For purposes of computing the consolidated ratio of earnings to fixed charges, earnings consist of net earnings adjusted for the provision for income taxes, minority interest and fixed charges. Fixed charges consist of interest and discount on all indebtedness and one-third of rentals, which the Company believes is a reasonable approximation of the interest factor of such rentals.
Plan of Distribution:
The Notes are being purchased by Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated (the "Underwriter"), as principal, at 100% of the aggregate principal amount less an underwriting discount equal to 0.0330% of the principal amount of the Notes.
