(11) Earnings (Loss) per Common Share

Basic earnings (loss) per common share were computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding.  Diluted earnings (loss) per common share was similarly computed after giving consideration to the dilutive effect of stock options and restricted stock unit awards outstanding on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. The computation of diluted earnings per common share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 excludes 860,000 stock options and 942,500 stock options because these shares would have an antidilutive effect.  The computation of diluted loss per common share for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2012 excludes 1,315,465 stock options, and 1,150,000 restricted stock units.
