from the U.S. Treasury Department’s Office of Foreign Assets Control authorizing it to engage in activities
related to the winding down of the office in Iran and completed the process of winding down its office. The
foreign subsidiary did not engage in any activities in Iran other than wind-down activities in 2015, or have
any revenues or profits attributable to activities in Iran during 2015.
Employees
As of December 26, 2015, we and our consolidated subsidiaries employed approximately 263,000 people
worldwide, including approximately 110,000 people within the United States. In certain countries, our
employment levels are subject to seasonal variations. We or our subsidiaries are a party to numerous collective
bargaining agreements. We expect that we will be able to renegotiate these collective bargaining agreements
on satisfactory terms when they expire. We believe that relations with our employees are generally good.
