Trian’s Investment Thesis For DuPont ▪ When Trian issued its Summary White Paper (September 2014), Trian arrived at an implied target value per share in excess of $120 (1) by the end of 2017, a 21% internal rate of return (IRR) for shareholders holding DuPont stock during this period ▪ The Key Assumptions for Trian’s Analysis in its Summary White Paper were as follows: – Valuation: 9.9x blended next twelve months (NTM) Enterprise Value (EV)/EBITDA multiple (2 ) – Best - in - class operating performance : Revenue growth and margins in - line with peers and management long - term targets o Models 410bps of margin improvement from 2014 - 2018 • If one assumes a ~30% flow - through on incremental revenue, the resulting cost savings implied by the model would be less than $1bn of cost savings (3) – Prudent Leverage: 2x net debt/EBITDA across the businesses as a whole; maintain investment grade rating – Focus on Returns to Shareholders: Grow dividend at 10% compounded annual growth rate (CAGR); assuming all excess free cash flow returned to shareholders – Tax Rate: 33% tax rate (higher than the 22% expected by the Company in 2015 (4) ) across the business to provide flexibility with free cash flow 9 Note: For more detail regarding this analysis, see “Trian Implied Target Value Analysis For DuPont Stock”, filed with the Sec uri ties and Exchange Commission (SEC) on April 17, 2015. (1) The Open Letter to the DuPont Board (Trian Summary White Paper) dated September 16, 2014 is available at www.DuPontCanBeGreat.com . This is not meant to be, nor is it, a prediction of the future trading price or market value of DuPont stock . There can be no assurance or guarantee with respect to the prices at which DuPont stock will trade, and such stock may not trade at pr ices that may be implied herein. (2) EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. Assumes 6% increase in the NTM EV/EBITDA mu ltiple based on DuPont’s consensus valuation as of September 2014. (3) Trian estimates that consolidated DuPont is burdened by $2 - 4bn of excess corporate costs. See pages 71 and 72 of Trian’s White Paper which was filed with the SEC on February 17, 2015 and is available at www.DuPontCanBeGreat.com . (4) See the Company’s Investor Presentation dated January 27, 2015. Trian believes the implied value calculation could have additional upside based on our view of $2 - 4bn of excess costs


 
 

Actions Speak Louder Than Words: The CEO Seems to Lack Confidence In DuPont’s Share Price 10 Source: Capital IQ, Bloomberg and SEC Filings . (1) Information based on Form 4 filings and Company proxy statements. Trian’s analysis is conducted on a “net share - settled basis ”. As such, when calculating ownership and share sales, Trian deducts the cash/shares required to exercise the options (i.e., Trian uses “treasury stock method” to calculate the CEO’s ownership ). For options exercised, Trian uses the share price on the date the options were exercised to estimate the net shares sold / owned . Trian’s analysis takes into account (i) shares directly owned at the beginning of Trian’s investment, (ii) RSUs that have vested over the peri od of Trian’s ownership, (iii) performance - based stock units that have vested over the period (net of taxes), and (iv) net shares from options exercisable over the period . (2) Information based on DuPont Form 4 filings. The $80 million estimate reflects the gross amount of stock sold by Ellen Kullman for reasons other than the payment of taxes since Trian first invested. The estimate is based on the average dollar amount specified in the applicable Form 4 multiplied by the number of shares sold. According to SEC filings, most of these sales of DuPont shares were made purs uan t to Rule 10b5 - 1 trading plans. While Rule 10b5 - 1 trading plans provide for automatic purchases or sales pursuant to formula or similar method for determining the amount, price and/or date of the transaction, Rule 10b5 - 1 trading plans may generally be terminated or amended prior to their predetermined end. For additional information, see page 91 of the Trian White Paper which was filed with the SEC on February 17, 2015, and is available at www.DuPontCanBeGreat.com Kullman exercises & sells options worth ~23% of her stake, at a 15 - year high Option exercised & sold ▪ The CEO sold ~54 % (1) of her stock (~$80m) (2) after Trian first invested ▪ 23 % (1) of her equity position was sold in the week after the release of Trian’s Summary White Paper (September 2014), when the stock hit a new 15 - year - high of $72.83 ▪ Despite rhetoric about a “higher growth, higher value strategy,” the CEO is not willing to “put her money where her mouth is” ▪ Sold from long - term incentives and from stock options she had been granted, most of which did not expire until 2016 or 2017 ▪ We believe the reason management receives equity as part of compensation is to ensure their interests are aligned with the long - term interests of shareholders. The intention is not for management to sell prematurely ▪ Ask yourself: If the CEO and Board members truly believed in their strategy wouldn’t they be buying stock? Ellen Kullman’s Cumulative Share Sales Over Time Stockholders award management long - term incentives to ensure an alignment of interests. The intention is not for management to sell prematurely.

