(x)  The ratio of earnings to fixed charges is computed by dividing earnings by fixed charges. In computing the ratio of earnings to fixed charges: (a) earnings consist of (loss) income before discontinued operations plus distributed income of equity investees and fixed charges (excluding capitalized interest) and (b) fixed charges consist of interest expense including amortization of debt discounts and issuance costs (including capitalized interest) and the estimated portion of rents payable by us representing interest.
(y)  The ratio of earnings to combined fixed charges and preferred stock dividends is computed by dividing earnings by the total of fixed charges and preferred stock dividends. In computing the ratio of earnings to combined fixed charges and preferred stock dividends: (a) earnings consist of (loss) income before discontinued operations plus distributed income of equity investees and fixed charges (excluding capitalized interest), (b) fixed charges consist of interest expense including amortization of debt discounts and issuance costs (including capitalized interest) and the estimated portion of rents payable by us representing interest; and (c) preferred stock dividends consists of preferred stock dividends.
(z)  During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2016 and 2013, earnings were insufficient to cover fixed charges and preferred stock dividends by $6.4 million and $10.8 million, respectively.
