(1) For purposes of determining the ratio of earnings to fixed charges for all period presented, earnings consist of income before income taxes plus fixed charges, less net income attributable to the noncontrolling interests in less than wholly-owned subsidiaries.
(2) Fixed charges for all periods consist of interest expense including amortization of deferred debt issuance costs and one third of rental expenses on operating leases, representing that portion of rent expense which management believes is representative of the interest component of rent expense.
