Forward-Looking Statements

This report contains forward-looking statements. All statements that address operating performance, events or developments that the Company expects or anticipates will occur in the future are forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are based on management’s beliefs and assumptions and on information currently available to the Company’s management. The Company’s management believes that these forward-looking statements are reasonable as and when made. However, you should not place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements because such statements speak only as of the date when made. The Company does not undertake any obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law. In addition, forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results, events and developments to differ materially from the Company’s historical experience and the Company’s present expectations or projections. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, those described in “Item 1A. Risk Factors” and elsewhere in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, those described from time to time in other reports which the Company files with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, and other risks and uncertainties including, without limitation, that the Company’s actual cash outflows for the quarter ending March 31, 2017 are different from those estimated in the Quarterly Report.
