The exhibits incorporated herein by reference contain certain non-GAAP financial measures.  These non-GAAP measures are provided to enhance the investors’ overall understanding of the Company’s current financial performance. Specifically, we believe the non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to both management and investors by excluding certain items that may not be indicative of our core operating results. We believe these financial measures are useful to investors in understanding certain non-GAAP information used by management in its financial and operational decision-making.  These measures should be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with GAAP, and are not a substitute for, or superior to, GAAP results.  The non-GAAP measures included in the attached press release have been reconciled to the nearest GAAP measure.
