For purposes of calculating such ratios, 'earnings' consist of operating income (loss) before income taxes plus fixed charges and amortization of capitalized interest less capitalized interest. Fixed charges consist of interest expense, amortization of debt issuance costs, capitalized interest, and an estimation of the portion of rent expense representative of the interest component within rent expense.
