Item 1. Legal Proceedings
ITEM
1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
In
the normal course of business, we may be subject to various proceedings and claims arising from our business activities, including lawsuits,
arbitration claims and regulatory matters. We are also involved in other reviews, investigations and proceedings by governmental and
self-regulatory organizations regarding the business, which may result in adverse judgments, settlements, fines, penalties, injunctions
and other relief. In many cases, however, it is inherently difficult to determine whether any loss is probable or reasonably possible
or to estimate the amount or range of any potential loss, particularly where proceedings may be in relatively early stages. In our opinion,
based on currently available information, the ultimate resolution of current matters will not have a material adverse impact on our financial
position and results of operations. However, resolution of one or more of these matters may have a material effect on the results of
operations in any future period, depending upon the ultimate resolution of those matters and depending upon the level of income for such
period.
ITEM
