CUSIP No. 015857105

In addition to the Shares beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons as set forth in this filing, and while the Reporting Persons have no current knowledge of the following holdings, the Reporting Persons understand that Toronto Dominion Bank and TD Asset Management Inc. (together, “TD”) had investment discretion over 24,788,418 Shares, listed call options with respect to 534,700 Shares and listed put options with respect to 313,700 Shares as of March 31, 2023, which would represent beneficial ownership over approximately 3.7% of the outstanding Shares as of such date, as such information was set forth in the Form 13F-HR filings filed by TD on May 11, 2023 and May 10, 2023. As reported in the Form ADV filed by Starboard Value LP, Toronto Dominion Bank is included as an indirect control person under Schedule B/C Indirect Owners of the Form ADV as a result of the closing of the acquisition of Cowen Inc. by Toronto Dominion Bank. The validity of the indirect transfer of Cowen Inc.’s ownership interest in Starboard Value LP is subject to an ongoing dispute. The Reporting Persons disclaim the existence of a “group” within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act with TD or any other person other than the other Reporting Persons.

(d)No person other than the Reporting Persons is known to have the right to receive, or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or proceeds from the sale of, the Shares.
(e)Not applicable.
Item 6.Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships With Respect to Securities of the Issuer.

Starboard V&O Fund has entered into certain cash-settled total return swap agreements with Bank of America (“BA”) as the counterparty (the “Swap Agreements”). The swaps with BA constitute economic exposure to an aggregate of 17,274,350 notional Shares, representing approximately 2.5% of the outstanding Shares, which have a maturity date of September 9, 2024. The Swap Agreements provide Starboard V&O Fund with economic results that are comparable to the economic results of ownership but do not provide it with the power to vote or direct the voting or dispose of or direct the disposition of the Shares that are the subject of the Swap Agreements (such shares, the “Subject Shares”).

On June 30, 2023, the Reporting Persons entered into a Joint Filing Agreement in which the Reporting Persons agreed to the joint filing on behalf of each of them of statements on Schedule 13D with respect to the securities of the Issuer to the extent required by applicable law. The Joint Filing Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.

Other than as described herein, there are no contracts, arrangements, understandings or relationships among the Reporting Persons, or between the Reporting Persons and any other person, with respect to the securities of the Issuer.
