In 2014, the gain on dispositions, net of tax, of $476.9 million, which includes the gain on dispositions of interests in International Plaza, Arizona Mills, and land in Syosset, New York related to the former Oyster Bay project, has been excluded from earnings for purposes of calculating the ratio of earnings to fixed charges and preferred dividends. In 2015, the adjustment of $0.4 million that was made to reduce the tax recognized as a result of the sale of International Plaza has also been excluded from earnings for purposes of calculating the ratio of earnings to fixed charges and preferred dividends.
