SUPPLEMENTAL NON-GAAP FINANCIAL
MEASURES (UNAUDITED)
As adjusted earnings per share on a fully diluted basis are a measure
that excludes significant non-cash credits and charges and significant
and infrequent contingency expenses. As adjusted earnings per share on a
fully diluted basis are not a measure of performance under generally
accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") and should not be considered in
isolation or as a substitute for GAAP earnings per share, cash flows
from operating, investing and financing activities and other income or
cash flow statement data prepared in accordance with GAAP or as a
measure of profitability or liquidity. The Company presents as adjusted
earnings per share on a fully diluted basis because management uses as
adjusted earnings per share on a fully diluted basis to measure
performance. As adjusted earnings per share on a fully diluted basis
herein may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other
companies. The following table reconciles GAAP earnings per share to as
