PROPRIETARY AXALTA COATING SYSTEMS 57 Adjusted EBITDA Reconciliation (cont’d) A. During the Successor years ended December 31, 2013 and 2015, we recorded a non-cash fair value adjustment associated with our acquisition accounting for inventories. These amounts increased cost of goods sold by $1 million and $104 million, respectively. B. In connection with the Acquisition, we incurred $28 million of merger and acquisition costs during the Successor year ended December 31, 2013. These costs consisted primarily of investment banking, legal and other professional advisory services costs. C. On August 30, 2012, we signed a debt commitment letter, which included the Bridge Facility. Upon the issuance of the Senior Notes and the entry into the Senior Secured Credit Facilities, the commitments under the Bridge Facility terminated. Commitment fees related to the Bridge Facility of $21 million and associated fees of $4 million were expensed upon the payment and termination of the Bridge Facility. In connection with the amendment to the Senior Secured Credit Facilities in February 2014, we recognized $3 million of costs. In addition to the credit facility amendment, we also incurred $3 million of losses on extinguishment of debt during both the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively, which resulted directly from the pro-rata write offs of unamortized deferred financing costs and original issue discounts associated with the pay-downs of $100 million of principal on the New Dollar Term Loan in each year. D. Eliminates foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the remeasurement of assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies, including a $19 million loss related to the Acquisition date settlement of a foreign currency contract used to hedge the variability of Euro-based financing for the Successor year ended December 31, 2013. E. For the Successor years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, eliminates the non-service cost components of employee benefit costs. Additionally, we deducted a pension curtailment gain of $7 million recorded during the year ended December 31, 2014. For the Predecessor period January 1, 2013 through January 31, 2013 and the Predecessor years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, eliminates (1) all U.S. pension and other long-term employee benefit costs that were not assumed as part of the Acquisition and (2) the non-service cost component of the pension and other long-term employee benefit costs. F. Represents expenses primarily related to employee termination benefits and other employee-related costs, including our initiative to improve the overall cost structure within the European region. Termination benefits include the costs associated with our headcount initiatives for establishment of new roles and elimination of old roles and other costs associated with cost saving opportunities that were related our Axalta Way cost savings initiatives in 2015. G. Represents fees paid to consultants, advisors, and other third-party professional organizations for professional services. Amounts incurred during 2015 primarily relate to our Axalta Way cost savings initiatives. Amounts incurred during the Successor years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 relate to services rendered in conjunction with our transition from DuPont to a standalone entity. H. Represents charges associated with the transition from DuPont to a standalone entity, including branding and marketing, information technology related costs, and facility transition costs. I. Represents costs associated with the offering of our common shares in the Carlyle Offerings during 2015 and costs associated with the IPO, including a $13 million pre-tax charge associated with the termination of the management agreement with Carlyle Investment Management, L.L.C., an affiliate of Carlyle, upon the completion of the IPO during 2014.
PROPRIETARY AXALTA COATING SYSTEMS 58 Adjusted EBITDA Reconciliation (cont’d) J. Represents costs associated with stock-based compensation, including $8 million of expense during 2015 attributable to the accelerated vesting of all issued and outstanding stock options issued under the 2013 Plan. K. Represents costs for certain unusual or non-operational (gains) and losses, including a $5 million gain resulting from the acquisition of a controlling interest in our previously held equity method investee during 2015, equity investee dividends, indemnity losses (gains) associated with the Acquisition, losses (gains) on sale and disposal of property, plant and equipment, and losses (gains) on foreign currency derivative instruments. L. Represents the payment of dividends to our joint venture partners by our consolidated entities that are not wholly owned. M. Pursuant to Axalta’s management agreement with Carlyle Investment for management and financial advisory services and oversight provided to Axalta and its subsidiaries, Axalta was required to pay an annual management fee of $3 million and out-of-pocket expenses. This agreement terminated upon completion of the IPO in November 2014. N. As a result of the currency devaluation in Venezuela, we evaluated the carrying values of our long-lived assets for impairment and recorded an impairment charge relating to a real estate investment of $31 million during 2015. O. Represents (1) the add-back of corporate allocations from DuPont to DPC for the usage of DuPont’s facilities, functions and services; costs for administrative functions and services performed on behalf of DPC by centralized staff groups within DuPont; a portion of DuPont’s general corporate expenses; and certain pension and other long-term employee benefit costs, in each case because we believe these costs are not indicative of costs we would have incurred as a standalone company net, of (2) estimated standalone costs based on a corporate function resource analysis that included a standalone executive office, the costs associated with supporting a standalone information technology infrastructure, corporate functions such as legal, finance, treasury, procurement and human resources and certain costs related to facilities management. This resource analysis included anticipated headcount and the associated overhead costs of running these functions effectively as a standalone company of our size and complexity. This estimate is provided for additional information and analysis only, as we believe that it facilitates enhanced comparability between Predecessor and Successor periods. It represents the difference between the costs that were allocated to our predecessor by its parent and the costs that we believe would be incurred if it operated as a standalone entity. This estimate is not intended to represent a pro forma adjustment presented within the guidance of Article 11 of Regulation S-X. Although we believe this estimate is reasonable, actual results may have differed from this estimate, and any difference may be material.
