Yum! Performance Share Plan Summary

Eligibility

 

You are eligible to earn an award under the Yum! Performance Share Plan (the “Plan”) if you are the Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, or Brand President, as determined by the committee administering the Program.

 

Introduction

 

As a participant in the Plan, you will be granted Units which will represent shares of Yum! common stock.  You will receive a share of Yum! stock for each Unit at the end of the three calendar year Performance Period (2009-2011), provided that the total number of shares you receive will be adjusted up or down depending on the Compound Annual Growth Rate during the Performance Period, and adjusted for dividends paid on Yum! shares during the Performance Period, as described below.

 

Grant of Units

 

At the beginning of the Performance Period, you will receive a grant with a face value equal to 33% of your target bonus for the first year of the Performance Period.  This face value will be divided by the closing price of a share of Yum! stock on March 27, 2009, the date the Program was established, to determine the number of units granted.

 

Dividends

 

As Yum! dividends are declared during the Performance Period, you will be granted additional Units.  The number of Units allocated to you for that Performance Period will be increased by the number of units equal to the dividend amount that would be payable with respect to the number of shares of Stock equal to the number of Units allocated to the Participant on the dividend record date divided by the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the date of payment of the dividend.

 

Earned Units

 

As soon as practicable after the end of the Performance Period, you will receive shares of Yum! stock equal to the number of Units you were granted at the beginning of the Performance Period, plus the additional Units attributable to the dividends paid during the Performance Period, multiplied by the Performance Multiplier for the Performance Period.
