For purposes of calculating the ratio of earnings to fixed charges, (1) earnings is defined as income (loss) before income taxes plus fixed charges, and (2) fixed charges is defined as interest expense (including amortization of debt issuance costs and excluding losses on extinguishment of long-term debt) and one-third of rental expense (which we believe is representative of the interest component of operating lease rent expense).
