Item 3. Legal Proceedings
Except as set forth in "Note 27 – Commitments and contingencies" to our consolidated financial statements included in Part II, Item 8, "Financial statements and Supplementary Data" of this annual report, we were involved in a number of lawsuits, regulatory matters, disputes, and claims, asserted and unasserted, all of which have arisen in the ordinary course of our business and for which we do not expect the liability, if any, to have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. We cannot predict with certainty the outcome or effect of any of the matters referred to above or of any such other pending or threatened litigation or legal proceedings. We can provide no assurance that our beliefs or expectations as to the outcome or effect of any lawsuit or claim or dispute will prove correct and the eventual outcome of these matters could materially differ from management’s current estimates.
Additional information regarding legal proceedings is presented in “Note 27 — Commitments and Contingencies” to our consolidated financial statements included in Part II, Item 8, "Financial Statements and Supplementary Data" of this annual report.
