Statements contained in this report that are not historical facts are forward-looking statements. These statements may address issues that involve significant risks, uncertainties, estimates and assumptions made by management. The Company undertakes no obligation to update these statements following the date of this report, except as required by law. In addition, the Company, through its senior management, may make from time to time forward-looking public statements concerning the matters described herein. Such forward-looking statements are necessarily estimates reflecting the best judgment of the Company&rsquo;s senior management based upon current information and involve a number of risks and uncertainties. Certain factors that could affect the accuracy of such forward-looking statements are identified in the public filings made by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission, and forward-looking statements contained in this report or in other public statements of the Company or its senior management should be considered in light of those factors. Specifically, with respect to statements relating to the proposed acquisition of The Peoples Bank, these factors include, but are not limited to, the possibility that modifications to the terms of the transaction may be required in order to satisfy any regulatory and other approvals and conditions to the proposed transaction; delays in closing the transaction; difficulties, delays and unanticipated costs in integrating the organizations&rsquo; businesses or realized expected cost savings and other benefits; business disruptions as a result of the integration of the organizations, including possible loss of customers; diversion of management time to address transaction-related issues; and changes in asset quality and credit risk as a result of the transaction. There can be no assurance that such factors or other factors will not affect the accuracy of such forward-looking statements.</p>
