(A)
The term “earnings” shall be defined as pre-tax Income from Continuing Operations before income or loss from equity investees plus distributed income from equity investees. Add to pre-tax income the amount of fixed charges adjusted to exclude (a) the amount of any interest capitalized during the period and (b) preferred stock dividends which were included in such fixed charges amount but not deducted in the determination of pre-tax income.
(B)
Fixed Charges represent (a) interest, whether expensed or capitalized, (b) amortization of debt discount, premium and expense, (c) an estimate of interest implicit in rentals, and (d) preferred stock dividends, increased to reflect the pre-tax earnings requirement. There were no preferred stock dividends for any period presented.
