3
This presentation includes forward-looking statements as contemplated by the 1995 Private Securities Litigation Reform Act,
reflecting management’s current analysis and expectations, based on what are believed to be reasonable assumptions. The
words “estimates,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “projects,” “plans,” “intends,” “believes,” “forecasts,” or future or conditional verbs,
such as “will,” “should,” “could,” or “may,” and variations of such words or similar expressions are intended to identify
forward-looking statements.  Forward-looking statements may involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other
factors, which may cause actual results to differ materially from those projected, stated or implied, depending on many
factors, including, without limitation: our dependence on the automotive industry; further restructuring of our customers;
availability and cost of raw materials; pricing pressures and volume requirements of our customers; the ability to meet
significant increase in customer demand; increased costs negatively impacting our profitability; competition in the automotive
industry; sovereign and other risks related to our conducting operations outside the United States; foreign currency
fluctuations; our ability to achieve benefits from our joint venture operations not operated for our sole benefit; our exposure to
the uncertainty of political disruptions and increased violence in Mexico; the uncertainty of our ability to achieve expected
cost reduction savings; our dependence on certain major customers and platforms; our exposure to product liability and
warranty claims; labor conditions; our ability to attract and retain key personnel; our ability to meet customers’ needs for new
and improved products in a timely manner; our ability to select and integrate attractive business acquisitions; our legal rights
to our intellectual property portfolio; environmental and other regulations; the outcome of legal proceedings the Company is
or may become party to; volatility in our expected annual effective tax rate;  impact of our capital structure on our financial
condition and ability to obtain financing in the future; our ability to generate cash to meet our debt and other cash obligations;
our pension plans; any impairment of a significant amount of our goodwill or other intangible asset; potential conflicts of
interest between our owners and us; limitations on flexibility in operating our business contained in our debt agreements; our
exposure to natural disasters; and other risks described from time to time in the Company’s Securities and Exchange
Commission filings.  There may be other factors that may cause the company’s actual results to differ materially from those
projected in any forward-looking statement. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that Cooper Standard will meet future
results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. This paragraph is included
to provide a safe harbor for forward-looking statements, which are not generally required to be publicly revised as
circumstances change and which Cooper Standard does not intend to update.  The forward-looking statements in this
presentation are made as of the date hereof, and the Company does not assume any obligation to update, amend or clarify
them to reflect events, new information or circumstances occurring after the date hereof.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
20
EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA are measures not recognized under Generally
Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) which exclude certain non-cash and non-
recurring items.
When analyzing the company’s operating performance, investors should use
EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA in addition to, and not as alternatives for, net income
(loss), operating income, or any other performance measure derived in accordance
with GAAP, or as an alternative to cash flow from operating activities as a measure
of the company’s performance. EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA have limitations as
analytical
tools
and
should
not
be
considered
in
isolation
or
as
substitutes
for
analysis
of
the
company’s
results
of
operations
as
reported
under
GAAP.
Other
companies may report EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA differently and therefore
Cooper Standard’s results may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures
of other companies.
