These forward-looking statements do not constitute guarantees of future performance and are subject to a variety of risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ materially from those

expressed in the forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties include, among others: the Company's ability to manage economic, business and geopolitical conditions, including rising interest
