This current report includes forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.  Any statement in this report that is not a statement of historical fact may be deemed to be a forward-looking statement.  Although the registrant believes the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable, it cannot give assurances that these expectations will prove to be correct.  Such statements by their nature involve substantial risks and uncertainties that could significantly impact expected results.  It is not possible to identify all of the risks and uncertainties the registrant or KII face that could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in this report.  These risks and uncertainties include without limitation the significant risk factors set forth in the registrant's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009 that the registrant filed with the SEC effective March 10, 2010 as well as the registrant's subsequent periodic filings with the SEC.  Should one or more of these risks materialize (or the consequences of such a development worsen), or should the underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results could differ materially from those expected.  The registrant disclaims any intention or obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements whether as a result of changes in information, future events or otherwise.
