Interruption or failure of our infrastructure could hurt our ability to effectively perform our daily operations and provide our products and services, which could damage our reputation and harm our operating results. If our satellites fail to operate as intended, our ability to collect imagery and market our products and services successfully could be materially and adversely affected. We are highly dependent upon our ImageLibrary and our failure or inability to protect and maintain the earth imagery content stored in our ImageLibrary could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. The market may not accept our imagery products and services. You should not rely upon our historic growth rates as an indicator of future growth. We face competition that may cause us to have to reduce our prices or to lose market share. Changes in U.S. or foreign laws and regulations could have a material adverse effect on our operations and financial condition. Failure to obtain or maintain regulatory approvals could result in service interruptions or could impede us from executing our business plan. Global economic conditions may adversely impact our business, operating results or financial condition. We are dependent on foreign resellers for our international revenue. If these resellers fail to market or sell our products and services successfully, our business would be harmed. We depend on third parties to provide us with aerial imagery. If we are unable to obtain aerial imagery at sufficient resolution or on commercially reasonable terms, our ability to supplement our content library may be harmed, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Our international business exposes us to risks relating to increased regulation and political or economic instability in foreign markets, which could adversely affect our revenue. We depend upon our ability to attract, train and retain employees. Our inability to do so, or the loss of key personnel, would seriously harm our business. Satellites have limited operational lives and are expensive to replace. Loss of, or damage to, a satellite may require us to seek additional financing from outside sources, which we may be unable to obtain on favorable terms, if at all. Limited insurance coverage and availability may prevent us from obtaining insurance to cover all risks of loss. We have a substantial amount of indebtedness, which may adversely affect our cash flow and our ability to operate our business, including our ability to incur additional indebtedness. We expect that the price of our common stock will fluctuate substantially.
