 Wendy’s International, Inc.

 March 17, 2006 
 THIS
AMENDED AND RESTATED AGREEMENT, made as of October 29, 2007, between Wendy’s International, Inc., an Ohio corporation (the “Company”), and Kerrii B. Anderson (the “Grantee”). 
 WHEREAS, the Company has adopted the Wendy’s International, Inc. 2003 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) in order to provide
additional incentive to certain employees and directors of the Company and its Subsidiaries; and 
 WHEREAS, as of March 17, 2006 (the
“Date of Grant”), the Committee had determined to grant to the Grantee an Award of Performance Shares as provided herein to encourage the Grantee’s efforts toward the continuing success of the Company; and 
 WHEREAS, to avoid the negative consequences of a violation of Code section 409A, the Committee and Grantee have agreed to amend the prior award agreement
issued on the Date of Grant, as set forth herein. 
 NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereto agree as follows: 
  

	1.	Grant of Performance Shares. 

 1.1 The Company
hereby grants to the Grantee an award of 16,210 Performance Shares (the “Award”), subject to adjustment pursuant to Sections 3 and 4 hereof and the execution and return of this Agreement by the Grantee (or the Grantee’s estate,
if applicable) to the Company as provided in Section 10 hereof. Subject to Sections 5 and 6 hereof, payment with respect to vested Earned Performance Shares shall be made entirely in Shares in accordance with Section 8 hereof. 

1.2 This Agreement shall be construed in accordance and consistent with, and subject to, the provisions of the Plan (the provisions of which are
hereby incorporated by reference) and, except as otherwise expressly set forth herein, the capitalized terms used in this Agreement shall have the same definitions as set forth in the Plan. 
  

	2.	Performance Cycle. 

 The Performance Cycle shall be
the Company’s 2006 fiscal year, beginning on January 2, 2006 and ending on December 31, 2006. 
  

	3.	Performance Objective and Formula. 

 3.1 The
Performance Objective established by the Committee with respect to the Performance Shares is positive diluted earnings per share. 







 3.2 If the Company achieves this Performance Objective during the Performance Cycle and the Committee
certifies to this result in accordance with Section 4 hereof, the Performance Shares shall be earned and, subject to Sections 4.1, 5, and 6.4 hereof, on May 1, 2007 (the “Issue Date”), the Grantee will be credited with a
number of Earned Performance Shares equal to the number of Performance Shares listed in Section 1.1 multiplied by a factor determined in accordance with the matrix set forth in Appendix A attached hereto. 
 For the purpose of applying the matrix set forth in Appendix A, net income shall be as reported on the Company’s income statement for fiscal 2006
with the following adjustments: 
 (i) disregarding the impact of (a) costs incurred in connection with the initial
public offering and any spin-off or other disposition of Tim Hortons Inc., including costs related to additional employees hired by Tim Hortons Inc. or its subsidiaries as a result of its becoming a separate reporting company, (b) interest
costs or other expense incurred by Tim Hortons Inc. related to revolving credit and other debt financing arrangements entered into by Tim Hortons Inc. in 2006, (c) the sale of equity of Tim Hortons Inc. in the initial public offering (which
will decrease the Company’s reported earnings attributable to earnings of Tim Hortons Inc.), (d) the Tim Hortons Inc. initial public offering and any spin-off or other disposition of Tim Hortons Inc. on the Company’s 2006 income tax
expense, (e) costs (including charges) incurred in connection with the sale or other disposition of one or more business units of the Company, (f) severance costs or other charges incurred in connection with the Company’s initiative
to reduce its overhead as part of an organizational restructuring of the Company, and related costs of outside consultants and advisors, or (g) new accounting standards or interpretations issued in 2006; 
 (ii) adding the budgeted consolidated earnings of Tim Hortons Inc. and any other business unit sold or otherwise disposed of to the
earnings results of the Company for any period in 2006 for which the earnings results of Tim Hortons Inc. and any other business unit sold or otherwise disposed of are not included in the consolidated earnings results of the Company; and 

(iii) adjusting the number of Performance Shares in the event of a spin-off of Tim Hortons Inc. prior to May 1, 2007, such that
the Fair Market Value of the Performance Shares (calculated as though the Fair Market Value of a Performance Share is equal to the Fair Market Value of a Share) immediately prior to the spin-off is equal to the Fair Market Value of the Performance
Shares (calculated in the same manner) immediately after the spin-off, and the number of Shares issued in settlement of the Earned Performance Shares shall be adjusted proportionately to the adjustment in the number of Performance Shares.

