      (1) EBITDA represents earnings before interest, income taxes,
        depreciation and amortization. Amounts are calculated based on
        the Company's ownership percentage of the EBITDA components.
        Management believes that EBITDA can be a meaningful measure of
        the Company's operating performance, cash generation and
        ability to service debt. However, EBITDA should not be
        considered as an alternative to either: (i) net earnings
        (determined in accordance with GAAP); (ii) operating cash flow
        (determined in accordance with GAAP); or (iii) liquidity.
        There can be no assurance that the Company's calculation of
        EBITDA is comparable to similarly titled items reported by
        other companies.

      (1) EBITDA represents earnings before interest, income taxes,
        depreciation and amortization. Amounts are calculated based on
        the Company's ownership percentage of the EBITDA components.
        Management believes that EBITDA can be a meaningful measure of
        the Company's operating performance, cash generation and
        ability to service debt. However, EBITDA should not be
        considered as an alternative to either: (i) net earnings
        (determined in accordance with GAAP); (ii) operating cash flow
        (determined in accordance with GAAP); or (iii) liquidity.
        There can be no assurance that the Company's calculation of
        EBITDA is comparable to similarly titled items reported by
        other companies.
