Forward-Looking Statements
Except for the historical and factual information contained herein, the matters set forth in this presentation, including statements regarding
the expected transaction proceeds, timing and benefits of the proposed transactions, and other statements identified by words such as
"estimates," "expects," "projects," "plans,” “intends," "will" and similar expressions, are forward-looking statements within the meaning of
the "safe harbor" provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements are subject to a
number of risks, uncertainties and assumptions, many of which are beyond our control. Actual events and results may differ materially
from those anticipated, estimated or projected if one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or if underlying assumptions
prove incorrect. Factors that could affect actual results include but are not limited to: the ability of the parties to timely and successfully
receive the required approvals of regulatory agencies; the possibility that the purchaser will not be able to finance the divestitures on the
terms contemplated or at all; the possibility that the anticipated benefits from the proposed transactions cannot be fully realized in the
manner contemplated; the possibility that it may be more difficult than anticipated to segregate the Company's divested businesses from
its other businesses in connection with the divestitures; the possibility that it may be more difficult than anticipated to segregate the
facilities-based business of Sellers and their subsidiaries from the Company's other businesses in connection with the ILEC Divestiture;
the possibility that the post-closing commercial relationships between the parties will not operate in the manner currently contemplated;
the possibility that the Company might be required to pay higher than anticipated tax payments, to make unanticipated payments under
the transaction agreements or to otherwise receive less net cash proceeds than anticipated; the possibility that the Company's
customers, vendors or employees could react unfavorably to the transactions; changes in the Company's cash requirements, financial
position or business, operational or financial plans; the effects of competition from a wide variety of competitive providers; and other risk
factors and cautionary statements as detailed from time to time in the Company's reports filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange
Commission. There can be no assurance that the Company's proposed divestitures will in fact be consummated in the manner described
or at all. You should be aware that new factors may emerge from time-to-time and it is not possible for us to identify all such factors nor
can we predict the impact of each such factor on the proposed transactions. You should not place undue reliance on these forward-
looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this presentation. Unless legally required, the Company undertakes no obligation
and expressly disclaims any such obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information,
future events or otherwise.
