BUSINESS STRATEGY

Our business strategy, announced at the beginning of 2008, capitalizes on our strengths as a highly franchised restaurant system. The model provides diverse and reliable earnings with steady cash flow, and relatively low capital spending requirements. Over the last five years, the cash flow produced by our model has primarily been used to pay down debt and repurchase stock to enhance shareholder value.

Our strategy is built on the foundation of aligning and collaborating with our stakeholders, and is focused on the five pillars of our Strategic Plan listed below. We believe our execution of these proven strategies will continue to deliver positive results, making Popeyes more competitive and better positioned to gain market share and accelerate long-term growth.

To date, we have built a strong foundation for our domestic business. Going forward, our initiatives will remain focused on the same five successful strategies: create a culture of servant leaders, build a distinctive brand, run great restaurants, grow restaurant profits, and accelerate quality restaurants. We will build on this success by using the same Strategic Roadmap for our international business including making investments that we believe will help drive guest traffic, improve guest satisfaction, and strengthen our unit economics. This is the essential foundation for accelerating unit growth around the globe.

The Company's strategic plan focuses on the five pillars below which management believes are proven strategies for growing a high performance restaurant chain.

• Create a Culture of Servant Leaders - creating a culture so engaging that you can't wait to come work at Popeyes.
• Build Distinct Brand - offering a distinctive brand and menu with superior food at affordable prices.
• Create Memorable Experiences - service experience so good you can't wait to come back to Popeyes.
• Grow Restaurant Profits - reducing restaurant operating costs and increasing restaurant profitability while maintaining excellent food quality for our guests.
• Accelerate Quality Restaurants - building more restaurants across the U.S. and abroad with superior profits and investment returns.
