McDONALD’S CORPORATION
AMENDED AND RESTATED 2012 OMNIBUS STOCK OWNERSHIP PLAN
Approved by shareholders and effective as of May 21, 2020
THE PLAN
McDonald’s Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), established the Amended and Restated McDonald’s Corporation 2012 Omnibus Stock Ownership Plan, which was submitted for approval to the Company’s shareholders at the May 21, 2020 Annual Shareholders’ Meeting. Subject to shareholder approval, the Company desires to amend and restate the McDonald’s Corporation 2012 Omnibus Stock Ownership Plan, which was approved by the Company’s shareholders on May 24, 2012 and became effective on June 1, 2012. In the event the Company’s shareholders approve the Amended and Restated McDonald’s Corporation 2012 Omnibus Stock Ownership Plan at the May 21, 2020 Annual Shareholders’ Meeting, references to “the Plan” shall be the plan so approved.  In the event that the shareholders do not approve the amended and restated plan at the May 21, 2020 Annual Shareholders’ Meeting, references to “the Plan” shall mean the plan as it was in effect as of June 1, 2012.  
The Plan permits the grant of stock options, stock bonuses, dividend equivalents, restricted stock units and other stock‐based awards. The Plan replaces the Amended and Restated 2001 Omnibus Stock Ownership Plan, as amended through February 9, 2011, and applies to all Awards (as hereinafter defined) granted on or after June 1, 2012, subject to variations as required to comply with local laws and regulations applicable outside the United States.
1.Purpose
The purpose of this Plan is to advance the interests of the Company by encouraging and enabling the acquisition of a larger personal financial interest in the Company by those Employees and non‐Employee directors upon whose judgment and efforts the Company is largely dependent for the successful conduct of its operations. It is anticipated that the acquisition of such financial interest and Stock ownership will stimulate the efforts of such Employees and directors on behalf of the Company, strengthen their desire to continue in the service of the Company, and encourage shareholder and entrepreneurial perspectives through Stock ownership. It is also anticipated that the opportunity to obtain such financial interest and Stock ownership will prove attractive to promising new Employees and will assist the Company in attracting such Employees.

3.Scope of this Plan
(a)In addition to any shares returned to the Prior Plans as described in (d) below, a total number of shares of Stock may be delivered to Grantees pursuant to this Plan of 56 million, subject to the other provisions of this Section 3 and to adjustment as provided in Section 22. Such shares may be treasury shares or newly‐issued shares or both, as may be determined from time to time by the Board or by the Committee appointed pursuant to Section 4.
(b)Subject to adjustment as provided in Section 22, the maximum number of shares of Stock for which stock options and stock appreciation rights may be granted to any Grantee in any one‐year period shall be 2 million. Subject to the other provisions of this Section 3 and subject to adjustment as provided in Section 22, not more than 1,000,000 Bonus Shares of Stock may be granted under this Plan.
(c)If and to the extent an Award granted under this Plan shall, after the Initial Effective Date, expire or terminate for any reason without having been exercised in full, or shall be forfeited or settled for cash, the shares of Stock (including restricted stock) associated with the expired, terminated or forfeited portion of such Award shall become available for other Awards. In no event shall the number of shares of Stock considered to be delivered pursuant to the exercise of a stock appreciation right include the shares that represent the grant or exercise price thereof, which shares are not delivered to the Grantee upon exercise.

(d)If and to the extent an Award granted under a Prior Plan shall, after the Initial Effective Date, expire or terminate for any reason without having been exercised in full, or shall be forfeited or settled for cash, the shares of Stock (including restricted stock) associated with the expired, terminated or forfeited portion of such Award shall become available for Awards under this Plan. If, after the Initial Effective Date, a Grantee uses shares of Stock owned by the Grantee (by either actual delivery or by attestation) to pay the Option Price of any stock option granted under this Plan or a Prior Plan or to satisfy any tax‐withholding obligation with respect to an Award granted under this Plan or a Prior Plan, the number of shares of Stock delivered or attested to shall be added to the number of shares of Stock available for delivery under this Plan. To the extent any shares of Stock subject to a stock option granted under this Plan are withheld, after the Initial Effective Date, to satisfy the Option Price of that stock option, or any shares of Stock subject to an Award granted under this Plan are withheld to satisfy any tax‐withholding obligation, such shares shall not be deemed to have been delivered for purposes of determining the maximum number of shares of Stock available for delivery under this Plan. To the extent any shares of Stock subject to an Award granted under a Prior Plan are withheld, after the Initial Effective Date, to satisfy any tax‐withholding obligation, such shares shall be added to the maximum number of shares of Stock available for delivery under this Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no shares of Stock that become available for Awards granted under this Plan pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 3(d) shall be available for grants of incentive stock options pursuant to Section 6(f).
4.Administration
(a)Subject to Section 4(b), this Plan shall be administered by a committee or committees appointed by the Board (the “Committee”). The composition of the Committee shall be subject to such limitations as the Board deems appropriate to permit transactions in Stock pursuant to this Plan to be exempt from liability under Rule 16b‐3 under the 1934 Act and to satisfy the “independence” requirements of any national securities exchange on which the Stock is listed.
(b)The Board may, in its discretion, reserve to itself any or all of the authority and responsibility of the Committee. To the extent that the Board has reserved to itself the authority and responsibility of the Committee, all references to the Committee in this Plan shall be deemed to refer to the Board.
(c)The Committee shall have full and final authority, in its discretion, but subject to the express provisions of this Plan, as follows:
(i)to grant Awards,
(ii)to determine (A) when Awards may be granted, and (B) whether or not specific Awards shall be identified with other specific Awards, and, if so, whether they shall be exercisable cumulatively with or alternatively to such other specific Awards,
(iii)to interpret this Plan,
(iv)to determine all terms and provisions of all Awards, including without limitation any restrictions or conditions (including specifying such performance criteria as the Committee deems appropriate, and imposing restrictions with respect to Stock acquired upon exercise of a stock option, which restrictions may continue beyond the Grantee’s Termination of Employment or Termination of Directorship, as applicable), which shall be set forth in a written (including in an electronic form) agreement for each Award (the “Award Agreements”), which need not be identical, and, with the consent of the Grantee, to modify any such Award Agreement at any time,
(v)to adopt or to authorize foreign Subsidiaries to adopt Foreign Sub-Plans as provided in Section 14,
(vi)to delegate any or all of its duties and responsibilities under this Plan to any individual or group of individuals it deems appropriate, except its duties and responsibilities with respect to Section 16 Grantees, and (A) the acts of such delegates shall be treated hereunder as acts of the Committee and (B) such delegates shall report to the Committee regarding the delegated duties and responsibilities,

