(1) Options become exercisable in 25% increments on the first, second, third and fourth anniversary dates of the grant.
(2) Each restricted stock unit ("RSU") represents a right to acquire one share of McDonald's Corporation common stock.
(3) Represents the target number of RSUs granted, subject to performance-based vesting conditions linked to diluted earnings per share ("EPS") growth and return on incremental invested capital ("ROIIC") for the period of January 1, 2019 through December 31, 2021 (the "Performance Period"). If McDonald's Corporation satisfies both the EPS and ROIIC thresholds, then the number of RSUs that vest may be increased or decreased based upon the McDonald's Corporation total shareholder return relative to the S&P 500 Index over the Performance Period. The number of RSUs earned will range from 0% to 200% of the target number of RSUs granted.
