The press release furnished with this Form 8-K contains forward-looking statements. Such forward-looking statements include all statements other than statements of historical fact. These forward-looking statements are inherently difficult to predict. The structure and terms of any initial coin offering or similar transaction that tZERO may ultimately undertake may be significantly different from the structure currently contemplated and described in the press release for a variety of reasons, including legal, regulatory and commercial considerations. All forward-looking statements are also subject to the risks described in our Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2017 which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 3, 2017. The Form 10-Q and our subsequent filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission identify important factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those contained in or contemplated by our forward-looking statements.
