filing financial information with the SEC for acquired businesses and
difficulties encountered in accurately predicting the future financial
performance of acquired businesses); risks associated with our
substantial leverage and restrictive covenants in our debt agreements
that may be in place from time to time; risks associated with our
worldwide operations, including foreign employment and labor matters
