Also, whenever SEVN uses words such as “believe,” “expect,”
“anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” “estimate,” “will,” “may” and

are based upon SEVN’s present intent, beliefs or expectations, but
forward-looking statements are not guaranteed to occur and may not
occur. Actual results may differ materially from those contained in
or implied by SEVN’s forward-looking statements as a result of
various factors. Forward-looking statements involve known and
unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors, some of which are
beyond SEVN’s control. For example:
- This press release references recent loans closed and future
plans to scale and diversify SEVN, which may imply that SEVN will
close additional loans and that its business will continue to
improve as a result. However, SEVN’s business and ability to
execute loans and realize its investment objective are subject to
various risks, including the competitive nature of the industry in
which it operates, as well as other factors, many of which are
outside its control, such as the current COVID-19 pandemic. These
risks and other factors may prevent SEVN from successfully closing
additional loans, executing its new business and realizing its
investment objective. Further, once SEVN invests or commits its
remaining capital, its ability to continue to grow and fund loans
will be subject to its ability to obtain additional cost-effective
capital or its redeploying proceeds from repayments of its loan
investments.
