Exhibit 11.1

Computation of Earnings Per Share

The Company follows Financial Accounting Standards Board's Statement No. 128, "Earnings Per Share" ("SFAS 128"), codified in ASC 260, in which income for Basic Earnings Per Share ("EPS") is adjusted for dividends attributable to preferred stock and is based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted EPS is computed by using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, increased by the assumed conversion of the convertible preferred stock and the assumed conversion of stock options and restricted stock.

The components of basic and diluted earnings per share for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014 are as follows (in thousands, except share data):
