that have been entered into with AIR and its subsidiaries in connection with the Separation and their obligations to indemnify, defend and hold AIR and its subsidiaries harmless from and against various claims, litigation and liabilities; the
ability to achieve some or all the benefits that we expect to achieve from the Separation; and such other risks and uncertainties described from time to time in filings by AIR with the SEC.
