ADDITIONAL INFORMATION AND FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

This report and the exhibit hereto are not a proxy statement or solicitation of a proxy, consent or authorization with respect to any securities or in respect of the proposed transactionS and shall not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy the securities of HARMONY or NEXTDECADE, nor shall there be any sale of any such securities in any state or jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation, or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of such state or jurisdiction.

 

This report and the exhibit hereto include “forward-looking statements.” HARMONY’S AND NEXTDECADE’S actual results may differ from THEIR RESPECTIVE expectations, estimates and projections and, consequently, you should not rely on these forward looking statements as predictions of future events. Words such as “expect,” “estimate,” “project,” “budget,” “forecast,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” “may,” “will,” “could,” “should,” “believes,” “predicts,” “potential,” “continue,” and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements include, without limitation, HARMONY’S and NEXTDECADE’S expectations with respect to future performance; anticipated financial impacts of the PROPOSED TRANSACTIONS; approval of the PROPOSED transactions by STOCKholders; the satisfaction of the closing conditions to the PROPOSED transactions; and the timing of the completion of the PROPOSED transactions.

 

THERE ARE significant risks and uncertainties that could cause the actual results to differ materially from the expected results. Most of these factors are outside the parties’ control and difficult to predict. Factors that may cause such differences include: business conditions; weather and natural disasters; changing interpretations of GAAP; outcomes of government reviews; inquiries and investigations and related litigation; continued compliance with government regulations; legislation or regulatory environments; requirements or changes adversely affecting the business in which NextDecade is engaged; fluctuations in customer demand; management of rapid growth; intensity of competition from other providers of liquefied natural gas (“LNG”) and related services; general economic conditions; geopolitical events and regulatory changes; and other factors set forth in Harmony’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission and available at www.sec.gov. Other factors include the possibility that the PROPOSED TRANSACTIONS do not close, including due to the failure to receive required STOCKholder approval, or the failure of other closing conditions.

 

The foregoing list of factors is not exclusive. Additional information concerning these and other risk factors is, AND MAY BE, contained in HARMONY’S filings with the SEC. All subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements concerning HARMONY and NEXTDECADE, the PROPOSED transactions or other matters and attributable to HARMONY and NEXTDECADE or any person acting on their behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements above. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance upon any forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made. Neither HARMONY nor NEXTDECADE undertakeS or acceptS any obligation or undertaking to release publicly any updates or revisions to any forward-looking statement to reflect any change in their expectations or any change in events, conditions or circumstances on which any such statement is based.
