historical fact, including our 2013 Guidance and all statements regarding anticipated growth in our revenue, expected results of operations and integration of any acquisition are forward-looking. To identify these statements look for words like

business, political and economic conditions due to the current global economic downturn, including the impact of continuing uncertainty and instability of certain European Union countries that could adversely affect our global markets; foreign
currency exchange rate and interest rate fluctuations including the risk of further declines in the value of the Euro that would decrease our revenues and earnings; acquisition integration delays or costs or the requirement to record significant
adjustments to the preliminary fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed within the measurement period; reduced sales, loss of customers and costs and expenses related to the recall of certain lots of Avaira Toric and Avaira Sphere
contact lenses; a major disruption in the operations of our manufacturing, research and development or distribution facilities due to technological problems, natural disasters or other causes; disruptions in supplies of raw materials, particularly
components used to manufacture our silicone hydrogel lenses; legal costs, insurance expenses, settlement costs and the risk of an adverse decision or settlement related to product liability, patent or other litigation; limitations on sales following
new product introductions due to poor market acceptance; new competitors, product innovations or technologies; the impact of acquisitions or divestitures on revenues, earnings or margins; the requirement to provide for a significant liability or to
write off, or accelerate depreciation on, a significant asset, including goodwill; changes in United States and foreign government regulations of the retail optical industry and of the healthcare industry generally; changes in tax laws or their
interpretation and changes in effective tax rates; dilution to earnings per share from acquisitions or issuing stock and other events described in our Securities and Exchange Commission filings, including the &#147;Business&#148; and &#147;Risk
Factors&#148; sections in the Company&#146;s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October&nbsp;31, 2012, as such Risk Factors may be updated in quarterly filings. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT
