Item
7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure.
On March
3, 2009, the Company issued a press release announcing its upcoming
participation in the Raymond James & Associates 30th Annual
Institutional Investors Conference in Orlando, Florida on Tuesday, March 10,
2009. A copy of the press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this Form 8-K
and is incorporated by reference to this Item 7.01.
A live
audio Webcast of the presentation will begin at approximately 3:25 p.m. (EDT) on
March 10, 2009. For a limited period following the conference, an
archive of the Webcast and slides of the conference presentation will be
available to the public beginning Tuesday, March 10, 2009 on the Company’s Web
site, www.brunswick.com, under the "Investors" tab.
In
accordance with General Instruction B.2 to the Form 8-K, the information under
this Item 7.01 and the press release exhibit to this Form 8-K shall not be
deemed "filed" for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), or otherwise subject to the liabilities
of that Section 18, nor shall such information and exhibit be deemed
incorporated by reference in any filing under the Exchange Act or the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), unless the registrant expressly
states that such information and exhibit are to be considered "filed" under the
Exchange Act or incorporates such information and exhibit by specific reference
in an Exchange Act or Securities Act filing.
This
current report on Form 8-K, the oral public statements made by any
representative of the Company during the Raymond James & Associates 30th Annual
Institutional Investors Conference and Webcast and the related presentation
materials may contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section
27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Exchange Act. Such
forward-looking statements are based on information currently available to the
Company’s management and are current only as of the date made. For that reason,
undue reliance should not be placed on any such forward-looking statement.
Actual results could also differ materially from those anticipated as a result
of a number of factors, including, but not limited to, those discussed in the
Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008. The
Company assumes no duty or obligation to update or revise any forward-looking
statement, although it may do so from time to time as management believes is
warranted. Any such updates or revisions may be made by filing reports with the
Securities and Exchange Commission, through the issuance of press releases or by
other methods of public disclosure.
