Volatility in global credit markets may impact our ability to obtain financing to fund acquisitions. Our Principal Stockholders hold a majority of our outstanding common stock and have interests which may conflict with interests of other stockholders. As a result of this ownership, we are a controlled company within the meaning of the NYSE rules and are exempt from certain corporate governance requirements. Future acquisitions and dispositions may not require a stockholder vote and may be material to us. The market liquidity for our common stock is relatively low and may make it difficult to purchase or sell our stock. We may suffer adverse consequences if we are deemed an investment company and we may incur significant costs to avoid investment company status. We may be subject to an additional tax as a personal holding company on future undistributed personal holding company income if we generate passive income in excess of operating expenses. Agreements and transactions involving former subsidiaries may give rise to future claims that could materially adversely impact our capital resources.
