From time to time, Trian Fund Management, L.P. may provide the following statement related to The Procter & Gamble Company to certain media outlets and other individuals:

“We have seen the material that P&G prepared on Trian’s investments. It is unfortunate that P&G and its advisors are distorting the facts to denigrate Nelson Peltz’s track record and intentions. The real issue that P&G shareholders must address in this proxy contest is P&G’s long history of share price underperformance, continuing market share declines and suffocating bureaucracy which obscures accountability. As we approach the annual meeting on October 10, it is clear that having Nelson Peltz on the Board will help revitalize P&G as he has at many other companies over several decades.”
