NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

Some information in this report may contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the U.S. Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934. We have based these forward-looking statements on our current beliefs, expectations and intentions as to facts, actions and events that will or may occur in the future. Such statements generally are identified by forward-looking words such as “believe,” “plan,” “anticipate,” “continue,” “estimate,” “expect,” “may,” “will” or other similar words.

A forward-looking statement may include a statement of the assumptions or bases underlying the forward-looking statement. We have chosen these assumptions or bases in good faith. These forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions, some of which are beyond our control. In addition, these forward-looking statements reflect our current views with respect to future events and are not a guarantee of future performance. Actual results may differ materially from information contained in the forward-looking statements as a result of a number of factors, including, without limitation, the risk factors set forth in “Item 3. Key Information – Risk Factors” in our annual report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008. You should also keep in mind that any forward-looking statement made by us in this report or elsewhere speaks only as at the date on which we made it. New risks and uncertainties come up from time to time, and it is impossible for us to predict these events or how they may affect us. We have no duty to, and do not intend to, update or revise the statements in this report after the date hereof. In light of these risks and uncertainties, you should keep in mind that actual results may differ materially from any forward-looking statement made in this report or elsewhere.

We refer to our disclosure letter dated November 3, 2009 under SEC Form 17-C, which we submitted on the same date to your good Office via OdiSy (Reference No. WLIST_2009000015337).

 

The cash dividend amount for the Company’s Series VI Convertible Preferred Stock was erroneously stated as P0.001103. This should be $0.001103. Thus, our disclosure should read as follows:

 

X X X X X

 

2. $0.001103 per day per outstanding share of the Company’s Series VI Convertible Preferred Stock which were originally issued on November 8, 2002 and scheduled for mandatory conversion into Common Stock of the Company on November 9, 2009 (the “Converted CPS VI”), for the period October 16, 2009 to November 8, 2009, payable on December 8, 2009 to the holders of record of said Converted CPS VI at the close of business on November 8, 2009.”
