The amounts are derived from the income statements of Peachtree for the year ended December 31, 2013 and the nine months ended September 30, 2014 included in our Current Report on Form 8-K/A filed with the SEC on January 27, 2015. We acquired the assets of our Atlanta division on November 13, 2014. Therefore, the “Further Acquisition Adjusted EBITDA—Atlanta Division” does not reflect results of Peachtree for the period from October 1, 2014 through November 13, 2014

(2) Amount represents EBITDA for our Las Vegas division for the period from January 1, 2014 through March 31, 2014 and the year ended December 31, 2013. The amounts are derived from the income statements of LVLH for the year ended December 31, 2013 and the three months ended March 31, 2014 included in Amendment No. 4 to our Registration Statement on Form S-1 filed with the SEC on June 12, 2014.
