For purposes of calculating the ratio above:

Earnings is defined as income before income taxes, amortization of capitalized interest, and fixed charges (less capitalized interest), excluding equity in undistributed income of equity method investments. Fixed charges consist of interest expense (including capitalized interest and excluding any expense related to early extinguishment of debt) and approximately one-third of rent expense under operating leases (considered representative of the interest factor).
