Darden Restaurants, Inc. Savings Plan

On December 18, 2007, Darden Restaurants, Inc. ("Darden" or the "Company") (NYSE: DRI) reduced its diluted net earnings per share growth for fiscal 2008. Darden and other administrators of the Darden Savings Plan (the "Plan") may have breached their ERISA-mandated fiduciary duties of loyalty and prudence to participants and beneficiaries of the Plan. A breach may have occurred if the fiduciaries failed to manage the assets of the Plan prudently and loyally by investing the assets in Company stock when it was no longer a prudent investment for participants' retirement savings.

Darden employees who own Darden stock through the Plan may be able to recover some of their losses. If you or anyone you know is a member of the Darden Plan and purchased Darden stock through the Plan, please complete a Darden Plan Complaint Form for a free evaluation.
