Exhibit 12.1
RATIO OF EARNINGS TO FIXED CHARGES
     The following table presents our historical ratio of earnings to fixed charges for each accounting period during the five year period ended December 31, 2009. We have not presented a ratio of earnings to combined fixed charges and preferred stock dividends because we did not have preferred stock outstanding during any such period. Therefore, our ratio of earnings to combined fixed charges and preferred dividends for any given period is equivalent to our ratio of earnings to fixed charges.
     For purposes of this table, earnings consist of pre-tax income (loss) before adjustments for noncontrolling interest, plus fixed charges (excluding capitalized interest, but including amortization of amounts previously capitalized). Fixed charges consist of interest (including capitalized interest) on all debt, amortization of debt expenses incurred on issuance, loss or extinguishment of debt and an estimate of the interest within rental expense.
