FORWARD-LOOKING
STATEMENTS
This
Current Report on Form 8-K, including the exhibits hereto, contains
forward-looking statements identified by words such as “estimate,” “project,”
“expect,” “intend,” “believe,” “anticipate” and similar expressions regarding
the potential merger with Stink and our expectations regarding the effects
of
such transaction. Those statements involve risks and uncertainties, and actual
results could differ materially from those discussed. Factors that could cause
or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to: (i) the
timing of the closing, if any, of the mergers with Psyop and with Stink; (ii)
the completion to our satisfaction of due diligence regarding Stink; (iii)
our
ability to negotiate a definitive agreement with Stink; (iv) our ability to
obtain the required corporate, stockholder and, if applicable, third-party
and
governmental approvals; (v) the possibility that the Stink transaction may
not
close; (vi) our ability to negotiate mutually acceptable employment arrangements
with key employees of Stink; (vii) our ability to successfully integrate the
businesses of Psyop and Stink; and (viii) the performance of the combined
business to operate successfully and generate growth.
You
should not place any undue reliance on these forward looking statements which
speak only as of the date of this Current Report. Additional information
concerning factors that might affect our business or stock price which could
cause actual results to materially differ from those in forward-looking
statements is contained in Fortissimo’s SEC filings, including its Definitive
Proxy Statement filed on August 12, 2008, a Proxy Statement Supplement expected
to be filed in the near future relating to the entering into of the non-binding
letter of intent with Stink, its Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year
ended
December 31, 2007 and other periodic reports under the Securities Exchange
Act
of 1934, as amended, copies of which are available upon request from
Fortissimo.
On
September 10, 2008, Fortissimo Acquisition Corp. (“Fortissimo”) announced that
it had signed a non-binding letter of intent relating to the potential
acquisition of Stink Ltd. by the combined entity which will result from the
merger of Fortissimo with Psyop, Inc. (“Psyop”) if all of the conditions to that
merger are met, including the approval of the requisite percentage of
Fortissimo’s stockholders.
No
binding agreement has been signed with Stink Ltd. and there can be no assurance
either that such a binding agreement will be entered into or that any
transaction with Stink Ltd. will ultimately be consummated. Fortissimo
stockholders are advised to make their decision on whether to vote to approve
the merger between Fortissimo and Psyop without taking into account whether
or
not a transaction with Stink Ltd. will ultimately be consummated.
The
non-binding letter of intent is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is
incorporated herein by reference. In addition, Fortissimo’s press release, dated
September 10, 2008, announcing its execution of the non-binding letter of
intent, is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.2 and is incorporated herein by
reference.
