Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure that reflects the company’s earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization expense, and further
adjusted for letter of credit fees, professional restructure fees, discontinued operations, and other items as defined in the company’s Credit Agreement. Adjusted
EBITDA is used for internal management purposes as a financial measure that reflect the company’s core operating performance and is used by management
to measure compliance with financial covenants in the company’s Credit Agreement. This financial measure should not be construed as a better measurement
than operating income as defined by generally accepted accounting principles. See Pages15 and16 for reconciliations of GAAP measures to non-GAAP
financial measures.
