General
This part of the website has been prepared solely for the purpose of providing information about the Offer.
This part of the website contains statements that are forward looking. Forward-looking statements are not based on historical facts, but rather on current expectations and projections about future events, and are therefore subject to risks and uncertainties which could cause actual results to differ materially from the future results expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. Often, but not always, forward-looking statements may be identified by the use of forward-looking words such as "plans", "expects" or "does not expect", "is expected", "is subject to", "budget", "scheduled", "estimates", "forecasts", "intends", "anticipates" or "does not anticipate", or "believes", or variations of such words and phrases or statements that certain actions, events or results "may", "could", "should", "would", "might" or "will" be taken, occur or be achieved. Such statements are qualified in their entirety by the inherent risks and uncertainties surrounding future expectations. Such forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause the actual results, performance or achievements of Lonmin, or industry results, to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Such forward-looking statements are based on numerous assumptions regarding Lonmin`s present and future business strategies and the environment in which Lonmin will operate in the future. Among the important factors that could cause Lonmin`s actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements include, among others, levels of actual production during any period, levels of demand and market prices, the ability to produce and transport products profitably, the impact of foreign currency exchange rates on market prices and operating costs, interest rates, operational problems, industry trends, labour relations, political uncertainty and economic conditions in relevant areas of the world, the actions of competitors and activities by governmental authorities such as changes in taxation or regulation. Other than in accordance with its legal or regulatory obligations (including under the UK Listing Rules and the Disclosure and Transparency Rules of the Financial Services Authority), Lonmin is not under any obligation and Lonmin expressly disclaims any intention or obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
Citigroup Global Markets Limited and Greenhill & Co. International LLP are acting for Lonmin and no one else in connection with the matters described in these web pages, and will not be responsible to anyone other than Lonmin for providing the protections afforded to their respective clients, or for providing advice in relation to the Offer or any matters described in these web pages.
