NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) 1. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS The interim consolidated financial statements are unaudited but, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. These adjustments consist of normal, recurring items. The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year. The consolidated financial statements and notes are presented as permitted by the requirements for Form 10-Q and do not contain certain information included in the Company's annual consolidated financial statements and notes. This Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the Company's consolidated financial statements and notes included in its 1998 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Certain balance sheet amounts in the prior year's financial statements have been reclassified to be consistent with the current period's presentation. 2. EARNINGS PER SHARE Basic earnings per share is calculated using the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period adjusted for ESOP shares not committed. Diluted earnings per share is computed on the basis of the weighted average basic shares outstanding plus the dilutive effect of outstanding stock options using the "treasury stock" method. The following table sets forth the computation of the weighted average basic and diluted shares outstanding: Three Months Ended March 31, (In millions) 1999 1998 -------- -------- Weighted average shares outstanding 40.3 40.7 Weighted average ESOP shares not committed (1.1) (1.6) -------- -------- Weighted average basic shares outstanding 39.2 39.1 Dilutive effect of common stock equivalents 0.1 0.2 -------- -------- Weighted average diluted shares outstanding 39.3 39.3 ======== ======== 6 3.

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES Discussion of legal matters is cross-referenced to this Form 10-Q, Part II, Item 1, Legal Proceedings, and should be considered an integral part of the Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes. 5. RESTRUCTURING In the fourth quarter of 1997 and in 1998, the Company recorded charges for the restructuring of its worldwide operations in order to improve the Company's competitive position, to focus resources on areas of strength and on growth opportunities, and to reduce costs and eliminate unnecessary structure. The following table represents the cumulative activity related to the Company's 1997 and 1998 restructuring programs: (in millions) Program Cumulative March 31, 1999 Amounts Usage Balance ------- ----- ------- Severance $ 62.6 $ (45.0) $ 17.6 Asset impairments 55.3 (55.3) -- Other 38.9 (26.8) 12.1 -------- -------- -------- Total $ 156.8 $ (127.1) $ 29.7 ======== ======== ======== During the three months ended March 31, 1999 the Company made cash payments of $14.2 million related to the restructuring programs, compared to $5.8 million paid in the same period of 1998. Remaining severance payments related to employee separations are expected to be made throughout the first nine months of 1999. Since initiation of the program total headcount has been reduced by 1900. The Company evaluates its restructuring reserves quarterly and adjusts such reserves to reflect changes in estimates as information becomes available. 7 6. SALE OF MEDICAL IMAGING BUSINESS On November 30, 1998, the Company sold its worldwide medical imaging business to Eastman Kodak Company (Kodak). In connection with the sale, Kodak immediately acquired the assets and assumed the liabilities of the Company's medical imaging businesses in North America, Latin America and Asia, including manufacturing facilities in Oregon and Minnesota and all the outstanding shares of Cemax Icon, Inc. (Cemax), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. The formal closings of the sale of the Company's medical imaging businesses in Europe (European Businesses) to Kodak occurred on a country-by-country basis during the first quarter of 1999. Under the terms of the Asset Purchase Agreement (as defined below), beginning December 1, 1998, Kodak has been entitled to the operating results and cash flows of the European Businesses. Under the terms of the Asset Purchase Agreement dated as of July 31, 1998 and amended and restated as of November 30, 1998 between the Company and Kodak (as amended and restated, the Asset Purchase Agreement), Kodak has paid the Company $532.2 million in cash as of December 31, 1998, of which $18.0 million represents a nonrefundable deposit under the Ferrania Supply Agreement (as defined below). Of the $532.2 million cash proceeds, the Company was restricted from using $143.0 million until the medical imaging businesses in Europe were legally transferred to Kodak; this amount was classified in other current assets in the December 31, 1998 Consolidated Balance Sheet. The restrictions were lifted and the amount was reclassified as unrestricted cash during the first quarter of 1999 as the sale of the European businesses closed. On November 30, 1998, the Company entered into a Distribution Agreement with Kodak under which the Company acted as Kodak's exclusive distributor for the European Businesses during the period from December 1, 1998 through the formal closings of each of the European Businesses. The Company recorded a pre-tax gain of $65.0 million on the sale in 1998, net of related costs. Included in those costs was an