(vii)to accelerate the exercisability of, and to accelerate or waive any or all of the restrictions and conditions applicable to, any Award or any group of Awards, other than the Minimum Vesting Requirement, for any reason, solely to the extent that any such acceleration or waiver would not cause any tax to become due under Section 409A of the Code,
(viii)subject to Section 6(a)(ii), to extend the time during which any Award or group of Awards may be exercised or earned, solely to the extent that any such extension would not cause any tax to become due under Section 409A of the Code,
(ix)to make such adjustments or modifications to Awards granted to or held by Grantees working outside the United States as are necessary and advisable to fulfill the purposes of this Plan or to accommodate the specific requirements of local laws, procedures or practices,
(x)to impose such additional conditions, restrictions and limitations upon the grant, exercise or retention of Awards as the Committee may, before or concurrently with the grant thereof, deem appropriate, including requiring simultaneous exercise of related identified Awards and limiting the percentage of Awards that may from time to time be exercised by a Grantee,
(xi)notwithstanding Section 8, to prescribe rules and regulations concerning the transferability of any Awards, and
(xii)to make all other decisions and determinations that may be required pursuant to the Plan or as the Committee deems necessary or advisable to administer the Plan.
(d)The determination of the Committee on all matters relating to this Plan or any Award Agreement shall be made in its sole discretion, and shall be conclusive and final. No member of the Committee shall be liable for any action or determination made in good faith with respect to this Plan or any Award.
5.Eligibility
Awards may be granted to any Employee (including any officer) of the Company or any of its domestic Subsidiaries, any Employee, officer or director of any of the Company’s foreign Subsidiaries (provided, that in the case of an Employee, officer or director of a domestic or foreign Subsidiary in which the Company owns less than 50% of the total combined voting power or value of all classes of stock, Awards may be granted only where there is a sufficient nexus between such Employee, officer or director and the Company so that the grant serves a genuine business purpose of the Company) and to any non‐Employee director of the Company. In selecting the individuals to whom Awards may be granted, as well as in determining the number of shares of Stock subject to, and the other terms and conditions applicable to, each Award, the Committee shall take into consideration such factors as it deems relevant in promoting the purposes of this Plan.
6.Conditions to Grants
(a)General conditions.
(i)The “Grant Date” of an Award shall be the date on which the Committee grants the Award or such later date as specified in advance by the Committee.
(ii)The term of each Award shall be a period not longer than 10 years from the Grant Date.
(iii)A Grantee may, if otherwise eligible, be granted additional Awards in any combination.
(b)Grant of Stock Options and Option Price. A stock option represents the right to purchase a share of Stock at a predetermined Option Price. No later than the Grant Date of any stock option, the Committee shall establish the Option Price of such stock option. The per‐share Option Price of a stock option shall not be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of a share of the Stock on the Grant Date. Such Option Price shall be subject to adjustment as provided in Section 22. The applicable Award Agreement may provide that the stock option shall be exercisable for restricted stock. The Committee shall not without the approval of the Company’s shareholders, other than pursuant to Section 22, (i) reduce the per‐share Option Price of a stock option after it is granted, (ii) cancel a 

