Diluted weighted average shares	68,569	68,315	68,411	69,939

The following awards were not included in the computation of diluted EPS because the impact of applying the treasury stock method was antidilutive or because certain conditions have not been met with respect to the Company's performance and market-based awards.

Market-based	387	167	416	112
Total stock-based awards excluded from diluted EPS	2,830	1,417	2,662	1,312

The Company has the intent and ability to settle the principal portion of its Notes in cash, and as such, has applied the treasury stock method, which has resulted in all underlying convertible shares being anti-dilutive as the Company's average stock price in the current quarter is less than the conversion price.
