This press release contains forward-looking statements, which are statements related to future events. In this context, forward-looking statements often address RNB’s expected future business and financial performance, and often contain words such as "expect”, "anticipate”, "intend”, "plan”, "believe”, "seek”, or "will”.

Forward-looking statements by their nature address matters that are, to different degrees, uncertain and can be influenced by many factors, including the behaviour of financial markets, fluctuations in interest and exchange rates, commodity and equity prices and the value of financial assets; the impact of regulation and regulatory, investigative and legal actions; strategic actions; and numerous other matters of national, regional and global scale, including those of a political, economic, business and competitive nature. These factors may cause RNB’s actual future results to be materially different than those expressed in its forward-looking statements. RNB does not undertake to update its forward-looking statements.