  

	4.	Determination of Award. 

 4.1 Determination
Notice. As soon as possible after the end of the Performance Cycle, the Committee will certify in writing whether the Performance Objective has been met for the Performance Cycle and determine the number of Earned Performance Shares, if any, in
accordance with the matrix set forth in Appendix A; provided, that, if the Committee certifies that the Performance Objective has been met, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, reduce the number of Earned Performance Shares which
may become payable to the Grantee with respect to the Award. The date of the Committee’s certification pursuant to this Section 4.1 shall hereinafter be referred to as the “Certification Date”. The Company will notify the
Grantee (or the executors or administrators of the Grantee’s estate, if appropriate) of the Committee’s 

  

 2 








 
certification following the Certification Date (such notice, the “Determination Notice”). The Determination Notice shall specify
(i) the Company’s reported diluted earnings per share, (ii) the Company’s reported net income as adjusted pursuant to Section 3.2, and (iii) the number of Earned Performance Shares, if any, calculated in accordance with
the Committee’s certification pursuant to this Section 4.1 and which may become payable to Grantee pursuant to Sections 6 or 7 hereof. 
 4.2 Dividend Equivalent Rights. As of the Issue Date, the Grantee shall also be issued a number of Dividend Equivalent Rights equal to the number of Earned Performance Shares. Each Dividend Equivalent Right represents the right to
receive all of the cash dividends that are or would be payable with respect to the Share represented by the Earned Performance Share to which the Dividend Equivalent Right relates. With respect to each Dividend Equivalent Right, any such cash
dividends shall be converted into additional Earned Performance Shares based on the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date such dividend is made (provided that no fractional Stock Units shall be granted). Each such additional Earned Performance
Share shall be subject to the same terms and conditions applicable to the Earned Performance Share to which the Dividend Equivalent Right relates, including, without limitation, the restrictions on transfer, forfeiture, vesting, voting and payment
provisions contained in Sections 6 through 9 of this Agreement. In the event that an Earned Performance Share is forfeited pursuant to Section 5 or 6 hereof, the related Dividend Equivalent Right shall also be forfeited. 
  

	5.	Forfeiture of Award Prior to Issue Date. 

 5.1

for profit or disclosed to unauthorized persons, confidential information or trade secrets of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, (ii) breached any contract with or violated any fiduciary obligation to the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries, or (iii) engaged in unlawful trading in the securities of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or of another company based on information gained as a result of that Grantee’s employment with, or status as a director to, the
Company or any of its Subsidiaries (each of (i), (ii) and (iii), an “Act of Misconduct”), the Award shall automatically terminate and the Grantee shall not be entitled to receive any Earned Performance Shares under
Section 4 hereof or otherwise under this Agreement.

Subsidiaries or continuance of service as a Board member. 
  

	12.	Adjustments. 

 To the extent permitted under
Section 162(m) of the Code and the regulations thereunder without adversely affecting the treatment of the Award as Performance-Based Compensation, the Committee shall adjust the Performance Objective to reflect the impact of specified

and local income taxes and other amounts as may be required by law to be withheld by the Company (the “Withholding Taxes”) with respect to such Earned Performance Shares. By executing and returning this Agreement in the manner
provided in Section 10 hereof, the Grantee (or the Grantee’s estate) shall be deemed to elect to have the Company withhold a portion of such Earned Performance Shares having an aggregate Fair Market Value equal to the Withholding Taxes in
satisfaction of the Withholding Taxes, such election to continue in effect until the Grantee (or the Grantee’s estate) notifies the Company at least four days prior to the applicable vesting date that the Grantee (or the Grantee’s estate)
shall satisfy such obligation in cash, in which event the Company shall not withhold a portion of such Earned Performance Shares as otherwise provided in this Section 13.

 The Grantee hereby
acknowledges receipt of a copy of the Plan and agrees to be bound by all the terms and provisions thereof.

 Should any provision of this
Agreement be held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable or invalid for any reason, the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall not be affected by such holding and shall continue in full force in accordance with their terms.

construction and performance of this Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of Ohio without giving effect to the conflicts of laws principles thereof.
