TRILLIONENERGY INTERNATIONAL INC.

Notes to the Unaudited Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(Expressed in U.S. dollars)

(unaudited)

1. Organization

Trillion Energy International Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries, (collectively referred to as the “Company”) is an international oil and natural gas exploration and production company. Our corporate headquarters are located at Turan Gunes Bulvari, Park Oran Ofis Plaza, 180-y, Daire:45, Kat:14, 06450, Oran, Cankaya, Anakara, Turkey. The Company has oil and gas operations in Turkey and an exploration license in Bulgaria. The Company was incorporated in Delaware in 2015.

2. Summary<br> of Significant Accounting Policies
(a) Basis<br> of Presentation and Going Concern
--- ---

Basisof Presentation

The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended December 31, 2020.

The consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2019, has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at that date but does not include all the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.

GoingConcern

The Company has suffered recurring losses and negative cash flows from operations. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company will need to raise funds through either the sale of its securities, issuance of corporate bonds, joint venture agreements and/or bank financing to accomplish its goals. If additional financing is not available when needed, the Company may need to cease operations. The Company may not be successful in raising the capital needed to drill and/or rework existing oil wells. Any additional wells that the Company may drill may be non-productive. Management believes that actions presently being taken to secure additional funding for the reworking of its existing infrastructure will provide the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern. Since the Company has an oil producing asset, its goal is to increase the production rate by optimizing its current infrastructure. The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern; no adjustments to the financial statements have been made to account for this uncertainty.

The recent outbreak of the coronavirus, also known as “COVID-19”, has spread across the globe and is impacting worldwide economic activity. Conditions surrounding the coronavirus continue to rapidly evolve and government authorities have implemented emergency measures to mitigate the spread of the virus. The outbreak and the related mitigation measures has had an adverse impact on global economic conditions as well as on the Company’s business activities. The extent coronavirus has caused a modest drop in economic activity and oil and gas prices, due to reduced demand. The Company has implemented work from home measures for its employees in its offices in Canada and Turkey. The coronavirus has caused delay in realizing the Company’s funding efforts. To which the coronavirus may impact the Company’s business activities in the future will depend on future developments, such as the ultimate geographic spread of the disease, vaccine approvals and effectiveness, the duration of the outbreak, travel restrictions, business disruptions, and the effectiveness of actions taken in Canada and other countries to contain and treat the disease. These events are highly uncertain and as such, the Company cannot determine their financial impact at this time. While certain restrictions are presently in the process of being relaxed, it is unclear when the world will return to the previous normal, if ever. This may adversely impact the expected implementation of the Company’s plans moving forward.

Consolidation

The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Trillion Energy International Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries Park Place Energy Corp., Park Place Energy Bermuda, BG Exploration EOOD, and Park Place Energy Turkey Limited. All intercompany accounts, transactions and profits were eliminated in consolidation.

| --- |

(c) Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The Company regularly evaluates estimates and assumptions related to the estimated useful lives and recoverability of long-lived assets, impairment of oil and gas properties, fair value of stock-based compensation, fair value of derivative liabilities, interest rates used for lease calculations and deferred income tax asset valuation allowances. The Company bases its estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience, and various other factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the accrual of costs and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. The actual results experienced by the Company may differ materially and adversely from the Company’s estimates. To the extent there are material differences between the estimates and the actual results, future results of operations will be affected. There were no new estimates in the period.

(d) Reclassifications

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified for consistency with the current period presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on the reported results of operations or cash flow.

(e) New Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2016, FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Measurement of Credit Loss on financial Instruments. ASU 2016 13 replaces the current incurred loss impairment methodology with the expected credit loss impairment model, which requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to estimate expected credit losses over the life of the instrument instead of only when losses are incurred. This standard applies to financial assets measured at amortized cost basis and investments in leases recognized by the lessor. The Company adopted ASU 2016-13 on January 1, 2020 with no impact on the interim condensed consolidated financial statements.

