Disclosure of forward-looking statements
This release may contain forward-looking statements about our operations,
anticipated performance and other similar matters. The Private Securities
Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides a safe harbor under the Securities Act of
1933 and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 for forward-looking statements. The
forward-looking statements are not historical facts and involve risks and
uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those
expected and/or projected. Such forward-looking statements are based on current
expectations, estimates, forecasts and projections about our company, the
industry in which we operate, and beliefs and assumptions made by management.

"believe(s)," "continue(s)," "seek(s)," "estimate(s)," "goal(s)," "target(s),"
"forecast(s)," "project(s)," "predict(s)," "should," "could," "may," "will
continue," "might," "hope," "can" and other words and terms of similar meaning
or expression in connection with a discussion of future operating, financial
performance or financial condition, are intended to identify forward-looking
statements. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and
involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict.
Therefore, actual outcomes and results may differ materially from what is
expressed in such forward-looking statements. Information concerning factors
that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the
forward-looking statements is contained in Part I Item 1A "Risk Factors" of our
