This presentation contains forward-looking statements that involve substantial risks and uncertainties, including among other things, statements about: -our planned development, commercialization and manufacturing plans, timelines and strategies for tivozanib; -the potential therapeutic advantages and benefits of our product candidates; -the timing and results of our ongoing and planned preclinical studies and clinical trials; -the potential benefits of our strategic partnership agreements, our ability to achieve additional payments under these arrangements and our ability to enter into additional arrangements; -our plans to leverage our Human Response Platform™ to inform clinical development; -our intellectual property position and strategies; -the expected RCC market and potential of tivozanib to enter this market; -our projections with respect to our achievement of corporate milestones, including our anticipated plans for success in the oncology markets; and -AVEO having sufficient capital to fund its operations beyond 2012 and AVEO's estimates for its 2011 expected year-end cash balance. Actual results or events could differ materially from the plans, intentions and expectations disclosed in the forward-looking statements we make due to a number of important factors, including risks and uncertainties inherent in pharmaceutical research and development, such as our ability to successfully develop, test and gain approval of our product candidates, including tivozanib; our ability to obtain, maintain and enforce intellectual property rights; competition; our dependence on our alliance partners and other third parties; our ability to obtain any necessary financing; adverse economic conditions; and those risk factors discussed in the “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in our most recent Form 10-K and other periodic filings made with the Securities and Exchange Commission. You should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements because they involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that are, in some cases, beyond our control and that could materially affect actual results, performance or achievements. The forward-looking statements you see or hear during this presentation represent our views as of the date of this presentation. We anticipate that subsequent events and developments will cause our views to change. However, while we may elect to update these forward- looking statements at some point in the future, we have no current intention of doing so except to the extent required by applicable law. You should, therefore, not rely on these forward-looking statements as representing our views as of any date subsequent to the date of this presentation.
