2 Safe Harbor Statement The following information contains, or may be deemed to contain, forward-looking statements (as defined in the U.S. Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995). The words believe,
expect, anticipate, intend, estimate and other expressions that are predictions of or indicate future events and trends and that do not relate to historical matters identify forward-looking statements.
You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking
statements. Although forward-looking statements reflect managements good faith beliefs, reliance should not be placed on forward-looking statements because they involve known and unknown risks,
uncertainties and other factors, which may cause the actual results, performance or
achievements to differ materially from anticipated future results,
performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date the statements are made. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking
statement, whether as a result of new information, future events, changed circumstances
or otherwise. These forward-looking statements are subject to
numerous risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to: our participation in markets that are competitive; the highly cyclical industries in which certain of our end users operate; the failure of markets outside North America to
increase
adoption of fully-automatic transmissions; risks related to our substantial indebtedness; the concentration of our net sales in our top five customers and the loss of any one of these; future reductions or changes in government subsidies and other external
factors impacting demand for hybrid vehicles; U.S. defense spending; general economic
and industry conditions; the discovery of defects in our products,
resulting in delays in new model launches, recall campaigns and/or increased warranty costs and reduction in future sales or damage to our brand and reputation; our ability to prepare for, respond to and successfully achieve our objectives
relating to technological and market developments and changing customer needs; risks
associated with our international operations; and
labor strikes, work stoppages or similar labor disputes, which could significantly disrupt our operations or those of our principal customers. Allison Transmission cannot assure you that the assumptions made in preparing any of the forward-looking statements will prove
accurate or that any long-term financial goals will be realized. All
forward-looking statements included in this presentation speak only
as of the date made, and Allison Transmission undertakes no obligation to update or
revise publicly any such forward-looking statements, whether as a
result of new information, future events, or otherwise.

Actual results may vary significantly from these
statements. Allison Transmissions business is subject to numerous

3 Non-GAAP Financial Information We use Adjusted net income, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA excluding technology-related license expenses, Adjusted EBITDA
margin, Adjusted EBITDA margin excluding technology-related license expenses,
adjusted free cash flow and free cash flow to evaluate our performance
relative to that of our peers. In addition, the Senior Secured Credit Facility has certain covenants that incorporate Adjusted EBITDA. However, Adjusted net income, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA excluding technology-related license expenses, Adjusted
EBITDA margin, Adjusted EBITDA margin excluding technology-related license
expenses, adjusted free cash flow and free cash flow are not measurements
of financial performance under GAAP, and these metrics may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. Adjusted net income is calculated as the sum of net income, interest expense, net, income tax expense (benefit), trade name
impairment and amortization of intangible assets, less cash interest, net
and cash income taxes, and adjusted for certain non-recurring items.
Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as the sum of Adjusted net income, cash interest, net, cash income taxes, depreciation of property, plant and equipment and other adjustments as defined by the Senior Secured Credit Facility and as further described below. Adjusted
EBITDA excluding technology-related license expenses is calculated as Adjusted
EBITDA less technology-related license expenses. Adjusted EBITDA
margin is calculated as Adjusted EBITDA divided by net sales. Adjusted EBITDA margin excluding technology-related license expenses is calculated as Adjusted EBITDA excluding technology-related license expenses divided by net sales. Free cash flow is
calculated as net cash provided by operating activities less capital
expenditures. Adjusted free cash flow is free cash flow adjusted for non- recurring items. We use Adjusted net income to measure our overall profitability because it better reflects our cash flow generation by capturing the actual cash interest paid and cash taxes paid rather than our interest expense and tax expense as calculated under GAAP and excludes the impact of the non-cash annual amortization of certain intangible assets that were created at the time of the Acquisition Transaction. We use
Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA excluding technology-related license
expenses, Adjusted EBITDA margin and Adjusted EBITDA margin excluding
technology-related license expenses to evaluate and control our cash operating costs and to measure our operating profitability. We use adjusted free cash flow and free cash flow to evaluate the amount of cash generated by the business that, after the capital
investment needed to maintain and grow our business, can be used for strategic
opportunities, including investing in our business and strengthening our
balance sheet. We believe the presentation of Adjusted net income, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA excluding technology-related license expenses, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted EBITDA margin excluding technology-related license expenses
and adjusted free cash flow enhances our investors' overall understanding
of the financial performance and cash flow of our business. You should not
consider Adjusted net income, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA excluding technology-related license expenses, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted EBITDA margin excluding technology-related license expenses, adjusted free cash flow and free cash flow as an
alternative
to net income, determined in accordance with GAAP, as an indicator of operating performance, or as an alternative to net cash provided by operating activities, determined in accordance with GAAP, as an indicator of Allisons cash flow.

and favorable material costs. Adjusted Net Income: the decrease was
