 Adjusted Diluted EPS is a non   
 -GAAP financial measure         
 calculated by excluding from    
 operating revenues, operating   
 expenses and equity in net      
 income of affiliates certain    
 significant items that are non   
 -operational or non-recurring   
 in nature, including            
 dispositions. Management        
 believes that this measure      
 provides relevant and useful    
 information to investors and    
 other users of our financial    
 data in evaluating the          
 effectiveness of our            
 operations and underlying       
 business trends. Adjusted       
 Diluted EPS should be           
 considered in addition to, but   
 not as a substitute for, other   
 measures of financial           
 performance reported in         
 accordance with GAAP. Our       
 calculation of Adjusted         
 Diluted EPS, as presented, may   
 differ from similarly titled    
 measures reported by other
