The ratio of earnings to fixed charges represents the number of times fixed charges are covered by earnings. For the purpose of this ratio, "earnings" is determined by adding pretax income to "fixed charges." For this purpose, "fixed charges" consists of interest on all indebtedness. The ratio for the Successor period June 1 to September 30, 2007 was deficient by $1.3 million, due to a one-time charge-off of $4.5 million when we implemented the change in our charge-off methodology.
