Forward-looking Statements
Statements in Exhibits 99.1 and 99.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K may be "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Words such as "anticipate", "believe", "estimate", "expect", "intend", and similar expressions, as they relate to Terra Tech Corp. (the "Company", "we", "our", or "us") or its management, identify forward-looking statements. These statements are based on current expectations, estimates, and projections about our business based, in part, on assumptions made by management. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve risks, uncertainties, and assumptions that are difficult to predict. Therefore, actual outcomes and results may, and probably will, differ materially from what is expressed or forecasted in such forward-looking statements due to numerous factors, including those described above and those risks discussed from time to time in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. In addition, such statements could be affected by risks and uncertainties related to : (i) our ability to integrate Black Oak Gallery, a California corporation ("Black Oak") into our operations, (ii) the product demand, market, and customer acceptance of our products, (iii) our ability to obtain financing to expand our operations, (iv) our ability to attract qualified sales representatives, (v) competition, pricing and development difficulties, (vi) our ability to conduct the business of IVXX, Inc., the contemplated businesses of MediFarm, LLC, MediFarm I, LLC, and MediFarm II, LLC, and, if and when the merger of Black Oak closes, the business of Black Oak if there are changes in laws, regulations, or government policies related to cannabis, (vii) our ability to conduct operations if disease, insects, or mites affect Edible Garden Corp.'s produce, herbs, and floral products, and (viii) general industry and market conditions and growth rates and general economic conditions. Any forward-looking statements speak only as of the date on which they are made, and we do not undertake any obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K.
