This Current Report on Form 8-K contains "forward-looking statements."

In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by the following words: "may," "will," "could," "would," "should," "expect," "intend," "plan," "anticipate," "believe," "approximately," "potential," or the negative of these terms or other words of similar meaning in connection with a discussion of the Asset Purchase, although the absence of these words does not necessarily mean that a statement is not forward-looking. Forward-looking statements are based upon the Company's current intentions, plans, assumptions, expectations and beliefs concerning future developments and their potential effect on the Company and the Asset Purchase. This information may involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors outside of the Company's control which may cause actual events, results, performance or achievements to be materially different from the future events, results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by any forward-looking statements. Stockholders and potential investors should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. Although the Company believes that its plans, intentions and expectations reflected in or suggested by the forward-looking statements in this Current Report on Form 8-K are reasonable, the Company cannot assure stockholders and potential investors that these plans, intentions or expectations will be achieved.
Factors and risks that may cause or contribute to actual events, results, performance or achievements differing from these forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to: (i) the Company's ability to consummate the Asset Purchase or the risk of any event, change or other circumstance that could give rise to the termination of the Purchase Agreement; (ii) the risk that cost savings and any revenue synergies from the Asset Purchase may not be fully realized or may take longer than anticipated to be realized; (iii) the risk that the integration of Sellers' assets and operations will be materially delayed or will be more costly or difficult than expected or that the Company is otherwise unable to successfully integrate Sellers' assets and operations into the Company's business; (iv) the failure to obtain the necessary approvals and consents from third parties and regulators to consummate the Asset Purchase, or any other consents required under the Purchase Agreement; (v) the ability to obtain required governmental approvals of the Asset Purchase (and the risk that such approvals may result in the imposition of conditions that could adversely affect the Company or the expected benefits of the Asset Purchase); (vi) the failure of the closing conditions in the Purchase Agreement to be satisfied, or any unexpected delay in closing the Asset Purchase; and (vii) the Company's ability to fund the Asset Purchase. All forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K. Except to the extent required by law, the Company undertakes no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether because of new information, future events, a change in events, conditions, circumstances or assumptions underlying such statements, or otherwise.
