~~FORWARD-LOOKING~~Date: ~~STATEMENTS~~September 12, 2014

~~This~~EXHIBIT ~~filing~~INDEX contains a forward-looking statements regarding the Merger and related matters. In many cases forward-looking statements are identified by words, and variations of words, such as “anticipate”, “estimate”, “believe”, “commit”, “confident”, “continue”, “could”, “intend”, “may”, “plan”, “potential”, “predict”, “positioned”, “should”, “will”, “expect”, “objective”, “projection”, “forecast”, “goal”, “guidance”, “outlook”, “effort”, “target”, and other similar words. However, the absence of these words does not mean the statements are not forward-looking. Examples of forward-looking statements in this filing include the anticipated effective date and the impact of the Merger on the Company. The forward-looking statements in this filing are based on current expectations and assumptions that are subject to risks and uncertainties, many of which are outside of our control, and could cause results to materially differ from expectations. Such risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to: economic, business, competitive, technological or regulatory factors that adversely impact the Company or the markets and industries in which it competes; unanticipated expenses such as litigation or legal settlement expenses; tax law changes; and industry specific events or conditions that may adversely impact revenue or other financial projections. Actual results could differ materially from anticipated results. The Company is under no obligation (and expressly disclaims any obligation) to update its forward-looking statements. More detailed information about these and other factors is set forth in the Company Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended Sept. 27, 2013 and in the proxy statement/prospectus, dated August 1, 2014, regarding the Special General Meeting.
