<p style="MARGIN-TOP: 9px; MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0px"><font style="FONT-FAMILY: ARIAL" size="1">Our insurance coverage reflects market conditions (including cost and availability) existing at the time it is written, and our decision to obtain insurance coverage or to self-insure varies accordingly. Depending upon the cost and availability of insurance and the nature of the risk involved, the amount of self-insurance may be significant. The cost and availability of coverage have resulted in self-insuring certain exposures, including product liability. If we incur substantial liabilities that are not covered by insurance or substantially exceed insurance coverage and that are in excess of existing accruals, there could be a material adverse effect on our results of operations in any particular period (see <i>Note 19. Legal Proceedings and Contingencies</i>). </font></p>18. Insurance
