F1: Trian Partners Strategic Investment Fund II, L.P. ("TPSIF II") previously entered into a privately negotiated back-to-back call and put transaction with a counterparty through which it acquired an economic interest in the indicated shares.

F2: (FN 2, contd.) In this transaction, simultaneously with the purchase of the call option, TPSIF II also sold a put option to the counterparty for the same number of shares pursuant to which, if on or prior to December 31, 2017 (the "Exercise Date") the exercise price per share of the call option were greater than the closing price of the shares on the Exercise Date (the "Closing Price"), the counterparty would be entitled to cause TPSIF II, at its election to either (i) pay the counterparty an amount in cash equal to the product of (a) the excess of the exercise price per share pursuant to such option (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.

F3: The put-call option was previously reported at an exercise price of $41.1361 but, in accordance with the terms of the underlying agreements, the exercise price was adjusted to reflect any dividends paid with respect to the indicated shares and the financing fee paid to the counterparty.
