Forward-Looking Statement Disclaimer Statements included in this presentation that are not based on historical facts are “forward-looking statements”, as that term is defined in the private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Although such statements are based on management’s current estimates and expectations, and currently available competitive, financial and economic data, forward-looking statements are inherently uncertain and involve risks and uncertainties that could cause the results of the Company to differ materially from what may be inferred from the forward-looking statements. When used in this presentation, words such as “anticipate,” “estimate,” “expect,” “seeks,” “intend,” “plan,” “believe,” and similar words are intended in part to identify forward-looking statements. Some of the factors that could cause or contribute to such differences are listed and discussed in Item 1A - Risk Factors of the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended September 30, 2006. That list is not all-inclusive, and the Company undertakes no obligation to release publicly any revisions or updates to any forward-looking statements that are contained in this presentation. Readers of this presentation are encouraged to read carefully the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended September 30, 2006 (including discussions contained in Items 1 – Business, 1A - Risk Factors, 3 – Legal Proceedings, and 7 - Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contained therein) and other documents the Company files from time to time with the United States Security and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for a further description of the Company’s Risk Factors.
