* If the form is filed by more than one reporting person, see Instruction 5(b)(v).

(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. Upon vesting, payout of the RSUs will be in the form of shares or, at the discretion of the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (the "Committee"), the cash value thereof. No dividend, voting or other shareholder rights attach to the RSUs until until they vest and only if the payout upon vesting is in shares of common stock.
(3) 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, 2018 through December 31, 2020. If McDonald's Corporation (the "Company") satisfies both the EPS and ROIIC thresholds, then the number of RSUs that vest may be increased or decreased based upon the Company's total shareholder return relative to the S&P 500 Index over the period of 2018 through 2020. The number of RSUs earned will range from 50% to 150% of the target number of RSUs granted.
(4) Each RSU represents a right to acquire one share of McDonald's Corporation common stock. Upon vesting, payout of the RSUs will be in the form of shares or, at the discretion of the Committee, the cash value thereof.
