and customers, including potential bankruptcies; possible adverse effects of any future suspension of normal
trade credit terms by our suppliers; potential difficulties competing with companies that have avoided their
existing contracts in bankruptcy and reorganization proceedings; successful integration of acquired or merged
businesses; the ability to achieve the expected annual savings and synergies from past and future business
combinations and the ability to achieve the expected benefits of restructuring actions; success and timing of
potential divestitures; potential impairment of long-lived assets, including goodwill; potential adjustment of the
value of deferred tax assets; competitive product and pricing pressures; the amount of the company’s debt; the
ability of the company to continue to comply with covenants in its financing agreements; the ability of the
company to access capital markets; credit ratings of the company’s debt; the outcome of existing and any future
legal proceedings, including any litigation with respect to environmental or asbestos-related matters; the
