Remarks:
The reporting person disclaims beneficial ownership of the options to purchase an aggregate of 4,047,618 shares of the Issuer that were granted by Related Fund Management, LLC ("Related") and Corvex Management LP ("Corvex") to EGI-CW Holdings, L.L.C. ("EGI-CW") pursuant to an agreement entered into between Related, Corvex and EGI-CW on February 11, 2014. EGI-CW is indirectly controlled by Chai Trust Company, LLC, an Illinois limited liability company ("Chai"). On June 2, 2014, the date the original Form 3 to which this amendment relates was filed, the extent, if any, of the reporting person's pecuniary interest in the options had not been determined. On June 19, 2014, subsequent to the date of the original Form 3, two entities, in which trusts established for the benefit of the reporting person's family, the trustee of each of which is Chai, indirectly own interests, became members of EGI-CW, effective as of February 5, 2014. The reporting person is not an officer or a director of Chai and does not have voting or dispositive power over the options, and therefore disclaims beneficial ownership thereof, except to the extent of any pecuniary interest therein indirectly held by the reporting person's family.
