All statements other than statements of historical facts included in this press release, including, without limitation, statements regarding our future financial position, risks and uncertainties related to our business, strategy, capital expenditures, projected costs and our plans and objectives for future operations, may be deemed to be forward-looking statements. Words such as “anticipate,” “assume,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “plan,” “risk,” “should,” “will” and similar expressions or the negatives of these expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements.
