As of June 1, 2013, Griffin had committed purchase obligations of approximately $2,411, principally for the development of Griffin Land’s properties and the purchase of plants and raw materials by Imperial.

 

Griffin is involved, as a defendant, in various litigation matters arising in the ordinary course of business.  In the opinion of management, based on the advice of legal counsel, the ultimate liability, if any, with respect to these matters is not expected to be material, individually or in the aggregate, to Griffin’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
