* For the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, and for each of the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008, 2007, 2006 and 2005, there were no outstanding shares of preferred stock of the Company. Therefore, the ratio of earnings to combined fixed charges and preferred stock dividends is not different from the ratio of earnings to fixed charges for those periods.
