Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Information

This current report on Form 8-K contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. All statements other than those of historical fact in this presentation and accompanying oral commentary are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements may be identified by terminology such as “believe,” “anticipate,” “plan,” “may,” “intend,” “will,” “should,” “expect,” “estimate,” “potential” and “continue” and similar expressions, including the negative of these words, but not all forward-looking statements contain these words. Forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding the Company’s expectations regarding projected timelines of clinical trials, and expectations regarding current or future clinical trials. Forward-looking statements are based on the Company’s current expectations and are subject to inherent uncertainties, risks and assumptions that are difficult to predict. Further, certain forward-looking statements are based on assumptions as to future events that may not prove to be accurate, including the timing of clinical trials. These and other risks and uncertainties are described more fully in the section titled “Risk Factors” in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and elsewhere in our filings and reports with the SEC. These risks, uncertainties and other factors may cause our actual results to differ materially and adversely from what is contained in (or may be implied from) any forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements speak as of the date they are made, and the Company undertakes no obligation to update them except as may be required under applicable law.
