Certain persons quoted in certain news items are advisors to CD&R’s funds or executives, employees, directors or persons serving in similar capacities in CD&R’s funds’ portfolio companies, or other persons or organizations who have or may in the future have business or other relationships with CD&R or its funds. Such relationships and any compensation associated with them create a conflict of interest, as the relationship and/or the compensation incentivizes such person to endorse CD&R or its funds.
