The Statements in this Form 8-K Current Report concerning management's
expectations constitute "forward looking statements" within the meaning of
Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934. The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995

they reflect preliminary information and management assumptions, and that a
variety of factors could cause the Company's actual results and experience to
differ materially from the anticipated results or other expectations expressed
in the Company's forward looking statements. This report includes "forward
looking statements" including, without limitation, statements as to the
Company's liquidity and availability of capital resources.
