Explanation of Responses:

* If the form is filed by more than one reporting person, see Instruction 5(b)(v).
** Intentional misstatements or omissions of facts constitute Federal Criminal Violations. See 18 U.S.C. 1001 and 15 U.S.C. 78ff(a).
(1) IAT Group Inc. directly owns 16,998,924 ordinary shares of Fresh Del Monte Produce Inc. IAT Group Inc. is owned by the members of the Abu-Ghazaleh family, including Sumaya Abu-Ghazaleh. Individually, no Abu-Ghazaleh family member owns a controlling interest in IAT Group Inc. Nevertheless, because each of the IAT Group Inc. shareholders votes with the other family members, the Abu-Ghazaleh family jointly controls IAT Group Inc. As a result, each individual Abu-Ghazaleh family member may be deemed to beneficially own all of the ordinary shares directly owned by IAT Group Inc; however, each Abu-Ghazaleh family member disclaims beneficial ownership of such ordinary shares except to the extent of his or her pecuniary interest therein.
