Facilities Relocation and Corporate Restructuring

The charges of $13.5 million in 2005 consisted of $12.0 million related to our restaurant segment and $1.5 million of general corporate charges. The $12.0 million of charges in our restaurant segment principally related to combining our existing restaurant operations with those of RTM following the RTM Acquisition and relocating the corporate office of the restaurant group from Fort Lauderdale, Florida to new offices in Atlanta, Georgia. RTM and AFA Service Corporation, an independently controlled advertising cooperative, concurrently relocated from their former facilities in Atlanta to the new offices in Atlanta. The charges consisted of severance and employee retention incentives, employee relocation costs, lease termination costs and office relocation expenses. The general corporate charges of $1.5 million related to our decision in December 2005 not to move our corporate offices from New York City to a newly leased office facility in Rye Brook, New York. This charge represented our estimate as of the end of 2005 of all future costs, net of estimated sublease rental income, related to the Rye Brook lease subsequent to the decision not to move the corporate offices.

Facilities Relocation and Corporate Restructuring

       Our facilities relocation and corporate restructuring charges of $13.5 million in 2005 consist of $12.0 million related to our restaurant business segment and $1.5 million of general corporate charges. The $12.0 million of charges in our restaurant segment principally related to combining our existing restaurant operations with those of RTM following the RTM Acquisition and relocating the corporate office of the restaurant group from Fort Lauderdale, Florida to new offices in Atlanta, Georgia. RTM concurrently relocated from its former facility in Atlanta to the new offices in Atlanta. The charges consisted of severance and employee retention incentives, employee relocation costs, lease termination costs and office relocation expenses. The general corporate charges of $1.5 million related to our decision in December 2005 not to move our corporate offices from New York City to a newly leased office facility in Rye Brook, New York. This charge represents our estimate of all future costs, net of estimated sublease rental income, related to the Rye Brook lease subsequent to the decision not to move the corporate offices.

       We expect to incur approximately $1.7 million of additional facilities relocation and corporation restructuring charges in our restaurant segment in 2006 for additional severance and employee retention incentives and employee relocation costs.
