PART II
INFORMATION NOT REQUIRED IN PROSPECTUS

Item 20. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

Section 18-108 of the Delaware Limited Liability Company Act (the “LLCA”) grants a Delaware limited liability company the power, subject to such standards and restrictions, if any, as are set forth in its limited liability company agreement, to indemnify and hold harmless any member or manager or other person from and against any and all claims and demands whatsoever.

Section 18 of Wendy’s/Arby’s Restaurants, LLC’s (“Wendy’s/Arby’s Restaurants”) third amended and restated limited liability company operating agreement (the “Operating Agreement”) provides that a member shall not have any liability for the obligations or liabilities of Wendy’s/Arby’s Restaurants, except to the extent provided in the LLCA.

Section 19 of the Operating Agreement provides that a “Covered Person” (defined as (i) the member or any manager of Wendy’s/Arby’s Restaurants, or any of their respective affiliates, (ii) any officer of Wendy’s/Arby’s Restaurants or (iii) any director, officer, shareholder or employee of the member or manager) shall not be liable to Wendy’s/Arby’s Restaurants or any other Covered Person for any loss, damage or claim incurred by reason of any act or omission performed by such Covered Person in good faith on behalf of Wendy’s/Arby’s Restaurants in a manner reasonably believed to be within the scope of authority conferred on such Covered Person by the Operating Agreement, except that a Covered Person shall be liable for any such loss, damage or claim incurred by reason of such Covered Person’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.

The Operating Agreement also provides that, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, a Covered Person shall be entitled to indemnification from Wendy’s/Arby’s Restaurants for any loss, damage or claim incurred by such Covered Person by reason of any act or omission performed or omitted by such Covered Person in good faith on behalf of Wendy’s/Arby’s Restaurants and in a manner reasonably believed to be within the scope of authority conferred on such Covered Person by the Operating Agreement, except that no Covered Person shall be entitled to be indemnified with respect of any loss, damage or claim incurred by such Covered Person by reason of gross negligence or willful misconduct with respect to such acts or omissions; provided, however, that any indemnity under Section 19 of the Operating Agreement shall be provided out of and to the extent of Wendy’s/Arby’s Restaurants’ assets only, and no Covered Person shall have any personal liability on account thereof.

The Operating Agreement further provides that, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, expenses (including legal fees) incurred by a Covered Person in defending any claim, demand, action, suit or proceeding shall, from time to time, be advanced by Wendy’s/Arby’s Restaurants prior to the disposition of such claim, demand, action, suit or proceeding upon receipt by Wendy’s/Arby’s Restaurants of an undertaking by or on behalf of the Covered Person to repay such amount if it shall be determined that the Covered Person is not entitled to be indemnified under Section 19 of the Operating Agreement.

The laws of Alabama, California, Colorado, Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Indiana, Michigan, Minnesota, Ohio, Oregon, South Carolina and Washington governing the guarantors listed as registrants under this registration statement contain provisions similar to the LLCA regarding the indemnification of directors, managers, trustees and officers, as applicable, and the limitation of their personal liability.

The organizational documents of the guarantors listed as registrants under this registration statement contain provisions similar to those in the Operating Agreement of Wendy’s/Arby’s Restaurants regarding the indemnification of directors, managers, trustees and officers, as applicable, and the limitation of their personal liability.

Wendy’s/Arby’s Group, Arby’s Restaurant Group, Inc. and/or Wendy’s International, Inc. have entered into indemnification agreements with directors, officers and certain other employees of Wendy’s/Arby’s Restaurants and its subsidiaries indemnifying them against liability they may incur in their capacities as such and advancement of defense expenses (including legal fees).

II-1


Pursuant to Section 5 of the Registration Rights Agreement, dated June 23, 2009, among Wendy’s/Arby’s Restaurants, LLC, the guarantors and the initial purchasers named therein, each holder of the notes and each participating broker-dealer has agreed to indemnify Wendy’s/Arby’s Restaurants, the guarantors and each person, if any, who controls Wendy’s/Arby’s Restaurants or the guarantors within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act from and against certain losses, claims, damages or liabilities that may be incurred in connection with the registration of the initial notes, to the extent that such losses, claims, damages or liabilities arise from an omission or untrue statement contained in written information furnished to Wendy’s/Arby’s Restaurants by such holder of the notes or participating broker-dealer.

The Purchase Agreement, dated June 18, 2009, among Wendy’s/Arby’s Restaurants, LLC, the guarantors and the initial purchasers named therein, contains provisions by which the initial purchasers agree to indemnify Wendy’s/Arby’s Restaurants, the guarantors, their respective directors and officers and each person, if any, who controls Wendy’s/Arby’s Restaurants or the guarantors within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act against certain losses, claims, damages or liabilities.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling the registrants pursuant to the foregoing provisions, the registrants have been informed that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable.

Wendy’s/Arby’s Restaurants maintains liability insurance for its managers and officers, as permitted by its Operating Agreement.

The guarantors listed as registrants under this registration statement also maintain liability insurance for their respective managers, trustees, directors and officers, as applicable.

Item 22. Undertakings.

(a) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

(i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;

(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the Form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement.

(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement;

(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

(b) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes to respond to requests for information that is incorporated by reference into the prospectus pursuant to Item 4, 10(b), 11 or 13 of this form, within one business day of receipt of such request, and to send the incorporated documents by first class mail or other equally prompt means. This includes information contained in documents filed subsequent to the effective date of the registration statement through the date of responding to the request.

(c) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes to supply by means of a post-effective amendment all information concerning a transaction, and the company being acquired involved therein, that was not the subject of and included in the registration statement when it became effective.

(d) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrants have been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrants of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrants in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
