Important Notice

The statements in this press release that are not historical facts

may be forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements

involve risks and uncertainties that could cause the outcome to be materially different. The words such as “may,” “will,”

“seeks,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “expects,” “estimates,” “projects,”

“potential,” “predicts,” “plans,” “intends,” “would,” “could,”

“should” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements, although not all forward-looking statements

contain these identifying words. These forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks, uncertainties and other factors,

many of which are outside of the Company’s control, which could cause actual results to differ materially from the results contemplated

by the forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties include the risks that any potential future acquisition or disposition

by the Company is subject to market conditions, capital availability and timing considerations and may not be identified or completed

on favorable terms, or at all. Some of the risks and uncertainties, although not all risks and uncertainties, that could cause the Company’s

actual results to differ materially from those presented in the Company’s forward-looking statements are set forth in the “Risk

Factors” and “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk” sections in the Company’s Annual Report

on Form 10-K, its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, and all of its other filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission,

as such risks, uncertainties and other important factors may be updated from time to time in the Company’s subsequent reports.

Further, forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, and the Company undertakes no obligation to update or revise

any forward-looking statement to reflect changed assumptions, the occurrence of unanticipated events or changes to future operating results

over time, unless required by law.
