Serving the World Yum! Brands 2008 Corporate Responsibility Report Who We Are We at Yum! Brands are pleased to bring you our first Corporate Responsibility (CR) Report. At Yum! CR is our commitment to people, the environment, and society as a whole. Based in Louisville, Kentucky, Yum! Brands, Inc. is the world’s largest restaurant company, with nearly 36,000 restaurants in more than 110 countries and territories. We’re proud of our consistent record of success: 15 percent Earnings Per Share (EPS) growth last year, the sixth consecutive year in which we exceeded our annual EPS target of at least 10 percent growth; three percent same-store-sales growth worldwide; record cash from operations of over $1.5 billion; and nearly $1.7 billion returned to our shareholders, an all-time high for us. We’re equally proud of the unique culture we’ve built, one that’s filled with energy, opportunity, and fun. We believe in our people, trust in their positive intentions, encourage ideas from everyone, and have actively developed a workforce that is diverse in style and background. Yum! is a place where anyone can, and does, make a difference. Our commitment to our associates goes beyond just growing their professional skills. For many of our team members, working in one of our restaurants is often their first job. So we strive to develop their life skills – foundational abilities such as teamwork, responsibility, problem solving, positive energy, and a relentless drive to serve and satisfy customers – so they can grow to their full capability, be successful in whatever they do, and achieve their dreams. This commitment to people extends to the communities we serve across the world. CR is central to our ability to succeed in the marketplace and to be positive, responsible corporate citizens. Because we’re the largest restaurant company in the world and we’re passionate about helping people better themselves and their communities, we’re determined to address three critical challenges: The health and nutritional needs of our consumers; Feeding the world’s hungry; and Understanding and respecting the sensitive environmental and agricultural resources on which our business depends. In this report, you’ll learn how we are proactively and systematically addressing our Corporate Responsibility today and in the future.

Since its founding by Colonel Harland Sanders in 1952, KFC has been serving customers delicious, already prepared complete family meals at affordable prices.

From revolutionizing new kitchen preparation systems and supply chain management processes to establishing its Value Leadership, Taco Bell has kept alive Glen’s pioneering spirit. “Think Outside the Bun®” is more than a company tagline; it’s a way of life at Taco Bell.

Long John Silver’s, Inc., based in Louisville, Kentucky, is the world’s most popular QSR seafood chain, specializing in delicious, signature batter-dipped fish, chicken, shrimp and hushpuppies.

26 Our Associates At Yum! Brands we believe in giving back to the communities in which we operate. And I was truly inspired when I recently heard about an initiative in this regard by our franchisee, Devyani International. They’ve opened a Kentucky restaurant in Kolkata that is run by speech and hearing impaired employees. So, I went to see the restaurant and I was struck by what I saw. I was struck by the fact that we don’t really announce that this restaurant is different in any way; by the fact that the standards of the restaurant were second to none; and the sheer joy and pride on the faces of the employees there at the opportunity of working at our restaurants. Niren Chaudhary Managing Director, Yum! Restaurants India The franchisee, Virag Joshi, President and CEO of Devyani International, Ltd. embarked on a journey to give back to the community of New Empire, Kolkata and employ a group of approximately 40 speech- and hearing-impaired associates in 2007 as part of the restaurant team. The management team spent almost six months refining the restaurant training materials and programs to engage the associates in executing world-class customer service at the restaurant. Devyani International plans to take this program across the Yum!

Yum! Brands’ groundbreaking announcement that it will add calorie counts to its menu boards at KFC, Pizza Hut and Taco Bell is fabulous news for health conscious consumers. Yum! is leaping ahead of all its competitors by providing the one piece of nutrition information that consumers most want. We applaud this move and encourage other major chains to follow this bold example. Yum! has gone an important step further voicing its support for legislation that would require restaurants to list calories on menus and menu boards. Michael Jacobson, Executive Director, Center for Science in the Public Interest,

This announcement that calories will be displayed on menu boards deserves loud applause. Yum!

We have markets leading the way in our system in this All new U.S. restaurants area including: feature compact fluorescent lamps (CFLs) where feasible as Australia shown in this KFC restaurant. We have completed a comprehensive measurement of our energy and water usage at three typical KFC restaurants to establish a baseline to determine average usage and prioritize areas for further reductions. We have also been testing the use of natural gas open fryers in place of electric fryers. Natural gas produces 75 percent less greenhouse gas than the fossil fuels burned to generate most of Australia’s electricity. All of our buildings have been fully insulated, and all glassed areas are now shaded to reduce solar heat gain and lessen the need for air conditioning.

The Future - Our Challenge, Our Advantage Our focus thus far has been centered primarily on electrical energy conservation because it represents the greatest amount of energy

consumed in our restaurants and our largest source of CO2 emissions. We recognize the need to broaden our scope to include rigorous measurements and reductions in our natural gas, solid waste, and oil impacts. Plans are being developed to evaluate conservation opportunities in these areas in 2009. We are also committed to exploring our use and disposal of water, and how we can reduce both our consumption and our water based effluents. Climate change is one of the most important issues now facing the world, and we are aware of the urgency for action. We feel that we have only just begun to unleash the potential of our business to make a positive impact on the environment. We’re moving forward and aggressively working to determine the fastest way to accomplish our goals.

45 Supply Chain We are committed to providing our customers with safe, delicious meals and operating restaurants that meet the highest food safety standards. This commitment is at the heart of our operations and our supply chain management, and is evident in every aspect of our business – from raw material procurement, including livestock and produce, to our restaurant food preparation and delivery. 46 We operate in a complex global Qualifying Our Suppliers Supply Chain business environment.

After occasional interactions with KFC representatives beginning in 2001, my activity as an advisor to the KFC animal welfare program started seriously when Yum! formed its KFC Animal Welfare Advisory Council (AWAC) in 2003. The Council is comprised of scientific experts such as myself, representatives of poultry companies that supply product to KFC, and personnel from various sectors of the Yum!/KFC organizations. At first, Yum! needed to learn a lot about poultry production and about the chicken because it had never dealt with live production before. Since 2003, the AWAC has expanded the scientific disciplines represented by its expert advisors to include animal behavior, breeding and genetics, avian physiology, and veterinary medicine. Many of the poultry company representatives on the Council have also had advanced training in relevant disciplines such as poultry nutrition and veterinary medicine. Yum! took another important step by hiring a KFC Manager of Poultry Health and Welfare to coordinate the activities of the Council and implement KFC’s animal welfare program. The reason I have been willing to serve on the AWAC is that I am convinced that KFC is committed to achieving feasible, knowledge-based, animal welfare advances in the care and management of the poultry flocks from which its products are sourced. The AWAC seeks to advise KFC on animal welfare-related matters in a way that reflects the consensus of society regarding the ethics of farm-animal care. It does not embrace the extreme views of animal activists; nor does it consider the status quo an option. I have always been impressed by the candor, knowledge and understanding of my fellow AWAC members. The AWAC has helped KFC define its animal welfare audit program and to engage its suppliers to effect meaningful improvements in poultry welfare. I am confident that this process will continue.

The Future of our Supply Chain We are dedicated to increasing our efforts in responsible supply chain practices. We have made considerable progress in a number of key areas that are a priority for us, given the nature of our global food business and position in the food-value chain. Our goal in the coming years is to standardize our global guidelines in food safety and animal welfare across our entire system. We will begin by convening a task force of key leaders in our sourcing system to identify the most important issues, then develop an action plan to cascade consistent standards worldwide. We will also increase transparency of our labor code of conduct guidelines to our suppliers, and stimulate them to proactively implement and monitor the code. We recognize that our decentralized business model, with predominantly franchised restaurants in over 110 countries and territories as well as manufacturing and processing plants in even more countries, will require a customized approach in our international markets. We seek to build a globally consistent and rigorous program that will reflect our rapid international growth, with a keen eye on emerging markets. We will work collaboratively with our suppliers, business partners and local stakeholders to ensure that we adapt our business and social requirements to local markets.

The Future of Giving at Yum! We believe that giving back and making a difference in the lives of the less fortunate is our privilege and our responsibility. The charitable spirit and culture of Yum! directs our efforts around the globe. World Hunger Relief is our signature global program to address hunger and hopelessness. Our partnership with the U.N. World Food Programme has succeeded in ways we never imagined possible. Through it we have gone beyond making a contribution to relieving hunger and we have built momentum for ongoing volunteerism and community engagement globally by giving our associates the tools, opportunities and encouragement to place themselves at the heart of pressing societal issues. It is not an easy task to rally our 1.4 million associates across the world around a single cause. Our work in 2007 was a great start, but more can and must be done. We have set a goal for 2008 of 100 percent systemwide participation, 5 million volunteer hours and a minimum $1,000 USD raised by every company and franchise restaurant in our system. In addition, we’ve taken our program to an even higher level by engaging in and making a global commitment at the Clinton Global Initiative held in late September, 2008 in New York City. Yum! Brands committed to raising and donating $80 million in cash over five years to help the WFP and other hunger relief agencies provide 200 million meals to school children in the areas of greatest need around the globe. We will look to this flagship program as a best practice and example for our future global initiatives.

Dear Stakeholders,

In the spirit of transparency, we attempted to provide you with an overview of the many areas in which we are practicing social responsibility and Serving the World. I recognize that our accomplishments will exceed some people’s expectations, while at the same time, may fall short of others. We are proud of the CR progress we have made in our first eleven years as a public company. By anyone’s measure, our impact on world hunger, through our partnership with the United Nations World Food Programme and other hunger relief agencies, is something we believe is both a privilege, and a responsibility. We plan to expand our movement year over year to help wipe out hunger in impoverished parts of the world where they’ve never even heard of our restaurant brands. We have a longstanding commitment to give back to the communities in which we operate, too, and believe strongly in nourishing the minds, bodies and spirits of those less fortunate. We believe our community support, with hunger relief as our primary cause, is and Jonathan Blum will increasingly become a hallmark of our great company.

Each of the company’s brands around the globe already offer “Better For You” options, and are looking at ways to reduce sodium and make continuous improvements to the nutritional profile of their products. This year, we were proud to announce that we will be the first in the U.S. to voluntarily place calories on the menu boards of our company-owned restaurants, and will encourage our franchisees to do the same. This will be completed by January 1, 2011. At the same time, we will continue to make full nutritional information about our products available on our websites and in restaurant brochures.
