         Reconciliation Between Total Revenue and Organic Revenue (Unaudited)
                                    (in thousands)

    Organic revenue, as presented, is computed by comparing our reported
    revenue for the current period to revenue for the same period in the prior
    year adjusted to include revenue of acquired businesses for the pre-
    acquisition period of the prior year.  In arriving at prior-year revenue,
    we include the revenue of acquired companies and remove the revenue of
    divested companies for the prior-year periods comparable to the current-
    year periods for which the companies are included in our reported revenue.
    The resulting rate is intended to represent our organic, or non-
    acquisitive, growth or decline year-over-year, including comparable period
    growth or decline attributable to acquired companies. We believe that this
    non-GAAP financial measure provides useful information because it allows
    investors to better assess the underlying growth rate of our business,
    including the post-acquisition activity of acquired companies.  This non-
    GAAP financial measure is not used for any other purpose and should not be
    considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance
    prepared in accordance with GAAP.
