FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
In accordance with the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, the Company
notes that certain statements set forth in this presentation provide other than historical information and are forward
looking. The actual achievement of any forecasted results, or the unfolding of future economic or business
developments in a way anticipated or projected by the Company, involve numerous risks and uncertainties that may
cause
the
Company’s
actual
performance
to
be
materially
different
from
that
stated
or
implied
in
the
forward-looking
statement.
Among
those
risks
and
uncertainties,
many
of
which
are
beyond
the
control
of
the
Company,
include,
without
limitation,
fluctuations
in
worldwide
energy
demand
and
oil
and
gas
prices;
fleet
additions
by
competitors
and
industry
overcapacity;
changes
in
capital
spending
by
customers
in
the
energy
industry
for
offshore
exploration,
development
and
production;
changing
customer
demands
for
different
vessel
specifications,
which
may
make
some
of
our
older
vessels
technologically
obsolete
for
certain
customer
projects
or
in
certain
markets;
uncertainty
of
global
financial
market
conditions
and
difficulty
accessing
credit
or
capital;
acts
of
terrorism
and
piracy;
significant
weather
conditions;
unsettled
political
conditions,
war,
civil
unrest
and
governmental
actions,
such
as
expropriation
or
enforcement
of
customs
or
other
laws
that
are
not
well-developed
or
consistently
enforced,
especially
in
higher
political
risk
countries
where
we
operate;
foreign
currency
fluctuations;
labor
changes
proposed
by
international
conventions;
increased
regulatory
burdens
and
oversight;
and
enforcement
of
laws
related
to
the
environment,
labor
and
foreign
corrupt
practices.
Readers
should
consider
all
of
these
risks
factors,
as
well
as
other
information contained
in the Company’s form 10-K’s and 10-Q’s.
