Certain statements contained in this Form 8-K may be “forward-looking statements.” Our Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2008, our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2009, and our other subsequent filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission identify important factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those contained in any of our projections, estimates or forward-looking statements. In addition, there also may be additional risks that the Company does not presently know or that it currently believes are immaterial which could also affect the accuracy of any such forward-looking statements or could impair the Company’s business or results of operations. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements. The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
