This Current Report on Form 8-K includes “forward-looking statements” as that term is defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Forward-looking statements are any statements other than statements of historical fact, including statements regarding WDI’s expectations, beliefs, hopes, intentions or strategies regarding the future. In some cases, forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of words such as “may,” “will,” “expects,” “should,” “believes,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “estimates,” “predicts,” “potential,” “continue,” “future” or other words of similar meaning. Forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause WDI’s actual results to differ materially from those discussed in, or implied by, the forward-looking statements. The factors that could cause WDI’s actual results to vary materially from those anticipated or expressed in any forward-looking statement include: (1) the conditions to the completion of the transactions contemplated by the Agreement may not be satisfied, or the regulatory approvals required for such transactions may not be obtained on the terms expected, on the anticipated schedule, or at all; (2) closing of the transactions contemplated by the Agreement may not occur or may be delayed, including for reasons beyond WDI’s control; (3) WDI’s ability to execute on WDI’s strategy; (4) the risk that the disposition of WVRNA may not prove successful and could result in operating difficulties; and (5) other factors described in WDI’s most recent annual report on Form 10-K and subsequent SEC filings.