stock option when the per‐share Option Price exceeds the Fair Market Value of a share of the Stock in exchange for cash or another Award (other than in connection with a Change in Control), or (iii) take any other action with respect to a stock option that would be treated as a repricing under the rules and regulations of the New York Stock Exchange.
(c)Grant of Stock Bonuses. The Committee may, in its discretion, grant Bonus Shares to any Employee eligible under Section 5 to receive Awards, other than executive officers of the Company.
(d)Grant of Dividend Equivalents. The Committee may, in its discretion, grant dividend equivalents, which represent the right to receive cash payments or shares of Stock measured by the dividends payable with respect to specific shares of Stock or a specified number of shares of Stock. Dividend equivalents may be granted as part of another type of Award, and shall be subject to such terms and conditions as the Committee shall determine; provided, that the Committee shall not provide for payment of dividend equivalents in a manner that would cause any tax to become due under Section 409A of the Code.
(e)Grant of Restricted Stock Units (“RSUs”). The Committee may, in its discretion, grant RSUs, which are Awards other than Bonus Shares that are denominated in, payable in, and valued, in whole or in part, by reference to, shares of Stock. An RSU shall represent the right to receive a payment, in cash, shares of Stock or both (as determined by the Committee), and shall be subject to such terms and conditions as the Committee shall determine.  RSUs that are a Service-Vesting Award shall be subject to the Minimum Vesting Requirement.
(f)Grant of Other Stock‐Based Awards. The Committee may, in its discretion, grant other stock‐based awards. These are Awards, other than stock options (not including incentive stock options), Bonus Shares, dividend equivalents and restricted stock units that are denominated in, valued, in whole or in part, by reference to, or otherwise based on or related to, Stock. The purchase, exercise, exchange or conversion of other stock‐based awards granted under this Section 6(f) shall be on such terms and conditions and by such methods as shall be specified by the Committee. If the value of any other stock‐based award is based on the difference between the excess of the Fair Market Value, on the date such Fair Market Value is determined, over such Award’s exercise or grant price, the exercise or grant price for such an Award will not be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value on the Grant Date. If the value of such an Award is based on the full value of a share of Stock, and the Award is a Service‐Vesting Award, then such Award shall be subject to the Minimum Vesting Requirement. The Committee shall not without the approval of the Company’s shareholders, other than pursuant to Section 22, (i) lower the exercise price of a stock appreciation right after it is granted, (ii) cancel a stock appreciation right when the exercise price exceeds the Fair Market Value of a share of the Stock in exchange for cash or another Award (other than in connection with a Change in Control), or (iii) take any other action with respect to a stock appreciation right that would be treated as a repricing under the rules and regulations of the New York Stock Exchange.
7.Grantee’s Agreement to Serve
The Committee may, in its discretion, require each Grantee who is granted an Award to, execute such Grantee’s Award Agreement, and to agree that such Grantee will remain in the employ of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or remain as a non‐Employee director, as applicable, for at least one year after the Grant Date. No obligation of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries as to the length of any Grantee’s employment or service as a non‐Employee director shall be implied by the terms of this Plan, any grant of an Award hereunder or any Award Agreement. The Company and its Subsidiaries reserve the same rights to terminate employment of any Grantee as existed before the Effective Date.
8.Non‐Transferability
No Award granted hereunder shall be assigned, encumbered, pledged, sold, transferred, or otherwise disposed of other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution; provided however, that unless otherwise determined by the Committee, a Grantee may designate in writing a beneficiary to exercise or hold, as applicable, his or her Award after such Grantee’s death. In the case of a holder after the Grantee’s death, an Award shall be transferable solely by will or by the laws of descent and distribution.

9.Exercise
(a)Exercise of Stock Options. Subject to Sections 4(c)(vii), 12, 13 and 21 and such terms and conditions as the Committee may impose, each stock option shall be exercisable as and when determined by the Committee; provided that, unless the Committee determines otherwise, each stock option shall be exercisable in one or more installments commencing not earlier than the first anniversary of the Grant Date of such stock option.
Each stock option shall be exercised by delivery of notice of intent to purchase a specific number of shares of Stock subject to such stock option. Such notice shall be in a manner specified by and satisfactory to the Company. The Option Price of any shares of Stock as to which a stock option shall be exercised shall be paid in full at the time of the exercise. Payment may, at the election of the Grantee, be made in any one or any combination of the following:
(i)cash,
(ii)unless otherwise determined by the Committee, Stock owned by the Grantee, valued at its Fair Market Value at the time of exercise,
(iii)with the approval of the Committee, shares of restricted stock held by the Grantee, each valued at the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock at the time of exercise, or
(iv)unless otherwise determined by the Committee, through simultaneous sale through a broker of shares acquired on exercise, as permitted under Regulation T of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System.
If shares of Stock are used to pay the Option Price, such shares of Stock must have been held by the Grantee for more than six months prior to exercise of the stock option, unless otherwise determined by the Committee. Such payment may be made by actual delivery or attestation.
(b)Time of Exercise/Expiration. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in the event that the final date on which any stock option would otherwise be exercisable in accordance with the provisions of this Plan (including without limitation Section 12 hereof) is not a Business Day, the last day on which such stock option may be exercised is the last Business Day immediately preceding such date.
10.Notification under Section 83(b)
The Committee may, on the Grant Date or any later date, prohibit a Grantee from making the election described below. If the Committee has not prohibited such Grantee from making such election, and the Grantee shall, in connection with the exercise of any stock option, or the grant of any share of restricted stock, make the election permitted under Section 83(b) of the Code (i.e., an election to include in such Grantee’s gross income in the year of transfer the amounts specified in Section 83(b) of the Code), such Grantee shall notify the Company of such election within 10 days of filing notice of the election with the U.S. Internal Revenue Service, in addition to complying with any filing and notification required pursuant to regulations issued under the authority of Section 83(b) of the Code.
11.Withholding Taxes
(a)Whenever, under this Plan, cash or Stock is to be delivered upon exercise or payment of an Award, or any other event occurs that results in taxation of a Grantee with respect to an Award, the Company shall be entitled to require (i) that the Grantee remit an amount sufficient to satisfy all U.S. federal, state and local withholding tax requirements related thereto, (ii) the withholding of such sums from compensation otherwise due to the Grantee or from any shares of Stock due to the Grantee under this Plan, (iii) any other method prescribed by the Committee from time to time or (iv) any combination of the foregoing.
(b)If any disqualifying disposition (as defined in Section 421(b) of the Code) is made with respect to shares of Stock acquired under an incentive stock option granted pursuant to this Plan or any election described in Section 10 is made, then the individual making such disqualifying disposition or election shall remit to the Company an amount sufficient to satisfy all U.S. federal, state and local withholding taxes thereby incurred; provided, that in 

