information currently available, investors are cautioned against placing undue reliance on this information since actual results may vary from the forward-looking information. Certain assumptions made in preparing the forward-looking statements include that: no unforeseen event will occur that would prevent the Company from repaying all of the Notes on June 30, 2023. Forward-looking information assumptions are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond Theratechnologies’ control that could cause actual results to differ materially from those that are disclosed in or implied by such forward-looking information. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, those related to or arising from: non-compliance by the Company with the terms and conditions of the Credit Facility, including meeting revenue targets and the liquidity covenant; the occurrence of an event of default under the Credit Facility which would trigger an increase in interest rate of 300 basis points and, at the discretion of Marathon, the accelerated reimbursement of any outstanding amounts drawn under the Credit Facility. We refer current and potential investors to the “Risk Factors” section of our Annual Information Form dated February 27, 2023, available on SEDAR at www.sedar.com and on EDGAR at www.sec.gov as an exhibit to our report on Form 40-F dated February 28, 2023, under Theratechnologies’ public filings.
