(2)		Interest expense, gross includes amortization of prepaid debt fees and discount.
(3)		Earnings consist of income from continuing operations before income taxes plus fixed charges.
(4)		Due to Itron's losses in 2007 and 2004, the ratio coverage was less than 1:1. Additional earnings of $32,938 and $9,406 would have been needed
		to achieve a coverage of 1:1 in each of those respective years.