accrual for $16.9 million for pension and other curtailment and settlement costs related to employees transferred to Kodak. The Company receives reimbursement from Kodak for certain services under transition services and distribution agreements that the Company has agreed to provide Kodak while Kodak integrates the medical imaging businesses into its accounting and information systems. These include information technology, logistics, finance, telecommunications, office space, human resources and site services. The Company has agreed to provide such services under the transition services agreement for a period of up to two years, primarily in the United States and, to a lesser extent, in Asia and Latin America, and under a distribution agreement through the dates of individual country closings for the European Businesses. Kodak, at its option, may terminate the transition services agreement with respect to individual categories of service upon prior notice, the length of which varies according to the nature of the service. 8 The Company retained its manufacturing facility in Ferrania, Italy, from which the Company agreed to manufacture x-ray and wet laser medical imaging film for Kodak for a minimum of two years under a supply agreement which became effective on November 30, 1998 (the Ferrania Supply Agreement). Under the terms of the Asset Purchase Agreement, Kodak is obligated to make a cash payment to the Company of up to $25.0 million no later than the date the Ferrania Supply Agreement terminates. Under a separate supply agreement, Kodak will supply document imaging products to the Company from its White City, Oregon manufacturing facility for up to five years. Principal products included in the medical imaging business were: DryView(TM) laser imaging systems and film, wet laser imaging systems and film, Imation chest system, Trimax(TM) x-ray films, conventional x-ray film processing systems and film, and Cemax-Icon digital picture-archiving and communication systems (PACS) products. 7. COMPREHENSIVE INCOME Comprehensive income (loss) for the three month periods ended March 31, 1999 and 1998 was as follows: Three Months Ended March 31, (In millions) 1999 1998 ------ ------ Net income (loss) $ 6.1 $ 2.0 Changes in cumulative translation adjustments (6.1) (4.0) ------ ------ Comprehensive income (loss) $ -- $ (2.0) ====== ====== 8. SEGMENT INFORMATION The Company's current businesses are organized, managed and internally reported as three segments differentiated primarily by their products and services, but also by the markets they serve. These segments, whose results are shown below, are Data Storage and Information Management, providing removable data storage media for use in the mobile and desktop, network and enterprise data center markets; Product Technologies, whose principle products include printing and color proofing systems, printing films and plates for the graphic arts marketplace, private label film for the amateur photographic retail market, and carbonless paper, such as multi-part business forms; and Digital Solutions and Services, which provides 24-hour technical service and support for equipment sold by the Company as well as by other third party equipment vendors, digital workflow solutions principally in the areas of color and data management, and document imaging products for large format engineering documentation. 9 The Company also owned and managed a fourth segment, Medical Imaging, which was sold to Kodak effective November 30, 1998 (see Note 6 to the Consolidated Financial Statements). Results for the medical imaging segment are included in the Divested Businesses, Corporate, Other and Unallocated segment information below through the date of sale. Effective with the sale of the medical imaging business to Kodak, the Company entered into a supply agreement with Kodak to supply certain medical imaging film products. The activity related to the ongoing supply agreement is included in the Product Technologies business segment.

Total assets by segment have not changed materially from December 31, 1998. 9. DERIVATIVES AND HEDGING In June of 1998 the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 133, ACCOUNTING FOR DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES. This standard establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments and hedging activities. The Company must adopt this standard no later than January 1, 2000. Adopting this standard would not have a material impact on the financial statements of the Company. **** PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, the Company's independent accountants, has performed a review of the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements included herein and their report thereon accompanies this filing. 10 REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of Imation Corp.: We have reviewed the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet of Imation Corp. (the "Company") as of March 31, 1999, and the related consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended March 31, 1999 and 1998 and condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 1999 and 1998. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. We conducted our reviews in accordance with standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures to financial data and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion. Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the accompanying consolidated financial statements for them to be in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. We have previously audited, in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 1998, and the related consolidated statements of operations, shareholders' equity and cash flows for the year then ended (not presented herein); and in our report dated February 8, 1999, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 1998, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived. /s/ PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP Minneapolis, Minnesota May 4, 1999 11 IMATION CORP. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS GENERAL OVERVIEW Imation Corp. (the Company) began operations as an independent, publicly held company on July 1, 1996 when Minnesota Mining and Manufacturing Company (3M) spun off substantially all of the businesses previously operated within its data storage and imaging systems groups. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS COMPARISON OF THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1999 AND 1998 Net revenues for the first quarter of 1999 were $402.0 million, a decrease of $117.4 million from the same period in 1998. The first quarter of 1998 included $157.1 million related to businesses that were subsequently sold. Excluding these revenues from 1998 and the Kodak supply agreement revenues from 1999 (see Note 6 to the Consolidated Financial Statements), comparable total revenues grew 2.5 percent. Data Storage revenues grew 23.7 percent, with growth in all three of its major customer markets: mobile and desktop, network and enterprise data center. Product Technologies revenues increased 10.3 percent driven by the Kodak supply agreement revenues. Excluding the supply agreement, Product Technologies revenues declined driven primarily by the plates and film business. Digital Solutions and Services revenues declined by $10.9 million driven by the anticipated slowing of the Company's more mature Document Imaging business. Gross profit in the first quarter of 1999 was $116.6 million, or 29.0 percent of revenues, compared with the first quarter of 1998 which was $171.8 million, or 33.1 percent of revenues. The revenue percentage decline from last year was primarily due to lower gross margins on the Kodak supply agreement, product mix changes and the sale of the medical imaging business, which generally had higher gross profit margins. Improved volume growth and productivity improvements more than off-set the negative effects of continuing price erosion. Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses were $85.2 million, or 21.2 percent of revenues. SG&A expenses in the first quarter of 1998 were $124.1 million, or 23.9 percent of revenues. The $51.5 million reduction in SG&A reflects not only the impact of the Company's restructuring program and sale of the medical imaging businesses, but also a $3.5 million gain from the sale of its facility in Bracknell, United Kingdom. Research and development (R&D) costs totaled $21.8 million, or 5.4 percent of revenues in the first quarter of 1999, down $15.7 million from the same period in 1998. This decline reflects the restructuring, sale of medical imaging, and refocusing of R&D resources. Management continues to expect ongoing R&D investment as a percent of total revenues to range from 5-7% during the next several years. 12 Operating income for the first quarter of 1999 was $9.6 million compared to $10.2 million for the same period last year. While operating income decreased $0.6 million, the operating income margin as a percentage of revenues grew from 2.0 percent to 2.4 percent in the current year as a result of the items discussed above. First quarter 1999 interest expense was $0.8 million, compared to $5.2 million in the same quarter last year. Proceeds from the sale of the medical imaging business were utilized to reduce debt. The net other income and expense in the first quarter of 1999 totaled $1.9 million of income, primarily interest earned on cash invested. In the same period of 1998, net other income and expense was $1.5 million of expense. The tax rate for the quarter was 43 percent, an improvement of 500 basis points from 1998's full-year tax rate. This reflects benefits from the divestiture of medical imaging, as well as improved financial performance. We currently anticipate that 43 percent will be the tax rate for the full year. Net income in the first quarter of 1999 was $6.1 million, or $0.16 per basic and diluted share, compared with $2.0 million, or $0.05 per basic and diluted share, for the same period in 1998 for the reasons discussed above. FINANCIAL POSITION The Company had 3.1 months of inventory on hand at March 31, 1999, compared with 3.2 at December 31, 1998. The accounts receivable days sales outstanding (DSO) was 77 days at March 31, 1999, down from 80 days at December 31, 1998. The book value of property, plant and equipment at March 31, 1999 was $225.5, a decrease of $8.3 million from the December 31, 1998. Approximately $6 million of this decline related to the sale of the land and building in Bracknell, U.K. LIQUIDITY Cash provided by operating activities was $3.4 million during the three months ended March 31, 1999, compared with $10.7 million during the same period