(1) | For purposes of determining the ratio of earnings to fixed charges and the ratio of combined fixed charges and preference dividends to earnings, earnings are defined as income before income taxes, plus fixed charges (excluding amortization of capitalized interest) less capitalized interest. Fixed charges consist of interest incurred (whether expensed or capitalized) and amortization of deferred financing costs. Preference dividends consist of dividends paid with respect to our outstanding preferred stock |
(2) | Net income (loss) reflect retrospective adoption of the cumulative effect of accounting changes for the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2009. |