lieu of or in addition to the foregoing, the Company shall have the right to withhold such sums from compensation otherwise due to the Grantee or from any shares of Stock due to the Grantee under this Plan.
(c)Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the amount withheld or remitted in the form of shares of Stock due to a Grantee under this Plan exceed the minimum required by applicable law, except in the case of amounts due to a Grantee working outside the United States where the amount withheld may exceed such minimum, provided that it is not in excess of the actual amount required to be withheld with respect to the Grantee under applicable tax law or regulations.
(d)Although the Company may endeavor to qualify an Award for favorable tax treatment under the laws of the United States or jurisdictions outside of the United States or to avoid adverse tax treatment, the Company makes no representation to that effect and expressly disavows any covenant to maintain favorable or avoid unfavorable tax treatment, notwithstanding anything contrary in this Plan and the Company will have no liability to a Grantee or any other party if a payment under an Award does not receive or maintain such favorable treatment or does not avoid such unfavorable treatment. The Company shall be unconstrained in its corporate activities without regard to the potential tax impact on Grantees.
12.Termination of Employment
(a)The applicable Award Agreement shall specify the treatment of such Award upon the Grantee’s Termination of Employment. Unless otherwise provided in the applicable Award Agreement, all unvested Awards shall forfeit upon the Grantee’s Termination of Employment, and vested stock options shall remain exercisable until the 90th day following Termination of Employment.
(b)Committee Discretion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may determine that the consequences of a Termination of Employment for a particular Award will differ from those in the applicable Grant Agreement after it is granted if the change is favorable to the Grantee, unless otherwise required to comply with applicable laws; provided, that the Committee shall have no authority (i) after the Grant Date, to extend the time to exercise unexercised stock options or stock appreciation rights to any date later than the 10th anniversary of the Grant Date (or, if earlier, the original expiration date of the Award) or (ii) otherwise to provide for terms of an Award that would cause any tax to become due under Section 409A of the Code.
13.Termination of Directorship
(a)The applicable Award Agreement shall specify the treatment of such Award upon the Director’s Termination of Directorship with the Company. Unless otherwise provided in the applicable Award Agreement, all unvested Awards shall forfeit upon the Director’s Termination of Directorship.
(b)Committee Discretion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may determine that the consequences of Termination of Directorship for a particular Award will differ from those in the Applicable Award Agreement after the Award is granted, if the change is favorable to the Grantee; provided, that the Committee shall have no authority (i) after the Grant Date, to extend the time to exercise unexercised stock options or stock appreciation rights to any date later than the 10th anniversary of the Grant Date (or, if earlier, the original expiration date of the Award) or (ii) otherwise to provide for terms of an Award that would cause any tax to become due under Section 409A of the Code.
14.Equity Incentive Plans of Foreign Subsidiaries
The Committee may grant Awards to Employees, officers and directors of the Company and its Subsidiaries who reside in foreign jurisdictions.  Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, the Committee may, in its sole discretion: (a) amend or vary the terms of the Plan in order to conform such terms with the requirements of each jurisdiction where a Subsidiary is located; (b) amend or vary the terms of the Plan in each jurisdiction where a Subsidiary is located as it considers necessary or desirable to take into account or to mitigate or reduce the burden of taxation and social security contributions for Grantees and/or the Subsidiary (including, without limitation, determining comparable minimum withholding liability under applicable non-U.S. tax laws for purposes of Section 11 (Withholding Taxes)); or (c) amend or vary the terms of the Plan in a jurisdiction where the Subsidiary is located as it considers necessary or desirable to meet the goals and objectives of the Plan.  The Committee may, where it 

