(1) The information for the three months ended April 1, 2006 and the
three months ended April 2, 2005 has been derived from the
unaudited statements of operation.
(2) EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not represent and should not be
considered as an alternative to net income or cash flow from
operations, as determined by accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States (GAAP), and NSP's and the Company's
calculations thereof may not be comparable to that reported by
other companies. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are calculated above
as it is a basis upon which NSP and the Company assesses their
liquidity position and because we believe that they present useful
information to investors regarding a company's ability to service
and/or incur indebtedness. This belief is based on NSP's and the
Company's negotiations with its lenders who have indicated that
the amount of indebtedness it will be permitted to incur will be
based, in part, on measures similar to their EBITDA and Adjusted
EBITDA. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not take into account NSP's
and the Company's working capital requirements, debt service
requirements and other commitments and, accordingly, are not
necessarily indicative of amounts that may be available for
discretionary use.

(1) On July 19, 2005, all the outstanding units of NSP were acquired
by Holdings from NSP Holdings, with the result that Holdings
became the sole unit holder of NSP and assumed, pursuant to a
supplemental indenture, the obligations of NSP Holdings and
Capital under their outstanding $100 million 11 3/4% Senior Pay in
Kind Notes due 2012 and the indenture governing such notes. NSP
Holdings' financial position and results of operations prior to
the acquisition are presented separately in the consolidated
financial statements as "Predecessor" financial statements, while
the financial position and results of operations of Holdings
following the acquisition are presented as "Successor" financial
statements. Due to the revaluation of assets as a result of
purchase accounting associated with the acquisition, the
pre-acquisition financial statements are not comparable with those
after the acquisition in certain respects.
