Forward Looking Statements
©
Neustar Inc. / All Rights Reserved
These slides and the accompanying oral presentation contain forward-looking statements made pursuant to the safe harbor provision
of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including, without limitation, statements about the company’s expectations,
beliefs and business results in the future.  The company has attempted, whenever possible, to identify these forward-looking
statements using words such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “projects,” “estimates,” “expects,” “plans,” “intends,” “anticipates,” “believes”
and variations of these words and similar expressions.  Similarly, statements herein that describe the company’s business strategy,
prospects, opportunities, outlooks, objectives, plans, intentions or goals are also forward-looking statements.  The company cannot
assure you that its expectations will be achieved or that any deviations will not be material.  Forward-looking statements are subject
to many assumptions, risks and uncertainties that may cause future results to differ materially from those anticipated. Among the
important factors that could cause future events or results to vary from those addressed in the forward-looking statements include
without limitation, risks and uncertainties arising from the possibility that the closing of the transaction may be delayed or may not
occur; difficulties with the integration process or the realization of the benefits of the transaction; the uncertainty of future revenue
and profitability and potential fluctuations in operating results due to such factors as disruptions to the company’s operations or
modifications to or terminations of material contracts; general economic conditions in the regions and industries in which Neustar and
TARGUSinfo operate; and regulatory matters involving antitrust and other issues that could affect the closing of the
transaction.   More information about potential factors that could affect the company’s business and financial results is included in its
filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including, without limitation, the company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for
the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010 and subsequent periodic and current reports.  All forward-looking statements are based on
information available to the company on the date of this presentation, and the company undertakes no obligation to update any of the
forward-looking statements after the date of this presentation.  Statements regarding previously issued guidance speak only as of the
date such guidance was issued and this information is not being updated or confirmed in this presentation.
