include, but are not limited to, the completion of the Petroamerica Arrangement and the timing of the Meeting. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, as there can be no assurance that the plans, intentions or expectations upon which they are based will occur. By their nature, forward-looking statements involve numerous assumptions, known and unknown risks and uncertainties, both general and specific, that contribute to the possibility that the predictions, estimates, forecasts, projections and other forward-looking statements will not occur, which may cause actual performance and results in future periods to differ materially from any estimates or projections of future performance or results expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements.

You can find an additional discussion of those assumptions, risks and uncertainties in Suroco's and Petroamerica's Canadian securities filings.
Although Suroco has attempted to identify important factors that could cause actual actions, events, results, performance or achievements to differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements or information contained in this press release, there may be other factors that cause actions, events, results, performance or achievements not to be as anticipated, estimated or intended.
