In the normal course of business, there are various legal claims in process, matters in litigation, and other contingencies.  These include claims resulting from employment related claims and claims from guests or team members alleging illness, injury or other food quality, health, or operational concerns.  To date, no claims of this nature, certain of which are covered by insurance policies, have had a material adverse effect on us.  While it is not possible to predict the outcome of these suits, legal proceedings, and claims with certainty, management is of the opinion that adequate provision for potential losses associated with these matters has been made in the financial statements and that the ultimate resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on our financial position and results of operations.
