acquisition and the possibility that the transaction costs may be greater than anticipated;
(x) unexpected outcomes of existing or new litigation involving the Company; (xi)
changes in accounting policies and practices; and (xii) the economic impact of exceptional
weather occurrences such as tornadoes, hurricanes, floods, and blizzards. These
risks and uncertainties should be considered in evaluating forward-looking statements
