|(1) | Interest component of rental expense is estimated to equal1/3of such expense, which is considered a reasonable approximation of the interest factor.
|--- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

|(2) | Due to the loss in 2012 and in 2011, the ratio coverage was less than 1:1. The company would have needed to generate additional earnings of 339 million euros in 2012 and
3,226 million euros in 2011 to achieve a coverage of 1:1.
|--- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

|(3) | The calculation of the ratio of earnings to fixed charges excludes discontinued operations. However the impact on the ratio from the inclusion of the interest expenses related to
discontinued operations would be immaterial.
