Options to purchase 12.5 million and 7.8 million shares of common stock were outstanding at September 30, 2012, and 2011, respectively, but were not included in the computation of diluted weighted average common shares because their effect would not be dilutive. Deferred Stock Units totaling 0.4 million and zero shares of common stock were outstanding at September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, but were not included in the computation of diluted weighted average common shares because their effect would not be dilutive. In addition, we had 39.3 million and 25.0 million shares of common stock potentially outstanding at September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, related to the convertible debentures that were not dilutive.
