business could be interrupted, our reputation could be
harmed and we may experience lost revenues and increased costs and expenses.
We rely on our information technology systems to process transactions with our customers, including tracking lease
payments on merchandise, and to manage other important functions of our business. Failures of our systems—whether
due to intentional malfeasance by outside parties or to accidental causes, such as ―bugs,‖ crashes, operator error or
catastrophic events—could seriously impair our ability to operate our business. If our information technology systems
are impaired, our business (and that of our franchisees) could be interrupted, our reputation could be harmed, we may
experience lost revenues or sales and we could experience increased costs and expenses to remediate the problem.
