If the company had generated net income for each of the quarters ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, an additional 0.4 million and 0.6 million shares, respectively, would have been used to calculate diluted EPS, and 0.5 million shares for the nine months ended September 30, 2012. The assumed conversions to common stock of stock awards, options and 4.25% Convertible Senior Notes due 2016 ("Convertible Notes") are excluded from the diluted EPS computations for periods in which these items, on an individual basis, have an anti-dilutive effect on diluted EPS. For the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, assumed conversion of the Convertible Notes would have been anti-dilutive because the average trading price of the common shares was below the conversion price of $22.45 per share. Additionally, shares were excluded from the diluted EPS calculation related to restricted stock, stock options and long term incentive plans because they were anti-dilutive. These excluded shares were 1.6 million and 1.9 million for the quarters ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, and 1.9 million and 1.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
