27 Appendix

28 Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures (In Millions) Our presentation of results includes Adjusted EBITDA which is not recognized under GAAP (Generally Accepted Accounting Principles) and does not purport to be alternatives to net income as a measure of operating performance or to cash flows from operating activities as a measure of liquidity. Additionally, it is not intended to be a measure of free cash flow for management's discretionary use, as it does not consider certain cash requirements such as interest payments, tax payments and debt service requirements. We present Adjusted EBITDA because the covenants contained in our senior debt agreements are based upon these measures and Adjusted EBITDA is a material component of these covenants. Additionally, management uses Adjusted EBITDA to evaluate the company’s operating performance. Because not all companies use identical calculations, this presentation may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. Adjusted EBITDA is reconciled to net income (loss) in our quarterly earnings releases filed on Form 8-K with the Securities and Exchange Commission and such reconciliation has also been provided above.
