Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This Report, and the documents and exhibits referred to herein, contain forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from the results expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. The Company has made these statements in reliance on the safe harbor created by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (set forth in Section 27A of the Securities Act, and Section 21E of the Exchange Act). In some cases, forward-looking statements can be identified by words such as “anticipates,” “believes,” “could,” “estimates,” “expects,” “intends,” “may,” “plans,” “potential,” “predicts,” “projects,” “proposed,” “should,” “will,” “would” or the negative or similar expressions. All of the Company’s forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ materially from those that the Company is expecting, including:

the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstances that could give rise to the termination of the Merger Agreement;
issues or delays in the successful integration of the Company’s operations with those of Parent, including incurring or experiencing unanticipated costs and/or delays or difficulties;
the length and severity of the novel coronavirus pandemic (the “COVID-19 pandemic”) and its impact on the global economy, the Company’s business, operations and financial results;
the impact of cost-saving initiatives on the Company’s financial and liquidity position;
federal, state and local government initiatives to mitigate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, including additional restrictions on business activities, “shelter-in-place” orders, guidelines and other restrictions;
the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted following announcement of the Merger Agreement;
failure to retain key management and employees of the Company;
failure or inability to implement growth strategies in a timely manner;
unfavorable reaction to the transaction by customers, competitors, suppliers and employees;
future levels of revenues being lower than expected and costs being higher than expected;
conditions affecting the industry generally;
local and global political and economic conditions;
1


conditions in the securities market that are less favorable than expected; and
other risks described in the Company’s filings with the SEC, including the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Definitive Information Statement.

The forward-looking statements contained in this Report are based on historical performance and management’s current plans, estimates and expectations in light of information currently available to the Company and are subject to uncertainty and changes in circumstances. There can be no assurance that future developments affecting the Company will be those that we have anticipated. Actual results may differ materially from these expectations due to changes in global, regional or local political, economic, business, competitive, market, regulatory, public health and other factors, many of which are beyond the Company’s control, as well as the other factors described in the Company’s filings with the SEC. Additional factors or events that could cause the Company’s actual results to differ may also emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all of them. Comparisons of results for current and any prior periods are not intended to express any future trends or indications of future performance, unless expressed as such, and should only be viewed as historical data. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should any of the Company’s assumptions prove to be incorrect, the Company’s actual results may vary in material respects from what we may have expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. You should not place undue reliance on any of the Company’s forward-looking statements. Any forward-looking statement made by the Company in this Report speaks only as of the date hereof. The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise, except as may be required by applicable securities laws. The Company qualifies all of its forward-looking statements by these disclaimers.

Additional Information and Where to Find It

In connection with the proposed Merger, the Company filed certain materials with the SEC, including the Definitive Information Statement, which was first mailed to stockholders of the Company on or about December 4, 2020. You may obtain copies of all documents filed by the Company with the SEC, free of charge, at the SEC’s website, www.sec.gov, or from the Company’s website at https://investors.fbmsales.com/.
