This News Release includes certain forward-looking statements which are based on information currently available to management of Hornby Bay, and Hornby Bay provides no assurance that actual results will meet management's expectations. Forward-looking statements include estimates and statements that describe Hornby Bay's future plans, objectives or goals, including words to the effect that Hornby Bay or management expects a stated condition or result to occur.
