Earnings Per Share
2.   Earnings Per Share
 
The computation of basic and diluted earnings per share ("EPS") is based on the Company's net income available to common stockholders divided by the basic weighted average number of common shares and diluted weighted average number of common shares, respectively.
 
The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted EPS (in millions, except per share data):
 
 
The computations of diluted EPS do not include 2 million and 3 million stock options and stock-settled stock appreciation rights ("SSARs") for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, as the effect of their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive to EPS. In addition, the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 exclude approximately 350,000 performance-based stock units ("PSUs") as the Company had not met the required performance metrics as of June 30, 2011 (see Note 13—Stock-Based Compensation for further details). The computations of diluted EPS for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 do not include 4 million stock options and SSARs as the effect of their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive to EPS.

During the quarterly periods ended March 31 and June 30, 2011, the Company paid cash dividends of $0.15 per share ($53 million in the aggregate). During the quarterly periods ended March 31 and June 30, 2010, the Company paid cash dividends of $0.12 per share ($44 million in the aggregate).
