However, there can be no assurance that such assumptions will reflect the actual outcome of such items or factors. By its nature, forward-looking information involves known and unknown risks, uncertainties, changes in circumstances and other factors that are difficult to predict and many of which are outside of the Company’s control which may cause actual results to differ materially from any future or potential results expressed or implied by such forward-looking information.Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those indicated in the forward-looking information include, among others: (i) the possibility that the Transaction will not be completed on the terms and conditions, or on the timing, currently contemplated, and that it may not be completed at all, due to a failure to obtain or satisfy, in a timely manner or otherwise, required Securityholder, court, third-party and regulatory approvals or for other reasons; (ii) the risk that shareholders who have entered into voting and support agreements may not comply with their obligations thereunder or may not vote their Shares in favour of the Transaction; (iii) the possibility of adverse reactions or changes in business resulting from the announcement or completion of the Transaction; (iv) risks relating to the Company’s ability to retain and attract key personnel during the interim period; (v) the possibility of litigation relating to the Transaction; (vi) the potential of a third party making a superior proposal; (vii) risks related to diverting management’s attention from the Company’s ongoing business operations; and (viii) other risks inherent to the business carried out by the Company and factors beyond its control which could have a material adverse effect on the Company or its ability to complete the Transaction. The Company has assumed that the risk factors referred to above will not cause such forward-looking statements and information to differ materially from actual results or events. The reader is cautioned to consider these and other factors, uncertainties and potential events carefully and not to put undue reliance on forward-looking statements.Other than as specifically required by applicable Canadian law, the Company undertakes no obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances after the date on which such statement is made, whether as a result of new information, future events or results, or otherwise.View source version on businesswire.com: Notice for the Postmedia NetworkThis website uses cookies to personalize your content (including ads), and allows us to analyze our traffic.
