Amendment No. 5, the Schedule 13D), by Pershing Square Capital Management, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (Pershing Square); PS Management GP, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (PS
Management); and William A. Ackman, a citizen of the United States of America (together with Pershing Square and PS Management, the Reporting Persons), relating to the Class A common stock, no par value (the
Common Stock), of Mondelez International, Inc., a Virginia corporation (the Issuer). Capitalized terms used but not defined in this amendment shall have the meanings set forth in the Schedule 13D.
Except as specifically amended by this Amendment No. 5, the Schedule 13D is unchanged.
Item 1. | Security and Issuer |
Item 1 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented to
add the following information:
As of October 6, 2017, the Reporting Persons beneficially own an aggregate of 74,983,195 shares of
Common Stock (the Subject Shares), which number includes: (i) 13,642,445 shares of Common Stock, and (ii) 61,340,750 shares of Common Stock underlying American-style call options.
The Subject Shares represent approximately 4.97% of the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Issuer.
Item 3. | Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration |
Item 3 of the Schedule 13D is hereby
amended and supplemented to add the following information:
The source of funding for the transactions reported herein was derived from
the respective capital of the Pershing Square Funds.
Item 5. | Interest in Securities of the Issuer |
Items 5 (a) and (b) of the Original Schedule
13D are hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following information:
(a), (b) As of October 6, 2017, in addition to
beneficially owning the Subject Shares stated above, representing approximately 4.97% of the outstanding Common Shares, the Pershing Square Funds have economic exposure to approximately 8,388,150 notional Common Shares referenced in the Swaps (as
defined below), bringing their total aggregate economic exposure to 83,371,345 Common Shares (approximately 5.53% of the outstanding Common Shares). The percentage calculations in this paragraph are based on 1,507,639,931 shares of Common Stock

Item 5(e) of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following
information:
As of October 6, 2017, each of the Reporting Persons ceased to be the beneficial owner of more than five percent of the
Common Stock.
Item 6. | Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships With Respect to Securities of the Issuer. |
The Reporting Persons, for the accounts of the Pershing Square Funds, unwound certain American-style call options (with a 100 multiplier), sold
Common Stock, and purchased certain cash-settled total return swaps (Swaps), as further detailed in Exhibit 99.10.
None of the options gives the Reporting Persons direct or indirect voting, investment or dispositive control over any securities of the Issuer
or requires the counterparty thereto to acquire, hold, vote or dispose of any securities of the Issuer.
None of the Swaps gives the
Reporting Persons direct or indirect voting, investment or dispositive control over any securities of the Issuer or requires the counterparty thereto to acquire, hold, vote or dispose of any securities of the Issuer. In addition, the Swaps do not
provide for any physical settlement. Accordingly, the Reporting Persons disclaim any beneficial ownership of any notional Common Shares that may be referenced in the Swaps or Common Shares or other securities or financial instruments that may be
held from time to time by the counterparty to the Swaps. The counterparty to the Swap is an affiliate of Nomura. A form of the Swaps has been previously attached as Exhibit 99.6 to the schedule 13D dated November 12, 2014, filed by the
Reporting Persons, which is incorporated herein by reference. The foregoing summary of the Swaps is qualified in its entirety by reference to the language in such Exhibit 99.6.
Except as described herein, the Reporting Persons have no contracts, arrangements, understandings or relationships (legal or otherwise) with
respect to any securities of the Issuer.
Item 7. | Material to be Filed as Exhibits |
