Caution Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This MD&A and annual report include forward-looking statements and assumptions concerning the future performance
of our business, its operations and its financial performance and condition. These forward-looking statements include,
among others, statements with respect to our objectives and strategies to achieve those objectives, as well as statements
with respect to our beliefs, plans, expectations, anticipations, estimates or intentions. These forward-looking statements
also include, but are not limited to, financial guidance relating to revenue, operating profit and PP&E expenditures,
expected growth in subscribers, the deployment of new services, integration costs, and other statements that are not
historical facts. These forward-looking statements are based on our current expectations. We caution that all forward-
looking information is inherently uncertain and that actual results may differ materially from the conclusions, forecasts or
projections reflected or contained in the forward-looking information, and that actual future performance will be affected
by a number of material factors, including economic conditions, technological change, the integration of acquisitions,
regulatory change and competitive factors, many of which are beyond our control. Therefore, future events and results
may vary significantly from what we currently foresee. Forward-looking statements and assumptions for time periods
subsequent to 2006 by their nature involve longer-term assumptions and estimates than those for 2006 and are consequently
subject to greater uncertainty; therefore, the reader is especially cautioned not to place undue reliance on such longer-term
forward-looking statements. We are under no obligation (and we expressly disclaim any such obligation) to update or
alter any forward-looking statements or assumptions whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
For a more detailed discussion of the material factors or assumptions that were applied in drawing conclusions or making
a forecast or projection set out in such forward-looking information, see the sections of this MD&A entitled “Risks and
Uncertainties” and “Material Assumptions”.
