Cautionary note about forward-looking statements
This announcement (including any information incorporated by reference in this announcement), oral statements made regarding the Transaction, and other information published by Bidco, Intact, Tryg and/or RSA contain statements which are, or may be deemed to be, “forward-looking statements”. Forward-looking statements are prospective in nature and are not based on historical facts, but rather on current expectations and projections of the management of Bidco, Intact, Tryg and/or RSA (as applicable) about future events, and are therefore subject to risks and uncertainties which could cause actual results to differ materially from the future results expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements.
Forward looking statements often use words such as “believe”, “expect”, “estimate”, “intend”, “anticipate” and words of a similar meaning, and phrases or statements that certain actions, events or results “may”, “could”, “should”, “would”, “might” or “will” be taken, occur or be achieved (or, in each case, their negative or other variations). You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which reflect the current views of Bidco, Intact, RSA and Tryg, are subject to risks and uncertainties about Bidco, Intact, RSA and Tryg and are dependent on many factors, some of which are outside of Bidco’s, Intact’s RSA’s and Tryg’s control. There are important factors, risks and uncertainties that could cause actual outcomes and results to be materially different. Except as required by law, Bidco, Intact, RSA and Tryg undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.AttachmentAnnouncement of results of court meeting and general meeting