Other recent accounting pronouncements issued by FASB, including its Emerging Issues Task Force, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, and the Securities and Exchange Commission did not or are not believed by management to have a material impact on the Company’s interim condensed consolidated financial statements.

3. Restricted<br> Cash

The restricted cash relates to drilling bonds provided to GDPA (General Directorate of Petroleum Affairs) for the exploration licenses due to Turkish Petroleum Law. The amounts are for 2% of the annual work budget of the different Turkish licenses which is submitted to GDPA on an annual basis.

Bulgaria

The Company holds a 98,205-acre oil and gas exploration claim in the Dobrudja Basin located in northeast Bulgaria. The Company intends to conduct exploration for natural gas and test production activities over a five-year period in accordance with or exceeding its minimum work program obligation. The Company’s commitment is to perform geological and geophysical exploration activities in the first 3 years of the initial term (the “Exploration and Geophysical Work Stage”), followed by drilling activities in years 4 and 5 of the initial term (the “Data Evaluation and Drilling Stage”). The Company is required to drill 10,000 meters (approximately 32,800 feet) of new wellbore (which may be vertical, horizontal or diagonal) and conduct other exploration activities during the initial term. The Company intends to commence its work program efforts once it receives all regular regulatory approvals of its work programs.

Turkey

Cendereoil field

The primary asset of the PPE Turkey Companies is the Cendere onshore oil field, which is a profitable oil field located in South East Turkey having a total of 25 wells. The Cendere Field was first discovered in 1988. Oil production commenced during 1990. The operator of the Cendere Field is TPAO. The Company’s interest is 19.6% for all wells except for wells C-13, C-15 and C-16, for which its interest is 9.8%. The produced oil has a gravity of 27.5o API.

The Cendere Field is a long-term low decline oil reserve. As at September 30, 2020, net production to PPE Turkey was 147 Boe/d. For the 2020 year-to-date, net production to the PPE Turkey averaged 183 Boe/d. At September 30, 2020, the gross oil production rate for the producing wells in Cendere was 555,43 bbls/day; the average daily 2020 gross production rate for the field was 594 bbls/day. At the end of October 2020, oil is currently sold at a price of approximately US$40,62 per barrel for a netback per barrel of approximately US$13 / bbl. At September 30, 2020, the Cendere field was producing 109 barrels of oil per day net to the PPE Turkey; and averaged 116 barrels per day during 2020 net to the PPE Turkey.

TheSouth Akcakoca Sub-Basin (“SASB”)

The Company owns offshore production licenses called the South Akcakoca Sub-Basin (“SASB”). The Company now owns a 49% working interest in SASB.

8. Leases

The Company leases certain assets under lease agreements. On January 1, 2020 the Company entered into a one-year lease for office space, which the Company elected the short-term lease measurement and recognition exemption. On January 3, 2020 the Company entered into a five-year lease for an office space that was classified as an operating lease on recognition.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company recognized operating lease expense of $7,456 and $19,299, respectively (2019 - $4,813 and $10,077, respectively), which is included in general and administrative expenses. As of September 30, 2020, the Company’s leases had a weighted average remaining lease term of 4.25 years. Operating right-of-use assets have been included within property and equipment as follows:

Right-of-use asset September 30, 2020 December 31, 2019
Cost $ 57,919 $ 18,345
Accumulated amortization (5,224 ) (13,586 )
Foreign currency translation change (13,051 ) -
Net book value $ 39,644 $ 4,759

Operating lease liabilities are measured at the commencement date based on the present value of future lease payments. As the Company’s lease did not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the commencement date in determining the present value of future payments. The Company used a weighted average discount rate of 10% in determining its lease liabilities. The discount rate was derived from the Company’s assessment of current borrowings.

| 11 |

| --- |

Operating lease right-of-use assets include any prepaid lease payments and exclude any lease incentives and initial direct costs incurred. Lease expense for minimum lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease if it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option.

