Cautionary Language Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This Site may contain statements, estimates or projections that constitute "forward-looking statements" as defined under U.S. federal securities laws. Generally, the words "believe", "expect", "intend", "estimate", "anticipate", "project", "will" and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements, which generally are not historical in nature. Forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from Epicor’s historical experience and our present expectations or projections. These risks include, but are not limited to, Epicor’s ability to rapidly develop and introduce new products; reliance on third-party products; reliance on emerging technologies and markets; the timely availability and market acceptance of new products and upgrades; the impact of competitive products and pricing; and the discovery of undetected software errors; and other risks discussed in our Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), including our Annual Report on Form 10-K, which filings are available from the SEC. You should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date they are made. Epicor undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements.

DMCA and Claims of Copyright Infringement

If you believe in good faith that someone has wrongly filed a notice of copyright infringement against you, the DMCA permits you to send Epicor a counter-notice. Notices and counter-notices must meet the then-current statutory requirements imposed by the DMCA. See http://www.copyright.gov/ for details. Notices and counter-notices should be sent to:

Epicor Software Corporation
