Forward-looking information

Information in this press release relating to future events or circumstances, including information regarding future results, growth and other projections as well as benefits of the Offer, are forward-looking information. Such information may generally, but not always, be identified by the use of words such as “anticipates”, “expects”, “believes”, or similar expressions.

Any such forward-looking information only applies as per the date it was given and the Offeror do not have any obligation (and undertake no such obligation) to update or revise it, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by applicable laws and regulations.
