Unfavorable research and negative publicity could adversely affect our sales of VMS products Regulatory matters governing our industry could have a significant negative effect on our business We depend on a limited number of customers for most of our net sales and the loss of one or more of these customers could reduce our net sales A significant, unexpected disruption of operations at our facilities could adversely affect our financial position, results of operations or cash flows Our industry is highly competitive and price competition could diminish our sales volumes and revenues and our gross profits Our inability to continue to execute our business plan could adversely affect our business We rely on third-party suppliers for some important ingredients and products that we cannot manufacture A rise in raw material prices could increase our product costs and dilute our margins. If we are unable to protect our intellectual property rights, our ability to compete could be negatively impacted The unfavorable resolution of pending product liability claims or of any additional product liability claims brought in the future could have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows Product recalls costs could hurt our business We have limited long-term human consumption experience for some products; if adverse reactions from long-term consumption of these products occur, we could be subject to product liability claims We depend on key personnel for our current and future performance Rising insurance costs and changes in the availability of insurance could have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows Our 2002 restructuring could result in significant tax exposures Our substantial level of indebtedness could adversely affect our financial condition and prevent us from fulfilling our obligations on the Notes The right of holders of Notes to receive payments on the Notes and guarantees is subordinated to our and the guarantors senior debt. The indenture for the Notes and our New Credit Facility impose significant operating and financial restrictions, which may prevent us from capitalizing on business opportunities and taking some actions. Claims of creditors of our non-guarantor subsidiaries will generally have priority with respect to the assets and earnings of these subsidiaries over the claims of holders of the Notes. We may not be able to purchase the Notes upon a change of control. We are controlled by our principal stockholders, which may have interests in conflict with the interests of holders of the Notes. The Notes and guarantees may be voided under specific legal circumstances.
