- DISCLAIMER
Stock Aware, LLC ("SA" or "we" or "us") is not registered as an
investment adviser or registered broker/dealer. SA relies upon the
"publishers' exclusion" from the definition of investment adviser
under Section 202(a)(11) of the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 and
corresponding state securities laws. As such, SA does not offer or
provide personalized advice. We publish information about companies
in which we believe our readers may be interested and this
information reflects our sincere opinions.
- The information that we provide or that is derived from our
website is not intended to be, and should not be construed in any
manner whatsoever as, personalized advice. Also, our website and the
information provided by us should not be construed by any subscriber
or prospective subscriber as SA's solicitation to effect, or attempt
to effect, any transaction in a security. Neither the information,
nor any opinion expressed, constitutes a recommendation to purchase
or sell a security, or to provide investment advice.
Information and opinions
in our Publications are presented solely for information purposes,
and are not intended, nor should they be construed, as investment
advice.
- The information
provided within our website and newsletters is not intended to be a
complete study of any company mentioned and has not taken into
consideration all available data. All information provided is based
entirely on publicly available information and is provided in
good-faith. We generally do not verify or conduct any due diligence
on any of the information obtained nor do we guarantee it. All

should not be a substitute for advice from an investment
professional. We encourage you to obtain personal advice from your
professional investment advisor and to make independent
investigations before acting on the information that you obtain from
SA or derive from our website. Only you can determine what level of
risk is appropriate for you.

- We encourage you to
invest carefully and read all of the investor information available
at the websites of the United States Securities and Exchange
Commission (www.sec.gov) and the
National Association of Securities Dealers (www.nasd.com)
and your state regulators. Each of these agencies has published on
their websites and can further provide you with information about
how to invest carefully and the risks associated with making any
investment. In addition, almost every publicly traded company in the
United States is required to file financial statements and corporate
disclosures with the United States Securities and Exchange
Commission. Before investing an any company, you should read all of
those filings, which can be found on the internet at
www.sec.gov.
- While we will never
recommend that you invest in a company traded on the Pink Sheets
because of the complete lack of transparency, rules and regulations,
you can find some additional information about companies traded
there at www.pinksheets.com.
- Most of the information on our website or that we otherwise
provide is derived directly from information published by the
companies on which we report and/or from other sources we believe
are reliable, without our independent verification. Therefore, we
cannot assure you that the information is accurate or complete. The
information may contain discussions of, or provide access to,
certain positions and recommendations as of a specific date. Due to
various factors, including, but not limited to, changing market
conditions, such discussions and positions/recommendations may no
longer be reflective of current discussions and
positions/recommendations. We do not in any way warrant or guarantee
the success of or endorse any action which you take in reliance on
the information that we provide or that is derived from our website.

about the accuracy or completeness of the information contained on
or derived from SA's website or otherwise provided by SA. Any links
provided to other websites are offered as a matter of convenience

- The information
provided in our Publications is not intended for distribution to, or
use by, any person or entity in any jurisdiction or country where
such distribution or use would be contrary to any law or regulation,
or which would subject us to any registration or other requirement
within such jurisdiction or country.
- PERFORMANCE FIGURES
Performance figures are based on actual recommendations made by SA.
Due to the time critical nature of stock, options and futures
trading, brokerage fees, and the activity of other subscribers, SA
cannot guarantee that subscribers will mirror the exact performance
stated on our track records or promotions. Performance numbers shown
are based on trades subscribers could enter based on our tracking
guidelines. Past results are not necessarily indicative of future
performance. Therefore, no subscriber or potential subscriber should
assume or expect that future performance of any investment or
strategy will be profitable or equal historical or anticipated
performance levels. The information contained in SA trading services
is intended for use solely by individual subscribers and is not
offered to institutional investment organizations.
Making an investment in any security is very risky and you could
lose part or all of your investment. Past performance does not
guarantee future results. Investors should not rely on any of the
information we provide. Anyone interested in investing in any of the
companies mentioned in our newsletters or on our website, should
conduct their own research and due diligence. Rely solely on your
own legal, accounting, tax, registered investment advisor or
registered stockbroker before making any investment decision. We are
not liable for any investment decisions you make.

SA. In all other cases, SA's liability to a subscriber, whether in
contract, tort, negligence, or otherwise, shall be limited in the

exemplary or indirect damages resulting directly or indirectly from

- FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
With the exception of
historical information, the opinions in our newsletters or website
may contain forward-looking statements that involve a number of
risks and uncertainties. The actual future results could differ
significantly from what we publish. In some cases, you can identify
forward-looking statements by terminology such as "may," "will,"
"should," "expect," "plan," "anticipate," "believe," "estimate,"
"predict," "potential" or "continue," the negative of such terms, or
other comparable terminology. These statements are only predictions.
Although at the time we publish any such opinion, we believe that
the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are
reasonable, such statements should not be regarded as a
representation that such forward-looking statements will be
achieved. In light of the foregoing, readers are cautioned not to
place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements. For further
risk factors associated with any company mentioned, review their
filings.
