Item 9.01. Financial Statements and Exhibits.
The Company is filing as an exhibit to this Current Report on Form 8-K, and incorporating herein by reference, the figures used to calculate the Company’s ratio of earnings to fixed charges and ratio of earnings to combined fixed charges and preferred stock dividends for the three months ended March 31, 2008.
For purposes of determining the ratio of earnings to total fixed charges, “earnings” consist of income from continuing operations before income taxes and minority interest, (income) loss related to equity method investees, distributed income of equity method investees, minority interest in pre-tax (income) loss, amortization of interest capitalized and fixed charges. “Total fixed charges” consist of interest expense (including interest costs capitalized) and other financial charges and an interest factor attributable to rentals. The interest factor attributable to rentals consists of one-third of rental charges, which we deem to be representative of the interest factor inherent in rents.
