COMPUTATION OF RATIO OF EARNINGS TO FIXED CHARGES

(in thousands, except ratio of earnings to fixed charges)

        The following table sets forth our consolidated ratios of earnings to fixed charges for the periods shown. Currently, we have no shares of preferred stock outstanding and have not paid any dividends on preferred stock in the periods shown. Therefore, the ratio of earnings to combined fixed charges and preferred stock dividends is not different from the ratio of earnings to fixed charges.
