UNIFIRST CORP

We are involved with environmental investigation, monitoring and remediation activities at certain sites. In addition, from time to time, we are subject to legal proceedings and claims arising from the current conduct of our business operations, including but not limited to, personal injury, customer contract, employment claims and environmental and tax matters as described. We maintain insurance coverage providing indemnification against many of such claims, and we do not expect, although there can be no assurance, that we will sustain any material loss as a result thereof. Refer to Note 12, “Commitments and Contingencies,” to the Consolidated Financial Statements, as well as Part II, Item 1A. “Risk Factors” below and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, for further discussion.
