("JBS USA") and the other reporting persons identified therein (including the Reporting Owners listed above) (the "13D Reporting Persons") with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on January 7, 2010, the Amended and Restated Employment Agreement, dated as of January 27, 2009, between Pilgrim's Pride Corporation ("PPC") and Don Jackson provides that 1,542,828 shares of Old Common Stock (as defined in the Schedule 13D) will vest, effective as of December 27, 2009, in Don Jackson's favor in the event that certain performance conditions set forth therein are determined to have been satisfied. |
| 2. On January 18, 2010, PPC determined that such performance conditions had been satisfied. Therefore, in accordance with the terms of the Stock Purchase Agreement, dated as of September 16, 2009, as amended (the "Stock Purchase Agreement"), between PPC and JBS USA, the number of shares of common stock of PPC ("Common Stock") acquired by JBS USA on December 28, 2009 (the "Closing Date") was 137,140,425 (in lieu of the 134,397,620 shares of Common Stock previously reported on the Form 3 filed by the Reporting Owners listed above with the SEC on January 7, 2010). |
| 3. The shares of Common Stock were acquired for no consideration separate from the $800 million in cash paid by JBS USA to PPC on the Closing Date pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement. |
| 4. As more particularly described in the Schedule 13D, the Reporting Owners listed above, together with the other 13D Reporting Persons, share beneficial ownership of the 137,140,425 shares of Common Stock directly owned by JBS USA. The ownership of all of the Reporting Owners listed above, other than JBS USA, is indirect. |
