 9 

 (c) Notwithstanding Sections 3.1(a) and 3.1(b) above, each of the parties agrees that in
the event that there is a dispute as to whether the standard for terminating the Standstill Period has been met as specified in clause (y) of Section 1.3(c) hereof, that dispute (a “Specified Dispute”) will be resolved through an
arbitration proceeding in accordance with the following provisions of this Section 3.1(c). In connection therewith, each party agrees that, until such Specified Dispute is resolved, the Standstill Period, and the provisions hereof relating
thereto, shall continue to be in effect, and any party may seek a preliminary injunction, temporary restraining order or other provisional remedy in a court specified in Section 3.1(b) above. 
  
 (i) The parties agree that they will mutually agree upon one
person to serve as an arbitrator for purposes of this Section 3.1(c) within ten (10) business days of the date hereof (the “Specified Arbitrator”). In the event that the parties are unable to reach agreement on the Specified
Arbitrator within such time period, within five (5) business days of the end of such ten business day period each party shall designate, in its sole discretion and in writing one (1) arbitrator and the two arbitrators thus selected shall
in turn jointly specify, within five (5) business days of their designation and in accordance with the procedure established by the American Arbitration Association, a third arbitrator, which arbitrator shall, alone, act as the Specified
Arbitrator hereunder. If such two arbitrators fail to appoint a third arbitrator within the time period specified in the preceding sentence, then any party hereto may request the American Arbitration Association to appoint an arbitrator to act as
the Specified Arbitrator, and the other parties shall cooperate therewith. The Specified Arbitrator shall be a professional experienced in commercial and business affairs who is not an employee, consultant, officer or director of any party hereto or
any Affiliate of any party to this Agreement and shall not have received any compensation, directly or indirectly, from any party hereto or any Affiliate of any party to this Agreement during the two (2) year period preceding the date hereof.
In the event that the Specified Arbitrator becomes unwilling or unable to serve as such, then such Specified Arbitrator shall select a replacement as promptly as practicable, and such replacement shall be deemed to be the Specified Arbitrator
hereunder. If the Specified Arbitrator does not select a replacement within ten (10) business days, then a replacement shall be selected pursuant to the first three sentences of this Section 3.1(c)(i), which arbitrator shall, alone, act as
the Specified Arbitrator hereunder. 
  
 (ii) The
party initiating the dispute shall notify the other party (the “Receiving Party”) and the Specified Arbitrator in writing of the matter or matters in dispute (such notification in writing shall hereinafter be referred to as the
“Arbitration Notice”). 
  
 (iii) The
arbitration shall be governed by the commercial arbitration rules of the American Arbitration Association with limited discovery in the discretion of the Specified Arbitrator; provided, however, that the Specified Arbitrator shall have
sole discretion with regard to the admissibility of evidence. Ohio law shall otherwise govern in all arbitration proceedings. 
  

 10 

 (iv) The parties shall use their reasonable best efforts to cause the hearings before the
Specified Arbitrator, including all discovery related thereto, to be completed within fifteen (15) business days of the date of the filing of the Arbitration Notice. The parties shall use their reasonable best efforts to cause the Specified
Arbitrator to use his or her reasonable best efforts to rule on each disputed issue within five (5) calendar days after the completion of the hearings. If the Specified Arbitrator has not resolved any Specified Dispute as of forty-five
(45) days before any Annual Meeting of Shareholders of the Company, the Company shall take such steps as are necessary to postpone such Annual Meeting so as to ensure that such Annual Meeting takes place no less than forty-five (45) days
after the Specified Arbitrator resolves such Specified Dispute. If, as a result of this provision, the 2007 Annual Meeting of Shareholders of the Company takes place after June 30, 2007, the Standstill Period shall automatically be extended
until the completion of such Annual Meeting, unless otherwise terminated pursuant to Section 1.3(c) hereof. 
  
 (v) The determination of the Specified Arbitrator as to the resolution of any dispute shall be binding and conclusive upon all parties
hereto and shall not be appealable. All rulings of the Specified Arbitrator shall be in writing (but need not be supported by reasons) and shall be delivered to the parties hereto. Each of the Investors, on one hand, and the Company, on the other,
shall pay one-half of the fees and expenses of the Specified Arbitrator. Any arbitration award may be entered in and enforced by any court specified in Section 3.1(b) and the parties hereby consent and commit themselves to the jurisdiction of
such courts for purposes of the enforcement of any arbitration award. The procedures set forth in this section shall be the sole and exclusive procedures for the resolution of a Specified Dispute. 
  
 3.2 Entire Agreement. 
  
 This Agreement contains the entire understanding of the parties with respect
to the subject matter hereof and may be amended only by an agreement in writing executed by the parties hereto. 
  
 3.3 Notices. 
  
 All notices, consents, requests, instructions, approvals and other communications provided for herein and all legal process in regard hereto shall be in

 Wendy’s International, Inc. reaches agreement with Trian Partners and Sandell Asset Management 
  
 DUBLIN, Ohio (March 2, 2006) – Wendy’s International, Inc. (NYSE: WEN) and Trian Fund Management, L.P. on behalf
of investment funds and accounts managed by it (“Trian Partners”) announced today that they have reached an agreement, by which Wendy’s will expand its board of directors from 12 to 15 members and add three new directors nominated by
Trian Partners: Jerry W. Levin, Peter H. Rothschild and Stuart I. Oran. 
  
 The three new directors will join the Board on March 6, 2006, and will be spread evenly across Wendy’s three classes. 
  
 “We welcome these new directors to our board and look forward to working with them to enhance long-term shareholder value,” said Chairman and
Chief Executive Officer Jack Schuessler. 
  
 The expanded board
reflects an agreement between the Company and Trian Partners, as well as Sandell Asset Management Corp. and investment funds and accounts managed by it, under which they have agreed to vote their shares in favor of the Company’s director
nominees at Wendy’s April 27, 2006, annual meeting. Trian and Sandell also made certain other commitments. 
  
 In addition, Wendy’s Board of Directors said that it plans the following actions to increase Wendy’s shareholder value: 
  

	 	•	 	Complete the initial public offering of Tim Hortons®, and spin off its remaining shares no later than December 31, 2006. 

  

	 	•	 	Following the initial public offering of Tim Hortons, examine ways to return excess cash to shareholders, including share repurchases or dividends, and the appropriate timing
thereof. 

  

	 	•	 	Consistent with Wendy’s recently announced “3-Year Combo Plan,” continue to focus on improving operating profit margins at Wendy’s. 

  

	 	•	 	Explore strategic alternatives for its Baja Fresh business. 

  
 “We are focused on growing revenues and improving profitability at the core Wendy’s brand,” said Schuessler. “We have an outstanding
track record of leadership and innovation in the quick service restaurant sector and look forward to regaining that position,” said Schuessler. 
  
 “We are excited that the new directors will work with the board to further enhance shareholder value at Wendy’s,” said Nelson Peltz of
Trian Partners. “We are now highly supportive of Wendy’s management team and their initiatives, and we believe that these new board members will contribute to Wendy’s plan to improve its profitability.” 
  
 Levin is Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of JW Levin Partners LLC, a
management and investment firm. From 1998 to 2005, he was Chairman and CEO of American Household, Inc. (formerly named Sunbeam Corporation). He was previously Chairman and CEO of Revlon, Inc. and held senior executive positions with The Pillsbury
