Forward-Looking Statements
Investors are cautioned that some of the statements we use in these materials contain forward-looking statements and are
made pursuant to the “safe-harbor” provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking
statements involve a number of risks and uncertainties and depend upon future events or conditions. Actual events or results
might differ materially from those expressed or forecasted in these forward-looking statements. Accordingly, we cannot
guarantee you that our plans and expectations will be achieved. Such statements may include, but are not limited to,
statements about the benefits of the proposed transaction, including future financial and operating results, the combined
company’s plans, objectives, expectations and intentions and other statements that are not historical facts. Important factors
that could cause actual events or results to differ materially from those anticipated by our forward-looking statements or
historical performance associated with the proposed acquisition of ACTIVE Network include the ability to meet closing
conditions at all or on the expected terms and schedule, business disruption during the pendency of the acquisition or
thereafter making it more difficult to maintain business and operational relationships, including the possibility that our
announcement of the acquisition could disrupt our or ACTIVE Network’s relationships with financial institutions, customers,
employees or other partners; and difficulties and delays in integrating the ACTIVE Network business or fully realizing benefits
of the acquisition at all or within the expected time period. Additional factors that could cause events or results to differ
materially from those anticipated by our forward-looking statements or historical performance can be found in our Transition
Report on Form 10-K for the seven months ended December 31, 2016, and any subsequent filings with the Securities and
Exchange Commission. Our forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made and should not be relied
