Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration
The Reporting Persons may be deemed to be the beneficial owner of, in the aggregate, 19,353,530 Shares (including Shares underlying forward contracts and call options). Of such Shares, 1,188,000 Shares were purchased by the Reporting Persons collectively for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $83.4 million. Of the remaining Shares, 15,500,000 Shares may be deemed beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons as a result of their having entered into forward contracts with respect to such number of Shares at a forward price of $60.00 per share, for an aggregate forward price of $930 million, plus a financing charge. The forward price is subject to adjustment to account for any dividends or other distributions declared by the Issuer.
