Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.
Statements included in this current Report and the documents incorporated
by reference which are not historical in nature are intended to be, and
are hereby identified as, "forward-looking statements" for purposes of the
safe harbor provided by Section 21E of the Exchange Act. Forward-looking
statements may be identified by words including "anticipates," "intends,"
"estimates," "believes," "projects," "expects," "plans," "assumes,"
"seeks," and similar expressions. Forward-looking statements including,
without limitation, those relating to Registrants' future business
prospects, revenues, proceeds, working capital, liquidity, income, and
margins, are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause
actual results to differ materially from those indicated in the
forward-looking statements, due to several important factors, including
those identified from time-to-time in the forward-looking statements.
Those factors include, but are not limited to: weather; fuel prices; corn
and ethanol prices; plant capacity factors; energy supply and demand;
interest rates; potential future acquisitions; developments in the
legislative, regulatory, and competitive environment; market risks;
electric and natural gas industry restructuring and cost recovery; the
ability to obtain adequate and timely rate relief; changes in fuel supply
or costs including future market prices for energy, capacity, and
ancillary services; the success of strategies to satisfy electricity,
natural gas, fuel oil, and propane requirements; the outcome of pending
litigation and certain environmental matters, particularly the status of
inactive hazardous waste disposal sites and waste site remediation
requirements; and certain presently unknown or unforeseen factors,
including, but not limited to, acts of terrorism. Registrants undertake no
obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a
result of new information, future events, or otherwise.
Given these uncertainties, undue reliance should not be placed on the
forward-looking statements.
