These measures should be considered as an alternative to, but not superior to or as a substitute for, the comparable GAAP measures. (a) Other adjustments include: Early termination of interest rate swap; early debt retirement/duplicate interest; and a favorable adjustment resulting from a change in the Company’s paid time off (PTO) benefit for the years ended 2012, 2011 and 2009, respectively. (b) Free cash flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities net of capital expenditures, i.e., additions to property, plant and equipment. The Company views free cash flow as an important indicator of its ability to repay debt, fund growth and return cash to shareholders. Free cash flow is not a measure of the residual cash flow that is available for discretionary expenditures, since the Company has certain non-discretionary obligations, such as debt service, that are not deducted from the measure. Cash Flow Efficiency is defined as free cash flow divided by net earnings.