Our Goals ▪ While Trian believes it has already made an impact on value creation at DuPont, there is much more value to be unlocked; a vote for Trian’s nominees is a vote for four highly qualified individuals who will seek to work collaboratively with the Board to: 1. Assess the corporate structure and determine whether management is capable of achieving best - in - class revenue growth and margins with the existing portfolio or whether there is a need to separate the portfolio; Trian nominees are open - minded as to the best path forward 2. Eliminate excess corporate costs and ensure productivity initiatives hit the bottom line 3. Assess capital allocation including organic investments (R&D, capital expenditures, industrial biosciences initiatives), M&A, and balance sheet efficiency / capital return policies (increasing dividends) 4. Improve corporate governance including transparency of business performance, alignment of compensation programs with performance, and overall accountability for promised performance 19

Excess Corporate Costs: The Coatings / Axalta Case Study ▪ In 2012, DuPont announced the sale of Coatings to private equity buyers ▪ At the time, Coatings generated $339m (1) of EBITDA (2011A). Today, that same business, renamed Axalta , generates $851m (2) of EBITDA, an improvement of >150% ▪ In 2014, the new owners filed a Form S - 1 to take Axalta public. The S - 1 disclosed that Pro Forma EBITDA in 2011 was $568m (3) , $229m higher than originally reported by DuPont in the same year – this implies that DuPont burdened the Coatings segment with $229m of excess corporate costs 22 EBITDA Under DuPont ( 2007 - 2011) $339 $568 2011 (As Reported by DuPont) 2011 (As Reported by Axalta S-1) EBITDA – Different Owners, Same Year EBITDA Under New Owners – Improvement ( 2011 - 2014) $380 $339 2007 2011 $568 $851 2011 2014 Source: DuPont and Axalta SEC Filings.

Trian Will Seek To End “ Crony” Compensation ▪ The Board’s compensation practices have rewarded management for failing to meet its targets. In 2013, management’s long - term incentive plan had a payout of 113% of target despite a TSR in the 25th percentile of DuPont’s peers ▪ That same year, short - term compensation payout was almost 90% despite adjusted EPS growth of 3%, significantly below the Company’s long - term target of 12% EPS growth ▪ In 2014, the Board’s Human Resources and Compensation Committee acknowledged poor operating performance as it exercised “negative discretion” and gave management a 0% payout factor for “corporate performance” under DuPont’s short - term incentive program. However, the Human Resources and Compensation Committee still found a way to pay management by giving an 80 - 100% payout factor for “individual performance” 26 Corporate Performance Rating 0% Individual Performance Rating 80% - 100% Does this make sense? How can it be that the Company is doing poorly operationally but management as individuals are each doing great? Source: Source: DuPont SEC filings and 2011 and 2013 Investor Day Transcripts.


