The matters described below are not all of the lawsuits or arbitrations to which we are subject. In some of the matters, very large or indeterminate amounts, including punitive damages, may be sought. Various jurisdictions and arbitration forums permit considerable variation in the assertion of monetary damages or other relief. The jurisdictions or forums may permit claimants not to specify the monetary damages sought or may permit claimants to state only that the amount sought is sufficient to invoke the jurisdiction or forum. In addition, the jurisdictions or forums may permit claimants to allege monetary damages in amounts well exceeding reasonably possible verdicts in the jurisdiction or forum for similar matters. We believe that the monetary relief which may be specified in a lawsuit or arbitration matter bears little relevance to its merits or disposition value due to this variability in pleadings and our experience in handling and resolving numerous claims over an extended period of time.</span></div><div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:11.25pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Calibri',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">The outcome of a matter and the amount or range of potential loss at particular points in time may be difficult to ascertain.
