Forward-Looking Statements
This
communication includes certain statements that may constitute forward-looking statements for purposes of the federal securities laws. Forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements that refer to projections,
forecasts or other characterizations of future events or circumstances, including any underlying assumptions. The words anticipate, believe, continue, could, estimate, expect,
intends, may, might, plan, possible, potential, predict, project, should, would and similar expressions may identify
forward-looking statements, but the absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking. Forward-looking statements may include, for example, statements about: KLREs ability to consummate the Business Combination and
related private placement; the benefits of the Business Combination; the future financial performance of KLRE following the Business Combination; changes in Temas reserves and future operating results; and expansion plans and opportunities.
These forward-looking statements are based on information available as of the date of this Current Report on Form
8-K,
and current expectations, forecasts and assumptions, and involve a number of judgments,
risks and uncertainties. Accordingly, forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as representing KLREs views as of any subsequent date, and KLRE does not undertake any obligation to update forward-looking statements to reflect events
or circumstances after the date they were made, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as may be required under applicable securities laws. You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking
statements. As a result of a number of known and unknown risks and uncertainties, KLREs actual results or performance may be materially different from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. Some factors that could
cause actual results to differ include: (i) the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstances that could delay the Business Combination or the private placement or give rise to the termination of the Business Combination Agreement;
(ii) the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against KLRE following announcement of the Business Combination and transactions contemplated thereby; (iii) the inability to complete the Business Combination due to the
failure to obtain approval of the stockholders of KLRE, or other conditions to closing in the Business Combination Agreement; (iv) the risk that the Business Combination disrupts current plans and operations of KLRE or Tema as a result of
the announcement and consummation of the transactions described herein; (v) KLREs ability to recognize the anticipated benefits of the Business Combination, which may be affected by, among other things, competition and the ability of KLRE
to grow and manage growth profitably following the Business Combination; (vi) costs related to the Business Combination; (vii) changes in applicable laws or regulations; (viii) the possibility that KLRE or Tema may be adversely
affected by other economic, business, and/or competitive factors, including, but not limited to, future trends in energy markets and commodity prices; and (ix) other risks and uncertainties described herein, as well as those risks and
uncertainties discussed from time to time in other reports and other public filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (
SEC
) by KLRE.
