Safe Harbor and Forward Looking Information
14
Certain statements in this presentation are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and are
based on current expectations and assumptions that are subject to risks and uncertainties. All statements contained in this presentation that do not relate to
matters of historical fact should be considered forward-looking statements, and are generally identified by words such as “expect,” “intend,” “anticipate,”
“estimate,” “plan,” and other similar expressions. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements related to: the Company’s
anticipated future financial performance; expected future product releases; expected consolidation of our Massachusetts operations; the expected impact of the
12x12 Program and related charges; expected timing of the divestitures of our discontinued operations; management’s plans and objectives for future
operations; anticipated sales performance; industry trends; market conditions; changes in actual or assumed tax liabilities; expectations regarding tax exposure;
future acquisitions and dispositions;  the Company’s optimism regarding its prospects for the future; and other statements that are not historical facts. 
These forward-looking statements are neither promises nor guarantees, but involve risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ materially from
those contained in the forward-looking statements. Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements for many
reasons, including, but not limited to, the following: economic and political conditions and the effects of these conditions on our customers’ businesses and level
of business activity; our significant dependence upon our customers’ capital expenditures, which are subject to cyclical market fluctuations; our dependence upon
our ability to respond to fluctuations in product demand; our ability to continually innovate; delays in our delivery of new products; our reliance upon third party
distribution channels subject to credit, business concentration and business failure risks beyond our control; fluctuations in our quarterly results and our failure to
meet or exceed the expectations of securities analysts or investors; customer order timing and other similar factors beyond our control; changes in interest rates,
credit ratings or foreign currency exchange rates; risk associated with our operations in foreign countries; our increased use of outsourcing in foreign countries;
our failure to comply with local import and export regulations in the jurisdictions in which we operate; our history of operating losses and our ability to sustain our
profitability; our exposure to the credit risk of some of our customers and in weakened markets; violations of our intellectual property rights and our ability to
protect our intellectual property against infringement by third parties; risk of losing our competitive advantage; our ability to make acquisitions or divestitures that
provide business benefits; our failure to successfully integrate future acquisitions into our business; our ability to retain key personnel; our restructuring and
realignment activities and disruptions to our operations as a result of consolidation of our operations; product defects or problems integrating our products with
other vendors’ products; disruptions in the supply of or defects in raw materials, certain key components or other goods from our suppliers; production difficulties
and product delivery delays or disruptions; changes in governmental regulation of our business or products; disruption in our information technology systems or
our failure to implement new systems and software successfully; our failure to realize the full value of our intangible assets; any requirement to make additional
tax payments and/or recalculate certain of our tax attributes depending on the resolution of the complaint we filed against the U.S. government; our ability to
utilize our net operating loss carryforwards and other tax attributes; fluctuations in our effective tax rates and audit of our estimates of tax liabilities; being subject
to U.S. federal income taxation even though we are a non-U.S. corporation; being subject to the Alternative Minimum Tax for U.S. federal income tax purposes;
any need for additional capital to adequately respond to business challenges or opportunities and repay or refinance our existing indebtedness, which may not be
available on acceptable terms or at all; volatility in the market for our common shares; our dependence on significant cash flow to service our indebtedness and
fund our operations; our ability to access cash and other assets of our subsidiaries; the influence over our business of several significant shareholders; provisions
of our articles of incorporation may delay or prevent a change in control; our significant existing indebtedness and restrictions in our new senior secured credit
agreement that may limit our ability to engage in certain activities; our intention not to pay dividends in the near future; and our failure to maintain appropriate
internal controls in the future. 
Other important risk factors that could affect the outcome of the events set forth in this presentation and that could affect the Company’s operating results and
financial condition are discussed in Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011, and in the Company’s subsequent
filings with the SEC made prior to or after the date hereof. Such statements are based on the Company’s management’s beliefs and assumptions and on
information currently available to the Company’s management. The Company disclaims any obligation to update any forward-looking statements as a result of
developments occurring after the date of this presentation except as required by law.


In addition to the financial measures prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), we use certain non-GAAP financial
measures, including adjusted EBITDA, free cash flow, and net debt. Non-GAAP adjustments to adjusted EBITDA include: depreciation and amortization,
share-based compensation, restructuring and restatement costs, pre-petition and post-emergence professional fees, Net income attributable to
noncontrolling interest, and other non-recurring items. Free cash flow is defined as cash provided by (used in) operating activities less capital expenditures. 
Net debt is defined as total debt less cash and cash equivalents.
Management believes non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding the Company’s operating results because it
excludes amounts that management does not consider part of operating results when assessing and measuring the operational and financial performance of
the Company. Management believes non-GAAP measures allow a useful alternative for viewing operating trends and performing analytical comparisons.
Accordingly, the Company believes non-GAAP measures provide greater transparency and insight into management’s method of analysis. While
management believes  non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information, these are not measures under U.S. GAAP, and therefore, should not be
considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, GAAP financial measures such as income from operations or net income.
Non-GAAP
financial
measures
are
also
used
by
our
management
to
evaluate
our
operating
performance,
communicate
our
financial
results
to
our Board of
Directors, benchmark our operating results against our historical performance and the performance of our peers, evaluate investment opportunities including
acquisitions and divestitures, and determine the bonus payments for senior management and other employees.
