This communication includes certain statements that may constitute "forward-looking statements" for purposes of the federal securities laws. Forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements that refer to projections, forecasts or other characterizations of future events or circumstances, including any underlying assumptions. The words "anticipate," "believe," "continue," "could," "estimate," "expect," "intends," "may," "might," "plan," "possible," "potential," "predict," "project," "should," "would" and similar expressions may identify forward-looking statements, but the absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking. Forward-looking statements may include, for example, statements about the benefits of the transaction described in this communication; the future financial performance of NCF Wealth Holdings Limited; changes in NCF Wealth Holdings Limited's reserves and future operating results; and expansion plans and opportunities. These forward-looking statements are based on information available as of the date of this communication, and current expectations, forecasts and assumptions, and involve a number of judgments, risks and uncertainties. Accordingly, forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as representing NCF Wealth Holdings Limited's views as of any subsequent date, and NCF Wealth Holdings Limited does not undertake any obligation to update forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date they were made, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as may be required under applicable securities laws.

As a result of a number of known and unknown risks and uncertainties, NCF Wealth Holdings Limited's actual results or performance may be materially different from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. Some factors that could cause actual results to differ include NCF Wealth Holdings Limited's ability to recognize the anticipated benefits of the transaction, which may be affected by, among other things, competition and the ability of NCF Wealth Holdings Limited to grow and manage growth profitably following the transaction; changes in applicable laws or regulations; the possibility that NCF Wealth Holdings Limited may be adversely affected by other economic, business, and/or competitive factors; and other risks and uncertainties indicated in Hunter's public filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
