For purposes of calculating the ratio of earnings to fixed charges, “earnings” represent the sum of (i) pretax income before preferred stock dividends of HECO and before adjustment for undistributed income or loss from equity investees and (ii) fixed charges (as hereinafter defined, but excluding the allowance for borrowed funds used during construction). “Fixed charges” represent the sum of (i) interest, whether capitalized or expensed, (ii) amortization of debt expense and discount or premium related to any indebtedness, whether capitalized or expensed, (iii) the estimate of the interest within rental expense and (iv) the preferred stock dividend requirements of HELCO and MECO, increased to an amount representing the pretax earnings required to cover such dividend requirements.
