Item 3. Legal Proceedings .
In
the ordinary course of our business, the Company and its subsidiaries are parties to various legal actions, which we believe are incidental
to the operation of our business. Although the ultimate outcome and amount of liability, if any, with respect to these legal actions
cannot presently be ascertained with certainty, in the opinion of management, based upon information currently available to us, any resulting
liability is not likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or
cash flows.
