These filings identify and address other important risks and uncertainties that could cause actual events and results to differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements. The foregoing list of factors is not exhaustive, are provided for illustrative purposes only, and are not intended to serve as, and must not be relied on as, a guarantee, an assurance, a prediction or a definitive statement of fact or probability. Actual events and circumstances are difficult or impossible to predict and will differ from assumptions. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made. If any of these risks materialize or our assumptions prove incorrect, actual results could differ materially from the results implied by these forward-looking statements. There may be additional risks that neither the Company nor K Enter presently know or that the Company and K Enter currently believe are immaterial that could also cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements. The Company and K Enter anticipate that subsequent events and developments will cause the Company’s and K Enter’ assessments to change. However, while The Company and K Enter may elect to update these forward-looking statements at some point in the future, The Company and K Enter

specifically disclaim any obligation to do so. Neither the Company nor K Enter gives any assurance that the Company or K Enter, or the combined company, will achieve its expectations. Accordingly, undue reliance should not be placed upon the forward-looking statements, and they should not be relied upon as representing the Company’s and K Enter’ assessments as of any date subsequent to the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K.
