Safe Harbor for Forward-Looking Statements

Statements in this filing regarding the proposed transaction between the Parent and the Company, the expected timetable for completing the transaction, future financial and operating results, benefits and synergies of the transaction, future opportunities for the combined company and any other statements about future expectations, plans, and prospects for the Company, including statements containing the words “believes,” “anticipates,” “plans,” “expects,” and similar expressions, constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Actual results may differ materially from those indicated by such forward-looking statements as a result of various important factors, including the risk that the proposed merger may not be completed in a timely manner, or at all, which may adversely affect the Company’s business and the price of its common stock; the failure to satisfy all of the closing conditions of the proposed merger, including the approval of the merger agreement by the Company’s stockholders and the receipt of regulatory approvals; the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstance that could give rise to the termination of the merger agreement; the effect of the

announcement or pendency of the proposed merger on the Company’s business, operating results, and relationships with customers, suppliers, competitors and others; risks that the proposed merger may disrupt the Company’s current plans and business operations; potential difficulties retaining employees as a result of the proposed merger; risks related to the diverting of management’s attention from the Company’s ongoing business operations; the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against the Company related to the merger agreement or the proposed merger; risks relating to product development and commercialization, limited demand for the Company’s products, limited number of customers, risks associated with competition, uncertainties associated with regulatory agency approvals, competitive pricing pressures, downturns in the economy, the risk of potential intellectual property litigation, acquisition related risks; and other factors discussed in the Company’s most recent quarterly and annual reports filed with the SEC. In addition, the forward-looking statements included in this filing represent the Company’s views as of the date of this document. While the Company anticipates that subsequent events and developments will cause the Company’s views to change, the Company specifically disclaims any obligation to update these forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as representing the Company’s views as of any later date.
