Situation Overview Process Update Since 1/28/07 Merger Announcement Project Honor 2 On January 28, 2007, Loyal announced that it had agreed to be acquired for $60.50 per share Morgan Stanley and Merrill Lynch subsequently initiated a 45-day “go shop” process in which 67 potential investors were contacted, but no superior proposal was submitted On January 30 and February 2, two class action lawsuits were filed and later consolidated On February 5, Select Equity Group submitted a letter to the independent members of the board indicating that it would not support a transaction at $60.50 per share Select made the letter public on February 21 Select, which owned approximately 7% of the outstanding shares at the time, subsequently increased its ownership stake to approximately 10% On March 2, T. Rowe Price (~8% stake) filed a 13D expressing their opposition to the transaction On March 15, BlackRock (~2% stake) published a letter to the Board of Directors indicating that they would not support the transaction Over a period of several weeks beginning on March 28, Special Committee members Dave Wilson and Jim McGuire, along with CEO Doug Becker, began meeting with investors to review the transaction rationale and garner investor support On April 26, KKR and Goldman Sachs announced the $8Bn buyout of Harman International The deal offered existing investors the opportunity to rollover a portion of their investment Morgan Stanley contacted representatives of the Investor Group and suggested a similar structure, which the Investor Group stated they would not consider On June 1, the Investor Group submitted a revised offer for $62.00 cash per share through a tender offer followed by a back-end merger Conditioned on all directors not affiliated with the Investor Group entering into agreement to tender all of their shares

Situation Overview Representative Feedback from “Go Shop” Process Project Honor 3 “Cannot compete on price; negotiated a great transaction; good luck; took a look and respectfully think that what was obtained was not something we can compete with” “Interested in taking a look; heard about no matching right and low breakup fee” "Unlikely we would rally something and top them in 45 days” "Price looks rich and not likely we would do but will take a hard look” "Full price, not a buyer at that price, but interested in sector” "Wouldn't be able to get there on valuation” “Would not approach it alone, but if a group is formed would be willing to take a look as a minority investor”

Review of Loyal Operating Outlook Research Commentary Project Honor Equity research analysts’ opinions of Loyal differ significantly Several analysts anticipate a pullback in share price if the proposed $60.50 transaction is not approved by shareholders Expected decrease between 5% to 40%, implying “broken deal” trading values of $42 - $56 per share 12 Broker Date Price Target / Rating Commentary Stifel Nicolaus 3/2/2007 $62 ($62 Before) / Buy “We would assign the following probabilities to the following scenarios; 60% that the deal goes through as is, 25% that the current price is sweetened by the buyout group, 10% that a higher bid emerges and 5% that no deal is consummatedAssuming the following prices - $60.50 with current deal, $61.50 sweetened price, $62.50 higher bid, and $58 under no deal - the implied value is about $60.80.” Signal Hill 3/19/2007 NA (NA Before) / Hold “In fact, we believe that if the deal is voted down, shareholders would likely be left with a $110 million break - up bill (per the proxy), no Doug Becker and an asset trading well below current levels we would expect the st ock, largely in the hands of arbitrageurs, to drop 20% - 40% from current levels.” Robert W. Baird 3/20/2007 $60 ($60 Before) / Neutral “We are maintaining our Neutral rating and $60 price target, which is based on the buyout offer of $60.50 and implied 30. 4x our 2007 EPS estimate of $1.99…If shareholders were to reject the offer, the stock price could decrease to previous levels or below.” Bear Stearns 4/9/2007 NA (NA Before) / NA “While holders representing 17% of common stock have indicated their intenti on to vote against the deal, given the $3 - $8 anticipated drop in share price that would likely occur, the alternative is not so pleasant should the deal fall through, we would expect the stock to fall 5 - 10% , which we would view as a highly attractive buying opportunity.” Lehman Brothers 4/27/2007 $62 ($53 Before) / Equal weight “the proposed $60.50 buyout offer, which we view as too low. Assigning a 20x multiple to LAUR’s 2010 EPS goal of $5.00 implies a $100 price for LAUR shares in less than 4 year simplied a present value in the low $70s As such, we recommend that investors consider not supporting the proposed transaction unless management offers a materially higher price.”
