This document contains, and oral statements made by our representatives from time to time may contain, forward - looking statements. Generally, forward - looking statements include information describing the offering and other actions, events, result s, strategies and expectations and are generally identifiable by use of the words "believes," "expects," "intends," "anticipates," "plans," "seeks," "estimates," "projects," "may," "will, '" '"could," "might," or "continues" or similar expressions. These statements are based on the beliefs and assumptions of HC2's management and the management of HC2's subsidiaries. Factors tha t c ould cause actual results, events and developments to differ include, without limitation, capital market conditions, the ability of HC2's subsidiaries to generate sufficient ne t i ncome and cash flows to make upstream cash distributions, trading characteristics of the HC2 common stock, the ability of HC2 and its subsidiaries to identify any suitable future acqu isi tion opportunities, efficiencies/cost avoidance, cost savings, income and margins, growth, economies of scale, combined operations, future economic performance, conditions to, and the time tab le for, completing the integration of financial reporting of acquired or target businesses, completing future acquisitions and dispositions, litigation, potential and contin gen t liabilities, management's plans, changes in regulations, taxes and the risks that may affect the performance of the operating subsidiaries of HC2 and those factors listed under the c apt ion "Risk Factors" in HC2's most recent Annual Report on Form 10 - K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10 - Q and Current Reports on Form 8 - K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Non - U.S. GAAP Measures . Management believes that certain non - U.S. GAAP financial measures may be useful in certain instances to provide additional mea ningful comparisons between current results and results in prior operating periods. HC2 uses the non - U.S. GAAP financial measures of Pro forma Net Revenue and adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“Adjusted EBITDA ”). Pro forma Net Revenue includes the as reported revenue for the comparable prior period adjusted for revenues from acquire d b usinesses, subsequent to that period’s end, made to facilitate direct comparison to the as reported revenue for the current period. Management believes that presenting Pro forma Net Revenue is important to understanding the Company’s financial performance, providing better analysis of trends in our underlying busines ses as it allows for comparability to prior period results. Management believes that Adjusted EBITDA is significant to gaining an understanding of HC2’s results as it is frequently used by the financial community to provide insight into an organization’s operating trends and facilitates comparisons between peer companies, since interest, taxes, depreciation and a mor tization can differ greatly between organizations as a result of differing capital structures and tax strategies. Adjusted EBITDA can also be a useful measure of a company’s abilit y t o service debt. Adjusted EBITDA excludes certain items that are unusual in nature or not comparable from period to period. Management provides the aforementioned information to investor s t o assist in comparisons of past, present and future operating results and to assist in highlighting the results of on - going operations. While management believes that non - U.S. GAAP measurements are useful supplemental information, such adjusted results are not intended to replace U.S. GAAP financial results and should be read in conjunction with those U. S. GAAP results. By accepting this document, each recipient agrees to and acknowledges the foregoing terms and conditions. Safe Harbor Disclaimers 17
