There were no potentially dilutive common shares related to stock options and unvested shares of restricted common stock for the third quarters of 2014 and 2013 and nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 excluded from the computation of diluted EPS related to common shares.

The 2010 Convertible Notes have a dilutive effect only in those quarterly periods in which our average stock price exceeds the current effective conversion price (see Note 5).

The Stock Warrants have a dilutive effective only in those quarterly periods in which our average stock price exceeds the exercise price of $26.68 per warrant (under the treasury stock method), and are not subject to performance vesting conditions.  The Stock Warrants that vest in January 2015 (0.5 million Stock Warrants) were included in computation of diluted EPS for the period of time they were outstanding.  The remaining Stock Warrants were excluded from the computation of diluted EPS as the performance conditions associated with the vesting of those Stock Warrants had not been met as of September 30, 2014.
