Forward-looking statements are not statements of historical facts, but rather reflect CopyTele's current expectations concerning future events and results. CopyTele generally uses the words "believes", "expects", "intends", "plans", "anticipates", "likely", "will" and similar expressions to identify forward-looking statements. Such forward-looking statements, including those concerning CopyTele's expectations, involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors, some of which are beyond CopyTele's control, which may cause CopyTele's actual results, performance or achievements, or industry results, to be materially different from any future results, performance, or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. In evaluating such statements as well as the future prospects of CopyTele, specific consideration should be given to various factors, including the following: CopyTele's prior history of losses and negative cash flows from operations; CopyTele's ability to obtain debt or equity financing to continue our marketing, research and development activities, on terms acceptable to CopyTele, if cash generated from operations is insufficient to satisfy our liquidity requirements; CopyTele's ability to commercialize E-Paper&#174; and Nano displays, the possible development of competitive products that could render CopyTele's products obsolete or unmarketable; and other risks as detailed from time-to-time in CopyTele's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. CopyTele undertakes no obligation to update any forward-looking statement as a result of new information, unanticipated events, or otherwise.</FONT></P>