As at September 30, 2020, the Company’s lease liability is as follows:

Lease liability September 30, 2020 December 31, 2019
Current portion of operating lease<br> liabilities $ 11,489 $ 4,759
Long-term portion of operating lease liabilities 28,155 -
$ 39,644 $ 4,759

Future minimum lease payments to be paid by the Company as a lessee as of September 30, 2020 are as follows:

Operating lease commitments and lease liability September 30, 2020
Remainder of 2020 $ 2,872

9. Asset<br> Retirement Obligations
--- ---

Asset retirement obligations (“AROs”) associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets are recognized as liabilities with an increase to the carrying amounts of the related long-lived assets in the period incurred. The fair value of AROs is recognized as of the acquisition date for business combinations. The cost of the tangible asset, including the asset retirement cost, is depleted over the life of the asset. AROs are recorded at estimated fair value, measured by reference to the expected future cash outflows required to satisfy the retirement obligations discounted at the Company’s credit-adjusted risk-free interest rate. Accretion expense is recognized over time as the discounted liabilities are accreted to their expected settlement value. If estimated future costs of AROs change, an adjustment is recorded to both the ARO and the long-lived asset. Revisions to estimated AROs can result from changes in retirement cost estimates, revisions to estimated inflation rates and changes in the estimated timing of abandonment. The Company’s ARO is measured using primarily Level 3 inputs. The significant unobservable inputs to this fair value measurement include estimates of plugging costs, remediation costs, inflation rate and well life. The inputs are calculated based on historical data as well as current estimated costs.

The following is a continuity of the Company’s asset retirement obligations:

September 30, 2020 December 31, 2019
Asset retirement obligations at beginning of period $ 3,633,427 $ 4,026,129
Additions
Accretion expense 279,377 417,965

On September 30, 2019, the Company closed an unbrokered private placement of convertible debt, issuing $123,095 ($163,000 CAD) in debentures to two investors. The convertible debentures bear interest at 10% per annum, payable annually in advance. They are convertible any time during the term of the debenture into units (each unit consists of one share and one warrant; each warrant can acquire one share at an exercise price of $0.20 USD or $0.25 CAD per share, based on the currency initially subscribed) at a conversion price of $0.12 USD or $0.15 CAD per unit, based on the currency initially subscribed. The convertible debt matures on September 30, 2021 and is secured by a general security agreement over the assets of the Company.

As the September 30, 2019 convertible debt included an embedded conversion feature denominated in Canadian dollars, the debt was determined to be a financial instrument comprising an embedded derivative representing the conversion feature with a residual host debt component. On initial recognition, the Company used the residual value method to allocate the principal amount of the debentures between the embedded derivative conversion feature and host debt components. The conversion feature was valued first with the residual allocated to the host debt component.

On initial recognition of the convertible debt granted on September 30, 2019, the Company recognized a derivative liability of $81,956 and an offsetting convertible debt discount of $81,956.

On July 1, 2020, the Company amended the conversion price of the convertible debentures. Under the amended terms, they are convertible any time during the term of the debenture into units (each unit consists of one share and one warrant; each warrant can acquire one share at an exercise price of $0.12 CAD per share, or approximately US$0.09 per share) at a conversion price of $0.075 CAD per unit (approximately US$0.06 per unit). In accordance with ASC 470-50-40-10, the carrying value of the debt of $90,264 was considered to be extinguished and a new issuance of $120,295 was recognized. A loss of $30,031 was recognized on the extinguishment.

On initial recognition of the convertible debt amended on July 1, 2020, the Company recognized a derivative liability of $62,980 and an offsetting convertible debt discount of $62,980.

On September 15, 2020, debt in the principal amount of $9,870 ($13,000 CAD) was converted by the holder to 173,333 units with a fair value of $11,644. The Company recognized a gain on the conversion of the debt of $1,030.

ExecutiveSummary

Trillion Energy International Inc. is focused on its oil and gas producing assets in Turkey and a coal bed methane exploration license in Bulgaria.

