risks
related

disruption of management’s attention from ongoing business operations due to the pending merger, the effect of the announcement
of the proposed merger on either party’s relationships with their respective customers, vendors, lenders, operating results and
businesses generally, including potential loss of customers or sales, the outcome of any legal proceedings related to the proposed
merger, the general risks associated with the respective businesses of Sysco and US Foods, including the risk of interruption of
supplies due to lack of long-term contracts, intense competition, severe weather, crop conditions, work stoppages, inflation risks, the
impact of fuel prices, adverse publicity, labor issues, and risks impacting the economy generally, including the risks that the current
general economic conditions will deteriorate, or that consumer confidence in the economy may not increase and decreases in
