PRIVATE SECURITIES LITIGATION REFORM ACT OF 1995
SAFE HARBOR COMPLIANCE STATEMENT
FOR FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
In passing the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (the "Reform
Act"), 15 U.S.C.A. Sections 77z 2 and 78u 5 (Supp. 1996), Congress encouraged
public companies to make "forward looking statements" by creating a safe
harbor to protect companies from securities law liability in connection with
forward looking statements. Oak Brook Capital IV, Inc. ("OAK BROOK" or the
"Company") intends to qualify both its written and oral forward looking
statements for protection under the Reform Act and any other similar safe
harbor provisions.
"Forward looking statements" are defined by the Reform Act. Generally, forward
looking statements include expressed expectations of future events and the
assumptions on which the expressed expectations are based. All forward
looking statements are inherently uncertain as they are based on various
expectations and assumptions concerning future events and they are subject to
numerous known and unknown risks and uncertainties which could cause actual
events or results to differ materially from those projected. Due to those
uncertainties and risks, the investment community is urged not to place undue
reliance on written or oral forward looking statements of OAK BROOK. The
Company undertakes no obligation to update or revise this Safe Harbor
Compliance Statement for Forward Looking Statements (the "Safe Harbor
Statement") to reflect future developments. In addition, OAK BROOK
undertakes no obligation to update or revise forward looking statements to
reflect changed assumptions, the occurrence of unanticipated events or
changes to future operating results over time.
OAK BROOK provides the following risk factor disclosure in connection with its
continuing effort to qualify its written and oral forward looking statements
for the safe harbor protection of the Reform Act and any other similar safe
harbor provisions.
YEAR 2000
It is possible that the Company's currently installed computer systems,
software products or other business systems, or those of the Company's
customers, vendors or resellers, working either alone or in conjunction with
other software or systems, will not accept input of, store, manipulate and
output dates for the year 2000 or thereafter without error or interruption
(commonly known as the "Year 2000" problem). The Company has conducted a
review of its business systems, including its computer systems, and is
querying its customers, vendors and resellers as to their progress in
identifying and addressing problems that their computer systems may face in
correctly interrelating and processing date information as the year 2000
approaches and is reached. Through its review, the Company has identified a
number of older legacy systems that will be abandoned in favor of a limited
number of more efficient processing systems, rather than make all the systems
Year 2000 compatible. Customers, vendors and resellers have been identified
and requests for information distributed regarding the Year 2000 readiness of
such parties.