 
 

Poor Corporate Governance Structure At Chemours ▪ Trian is concerned that DuPont is spinning off Chemours to stockholders with a poor corporate governance structure – this “entrenchment” tactic could be a barrier to unlocking shareholder value ▪ Boards recognize that stockholders do not want entrenched directors and poor governance at spinoffs; Kraft (from Mondelēz), Time Inc. (from Time Warner ), Gannett (spinning off its publishing business) and PayPal (from eBay) are recently completed or announced spinoffs with shareholder friendly governance provisions ▪ In addition, DuPont has announced that it will appoint two of its directors, Curtis Crawford and Richard H. Brown (who will be Non - Executive Chairman of Chemours), to the Chemours’ Board. Both of these directors received the most “Against” votes for re - election at DuPont’s 2014 annual meeting (excluding DuPont’s CEO and the Lead Director) Anti - Takeover Provisions: Chemours ▪ Staggered board (3 classes) ( 1) ▪ Supermajority vote (80%) required to amend bylaws and certain provisions of the certificate of incorporation ▪ No stockholder action by written consent ▪ 35% threshold of stockholders to call a special meeting (later reduced to 25%) (1 ) ▪ Did not opt out of Delaware General Corporation Law (DGCL) Section 203 (2) Effects of These Provisions ▪ Limited ability to maximize value through strategic or financial M&A – could prevent stockholders from realizing the highest value for Chemours shares ▪ Reduced accountability – we believe that a staggered board drastically limits the ability of stockholders to hold a board accountable, thus creating a greater risk of the occurrence of value destructive actions by management and the board ▪ Stockholder disenfranchisement – high supermajority thresholds make it almost impossible for stockholders to amend the bylaws or certain provisions of the certificate ▪ Prevention of the discovery of excess holding costs – by creating a “moat” around a DuPont cost structure and management team (at Chemours), stockholders cannot benefit from fresh, third party perspectives (like Axalta) Source: The Chemours Company, LLC Form 10 filed on December 18, 2014, SEC filings. (1) On March 30, 2015, in response to requests for improvements of Chemours corporate governance by Trian and following a stockholder lawsuit, DuPont announced that (i) it was reducing the threshold to call a special meeting from 35% to 25% and (ii) Chemours’ classified board structure will be put to a stockholder vote at Chemours’ first annual meeting in 2016 . However , even if stockholders vote to remove Chemours’ classified board, it will remain in place until at least 2017. (2) DGCL Section 203 covers business combinations with “interested stockholders .” Section 203 of the DGCL prohibits a corporation that has publicly traded stock from engaging in certain business combinations with an interested stockholder (defined as the owner of 15% or more of the corporation’s voting stock), or an in ter ested stockholder’s affiliates or associates, for a three - year period unless, among other exceptions, approval of the board of directors (and, in some cases, the disinterested stockholders) is received . 27


 
 

Other Governance Considerations ▪ Trian believes that DuPont’s Board should ask whether the Lead Director has the capacity to effectively serve DuPont’s stockholders in that role – Does a director that currently serves as a CEO and Chairman of a global industrial company and on the board of one of the nation’s largest bank - based financial services companies, have the ability to devote the time and effort required to effectively serve DuPont’s stockholders as a strong, independent Lead Director? ▪ Trend is towards raising mandatory retirement age of public company board members – Over the last 10 years, the percentage of boards of S&P 500 companies with a mandatory retirement age of 75 or older has increased from 5% to 30% (1) – Among the companies with a retirement age of 75 or older are: Accenture, Aetna, Aflac, Alcoa, Altria, Apple, Bank of New York Mellon, BlackRock, Bristol - Myers Squibb, General Electric, Ingersoll - Rand, Lockheed - Martin, Goldman Sachs, Kraft Foods, Marsh & McLennan, Microsoft, Mondelēz, Monsanto, State Street, Textron (1) – “[ I]t is often the case that older directors are among the savviest and most skilled board members …” David Katz and Laura McIntosh, Wachtell, Lipton, Rosen & Katz (2) 28 (1) Source : 2014 Spencer Stuart Board Index.

