(1) EBITDA

EBITDA consists of net loss before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization.

(2) Adjusted EBITDA

To supplement our financial information presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, or U.S. GAAP, we use Adjusted EBITDA, a non-U.S. GAAP financial measure. We believe that the presentation of this financial measure enhances an investor’s understanding of our financial performance. We further believe that this financial measure is a useful financial metric to assess our operating performance from period-to-period by excluding certain items that we believe are not representative of our core business. We use certain financial measures for business planning purposes and in measuring our performance relative to that of our competitors. Accordingly, we utilize Adjusted EBITDA as the primary measure of our performance.

Adjusted EBITDA consists of net loss before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, stock-based compensation, amortization of warrants and loss on extinguishment of debt and acquisition related costs related to mergers and acquisitions. We believe that making such adjustment provides investors meaningful information to understand our results of operations and the ability to analyze financial and business trends on a period-to-period basis.

We believe this financial measure is commonly used by investors to evaluate our performance. However, our use of the term Adjusted EBITDA may vary from that of others in our industry. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to net loss before taxes, net loss, loss per share or any other performance measures derived in accordance with U.S. GAAP as measures of performance.

Adjusted EBITDA has an important limitation as an analytical tool and you should not consider it in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under U.S. GAAP. Some of these limitations are:

Adjusted EBITDA:

· does not reflect the significant interest expense on our debt; and

· does not reflect the significant non cash stock compensation expense which should be viewed as a component of recurring operating costs; and

· does not reflect the significant non-recurring charge associated with the amortization of warrants and loss on extinguishment of debt; and

· does not reflect the significant acquisition related costs related to mergers and acquisitions; and

· eliminates the impact of income taxes on our results of operations; and

· although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future, and Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect any expenditures for such replacements; and

· other companies in our industry may calculate Adjusted EBITDA differently than we do, limiting the usefulness of Adjusted EBITDA as comparative measures.

We compensate for these limitations by using Adjusted EBITDA along with other comparative tools, together with U.S. GAAP measurements, to assist in the evaluation of operating performance. Such U.S. GAAP measurements include gross profit, net loss, net loss per share and other performance measures.

In evaluating these financial measures, you should be aware that in the future we may incur expenses similar to those eliminated in this presentation. Our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or nonrecurring items.
