Cautionary Note About Forward-Looking Statements

This press release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of federal securities laws, and these forward-looking statements are subject to substantial risks and uncertainties. These forward-looking statements may include, without limitation, statements about the integration process with our recent acquisitions in the United Kingdom, current trends in our UK sales process, our expectations with respect to UK inventory, and growth rates in our revenues and net income, both in North America and in the United Kingdom. Our business has become increasingly reliant on proprietary and non-proprietary technologies, and it is difficult to forecast with accuracy what impact these changes in our business model will have. Among other factors, we believe our increasing use of internet auction technologies has expanded our buyer base beyond North America, and any factors adversely affecting the ability to export and import salvage vehicles, including domestic or foreign governmental regulation, could have an adverse impact on our business. We depend on a limited number of major suppliers of salvage vehicles. If we are unable to maintain these supply relationships, our revenues and operating results would be adversely affected. Since June 2007, we have acquired several salvage companies operating exclusively in the United Kingdom. We do not have any historic experience operating outside of North America, and we may experience challenges adapting our business model to international markets and integrating the acquired businesses. In addition, our revenues, operating results, financial condition, and growth rates are subject to numerous other risks, including our ability to complete and integrate new acquisitions, environmental and regulatory risks, and the other factors described under the caption “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q. We encourage investors to review these disclosures carefully.
