There was following contingent payment by Diageo to General Mills. At the closing Diageo would establish an escrow fund of $642 mil. Upon the first anniversary date of the closing Diageo was required to pay from this fund an amount to General Mills depending on General Mills share price.

$0.45 mil if the average daily share price were $38 or less.
