All statements other than statements of historical facts are forward-looking. You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements for many reasons. These forward-looking statements reflect current views with respect to future events and are by their nature subject to significant risk and uncertainties because they relate to events and depend on circumstances that will occur in future. There are a number of factors that could cause actual results and developments to differ materially from those expressed or implied by these forward- looking statements. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot assure you that our future results, level of activity or performance will meet these expectations. Moreover, neither we nor any other person assumes responsibility for the accuracy and completeness of the forward-looking statements. Unless we are required by law to update these statements, we will not necessarily update any of these statements after the date of this presentation, either to conform them to actual results or to changes in our expectations.

It is set ablaze, fueled by the passion for what we do. It is also weathered and torn; the result of battles fought and survived • The face represents who we are today : ambitious and determined, ready to fight for our creative vision, always moving forward – with fervor and a touch of battle-frenzy
