looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, such statements are not guarantees of future performance and actual results or
developments may differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are based on a number of
material factors and assumptions. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in forward-looking statements
