The aggregate purchase price of the 8,244,100 Shares purchased by High
River, Icahn Master and Icahn Partners, collectively, was $597,122,098.70
(including commissions and, with respect to Shares acquired upon exercise of

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer
Item 5 is hereby supplemented as follows:
(a) The Reporting Persons may be deemed to beneficially own, in the
aggregate, 8,244,100 Shares, representing approximately 5.04% of the Issuer's
outstanding Shares (based upon the 163,442,818 Shares stated to be outstanding
as of March 11, 2005 by the Issuer in the Issuer's definitive proxy statement on
Schedule 14A, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 1,
2005).
(b) High River has sole voting power and sole dispositive power with
regard to 1,648,820 Shares. Each of Barberry, Hopper and Carl C. Icahn has
shared voting power and shared dispositive power with regard to such Shares.
Icahn Master has sole voting power and sole dispositive power with regard to
3,365,557 Shares. Each of Icahn Offshore, CCI Offshore and Carl C. Icahn has

group may be deemed to beneficially own Shares owned by the Reporting Persons
and the JANA Parties. Upon information and belief, the JANA Parties, as of the
close of business on April 13, 2005, may be deemed to beneficially own 4,388,700
Shares in the aggregate. Accordingly, the 12,632,800 Shares that may be deemed
to be beneficially owned in the aggregate by the group constitutes approximately
7.7% of the Shares outstanding. However, neither the fact of this filing nor
anything contained herein shall be deemed to be an admission by any of the
Reporting Persons that they are the beneficial owners of Shares owned by the
JANA Parties.
