Computation of Ratio of Earnings to Fixed Charges

The following table presents the ratio of earnings to fixed charges for us and our consolidated subsidiaries for each of the periods indicated.

Neither we nor any of our consolidated subsidiaries had any preferred shares outstanding for any of the periods reflected in this table.
