generally; production; cash costs and other operating results; growth prospects and outlook for
operations and/or investments, individually or in the aggregate; liquidity, capital resources and
expenditure, statements in relation to the implementation of the Transaction and/or the benefits
of the Transaction. These forward-looking statements are not based on historical facts, but rather
reflect current expectations concerning future results and events and generally may be identified
by the use of forward-looking words or phrases such as "believe", "aim", "expect", "anticipate",
"intend", "foresee", "forecast", "likely", "should", "planned", "may", "estimated", "potential" or
similar words and phrases. Examples of forward-looking statements include statements
regarding a future financial position or future profits, cash flows, corporate strategy,
implementation of the Transaction and/or the benefits of the Transaction, anticipated levels of
growth, estimates of capital expenditures, acquisition and investment strategy, expansion
prospects or future capital expenditure levels and other economic factors, such as, among

By their nature, forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties
because they relate to events and depend on circumstances that may or may not occur in the
future. Ethos Capital cautions that forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future
performance. Actual results, financial and operating conditions, returns and the developments
within the industries and markets in which Ethos Capital operates and/or invests may differ
materially from those made in, or suggested by, the forward-looking statements contained in this
announcement. All these forward-looking statements are based on estimates, predictions, and
assumptions, as regards Ethos Capital, all of which estimates, predictions, and assumptions,
although Ethos Capital believes them to be reasonable, are inherently uncertain and may not
eventuate or eventuate in the manner Ethos Capital expects. Factors which may cause the actual
results, performance, or achievements to be materially different from any future results,
performance or achievements expressed or implied in those statements or assumptions include
matters not yet known to Ethos Capital or not currently considered material by Ethos Capital.
Shareholders should keep in mind that any forward-looking statement made in this
announcement or elsewhere is applicable only at the date on which such forward-looking
statement is made. New factors that could cause the business of Ethos Capital not to develop as
expected may emerge from time to time and it is not possible to predict all of them. Further, the
extent to which any factor or combination of factors may cause actual results, performance, or
achievement to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statement is not
known. Ethos Capital has no duty to, and do not intend to, update, or revise the forward-looking
statements contained in this announcement or any other information herein, except as may be
required by law.
