| (1)      The ratio of earnings to fixed charges is completed by dividing earnings      by fixed charges. "Earnings" consist of earnings before income taxes plus      fixed charges. Fixed charges include (i) interest expense on      borrowings and amortization of capitalized financing costs and debt      discount and (ii) a      reasonable approximation of the interest factor deemed to be included in      rental expense. Earnings, as adjusted were not sufficient to cover fixed      charges by approximately $159.2 million for the fiscal year ended December      31, 2008, $51.1 million for one month ended January 31, 2006 and $4.6      million and $12.9 million for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2003 and      2002, respectively. |   |
