CALCULATION OF FILING FEE
     
Transaction Valuation(1)   Amount of Filing Fee(1)(2)
     
$427,428,792
  $45,735
 
(1)  For purposes of calculating the filing fee pursuant to Rule 0-11(d), the transaction value of the CAT Shares and CAT ADSs (each CAT ADS represents one CAT Share) to be received by AstraZeneca, assuming acceptance of the Offer by holders in the United States, is calculated as follows: 17,191,000 CAT Shares (including CAT Shares represented by CAT ADSs) in the United States, representing 40% of the entire issued share capital not already owned by AstraZeneca, multiplied by 1,320 pence per CAT Share, the cash consideration being offered per CAT Share, which yields £226,921,210, converted to U.S. dollars at the daily noon buying rate for pounds sterling in New York certified by the New York Federal Reserve Bank for customs purposes on May 15, 2006, of £1=$1.8836, which yields $427,428,792, multiplied by 0.0001070, which yields $45,735. Each of the capitalized terms used is defined in the Offer Document dated May 23, 2006.

ITEM 13.     INFORMATION REQUIRED BY SCHEDULE 13E-3.
Item 8. Fairness of the Transaction
This Amendment amends and supplements Item 8 under Item 13 hereof as follows:
Fairness determinations to unaffiliated holders of CAT Securities
In the context of the Offer Document and related materials, any statements about the determination of fairness of the Offer to the holders of CAT Securities by either the AstraZeneca Entities or CAT should be read and understood to relate to a determination of the fairness of the Offer to the unaffiliated holders of CAT Securities (i.e., holders other than the AstraZeneca Entities).
Further information on the fairness determinations by AstraZeneca Entities
In the context of the Offer, the primary focus of AstraZeneca’s financial analysis was on the value of intellectual property rights and other intangible assets of CAT. That fact, when coupled with the fact that neither net book value nor liquidation value were deemed to be material considerations for the AstraZeneca Entities, means that CAT’s “going concern value” was a factor in its fairness determinations and is reflected in the discussions in the paragraph entitled “Offer price” on page 35 of the Offer Document.
AstraZeneca did not request or obtain a fairness opinion from Goldman Sachs International because the financial and operational analyses were conducted by AstraZeneca and it was not considered necessary or market practice in the United Kingdom to obtain such an opinion.
Further information on the fairness determinations by the CAT Board
For the avoidance of doubt, the CAT Board believes the Offer to be substantively and procedurally fair to all unaffiliated holders of CAT Securities.
As stated in paragraph 3 of the Part III of the Offer Document, the CAT Board considered a number of factors in making its fairness determination, including CAT’s current and anticipated business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects, short and medium-term expectations of profitability and related forward-looking issues. Those considerations, when coupled with the fact that neither net book value nor liquidation value were deemed to be material considerations for the CAT Board’s determinations, means that CAT’s “going concern value” was a factor in its fairness determinations.
The CAT Board did not, and does not, consider valuations based on net book value or liquidation value to be generally considered appropriate for companies such as CAT and, as a result, were not considered relevant to the CAT Board’s fairness determination. For example, although the Offer price is 1,320 pence per CAT Share, the net book value per CAT Share, which is disclosed in paragraph 11.13 of Appendix V on page 147 of the Offer Document, was 341 pence, significantly below the Offer price.
The CAT Board did not consider it necessary to retain a separate unaffiliated representative for the non-executive directors on the CAT Board because none of the directors of CAT is an affiliate of AstraZeneca for U.S. federal securities law purposes and, in addition, a majority of CAT’s directors are non-executive directors, all of whom voted to recommend the Offer as stated in paragraph 5 of Part III of the Offer Document. Furthermore, CAT is an English public limited company and, while certain U.S. companies may consider retaining such a representative in connection with state law conflicts of interest provisions, there is no requirement under English company law to do so nor is it usual for an English company to do so in circumstances such as the Offer.
The CAT Board did not believe that the payments to Morgan Stanley had a material impact on the CAT Board’s determination of fairness of the Offer. The CAT Board appointed Morgan Stanley because it wished to retain the advice of financial experts in these matters and was required to obtain competent independent advice in connection with the Offer under the City Code. CAT believes that is customary in the United Kingdom for payments to the financial adviser to be staggered, as was done with Morgan Stanley, and the amounts payable to Morgan Stanley are what may customarily have been expected in these circumstances.
Role of CAT Offer Committee
For the avoidance of doubt, the CAT Offer Committee of the Board was appointed to deal solely with administrative matters related to the execution of the Offer. This committee was not formed to consider the fairness of the Offer and made no such determination.
