__________
(1) For the purpose of these calculations, "earnings" is the amount resulting from adding together earnings before taxes, fixed charges, losses attributable to non-controlling interests and our share in net (income) losses of equity investees. "Fixed charges" includes interest expensed and the amortization of capitalized expenses related to indebtedness.
(2) There were no preference shares outstanding for the indicated periods. Accordingly, the ratio of earnings to combined fixed charges and preference dividends was identical to the ratio of earnings to fixed charges for each period.