deems appropriate in its sole discretion, establish one or more sub-Plans (a "Foreign Sub-Plan") for these purposes.  The Committee may, in its sole discretion, establish administrative rules and procedures to facilitate the operation of the Plan (and/or a Foreign Sub-Plan) in such jurisdictions.  The terms and conditions contained herein that are subject to variation in a jurisdiction shall be reflected in a written document.  To the extent permitted under applicable law, the Committee may delegate its authority and responsibilities under this Section 14 to one or more officers of the Company.  
15.Securities Law Matters
(a)If the Committee deems it necessary to comply with the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the regulations and rulings thereunder, the Committee may require a written investment intent representation by the Grantee and may require that a restrictive legend be affixed to certificates for shares of Stock.
(b)If, based upon the opinion of counsel for the Company, the Committee determines that the exercise or nonforfeitability of, or delivery of benefits pursuant to, any Award would violate any applicable provision of (i) U.S. federal, state, foreign or local securities law or (ii) the listing requirements of any national securities exchange on which are listed any of the Company’s equity securities (together, referred to herein as “Securities Law Requirements”), then the Committee may (A) postpone any such exercise, nonforfeitability or delivery, as the case may be, for not more than 30 days after the date on which such exercise, nonforfeitability or delivery would no longer violate such law or requirements, or (B) amend or cancel some or all of the Awards affected by such Securities Law Requirements, with or without consideration to the relevant Grantees.
16.Funding
Benefits payable under this Plan to any person shall be paid directly by the Company. The Company shall not be required to fund, or otherwise segregate assets to be used for payment of, benefits under this Plan.
17.No Employment Rights
Neither the establishment of this Plan, nor the granting of any Award, shall be construed to (a) give any Grantee the right to remain employed by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or to any benefits not specifically provided by this Plan or (b) in any manner modify the right of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to modify, amend, or terminate any of its employee benefit plans.
18.Rights as a Stockholder
A Grantee shall not, by reason of any Award (other than restricted stock), have any right as a stockholder of the Company with respect to the shares of Stock that may be deliverable upon exercise or payment of such Award until such shares have been delivered to him or her.
19.Nature of Payments
Any and all grants, payments of cash, or deliveries of shares of Stock hereunder shall constitute special incentive payments to the Grantee, and shall not be taken into account in computing the amount of salary or compensation of the Grantee for the purposes of determining any pension, retirement, death or other benefits under (a) any pension, retirement, profit‐sharing, bonus, life insurance or other employee benefit plan of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or (b) any agreement between the Company or any Subsidiary, on the one hand, and the Grantee, on the other hand, except as such plan or agreement shall otherwise expressly provide.
20.Non‐Uniform Determinations
Neither the Committee’s nor the Board’s determinations under this Plan need be uniform, and may be made by the Committee or the Board selectively among individuals who receive, or are eligible to receive, Awards (whether or not such individuals are similarly situated). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Committee shall be entitled, among other things, to make non‐uniform and selective determinations, to enter into non‐uniform and selective Award Agreements as to (a) the identity of the Grantees, (b) the terms and provisions of Awards, and (c) the treatment, under Section 12, of Terminations of Employment.

21.Change in Control Provisions
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan to the contrary, the provisions of this Section 21 shall apply in the event of a Change in Control, unless otherwise determined by the Committee in connection with the grant of an Award (as reflected in the applicable Award Agreement).
(a)Upon a Change in Control, each then‐outstanding stock option and stock appreciation right, and each other then‐outstanding Award that is a Service‐Vesting Award (each, a “Replaced Award”), shall be replaced with another Award meeting the requirements of Section 21(b) (a “Replacement Award”); provided that (i) if a Replacement Award meeting the requirements of Section 21(b) cannot be issued (because, for example, there are no publicly traded equity securities available, such that the requirement described in clause (iii) of the first sentence of Section 21(b) cannot be met), or (ii) the Committee so determines at any time prior to the Change in Control, upon a Change in Control each Replaced Award shall instead become fully vested, exercisable and free of restrictions. The treatment of any Awards which are not Replaced Awards (i.e., Awards other than stock options and stock appreciation rights, which are not Service‐Vesting Awards) shall be as determined by the Committee in connection with the grant thereof, as reflected in the applicable Award Agreement.
(b)An Award shall meet the conditions of this Section 21(b) (and hence qualify as a Replacement Award) if: (i) it is of the same type as the Replaced Award; (ii) it has a value at least equal to the value of the Replaced Award; (iii) it relates to publicly traded equity securities of the Company or its successor in the Change in Control or another entity that is affiliated with the Company or its successor following the Change in Control; (iv) its terms and conditions comply with Section 21(c) below; and (v) its other terms and conditions are not less favorable to the Grantee than the terms and conditions of the Replaced Award (including the provisions that would apply in the event of a subsequent Change in Control). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Replacement Award may take the form of a continuation of the Replaced Award if the requirements of the preceding sentence are satisfied. The determination of whether the conditions of this Section 21(b) are satisfied shall be made by the Committee, as constituted immediately before the Change in Control, in its sole discretion. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Committee may determine the value of Awards and Replacement Awards that are stock options by reference to either their intrinsic value or their fair value.
(c)Upon a Termination of Employment or Termination of Directorship of a Grantee occurring in connection with or during the period of two years after such Change in Control, other than for Cause, (i) all Replacement Awards held by the Grantee shall become fully vested and (if applicable) exercisable and free of restrictions, and (ii) all stock options and stock appreciation rights held by the Grantee immediately before the Termination of Employment or Termination of Directorship that the Grantee held as of the date of the Change in Control or that constitute Replacement Awards shall remain exercisable for not less than two years following such termination or until the expiration of the stated term of such stock option, whichever period is shorter (provided, that if the applicable Award Agreement provides for a longer period of exercisability, that provision shall control). The treatment described in the preceding sentence shall not apply if the Termination of Employment is initiated by the Employee.
22.Adjustments Upon Certain Changes
The following shall be subject to any action by the shareholders of the Company required by law, applicable tax rules or the rules of any exchange on which shares of Stock of the Company are listed for trading:
(a)Shares Available for Grants. In the event of any change in the number of shares of Stock of the Company outstanding by reason of any stock dividend or split, recapitalization, merger, consolidation, combination or exchange of shares or similar corporate change, the maximum aggregate number of shares of Stock with respect to which the Committee may grant Awards and the maximum aggregate number of shares of Stock with respect to which the Committee may grant Awards to any individual Grantee in any year shall be appropriately adjusted by the Committee. In the event of any change in the number of shares of Stock of the Company outstanding by reason of any other event or transaction, the Committee may, to the extent deemed appropriate by the Committee, make such adjustments in the number and class of shares of Stock with respect to which Awards may be granted.
(b)Increase or Decrease in Issued Shares Without Consideration. In the event of any increase or decrease in the number of issued shares of Stock of the Company resulting from a subdivision or consolidation of 

