Treatment of Sara Lee Restricted Stock Units Held by Our Employees

As of May 1, 2006, Mr. Chaden and Mr. Noll held approximately 81,000 RSUs that vest if and to the extent specific performance goals are achieved. Mr. Chaden and Mr. Noll will continue to vest in these RSUs over the applicable performance period subject to the attainment of Sara Lee performance measures, and we will reimburse Sara Lee for the cost of these units.

In addition, as of July 1, 2006, our employees held approximately 1,153,824 RSUs granted pursuant to Sara Lee’s incentive stock plans. On the distribution date, all outstanding RSUs (other than those described in the preceding paragraph) held by our employees will vest and be payable in the form of shares of Sara Lee common stock; the number of shares delivered will be adjusted (increased) as described in the next paragraph to reflect the fact that holders of RSUs will not receive our shares in the spin off. RSUs held by retirees and former employees will be subject to the same treatment.

We have been informed by Sara Lee that the Sara Lee Compensation and Employee Benefits Committee expects to adjust the Sara Lee RSUs using a method analogous to the “ratio” test set forth in Section 424 of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder in order to preserve the pre-spin off intrinsic value of the Sara Lee RSUs. Thus, the Sara Lee Compensation and Employee Benefits Committee intends to increase the number of shares of Sara Lee common stock subject to the RSUs such that, for each Sara Lee RSU, the aggregate fair market value of Sara Lee common stock subject to the Sara Lee RSU immediately after the spin off will be equal to the aggregate fair market value of the Sara Lee common stock subject to the Sara Lee RSU immediately before the spin off.
