ITEM 5. OTHER EVENTS.
Vision Twenty-One, Inc. (the "Company") will require additional time
to file its 1999 Annual Report on Form 10-K with the Securities and Exchange
Commission which was due to be filed today. The delay is related to matters
associated with discontinued operations. The Company is diligently working to
complete its Form 10-K and expects to be in a position to file it on or before
April 28, 2000.
SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This Form 8-K contains certain statements which constitute "forward-looking
statements" within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933 and Securities
Exchange Act of 1934. The terms "Vision Twenty-One," "company," "we," "our" and
"us" refer to Vision Twenty-One, Inc. The words "expect," "believe," "goal,"
"plan," "intend," "estimate," and similar expressions and variations thereof
are intended to specifically identify forward-looking statements. Those
statements appear in the press release, and include statements regarding the
intent, belief or current expectations of the company, its directors or its
officers with respect to the timing of our filing of our Form 10-K. You are
cautioned that any such forward looking statements are not guarantees of future
performance and involve risks and uncertainties, and that actual results may
differ materially from those projected in the forward looking statements as a
result of various factors. The factors that might cause such differences
include, among others, our inability to timely resolve the matters associated
with our discontinued operations. The Company undertakes no obligation to
publicly update or revise forward looking statements to reflect events or
circumstances after the date of this Form 8-K or to reflect the occurrence of
unanticipated events.