shares of Stock of the Company or the payment of a stock dividend (but only on the shares of Stock of the Company), or any other increase or decrease in the number of such shares effected without receipt or payment of consideration by the Company, the Committee may, to the extent deemed appropriate by the Committee, adjust the number of shares of Stock subject to each outstanding Award and the exercise price per share of Stock of each such Award.
(c)Certain Mergers. In the event of any merger, consolidation or similar transaction as a result of which the holders of shares of Stock receive consideration consisting exclusively of securities of the surviving corporation in such transaction, the Committee may, to the extent deemed appropriate by the Committee, adjust each Award outstanding on the date of such merger or consolidation so that it pertains and applies to the securities which a holder of the number of shares of Stock subject to such Award would have received in such merger or consolidation.
(d)Certain Other Transactions. In the event of (i) a dissolution or liquidation of the Company, (ii) a sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets (on a consolidated basis), or (iii) a merger, consolidation or similar transaction involving the Company in which the holders of shares of Stock receive securities and/or other property, including cash, other than shares of the surviving corporation in such transaction, the Committee shall, in its sole discretion, have the power to:
(i)cancel, effective immediately prior to the occurrence of such event, each Award (whether or not then exercisable or vested), and, in full consideration of such cancellation, pay to the Grantee to whom such Award was granted an amount in cash, for each share of Stock subject to such Award, equal to the value, as determined by the Committee, of such Award, provided that with respect to any outstanding stock option such value shall be equal to the excess of (A) the value, as determined by the Committee, of the property (including cash) received by the holder of a share of Stock as a result of such event over (B) the exercise price of such stock option; or
(ii)provide for the exchange of each Award (whether or not then exercisable or vested) for an Award with respect to some or all of the property which a holder of the number of shares of Stock subject to such Award would have received in such transaction and, incident thereto, make an equitable adjustment as determined by the Committee in the exercise price of the Award, or the number of shares or amount of property subject to the Award or provide for a payment (in cash or other property) to the Grantee to whom such Award was granted in partial consideration for the exchange of the Award.
(e)Other Changes. In the event of any change in the capitalization of the Company or corporate change other than those specifically referred to in paragraphs 22(b), (c) or (d), the Committee may make such adjustments in the number and class of shares subject to Awards outstanding on the date on which such change occurs and in such other terms of such Awards as the Committee may consider appropriate.
(f)No Other Rights. Except as expressly provided in the Plan, no Grantee shall have any rights by reason of any subdivision or consolidation of shares of stock of any class, the payment of any dividend, any increase or decrease in the number of shares of stock of any class or any dissolution, liquidation, merger or consolidation of the Company or any other corporation. Except as expressly provided in the Plan, no issuance by the Company of shares of stock of any class, or securities convertible into shares of stock of any class, shall affect, and no adjustment by reason thereof shall be made with respect to, the number of shares or amount of other property subject to, or the terms related to, any Award.
(g)Savings Clause. No provision of this Section 22 shall be given effect to the extent that such provision would cause any tax to become due under Section 409A of the Code.
23.Amendment of this Plan
The Board or the Committee may from time to time in its discretion amend this Plan or Awards, without the approval of the shareholders of the Company, except (i) to the extent required under the listing requirements of any national securities exchange on which are listed any of the Company’s equity securities and (ii) to the extent the amendment would result in (A) the reduction of the Option Price of any stock option, (B) cancellation of a stock option when the Option Price exceeds the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock in exchange for cash or another 

Award (other than in connection with a Change in Control), or (C) any other action with respect to a stock option that would be treated as a repricing under the rules and regulations of the New York Stock Exchange. No such amendment shall adversely affect any previously‐granted Award without the consent of the Grantee, except for (x) amendments made to comply with applicable law, stock exchange rules or accounting rules, and (y) amendments that do not materially decrease the value of such Awards. 
24.Termination of this Plan
This Plan shall terminate on the 10th anniversary of the Effective Date or at such earlier time as the Board may determine. Any termination, whether in whole or in part, shall not affect any Award then outstanding under this Plan.
25.No Illegal Transactions
This Plan and all Awards granted pursuant to it are subject to all laws and regulations of any governmental authority that may be applicable thereto; and, notwithstanding any provision of this Plan or any Award, Grantees shall not be entitled to exercise Awards or receive the benefits thereof and the Company shall not be obligated to deliver any Stock or pay any benefits to a Grantee if such exercise, delivery, receipt or payment of benefits would constitute a violation by the Grantee or the Company of any provision of any such law or regulation. Such circumstances or the inability or impracticability of the Company to obtain or maintain authority from any regulatory body (which authority is deemed by the Company to be necessary for the lawful issuance and/or sale of Stock hereunder) shall relieve the Company of any liability for the failure to issue and/or sell such Stock and shall constitute circumstances in which the Committee may determine to amend or cancel Awards pertaining to such Stock, with or without consideration to the affected Grantees.
26.Controlling Law
The law of the State of Illinois, except its law with respect to choice of law, shall be controlling in all matters relating to this Plan.
27.Severability
If all or any part of this Plan is declared by any court or governmental authority to be unlawful or invalid, such unlawfulness or invalidity shall not serve to invalidate any portion of this Plan not declared to be unlawful or invalid. Any Section or part of a Section so declared to be unlawful or invalid shall, if possible, be construed in a manner that will give effect to the terms of such Section or part of a Section to the fullest extent possible while remaining lawful and valid.
28.Section 409A
No provision of this Plan shall be given effect to the extent that such provision would cause any tax to become due under Section 409A of the Code. No action, or failure to act, pursuant to this Section 28 or to any other provision of the Plan that references Section 409A of the Code shall subject the Committee, the Board or the Company to any claim, liability or expense, and neither the Committee, the Board nor the Company shall have any obligation to indemnify or otherwise protect any Grantee from the obligation to pay any taxes pursuant to Section 409A of the Code.Exhibit

