Forward-Looking Information

This press release contains “forward-looking information” within the meaning of applicable Canadian securities legislation. Forward-looking information includes, but is not limited to, statements in regard to the Ethereum platform and protocol, the timing and implications of Ethereum’s proof of stake network upgrade (including launch of the beacon chain), the Company’s plans with respect to providing future updates on proof of stake developments, Ether Capital’s future plans to make a greater commitment of its Ether holdings to staking, the potential for Ether Capital to earn an Ether-denominated yield on a portion of its Ether holdings that it devotes to staking, the market for crypto-assets, the anticipated transaction settlement volume over Ethereum in 2020, and the Company’s business, plans and strategy. The Company cautions the reader not to place undue reliance upon any such forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date they are made. Generally, but not always, forward-looking information can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as “plans”, “expects” or “does not expect”, “is expected”, “budget”, “scheduled”, “estimates”, “forecasts”, “intends”, “on pace”, “anticipates”, or “does not anticipate”, “believes”, and similar expressions or state that certain actions, events or results “may”, “could”, “would”, “should”, “might”, or “will” be taken, occur or be achieved.

Forward-looking statements are based on information available to management at the time they are made, management’s current plans, estimates, assumptions, judgments and expectations. These estimates, assumptions, judgments and expectations include that the COVID-19 pandemic and the response to it will not have a materially different impact on the Company’s business and assets than currently anticipated by management, that there will be an eventual recovery of global economic conditions, that Ethereum 2.0 upgrades will occur on the timelines anticipated and will contain the functionality expected by management, and other matters discussed in the Company’s materials filed with the Canadian securities regulatory authorities from time to time. Forward-looking information is subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause the actual results, level of activity, performance or achievements of the Company to be materially different from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking information. Such risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to: general business, economic, competitive, geopolitical, technological and social uncertainties; uncertainties in regard to the development and acceptance of blockchain technology and the Ethereum platform (including Ethereum 2.0), anticipated timing and impact of the Ethereum 2.0 network upgrade, that the risk that the price of Ether may materially decline, the impact of the outbreak of the COVID-19 coronavirus on the Company, and the other risk factors discussed in the Company’s Annual Information Form dated March 25, 2020, the Risk Factors section in its most recently filed management’s discussion and analysis and its other filings available on-line at www.sedar.com. Although the forward-looking information contained in this press release is based on assumptions that the Company believes to be reasonable at the date such statements are made, there can be no assurance that the forward-looking information will prove to be accurate, as actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such forward-looking information. In addition, the Company cautions the reader that information provided in this press release is provided in order to give context to the nature of some of the Company’s future plans and may not be appropriate for other purposes. Accordingly, readers should not place undue reliance on forward-looking information. The Company does not undertake to update or revise any forward-looking information, except in accordance with applicable securities laws.
