 Forward-Looking Statements
 This report, and the information incorporated by reference in it, include forward-looking
statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and
Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act). Our
forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding our expectations,
hopes, beliefs, intentions or strategies regarding the future. In addition, any statements that
refer to projections, forecasts or other characterizations of future events or circumstances,
including any underlying assumptions, are forward-looking statements. The words anticipates,
believe, continue, could, estimate, expect, intend, may, might, plan, possible,
potential, predict, project, should, would and similar expressions may identify
forward-looking statements, but the absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not
forward-looking. Forward-looking statements in this report may include, for example, statements
about our:
 
    
    ability to complete a combination with one or more target businesses;
    
    success in retaining or recruiting, or changes required in, our officers or directors
following a business combination;
    
    potential inability to obtain additional financing to complete a business combination;
    
    limited pool of prospective target businesses;
    
    potential change in control if we acquire one or more target businesses for stock;
    
    public securities limited liquidity and trading;
    
    inability to have our securities listed on the American Stock Exchange following a
business combination or the delisting of our securities from the American Stock Exchange;
    
    use of proceeds not in trust or available to us from interest income on the trust
account balance; or
    
    financial performance.
 The forward-looking statements contained or incorporated by reference in this report are based
on our current expectations and beliefs concerning future developments and their potential effects
on us and speak only as of the date of such statement. There can be no assurance that future
developments affecting us will be those that we have anticipated. These forward-looking statements
involve a number of risks, uncertainties (some of which are beyond our control) or other
assumptions that may cause actual results or performance to be materially different from those
expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties include,
but are not limited to, those factors described in Part II  Other Information, Item 1A. Risk
Factors and elsewhere in this report and in our annual report on Form 10-K for the Year ended
December 31. 2007, and those described in our future reports filed with the Securities Exchange
Commission. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should any of our
assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary in material respects from those projected in
these forward-looking statements. We undertake no obligation to update or revise any
forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise,
except as may be required under applicable securities laws.
 References in this report to we, us or our company refer to Liberty Acquisition Holdings
Corp. References to our founders refer, collectively, to our sponsors and each of our
independent directors. References to public stockholders refer to purchasers of our securities
in our initial public offering and subsequent purchasers in the secondary market. To the extent
our founders purchased common stock in our initial public offering or thereafter in the open market
they would be public stockholders for liquidation and dissolution purposes, but will vote all
such shares in favor of our initial business combination and therefore would not be eligible to
seek redemption in connection with a vote on a business combination.
