Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures (Unaudited)
(Dollars in millions, except per share data)
Senior management uses comparisons of adjusted net income from continuing operations attributable to PolyOne shareholders and diluted adjusted earnings per share (EPS)
from continuing operations attributable to PolyOne shareholders, excluding special items, to assess performance and facilitate comparability of results.
Senior management
believes these measures are useful to investors because they allow for comparison to PolyOne's performance in prior periods without the effect of items that, by their nature,
tend to obscure PolyOne's operating results due to the potential variability across periods based on timing, frequency and magnitude.

Seller has based any recommendations to Buyer upon information
that Seller considers reliable, but Seller makes no warranty as to any
results Buyer might obtain in Buyer’s use(s) for the Product.
Buyer must give Seller
written notice of the existence of each claim involving Product
(whether based in contract, breach of warranty, negligence, strict
liability, other tort or otherwise) within the earlier of thirty (30) days
after receipt of the quantity of Product forming the basis for the
claim or applicable shelf-life expiration, if any.

The adhesion is categorized based on adhesive failure (A) if no TPE residue is left on the substrate or cohesive
failure (C) if the failure exists in the TPE.
Apart from the degree of crystallinity, these polymers vary in their base chemistry, which dictates the surface
energy or cohesive energy density.
