By its very nature, any investment in financial instruments carries substantial risks. Investors are invited to carefully consider the risks, uncertainties

and all other relevant information contained before deciding to invest. These risks, if they actually occur, could adversely impact WDP's business,

results of operations, financial conditions and prospects and thereby the value of the shares and the dividend, and consequently, create a loss to

This presentation contains forward-looking information, forecasts and estimates prepared by WDP relating to the expected future performance of

WDP and the market in which WDP operates. By their very nature, forward-looking statements involve inherent risks and uncertainties, both general

and specific, and risks exist that the forecasts, estimates and other forward-looking statements will not be achieved. Investors should be aware that a

number of important factors could cause actual results to differ materially from the plans, objectives, expectations, estimates and intentions

expressed in such forward-looking statements. Such declarations, forecasts and estimates are based on various hypotheses and assessments of

known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which seemed sound at the time they were made, but which may or may not prove to be

accurate. Some events are difficult to predict and can depend on factors on which WDP has no control.

This uncertainty is further increased due to financial, operational and regulatory risks and risks related to the economic outlook, which reduces the

predictability of any declaration, forecast or estimate made by WDP. Consequently, the reality of the earnings, financial situation, performance or

achievements of WDP may prove substantially different from the guidance regarding the future earnings, financial situation, performance or

achievements set out or suggested in such declarations, forecasts or estimates. Given these uncertainties, investors are advised not to give undue

weight to these forward-looking statements. Additionally, the forecasts and estimates only apply on the date of drafting this presentation and WDP is

not obliged to update these forecasts or estimates to reflect any changes in its expectations in this regard or any change in the events, conditions or

circumstances on which such forecasts or estimates are based on. WDP makes no representation, warranty or prediction that the results anticipated
