This excerpt taken from the EYE 8-K filed Jan 13, 2009. Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements This report contains forward-looking statements that involve significant risks and uncertainties. All statements other than statements of historical fact are statements that could be deemed forward-looking statements, including: statements regarding the anticipated timing of filings and approvals relating to the transaction; statements regarding the expected timing of the completion of the transaction; statements regarding the ability to complete the transaction considering the various closing conditions; any statements of expectation or belief; and any statements of assumptions underlying any of the foregoing. Investors and security holders are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. Actual results could differ materially from those currently anticipated due to a number of risks and uncertainties. Risks and uncertainties that could cause results to differ from expectations include: uncertainties as to the timing of the Offer and Merger; uncertainties as to how many of the Companys stockholders will tender their Shares in the Offer; the risk that competing offers will be made; the possibility that various closing conditions for the transaction may not be satisfied or waived, including that a governmental entity may prohibit, delay or refuse to grant approval for the consummation of the transaction; the effects of disruption from the transaction making it more difficult to maintain relationships with employees, licensees, other business partners or governmental entities; other business effects, including the effects of industry, economic or political conditions outside of the Companys control; transaction costs; actual or contingent liabilities; and other risks and uncertainties discussed in documents filed with the SEC by the Company, as well as the tender offer documents to be filed by Purchaser and the Solicitation/Recommendation Statement to be filed by the Company. The Company does not undertake any obligation to update any forward-looking statements as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise, except as expressly required by law.

Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements All statements regarding the proposed bid to acquire Bausch & Lomb Incorporated (B&L), including the expected impacts of combining AMO with B&L, anticipated scale and scope, combined product portfolios, efficiencies and productivity improvements, cost synergies, integration plans, regulatory review, expected cost savings, financing sources, divesture strategies, leverage and accretion, and forecasts of financial information and any other statements that refer to AMOs plans or estimated future results, are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements are based on managements current expectations and beliefs and are subject to a number of factors and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements contained in the exhibit include statements about future financial and operating results and the potential transaction. These statements are not guarantees of future performance, involve certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict, and are based upon assumptions as to future events that may not prove accurate. Therefore, actual outcomes and results may differ materially from what is expressed therein. For example, AMO may decide not to pursue the transaction. In addition, if an agreement is reached with B&L, and the appropriate shareholder and regulatory approvals are not received, or either of the companies fails to satisfy other conditions to closing, the transaction will not be consummated. In any forward-looking statement in which AMO expresses an expectation or belief as to future results, such expectation or belief is expressed in good faith and believed to have a reasonable basis, but there can be no assurance that the statement or expectation or belief will result or be achieved or accomplished. The following factors, among others, could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements: risks associated with uncertainty as to whether the transaction will be completed and financed on acceptable terms, successfully integrating AMO and B&L, the failure to realize the synergies and other perceived advantages resulting from the transaction, costs and potential litigation associated with the transaction, the failure to obtain the approvals of shareholders, the inability to obtain, or meet conditions imposed for, applicable regulatory requirements relating to the transaction, the failure of either party to meet the closing conditions set forth in the definitive agreement, the ability to retain key personnel both before and after the transaction, each companys ability to successfully execute its business strategies, unforeseen impacts of the recalls of eye care solutions, the extent and timing of regulatory approvals, and the extent and timing of market acceptance of new products or product indications, manufacturing, litigation, the procurement, maintenance, enforcement and defense of patents and proprietary rights, competitive conditions in the industry, business cycles affecting the markets in which any products may be sold, fluctuations in foreign exchange rates and interest rates, and economic conditions generally or in various geographic areas, including those set forth in AMOs Annual Report on Form 10-K and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, especially in the Risk Factors sections and other SEC filings. AMO is under no obligation to (and expressly disclaims any such obligation to) update or alter its forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise.
