YUM BRANDS INC 4

Scott Mezvinsky, KFC Division CEO of YUM Brands Inc., exercised 483 stock appreciation rights and sold all 483 resulting common shares for roughly $74,000 under a 10b5-1 plan.

On August 3, 2026, Scott Mezvinsky, KFC Division CEO of YUM Brands Inc., exercised 483 stock appreciation rights at a base price of $68.00 per share, receiving 483 shares of common stock, and contemporaneously disposed of 215 shares at $153.28 per share and sold the remaining 268 shares at $153.15 per share under a Rule 10b5-1 trading plan, resulting in no directly held shares after these transactions. The exercise itself did not involve a cash outlay for the underlying shares, and the subsequent market sales of all shares received from the SAR exercise, totaling approximately $74,050, appear to be a planned liquidity/monetization event rather than an open-market purchase. Post-transaction, the reported direct common stock holdings are zero, though derivative holdings and other compensation awards may remain outstanding under equity plans.
