Litigation

In January 2010, a jury trial was held to resolve a dispute between a subsidiary of the Company and a subcontractor.  The jury rendered a verdict of $1.0 million against the subsidiary, exclusive of interest, court costs and attorney’s fees.  While the Company has recorded this verdict amount as an expense in the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2009, the Company has appealed this judgment as it believes that, as a matter of law, the jury erred in its decision.  The Company has posted a bond of $1.3 million to cover the judgment and estimated court costs and attorney's fees pending the appeal, which we expect will be heard later in 2011 or early in 2012.  The Company has other litigation in the ordinary course of business, but management does not believe that it will have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.