Rhetoric v s. Reality: Board/Management Claims DuPont’s Rhetoric The Reality “…operating priority is simply execution…I use data to drive decisions, I set clear targets…I set the competitive benchmarks and I continuously raise the bar.” – May 2, 2013 Investor Day said by Ellen Kullman ▪ That very same day, DuPont lowered long - term targets for six of seven businesses ▪ The Board has never addressed DuPont’s continual miss of its rolling long - term targets (12% annual earnings growth) (2) ▪ In aggregate, EPS has grown only 6% in total since we invested (3) “Relative to our five year, long - term rolling growth targets (7% rev growth, 12% earnings growth) (1) …, we believe these goals are both appropriate and achievable. We fully endorse management’s plan to achieve them and are encouraged by progress against them .” – Letter to Trian from Alexander Cutler, DuPont’s Lead Director dated March 5, 2014 ▪ Less than four months later, DuPont lowered guidance for the third consecutive year ▪ If DuPont achieved its long - term target, the company would be on pace to deliver $6.45 of EPS this year, more than 50% higher than 2015 EPS guidance (4) “Returning capital to shareholders has always been a priority at DuPont” – March 23, 2015 Letter from Alexander Cutler ▪ Anemic dividend growth in management tenure: 12% vs 66% for proxy peers (5) ▪ Shares outstanding have grown since management began tenure (6) “Trian…nominated…its own director candidates…to advance Trian’s high risk agenda to break up and add excessive debt to the Company” – March 23, 2015 Letter from Alexander Cutler ▪ Trian is open - minded as to on corporate structure ▪ Trian’s “agenda” solely focused on improving operating performance and capital allocation ▪ Trian assumes the business remains investment grade , while DuPont is putting Chemours into junk territory (7) 31 Source: (1) Targets were originally given in Investor Day 2010.

DuPont Changed Its EPS Reporting Methodology In Late 2012; Then Suggested Reduced Margin Targets Were Correlated To Its Accounting Change ▪ In December 2012, DuPont introduced a new EPS reporting methodology, called “Operating EPS”, which adds back non - operating pension/other post - employment benefit (“OPEB”) costs to non - GAAP EPS ▪ At its May 2013 Investor Day, DuPont gave long - term margin targets by business that differed from those given at its 2011 Investor Day ▪ The Company suggested the difference between these targets was merely an accounting difference (i.e. the non - operating pension / OPEB adjustment); responding to a question about the Industrial Biosciences and Performance Materials segments, management said the following: – “ In terms of margins, the accounting change really accounts for the shift that you're seeing . So we have not revised up or revised down our expectations” ▪ It took prodding from a research analyst during the Q&A for DuPont to admit that certain margin targets were lowered – “…Safety and Protection margin [targets] that you show are 21% to 23% which is what they were 18 months ago. But you now exclude your pension cost…[which was] more than 500 basis points .” – JP Morgan analyst (1) – DuPont responded: “…You're right, Jeff. The margin is lower between 400 and 500 basis points from that standpoint” 34 At DuPont’s 2013 Investor Day, management was not transparent about reducing margin targets, suggesting that reduced margin targets were correlated to the accounting change. Were DuPont’s independent directors aware of this? Trian’s nominees will seek to ensure that the board holds management accountable.

