Rebranding Considerations
Three year brand license agreement allows for effective transition
Engaged Landor Associates in September 2008 to help create a comprehensive
rebranding strategy
Anticipate introduction of new brand in mid-2009
Estimate incremental expense of $100 $150 million spread over a 24 to 36-month
period from introduction of new brand
Rebranding expense will be funded by reduced royalty rate, $50 million cash
infusion and cash flow from operations

The purpose of this table is to reconcile monthly recurring revenues, a non-GAAP measure, to its closest GAAP
counterpart, revenues
The Company uses MRR to evaluate performance and believes the presentation of MRR is useful to investors
because the measure is widely used in the industry to assess the amount of recurring revenues from subscriber
fees that a home security business produces. This supplemental non-GAAP information should be viewed in
conjunction with the Companys consolidated statements of operations
MRR is calculated based on the number of subscribers at period end multiplied by the average fee per subscriber received in the last
month of the period for contracted monitoring and maintenance services.

Notes:
Revenues that are not pursuant to monthly contractual billings.

Disconnect Rate
The annual disconnect rate is a ratio. The numerator is the gross number of
customer cancellations during the period, and the denominator is the average
number of customer subscribers for the period. The
gross number of customer
cancellations is reduced for customers who cancel service at one location but
continue service at a new location, customer accounts acquired from dealers
that cancel during a specified contractual term that allows the account
to be
charged back to the dealers, and inactive sites that return to active service
during the period.
