| |      |  | "'Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio is defined as the sum of net
profit after taxes, tax expense, interest expense,
depreciation, amortization, and rent expense, less dividends,
loans and advances to parents, affiliates and officers, and
cash taxes paid divided by the sum of current portion of long
term debt, rent expense, interest expense, and non-financed
capital expenditures; provided, however, that for purposes of
calculating this ratio (a) for the periods ending March 31,
2002, June 30, 2002 and September 30, 2002, only non-financed
capital expenditures in excess of $6,000,000 in the preceding
4 fiscal quarter period shall be included and (b) for the
period ending December 31, 2002, only non-financed capital
expenditures in excess of $4,000,000 in the preceding 4
fiscal quarter period shall be included; provided, further,
that for purposes of calculating this ratio for the period
ending March 31, 2003 and thereafter, 100% of non-financed
capital expenditures in the preceding 4 fiscal quarter period
shall be included.

| |      |  | This ratio will be calculated at the end of each fiscal
quarter, using the results of that quarter and each of the 3
immediately preceding quarters. The current portion of long
term debt will be measured as of the last day of the
preceding fiscal year.
