| commonly used in our industry and should not be construed as an alternative to net income or operating income as an indicator of | ||||||||
| operating performance or as an alternative to cash flow provided by operating activities as a measure of liquidity (as determined in | ||||||||
| accordance with GAAP). Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. The | ||||||||
| calculation of Adjusted EBITDA is consistent with the definition of EBITDA in our senior subordinated notes indentures. We have | ||||||||
| included Adjusted EBITDA because we believe it provides management and investors with additional information to measure our | ||||||||
| performance and liquidity, estimate our value and evaluate our ability to service debt. In addition, we use Adjusted EBITDA for | ||||||||
| incentive compensation purposes. | ||||||||
