Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This Current Report on Form 8-K includes information that constitutes forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements are based on the Companys current beliefs, assumptions and expectations regarding future events, which in turn are based on information currently available to the Company. Such forward-looking statements include statements regarding materiality or significance, the quantitative effects of the restated financial statements, and any anticipated conclusions of the Audit Committee or the Companys management with respect to the matters relating to the Companys accounting. By their nature, forward-looking statements address matters that are subject to risks and uncertainties. A variety of factors could cause actual events and results, as well as the Companys expectations regarding materiality or significance, the restatements quantitative effects, the effectiveness of the Companys disclosure controls and procedures and the effectiveness of the Companys internal control over financial reporting, to differ materially from those expressed in or contemplated by the forward-looking statements. These factors include, without limitation, the risk that additional information may become known prior to the expected filing with the SEC of the amended Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q/A or that other subsequent events may occur that would require the Company to make additional adjustments to its financial statements. Other risk factors affecting the Company are discussed in detail in the Companys filings with the SEC, including its Annual Reports on Form 10-K and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except to the extent required by applicable securities laws.
