*EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure. We believe EBITDA is a useful and relevant measure as it is commonly used by capital markets to value enterprises and assess financial operating results. Interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization can vary significantly between companies in part due to differences in accounting policies, acquisitions, tax strategies, levels of investable assets, levels of indebtedness, and interest rates. Additionally, EBITDA is considered a reasonable approximation of cash flow and is one of the measures used for determining our debt compliance, rates and capacity. Due to the reasons listed above, management believes EBITDA is useful information for investors. However, EBITDA should not be used as a substitute for, and is not superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. Likewise, the use of EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
