fixed charges. Fixed charges include cash and non-cash interest expense, whether expensed or capitalized, amortization of debt issuance cost and the portion of rental expense representative of the interest factor.

respectively. Earnings were insufficient to cover fixed charges for the eleven month period ended December 31, 2011 and the one month period ended January 28, 2011 by $74.8 million and $17.9 million, respectively.