in 1998. Depreciation and amortization was $23.5 million in the first three months of 1999, down from $30.8 million in 1998 because of the sale of medical imaging assets to Kodak in the fourth quarter of 1998 (see note 6 to the Consolidated Financial Statements). Changes in inventory, accounts receivable, and accounts payable (adjusted for currency impact) provided $8.5 million in cash during the first quarter of 1999 compared to a $4.8 million use of cash in the first quarter of 1998. Other working capital changes used $13.5 million of cash, primarily due to payments related to restructuring and transitional services associated with the sale of the medical imaging businesses. Other adjustments to reconcile net income to net cash provided by operating activity in first quarter of 1999 include a $3.5 million gain on the sale of land and building and a $7.1 million reclassification of an unearned deposit related to a supply agreement with Kodak from long term to current. For the three months ended March 31, 1999, the Company made cash payments of $14.2 million associated with its restructuring. The Company expects to incur future net cash payments related to restructuring of approximately $29.7 million. 13 Cash provided by investing activities was $135.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 1999 compared with cash used of $46.2 million in the comparable period of 1998. Cash restrictions on $143 million of proceeds related to the sale of the medical imaging business were removed during the first quarter of 1999 as the sale of the European components of that business was completed. The remaining $7.6 million of cash used by investing activities is down from last year's $46.2 million because capitalized software was not material in the first three months of 1999, while $29.2 million was capitalized in the same period in 1998. These expenditures related primarily to the design, implementation and testing of the Company's new IT systems. Amortization of these costs began during the second quarter of 1998. Additionally, proceeds totaling $9.6 million from the sale of the Bracknell, United Kingdom land and building helped offset other cash used in investing activities. Capital expenditures of $18.9 million for the first three months of 1999 included approximately $7 million related to the repurchase of an administrative building previously under a synthetic lease. Adjusted for this, capital spending decreased from the same period in 1998 which totaled $18.6 million reflecting the sale of the Medical Imaging business. Net financing activities during the first quarter of 1999 used cash of $73.8 million compared with a $10.0 million provision of cash in the comparable 1998 period. The 1999 amount includes $41.9 million in expenditures for the repurchase of approximately 2.7 million shares of the Company's common stock and the repayment of $31.0 million of debt. On December 31, 1998, the Company entered into a three-year $175.0 million Loan and Security Agreement (the Loan Agreement) with a group of banks. The Loan Agreement provides for a revolving credit, including letters of credit, with borrowing availability based on eligible accounts receivable, inventories and manufacturing machinery and equipment not to exceed $175.0 million. 14 Borrowing availability at March 31, 1999 was $142.2 million. The Loan Agreement is collateralized by substantially all the domestic assets of the Company, excluding the land and buildings at the Company's headquarters in Oakdale, Minnesota, and a pledge of 65 percent of the stock of certain of the Company's foreign subsidiaries. Covenants include maintenance of a minimum tangible net worth and borrowing base availability, with certain restrictions on the incurrence of additional indebtedness, sale of assets, mergers and consolidation, transactions with affiliates, creation of liens, and certain other matters. At March 31, 1999, the Company's ratio of total debt to total capital was 3.0% as compared to 7.1% at December 31, 1998. The Company expects that cash and equivalents, together with cash flow from operations and availability of borrowings under its current and future sources of available financing will provide sufficient liquidity to operate the Company. YEAR 2000 COMPLIANCE Introduction (Phases) In preparation for the change in the millennium, the Company's Year 2000 (Y2K) Operating Team has instituted a seven-phase plan to address the Company's Y2K readiness in the following areas: internal IT systems, non-IT systems (including plants, facilities, process control and building control equipment, communications systems, laboratory and test equipment, etc.), the Company's products, and external business relationships. The seven phases of the plan are: (1) perform inventory of all items potentially subject to Y2K effect and prioritize on the basis of business criticality; (2) develop a plan for assessing Y2K compliance of all inventoried items; (3) determine whether inventoried items are Y2K compliant; (4) design a remediation strategy (e.g., remediate, replace, retire, etc.) for non-compliant inventoried items and develop contingency plans; (5) develop and test remediation solutions; (6) implement remediation solutions; and (7) document verification of compliance of remediated solutions. Inventories of each area have been completed and determinations have been made