* On December 17, 2007, the assets of the McDonald’s Ventures 401(k) Plan (the "Plan") were merged with and into the McDonald’s Corporation Profit Sharing and Savings Plan, and the Plan ceased to exist as a separate plan.  As a result, interests in the Plan which constituted securities registered pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, no longer exist.  Therefore, this Form 15 has been filed to suspend the Plan's duty to file reports under Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, including on Form 11-K.
