We are providing our current expectations for NewPage Corporation (the “company”) as of the date of this Current Report for the periods discussed. These expectations are based on currently available information, which is subject to revision. Accordingly, we may report financial results that are materially different than our current expectations described below.

We currently expect that Adjusted EBITDA (net income (loss) attributable to the company before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization and adjusted to exclude certain items such as non-cash expenses and gains and losses on sales of assets) for the third quarter of 2010 will be between approximately $90 million and $100 million, compared to $10 million for the second quarter of 2010 and $140 million for the third quarter of 2009 (2009 levels included $94 million of income from alternative fuel mixture tax credits). We currently expect that net income (loss) attributable to the company for the third quarter of 2010 will be between approximately $(75) million and $(85) million, compared to $(174) million for the second quarter of 2010 and $(138) million for the third quarter of 2009.

We currently expect that Adjusted EBITDA for the fourth quarter of 2010 will be between approximately $145 million and $165 million, compared to $88 million for the fourth quarter of 2009 (2009 levels included $90 million of income from alternative fuel mixture tax credits). We currently expect that net income (loss) attributable to the company for the fourth quarter of 2010 will be between approximately $(10) million and $(35) million, compared to $(55) million for the fourth quarter of 2009. We currently expect that our levels of sales volume and pricing for the fourth quarter of 2010 will be indicative of the quarterly sales volume and pricing levels in 2011 after consideration of seasonal factors.

EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) attributable to the company before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation or amortization. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not measures of our performance under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”), are not intended to represent net income (loss) attributable to the company, and should not be used as an alternative to net income (loss) attributable to the company as an indicator of performance. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are shown because they are a basis upon which our management assesses our performance and are primary components of certain covenants under our revolving credit facility. The use of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA instead of net income (loss) attributable to the company has limitations as an analytic tool and you should not consider them in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the company’s results under U.S. GAAP. See our periodic filings for a further discussion of the limitations on the use of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as an analytic tool as well as a reconciliation of net income (loss) attributable to the company to Adjusted EBITDA for the third quarter of 2009, the fourth quarter of 2009 and the second quarter of 2010.
