Forward-looking statements
The information included in this part of the website may contain statements about the Offeree and the Offeror that are or may be forward-looking statements.

Without limitation, any statements preceded or followed by or that include the words ‘targets’, ‘plans’, ‘believes’, ‘expects’, ‘aims’, ‘intends’, ‘will’, ‘may’, ‘anticipates’, ‘estimates’, ‘projects’ or, words or terms of similar substance or the negative thereof, are forward-looking statements.

Such statements are qualified in their entirety by the inherent risks and uncertainties surrounding future expectations.
Such forward-looking statements are based on current expectations, assumptions and projections about future events, and are therefore subject to risks and uncertainties which could cause actual results to differ materially from the future results expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. Many factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected or implied in any forward-looking statements.
