Factors that could cause actual results or events to differ materially from current expectations include, but are not limited to: delays in obtaining or failure to obtain required regulatory and shareholder approval for the Amalgamation; alternative transactions involving third parties which may result in the Amalgamation not being completed and/or the terms thereof being changed; the failure to achieve any of the anticipated benefits from the Amalgamation and other factors.
