The allowance for loan and lease losses may not be adequate to cover actual losses. The Company relies on communications, information, operating, and financial control systems technology from third party service providers, and an interruption in those systems may result in lost business if the Company is not be able to obtain substitute providers on terms that are as favorable if relationships with existing service providers are interrupted.
