	2. Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies
	Basis of Presentation
	The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and do not include all the information and footnotes required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring items) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and results of operations. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2014. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2013 and the footnotes thereto included in the Company’s Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 14, 2014.
	Reclassification
	Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to current classifications. Accrued dividends on mandatorily redeemable preferred stock has been reclassified to adjustments to reconcile net loss to net cash flows used in operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2013 from changes in operating assets and liabilities with no impact on net cash flows used in operating activities.
	Accounting and Disclosure Changes
	Changes to U.S. GAAP are established by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) in the form of accounting standards updates (“ASUs”) to the FASB’s Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”). The Company considers the applicability and impact of all ASUs.
	In March 2013, the FASB issued an ASU that indicates when the cumulative translation adjustment (“CTA”) related to an entity’s investment in a foreign entity should be released to earnings. The CTA should be released when an entity sells a foreign subsidiary or a group of net assets within a foreign entity and the sale represents the substantially complete liquidation of the investment in a foreign entity. The CTA should also be released when an entity no longer has a controlling financial interest in an investment in a foreign entity. This guidance, which is effective for the Company in fiscal 2014 on a prospective basis, does not have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.
	In July 2013, the FASB issued an ASU which states that entities should present the unrecognized tax benefit as a reduction of the deferred tax asset for a net operating loss (“NOL”) or similar tax loss or tax credit carry-forward rather than as a liability when the uncertain tax position would reduce the NOL or other carry-forward under the tax law. This guidance, which is effective for the Company in fiscal 2014 on a prospective basis, does not have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.
	In September 2013, the Internal Revenue Service released final tangible property regulations under the Internal Revenue Code regarding the deduction and capitalization of expenditures related to tangible property as well as dispositions of tangible property. These regulations will be effective for the Company’s fiscal year ending December 31, 2015. Taxpayers may elect to apply them to tax years beginning on or after January 1, 2012. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that these regulations will have on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
	In May 2014, the FASB issued an ASU related to revenue recognition which amends the former revenue recognition guidance. This new guidance provides a single, comprehensive revenue recognition model for all contracts with customers. This guidance contains principles that an entity will apply to determine the measurement of revenue and timing of when revenue is recognized. The entity will recognize revenue to reflect the transfer of goods or services to customers at an amount that the entity expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. This guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2016, and early adoption is not permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Inventory	'
	3. Inventory
	Inventory, which is stated at the lower of cost or market using principally the weighted average cost method, was comprised of the following components as of:
	(in millions of dollars)		June 30, 2014			December 31, 2013
	Raw materials		$	9		$	8.7
	Work-in-progress			16.7			15.5
	Finished goods			20.2			20.8
	Total		$	45.9		$	45
	Effective in the third quarter of 2013, the Company changed its method of accounting for domestic inventories from the last-in, first-out (“LIFO”) method to the weighted average cost method. Management believes the weighted average cost method is preferable in that it:
		•		conforms all of the Company’s inventories to principally a single costing method across the Company’s operating and reporting segments for both financial reporting and income tax purposes;
		•		provides a more meaningful presentation of financial position and better reflects the current value of inventories on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet;
		•		simplifies the valuation of inventories and cost of goods sold and reduces the risk of inaccuracy associated with the manual LIFO calculations at year-end; and
		•		conforms to the methodology widely utilized and recognized in the industry, thus allowing for better comparisons among the Company’s competitors.
	In accordance with the prescribed guidance for accounting changes, all prior periods presented have been retrospectively adjusted to apply the new method of accounting.
	Our condensed consolidated statement of operations for the periods shown was adjusted as follows:
			For the Three Months Ended June 30, 2013						For the Six Months Ended June 30, 2013
	(in millions of dollars)		As Originally Reported			As Recast			As Originally Reported			As Recast
	Costs of goods sold		$	(109.2	)	$	(109.2	)	$	(213.9	)	$	(213.1	)
	Operating income		$	16.6		$	16.6		$	35.1		$	35.9
	Net income (loss)		$	0.4		$	0.4		$	(0.8	)	$	—
	Our condensed consolidated statement of cash flows for the periods shown was adjusted as follows:
			For the Six Months Ended June 30, 2013
	(in millions of dollars)		As Originally Reported			As Recast
	Net loss		$	(0.8	)	$	—
	Inventory		$	1		$	0.2
	The change in inventory accounting from LIFO to the weighted average cost method had no effect on income tax expense for the three or six months ended June 30, 2013 due to the Company’s net operating loss carry-forward and related valuation allowances for the periods.

