The ratios of earnings to fixed charges is computed by dividing earnings by fixed charges. For the purpose of calculating the ratios, the earnings have been calculated by adding fixed charges to income from continuing operations before adjustment for noncontrolling interests plus distributions from unconsolidated joint ventures, excluding gains or losses from sale of property and gains and losses on equity investment. With respect to Reckson Operating Partnership, L.P., fixed charges consist of interest expense including the amortization of debt issuance costs and rental expense deemed to represent interest expense.
