2 Forward-looking statements “Safe Harbor” Statement under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995: This communication contains “forward‐looking statements” — that is, statements related to future, not past, events. In this context, forward‐looking statements often address our expected future business and financial performance and financial condition, and often contain words such as “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” “believe,” “seek,” “see,” “will,” “would,” or “target.” Forward‐looking statements by their nature address matters that are, to different degrees, uncertain. Uncertainties that could cause our actual results to be materially different than those expressed in our forward‐looking statements include the failure to consummate this transaction or to make or take any filing or other action required to consummate any such transaction on a timely matter or at all. These or other uncertainties may cause our actual future results to be materially different from those expressed in our forward‐looking statements. We caution you, therefore, against relying on any of these forward‐looking statements. They are neither statements of historical fact nor guarantees or assurances of future performance. More information about factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in the forward‐looking statements can be found under “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10‐K for the year ended December 31, 2020 as filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission.
