FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
The Joint Announcement of TOM Online Inc. (the “Company”), constituting
Exhibit 1 to this Form 6-K, contains statements that may be viewed as
“forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the United
States Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the United
States Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. These statements are
based on the current expectations of the management of the Company and are
naturally subject to uncertainty and changes in circumstances. The
forward-looking statements contained in this Joint Announcement include
statements about the expected effects on the Company of the Proposal as
defined in the Joint Announcement, the expected timing and scope of the
Proposal, and all other statements in this Joint Announcement other than
historical facts. Forward-looking statements include, without limitation,
statements typically containing words such as “intends”, “expects”,
“anticipates”, “targets”, “estimates”, “envisages” and words of similar
import. By their nature, forward-looking statements involve risk and
uncertainty because they relate to events and depend on circumstances that
will occur in the future. There are a number of factors that could cause
actual results and developments to differ materially from those expressed or
implied by such forward-looking statements. These factors include, but are
not limited to, changes in the relationships of the Company with
telecommunication operators in the Peoples Republic of China (“PRC”) and
elsewhere, the effect of competition on the demand for the price of the
Company’s services, changes in customer demand and usage preference for the
Company’s products and services, changes in the regulatory policies by
relevant government authorities, any changes in telecommunications and related
technology and applications based on such technology, and changes in
political, economic, legal and social conditions in the PRC, India and other
countries where the Company conducts business operations, including, without
limitation, the Chinese government’s policies with respect to economic growth,
foreign exchange, foreign investment and entry by foreign companies into the
PRC’s telecommunications market. Other unknown or unpredictable factors could
cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking
statements. For further discussion of factors that could cause actual results
to differ from expectations, you should read the Company’s filings and
submissions to the SEC, including the Company’s most recent Annual Report on
Form 20-F (File No. 000-50631) and materials furnished to the United States
Securities and Exchange Commission under Form 6-K.
| Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized. |
