A copy of the July 19, 2012 press release relating to the above event is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
The Registrant is furnishing the information contained in this Report, including Exhibit 99.1, pursuant to Item 7.01 of Form 8-K promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). This information shall not be deemed to be “filed” with the SEC or incorporated by reference into any other filing with the SEC. In addition, this Form 8-K report and Exhibit 99.1 contain forward-looking statements addressing the spinoff, the operation, business and prospects of the Registrant and ICTI following the spinoff and other expectations, prospects, estimates and other matters that are dependent upon future events or developments. These matters are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected, anticipated or implied. These risks and uncertainties include uncertainties regarding the spinoff, including the timing and terms of the spinoff and whether the spinoff will be completed, and uncertainties regarding the impacts on the Registrant and the market for their respective securities if the spinoff is accomplished. In addition, the Registrant and ICTI are subject to additional risks and uncertainties, as described in the Registrant’s Form 10-K, Form 10-Q and Form 8-K reports (including all amendments to those reports) and exhibits to those reports.
