Such forward-looking statements reflect current expectations or beliefs concerning future events and actual events may differ materially from historical results or current expectations. The reader is cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which are not a guarantee of future performance and are subject to a number of uncertainties, risks, assumptions and other factors, many of which are outside the control of the Company. The forward-looking statements in this presentation address a variety of subjects including, for example, the Transaction, the Company's potential issuance of shares in satisfaction of the terms and conditions of the Purchase Agreements and the business prospects of the Company following the Transaction.
