(Wendy’s Restaurants)

Wendy’s Restaurants is the issuer of, and certain of its domestic subsidiaries have guaranteed amounts outstanding under, our 10% senior notes. Each of the guaranteeing subsidiaries is a direct or indirect 100% owned subsidiary of Wendy’s Restaurants and each has fully and unconditionally guaranteed the 10% senior notes on a joint and several basis.

As a result of the closing of the sale of Arby’s on July 4, 2011 as described in Note 2, Arby’s and its subsidiaries are no longer guaranteeing subsidiaries of the amounts outstanding under the 10% senior notes. Accordingly, the condensed consolidating financial statements presented below have been retroactively revised to reflect Arby’s and its subsidiaries as non-guarantors for all periods presented. Information related to Arby’s has been reflected as discontinued operations in the condensed consolidating statements of operations for the period from January 3, 2011 through July 3, 2011 and the three months and nine months ended October 3, 2010. Arby’s cash flows prior to its sale (for the period from January 3, 2011 through July 3, 2011 and for the nine months ended October 3, 2010) have been included in, and not separately reported from, all our cash flows.

The following are included in the presentation of our: (1) Condensed Consolidating Balance Sheets as of October 2, 2011 and January 2, 2011, (2) Condensed Consolidating Statements of Operations for the three months and nine months ended October 2, 2011 and October 3, 2010, and (3) Condensed Consolidating Statements of Cash Flows for the nine months ended October 2, 2011 and October 3, 2010 to reflect:

(a)Wendy’s Restaurants (the “Parent”);
(b)the 10% senior notes guarantor subsidiaries as a group;
(c)the 10% senior notes non-guarantor subsidiaries as a group;
(d)elimination entries necessary to combine the Parent with the guarantor and non-guarantor subsidiaries; and
(e)Wendy’s Restaurants on a consolidated basis.

Substantially all of our domestic restricted subsidiaries are guarantors of the 10% senior notes. Certain of our subsidiaries, including our foreign subsidiaries and national advertising funds, do not guarantee the 10% senior notes.
  
For purposes of presentation of such consolidating information, investments in subsidiaries are accounted for by the Parent on the equity method. The elimination entries are principally necessary to eliminate intercompany balances and transactions.
