We have recorded an aggregate accrual of approximately $ 28 million relating to our outstanding legal proceedings as of June 30, 2021.

As of the end of each applicable reporting period, we review each of our legal proceedings and, where it is probable that a liability has been incurred, we accrue for all probable and reasonably estimable losses.

Where we can reasonably estimate a range of losses we may incur regarding such a matter, we record an accrual for the amount within the range that constitutes our best estimate.

If we can reasonably estimate a range but no amount within the range appears to be a better estimate than any other, we use the amount that is the low end of such range.

If we had used the high ends of such ranges, our aggregate potential liability would be approximately $ 9 million higher than the amount recorded as of March 31, 2021.