Exhibit 10(t)

Separation Agreement and General Release

TO:  Silvia Dias Lagnado

McDonald’s has decided to eliminate your current position of EVP Marketing, as of July 15, 2019.  This Agreement reflects the understanding between you and McDonald’s as to the conclusion of your employment with the Company, and shall be binding on you, your heirs, successors and assigns, and on McDonald’s.  “McDonald's” as used in this Agreement, includes McDonald’s Corporation, McDonald’s USA, LLC, all of their respective subsidiaries, affiliates and related entities and companies, and their current and former directors, officers, agents, employees, insurers and attorneys, and all employee benefit plans and arrangements and their administrators trustees and other fiduciaries, and all successors and assigns of all of the foregoing.

CONSIDERATION

GENERAL RELEASE
In exchange for the payments and benefits set forth above in this Agreement, you (and anyone claiming through you or on your behalf, including your heirs and assigns) agree to release McDonald’s, to the fullest extent permitted by law, with respect to any and all claims, actions, causes of action, complaints, grievances, demands, allegations, promises, and obligations for damages, and any and all other demands you may have against McDonald’s or have ever had, whether known or unknown, concerning, relating to, or arising out of any alleged acts or omissions by McDonald’s from the beginning of time to the date on which you execute this Agreement.

The claims you are releasing include, without limitation, the claims as defined in this Agreement, any additional claims asserted on your behalf by legal counsel (if any) or by any individual, entity or government agency, and all other claims arising under any act, statute, constitution, regulation, executive order, ordinance, or the common law, including any claims for attorneys’ fees and/or costs.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing and subject to the exceptions listed in the section entitled “Right to Enforce Agreement and Cooperate with the Government” listed below, the claims released by you hereunder include, but are not limited to:  
(a) all claims for or related in any way to your employment, compensation, other terms and conditions of employment, or cessation of employment with McDonald’s;

(b) all claims that were or could have been asserted by you or on your behalf:  (i) in any federal, state, or local court, or tribunal; (ii) under any public policy or common law theory; (iii) under any employment agreement or contract, other agreement or contract, or tort (including but not limited to claims for infliction of emotional distress); or (iv) under any federal, state, or local law, regulation, ordinance, or executive order; 
(c) any and all claims that McDonald’s is obligated to pay or owes any compensation or payments to you in connection with any ideas, information, inventions, processes, procedures, systems, methods, intellectual property or other materials that you may have developed, produced, created, designed, modified, improved, enhanced or revised during your employment with McDonald’s or disclosed to McDonald’s, including without limitation any trademarks, service marks, trade dress, copyrights, patents and/or trade secrets, (collectively referred to in this Agreement as “Materials”); and 
(d) any and all claims that were or could have been asserted by you or on your behalf arising under any law, including but not limited to, and as in effect or amended from time to time:  Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 (“Title VII”), Civil Rights Act of 1866 (42 U.S.C. Section 1981), Civil Rights Act of 1991 (42 U.S.C. Section 1981a), Americans with Disabilities Act (“ADA”), Employee Retirement Income Security Act, Family and Medical Leave Act, Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act (“USERRA”), Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act (“GINA”), Equal Pay Act,  Fair Credit Reporting Act, Immigration Reform Control Act, Occupational Safety and Health Act, Employee Polygraph Protection Act, Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act (“WARN Act”), Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act of 2009, any state or federal consumer protection and/or trade practices act, Illinois Human Rights Act, Illinois Wage Payment and Collection Act, Illinois Equal Wage Act, Illinois Equal Pay Act of 2003, Illinois Minimum Wage Law, Illinois Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act (“Illinois WARN Act”), the anti-retaliation provisions of the Illinois Workers Compensation Act, and the Illinois Whistleblower Act and any other whistleblower statute, the New York Human Rights Law, any state or federal consumer protection and/or trade practices act.  

YOU UNDERSTAND BY SIGNING THIS AGREEMENT, YOU ARE GIVING UP ALL CLAIMS AGAINST McDONALD’S except those expressly excepted by this Agreement or otherwise not waivable by law.  You agree that this Agreement provides benefits to you that are above and beyond anything to which you are otherwise entitled.

