Forward Looking StatementsCertain statements in this Acceleware presentation, other than statements of historical fact, may include forward-lookinginformation that involves various risks and uncertainties. These may include, without limitation, statements based oncurrent expectations involving a number of risks and uncertainties related to all aspects of the oil and gas technologyindustry. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not restricted to, ability of the Corporation to fund its researchand development (R&D) activities, the timing of such R&D, the likelihood that the patent applications filed by theCorporation will be granted, continued increased demand for the Corporation's products, the Corporation's ability tomaintain its technological leadership in the fields of seismic imaging, radio frequency of heavy oil and electromagneticsimulations, the Corporation's ability to attract and retain key employees, defend itself against any future patentinfringement claims, and the availability of key components.

These uncertainties may cause actual results to differ from information contained herein. There can be no assurancethat such statements will prove to be accurate. Actual results and future events could differ materially from thoseanticipated in such statements. These and all subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements are based on theestimates and opinions of management on the dates they are made and expressly qualified in their entirety by thisnotice. The Corporation assumes no obligation to update forward-looking statements should circumstances ormanagement's estimates or opinions change except as required by law.
