This presentation contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended, and Section 27A of the Securities Act, as amended, including, for example, statements about the Company’s business strategy, its
industry, its future profitability, growth in the Company’s various markets, and the Company’s expectations, beliefs, plans, strategies,
objectives, prospects and assumptions.  These forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance.  These statements
involve
known
and
unknown
risks,
uncertainties
and
other
factors
that
may
cause
the
Company’s
actual
results
and
performance
to
be
materially different from any future results or performance expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. For a discussion of key
risk factors, please see the risk factors disclosed in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 and
the registration statement (including a prospectus and prospectus supplement) for the offering to which this communication relates, which are
available
on
the
SEC’s
website
at
www.sec.gov
and
on
the
Company’s
website,

Undue reliance should not be placed on the Company’s forward-looking statements.  Although forward-looking statements reflect the
Company’s good faith beliefs, reliance should not be placed on forward-looking statements because they involve known and unknown risks,
uncertainties and other factors, which may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially from anticipated future
results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements.  The Company undertakes no obligation to
publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events, changed circumstances or
otherwise.
Statement Regarding Use of Non-GAAP Measures:
The Non-GAAP financial measures contained in this presentation (EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Gross Profit and variations thereof)
are
not
measures
of
financial
performance
calculated
in
accordance
with
GAAP
and
should
not
be
considered
as
alternatives
to
net
income
(loss) or any other performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP or as alternatives to cash flows from operating activities as a
measure
of
our
liquidity.
They
should
be
viewed
in
addition
to,
and
not
as
a
substitute
for,
analysis
of
our
results
reported
in
accordance
with
GAAP, or as alternative measures of liquidity.  Management believes that certain non-GAAP financial measures provide a view to measures
similar to those used in evaluating our compliance with certain financial covenants under our credit facilities and provide financial statement
users meaningful comparisons between current and prior year period results.  They are also used as a metric to determine certain
components of performance-based compensation.  The adjustments and Adjusted EBITDA are based on currently available information and
certain adjustments that we believe are reasonable and are presented as an aid in understanding our operating results. They are not
necessarily indicative of future results of operations that may be obtained by the Company.
