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:
CAT provided Morgan Stanley with financial projections through 2011 that attempted to demonstrate
CATs maximum capacity to fund research and development based on revenues from its royalty streams
including HUMIRA and current cash balances. While Morgan Stanley reviewed the projections in the
context of its opinion, Morgan Stanley did not deem the projections to be material to its opinion
for the reasons outlined below:
|
|
The purpose of the projections was to estimate the maximum that
CAT could spend on research and development and the projections
were not intended to represent managements view as to the
financial profile of the business. The projections focused on
cash utilisation rather than accounting profit and loss. |
|
|
As CAT had a number of pipeline candidates in the early stages of
development, the projection period provided through 2011 was not
long enough to capture any potential revenue for these projects. |
|
|
The discounted cash flow methodology employed by Morgan Stanley
was based on assessing value on a component-by-component basis
including the value of each product candidate and the technology
platform of CAT. As a result, Morgan Stanley did not discount the
cash flows of CAT on a consolidated basis and thus the
consolidated financial projections were not used in the discounted
cash flow methodology. |
