Doing business in foreign countries creates certain risks not found in doing business in the United States.

Doing business in foreign countries carries with it certain risks that are not found in doing business in the United States. The risks of doing business in foreign countries that could result in losses against which we are not insured include:

 

  Ÿ  

exposure to local economic conditions;

 

  Ÿ  

potential adverse changes in the diplomatic relations of foreign countries with the United States;

 

38


  Ÿ  

hostility from local populations;

 

  Ÿ  

the adverse effect of currency exchange controls;

 

  Ÿ  

restrictions on the withdrawal of foreign investment and earnings;

 

  Ÿ  

government policies against businesses owned by foreigners;

 

  Ÿ  

investment restrictions or requirements;

 

  Ÿ  

expropriations of property;

 

  Ÿ  

the potential instability of foreign governments;

 

  Ÿ  

the risk of insurrections;

 

  Ÿ  

risks of renegotiation or modification of existing agreements with governmental authorities;

 

  Ÿ  

foreign exchange restrictions;

 

  Ÿ  

withholding and other taxes on remittances and other payments by subsidiaries; and

 

  Ÿ  

changes in taxation structure.

In addition, because we own assets overseas and derive revenue from our International operations, we may incur currency translation losses due to changes in the values of foreign currencies and in the value of the United States dollar. We cannot predict the effect of exchange rate fluctuations upon future operating results. See “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Market Risk Management—Foreign Currency Risk.”
