We rely on the value of our brands, particularly Monster, and the costs of maintaining and enhancing our brand awareness are increasing. Our operations have been and will be affected by future global economic fluctuations. Our operating results fluctuate from quarter to quarter. We face risks relating to developing technology, including the Internet. We rely heavily on our information systems and if our access to this technology is impaired or interrupted, or we fail to further develop our technology, our business could be harmed. Our markets are highly competitive. We are vulnerable to intellectual property infringement claims brought against us by others and we may not have sufficient protection for our own intellectual property. If we are unable to protect our proprietary rights or maintain our rights to use key technologies of third parties, our business may be harmed. Computer viruses may cause our systems to incur delays or interruptions. Acquisitions could result in operating difficulties and unanticipated liabilities. We have had and may face future difficulties managing growth. Our divested businesses have agreed to indemnify us of liabilities that are related to their operations. If one or more of those businesses fails to meet its obligations, our financial condition and results of operations may be harmed. We face risks relating to our foreign operations. We depend on our key management personnel. We are influenced by a principal stockholder. We may be required to record a significant charge to earnings if our goodwill or amortizable intangible assets become impaired. Effects of anti-takeover provisions could inhibit the acquisition of Monster Worldwide by others. There is volatility in our stock price. We face risks associated with government regulation. Legal proceedings may significantly harm our business.
