(“ Metro ” and, together with PBG and PepsiCo, the “ Filing Persons ”).
 
This Final Amendment is being filed pursuant to Rule 13e-3(d)(3) to report the results of the transaction that is the subject of this Transaction Statement.
 
Item 15: Additional Information.
 
Item 1011(b) of Regulation M-A:
 
Item 1011(b) is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:
 
On February 17, 2010, the stockholders of PBG approved the adoption of the Agreement and Plan of Merger dated as of August 3, 2009 among PepsiCo, PBG and Metro (the “ Merger Agreement ”) at PBG’s Special Meeting of Stockholders held on that date.  On February 25, 2010, the Federal Trade Commission granted early termination of the waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, for PepsiCo’s acquisition of PBG.
 
On February 26, 2010, PepsiCo filed a Certificate of Merger with the New Jersey Division of Revenue and a Certificate of Merger with the Secretary of the State of Delaware, pursuant to which PBG merged with and into Metro, with Metro continuing as the surviving corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of PepsiCo (the “ Merger ”).
 
Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, each outstanding share of common stock of PBG not owned by Metro, PepsiCo or a subsidiary of PepsiCo or held by PBG as treasury stock (each, a “ PBG Share ”) was cancelled and converted into the right to receive, at the holder’s election, either 0.6432 shares of common stock of PepsiCo or $36.50 in cash, without interest, subject to proration provisions which provide that an aggregate 50% of such outstanding PBG Shares were converted into the right to receive common stock of PepsiCo and an aggregate 50% of such outstanding PBG Shares were converted into the right to receive cash.  Subject to the proration provisions described in the preceding sentence, each share with respect to which a valid cash election was not made was converted into the right to receive 0.6432 shares of PepsiCo common stock at the effective time of the Merger. Shares of PBG common stock and PBG Class B common stock held by PepsiCo and Metro were cancelled and shares held by subsidiaries of PepsiCo (other than Metro) were converted into the right to receive 0.6432 shares of PepsiCo common stock at the effective time of the Merger.
 
As a result of the Merger, PBG’s common stock ceased to trade on the New York Stock Exchange (“ NYSE ”) as of the close of trading on February 26, 2010, will be delisted from the NYSE and will be deregistered under the Exchange Act.
