amended, and Section&nbsp;21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. &#147;Forward-looking statements&#148; are statements related to future, not past, events. Forward-looking statements are based on current expectations and include any
statement that does not directly relate to a current or historical fact. In this context, forward-looking statements often address expected future business and financial performance, and often contain words such as &#147;could,&#148;
&#147;believe,&#148; &#147;would,&#148; &#147;anticipate,&#148; &#147;intend,&#148; &#147;estimate,&#148; &#147;expect,&#148; &#147;may,&#148; &#147;should,&#148; &#147;continue,&#148; &#147;plan,&#148; &#147;predict,&#148; &#147;potential,&#148;
&#147;project,&#148; &#147;hypothetical,&#148; &#147;forecasted&#148; and similar expressions that are intended to identify forward-looking statements, although not all forward-looking statements contain such identifying words. Such forward-looking
statements include, but are not limited to, among other things, the completion of the tender offer. Actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such statements, and such forward-looking statements may not prove
to be accurate. These forward-looking statements involve certain risks and uncertainties. For further discussions of risks and uncertainties, you should refer to Matador&#146;s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the