	6. Derivatives
	The use of derivative financial instruments exposes the Company to market risk related to foreign currency exchange rates. The Company uses derivative instruments to hedge various foreign exchange exposures, including the following: (i) variability in foreign currency-denominated cash flows, such as receivables denominated in a currency other than the entity’s functional currency and (ii) currency risk associated with foreign currency-denominated operating assets and liabilities. The term of foreign exchange contracts as of June 30, 2014 ranged from one to 31 months.
	The Company reports its derivative positions on the condensed consolidated balance sheets on a gross basis and does not net asset and liability derivative positions with the same counterparty. The Company monitors its positions with, and the credit quality of, the financial institutions that are parties to its financial transactions. See Note 10 for further information.

	-3	The Company has a Credit Facility which is comprised of a senior secured first-lien revolving credit facility (the “Revolver”) for $50.0 million which is available for working capital purposes, including the provision of letters of credit and a $50.0 million senior secured first-lien term loan (the “Term Loan”). Outstanding balances under the Term Loan and the Revolver bear interest at a rate equal to, at the Company’s option, either (i) the alternative base rate (“ABR”) plus the applicable margin(4) for ABR loans; or (ii) Adjusted London Interbank Offered Rate (“Adjusted LIBOR”) plus applicable margin(5) for Eurodollar loans. Principal payments on the Term Loan are due quarterly. Principal payment on the Revolver is due July 19, 2016.
	-4	The ABR is equal to the greatest of (a) the base rate in effect for such day, (b) federal funds effective rate in effect on such day plus 0.50% or (c) the Adjusted LIBOR for an interest period of one-month beginning on such day plus 100 basis points; provided that the ABR shall be deemed to be not less that 2.50% per annum. The ABR for each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 was 3.25%.
	-5	Adjusted LIBOR with respect to any borrowing comprised of Eurodollar loans (“Eurodollar Borrowing”) for any interest period is (a) an interest rate per annum (rounded upward, if necessary, to the nearest 1/100th of 1%) determined by JPMorgan Chase Bank as “Administrative Agent” under the Credit Facility to be equal to the LIBOR for such Eurodollar Borrowing in effect for such interest period divided by (b) 1 minus the Statutory Reserves (if any) for such Eurodollar Borrowing for such interest period; provided that the Adjusted LIBOR shall be deemed to be not less than 1.50% per annum. The Adjusted LIBOR for each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 was 1.50%.
	-6	The applicable margin, effective May 21, 2014, with respect to any outstanding balances under the Term Loan or Revolver is 3.50% and 4.50% for ABR and Eurodollar Borrowings, respectively, subject to changes in the total leverage ratio as calculated on and after the fifth business day after delivery to the Administrative Agent of the quarterly or annual financial statements. The applicable margin for the period August 23, 2013 through May 20, 2014 with respect to any outstanding balances under the Term Loan or Revolver was 3.25% and 4.25% for ABR and Eurodollar Borrowings, respectively. The applicable margin at June 30, 2013 with respect to any outstanding balances under the Term Loan or Revolver was 3.50% and 4.50% for ABR and Eurodollar Borrowings, respectively.
	-7	The commitment fee for the Revolver is 0.75%, effective May 21, 2014, on the average daily unused amount of the Revolver commitment subject to changes in the total leverage ratio as calculated on and after the fifth business day after delivery to the Administrative Agent of the quarterly or annual financial statements. The commitment fee for the period August 23, 2013 through May 20, 2014 for the Revolver was 0.50% on the average daily unused amount of revolving commitment. The commitment fee at June 30, 2013 for the Revolver was 0.75% on the average daily unused amount of revolving commitment.
	-8	The letter of credit participation fee to any Revolver lender with respect to its participation in the Credit Facility is a rate equal to the applicable margin used to determine the interest rate on Eurodollar Borrowings on the average daily amount of such lender’s letter of credit exposure, which is defined as the aggregate undrawn amount of all outstanding letters of credit plus aggregate principal amount of all reimbursement obligations outstanding.
