For purposes of computing this ratio, “earnings” consist of income from continuing operations before income taxes and equity income, one-third of rents (deemed by Hospira to be representative of the interest factor inherent in rents), interest expense and amortization of capitalized interest.  “Fixed charges” consist of one-third of rents, interest expense and interest capitalized.
