Safe Harbor Statement
 
This Form 8-K and other reports filed by Registrant from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission contain or may contain forward-looking statements as that term is defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements relate to future events or Registrant’s future financial performance. In some cases, forward-looking statements can be identified by terminology such as “may”, “will”, “should”, “intends”, “expects”, “plans”, “anticipates”, “believes”, “estimates”, “predicts”, “potential”, or “continue”, or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology. Such statements reflect the current view of Registrant with respect to future events and are subject to risks, uncertainties, assumptions and other factors relating to Registrant’s industry, Registrant’s operations and results of operations and any businesses that may be acquired by Registrant. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should the underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may differ significantly from those anticipated, believed, estimated, expected, intended or planned.
 
Although Registrant believes that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, Registrant cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements. Except as required by applicable law, including the securities laws of the United States, Registrant does not intend to update any of the forward-looking statements to conform these statements with actual results.
