Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
All of the statements in this release, other than historical facts, are forward-looking statements
made in reliance upon the safe harbor of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995,
including, without limitation, the statements made concerning the Companys intent to pay an annual
cash dividend and the Companys financial ability and sources to fund the dividend program. As a
general matter, forward-looking statements are those focused upon anticipated events or trends,
expectations, and beliefs relating to matters that are not historical in nature. Such
forward-looking statements are subject to uncertainties and factors relating to the Companys
operations and business environment, all of which are difficult to predict and many of which are
beyond the control of the Company. The Boards expectation that dividends will continue to be paid
on a quarterly basis assumes that the Companys financial condition will permit the payment under
Delaware law; that its operations will continue to generate sufficient cash flow to warrant the
payment of a dividend and that market conditions and applicable laws and regulations make payment
of a dividend appropriate. Any future dividend payments will depend upon the judgment of the Board,
based upon the best interests of the Company, its stockholders and other constituents, and will be
made only at the Boards discretion. Further risks that could cause actual results to differ
materially from those matters expressed in or implied by such forward-looking statements are set
forth under Risk Factors in the Companys Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008
and the Companys Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2009. The Company does not
undertake, and hereby disclaims, any duty to update these forward-looking statements, although its
situation and circumstances may change in the future.
