(1) The portion of total rent expense that represents the interest factor is 33.3%.
(2) The ratio coverage for fiscal year 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017 and the six months ended March 30, 2018 was less than 1:1. We would have needed to generate additional earnings of approximately $40.9 million, $15.4 million, $21.6 million, $49.5 million and $34.1 million in fiscal year 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017 and the six months ended March 30, 2018, respectively, to achieve a coverage ratio of 1:1 during these periods.
