The use of any of the words “expect”, “anticipate”, “continue”, “estimate”, “objective”, “ongoing”, “may”, “will”, “project”, “should”, “believe”, “plans”, “intends” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements or information. In particular this news release contains forward-looking statements and information relating to the completion of the Arrangements and the timing thereof. Although FRK and Arrow believe that the expectations and assumptions on which the forward-looking statements and information are based are reasonable, undue reliance should not be placed on the forward-looking statements and information because FRK and Arrow cannot give any assurance that they will prove to be correct. Since forward-looking statements and information address future events and conditions, by their very nature they involve inherent risks and uncertainties. The forward-looking statements and information is based on certain key expectations and assumptions made by management of each of FRK and Arrow, including expectations and assumptions concerning: the satisfaction of all conditions to the closing of the Arrangement and on the time frames contemplated; New Arrow’s ability to develop the assets and obtain the benefits thereof; the ability to efficiently integrate the assets; prevailing and future commodity prices, exchange rate, interest rates, inflation rates, applicable royalty rates and tax laws; future production rates and estimates of operating costs; performance of existing and future wells; reserves volumes; anticipated timing and results of capital expenditures in carrying out planned activities; the state of the economy and the exploration and production business; the regulatory framework regarding royalties, taxes and environmental laws; results of operations; performance; business prospectus and opportunities. Actual results could differ materially from those currently anticipated due to a number of factors and risk. These include but are not limited to: failure to complete the Arrangement in all material respects; failure to obtain in a timely manner, shareholder, regulatory, stock exchange, court and other required approvals in connection with the Arrangement; the failure to realize the anticipated benefits of the Arrangement; unforeseen difficulties in integrating the assets in New Arrow’s operations; risks associated with the oil and gas industry in general (e.g., operational risks in development, exploration and production; delays or changes in plans with respect to exploration or development projects or capital expenditures; the uncertainty of reserve estimates; the uncertainty of estimates and projections relating to production, costs and expenses; failure to obtain necessary regulatory approvals for planned operations; health, safety and environmental risks; uncertainties resulting from potential delays or changes in plans with respect to exploration or development projects or capital expenditures; volatility of commodity prices, currency exchange rate fluctuations; imprecision of reserve estimates; and competition from other explorers) as well as general economic conditions, stock market volatility, and the ability to access sufficient capital.
