(1) For the year ended December 31, 2010, earnings were insufficient to cover fixed charges by $2.3 million primarily due to a loss on extinguishment of debt of $31.0 million.

We had no preferred stock outstanding for any period presented, and accordingly, the ratio of earnings to combined fixed charges and preferred stock dividends is the same as the ratio of earnings to fixed charges.
