GAAP Reconciliations – Fresh Start And Other Adjustments The Company adopted fresh start accounting and reporting effective February 1, 2010, the Fresh Start Reporting Date. The financial statements as of the Fresh Start Reporting Date will report the results of Dex One with no beginning retained earnings or accumulated deficit. Any presentation of Dex One represents the financial position and results of operations of a new reporting entity and is not comparable to prior periods presented by the Predecessor Company. The financial statements for periods ended prior to the Fresh Start Reporting Date do not include the effect of any changes in our capital structure or changes in the fair value of assets and liabilities as a result of fresh start accounting. As a result of the deferral and amortization method of revenue recognition, recognized advertising revenues reflect the amortization of advertising sales consummated in prior periods as well as in the current period. The adoption of fresh start accounting has a significant impact on the financial position and results of operations of the Company subsequent to the Fresh Start Reporting Date. Fresh start accounting precludes us from recognizing deferred revenue of $290.9 million and $546.0 million and certain deferred expenses of $62.3 million and $119.2 million during the three and five months ended June 30, 2010 associated with directories that published prior to the Fresh Start Reporting Date. Thus, our reported results for the three and five months ended June 30, 2010 are not indicative of our underlying operating and financial performance and are not comparable to any prior period presentation. Accordingly, management has provided a non-GAAP presentation of “Adjusted" and "Combined Adjusted" results for the three and six months ended June 30 2010 respectively on Schedules 3 and 4 30, 2010, respectively, 4. Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures are important indicators of our operations because they exclude items that may not be indicative of, or related to, our core operating results, and provide a better baseline for analyzing our underlying business. Adjusted results adjusts GAAP results of the Company for the three months ended June 30, 2010 to (i) eliminate the fresh start accounting impact on revenue and certain related expenses noted above and (ii) exclude cost-uplift recorded under fresh start accounting of $3.3 million and $5.1 million for the three and five months ended June 30, 2010. Combined Adjusted results ( 1) combines GAAP results of the Company for the five , j ) p y months ended June 30, 2010 and GAAP results of the Predecessor Company for the one month ended January 31, 2010 and (2) adjusts these combined amounts to (i) eliminate the fresh start accounting impact on revenue and certain related expenses noted above and (ii) exclude costuplift recorded under fresh start accounting. Deferred directory costs, such as print, paper, distribution and commissions, relate to directories that have not yet been published and have been recorded at fair value, determined as (a) the estimated billable value of the published directory less (b) the expected costs to complete the directory, plus (c) a normal profit margin. This incremental fresh start accounting adjustment to step up the recorded value of the deferred directory costs to fair value is hereby referred to as “cost-uplift.” 12

GAAP Reconciliations – Fresh Start And Other Adjustments cont’d) Cost-uplift will be amortized over the terms of the applicable directories, not to exceed twelve months. Management believes that the non-GAAP presentation of Adjusted and Combined Adjusted results will help financial statement users better understand the material impact fresh start (cont d) accounting has on the Company’s results of operations for the three and five months ended June 30, 2010 and also offers a non-GAAP normalized comparison to GAAP results of the Predecessor Company for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009. The non-GAAP Adjusted and Combined Adjusted results are reconciled to the most comparable GAAP measures. While the non-GAAP Adjusted and Combined Adjusted results exclude the effects of fresh start accounting and certain other items, such as goodwill and intangible asset impairment charges, it must be noted that the non-GAAP Adjusted and Combined Adjusted results are not strictly comparable to the Predecessor Company’s GAAP results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009 and should not be treated as such. We strongly encourage investors and stockholders to review our financial statements and publicly filed reports in their entirety and not rely on any single financial measure. 13

Revenue from the over life of a sale of such advertising is deferred when a directory is published, net of estimated sales claims, and recognized ratably the directory, which is typically 12 months. Advertising revenues also include revenues for Internet-based advertising products, including our proprietary local search site DexKnows.com and DexNet. Revenues with respect to our Internet-based advertising products that are sold with print advertising are initially deferred until the service is delivered or fulfilled and recognized ratably over the life of the contract.

As a result of identifying indicators of impairment, we performed impairment tests as of June 30, 2010 of our goodwill, definite-lived intangible assets and other long-lived assets in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 350, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other and ASC 360, Property, Plant and Equipment. The testing results of definite-lived intangible long-lived 17 3 our assets and other assets resulted in an impairment charge of $17.3 million during the three months ended June 30, 2010 associated with trade names and trademarks, technology, local customer relationships and other from our Business.com reporting unit. The testing results of our goodwill resulted in an impairment charge of $752.3 million during the three months ended June 30, 2010, which has been recorded in each of our reporting units. The Company has excluded the goodwill and intangible asset impairment charges from Adjusted Results for the three months ended June 30, 2010 and Combined Adjusted Results for the six months ended June 30, 2010. 22 Note: These schedules are preliminary and subject to change pending the Company's filing of its Form 10-Q

Additionally, liabilities are segregated between liabilities not subject to compromise and liabilities subject to compromise on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2009. The Predecessor Company's senior notes, senior discount notes and senior subordinated notes have been classified as liabilities subject to compromise at December 31, 2009 and the Predecessor Company's credit facilities have been excluded from liabilities subject to compromise at December 31, 2009. 4) In with accounting adjustment fair value conjunction our adoption of fresh start accounting, an was established to record our outstanding debt at on the Fresh Start Reporting Date. The Company was required to record our amended and restated credit facilities at a discount as a result of their fair value on the Fresh Start Reporting Date. Therefore, the carrying amount of these debt obligations is lower than the principal amount due at maturity. This fair value adjustment is amortized as an increase to interest expense over the remaining term of the respective debt agreements and does not impact future scheduled interest or principal payments. The unamortized fair value adjustment resulting from fresh start accounting was $106.4 million at June 30, 2010. 5) Net debt represents total debt less cash and cash equivalents on the respective date. Net debt – eliminating fair value discount eliminates the fair value discount as a result of fresh start accounting described in Note 4 and represents principal amounts due at maturity. Net debt as of December 31, 2009 excludes $6.1 billion of long-term debt classified as liabilities subject to compromise on the audited selected balance sheet data. 23 Note: These schedules are preliminary and subject to change pending the Company's filing of its Form 10-Q
