For the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, ordinary shares available for issuance under share based compensation plans of 8.8 million and 9.0 million, and 9.7 million and 17.3 million, respectively, were not included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share because the assumed exercise or issuance of such shares would be anti-dilutive.

In addition, for the six months ended June 30, 2011, ordinary shares available for issuance under the purchase contracts associated with the 10.75% Units of 30.5 million were not included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share because the assumed issuance of such shares would be anti-dilutive. For further information on the 10.75% Units see Item 8, Note 15, “Notes Payable and Debt Financing Arrangements,” to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Company's Annual Report on form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011.
