A Letter from Clarence Otis Jr.readyandwillingto deliverDarden Restaurants was built on a rich heritage of being of service to others –guests and employees alike. And even during challenging economic times,we continue to lead by example. As our company has grown, our opportunitiesto make a difference in the quality of life in the communities where we live andwork have also increased, and we have risen to the challenge. The key is anuncompromising focus on doing what is right.New opportunities, such as a focused effort to help young people gain access topost-secondary education and increasing our sustainability efforts, have ascendedto the forefront. Meanwhile, we continue the programs we have long championedthat promote diversity, respect, fairness and inclusiveness – core to our foundingvalues as a company.Our commitment to our values and to doing the right thing drives how we operateevery aspect of our business. We think you will find that our service philosophyextends well beyond the walls of our restaurants. As we look ahead, we pledgeto enhance our service to others by continuing to grow as a profitable company,an employer of choice and an actively involved corporate citizen.I invite you to take a look at our 2010 community service report and the impactwe made in the communities we touched and join us as we continue to lead incommunities across the country by giving back.an uncompromising focuson doing what isright2 / A L E T T E R F R O M C L A R E N C E O T I S J R .
