"Fixed charges" consist of interest expense, including amortization of debt issuance costs and that portion of rental expense considered to be a reasonable approximation of interest.
- (2)
- For the three-months ended March 31, 2004 and 2005, earnings were insufficient to cover fixed charges by $11 million and $6 million, respectively.
