Explanation of Responses:

Id Content
F1 Restricted stock units convert into common stock on a one-for-one basis.
F2 The RSUs vest on the first to occur of one year from date of grant and the date of the next annual meeting of shareholders. The director elected to defer settlement until 11/11/2025.
F3 The number of restricted stock units was adjusted in connection with the spin-off (the Spin-Off) of Four Corners Property Trust, Inc. (FCPT) from Darden Restaurants, Inc. (Darden) on November 9, 2015. The adjustment reflects the product of (i) the number of shares subject to the restricted stock unit awards immediately prior to the Spin-Off and (ii) the ratio of (A) the pre-Spin-Off closing price on November 9, 2015 of Darden Common Stock (Darden Pre-Spin-Off Price) and (B) the difference between the Darden Pre-Spin-Off Price and the volume weighted average price of FCPT Common Stock trading on the NYSE on the trading day immediately following the distribution date (adjusted to reflect the Darden-to-FCPT pro rata share distribution ratio in the Spin-Off).
