Certain statements in this report may constitute “forward-looking statements”

within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.

Forward-looking statements are statements that include projections, predictions,

expectations or beliefs about future events or results or otherwise and are not

statements of historical fact. Such statements are often characterized by the use of

qualified words (and their derivatives) such as “expect,” “believe,” “estimate,”

“plan,” “project,” “anticipate” or other statements concerning opinions or judgment

of the Company and its management about future events. Although the Company

believes that its expectations with respect to forward-looking statements are based

upon reasonable assumptions within the bounds of its existing knowledge of its

business and operations, there can be no assurance that actual results, performance

or achievements of the Company will not differ materially from any future results,

performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking

statements. Actual future results and trends may differ materially from historical

results or those anticipated depending on a variety of factors, including, but not

limited to, the effects of and changes in: general economic conditions, the interest

rate environment, legislative and regulatory requirements, competitive pressures,

new products and delivery systems, inflation, changes in the stock and bond

markets, technology, and consumer spending and savings habits. The Company

does not update any forward-looking statements that may be made from time to

time by or on behalf of the Company.
