2 Forward-Looking Statements During our meeting today we will make forward-looking statements. Any statement that refers to expectations, projections or other characterizations of future events or circumstances is a forward-looking statement, including those relating to market position, market growth, product sales, industry trends, supply chain, future memory technology, production capacity, production costs, technology transitions and future products. This presentation also contains forward-looking statements attributed to third parties, which reflect their projections as of the date of issuance. Actual results may differ materially from those expressed in these forward-looking statements due to a number of risks and uncertainties, including the factors detailed under the caption Risk Factors and elsewhere in the documents we file from time to time with the SEC, including our annual and quarterly reports. We undertake no obligation to update these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date hereof or as of the date of issuance by a third party, as the case may be. 2
