Note: Except for historical information, all other statements in this report are forward-looking within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The actual results of the Debtors and their operating subsidiaries (collectively the Company) may vary materially from these forward-looking statements due to important risk factors, including the Companys historical lack of profitability; uncertainties associated with the outcomes of certain pending legal matters, including the bankruptcy proceedings; the Companys leveraged financial structure; the Companys ability to comply with certain governmental regulations; the Companys need to obtain additional financing or equity; the Companys limited liquidity; the Companys dependence upon its relationships with third party payers and the prices paid by such third party payers for the Companys services; and certain other factors. Risk factors are described in greater detail in the Companys Annual Reports on Form 10-K, Form 10-Q Quarterly Reports and Form 8-K Current Reports on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
