SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Certain statements contained in this report on Form 8-K and in Exhibit 99.1 are “forward-looking statements” intended to qualify for the safe harbor from liability established by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such forward-looking statements and financial or other business targets are subject to certain risks and uncertainties. Actual results and trends may differ materially from historical or anticipated results depending on a variety of factors, including but not limited to risks and uncertainties relating to: fluctuations in cost and availability of raw materials; impact of competitive products and pricing; fluctuations in demand affecting sales to customers; loss of significant contract(s) or customer(s); collection of receivables from customers; selling prices; business mix shift; worldwide and local economic conditions; changes in tax laws and regulations; fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates and other risks associated with foreign operations; ability of the Company to generate sustained productivity improvement; successful integration of acquisitions and successful execution of divestitures; changes in customer order patterns; customer and supplier concentrations; the financial condition and inventory strategies of customers; timely development and market acceptance of new products; investment in development activities and new production facilities; ability of the Company to achieve and sustain targeted cost reductions; successful implementation of new manufacturing technologies and installation of manufacturing equipment; disruptions in information technology systems; successful installation of new or upgraded information technology systems; volatility of capital and credit markets; impairment of capitalized assets, including goodwill and other intangibles; credit risks; ability of the Company to obtain adequate financing arrangements and to maintain access to capital; fluctuations in interest and tax rates; fluctuations in pension, insurance and employee benefit costs; impact of legal proceedings and environmental, health and safety laws; changes in governmental regulations; changes in political conditions; impact of epidemiological events on the economy and the Company's customers and suppliers; acts of war, terrorism, and natural disasters; and other factors.

The Company believes that the most significant risk factors that could affect its financial performance in the near-term include (1) the degree to which higher costs can be offset with productivity measures and/or passed on to customers through selling price increases, without a significant loss of volume; (2) the impact of competitors' actions, including pricing, expansion in key markets, and product offerings; (3) the impact of economic conditions on underlying demand for the Company's products; and (4) the impact of changes in tax laws and regulations throughout the world.

For a more detailed discussion of these and other factors, see Part I, Item 1A. “Risk Factors” and Part II, Item 7. “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and Financial Condition” in the Company’s most recent Form 10-K, filed on February 28, 2011, and subsequent quarterly reports on Form 10-Q. The forward-looking statements included in this Form 8-K are made only as of the date of this Form 8-K, and the Company undertakes no obligation to update the forward-looking statements to reflect subsequent events or circumstances.

The financial information presented in the news release included as Exhibit 99.1 to this Form 8-K is preliminary and unaudited.
