(1) The ratio of earnings (loss) to fixed charges is computed by dividing the fixed charges of Worthington Industries, Inc. and our consolidated subsidiaries into earnings or loss.
 
(2) Earnings (loss) consists of earnings (loss) before income taxes and net earnings attributable to non-controlling interest (a) plus (i) distributions from unconsolidated affiliates, (ii) capitalized interest amortization and (iii) fixed charges and (b) less (i) equity in net income of unconsolidated affiliates and (ii) capitalized interest.
 
(3) Fixed charges include interest expense (which includes the amortization of debt offering costs), capitalized interest, fees related to our trade accounts receivable securitization facility, and the portion of rent expense which is deemed to be representative of the interest factor.
 
(4) For the fiscal year ended May 31, 2009, our earnings were insufficient to cover our fixed charges by $113.9 million.
