By leveraging these core capabilities and resources—Carlyle has established a 25-year overall track record of investing in companies, working to make them better and serving our investors’ needs. About Allison and the Transaction Founded in 1915, Allison Transmission, Inc. is a global designer, manufac- turer and supplier of automatic transmissions for medium- and heavy-duty commercial vehicles and specialty military vehicles, including on-highway trucks, buses, motorhomes and off-highway vehicles.

Allison has approximately 2,800 employees worldwide with more than 2,500 employees in Indiana, Allison Transmission, Inc. approximately 1,500 of whom are represented by the United Automobile Workers.

Industry: Industrial & Transportation Region/Country: Indiana, USA Key Value Creation Metrics Fund: Carlyle Partners IV • Acquired the business as an orphaned division within General Motors and transformed it into a standalone company listed on the New York Stock Acquired: August 2007 Exchange Status: Partially Exited • Supported EBITDA growth from $544 million to $712 million, a 30% increase, despite a severe market downturn in the commercial vehicle industry • Invested more than $450 million in product related research and develop- ment, including new hybrid, fuel-efficient electric drives • Pursued international growth opportunities by increasing market share in Europe and emerging markets, including China and India The Carlyle Group and Onex, another investment firm, acquired Allison from General Motors in August 2007. At the time, Allison was a subsidiary of General Motors, lacking the resources necessary to grow the business. Carlyle and Onex saw the opportunity to take an under-resourced and sub- optimized business, support leadership, infuse capital and transform it into a platform that could take advantage of the growing global demand for trans- mission products. THE CARLYLE GROUP 1001 PENNSYLVANIA AVENUE, NW WASHINGTON, DC 20004-2505 202-729-5626 WWW.CARLYLE.COM During Carlyle’s investment, Allison transitioned from an operating divi- sion at GM to a well-capitalized standalone company. In March 2012, Allison became a publicly-traded company and listed its shares on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol ALSN. Strengthening its Core Domestic Business To position Allison for growth, Carlyle enhanced the company’s senior leader- ship team after acquiring the business from GM, including appointing directors with considerable commercial experience and supplementing the management team with a new CFO. During its ownership, Carlyle worked with Allison to execute a number of manufacturing and purchasing initiatives to increase efficiency, reduce operating costs and enhance profitability. For example, Allison implemented a Deep industry expertise. Global scale mutually-beneficial labor agreement with the UAW that introduced an annual and presence.

    OFFICE OF THE ATTORNEY GENERAL FLORIDA NEW MOTOR VEHICLE ARBITRATION BOARD CASE SUMMARIES January 1997-March 1998 JURISDICTION: Ramirez & Gendler v. Nissan Motor Corporation, 1996-1143/FTL (Fla. NMVAB Dec. 12, 1996) The Manufacturer asserted that the Board lacked jurisdiction to consider the Consumer’s claim because the defect complained of stemmed directly from an accident. The defect complained of was an electric short with an air bag sensor. The Board concluded that the dispute between the parties to this case involved issues of product liability or negligence connected with the accident. The matters raised in this case were found to be outside the scope of the board’s authority. The claim was dismissed. Darling v. Ford Motor Co., 1997-0758/FTM (Fla. NMVAB Oct. 7, 1997) Prior to the arbitration hearing, the Consumer voluntarily surrendered his vehicle to the Lessor and made no arrangements with the Lessor to regain possession or custody of the vehicle. The Board concluded that Section 681.104(2)(a), Florida Statutes (1995) contemplated that the Consumer would be in possession of the vehicle or otherwise capable of delivering the vehicle to the Manufacturer if the Consumer prevailed in arbitration. Since the Consumer no longer had possession or title to the vehicle, he was not eligible for arbitration by the Board and the case was dismissed. Ramos v. American Isuzu Motors, Inc., 1998-0048/JAX (Fla. NMVAB March 11, 1998) The Consumer purchased her vehicle in Florida but subsequently moved to Connecticut. All of the repairs were performed in Connecticut. The Consumer requested arbitration by the Better Business Bureau in Connecticut and informed the BBB the vehicle had been purchased in Florida.

Thanks to the generosity of food donors, financial donors, in-kind donors and volunteers, that community has grown as Second Helpings now reaches people in need in five counties – Marion, Hamilton, Hendricks, Boone and Johnson. This report highlights the contributions of two food donors – Kroger and Whole Foods, and how their gifts have advanced our mission. You’ll also hear from a longtime volunteer, Dick Bender, who has logged thousands of hours in the Hunger Relief kitchen while also introducing others to Second Helpings’ work. Under the leadership of Executive Chef Kathy Jones, the Hunger Relief program has continued to expand not just in numbers and geography, but in responding to the different needs of the people we serve. This past summer they piloted a hot breakfast program for a local Boys and Girls Club. The club staff reported back that with a hot breakfast to start their day, the youth were now more alert, attentive, and engaged during programs. We can’t underestimate the importance of good food and good nutrition for growing minds and bodies, and you will read in this report about the impact that Second Helpings meals have had for young A MESSAGE athletes across Indianapolis in helping them to excel both on and off the field.
