This News Release contains forward-looking statements which are subject to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Act of 1995. Due to the fact that Earthworks faces competition from other creators, producers, sellers, marketers, distributors and licensors, and due to the uncertainty of the public's response to Earthwork's children's and family entertainment properties, actual results may differ materially from such forward-looking statements.
