The Trian Group intends to have further discussions with members of the Board of Directors and senior management of the Issuer regarding matters relating to the Issuer, including the matters and recommendations described above and/or other matters, recommendations and suggestions that relate to the Issuer’s businesses, management, operations (including cost structure and opportunities to drive growth), assets, capital structure, capital allocation, strategic plans, corporate governance and/or Board structure and composition (including Board representation), or other mattersIn addition, the Reporting Persons may communicate with current or prospective shareholders, industry participants and other interested or relevant parties about the Issuer and some or all of the matters referred to in this Item 4.

*On the various dates set forth above, and as more fully described below, the named persons entered into a series of privately negotiated back-to-back call and put transactions (the “Options”) with Morgan Stanley & Co. International plc  as agent (the “Counterparty”) through which they acquired beneficial ownership of an aggregate of 19,257,954 Shares and as a result of which such named persons are subject to the same economic gain or loss as if they had purchased the underlying Shares.  More specifically, these transactions represent call options pursuant to which, on or prior June 8, 2018 (the “Exercise Date”), the named person may acquire the number of Shares set forth above at the Price Per Share set forth above (the “Exercise Price”).  These call options may be exercised at any time, in whole or in part, on or prior to the Exercise Date. Simultaneously with the purchase of each call option, the named person also sold a put option to the Counterparty for the same number of Shares pursuant to which, if on the Exercise Date the call options have not been exercised by the named person and the Exercise Price is greater than the closing price of the Shares on the Exercise Date (the “Closing Price”), the Counterparty may require the named person to, at such person’s election, either (i) pay the Counterparty an amount in cash equal to the product of (a) the excess of the Exercise Price over the Closing Price and (b) the number of Shares set forth above or (ii) acquire from the Counterparty the number of Shares set forth above at the Exercise Price. As part of these transactions, each of the named persons pays the Counterparty a financing fee based on the number of days that the Options that it holds are outstanding, which fee is calculated using a monthly rate equal to USD-FFR-OPEN (as displayed on Bloomberg Screen “FEDSOPEN” <INDEX> <GO> or any successor page) plus an additional amount between 0.30% and 1.10%.  Until they are exercised, the Options do not give the Filing Persons direct or indirect voting, investment or dispositive control over the underlying Shares and do not require the Counterparty to acquire, hold, vote or dispose of any securities of the Issuer.  Accordingly, the Reporting Persons disclaim beneficial ownership of any Shares or any other securities of the Issuer that may be, from time to time, held by the Counterparty.
