Forward-Looking Statements
All statements contained herein other than statements of historical fact are “forward-looking” statements for purposes of the U.S. federal and state securities laws. Although Talen Energy believes that the expectations and assumptions reflected in these forward-looking statements are reasonable, these statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, and actual results may differ materially from the results discussed in the statements. Among the important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements are: operating performance and the length of scheduled and unscheduled outages at generating plants; weather conditions affecting customer energy usage and/or the availability of fuel for the plants; volatility in the availability and/or price of electric transmission and/or fuel transmission and delivery services; the effect of any business, industry or market restructuring; and new accounting requirements or new interpretations or applications of existing requirements. Any such forward-looking statements should be considered in light of such important factors and in conjunction with the risk factors and other disclosures included in Talen Energy's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission that are available at www.sec.gov.
