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," "intends," "projects," "goals,"
"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 inaccurate assumptions. 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 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 in the normal course of our public disclosure obligations.
