Item 4.

Purpose of Transaction.

The Reporting Persons acquired the Shares to which this Schedule 13D relates because they believe the Shares are undervalued and represent an attractive investment opportunity. The Reporting Persons and JANA Partners Management, LP, a Delaware limited partnership ("JANA"), with the assistance of the Jana Individuals (as defined by Item 6), intend to have discussions with the Issuer's board of directors (the "Board") and management regarding topics including, without limitation, the following: (i) the litany of self-inflicted missteps that have led to underperformance for shareholders; (ii) financial performance and core operating deficiencies in areas, including customer demand planning and retention, raw potato procurement, ERP system implementation and management, product and manufacturing quality assurance, pricing strategy, retail execution and overhead cost management; (iii) capital spending, including aligning capacity expansion projects with utilization, improving returns on capital, re-evaluating long-term capital expenditure targets and providing detailed public disclosure on other capital spending amounts; (iv) share repurchase strategy and execution; (v) investor communications, including by acknowledging the magnitude of impact from the Issuer's mis-execution on its recent capacity utilization levels, which we believe trail North American peers; (vi) management compensation practices, including adding targets focused on returns on capital to deprioritize pursuit of growth at any cost; (vii) environmental, health and safety practices; (viii) oversight and disclosure regarding use of the Issuer's corporate resources; (ix) corporate governance, board composition and management; and (x) initiation of a review of strategic alternatives, particularly given the history of interest in the Issuer and the Issuer's poor performance for shareholders.

No Reporting Person has any present plan or proposal which would relate to or result in any of the matters set forth in subparagraphs (a) - (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D, except as set forth herein or such as would occur upon or in connection with completion of, or following, any of the actions discussed herein. The Reporting Persons intend to review their investment in the Issuer on a continuing basis. Depending on various factors, including, without limitation, the outcome of any discussions referenced above, the Issuer's financial position and strategic direction, actions taken by management or the Board, price levels of the Shares, conditions in the securities market and general economic and industry conditions, the Reporting Persons may in the future take such actions with respect to their investment in the Issuer as they deem appropriate, including, without limitation, purchasing additional Shares or selling some or all of their Shares, engaging in discussions with stockholders of the Issuer or other third parties about the Issuer and the Reporting Persons' investment, engaging in short selling of or any hedging or similar transactions with respect to the Shares, including swaps and other derivative instruments, and/or otherwise changing their intention with respect to any and all matters referred to in Item 4 of Schedule 13D. The Reporting Persons may, at any time and from time to time, review or reconsider their position and/or change their intention with respect to all matters referred to in Item 4.

Item 5.