	-9	The fronting fee to any issuing bank in its capacity as an issuer of letters of credit is 0.25% on the average daily amount of letter of credit exposure.
	-10	With respect to any ABR Term or Revolver loan, interest is payable on the last business day of March, June, September and December of each year. With respect to any Eurodollar Borrowing Term or Revolver loan, interest is payable on the last day of the interest period as defined in the Credit Facility. For Eurodollar Borrowings with interest periods greater than three months, interest is payable in intervals of every three months.
	-11	Accrued fees are payable in arrears on the last business day of March, June, September and December of each year.
	-12	The ERP Fonds Austria Wirtschaftsservice loan (the “ERP Loan”) was received in connection with the investment in a new aluminum die-casting facility in Austria. Interest is fixed at 0.50% from January 1, 2012 to June 30, 2015 and at 1.5% from July 1, 2015 to December 31, 2018 with interest payments due quarterly. Interest accrued from June 18, 2013 when the ERP Loan was drawn. Principal payments are due semi-annually beginning June 30, 2015. A guarantee fee of 0.30% is charged quarterly in advance on the outstanding ERP Loan balance.
	The letter of credit commitment under the Revolver is $10.0 million; however, at no time can the Company’s Revolver exposure, which is defined as the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Revolver loans plus the aggregate amount of the Company’s letter of credit exposure, which is defined as the sum of (a) the aggregate undrawn amount of all outstanding letters of credit plus (b) the aggregate principal amount of all letter of credit reimbursement obligations, exceed the total Revolver commitment of $50.0 million. As of June 30, 2014, the Company had approximately $7.1 million available under the letter of credit commitments (Note 13). In addition to the letter of credit commitment under the Credit Facility, the Company has a line of credit in China for approximately $1.6 million under which no amounts were outstanding at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013.
	Future minimum principal payments as of June 30, 2014 are as follows:
	(in millions of dollars)
	Remainder of 2014		$	3.8
	2015			17.7
	2016			14
	2017			1.5
	2018			1.4
	Thereafter			350
			$	388.4
	The weighted average interest rate for the Term Loan and Revolver was 5.86% and 5.81% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively. The interest rate for the Term Loan and Revolver was 6.0% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013.
	The Credit Facility contains covenants that, among other things, restrict the Company’s ability to incur additional indebtedness, grant liens, make investments, loans or advances, pay dividends, engage in mergers, enter into sale and leaseback transactions or engage in certain transactions with affiliates and otherwise restrict certain corporate activities. The Company does not expect these covenants to unreasonably restrict its liquidity, financial condition or access to capital resources in the foreseeable future.
	The Company amended its Credit Facility in March 2014 to allow cash dividends on the Series A Convertible Mandatorily Redeemable Preferred Stock, $0.001 par value per share, (“Series A Preferred Stock”) and the Series B Redeemable Preferred Stock, $0.001 par value per share, (“Series B Preferred Stock”), subject to maintaining a specified leverage ratio after reflecting the cash dividends paid and generating an amount determined by reference to certain cash flows of the Company as provided in the Credit Facility.
	The Company is also subject to a maximum total leverage ratio and minimum interest coverage ratio under the Credit Facility. As of June 30, 2014, the Company is in compliance with these covenants. There are no financial covenants associated with the 2019 Notes or the ERP Loan.
	2019 Notes Optional Redemption

	The Company’s income tax expense and resulting effective tax rate are based upon the respective estimated annual effective tax rates applicable for the respective periods adjusted for the effects of items required to be treated as discrete to the period, including adjustments to write down deferred tax assets determined not to be realizable due to changes in tax laws, changes in estimated exposures for uncertain tax positions, and other items. The Company’s tax expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 was favorably impacted by a decrease in the valuation allowance for a tax jurisdiction with tax losses where the tax benefit could not be recognized and negatively impacted by the non-deductible interest expense associated with the mandatorily redeemable preferred stock (Note 11) and the change in the fair value of the Company’s warrants (Note 10).

