Exhibit 12.1

RATIO OF EARNINGS TO FIXED CHARGES AND PREFERRED SHARE DIVIDENDS

Our ratio of earnings to fixed charges and our ratio of earnings to fixed charges and preferred share dividends for the periods indicated are set forth below. For purposes of calculating the ratios set forth below, earnings represent net income (loss) from our consolidated statements of operations, as adjusted for fixed charges; fixed charges represent interest expense and preferred share dividends represent income or loss allocated to preferred shares from our consolidated statements of operations.

The following table presents our ratio of earnings to fixed charges and our ratio of earnings to fixed charges and preferred share dividends for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2014 and for the five years ended December 31, 2013 (dollars in thousands):
