Forward-Looking Statements

 

This current report on Form 8-K contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such statements include, but are not limited to, statements about BioSante’s plans with respect to the LibiGel clinical development program and other statements identified by words such as “plans,” “intends,” “anticipates,” “continue,” “believes,” “expects,” “may,” “could,” “will,” other words of similar meaning, derivations of such words and the use of future dates. Forward-looking statements by their nature address matters that are, to different degrees, uncertain. Uncertainties and risks may cause BioSante’s actual results to be materially different than those expressed in or implied by BioSante’s forward-looking statements. For BioSante, particular uncertainties and risks include, among others, uncertainties regarding clinical testing, the difficulty of developing pharmaceutical products, obtaining regulatory and other approvals and achieving market acceptance; the marketing and other success of BioSante’s licensees or sublicensees and BioSante´s future revenues, if any, from its licensees and sublicensees; uncertainties relating to the future and costs of BioSante’s product development programs and BioSante´s need for and ability to obtain additional financing. More detailed information on these and additional factors that could affect BioSante’s actual results are described in BioSante’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including its most recent annual report on Form 10-K and subsequent quarterly report on Form 10-Q. The risks and uncertainties described in BioSante’s most recent annual report on Form 10-K and subsequent quarterly report on Form 10-Q are not exclusive and further information concerning BioSante and its business, including factors that potentially could materially affect its financial results or condition, may emerge from time to time. All forward-looking statements in this report speak only as of the date of this report and are based on BioSante’s current beliefs and expectations. BioSante undertakes no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.  BioSante advises you, however, to consult any further disclosures BioSante makes on related subjects in its future annual reports on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and current reports on Form 8-K that BioSante files with or furnishes to the Securities and Exchange Commission.
