This Amendment No. 3 supplements the information set forth in the Schedule 13D filed by Corvex Management LP and Keith Meister with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission on August 23, 2012 and all amendments thereto (collectively, the “Schedule 13D”) relating to the shares of Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Shares”) of Ralcorp Holdings, Inc., a Missouri corporation (the “Issuer”).  Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Schedule 13D.
 
The information set forth in response to each separate Item below shall be deemed to be a response to all Items where such information is relevant.  The Schedule 13D is supplementally amended as follows.
 
Item 5.                 Interest in Securities of the Issuer.
 
(a) – (b) Corvex may be deemed to be the beneficial owner of 2,031,540 Shares, which represents approximately 3.69% of the Issuer’s outstanding Shares.  Corvex may be deemed to have sole power to vote and sole power to dispose of such Shares.  By virtue of his position as control person of the general partner of Corvex, Mr. Meister may be considered to beneficially own such Shares.
 
The percentage in the immediately foregoing paragraph is calculated based on a total of 55,049,106 Shares outstanding as of November 26, 2012 (based on the Issuer’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed November 29, 2012).
 
(c)           Except as set forth on Exhibit 2 to the Schedule 13D, there have been no transactions with respect to the Shares during the sixty days prior to the date hereof by either Corvex or Mr. Meister.
 
(d)           The limited partners of (or investors in) each of two or more private investment funds, or their respective subsidiaries or affiliated entities, for which Corvex or its affiliates acts as general partner and/or investment adviser have the right to participate in the receipt of dividends from, or proceeds from the sale of, the Shares held for the accounts of their respective funds in accordance with their respective limited partnership interests (or investment percentages) in their respective funds.
 
(e)           December 14, 2012.
 
Item 7.                 Material to be Filed as Exhibits.
 
Exhibit 1 - Agreement between Corvex and Keith Meister to file this Schedule 13D and any amendments thereto jointly on behalf of each of them.

                              Exhibit 2 - Transactions in the Shares effected in the past 60 days.
