If we are unable to establish new laundry facility leases, renew our existing laundry facility leases or retain relationships with our customers who are not subject to leases, our business, results of operations, cash flows and financial condition could be adversely affected. We face strong competition in the outsourced laundry facilities management industry. Our cash flows may not be sufficient to finance the significant capital expenditures required to replace equipment, implement new technology, or make incentive payments to property managers. If we are unable to continue our relationships with Whirlpool Corporation and other equipment suppliers, our revenues could be reduced, and our ability to meet customer requirements could be materially and adversely affected. A decrease in multi-unit housing sector occupancy rates in the markets in which we conduct business could adversely affect our facilities management revenue. If we are unable to comply with our debt service requirements under existing or future indebtedness, our indebtedness could become payable immediately. If we are unable to access capital on acceptable financial terms, our ability to consummate acquisitions will be limited. We may have difficulties integrating future acquisitions into our business. Our internal controls over financial reporting may not be adequate and our independent auditors may not be able to certify as to their effectiveness, which could have a significant and adverse effect on our business and reputation. Our Intirion products may be susceptible to product liability claims for which our current levels of insurance coverage may not be adequate. Inability to protect our trademarks and other proprietary rights could adversely impact our competitive position. We are dependent on key personnel, and the loss of any of our key personnel could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. Our financial results have been and could further be negatively impacted by impairments of goodwill or other intangible assets required by SFAS 142 and the application of future accounting policies or interpretations of existing accounting policies. We face risks associated with environmental regulation. We are controlled by a concentrated group of stockholders, whose interests could be in conflict with yours. Provisions in our charter and bylaws, Delaware law, and the shareholders agreement could have the effect of discouraging takeovers.
