These forward-looking statements include, without limitation, AETI&#8217;s expectations with respect to future performance of the combined company, anticipated financial impacts of the proposed business combination, approval of the transaction-related matters by AETI&#8217;s stockholders, the satisfaction of the closing conditions to the transaction and the completion of the business combination transaction (the &#8220;Transaction&#8221;).</font></p>

Most of these factors are outside the parties&#8217; control and are difficult to predict. A number of factors could cause actual events, performance or results to differ materially from the events, performance and results discussed in the forward-looking statements. Factors that may cause such differences include, among other things: the possibility that the business combination does not close or that the closing may be delayed because conditions to the closing may not be satisfied, including the receipt of requisite AETI stockholder and other approvals, the performance of Stabilis and AETI, future demand for and price of LNG, availability and price of natural gas, unexpected costs, liabilities or delays in the business combination transaction, the outcome of any legal proceedings related to the transaction; the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstances that could give rise to the termination of the share exchange agreement; and general economic conditions.</p>