	11. Redeemable Common and Preferred Stock and Warrants
	Series A Preferred Stock
	On July 19, 2011 (the “Acquisition Date”), the Company issued 26,500 shares of Series A Preferred Stock to Macquarie. The Series A Preferred Stock participates pari passu Series B Preferred Stock as to dividends and liquidation preference, and was generally entitled to receive dividends of up to 14.0% (12.0% if the dividends were paid when declared) of the Series A Preferred Stock’s liquidation preference per year through April 10, 2013. On April 11, 2013, the Company amended its certificate of incorporation to, among other things, reduce the dividend rate payable on the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock to 11.375% (10.0% if the dividends are paid when declared) of the Series A Preferred Stock’s liquidation preference. Dividends are payable quarterly at the option of the Company or upon redemption. See Note 12 for further information.
	During each of three and six months ended June 30, 2014, the Company recognized approximately $0.9 and $1.8 million in interest expense related to the Series A Preferred Stock, respectively. During each of three and six months ended June 30, 2013, the Company recognized approximately $1.1 and $2.1 million in interest expense related to the Series A Preferred Stock, respectively. As of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 approximately $9.0 million in Series A Preferred Stock dividends payable are accrued and classified as long-term and included in accrued interest and dividends on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.
	The Series A Preferred Stock was classified as temporary stockholders’ equity at the Acquisition Date (rather than as a liability) as the shares were convertible to common stock for a period of time. Macquarie did not convert the Series A Preferred Stock into common stock within the required time period. Accordingly, as the Series A Preferred Stock is subject to mandatory redemption on July 19, 2021, the Series A Preferred Stock was reclassified from temporary stockholders’ equity to a long-term liability as of January 16, 2012.
	Series B Preferred Stock
	On the Acquisition Date, the Company issued 26,500 shares of Series B Preferred Stock to Macquarie. The Series B Preferred Stock participates pari passu with the Series A Preferred Stock as to dividends and liquidation preference, and was generally entitled to receive dividends of up to 14.0% (12.0% if the dividends were paid when declared) of the Series B Preferred Stock’s liquidation preference per year through April 10, 2013. On April 11, 2013 the Company amended its certificate of incorporation to, among other things, reduce the dividend rate payable on the Company’s Series B Preferred Stock to 11.375% (10.0% if the dividends are paid when declared) of the Series B Preferred Stock’s liquidation preference. Dividends are payable quarterly at the option of the Company or upon redemption. See Note 12 for further information.
	During each of three and six months ended June 30, 2014, the Company recognized approximately $0.9 and $1.8 million in interest expense related to the Series B Preferred Stock, respectively. During each of three and six months ended June 30, 2013, the Company recognized approximately $1.0 and $2.1 million in interest expense related to the Series B Preferred Stock, respectively. As of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 approximately $9.0 million in Series B Preferred Stock dividends payable are accrued and classified as long-term and included in accrued interest and dividends on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.
	The Series B Preferred Stock is required to be redeemed by the Company on July 19, 2021; accordingly, the Company classified the Series B Preferred Stock as a liability. In addition, the Company also retains a call option to redeem the Series B Preferred Stock at any time after issuance. This call option is exercisable through the mandatory redemption date of the Series B Preferred Stock, without penalty and at a redemption price per share equal to the Series B liquidation preference plus any accrued and unpaid dividends thereon.
	Common Stock
	On the Acquisition Date, Macquarie purchased 1,500 shares of common stock at $1,000 per share. The common stock issued to Macquarie can be put to the Company if the Series A Preferred Stock or Series B Preferred Stock is redeemed by the Company, either on an early redemption date or upon the mandatory redemption date. These 1,500 shares of common stock have been recorded as temporary equity given that redemption of the shares is not within the control of the Company.
	Macquarie Warrants
	In conjunction with the acquisition, the Company granted 3,960 warrants to Macquarie for the purchase of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $0.001. The Macquarie warrants expire on the tenth anniversary of the initial anniversary of the initial exercise date as defined in the Security Holders Agreement dated July 19, 2011 (the “Security Holders Agreement”). The Macquarie warrants contain a contingent put right which enables the holders of the warrants to require the Company to redeem the warrants at $1,000 per warrant share in the event that either the Series A Preferred Stock or Series B Preferred Stock are redeemed. In addition, the Macquarie warrants also contain non-standard ownership dilution protection in events in which additional shares of common stock are issued to shareholders other than Macquarie. These warrants are classified as long-term and measured at fair value in the statement of financial position at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, and will continue to be carried at fair value in subsequent accounting periods with changes in fair value being recorded in other income (expense) in the results of operations.
