The proposed transaction has not closed, and the following factors, among others, could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements: the possibility that disruption from the transaction may adversely affect ZipRealty’s relationships with its customers, business partners, employees or independent sales associates; the conditions to the completion of the transaction may not be satisfied in a timely manner or at all; and the other factors described in ZipRealty’s most recent Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Unless required by law, ZipRealty undertakes no obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
