Various statements to be made during the conference call are forward-looking statements under the securities laws, including, but not limited to, statements regarding Aldeyras plans for its product candidates.

Such forward- looking statements are based upon current expectations that involve risks, changes in circumstances, assumptions and uncertainties.
Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those reflected in Aldeyras forward-looking statements include, among others, the Institutional Review Boards acceptance of the protocol for Aldeyras planned Phase II clinical trial of NS2 in noninfectious anterior uveitis, the timing of enrollment and completion of Aldeyras clinical trials, the timing and success of preclinical studies and clinical trials conducted by Aldeyra and its development partners; the ability to obtain and maintain regulatory approval of Aldeyras product candidates, and the labeling for any approved products; the scope, progress, expansion, and costs of developing and commercializing Aldeyras product candidates; the size and growth of the potential markets for Aldeyras product candidates and the ability to serve those markets; Aldeyras expectations regarding Aldeyras expenses and revenue, the sufficiency of Aldeyras cash resources and needs for additional financing; Aldeyras ability to attract or retain key personnel; and other factors that are described in the Risk Factors and Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations sections of Aldeyras Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2014 which is on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and available on the SECs website at www.sec.gov. Additional information will also be set forth in those sections of Aldeyras Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014, which will be filed with the SEC in the first quarter of 2015.
In addition to the risks described above and in Aldeyras other filings with the SEC, other unknown or unpredictable factors also could affect Aldeyras results. No forward-looking statements can be guaranteed and actual results may differ materially from such statements. The information conveyed on the conference call is provided only as of the date of the call, and Aldeyra undertakes no obligation to update any forward-looking statements presented on the call on account of new information, future events, or otherwise, except as required by law.
