Forward-Looking Statements. The Site, and any documents issued by Columbia and available through this Site, may contain statements which constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and applicable Canadian securities laws. Those statements can be identified by the use of words such as "believe," "expect," "plan," "may," "will," "should," "anticipate" or similar statements or the negative of these words. Forward-looking statements include statements made as to future operations, costs, capital expenditures, cash flow, improvements in infrastructure, distribution and replenishment systems and operating efficiencies, sales and earnings estimates or trends and expansion plans and projections. These forward-looking statements are based on our current expectations.

The information contained in the most recent Columbia Annual Reports to stockholders, including information contained under the section captioned "Management’s Discussion and Analysis," as well as other information included under the caption "Risk Factors" and/or in other Columbia filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, identifies important factors that could cause actual results to differ from those contemplated by forward-looking statements.

Columbia has no intention of updating, and specifically disclaims any duty to update, the information in the press releases. To the extent any information therein is forward-looking, it is intended to fit within the safe harbor for forward-looking statements, and is subject to material risk.

Third-Party Financial Information. Columbia may provide links to third-party websites or services that contain financial or investment information about Columbia. Access to such websites and the information contained therein is provided as service to those interested in the information.

Accordingly, Columbia does not endorse or adopt these websites or any information contained therein, including, without limitation, analyst's reports and stock quotes. Columbia makes no representations or warranties whatsoever regarding the accuracy or completeness of the content, information, or opinions of third-party websites or other third-party information that is identified on the Site.
