Appendix

EBITDA is a measure used by management to evaluate the Company’s ongoing operations and as a general indicator of its operating cash flow (in

conjunction with a cash flow statement that also includes, among other items, changes in working capital and the effect of non-cash charges). The

Company defines EBITDA as net income, plus interest expense, net of interest income, provision for income taxes, and depreciation and amortization.

Management believes EBITDA is useful to investors because it is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the

comparative evaluation of companies. Because not all companies use identical calculations, the company's presentation of EBITDA and EBITDA per

share may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. EBITDA is not a recognized term under GAAP and does not purport to be

an alternative to net income as a measure of operating performance or to cash flows from operating activities as a measure of liquidity. Additionally,

EBITDA is not intended to be a measure of free cash flow for management's discretionary use as it does not reflect certain cash requirements such as

interest payments, tax payments and debt service requirements. Pursuant to the requirements of Regulation G, we have provided a reconciliation of

EBITDA to GAAP net income:
