and Amendment No. 12 to Schedule 13D filed by the Filing Persons with the
Securities and Exchange Commission on February 11, 2008, the "Schedule 13D"),
relating to the Common Shares, $.10 stated value (the "Shares"), of Wendy's
International, Inc., an Ohio corporation (the "Issuer" or "Wendy's"). Each
capitalized term used but not defined herein has the meaning ascribed to such
term in the Schedule 13D.

Items 4 and 7 of the Schedule 13D are hereby amended and supplemented as
follows:

Item 4. Purpose of the Transaction.

On April 18, 2008, Trian and Triarc sent a letter to the Issuer, a copy of which
is attached as Exhibit 19 to this Schedule 13D. In the letter, Trian and Triarc
stated that they are very concerned about the current direction of the Company.
On April 17, 2008, Trian and Triarc were informed that a special committee of
the Issuer's board of directors had rejected two acquisition proposals made by
Trian and Triarc.



It is the firm belief of the Filing Persons that any transaction entered into by
the Issuer should be subject to the approval of the Issuer's shareholders and
not just the special committee of the board of directors.

Trian intends to contact fellow shareholders for the purpose of calling a
special meeting of the shareholders of the Issuer, at which all shareholders
will have the opportunity to vote on the future direction of the Issuer.

Triarc is considering its alternatives with respect to the Issuer and the other
Filing Persons are considering their alternatives with respect to their
investment in the Issuer. Trian intends to contact and discuss with other
shareholders of the Issuer their respective views regarding their investment in
the Issuer, the conduct of the special committee and possible strategies to
maximize shareholder value. Such strategies could include, among other
possibilities, shareholder participation in a bid by Triarc to acquire the
Issuer. The Filing Persons may also seek to effect a plan or proposal related to
(a) an acquisition of additional securities of the Issuer; (b) an extraordinary
corporate transaction, such as a merger or acquisition involving the Issuer and
its subsidiaries; (c) a sale or transfer of a material amount of assets of the
Issuer or of any of its subsidiaries; (d) a change in the present board of
directors or management of the Issuer, including a plan or proposal to change
the number or term of directors or to fill any existing vacancies on the board;
(e) a material change in the present capitalization or dividend policy of the
Issuer; (f) any other material change in the Issuer's business or corporate
structure; (g) changes in the Issuer's charter, bylaws or instruments
corresponding thereto or other actions which may impede the acquisition of
control of the Issuer; (h) the causing of a class of securities of the Issuer to
be delisted from a national securities exchange or to cease to be authorized to
be quoted in an inter-dealer quotation system of a registered national
securities association; (i) a class of equity securities of the issuer becoming
eligible for termination of registration pursuant to Section 12(g)(4) of the
Securities Exchange Act; or (j) any action similar to the foregoing. Although
the Filing Persons are actively exploring their options with respect to each of
the foregoing, there can be no assurance that Triarc or the other Filing Persons
will seek to implement any one or more of the foregoing.

The Filing Persons other than Triarc intend to review their investment in the
Issuer on a continuing basis. Depending on various factors including, without
limitation, the Issuer's financial position, results and strategic direction,
price levels of the Shares, conditions in the securities and credit markets and
general economic and industry conditions, the Filing Persons other than Triarc
may in addition to the foregoing take such actions with respect to their
investment in the Issuer as they deem appropriate including, but not limited to,
selling or transferring some or all of their Issuer Securities, or communicating
with the Issuer and other investors.

Item 7.  Material to be Filed as Exhibits.

19. Letter, dated April 18, 2008, from Trian and Triarc to James V. Pickett,
Chairman of the Board of the Issuer



                                    SIGNATURE

      After reasonable inquiry and to the best of each of the undersigned's
knowledge and belief, each of the undersigned certifies that the information set
forth in this statement is true, complete and correct.