	Kenner Warrants
	In conjunction with the acquisition, the Company granted 5,940 warrants to Kenner for the purchase of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $0.001. The Kenner warrants expire on the seventh anniversary of the initial anniversary of the initial exercise date as defined in the Security Holders Agreement. The Kenner warrants are exercisable in whole or in part i) after the date in which a substantial liquidity event occurs, such as an initial public offering, sale of a majority stake of the Company’s common stock or merger or sale of assets; and ii) as part of the liquidity event, all of the Company’s initial investors receive an internal annual rate of return of at least 20.0% and at least two times the initial cash outflows of the investors.
	Similar to the Macquarie warrants, the Kenner warrants also contain non-standard ownership dilution protection in events where additional shares of common stock are issued to shareholders other than Kenner. These warrants are classified as long-term and measured at fair value in the statement of financial position at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, and will continue to be carried at fair value in subsequent accounting periods with changes in fair value being recorded in other income (expense) in the results of operations.

	As of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 the Company had two stand-by letters of credit under the Revolver with various banks for approximately $2.9 million securing the Company’s performance of obligations primarily related to workers’ compensation (Note 7).
	Billings in Excess of Costs
	As of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 the Company had approximately $2.9 and $5.3 million, respectively in billing in excess of costs which represents cash collected from customers and billings to customers in advance of work performed which is classified as current and included in accrued expenses and other liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.
	Litigation
	The Company experiences routine litigation in the normal course of business. The Company’s management is of the opinion that none of this routine litigation will have a material effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
	Risk Management Matters
	The Company is self-insured for certain of its workers’ compensation, product liability and disability claims and believes that it maintains adequate accruals to cover its retained liability. The Company accrues for risk management matters as determined by management based on claims filed and estimates of claims incurred but not yet reported that are not generally discounted. Management considers a number of factors when making these determinations. The Company maintains third-party stop-loss insurance policies to cover certain liability costs in excess of predetermined retained amounts. This insurance may be insufficient or unavailable (e.g., because of insurer insolvency) to protect the Company against loss exposure.
	The Company maintains property damage and business interruption insurance related to its operations. In June 2014 our France facility’s roof was damaged in a storm which will require the complete replacement of the roof. The insurer agreed to pay an estimated $2.3 million for the settlement of the pending insurance claim for business interruption and property damage. As a result, the Company recorded a gain of $1.9 million, net of $0.4 million in property, plant and equipment write-off which is included in other expense, net on the condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014.

	15. Supplemental Guarantor Information
	The payment obligations under the 2019 Notes (see Note 7) are guaranteed, jointly and severally, by Dynacast International Inc. (the “Parent”) and all of the Parent’s 100.0% owned domestic subsidiaries (other than the Issuers) that guarantee the obligations of Dynacast International under the Credit Facility. These guarantees are full and unconditional, subject, in the case of the subsidiary guarantors, to customary release provisions. The Issuers are also 100.0% owned subsidiaries of the Parent. The 2019 Notes and the guarantees are secured by second priority liens on substantially all of the Issuers’ assets and the assets of the guarantors (whether owned or hereafter arising or acquired), subject to certain exceptions, permitted liens and encumbrances. The 2019 Notes are instruments of the Issuers and are reflected in their balance sheets.
	Each of the Parent and the Issuers has no material operations of its own and only limited assets. The Company conducts the vast majority of its business operations through its subsidiaries. In servicing payments to be made on the 2019 Notes and other indebtedness, and to satisfy other liquidity requirements, the Company will rely, in large part, on cash flows from these subsidiaries, mainly in the form of dividends, royalties and advances or payments on account of inter-company loan arrangements. The ability of these subsidiaries to make dividend payments to the Company or Issuers will be affected by, among other factors, the obligations of these entities to their creditors, requirements of corporate and other law and restrictions contained in agreements entered into by or relating to these entities.
	The following supplemental condensed combining financial information sets forth, on a combining basis, balance sheets, statements of operations and statements of cash flows for the Parent, the Issuers, the guarantor subsidiaries, the non-guarantor subsidiaries and elimination entries necessary to consolidate the Parent and its subsidiaries. The condensed combining financial information has been prepared on the same basis as the condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company as of and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 and as of December 31, 2013. The Parent, the Issuers and the guarantors account for their investments in subsidiaries using the equity method of accounting; therefore, the Parent column, the Issuers column and the Guarantor column reflect the equity in net earnings/losses of its subsidiary guarantors and subsidiary non-guarantors, as appropriate.
