</TABLE>

(1)  Earnings available for fixed charges equals loss before income taxes, plus
     fixed charges and amortization of capitalized interest, less the accretion
     of preferred stock redemption value and capitalized interest. Fixed charges
     consist of interest expense (including amortization of debt costs relating
     to our indebtedness), non-cash interest expense, one-third of rent expense
     as representative of the interest portion of rentals, capitalized interest,
     and the accretion of our preferred stock's redemption value.

(2)  Earnings were inadequate to cover fixed charges for each of the five years
     in the period ended December 31, 2001. Additional earnings would have been
     required to cover fixed charges for each of the five years in the period
     ended December 31, 2001, in the amount of (in thousands) 2001 $99,186; 2000
     $97,530; 1999 $40,116; 1998 $3,492; and 1997 $4,695.
