For the three months ended December 29, 2012 and December 31, 2011, stock options and stock-settled stock appreciation rights ("SARS") for approximately 2.1 million and 1.8 million shares, respectively, were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because the options’ and stock-settled SARs’ exercise prices were greater than the average market price of the Company's common shares and, therefore, their effect would be anti-dilutive.
