$11,024 $3,913 $85,417
The Company incurred corporate restructuring charges primarily related to severance in conjunction with
the Wendy’s Merger in 2009 and 2008. We do not expect to incur any additional corporate restructuring
charges with respect to the Wendy’s Merger in 2010.
The facilities relocation charges incurred and recognized in our Arby’s restaurant segment for 2008 and
2007 represent additional costs principally related to the now completed Company combination of its existing
restaurant operations with those of the RTM Restaurant Group (“RTM”) following the acquisition of RTM in
2005.
The general corporate charges for 2008 and 2007 principally relate to the transfer of substantially all of
our senior executive responsibilities to the ARG executive team (the “Corporate Restructuring”). In
