Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Information
Certain statements and information herein, including all statements that are not historical facts, contain forward-looking statements and forward-looking information within the meaning of applicable securities laws. Such forward-looking statements or information include but are not limited to statements or information with respect to the completion of the arrangement, the anticipated benefits from the arrangement, the timing for completion of the arrangement, Odin's post-deal market capitalization, the number of shares (diluted and non-diluted) of Odin following the arrangement, the timing for the special meeting of EGX shareholders and the timing for closing of the transaction. Often, but not always, forward-looking statements or information can be identified by the use of words such as "plans", "expects" or "does not expect", "is expected", "budget", "scheduled", "estimates", "forecasts", "intends", "anticipates" or "does not anticipate" or "believes" or variations of such words and phrases or statements that certain actions, events or results "may", "could", "would", "might" or "will" be taken, occur or be achieved.
With respect to forward-looking statements and information contained herein, Odin and EGX have made numerous assumptions including among other things, assumptions about general business and economic conditions, the price of copper, interest rates, anticipated costs and expenditures, production and productivity levels, market competition, receipt of necessary permits and approvals, the availability of suitable future targets and Odin's and EGX's ability to achieve their goals. The foregoing list of assumptions is not exhaustive. Although management of Odin and EGX believe that the assumptions made and the expectations represented by such statements or information are reasonable, there can be no assurance that a forward-looking statement or information herein will prove to be accurate. Forward-looking statements and information by their nature are based on assumptions and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause Odin's and/or EGX's actual results, performance or achievements, or industry results, to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements or information. These factors include, but are not limited to: risks and costs to Odin and EGX if the arrangement is not completed; EGX's obligation to pay a break fee if the arrangement is terminated under certain circumstances, which might deter other parties from making a competing offer to acquire EGX; the investment of executive management time to the arrangement, which may delay or prevent Odin and/or EGX from exploiting business opportunities that may arise pending completion of the arrangement; the restrictions on the conduct of EGX's business prior to completion of the arrangement; the interests of management and other related parties in the arrangement, which may differ from those of EGX shareholders in certain respects; risks associated with the business of Odin; risks related to the satisfaction or waiver of certain other conditions contemplated by the definitive agreement in respect of the arrangement; risks related to reliance on technical information provided by EGX; risks relating to exploration and potential development of EGX's projects; business and economic conditions in the mining industry generally; the supply and demand for labour and other project inputs; prices for commodities to be produced and changes in commodity prices; changes in interest and currency exchange rates; risks relating to inaccurate geological and engineering assumptions (including with respect to the tonnage, grade and recoverability of reserves and resources); risks relating to unanticipated operational difficulties (including failure of plant, equipment or processes to operate in accordance with specifications or expectations, cost escalation, unavailability of materials and equipment, government action or delays in the receipt of government approvals, industrial disturbances or other job action, and unanticipated events related to health, safety and environmental matters); risks relating to adverse weather conditions; political risk and social unrest; changes in general economic conditions or conditions in the financial markets; and other risk factors as detailed from time to time in Odin's and EGX's continuous disclosure documents filed with Canadian securities administrators.
See Odin's and EGX's public filings with the Canadian securities administrators for additional information on risks, uncertainties and other factors relating to the forward-looking statements and information. Although Odin and EGX have attempted to identify factors that would cause actual actions, events or results to differ materially from those disclosed in the forward-looking statements or information, there may be other factors that cause actual results, performances, achievements or events not to be anticipated, estimated or intended. Also, many of the factors are beyond Odin's and EGX's control. Accordingly, readers should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements or information. Neither Odin nor EGX undertakes any obligation to reissue or update forward-looking statements or information as a result of new information or events after the date hereof except as may be required by law. All forward-looking statements and information made herein, are qualified by this cautionary statement.
