We have not included any of these in our analysis Breakfast offering at Wendy's ■ Could be worth an incremental $5 per share depending on success of rollout ► Share repurchase opportunity ■ Management has the ability to sell real estate or sale-leaseback stores and repurchase over 40% of Wendy's current standalone market cap ■ Combined company has only 1.9x Net Debt / "Unfixed" EBITDA ■ Sizable share repurchase before "fixing" the business could create significant incremental returns ▸ International growth opportunity for Wendy's concept 29#31Conclusion: Why We Like Wendy's ✓ Good business trading at an attractive price even on an "unfixed" and standalone basis Significant turnaround opportunity at Wendy's company- operated stores ✓ Triarc offer brings experienced leadership and allows Wendy's to purchase Arby's at an attractive price ✓ Triarc offer allows Wendy's shareholders to benefit from the majority of the G&A synergies Wendy's / Arby's combination could be worth over $50 per share after achieving cost savings 30
