Certain of the statements in this communication contain forward-looking
statements regarding future events and results that are subject to the "safe
harbor" provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. All
statements, other than statements of historical facts, are statements that could
be deemed forward-looking statements. These statements are based on current
expectations, estimates, forecasts, and projections about the industries in
which we operate and the beliefs and assumptions of our management. Words such
as "expects," "anticipates," "predicts," "projects," "intends," "plans,"
"believes," "seeks," "estimates," "continues," "endeavors," "strives," "will,"
"may," "proposes," "potential," "could," "should," "outlook," or variations of
such words and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking
statements. In addition, any statements that refer to projections of future
financial performance, anticipated growth and trends in businesses, and other
characterizations of future events or circumstances are forward-looking
statements. Readers are cautioned that these forward-looking statements are
based on current expectations and assumptions that are subject to risks and
uncertainties, which could cause actual results to differ materially and
adversely from those reflected in the forward-looking statements. Factors that
could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to:
(i) the risk that the proposed merger may not be completed in a timely manner or
at all; (ii) the possibility that the various conditions to the consummation of
the proposed merger may not be satisfied or waived, including the failure to
receive any required regulatory approvals from any applicable governmental
entities (or any conditions, limitations or restrictions placed on such
approvals); (iii) the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstance that
could give rise to the termination of the proposed merger, including in
circumstances which would require the Company to pay a termination fee or other
expenses; (iv) the effect of the announcement or pendency of the proposed merger
on the Company's ability to retain and hire key personnel, its ability to
maintain relationships with its customers, suppliers and others with whom it
does business, or its operating results and business generally; (v) risks
related to diverting management's attention from the Company's ongoing business
operations; (vi) the risk that shareholder litigation in connection with the
proposed merger may result in significant costs of defense, indemnification and
liability; (vii) risks related to the outbreak of COVID-19 (more commonly known
as the Coronavirus); and (viii) (A) those discussed in the Company's Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended
