Our success depends upon our ability to develop new products and services, integrate acquired products and services and enhance our existing products and services. Acquisitions present many risks, and we may not realize the financial and strategic goals that were contemplated at the time of any transaction. We may not be able to protect our intellectual property rights. Third parties have claimed and, in the future, may claim infringement or misuse of intellectual property rights and/or breach of license agreement provisions. We may need to change our pricing models to compete successfully. We may be unable to compete effectively within the highly competitive software industry. Disruptions of our indirect sales channel could affect our future operating results. Charges to earnings resulting from past acquisitions may adversely affect our operating results. We may be unable to hire enough qualified employees or we may lose key employees. Our international sales and operations subject us to additional risks that can adversely affect our operating results. We may experience foreign currency gains and losses. Our periodic workforce restructurings can be disruptive. Oracle On Demand and CRM On Demand may not be successful. We might experience significant errors or security flaws in our products and services. We may not receive significant revenues from our current research and development efforts for several years, if at all. Our sales to government clients subject us to risks including early termination, audits, investigations, sanctions and penalties. Business disruptions could affect our operating results. There are risks associated with our outstanding indebtedness. Adverse litigation results could affect our business. We may have exposure to additional tax liabilities.
