9. INVESTOR INFORMATION. Investor relations
materials on this web site are provided for convenience
only, and speak only as of their original date or the date
specified therein. Available information may change at
any time and may not be reflected on this web site. HFE

10. FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS. The statements
contained in this site and other materials accessible through
these pages that are not historical in nature are forward-
looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties.
Although management of HFE believes that its expectations
are based upon reasonable assumptions within the bounds
of its knowledge of HFE's business, there can be no assurance
that the Company's financial goals will be realized. Numerous
factors may affect the Company's actual results and may
cause results to differ materially from those expressed
in forward-looking statements made by or on behalf of the
Company. Factors that could cause actual results to differ
materially include fluctuations in advertising revenue
with general economic cycles; management's ability to identify,
finance, complete and integrate acquisitions; the performance
of Internet/Broadband trade shows and conferences; the
seasonality of revenue from publishing and trade shows
and conferences; the success of new products; increases
in paper and postage cost; the infringement or invalidation
of HFE's intellectual property rights; and the factors
listed from time to time in HFE's reports filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission. HFE does not undertake
any obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking
statements in this site whether as a result of new information,
future events or otherwise.

be construed in accordance with the laws of the State of
Indiana, and the parties irrevocably consent to bring any
action to enforce this Agreement in the federal or state
courts located in Kosciusko County in the State of Indiana.
This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between
the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof,
and supersedes all previous written or oral agreements
between the parties with respect to such subject matter.
All provisions hereof shall survive any termination of
this Agreement as well as any other revisions which by
their terms or sense are intended to survive. |
