         Non-GAAP Financial Measures that states "free cash flow" should not be
used in a
         manner that inappropriately implies that the measure represents the
residual cash flow
         available for discretionary expenditures.
Exhibit 99.1, page 8

2.       We note that the non-GAAP measure, adjusted EBITDA, is reconciled to

         from continuing operations, earnings (loss) before tax, and operating
income. Please
         reconcile adjusted EBITDA to net earnings (net income as presented in
the statement of
         operations under GAAP) in future filings. Refer to Question 103.02 of
the Compliance

         measure.
