Although the Company believes that such statements are reasonable, it can give no assurance that such expectations will prove to be correct.

The Company cautions that Forward-looking statements are based on the beliefs, estimates and opinions of the Company's management on the date the statements are made and they involve a number of risks and uncertainties.
