Disclosure Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This presentation contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of
1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.  Forward-looking statements may also be included
from time to time in our other public filings, press releases, our website and oral and written presentations by
management.  Specific forward-looking statements can be identified by the fact that they do not relate strictly to
historical or current facts and include, without limitation, words such as “may,” “will,” “expects,” “believes,”
“anticipates,” “plans,” “estimates,” “projects,” “predicts,” “targets,” “seeks,” “could,” “intends,” “foresees” or the
negative of such terms or other variations on such terms or comparable terminology.  Similarly, statements that
describe our strategies, initiatives, objectives, plans or goals are forward-looking. 
These forward-looking statements are based on management’s current intent, belief, expectations, estimates and
projections.  These statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve risks, uncertainties,
assumptions and other factors that are difficult to predict.  Therefore, actual results may vary materially from what is
expressed in or indicated by the forward-looking statements.  The risk factors set forth under “Item 1A. Risk Factors”
in our Annual Reports on Form 10-K and other matters discussed from time to time in our filings with the Securities
and Exchange Commission, including the “Disclosure Regarding Forward-Looking Information” and “Risk Factors”
sections of our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, among others, could affect future results, causing these results to
differ materially from those expressed in our forward-looking statements.  
In the event that the risks disclosed in our public filings and those discussed above cause results to differ materially
from those expressed in our forward-looking statements, our business, financial condition, results of operations or
liquidity could be materially adversely affected and investors in our securities could lose part or all of their
investments.  Accordingly, our investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking
statements because, while we believe the assumptions on which the forward-looking statements are based are
reasonable, there can be no assurance that these forward-looking statements will prove to be accurate. 
Further, the forward-looking statements included in this presentation and those included from time to time in our other
public filings, press releases, our website and oral and written presentations by management are only made as of the
respective dates thereof.  We undertake no obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statement in this
presentation or in other documents, our website or oral statements for any reason, even if new information becomes
available or other events occur in the future.
