risks and uncertainties. The risks and uncertainties that could
cause actual results to differ materially include, among others,
our ability to make good decisions about the deployment of capital,
the fact that our partner companies may vary from period to period,
our substantial capital requirements and absence of liquidity from

our publicly traded partner company holdings, competition, our
inability to obtain maximum value for our partner company holdings,
our ability to attract and retain qualified employees, market
valuations in sectors in which our partner companies operate, our
inability to control our partner companies, our need to manage our
assets to avoid registration under the Investment Company Act of
1940, and risks associated with our partner companies, including
the fact that most of our partner companies have a limited history
and a history of operating losses, face intense competition and may
never be profitable, the effect of economic conditions in the
business sectors in which Safeguard's partner companies operate,
and other uncertainties described in our filings with the
