RATION OF EARNINGS TO FIXED CHARGES
The following table shows the ratio of earnings to fixed charges for the year ended December 31, 2006, the period from January 1, 2007 to March 15, 2007, the period from March 16, 2007 to December 31, 2007 and the years ended December 31, 2008, 2009 and 2010. We have computed these ratios by dividing earnings available for fixed charges (income before income taxes and fixed charges) by fixed charges (interest cost, amortization of debt expense, and the portion of rental expenses deemed to be representative of the interest factor in those rentals).