regarding Y2K impact. Inventoried items have been prioritized, assessment plans have been completed and remediation solutions are being developed. Field implementation of remediation solutions for critical Y2K items is targeted for completion by the end of June 1999, with remediation of least critical items expected to be completed by the end of September 1999. Verification of compliance of remediated solutions is planned to occur contemporaneously with the field installation of solutions. Contingency plans are being developed to address potential Y2K related failures that could affect critical Company operations. IT System A significant portion of the Company's new global IT infrastructure has been completed with the remaining expected to be completed by September 1999. The Company required a new IT system after the Company's spin-off from 3M and a significant factor in the Company's selection of this system was its Y2K compliance status. The Company believes that the new system will significantly reduce the likelihood of Y2K-related interruptions to normal operations. The Company must, however, test all system software applications added to the new IT system and custom code written for the system, as well as certain other systems not replaced by the new global IT infrastructure, 15 for Y2K compliance. Although the Company does not foresee a material adverse effect on its business, results of operations, or financial position related to Y2K issues and the Company's IT system, risk is not eliminated until the system is fully installed, tested, and all non-compliant code identified, corrected and re-verified. Non-IT Systems The Company is assessing its non-IT systems in its plants and facilities on a world-wide basis for issues of Y2K compliance. This assessment includes reviewing not only the Company's manufacturing process control equipment, but also systems that control temperature, utility equipment, telephone systems, and security systems. Laboratory and test equipment are also being evaluated. While the Company does not believe that it is likely to experience material adverse effects related to Y2K in the area of non-IT systems, failure to identify all Y2K vulnerable controls or equipment, or failure to remediate them in a timely way, could result in the inability of a particular plant or facility to manufacture or test product or conduct business in the ordinary course. Products The majority of Company products do not have electronic date functionality. Those products that do have electronic date functionality have been assessed and remediation strategies are being implemented to address any issues of Y2K non-compliance. The Company believes it has sufficient resources dedicated to product compliance activities and it does not foresee any material adverse impact on the Company's business, results of operations, or financial position due to Y2K product issues. However, there remains the possibility that the Company could fail to identify all susceptible products or be unable to implement all field remediations for which it is responsible prior to January 1, 2000. Third Parties Y2K preparedness of third parties with whom the Company does business could impact the Company's ability to deliver products and services in the new millennium. This constitutes an area of potentially significant risk to the Company's business, results of operations, and financial position. Suppliers of critical raw materials and providers of utility and communication services could particularly impair the Company's ability to conduct business in the ordinary course if those third parties fail to successfully assess and remediate their own products and internal operations. While third party risk related to the Y2K problem is difficult to quantify or control, the Company is taking steps in an effort to try to minimize the potential adverse effect of Y2K problems that could arise based on Company's external business relationships. Y2K surveys have been sent to the Company's suppliers asking them for the Y2K compliance status of their products and internal operations. The Company is re-contacting its critical and significant suppliers and conducting Y2K phone surveys with them. At the present time, the feedback being received from the phone surveys has been favorable. The Company is developing third party contingency plans as it identifies partners evidencing inadequate Y2K preparations. Contingency plans may include plans to accumulate extra inventory and/or establish alternative sources of supply and channels of distribution. However, even with diligent 16 planning, third party providers pose an uncertain risk which cannot be entirely eliminated. Expenditures Aside from expenditures made by the Company in implementing its new corporate IT system, the Company has not incurred any significant Y2K related costs to date. Based on current information and resources, the Company estimates that the total cost of its Y2K program could approach $6 million, excluding costs already anticipated for completion of the Company's IT system. These costs are primarily in the non-IT systems area. This estimate is subject to change as the Company moves through final phases of its Y2K plan. While the Company's management does not believe that the Company's Y2K costs will have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, results of operations, or