|- | ---------------------------------------------------

The
ratio of earnings to fixed charges is computed by dividing fixed charges into income (loss) before income tax expense (benefit), minority interests in net losses of subsidiaries, equity in (earnings) losses of unconsolidated affiliates and
discontinued operations plus fixed charges. Fixed charges include, as applicable interest expense, amortization of debt issuance costs, the estimated interest component of rent expense (calculated as one-third of net rent expense).
