__________________________________________________________________
| | (a) | If the effect is dilutive, weighted average common shares outstanding include the incremental shares that would be issued upon the assumed exercise of stock options and vesting of restricted stock units ("RSUs"). For the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012 approximately 0.3 million, 0.4 million and 0.8 million shares, respectively, related to potentially dilutive securities are excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share because their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive. |
| | (b) | Performance-based stock units ("PSUs") are included in the denominator for earnings per share if (i) the applicable performance condition(s) has been met and (ii) the inclusion of the PSUs is dilutive for the respective reporting periods. For each of the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2012 less than 0.1 million PSUs that were probable of vesting were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share because the performance conditions had not been met. For the year ended December 31, 2013, all PSUs that were considered to be probable of vesting were included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share as their performance conditions had been met. |
