FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
Certain statements contained herein release are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of “safe harbor” provisions of the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and “forward-looking information” within the meaning of applicable Canadian securities laws (collectively, “forward-looking statements”). All statements, other than statements of historical fact contained in this Offer and Circular and the information incorporated by reference herein regarding the Offer, the expiration of the Offer, the timing of the take up and payment for the Debentures deposited under the Offer and the Company’s objectives, plans, goals, strategies, future growth, results of operations, financial and operating performance and business prospects and opportunities are forward-looking statements. The words “anticipate,” “believe,” “expect,” “estimate,” “intend,” “plan,” “project,” “outlook,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “would,” “could,” “can,” the negatives thereof, variations thereon and other similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements, although not all forward-looking statements contain such identifying words. Forward-looking statements are based on certain estimates, beliefs, expectations and assumptions made in light of management’s experience and perception of historical trends, current conditions and expected future developments, as well as other factors that may be appropriate. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding the expiration of the Offer, the timing of the take up and payment for the Debentures deposited under the Offer, the anticipated benefits of the Offer and the Company’s objectives, plans, goals, strategies, future growth, results of operations, financial and operating performance and business prospects and opportunities. Forward-looking statements should not be read as guarantees of future events, performance or results, and will not necessarily be accurate indications of whether, or the times at which, such events, performance or results will be achieved. All of the statements and information in this Offer and Circular containing forward-looking statements are qualified by these cautionary statements.
Forward-looking statements necessarily involve unknown risks and uncertainties, which could cause actual results or outcomes to differ materially from those expressed or implied in such statements. Such risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, satisfaction or waiver of the conditions to the Offer and the extent to which holders of Debentures determine to tender their Debentures to the Offer. Due to the risks, uncertainties and assumptions inherent in forward-looking information, you should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. Factors that could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and growth prospects can be found under the headings “Risk Factors,” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, and in our subsequently filed Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q under the Company’s profile on the SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca and on EDGAR at www.sec.gov and also in the Company’s other continuous disclosure filings available under the Company’s profile on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca and on EDGAR at www.sec.gov.
These risks are not exhaustive. Because of these risks and other risks and uncertainties, our actual results, performance or achievement, or industry results, may be materially different from the anticipated or estimated results discussed in the forward-looking statements in this Offer and Circular. New risk factors emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for our management to predict all risk factors nor can we assess the effects of all factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in, or implied by, any forward-looking statements. Our past results of operations are not necessarily indicative of our future results. You should not place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements, which represent our beliefs, assumptions and estimates only as of the dates on which they were made, as predictions of future events. We undertake no obligation to update these forward-looking statements, even though circumstances may change in the future, except as required under applicable securities laws. We qualify all of our forward-looking statements by these cautionary statements.
For the avoidance of doubt, the above-mentioned websites are not intended to incorporate the contents of any such websites into the Offer and Circular nor should the contents of such websites be deemed to be incorporated into the Offer and Circular.
