(1)                   Ordinary share equivalents from share options to purchase approximately 19.7 million shares and 24.8 million shares outstanding during the three-month periods ended December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively, and 21.0 million shares and 26.2 million shares outstanding during the nine-month periods ended December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively, were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share primarily because the exercise price of these options was greater than the average market price of the Company’s ordinary shares during the respective periods.
