Item
      5.02. Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors;
      Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain
      Officers.
1.
Grant
                of awards to certain named executive officers under the Cash Performance
                Unit Plan for the 2007-2009 performance
                cycle.
On
      February 14, 2007, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (the
      "Committee") approved grants of new awards under the Company's Cash Performance
      Unit Plan, or "CPUP," for the performance period from January 1, 2007 to
      December 31, 2009 for Company's executive officers named in the Company's most
      recent proxy statement who are eligible to participate in the CPUP.
The
      target award for James A. Skinner is $3,600,000. The target award for Matthew
      H.
      Paull is $1,200,000. The target award for Ralph Alvarez is
      $2,000,000.
The
      2007-2009 CPUP operates on a three-year cycle with a cumulative payout at the
      end of the cycle. The final payout is determined based on the entire performance
      period. Participants will not receive any payout under the new CPUP until after
      the end of the performance period on December 31, 2009.
The
      performance measures that will be used to calculate CPUP payouts for the
      2007-2009 performance cycle are:
·
Consolidated
                three-year compounded annual "Brand McDonald's operating income growth"
                (weighted 75%), which reflects growth in income from all company-operated
                and franchised restaurants, excluding those not operated under McDonald's
                brand name; and
·
Average
                return on total assets, or "ROTA," (weighted
                25%).
To
      calculate the final payout, the amount based on the above performance measures
      will be adjusted by a multiplier based on the Company's cumulative total
      shareholder return versus the S&P 500 Index for the performance period,
      which may result in final payouts being increased or decreased by up to 15%.
The
      maximum final payout that each of Messrs. Skinner, Paull and Alvarez can earn
      under the 2007-2009 CPUP is 230% of the target award.
2.
Grant
                of 2006 awards of restricted stock units to certain named executive
                officers.
On
      February 14, 2007, the Committee approved grants of restricted stock units,
      or
"RSUs," under the Company's Amended and Restated 2001 Omnibus Stock Ownership
      Plan to Messrs. Skinner, Paull and Alvarez and determined the performance-based
      vesting conditions that will apply to the RSUs.
The
      RSUs
      cliff vest after three years, subject to a performance-based vesting condition
      linked to the level of compounded annual growth in diluted earnings per share,
      or "EPS," achieved by the Company during the three-year vesting period. The EPS
      target for full vesting of the RSUs is 7% compounded annual EPS growth. If
      less
      than 2% compounded growth is achieved, none of the RSUs will vest. If EPS growth
      is at or above the 2% threshold but below the 7% target, a portion of the awards
      will vest in proportion to the level of EPS growth achieved.

3.
Approval
                of 2006 annual cash incentive awards to certain named executive officers
                under the Target Incentive Plan.
On
      February 14, 2007, the Committee approved final payouts in respect of 2006
      under
      the Company's annual broad-based incentive plan, which is referred to as the
      Target Incentive Plan or "TIP," to Messrs. Skinner, Paull and Alvarez as well as
      Michael J. Roberts.
TIP
      payouts were determined based primarily on growth in Brand McDonald's operating
      income in 2006. The maximum final TIP payout that the executive officers could
      earn was 250% of their respective target awards.
Based
      on
      the superior performance of the Company and the individual performance of each
      of the respective officers in 2006, the final TIP payouts for Messrs. Skinner,
      Paull, Alvarez and Roberts were significantly above their target awards. The
      final TIP payouts for these officers are shown in the table below.

Approval
                of final payouts to named executive officers under the Cash Performance
                Unit Plan for the 2004-2006 performance
                cycle.
On
      February 14, 2007, the Committee approved final payouts to Messrs. Skinner,
      Paull, Alvarez, as well as Michael J. Roberts and M. Lawrence Light under the
      CPUP for the performance period from January 1, 2004 to December 31, 2006.
      Messrs. Roberts and Light received pro rated payouts because they were not
      eligible for participation in CPUP throughout the entire performance
      period.
The
      final
      CPUP awards for these officers for the 2004-2006 performance period were as
      follows:
Officer
Final
                Payout
James A. Skinner
$5,333,195
Matthew H. Paull
$1,759,416
Ralph Alvarez
$2,169,111
Michael J. Roberts
$3,440,663
M.
              Lawrence Light
$1,097,396
Final
      payouts were determined based on substantially the same performance metrics
      as
      those described above for the 2007-2009 performance cycle.
Based
      on
      the Company's superior performance during the 2004-2006 performance period, the
      final CPUP payouts for Messrs. Skinner, Paull and Alvarez were 215% of their
      target awards. Messrs. Roberts and Light received pro rated payouts, based
      on
      215% of their respective target awards, reflecting the portion of the
      performance period that had elapsed as of the date on which each of them ceased
      to be eligible to participate in CPUP.