Turkey

On January 18, 2017, the Company completed the acquisition of three oil and gas exploration and production companies operating in Turkey (the “PPE Turkey”). As a result of the acquisition of PPE Turkey, the Company now owns interests in the producing Cendere oil field, and in the producing South Akcakoca Sub-Basin (“SASB”) gas field in Turkey.

PPE Turkey own 19.6% interest in the onshore Cendere oil field except three wells where PPE Turkey own 9.8% interest. PPE owns 49% working interest in the offshore SASB.

Aa at September 30, 2020, net production to the PPE Turkey from such fields was 147 barrels of oil equivalent per day or Boe/d. For the 2020 year-to-date, net production to the PPE Turkey averaged 183 Boe/d. With this base of operations in Turkey and its experienced management team, the Company is poised to exploit these assets and for further growth in the region.

At September 30, 2020, the gross oil production rate for the producing wells in Cendere was 578 bbls/day; the average daily 2020 gross production rate for the field was 555 bbls/day. At the end of July 2020, oil is currently sold at a price of approximately US$40.6 per barrel for a netback per barrel of approximately US$13/bbl. At September 30, 2020, the Cendere field was producing 109 barrels of oil per day net to the PPE Turkey; and averaged 116 barrels per day during 2020 net to the PPE Turkey.

| --- |

SASB has four producing fields, each with a production platform plus subsea pipelines that connect the fields to an onshore gas plant. The SASB fields are located off the north coast of Turkey towards the western end of the Black Sea. total gross production to date from the four fields is 41.8 Bcf

As at September 30, 2020, the gross gas production rate for the 4 producing wells in SASB was 0.4719 MMcfd; the average daily 2020 gross production rate for the field was 0.8175 MMcfd. The average gas sale price year to date was, US$6.14/Mcf and US$5.31 per Mcf for the quarter ending September 30, 2020, for a netback per Mcf of approximately minus US$4.22. The lower net back is a result of relatively lower production levels being incurred due to natural decline, down approximately 96% since peak production rates occurred during 2011, given no new wells have been drilled since 2011. The Company anticipates that as new wells come online, the netback will increase substantially.

Bulgarialicense

In October of 2010, the Company was awarded an exploration permit for the “Vranino 1-11 Block”, a 98,205 acre oil and gas exploration land located in Dobrudja Basin, Bulgaria, by the Bulgarian Counsel of Ministers. On April 1, 2014, the Company entered into an Agreement for Crude Oil and Natural Gas Prospecting and Exploration in the Vranino 1-11 Block with the Ministry of Economy and Energy of Bulgaria (the “License Agreement”). The initial term of the License Agreement is five years. This five-year period will commence once the Bulgarian regulatory authorities approve of the Company’s work programs for the permit area. The License Agreement (or applicable legislation) provides for possible extension periods for up to five additional years during the exploration phase, as well as the conversion of the License Agreement to an exploitation concession, which can last for up to 35 years. Under the License Agreement, the Company will submit a yearly work program that is subject to the approval of the Bulgarian regulatory authorities.

Before the license for the Bulgarian CBM project is “effective”, the Company’s overall work program and first year annual work program must be approved by both the Bulgarian environmental ministry and the energy ministry. On August 26, 2014, the Bulgarian environmental agency approved the Company’s overall work program and first year annual work program. A number of parties appealed the decision of the environmental agency and an appeal proceeding was commenced before a three-judge administrative panel. The three-judge panel issued a decision on February 3, 2017 in which it ruled that the environmental agency had failed to follow its own regulations in approving the Company’s work programs. Both the environmental agency and the Company have appealed the decision to a five-judge panel whose decision will be final.

StrategicFocus

Our focus currently is obtaining funding to produce our reserves in our oil and gas fields in Turkey, which we expect will generate significant cash-flow and profits for the Company. Further development is contingent upon receiving further funding, and our plan is to further develop the fields when funding is received. The Bulgaria license area holds great upside attraction as a potential coal bed methane exploration project. The license area was extensively drilled for coal exploration from 1964 to 1990. It was determined that coal mining was not technically feasible. However, the coal exploration drilling provided us with an extensive database.

