All such forward -looking information is based on certain assumptions and analyses which management of Avante believes to be reasonable in light of its experience and perception of historical trends, current conditions and expected future developments, as well as other factors that management believes to be appropriate in the circumstances. Such assumptions include: trends in the physical security industry; the ability of Avante to raise capital on acceptable terms; general and administrative expenses and interest expenses; Avante’s ability to maintain existing customer, supplier and partner relationships; the ability of Avante’s managem ent team to execute Avante’s business strategy, and other matters.

The risks, uncertainties and other factors are difficult to predict and may include, without limitation, risks relating to: general economic conditions; industry conditions; the ability of Avante to raise capital; operating risks; risks inherent in the ability to generate sufficient cash flow from operations to meet current and future obligations; increased competition; stock market volatility; opportunities available to or pursued by Avante, and other f actors, many of which are beyond Avante’s control. The foregoing factors are not exhaustive. Although Avante has attempted to identify important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those statements containing forward-looking information, there may be other factors that cause results not to be as anticipated, estimated or intended. There can be no assurance that such statements will prove to be accurate, as actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such statements.
