The
information contained in this Current Report on Form 8-K under Item 7.01,
including the Exhibit hereto, has been “furnished” and shall not be deemed
“filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended, or otherwise subject to liability under that section. The information

Forward-looking
statements
This
information and other statements by the company contain forward-looking
statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act
with respect to, among other items: projections and estimates of earnings,
revenues, cost-savings, expenses, or other financial items; statements of
management’s plans, strategies and objectives for future operation, and
management’s expectations as to future performance and operations and the time
by which objectives will be achieved; statements concerning proposed new
products and services; and statements regarding future economic, industry or
market conditions or performance. Forward-looking statements are typically
identified by words or phrases such as “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,”
“project,” “estimate” and similar expressions. Forward-looking statements speak
only as of the date they are made, and the company undertakes no obligation
to
update or revise any forward-looking statement. If the company does update
any
forward-looking statement, no inference should be drawn that the company will
make additional updates with respect to that statement or any other
forward-looking statements.
Forward-looking
statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, and actual
performance or results could differ materially from that anticipated by these
forward-looking statements. Factors that may cause actual results to differ
materially from those contemplated by these forward-looking statements include,
among others: (i) the company’s success in implementing its financial and
operational initiatives, (ii) changes in domestic or international economic
or business conditions, including those affecting the rail industry (such as
the
impact of industry competition, conditions, performance and consolidation);
(iii) legislative or regulatory changes; (iv) the inherent business
risks associated with safety and security; and (v) the outcome of claims
and litigation involving or affecting the company.
Other
important assumptions and factors that could cause actual results to differ
materially from those in the forward-looking statements are specified in the
company’s SEC reports, accessible on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov
and the company’s website at www.csx.com.