Results of Operations

The following summary of our results of operations should be read in conjunction with our unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 which are included herein.

Revenue

For the three months ended September 30, 2020, the Company had oil and gas revenue of $493,609, compared to $914,791 for the three months ended September 30, 2019. Revenue decreased mainly due to the devaluation of the Turkish Lira compared to the U.S. dollar of approximately 22% over the comparable period and a 13% decrease in gross revenue in Turkish Lira, primarily driven by decreases in oil price and a marginal decrease in production output primarily due to the field’s normal decline rate and relatively high WC%. Oil and gas revenue denominated in Turkish Liras was ₺4,544,765 for three months ended September 30, 2020, compared to ₺ 5,202,155 for the three months ended September 30, 2019.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company had oil and gas revenue of $1,773,073, compared to $2,939,263 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. Revenue decreased partially due to the devaluation of the Turkish Lira compared to the U.S. dollar of approximately 22% over the comparable period and a 23% decrease in gross revenue in Turkish Lira, primarily driven by decreases in oil price and a marginal decrease in production output primarily due to the field’s normal decline rate and relatively high WC%. Oil and gas revenue denominated in Turkish Liras was ₺ 12,836,819 for nine months ended September 30, 2020, compared to ₺16,581,285 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019.

Expenses

For the three months ended September 30, 2020, the Company incurred production expenses related to its Turkey operations of $488,930 (2019 - $643,202), depletion charges of $65,630 (2019 - $152,120), depreciation expense of $22,132 (2019 - $7,779) and asset retirement obligation accretion expense of $95,435 (2019 - $105,749). Production expenses decreased by $154,272 largely due to devaluation of the Turkish Lira compared to the U.S. dollar of approximately 22% over the comparable period, as well as marginally lower production volumes as discussed above. Depletion expenses were reduced by $86,490 over the comparable quarter primarily due to updated reserve reports received December 31, 2019 which significantly decreased the depletion rate. Depreciation increased by $14,353 for the three months ended September 30, 2020 primarily due to the accelerated depreciation of leasehold improvements after terminating an office lease arrangement in the comparative period. Accretion of asset retirement costs decreased by $10,314 for the three months ended September 30, 2020 primarily due to revaluation of the asset retirement obligation at December 31, 2019 which decreased the carrying value of the obligation.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company incurred production expenses related to its Turkey operations of $1,688,342 (2019 - $1,970,397), depletion charges of $201,875 (2019 - $468,373), depreciation expense of $35,106 (2019 - $31,425) and asset retirement obligation accretion expense of $279,377 (2019 - $309,572).

Future Operating Requirements

Based on our current plan of operations and due to a decline in oil prices, we estimate that we will require approximately $850,000 to cover our plan of operations over the next 12 months. We plan to spend approximately $50,000 on an environmental report for Bulgaria Vranino exploration block. We also plan to improve our working capital surplus by raising cash and paying off accounts payable. We will require approximately $800,000 for general and administrative expenses.

Based on the recent increase in reserves on SASB, our current plan of operations is the drilling of up to five (5) new wells at SASB and to reenter three existing wells to perform workovers to increase gas production. Depending on the timing of the drilling operations at our current interest (currently 49%), we project we will incur up to an additional $16 to $25 million in capital expenditures over the next 12 months to enable us to conduct such operations.

To reduce our current outstanding trade payables and indebtedness will require approximately $1.2 million; however, we may be able to negotiate terms that will require a lesser amount. To pay for the SASB drilling campaign, we will require an additional $20 million.

