Caution Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
The statements contained in this Annual Report on Form 10-K that are not historical facts are forward-looking
statements, as this term is defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, that involve risks
and uncertainties. These statements can be identified by the use of words such as “anticipate,” “believe,”
“estimate,” “expect,” “plan,” “intend,” “can,” “may,” “could” or other comparable words. Our forward-
looking statements are based on currently available operational, financial and competitive information and
management’s current expectations, estimates and projections. These forward-looking statements include:
•expectations regarding revenue, expenses, capital expenditures and financial position in future periods;
•our ability to broaden our customer reach and expand our market share;
•pursuit of growth opportunities;
•the potential need to obtain future financing; and
•our ability to fund our business plan and repay our scheduled obligations.
Readers are cautioned that these forward-looking statements are only predictions and are subject to a number
of both known and unknown risks and uncertainties. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties
materialize, or should our underlying assumptions prove incorrect, our actual results in future periods may
differ materially from the future results, performance, and/or achievements expressed or implied in this
document. These risks include any failure by us to:
•generate funds from operations sufficient to meet our cash requirements and execute our business strategy;
•prevail in our legal proceedings;
•increase the volume of traffic on our network; and
•achieve and maintain market penetration and revenue levels given the highly competitive nature of the
telecommunications industry.
For a detailed discussion of risk factors affecting our business and operations, see Item 1A “Risk Factors” of
this Annual Report. We undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result
of new information, future events or otherwise. These forward-looking statements should not be relied on as
representing our estimates or views as of any subsequent date.
