All forward looking statements are based on our beliefs and assumptions based on information available at the time the assumption was made. These statements are not guarantees of our future performance and are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ materially from those contemplated by the forward looking statements. Some of the factors that could cause such differences include expectations related to the demand for electricity in both the short-term and long term, timing and completion of projects under development including uprates and upgrades, ability to acquire assets which are accretive, ability to source materials and parts in a timely manner, cost of fuels to produce electricity, legislative or regulatory developments, competition, global capital markets activity, changes in currency exchange and interest rates, inflation levels, unanticipated accounting issues with respect to our financial statements, plant availability, and general economic conditions in geographic areas where TransAlta Corporation operates. Given these uncertainties, the reader should not place undue reliance on this forward looking information, which is given as of this date. The material assumptions in making these forward looking statements are disclosed in our 2010 Annual Report to shareholders and other disclosure documents filed with securities regulators.