Lack Of Transparency In Reporting Source : Company Press Releases, SEC Filings, 2006 Data Book, Q3 2013 presentation. (1) From 2010 - 2011, DuPont split Agriculture & Nutrition into 2 segments, only providing one year of historical information for each. From 2008 - 2009, DuPont changed reporting from 6 to 7 segments and adjusted the businesses included within the pre - existing segments (e.g. Safety & Protection, Electronics & Communications). From 2001 - 2002, D uPont dramatically realigned its businesses, excluding Agriculture & Nutrition. ( 2) “COGS” refers to cost of goods sold. ( 3) 2012 implied gross margins increased by ~960bps using the 2013 annual 8 - K vs the 2012 annual 8 - K (COGS were 61.9% of sales vs 71.5% sales), as the company separated other operating charges from cost of goods sold. Analysis defines gross margin as sales less COGS. (4) SG&A expense as a % of sales. (5) Average cannibalized sales as a percentage of new product sales from 2004 - 2006 sales. Estimates using the graphs provided on page 16 of the 2006 DuPont data book, entitled “Sales From Products Commercialized in Last 5 Years” and “Growth Revenue From Products Commercialized in Last Five Years (Net of Cannibalization). ” (6) Claimed $26m gain related to an equity remeasurement of Pannar, yet in 2012 annual press release identified gain on the s ale of equity method investment as a one - time gain ($122m gain). (7) Source: DuPont Shareholder Update Presentation 10/28/14 (page 27). 1. DuPont “shuffles the deck chairs” with operating segments – Changed segment reporting lines 3 times since 2000 (1) – Constantly re - stated segments (e.g. Viton moved from Performance Materials (PMat) to PChem in 2014) 2. DuPont “shuffles the deck chairs” with the historical income statements – In 2013 Form 10 - K, reported $3.8bn of “other operating charges,” a completely new P&L line, formerly included in COGS (2) , effectively restating the implied gross margin as 960bps higher (3) – A year later, DuPont restated “other operating charges” again – DuPont reduced the 2013 expense by $2.2bn and effectively increased the SG&A ratio by >600bps (4) 3. Management stopped reporting new product cannibalization entirely in 2007 – According to DuPont’s prior Data Books , ~63% of new product sales were cannibalized in the years 2004 - 2006 (5) 4. DuPont lacks a consistent reporting methodology for M&A activity – Gains on asset sales are occasionally included as operating income, e.g. Q3 2013 ~$26m gain on Pannar (6) – When measuring operating margins between 2008 and 2013, DuPont selectively includes the impact of M&A (7) o DuPont excludes Coatings (sale announced in 2012) and PChem (not yet spun), but doesn’t exclude Danisco (acquired in 2011), nor does it pro forma adjust the “base” 2008 margin for the Danisco acquisition 35

Trian’s Board Engagement Is Comprehensive And Adds Value At large capitalization companies, it is not unusual for Board and Committee members to receive a thousand pages of material; as a result, it is difficult, if not impossible, for any director without a team of analysts to thoroughly review all of the information ▪ When a Trian partner joins a Board, the resources of Trian are mobilized: 1. An operational, financial, strategic and legal diligence request list is sent to the company 2. The appropriate Trian team examines all the information (Trian signs a confidentiality agreement) 3. Trian team interacts with several layers of management ▪ The Trian director is therefore able to: 1. Reduce management’s “information advantage” over Board members 2. Provide thoughtful analysis and recommendations based on material, non - public information 3. Ensure decisions are made by the Board in a dispassionate and clinical fashion 37 While DuPont may portray Trian’s involvement as intrusive, history suggests the result is enhanced performance and long - lasting, collaborative relationships with management and other board members; perhaps best evidenced by Trian’s continuing relationships with Bill Johnson, Arthur Winkleblack and Dennis Reilley (Heinz) and Dennis Kass (Legg Mason)


 
 

