Forward-Looking Statements

This Current Report on Form 8-K contains forward-looking statements regarding the proposed acquisition of the Company by Cisco. These statements are based on plans, estimates and projections at the time the Company makes the statements, and readers should not place undue reliance on them. In some cases, readers can identify forward-looking statements by the use of forward-looking terms “may” and “will.” Forward-looking statements involve inherent risks and uncertainties, and the Company cautions readers that a number of important factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any such forward-looking statement. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in the above statements include, among others: the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstances that could give rise to the termination of the merger agreement and the inability to complete the proposed merger due to the failure to satisfy conditions to completion of the proposed merger, including that a governmental entity may prohibit, delay or refuse to grant approval for the consummation of the proposed merger. Additional risks are described in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2017, and its subsequently filed reports with the SEC.
