Cautionary Statements Regarding Forward-Looking Information

Certain statements herein and in the Confidential Information are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the safe harbor provisions of the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Certain of these forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of words such as “believes,” “expects,” “projects,” “intends,” “plans,” “estimates,” “assumes,” “may,” “should,” “will,” “seeks,” “targets,” “anticipates,” “opportunity” or other similar expressions. Such statements include, but are not limited to, statements relating to the potential transactions described above, estimated and projected financial and operating metrics, estimated and projected non-GAAP financial measures, descriptions of management’s strategy, plans, objectives or intentions and descriptions of assumptions underlying any of the above matters and other statements that are not historical fact.

Forward-looking statements are subject to significant known and unknown risks, uncertainties, challenges and other important factors, and the Company’s actual results, performance or achievements could differ materially from future results, performance or achievements expressed in these forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are based on the Company’s current beliefs, intentions and expectations and are not guarantees or indicative of future performance, nor should any conclusions be drawn or assumptions be made as to any potential outcome of any strategic initiatives or transactions the Company considers. Risks and uncertainties relating to thedebt restructuring initiative include: the partial or incomplete implementation of the proposed debt restructuring initiative, or the failure to achieve any such restructuring at all; uncertainties around the timing of the proposed debt restructuring initiative; and the effects of disruption from the proposed debt restructuring initiative making it more difficult to maintain business, financing and operational relationships.

The above factors, risks and uncertainties are difficult to predict, contain uncertainties that may materially affect actual results and may be beyond the Company’s control. New factors, risks and uncertainties emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for management to predict all such factors, risks and uncertainties. Although the Company believes that the assumptions underlying the forward-looking statements contained herein and in the Confidential Information are reasonable, any of the assumptions could be inaccurate, and therefore any of these statements may prove to be inaccurate. In light of the significant uncertainties inherent in the forward-looking statements included herein and in the Confidential Information, the inclusion of such information should not be regarded as a representation by the Company or any other person that the results or conditions described in such statements or the Company’s objectives and plans will be achieved. These forward-looking statements speak only as of the date such statements were made or any earlier date indicated, and the Company does not undertake any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, changes in underlying assumptions or otherwise. If the Company were in any particular instance to update or correct a forward-looking statement, investors and others should not conclude that the Company would make additional updates or corrections thereafter.
