Forward-Looking Statements
This press release includes “forward-looking statements” within
the meaning of the “safe harbor” provisions of the Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Mana Capital’s and
Cardio’s actual results may differ from their expectations,
estimates and projections and consequently, you should not rely on
these forward-looking statements as predictions of future events.
Words such as “expect,” “estimate,” “project,” “budget,”
“forecast,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” “may,” “will,” “could,”
“should,” “believes,” “predicts,” “potential,” “continue,” and
similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking

limitation, Mana Capital’s and Cardio’s expectations with respect

Business Combination, the satisfaction of the closing conditions to
the Business Combination and the timing of the completion of the
Business Combination. These forward-looking statements involve
significant risks and uncertainties that could cause the actual
results to differ materially from the expected results. Most of
these factors are outside Mana Capital’s and Cardio’s control and
are difficult to predict. All forward-looking statements are based
upon estimates, forecasts and assumptions that, while considered
reasonable by Mana Capital and its management, and Cardio and its
management, as the case may be, are inherently uncertain and many
factors may cause the actual results to differ materially from
current expectations which include, but are not limited to: the
risks and uncertainties set forth in the sections entitled “Risk
Factors” and “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements”

Capital from time to time with the SEC. These filings identify and
address other important risks and uncertainties that could cause
actual events and results to differ materially from those contained
in the forward-looking statements. Nothing in this press release
should be regarded as a representation by any person that the
forward-looking statements set forth herein will be achieved or
that any of the contemplated results of such forward looking
statements will be achieved. You should not place undue reliance on
forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date they
are made. Mana Capital does not undertake or accept any obligation
or undertaking to release publicly any updates or revisions to any
forward-looking statements to reflect any change in its
expectations or any change in events, conditions or circumstances
on which any such statement is based, except as otherwise required
by law.
