The information contained in this presentation is provided as at the date hereof and is subject to change without notice.

This presentation contains forward looking statements, and neither the Group nor our representatives make any representation or warranty, express or implied, as to the achievement or reasonableness of such forward-looking statements, including future projections, operations, strategy, plans, objectives, goals, management targets, economic outlook, estimates and prospects. Actual events or conditions are unlikely to be consistent with, and may materially differ from, such forward-looking statements, and the Group and our representatives do not undertake any obligation or responsibility to update any of the information contained in this presentation.
These forward-looking statements are subject, among other things, to (i) business, economic and competitive risks, (ii) macroeconomic conditions, (iii) fluctuations of the Euro against the U.S. dollar and Romanian Leu exchange rate, (iv) oil, natural gas and electricity prices and the price of CO2 emission rights, (v) changes in the market, legal, regulatory and fiscal landscape, (vi) evolution of bad debt and (vii) other uncertainties and contingencies, which relate to factors that are beyond PPC's ability to control or estimate precisely, and that could cause actual events or results to differ materially from those expressed therein. Accordingly, undue reliance should not be placed on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this presentation.
Certain information contained in these materials, including future EBITDA, earnings, expenditures and other financial measures for future periods, constitutes "forward-looking statements," which are based on current expectations and assumptions about future events, and that may be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as "may," "will," "should," "except," "anticipate," "project," "estimate," "intend," "continue," or "believe" or the negatives thereof or other variations thereon or comparable terminology or other forms of projections, forecasts or targets or generally as all statements other than statements of historical facts included in this presentation. Financial metrics for future periods are based on present reasonable and good-faith assumptions and we provide no assurance that such financial metrics will be achieved.

Undue reliance should not be placed on the inclusion of such unaudited and unreviewed preliminary interim financial information and it should not be regarded as an indication of future events. The inclusion of such financial information in this presentation should not be regarded as a representation or warranty by the Group or our representatives or any other person as to the accuracy or completeness of such information's portrayal of the financial condition or results of operations by the Group and should not be relied upon when making an investment decision. This presentation does not purport to contain all information required to evaluate the Group and/or its financial position. Market and competitive position data in these materials has generally been obtained from industry publications and surveys or studies conducted by third-party sources and estimates prepared by the Group on certain assumptions. There are limitations with respect to the availability, accuracy, completeness and comparability of such data. While the Company believes that the industry and market data from external sources is accurate and correct, the Company has not independently verified such data and can provide no assurance of its accuracy or completeness.
Certain financial data included in these materials consists of "non-IFRS financial measures". These non-IFRS financial measures, as defined by the Company, may not be comparable to similarly-titled measures as presented by other companies, nor should they be considered as an alternative to the historical financial results or other indicators of the performance based on IFRS. Certain statements in these materials regarding the market and competitive position data are based on the internal analyses of the Company, which involve certain assumptions and estimates. These internal analyses have not been verified by any independent source and there can be no assurance that the assumptions or estimates are accurate. Accordingly, undue reliance should not be placed on any of the industry, market or the Company's competitive position data contained in these materials.
The facts, opinions and expectations stated herein have not been independently verified, and neither the Group nor any of its representatives makes any representation or warranty, express or implied, as to the achievement or reasonableness of future projections, management targets, estimates, prospects or returns contained herein, as to the accuracy, completeness or reasonableness of this presentation or any of the information or opinions contained herein, or the assumptions on which they are based or any other written or oral communication transmitted or made available to the recipient or its representatives, and they should not be relied upon as such.
The Group, its affiliates and their respective representatives expressly disclaim, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any and all liability based, in whole or in part, on this presentation or any information contained herein or any other written or oral communication transmitted or made available to the recipient or its affiliates or representatives, including, without limitation, with respect to errors therein or omissions therefrom.
