FORWARD-LOOKING AND CAUTIONARY STATEMENTS
Some of the information included or incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement and the attached prospectus
contains forward-looking statements. You can identify these forward-looking statements by the use of words such as "strategy,"
"expects," "continues," "plans," "anticipates," "believes," "will," "estimates," "forecasts," "intends," "projects," "goals,"
"objectives," "guidance," "targets," and other words of similar meaning. You can also identify them by the fact that they do not relate
strictly to historical or current facts.
We cannot guarantee that any forward-looking statement will be realized, although we believe we have been prudent in our
plans and assumptions. Achievement of future results is subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions that may prove to be
inaccurate. Should known or unknown risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove inaccurate, actual
results could vary materially from those anticipated, estimated or projected. You should bear this in mind as you consider forward-
looking statements and whether to invest in the notes. In connection with the "safe harbor" provisions of the Private Securities
Litigation Reform Act of 1995, we have identified important factors in this prospectus supplement and in the documents incorporated
by reference that, individually or in the aggregate, could cause actual results and outcomes to differ materially from those contained in
any forward-looking statements made by us; any such statement is qualified by reference to these cautionary statements. We elaborate
on these and other risks we face in this prospectus supplement and the documents incorporated by reference. You should understand
that it is not possible to predict or identify all risk factors. Consequently, you should not consider the risks discussed in the prospectus
supplement and the documents incorporated by reference to be a complete discussion of all potential risks or uncertainties. We do not
undertake to update any forward-looking statement that we may make from time to time except as required by applicable law.
