A copy

Item 9.01. Financial Statements and Exhibits
(d)
Exhibits
Disclosure about forward-looking statements
Statements made in
this Form 8-K, other than those concerning historical information,
should be considered forward-looking statements pursuant to the
safe harbor provisions of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and
the Private Securities Litigation Act of 1995. These
forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties and are
based on the beliefs and assumptions of management and on the
information available to management at the time that this report
was prepared. These statements can be identified by the use of
words like “expect,” “anticipate,”
“estimate,” and “believe,” variations of
these words and other similar expressions. Readers should not place
undue reliance on forward-looking statements as a number of
important factors could cause actual results to differ materially
from those in the forward-looking statements. Factors that might cause such a
difference include, but are not limited to, changes in interest
rate environment, management’s business strategy, national,
regional, and local market conditions and legislative and
regulatory conditions.
The
Company undertakes no obligation to publicly revise these
forward-looking statements to reflect subsequent events or
circumstances. Readers should also carefully review the risk
factors described in other documents the Company files from time to
time with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
SIGNATURES
Pursuant to the
requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant
has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the
undersigned hereunto duly authorized.