RIGHT TO ENFORCE AGREEMENT AND COOPERATE WITH THE GOVERNMENT
Nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit or interfere with your right to bring any action to enforce the terms of this Agreement or to file a charge or complaint, report a violation of the law, communicate, testify, assist, cooperate, or participate in an investigation, proceeding or hearing conducted by the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, the Department of Justice, the Securities and Exchange Commission or other federal, state or local agency or commission without prior authorization or approval of the Law Department or any other McDonald’s official or representative, and you are not required to report such actions to McDonald’s.  And nothing in this Agreement prohibits or restricts your ability to share confidential company information regarding possible violations of the law with any federal, state or local government agency, and to accept monetary awards for providing information about violations of the law to any such agency (sometimes referred to as whistleblower awards or informant awards) under any whistleblower law, rule or program.  However, except where otherwise prohibited by law, the consideration provided to you in this Agreement shall be the sole relief provided to you for all claims you previously asserted or could have asserted.  You are not, and will not be, entitled to recover, and you agree to waive, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any back pay, back benefits, damages for emotional 

Separation Agreement

distress, other actual or compensatory damages, punitive damages, interest, and other monetary benefits or other personal relief or recovery against McDonald’s in connection with any such claim, charge or proceeding of any kind without regard to which entity or person has brought such claim, charge, complaint or proceeding, except for whistleblower or informant awards as set forth above. 
IMMUNITY FROM LIABILITY FOR CONFIDENTIAL DISCLOSURE OF A TRADE SECRET TO THE GOVERNMENT OR IN A COURT FILING  
Under the Defend Trade Secrets Act, you cannot be held criminally or civilly liable under any Federal or State trade secret law or under this Agreement for the disclosure of a trade secret made in confidence to a Federal, State, or local government official, either directly or indirectly, or to an attorney, and solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law. You likewise cannot be held criminally or civilly liable under any Federal or State trade secret law for disclosure of a trade secret made in a complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, if such filing is made under seal.  Also, if you file a lawsuit for retaliation by McDonald’s for reporting a suspected violation of law, you may disclose a trade secret to your attorney and you may use the trade secret information in the court proceeding if you file any document containing the trade secret or confidential information under seal and you do not otherwise disclose the trade secret, except pursuant to court order.  

RECEIPT OF PAY AND BENEFITS TO DATE
You acknowledge and agree that you have not applied for, nor are you eligible for, short term disability, long term disability, Worker’s Compensation, or family and medical leave under applicable federal, state and local law.  You further agree that you have received all salary and benefits due to you to date, and have taken any family and medical leave to which you are entitled.

REMEDIES FOR BREACH
Should you breach this Agreement, McDonald’s shall be entitled to recover 90% of the entire value of any consideration you have received pursuant to this Agreement and shall be relieved of any obligation to pay further consideration.  It is acknowledged that this is not a penalty but an agreed upon remedy that results from a failure of consideration upon a breach of the provisions of this Agreement; however, the parties agree that the remaining 10% of the value of the consideration shall constitute sufficient consideration for the General Release above.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit or interfere with your right to challenge enforcement of this Agreement before a court or tribunal or before the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission.  Further, nothing in this Agreement prohibits you from reporting possible violations of federal, state or local law or regulation to any governmental agency or entity, including but not limited to the Department of Justice, the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Congress, and any agency Inspector General, or making other disclosures that are protected under the whistleblower provisions of federal, state or local law or regulation. You do not need the prior authorization or approval of the Law Department or anyone else at McDonald’s to make any such reports or disclosures, and you are not required to notify the company that you have made such reports or disclosures. 

CHOICE OF LAW
You and McDonald’s agree that this Agreement is to be interpreted and enforced pursuant to the law of Delaware.  Should any dispute arise between the parties and the law of the forum state prevents use of this choice of law provision with respect to any issue, then the law of the forum state shall be adopted for that issue.

SAVINGS CLAUSE
In the event that any one or more provisions (or portion thereof) of this Agreement is held to be invalid, unlawful or unenforceable for any reason, the invalid, unlawful or unenforceable provision (or portion thereof) shall be construed or modified so as to provide the released parties with the maximum protection that is valid, lawful and enforceable, consistent with the intent of the parties in entering into this Agreement.  If such provision (or portion thereof) cannot be construed or modified so as to be valid, lawful and enforceable, that provision (or portion thereof) shall be construed as narrowly as possible and shall be severed from the remainder of this Agreement (or provision), and the remainder shall remain in effect and be construed as broadly as possible, as if such invalid, unlawful or unenforceable provision (or portion thereof) had never been contained in this Agreement.   

CONSIDERATION PERIOD; KNOWING AND VOLUNTARY AGREEMENT AND RELEASE, AND ACCEPTANCE AND RETURN OF THE AGREEMENT
You have read it and understand it fully.  You acknowledge that you have been and are hereby advised by this Agreement to consult with an attorney prior to executing this Agreement.  

You further acknowledge that you have been given at least 7 days to consider the terms of this Agreement, that you have been able to use this period, or as much of this period as you desire, and that you are now executing this Agreement voluntarily with the express intention of making a binding legal agreement, including giving up all claims against McDonald’s.  You forever waive any relief not explicitly set forth in this document.  The review period set forth above will not be affected or extended by any revisions, whether material or immaterial, that might be made to this Agreement.  If you choose to accept this Agreement, please sign and return the Agreement to Jerry Krulewitch at the following address:
