Disclaimer:

The Service includes various reports, analyses, opinions, charts and other information regarding investments, economic developments and general business conditions (collectively, the "Reports").

The Reports are not intended to and do not provide individualized advice or recommendations for any particular individual's investment portfolio and nothing contained therein should be construed as the provision of such advice. Harvestor is not an investment advisor, and as such, does not provide investment advice. The Reports are presented for general information purposes only, and the Reports do not take into account any particular individual's financial situation or investment objectives. You should not contact any of the authors or creators of the Reports (the "Authors"), or any other individual associated with the Service, to discuss any of your personal investments, as no such individual is authorized to engage in such a discussion.

You should make an individual decision whether to follow any recommendation contained in the Reports. Such a decision should be based upon your own evaluation of all available information, including your personal financial situation and investment objectives, and other important information pertaining to the assets in which you might invest and all other relevant considerations. These considerations may include, but should not be limited to, any recommendations contained in the Reports. You solely are responsible for any action that you take based on information contained in the Reports.

Investing involves substantial risk. Harvestor makes no guarantee or other promise as to any results that may be obtained from your use of information contained in the Reports. Past performance of investments should not be considered indicative of future performance. If you decide to invest based on any recommendations contained in the Reports, you should know that you may sustain a total loss of the value of your investment and of all transaction costs. You should, therefore, carefully consider whether such trading is suitable for you in light of your financial condition. The Reports cannot disclose all of the risks involved in making investments. You should, therefore, carefully and independently consider the risks in making any investment, consulting with your personal financial advisor to the extent you believe necessary.

The information provided in the Reports is obtained from sources which the Authors and Harvestor generally believe to be reliable. However, the Authors and Harvestor have not independently verified or otherwise investigated all such sources of information. Harvestor does not represent, warrant or guarantee, either explicitly or implicitly, the accuracy or completeness of any information provided in the Reports. Harvestor is not responsible for any errors or omissions in any Report, regardless of whether they occurred due to the fault of Harvestor.

The Reports' commentary, analysis, opinions, advice and recommendations represent the personal and subjective views and opinions of the applicable Authors, which are subject to change at any time without notice. Harvestor is under no obligation to update or correct any Reports previously provided to you. The views and opinions of the Authors are their personal opinions and do not reflect the opinions of Harvestor or its affiliates, management, staff, directors and officers.

Harvestor and Harvestor's affiliates, management, directors, officers and employees will not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, special, punitive or exemplary damages, whether or not foreseeable, if any information, commentary, analysis, opinions, advice and/or recommendations in the Reports proves to be inaccurate, incomplete or unreliable or in the event that you experience investment losses or damages arising out of any decision made by you or action taking by you in at least partial reliance on the information, commentary, analysis, opinions, advice and/or recommendations contained in the Reports, whether such investment losses or damages are caused in whole or in part by the negligence of any party associated or affiliated with Harvestor or Harvestor's affiliates, management, directors, officers and employees.

Harvestor and Harvestor's affiliates, management, directors, officers and employees will not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, special, punitive or exemplary damages, whether or not foreseeable, for (i) any general or specific decline in the market value of any assets; (ii) your inability to use or any delay in accessing the Service or any other sources of materials provided by the Service; (iii) any absence of material on the Service; (iv) the Service's failure to deliver or delay in delivering any materials; (v) any kind of error by the Service in transmission of materials; or (vi) your use of any research to invest in any way which may be deemed unsuitable in accordance with certain industry standards. You acknowledge that, without limitation, the above-enumerated conditions cannot be the probable cause of any breach of the Terms by Harvestor.

Some investment returns discussed by the Service are based on back testing or historical regression. As such, they are hypothetical results. Back tested and historical regression performance results have many inherent limitations, some of which are described below. No representation is being made that any investment (bullion product, precious metal, or certified coin) will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to those shown. In fact, there are frequently sharp differences between back tested or historical regression investment performance results and the actual results subsequently achieved by any investment. Hypothetical investing activities do not involve financial risk, and no hypothetical investment track record can completely account for the impact of financial risk in the actual purchase of bullion, precious metals, or certified coins. For example, the ability to withstand losses or to stick to a particular investment strategy in spite of trading losses are material points which can adversely affect actual investment results. There are numerous other factors related to markets in general or to the implementation of any specific investment strategy which cannot be fully accounted for in the preparation of hypothetical investment performance results and all of which can adversely affect actual investment results.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENT AND AGREEMENT

Not withstanding any other agreement or other communications between Harvestor and you to the contrary, receipt or use of any material provided by Harvestor, at any time and through any means, whether directly or indirectly, represents acknowledgement and agreement by you that such materials shall be subject to all disclaimers contained herein.
