Cautionary Language and Forward-Looking Statements
This presentation contains “forward-looking statements”
and “forward-looking information”, which may include, but is not
limited to, statements with respect to the future financial or operating performance of Dot Hill, estimated operating expenses,
Dot Hill’s future prospects and the implementation of Dot Hill’s transition strategy. Often, but not always, forward-looking
information can be identified by the use of words such as “plans”, “expects”, “is expected”, “is expecting”, “budget”,
“scheduled”, “estimates”, “forecasts”, “intends”, “anticipates”, or “believes”, or variations (including negative variations) of such
words and phrases, or state that certain actions, events or results “may”, “could”, “would”, “might”, or “will”
be taken, occur or
be achieved. The purpose of forward-looking information is to provide the reader with information about management’s
expectations and plans for Dot Hill. Readers are cautioned that forward-looking information involves known and unknown
risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause the actual results, performance or achievements of Dot Hill to be
materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking
information. Such factors include, among others, the risk that Dot Hill’s next-generation products may not achieve market
acceptance, Dot Hill’s expense reduction and resource allocation plans may not continue to have the anticipated positive
effects on Dot Hill’s financial results, the risks associated with macroeconomic factors that are outside of Dot Hill’s control, the
fact that no Dot Hill customer agreements provide for mandatory minimum purchase requirements, the risk that one or more
of Dot Hill’s OEM or other customers may cancel or reduce orders, not order as forecasted or terminate their agreements with
Dot Hill, the risk that Dot Hill’s new products may not prove to be popular, the risk that one or
more of Dot Hill’s suppliers or
subcontractors may fail to perform or may terminate their agreements with Dot Hill, unforeseen technological, intellectual
property, personnel or engineering issues, and the additional risks set forth in the Forms 10-K and 10-Q most recently filed with
the Securities and Exchange Commission by Dot Hill. Although Dot
Hill has attempted to identify statements containing
important factors that could cause actual actions, event or results to differ materially from those described in forward-looking
information, there may be other factors that cause actions, events or results to differ from those anticipated, estimated or
intended. Forward-looking information contained herein are made as of the date of this document based on the opinions and
estimates of management on the date statements containing such forward looking information are made, and Dot Hill
disclaims any obligation to update any forward-looking information, whether as a result of new information, estimates or
opinions, future events or results or otherwise. There can be no
assurance that forward-looking information will prove to be
accurate, as actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such information. Accordingly,
readers should not place undue reliance on forward looking information.

About Non-GAAP Financial Measures
About Non-GAAP Financial Measures
2
2
The Company’s non-GAAP financial measures exclude the impact of stock-based
compensation expense, intangible asset amortization, restructuring and severance
charges, legal settlement gains or losses, charges or credits for contingent consideration
adjustments, charges for impairment of goodwill and long-lived assets, contra-revenue
charges from the grant or extension of customer warrants, specific and significant
warranty claims arising from a supplier’s defective products, charges and acquisition
costs for Cloverleaf and Ciprico’s assets, and  effects of foreign currency gains or losses.
In
addition,
as
a
result
of
exiting
our
relationship
with
NetApp
on
or
about
November
30,
2010, the Company will also be presenting standalone non-GAAP revenue and gross
margin
metrics
excluding
the
historical
revenue
and
gross
margin
attributable
to
NetApp
in order to better compare revenue from its continuing business.
The Company believes
that these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information
to both management and investors that is indicative of the Company’s core operating
results and facilitates comparison of operating results across reporting periods. The
Company used these non-GAAP measures when evaluating its financial results as well as
for internal resource management, planning and forecasting purposes. These non-GAAP
measures should not be viewed in isolation from or as a substitute for the Company’s
financial results in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP
measures is attached to this presentation.