	During the six months ended June 30, 2014, mandatorily redeemable equity certificates between the guarantors and non-guarantors in the amount of $132.4 million were converted to intercompany loans in a non-cash transaction between the guarantors and the non-guarantors. Additionally, $23.5 million of intercompany loans among the issuers, the guarantors, and non-guarantors were settled in a non-cash settlement of the loans through the conversion of the loans to equity. There were no similar non-cash transactions during the corresponding period in the prior year. As these are non-cash transactions, these transactions are not included in the condensed combining statement of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2014.

	Basis of Presentation
	The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and do not include all the information and footnotes required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring items) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and results of operations. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2014. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2013 and the footnotes thereto included in the Company’s Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 14, 2014.
Reclassification	'
	Reclassification
	Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to current classifications. Accrued dividends on mandatorily redeemable preferred stock has been reclassified to adjustments to reconcile net loss to net cash flows used in operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2013 from changes in operating assets and liabilities with no impact on net cash flows used in operating activities.
Accounting and Disclosure Changes	'
	Accounting and Disclosure Changes
	Changes to U.S. GAAP are established by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) in the form of accounting standards updates (“ASUs”) to the FASB’s Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”). The Company considers the applicability and impact of all ASUs.
	In March 2013, the FASB issued an ASU that indicates when the cumulative translation adjustment (“CTA”) related to an entity’s investment in a foreign entity should be released to earnings. The CTA should be released when an entity sells a foreign subsidiary or a group of net assets within a foreign entity and the sale represents the substantially complete liquidation of the investment in a foreign entity. The CTA should also be released when an entity no longer has a controlling financial interest in an investment in a foreign entity. This guidance, which is effective for the Company in fiscal 2014 on a prospective basis, does not have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.
	In July 2013, the FASB issued an ASU which states that entities should present the unrecognized tax benefit as a reduction of the deferred tax asset for a net operating loss (“NOL”) or similar tax loss or tax credit carry-forward rather than as a liability when the uncertain tax position would reduce the NOL or other carry-forward under the tax law. This guidance, which is effective for the Company in fiscal 2014 on a prospective basis, does not have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.
	In September 2013, the Internal Revenue Service released final tangible property regulations under the Internal Revenue Code regarding the deduction and capitalization of expenditures related to tangible property as well as dispositions of tangible property. These regulations will be effective for the Company’s fiscal year ending December 31, 2015. Taxpayers may elect to apply them to tax years beginning on or after January 1, 2012. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that these regulations will have on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
	In May 2014, the FASB issued an ASU related to revenue recognition which amends the former revenue recognition guidance. This new guidance provides a single, comprehensive revenue recognition model for all contracts with customers. This guidance contains principles that an entity will apply to determine the measurement of revenue and timing of when revenue is recognized. The entity will recognize revenue to reflect the transfer of goods or services to customers at an amount that the entity expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. This guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2016, and early adoption is not permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact on our consolidated financial statements.

	-1	The 9.25% Senior Secured Second Lien Notes due 2019 (the “2019 Notes”) were co-issued by Dynacast International LLC (“Dynacast International”) and Dynacast Finance Inc. (“Dynacast Finance” and collectively the “Issuers”), each a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. The 2019 Notes are guaranteed on a senior secured basis by the Company and all of the Company’s direct and indirect domestic subsidiaries that guarantee the obligations of Dynacast International under the Credit Facility, as defined below (Note 15). The 2019 Notes and the guarantees are secured by second priority liens on substantially all of the Issuers’ assets and the assets of the guarantors (whether now owned or hereafter arising or acquired), subject to certain exceptions, permitted liens and encumbrances.
	-2	Interest on the 2019 Notes is fixed at 9.25% with interest payments due semi-annually on January 15th and July 15th. Interest accrued from July 19, 2011. Principal payment is due on July 15, 2019.
