Following completion of the Offer, Zebra completed the acquisition of Xplore through the merger of Purchaser with and into Xplore, without a vote of Xplores stockholders pursuant to Section 251(h) of the Delaware General Corporation Law, with Xplore surviving the merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Zebra.

Safe Harbor Statement
This press release contains forward-looking statements, as defined by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including, without limitation, the statements regarding the companys outlook. Actual results may differ from those expressed or implied in the companys forward-looking statements. These statements represent estimates only as of the date they were made. Zebra undertakes no obligation, other than as may be required by law, to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, changed circumstances or any other reason after the date of this release.
These forward-looking statements are based on current expectations, forecasts and assumptions and are subject to the risks and uncertainties inherent in Zebras industry, market conditions, general domestic and international economic conditions, and other factors. These factors include customer acceptance of Zebras hardware and software products and competitors product offerings, and the potential effects of technological changes. The continued uncertainty over future global economic and trade conditions, the availability of credit and capital markets volatility may have adverse effects on Zebra, its suppliers and its customers. In addition, a disruption in our ability to obtain products from vendors as a result of supply chain constraints, natural disasters or other circumstances could restrict sales and negatively affect customer relationships. Profits and profitability will be affected by Zebras ability to control manufacturing and operating costs. Because of its debt, interest rates and financial market conditions will also have an impact on results. Foreign exchange rates will have an effect on financial results because of the large percentage of our international sales. The outcome of litigation in which Zebra may be involved is another factor. The success of integrating acquisitions could also affect profitability, reported results and the companys competitive position in its industry. These and other factors could have an adverse effect on Zebras sales, gross profit margins and results of operations and increase the volatility of our financial results. When used in this release and documents referenced, the words anticipate, believe, outlook, and expect and similar expressions, as they relate to the company or its management, are intended to identify such forward-looking statements, but are not the exclusive means of identifying these statements. Descriptions of the risks, uncertainties and other factors that could affect the companys future operations and results can be found in Zebras filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including the companys most recent Form 10-K.
