This document may contain certain forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements relate to expectations, beliefs, projections, future plans and strategies, anticipated events or trends and similar expressions concerning matters that are not historical facts.

The forward-looking statements are based on Neuberger Berman's beliefs, assumptions, and expectations of future performance and market developments, taking into account all information currently available. These beliefs, assumptions, and expectations can change as a result of many possible events or factors, not all of which are known or are within Neuberger Berman's control. If a change occurs, the NBGFRIF's business, financial condition, liquidity, and results of operations may vary materially from those expressed in forward-looking statements. Some of the factors that could cause actual results to vary from those expressed in forward-looking statements, include, but are not limited to: the factors described in this document; the rate at which NBGFRIF deploys its capital in investments and achieves expected rates of return; NBGFRIF, NBEL and NBFI's ability to execute NBGFRIF's investment strategy, including through the identification of a sufficient number of appropriate investments; the continuation of NBEL and NBFI as investment manager and subinvestment manager, respectively, of NBGFRIF's investments, the continued affiliation with Neuberger Berman of its key investment professionals; NBGFRIF's financial condition and liquidity; changes in the values of or returns on investments that the Company makes; changes in financial markets, interest rates or industry, general economic or political conditions; and the general volatility of the capital markets and the market price of NBGFRIF's shares.

 

By their nature, forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties because they relate to events, and depend on circumstances that may or may not occur in the future. Forward- looking statements are not guarantees of future performance. Any forward-looking statements are only made as at the date of this document, and Neuberger Berman neither intends nor assumes any obligation to update forward-looking statements set forth in this document whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise, except as required by law or other applicable regulation. In light of these risks, uncertainties, and assumptions, the events described by any such forward-looking statements might not occur. Neuberger Berman qualifies any and all of their forward-looking statements by these cautionary factors. Please keep this cautionary note in mind while reading this document.