Trian Has A Demonstrated Ability To Drive Operational Improvements and Growth 38 3.5% 8.3% Trian Investments During Prior 5-Year Period Trian Investments During Time Period Source: Company filings, Bloomberg (1) Adjusted earnings per share (“EPS”) is defined as net income excluding specifically identified items divided by the weighted average n umb er of diluted shares outstanding during the fiscal year . Trian believes that using EPS on an adjusted basis for this analysis provides a more accurate representation of a company’s operating performance across time periods . Adjustments to net income include, but are not limited to, certain non - cash items (e.g., impairments, intangibles amortization, non - cash interest), non - recurring items (e.g., one - time gains and/or losses, restructuring costs, extraordinary it ems) and non - operational items (e.g., acquisition costs, legal settlements, hedges). (2) “Core and Other Trian Investments” refers to the same population of Trian investments used for the Total Shareholder Return (TSR) analysis described on page 39 of this presentation. Please refer to the summary chart on such page for the names of the “Core Trian Investments” and “Other Trian Investments” used in the TSR analysis and the criteria used to select suc h investments. Such investments do not represent all of the investments purchased or sold for Trian’s clients. (3) The Annual Adjusted EPS Growth during the “ Prior 5 - Year Period” represents the compound annual growth rate (“CAGR”) calculated using the company’s Adjusted EPS on the “pre - investment date” versus the Adjusted EPS five years prior to such date. For purposes of this analysis, the “pre - investment date” for each Trian portfolio company was established as the port folio company’s (forward or backward - looking) fiscal year - end that was closest to Trian’s initial investment date . (4) The Annual Adjusted EPS Growth during the Time Period represents the CAGR calculated using the company’s Adjusted EPS on the “pre - investment date” versus the Adjusted EPS through either calendar year 2014 or the last full fiscal year prior to the last day of public trading of the company’s stock. Note : While Trian may believe that earnings per share growth during the Time Period is attributable in large part to the cumulative effects of the implementation of operational and strategic initiatives during th e period of Trian’s active involvement and beyond, there is no objective method to confirm what portion of such growth was attributabl e t o Trian’s efforts and what may have been attributable to other factors. The EPS Growth figures on this page should not be construed as an indication of the performance of the funds managed by Trian and it should not be assumed that any or all of the investments included in this analysis were or will be profitable in any of the funds managed by Trian. Past performance is not an indication of future results. Compared to Prior 5 - Year Period ▪ Trian has a long track record of working with its portfolio companies to help grow earnings ▪ We have seen the impact of our active involvement and constructive engagement stretch well beyond just the period of our investment ▪ As the charts below indicate, when measuring annual adjusted EPS growth since the time of Trian’s initial investment through the present, our portfolio companies have on average generated significant EPS outperformance ▪ B ased on this track record, Trian believes it can help DuPont grow earnings significantly (3) (4) Annual Adjusted EPS (1) Growth for Core and Other Trian Investments (2) Time Period: From the Date of Trian’s First Purchase Through the Present (or last day of trading on exchange)

Nelson Peltz and I served together on the Heinz board beginning in 2006 and have remained in touch since the company was sold in 2013. Nelson was an insightful and constructive presence on the Heinz board. He approached board and management relationships professionally and collegially. Nelson, in concert with other members of the Heinz board, made excellent strategic and operational recommendations and decisions which helped move Heinz forward . ” – Charles E. Bunch, Chairman and CEO, PPG Industries, Inc., and former Director of H.J. Heinz Company


 
 

I think that what Nelson is doing is trying to get things to be as good as possible at DuPont. I think they should put him on the board . ” – Jim Cramer, Host, CNBC’s Mad Money


 
 

Based on Mr. Peltz’s track record, he’s not a short - term guy. When he gets on a Board, they stay in the stock for an average of 5.6 years. He’s told me that he’s told the mutual funds that are already in the stock that [ Trian ] will likely be there longer than they will. His track record in names like...I can go down the list: Wendy’s, they’ve been in Wendy’s since ’05. There’s Pepsi, Kraft, Mondelez , Tiffany’s. These are not fly by night investments from a guy who shows up and then bails 10 minutes later. Doesn’t the track record speak for itself ? ” – Scott Wapner , Host, CNBC’s Halftime Report

