RISK FACTORS

SUMMARY

General Business Risks

•Market fluctuations may affect the Company’s operations.

10

•Rising inflation may result in increased costs of operations and negatively impact the credit and securities markets generally, which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and the market price of our securities.

•We could experience significant increases in operating costs and reduced profitability due to competition for skilled management and staff employees in our operating businesses.

•Legacy technology systems require a unique technical skillset which is becoming scarcer.

•Security threats and other sophisticated computer intrusions could harm our information systems, which in turn could harm our business and financial results.

•We may not be able to insure certain risks adequately or economically.

•Legal liability may harm our business.

•Our business might suffer if we were to lose the services of certain key employees.

Risks Related to Our Structure and Financing/Liquidity Risks

•Our holding company structure may increase risks related to our operations.

•A small number of stockholders has the ability to control the Company.

•Although we do not expect to rely on the “controlled company” exemption, we do qualify as a “controlled company” within the meaning of the Nasdaq listing standards, and we could rely on exemptions from certain corporate governance requirements.

•An increase in interest rates or in our borrowing margin would increase the cost of servicing our debt and could reduce our cash flow and negatively affect the results of our business operations.

•Our inability to maintain sufficient liquidity could limit our operational flexibility and also impact our ability to make payments on our obligations as they come due.

•Future cash flows from operations or through financings may not be sufficient to enable the Company to meet its obligations.

•A large proportion of our capital is invested in physical assets and securities that can be hard to sell, especially if market conditions are poor.

•To service our debt and meet our other cash needs, we will require a significant amount of cash, which may not be available.

•If our cash flows and capital resources are insufficient to fund our debt service obligations, we may be forced to seek alternatives.

•Despite our substantial indebtedness, we may incur significantly more debt, and cash may not be available to meet our financial obligations when due or enable us to capitalize on investment opportunities when they arise.

•Our current financing arrangements require compliance with financial and other covenants and a failure to comply with such covenants could adversely affect our ability to operate.

•Future acquisitions
