PAST PERFORMANCE MAY NOT BE REPEATED. Investing in securities can involve significant risks and the value of an investment may go down as well as up. There is no guarantee of performance. An investment in securities is not intended as a complete investment program and should only be made after consultation with independent investment and tax advisors. Only investors who do not require immediate liquidity of their investment should consider a potential purchase of securities of Related Issuers. The risks involved in this type of investment may be greater than those normally associated with other types of investments. It is important for an investor to consider the particular risk factors that may affect the industry in which it is investing and therefore the stability of the distributions that it receives. The recovery of an initial investment is at risk, and the anticipated return on such an investment is based on many performance assumptions. There can be no assurance that income tax laws and the treatment of mutual fund trusts will not be changed in a manner which adversely affects an investment. Please refer to the appropriate Offering Memorandum for a further discussion of the risks of investing in securities.
The Website contains “forward-looking information” within the meaning of applicable securities legislation. Forward-looking information may relate to future events or performance. Forward-looking information includes, but is not limited to information regarding an entities distributions, growth potential and volatility, investor returns, ability to achieve operational efficiencies and other statements that are not historical facts. These statements are based upon assumptions that management believes are reasonable, but there can be no assurance that actual results will be consistent with these forward-looking statements. Forward-looking information involves numerous assumptions, known and unknown risks and uncertainties that contribute to the possibility that the forward-looking statements will not occur and may cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated in such forward-looking statements. Risks of an investment are generally discussed in an Offering Memorandum. These forward-looking statements are made as of the date of this communication and neither Equiton Partners Inc., nor any Related Issuer, or any other entity are under any duty to update any of the forward-looking statements after the date of this communication other than as otherwise required by applicable legislation.