financial position, Y2K costs could increase if currently unknown Y2K deficiencies are discovered in Company IT systems, non-IT systems or products, or with external business partners. Summary Due to the uncertain nature of the Y2K problem, the Company's management cannot state with certainty whether Y2K issues will have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, results of operations, or financial position. The Company believes it is taking reasonable steps to address the Y2K problem, but the Y2K problem is a very complex one. If several of Company's external business partners should fail to implement successful Y2K programs, or if the Company should fail to identify Y2K deficiencies in critical IT and non-IT systems, or if Company's product remediations should fail to be implemented in the field by January 1, 2000, Y2K problems could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, results of operations, or financial position. The projected expenditures and dates contained in this discussion are based on the Company's best estimates and are derived from assumptions about future events, including the availability of resources and other factors. The Company does not guarantee that these estimates will be achieved and results may vary due to uncertainties. The forward-looking statements contained in this section under the heading "Year 2000 Compliance" should be read in conjunction with the Company's disclosure below under the heading "Forward-Looking Statements." EURO CONVERSION STATUS On January 1, 1999, eleven of the fifteen member countries of the European Union adopted the Euro as their new common currency. The Euro trades on currency exchanges and is used for non-cash transactions. Effective January 1, 2002 and through July 1, 2002 the participating countries will begin using the Euro as the legal tender and will withdraw all legacy currencies. The Euro conversion may involve transparency of the market (i.e. with a common currency the prices in different countries are more readily comparable) which may lead to increased competition between countries and 17 potential erosion of margins. The Company is reviewing its marketing strategies to address possible increased competition and is also reviewing and testing its software compatibility with the Euro conversion. The Company will continue to review the impact of the conversion to the Euro, however, the Company does not expect that the Euro conversion will have a material impact on the Company's financial position and results of operations. RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. This standard establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments and hedging activities. The Company must adopt this standard no later than January 1, 2000. Adopting this standard would not have a material impact on the financial statements of the company. SALE OF MEDICAL IMAGING BUSINESS As discussed in Note 6 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, on November 30, 1998, the Company sold its worldwide medical imaging business to Kodak. The Company, however, retained its manufacturing facility in Ferrania, Italy, from which the Company agreed to manufacture x-ray and wet laser medical imaging film for Kodak for a minimum of two years under a supply agreement which became effective on November 30, 1998. Under the terms of the Asset Purchase Agreement, Kodak is obligated to make a cash payment to the Company of up to $25.0 million no later than the date the Ferrania Supply Agreement terminates. Under terms of the agreement with Kodak, the Company is prohibited from selling medical imaging products to third parties other than Kodak during the duration of and subsequent to the termination of the supply agreement. As a result, the Company cannot reasonably predict the ultimate utilization of the Ferrania facility upon termination of the supply agreement. The Company cannot predict with certainty what, if any, costs may result upon termination of the supply agreement, but believes that such costs could be significant. Transition Services and Distribution Agreements - Associated with the Company's sale of its medical imaging business to Kodak on November 30, 1998, the Company receives reimbursement from Kodak for certain services under transition services and distribution agreements that the Company has agreed to provide Kodak while Kodak integrates the medical imaging businesses into its accounting and information systems. These include information technology, logistics, finance, telecommunications, office space, human resources and site services. The Company has agreed to provide such services under the transition services agreement for a period of up to two years. Kodak, at its option, may terminate the transition services agreement with respect to individual categories of service upon prior notice, the length of which varies according to the nature of the service. As a result, the Company can not project with certainty the duration of and expected cost reimbursements associated with the transition services and distribution agreements, or the potential impact if the transition services agreement is terminated. 18 FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS Certain information contained in this report which does not relate to historical financial information may be deemed to constitute forward looking statements.