	-3	The Company has a Credit Facility which is comprised of a senior secured first-lien revolving credit facility (the “Revolver”) for $50.0 million which is available for working capital purposes, including the provision of letters of credit and a $50.0 million senior secured first-lien term loan (the “Term Loan”). Outstanding balances under the Term Loan and the Revolver bear interest at a rate equal to, at the Company’s option, either (i) the alternative base rate (“ABR”) plus the applicable margin(4) for ABR loans; or (ii) Adjusted London Interbank Offered Rate (“Adjusted LIBOR”) plus applicable margin(5) for Eurodollar loans. Principal payments on the Term Loan are due quarterly. Principal payment on the Revolver is due July 19, 2016.
	-4	The ABR is equal to the greatest of (a) the base rate in effect for such day, (b) federal funds effective rate in effect on such day plus 0.50% or (c) the Adjusted LIBOR for an interest period of one-month beginning on such day plus 100 basis points; provided that the ABR shall be deemed to be not less that 2.50% per annum. The ABR for each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 was 3.25%.
	-5	Adjusted LIBOR with respect to any borrowing comprised of Eurodollar loans (“Eurodollar Borrowing”) for any interest period is (a) an interest rate per annum (rounded upward, if necessary, to the nearest 1/100th of 1%) determined by JPMorgan Chase Bank as “Administrative Agent” under the Credit Facility to be equal to the LIBOR for such Eurodollar Borrowing in effect for such interest period divided by (b) 1 minus the Statutory Reserves (if any) for such Eurodollar Borrowing for such interest period; provided that the Adjusted LIBOR shall be deemed to be not less than 1.50% per annum. The Adjusted LIBOR for each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 was 1.50%.
	-6	The applicable margin, effective May 21, 2014, with respect to any outstanding balances under the Term Loan or Revolver is 3.50% and 4.50% for ABR and Eurodollar Borrowings, respectively, subject to changes in the total leverage ratio as calculated on and after the fifth business day after delivery to the Administrative Agent of the quarterly or annual financial statements. The applicable margin for the period August 23, 2013 through May 20, 2014 with respect to any outstanding balances under the Term Loan or Revolver was 3.25% and 4.25% for ABR and Eurodollar Borrowings, respectively. The applicable margin at June 30, 2013 with respect to any outstanding balances under the Term Loan or Revolver was 3.50% and 4.50% for ABR and Eurodollar Borrowings, respectively.
	-7	The commitment fee for the Revolver is 0.75%, effective May 21, 2014, on the average daily unused amount of the Revolver commitment subject to changes in the total leverage ratio as calculated on and after the fifth business day after delivery to the Administrative Agent of the quarterly or annual financial statements. The commitment fee for the period August 23, 2013 through May 20, 2014 for the Revolver was 0.50% on the average daily unused amount of revolving commitment. The commitment fee at June 30, 2013 for the Revolver was 0.75% on the average daily unused amount of revolving commitment.
	-8	The letter of credit participation fee to any Revolver lender with respect to its participation in the Credit Facility is a rate equal to the applicable margin used to determine the interest rate on Eurodollar Borrowings on the average daily amount of such lender’s letter of credit exposure, which is defined as the aggregate undrawn amount of all outstanding letters of credit plus aggregate principal amount of all reimbursement obligations outstanding.
	-9	The fronting fee to any issuing bank in its capacity as an issuer of letters of credit is 0.25% on the average daily amount of letter of credit exposure.
	-10	With respect to any ABR Term or Revolver loan, interest is payable on the last business day of March, June, September and December of each year. With respect to any Eurodollar Borrowing Term or Revolver loan, interest is payable on the last day of the interest period as defined in the Credit Facility. For Eurodollar Borrowings with interest periods greater than three months, interest is payable in intervals of every three months.
	-11	Accrued fees are payable in arrears on the last business day of March, June, September and December of each year.
	-12	The ERP Fonds Austria Wirtschaftsservice loan (the “ERP Loan”) was received in connection with the investment in a new aluminum die-casting facility in Austria. Interest is fixed at 0.50% from January 1, 2012 to June 30, 2015 and at 1.5% from July 1, 2015 to December 31, 2018 with interest payments due quarterly. Interest accrued from June 18, 2013 when the ERP Loan was drawn. Principal payments are due semi-annually beginning June 30, 2015. A guarantee fee of 0.30% is charged quarterly in advance on the outstanding ERP Loan balance.