Estimated Excess Corporate Costs: The Coatings Case Study Approach #1 - % of sales Approach #2 - % of EBITDA ▪ There is a $229m difference between the 2011 Adjusted EBITDA reported by Axalta and DuPont, for its Coatings business ( same company, same year ). We believe much of the difference is excess corporate expense, which in our view, burdens all of DuPont’s businesses ▪ Trian estimates excess corporate costs using two approaches: Source: Axalta Coatings Systems Ltd. Form S - 1 filed on 8/20/14, Trian estimates, and DuPont SEC Filings. (1) Represents Axalta’s Adjusted Operating Income plus Depreciation & Amortization expense. Metric differs slightly from Axalta’s Adjusted EBITDA (as reported) as it excludes other expense (income) and dividend to non - controlling interest to make EBITDA comparable . (2) Coatings adjusted PTOI plus depreciation expense less an allocation of unallocated corporate costs and adds back non - cash items and certain pension expense in - line with Axalta’s current addbacks to make it comparable. Assigns unallocated corporate expense at ~2 % of sales (DuPont’s FY2011 unallocated corporate expense and other as % of FY2011 segment sales ) to make margins comparable. (3) Coatings adjusted PTOI plus depreciation expense and adds back non - cash items and certain pension expense ( in - line with Axalta’s current addbacks to make it comparable). (4) 2014 DuPont EBITDA before Unallocated Corporate represents DuPont’s reported Adjusted Segment PTOI less Other PTOI plus segme nt depreciation for 2014. (5) Unallocated corporate e xpenses plus O ther adjusted PTOI minus 2014 unallocated corporate and other depreciation and amortization. (1) (2) (2) (3) (1) (4) (5) 82 At Axalta / Coatings 2011 Adj.

Estimated Excess Corporate Costs: DuPont’s Methodology Approach #3 - % of Employees ▪ DuPont asserts that Trian has used “faulty extrapolations” (1) to arrive at the estimated $2 - $4bn of excess costs ▪ DuPont might say that Trian’s methodology (Approach #1 and Approach #2) is flawed because – i) DuPont allocates corporate costs by employee count, and – ii) Coatings had an oversized number of employees, thereby inflating the allocated / excess corporate costs at the business ▪ Regardless, by DuPont’s own methodology, there are $1.7bn of excess costs (1) James Collins, Executive Vice President of DuPont at Bank of America Merrill Lynch US Basic Materials Conference (12/10/2014) . (2) See page 71 of Trian’s White Paper, which was filed with the SEC on February 17, 2015.

Coatings: The Operational Improvements After The Transaction According to the August 2014 Axalta S - 1 filing and research reports, the private equity firms that acquired DuPont’s Coatings business made the following strategic and operational improvements: 1. Strengthened senior management : Replaced 12 of top 17 executives, including CEO and CFO 2. Created a results - driven culture, focused on profitable growth: Replaced 69 of top 140 managers 3. Accelerated organic net sales growth: – Changed strategy from DuPont strict “run and maintain” mode, in which DuPont took cash from Coatings to grow other businesses – Invested in high growth areas such as China – Aggressively pursued lost market share in the Refinish and Light Vehicle businesses – Aggressively promoted industrial coatings – Realigned businesses on a global versus regional basis 4. Expanded EBITDA margins: F rom 8% in 2011 to 20% in 2014 (1) – Eliminated $229m of excess corporate costs (2) – Transitioned to a more cost effective, coordinated system for CEO, CFO, CAO (e.g., IT platform, global procurement) – Eliminated low margin customer business – Improved customer pricing policy (now taking regular and selective price increases) 5. Invested in European manufacturing to reposition the region for growth (expects $100m of incremental EBITDA in 2017) 6. Generated nearly $200m of working capital funds immediately by creating third party credit terms and improving inventory position (3) Source: Axalta Form S - 1 filed on 8/20/14, Trian estimates SEC Filings, Robert W Baird report 1/12/14,Bank of America report 12/22/14, Citi report 12/22/14. (1) Compares 2011 EBITDA margin reported by DuPont and 2014 EBITDA reported by Axalta. DuPont EBITDA adjusted for unallocated cor por ate expense (2% of sales), and adds back non - cash items and certain pension expense to make it comparable. Axalta EBITDA is Axalta’s Adjusted Operating Income plus D&A. Metric differs slightly from Axalta’s Adjusted EBITDA (as reported) as it excludes other expense (income) and dividend to non - controlling interest to make EB ITDA comparable. (2) Compares 2011 EBITDA reported by DuPont, adjusted for allocated corporate, pension, and non - cash items to 2011 EBITDA reported by Axalta with certain adjustments for non - cash items and pension expense to make comparable with DuPont. (3) According to Axalta cash flow statement in the S - 1, the “changes in operating assets and liabilities” provided a source of cash of $199.2m in 2013. 84
