This report includes certain statements that are “forward looking” statements within the meaning of
Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934, as amended. These forward looking statements involve uncertainties and risks. There
can be no assurance that actual results (including as such results disclosed in this report may be
adjusted as described herein) will not differ from the Company’s expectations. Factors which could
cause materially different results include, among others, additional issues that may arise in
connection with the findings of the completed investigation by the Audit Committee of the Board of
Directors of the Company and the SEC’s requests for additional information and the discussion of
possible settlement with the SEC relating to the matters raised by the Audit Committee’s
investigation, the issues being addressed by the Company’s independent auditor in connection with
the independent auditor’s review of the interim financial statements to be included in the
Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended April 30, 2010, fuel prices, fuel
availability, lower consumer confidence, interest rate increases, tight lending practices,
increased material costs, the success of new product introductions, the pace of acquisitions, cost
structure improvements, the impact of auction market failures on the Company’s liquidity,
competition and general economic conditions and the other risks and uncertainties discussed more
fully in Item 1A of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended July 31, 2009. The
Company disclaims any obligation or undertaking to disseminate any updates or revisions to any
forward looking statements contained in this report or to reflect any change in the Company’s
expectations after the date of this report or any change in events, conditions or circumstances on
which any statement is based except as required by law.