As of September 30, 2020, the Company had unrestricted cash of $244,871. The Company is attempting to raise additional capital to fund its future exploration and operating requirements.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

On October 1, 2018 the Company entered into an agreement to grant to a consultant of the Company a 2% (two percent) gross overriding royalty on petroleum substances produced from certain of its currently undeveloped exploration properties, namely: Block 1-11 Vranino situated in Dobrich District, Bulgaria and seven contiguous exploration licences in the province of Hakkari Yuksekova Semdiali Derecik, Turkey. The Grant of the royalty agreement was for services involving technical and corporate advisory services.

On October 1, 2018 the Company entered into an agreement to grant to the CEO of the Company a 0.5% (one half of one percent) gross overriding royalty on petroleum substances produced from certain of its currently undeveloped exploration properties, namely: Block 1-11 Vranino situated in Dobrich District, Bulgaria and seven contiguous exploration licences in the province of Hakkari Yuksekova Semdiali Derecik, Turkey.

Forward-Looking Information

Certain statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of applicable U.S. securities legislation. Additionally, forward-looking statements may be made orally or in press releases, conferences, reports, on our website or otherwise, in the future, by us or on our behalf. Such statements are generally identifiable by the terminology used such as “plans,” “expects,” “estimates,” “budgets,” “intends,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “projects,” “indicates,” “targets,” “objective,” “could,” “should,” “may” or other similar words.

By their very nature, forward-looking statements require us to make assumptions that may not materialize or that may not be accurate. Forward-looking statements are subject to known and unknown risks and uncertainties and other factors that may cause actual results, levels of activity and achievements to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such statements, including the factors discussed under Item 1A. Risk Factors in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K. Such factors include, but are not limited to, the following: fluctuations in and volatility of the market prices for oil and natural gas products; the ability to produce and transport oil and natural gas; the results of exploration and development drilling and related activities; global economic conditions, particularly in the countries in which we carry on business, especially economic slowdowns; actions by governmental authorities including increases in taxes, legislative and regulatory initiatives related to fracture stimulation activities, changes in environmental and other regulations, and renegotiations of contracts; political uncertainty, including actions by insurgent groups or other conflicts; the negotiation and closing of material contracts; future capital requirements and the availability of financing; estimates and economic assumptions used in connection with our acquisitions; risks associated with drilling, operating and decommissioning wells; actions of third-party co-owners of interests in properties in which we also own an interest; our ability to effectively integrate companies and properties that we acquire; our limited operating history; our history of operating losses; our lack of insurance coverage; and the other factors discussed in other documents that we file with or furnish to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. The impact of any one factor on a particular forward-looking statement is not determinable with certainty as such factors are interdependent upon other factors and our course of action would depend upon our assessment of the future, considering all information then available. In that regard, any statements as to: future oil or natural gas production levels; capital expenditures; the allocation of capital expenditures to exploration and development activities; sources of funding for our capital expenditure programs; drilling of new wells; demand for oil and natural gas products; expenditures and allowances relating to environmental matters; dates by which certain areas will be developed or will come on-stream; expected finding and development costs; future production rates; ultimate recoverability of reserves, including the ability to convert probable and possible reserves to proved reserves; dates by which transactions are expected to close; future cash flows, uses of cash flows, collectability of receivables and availability of trade credit; expected operating costs; changes in any of the foregoing and other statements using forward-looking terminology are forward-looking statements, and there can be no assurance that the expectations conveyed by such forward-looking statements will, in fact, be realized.

Although we believe that the expectations conveyed by the forward-looking statements are reasonable based on information available to us on the date such forward-looking statements were made, no assurances can be given as to future results, levels of activity, achievements or financial condition.

Readers should not place undue reliance on any forward-looking statement and should recognize that the statements are predictions of future results, which may not occur as anticipated. Actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in the forward-looking statements and from historical results, due to the risks and uncertainties described above, as well as others not now anticipated. The foregoing statements are not exclusive and further information concerning us, including factors that potentially could materially affect our financial results, may emerge from time to time. We do not intend to update forward-looking statements to reflect actual results or changes in factors or assumptions affecting such forward-looking statements.
