Forward-Looking Statements
This Current Report on Form 8-K contains statements that are considered forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933 and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. These forward-looking statements are largely based on the Company’s expectations, which reflect estimates and assumptions made by its management. These estimates and assumptions reflect the Company’s best judgment based on currently known market conditions and other factors. Although the Company believes such estimates and assumptions to be reasonable, they are inherently uncertain and involve a number of risks and uncertainties that are beyond the Company’s control. In addition, management’s assumptions about future events may prove to be inaccurate. For instance, there is no assurance that the proposed conversion will be consummated or that the amendment and restatement of the omnibus incentive compensation plan will be adopted. Management cautions all readers that the forward-looking statements contained in this Current Report on Form 8-K are not guarantees of future performance,
and the Company cannot assure you that such statements will be realized or the forward-looking events and circumstances will occur. Actual results may differ materially from those anticipated or implied in the forward-looking statements due to factors listed in the “Risk Factors” section in the Company’s SEC filings and elsewhere in those filings. All forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K. The Company does not intend to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. These cautionary statements qualify all forward-looking statements attributable to the Company or persons acting on the Company’s behalf.
