Cautionary Language Concerning
Forward-Looking Statements
Certain statements included in this press release constitute
"forward-looking information" within the meaning of applicable
securities laws in each of the provinces and territories of
Canada and the respective
policies, regulations and rules under such laws and
"forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the U.S. Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (collectively,
"forward-looking statements"). The words "will" and "expects" (and
grammatical variations of such terms) and similar expressions are
often intended to identify forward-looking statements, although not
all forward-looking statements contain these identifying words.
Specific forward-looking statements in this press release include,
but are not limited to, statements regarding the expected timing
and completion of the redemption of the Notes and their delisting
from the New York Stock Exchange. These statements are based on
factors or assumptions that were applied in drawing a conclusion or
making a forecast or projection, including assumptions based on
historical trends, current conditions and expected future
developments. Since forward-looking statements relate to future
events and conditions, by their very nature they require making
assumptions and involve inherent risks and uncertainties. AQN
cautions that although it is believed that the assumptions are
reasonable in the circumstances, these risks and uncertainties give
rise to the possibility that actual results may differ materially
from the expectations set out in the forward-looking statements.
Forward-looking statements contained herein are provided for the
purposes of presenting information about management's current
expectations and plans relating to the future and such information
may not be appropriate for other purposes. Material risk factors
and assumptions include those set out in AQN's Annual Information
Form and Management Discussion & Analysis for the year ended
December 31, 2022, and in AQN's
Management Discussion & Analysis for the three and six months
ended June 30, 2023, each of which is
available on SEDAR+ and EDGAR.
Given these risks, undue reliance should not be placed on these
forward-looking statements, which apply only as of their dates.
Other than as specifically required by law, AQN undertakes no
obligation to update any forward-looking statements to reflect new
information, subsequent or otherwise.
