(1) The following computation for the year ended September 30, 2010, reflect, on a pro-forma basis, earnings available for fixed charges, fixed charges and resultant ratios. The computation gives effect to our sale of $125 million (excluding discount) of 8.875% senior notes due 2017 and the use of a portion of the net proceeds to redeem our 10.25% senior notes due 2013.

(Amounts in 000’s, except ratio)	2010
Income as adjusted	$	65,384
Fixed charges	$	21,432
Pro-forma adjustments:
Net increases in interest resulting from the substitution of proceeds from sale of the 8.875%
Senior Notes for the 10.25% Senior Notes		2,729
Pro-forma fixed charges	$	24,161
Pro-forma ratio of earnings to fixed charges		2.71

(2) One third of rent is the portion deemed representative of the interest component.

(3) Ratio is less than 1:1. Deficiency is $12.8 million and $53.4 million for the fiscal years ended September 30, 2008 and 2006, respectively.
