Litigation and Other Contingencies [Abstract]

LITIGATION AND OTHER CONTINGENCIES

13. LITIGATION AND OTHER CONTINGENCIES

From time to time, claims have been filed by or have arisen against the Company in its normal course of business. The Company believes that the ultimate resolution of these claims and lawsuits will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

As of September 30, 2011, the Company has not recorded any accrual for contingent liabilities associated with the legal proceedings described above based on the belief that liabilities, while possible, are not probable. Further, probable ranges of losses in these matters cannot be reasonably estimated at this time. Generally, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties, and no assurance can be given that the Company will prevail in any particular lawsuit. Accordingly, pending lawsuits, as well as potential future litigation with other companies, could result in substantial costs and diversion of resources and could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
