</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">EBITDA means earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, while free cash
flow means cash flow from operating activities less capital expenditures plus the excess tax
benefit from stock-based compensation. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures as
internal operating metrics and for enterprise valuation purposes. Management believes these
measures are useful as analytical indicators of leverage capacity and debt servicing ability, and
uses them to measure financial performance as well as for planning purposes. However, they should
not be considered as alternatives to net income, cash flow from operating activities or any other
items calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP, or as an indicator of operating performance. The
definitions of EBITDA and free cash flow used here may differ from those used by other companies.

pricing pressures and other competitive factors, and levels of capital spending in certain
industries &#150; all of which could have a material impact on order rates and IDEX&#146;s results,
particularly in light of the low levels of order backlogs it typically maintains; its ability to
make acquisitions and to integrate and operate acquired businesses on a profitable basis; the
relationship of the U.S. dollar to other currencies and its impact on pricing and cost
competitiveness; political and economic conditions in foreign countries in which the company
operates; interest rates; capacity utilization and the effect this has on costs; labor markets;
market conditions and material costs; and developments with respect to contingencies, such as
litigation and environmental matters. The forward-looking statements included here are only made as
