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.

F4: Trian Fund Management, L.P ("Trian Management") serves as the management company for Trian Partners, L.P., Trian Partners Master Fund, L.P., Trian Partners Master Fund (ERISA), L.P., Trian Partners Parallel Fund I, L.P., TPSIF II, Trian Partners Strategic Investment Fund-A, L.P., Trian Partners Co-Investment Fund-A, L.P., Trian Partners Strategic Investment Fund-N, L.P., Trian Partners Strategic Investment Fund-D, L.P., Trian Partners Fund (SUB)-G, L.P., Trian Partners Strategic Fund-G II, L.P., Trian Partners Strategic Fund G-III, L.P., Trian Partners Co-Investment Opportunities Fund, Ltd. and Trian SPV (Sub) XI, L.P. (collectively, the "Trian Entities") and as such determines the investment and voting decisions of the Trian Entities with respect to the shares of the Issuer held by them.

F5: (FN 4, contd.) Mr. Peltz is a member of Trian Fund Management GP, LLC, which is the general partner of Trian Management, and therefore is in a position to determine the investment and voting decisions made by Trian Management on behalf of the Trian Entities. Accordingly, Mr. Peltz and Trian Management may be deemed to indirectly beneficially own (as that term is defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) the shares beneficially owned by the Trian Entities. The Reporting Persons disclaim beneficial ownership of such shares except to the extent of their respective pecuniary interests therein and this report shall not be deemed an admission that the Reporting Persons are the beneficial owner of such securities for purposes of Section 16 or for any other purpose. Mr. Peltz is a director of the Issuer.

F6: The put-call option was previously reported at an exercise price of $41.1303 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.
