On September 30, 2008, CKE Restaurants, Inc. (the "Company") received notice that the entire $15,167,000 principal amount of its outstanding 4.0% Convertible Subordinated Notes due 2023 (the "Notes") had been converted into approximately 1,787,000 shares of the Company’s common stock by the holders thereof. The Notes were originally issued pursuant to an Indenture, dated as of September 29, 2003, between the Company and Wells Fargo Bank Minnesota, National Association (successor-in-interest to J.P. Morgan Trust Company, National Association). Pursuant to the Indenture, the Company had previously delivered notice to the holders of the Notes indicating that the Company intended to redeem the Notes in full and informing the holders of their right to convert the Notes into the Company’s common stock at any time prior to the close of business on September 30, 2008, which was the last trading day immediately preceding the proposed redemption date. Each of the holders elected to convert their Notes in lieu of having the Notes redeemed by the Company.
