Our Use of Your Information
We use your Personal Information to facilitate the services you request. We have tailored our Privacy Policy to
adequately inform you of the use of your Personal Information.
Collection and Use of Employee Personal Information
SSA collects Personal Information from its employees and applicants (human resource data) in connection with
administration of its Human Resources programs and functions. These programs and functions include, but are not
limited to: job applications and hiring programs, compensation and benefit programs, performance appraisals, training,
access to SSA and its affiliates’ facilities and computer networks, employee profiles, internal intranet employee
directories, Human Resource recordkeeping, and other employment related purposes.
It is the policy of SSA to keep all past and present employee information private from disclosure to third parties, except
for our affiliate Doctor’s Associates Inc. (“DAI”), who provides various Human Resource functions to SSA pursuant to a
service contract. There are certain business related exceptions and they are:

2. Inquiries from third parties with a signed authorisation from the employee to release the information, except in
situations where limited verbal verifications are acceptable (see below);
3. Third parties with which SSA has contractual agreements to assist in administration of company sponsored

A franchisee and prospective franchisee’s information may be shared with the Development Agent in their area. A

third party.
As described above, SSA, its affiliates, third party service providers and Development Agents may share and exchange
Personal Information in order to process franchisee and Development Agent applications, administer the SUBWAY®
franchise system, implement the SUBWAY® Gift Card program, implement Subway Express™ and protect the integrity
of the SUBWAY® franchise system and trademarks. Personal Information may be provided to a courier or freight

Some costs will vary in relation to the physical size of the restaurant. A lower cost restaurant is one that would require fewer leasehold improvements, less seating and fewer equipment expenditures. Moderate and higher cost restaurants may require extensive interior renovations,
extensive seating and additional equipment. If you are purchasing a franchise for another location opportunity, such as a non-traditional, satellite or school lunch program location, the above listed capital requirements may vary and could be substantially lower depending on the
necessary equipment you must acquire or changes in leasehold improvements you must make. The above figures do not include extensive exterior renovations.

GENERAL BREAKDOWN FOR:
Franchise Capital Requirements
The SUBWAY® franchise has some of the
lowest start-up costs in the industry. Your
complete investment will depend on your
location, size, and the extent of renovations
required. There are traditional and nontraditional locations for SUBWAY® franchises.
A traditional restaurant is one you see in a
shopping center or on the street corner. A
non-traditional restaurant is a store located in
an airport, hospital, truck stop, college, bus
terminal, or other sites associated with
another business. The non-traditional
locations are usually owned by existing
franchisees that have proven to be very
successful with the SUBWAY® system. If you
own a location such as a convenience store, or
any non-traditional site, you may have the
opportunity to buy a franchise for that location.
Capital requirements for your area can be
found online at www.subway.com.
The estimated costs provided, represent a
wide range of possible locations throughout
the world. Remember that costs will vary in
relation to the physical size of the restaurant.

NOTABLE GLOBAL QUOTABLES
I´m a Chef by profession
and have worked as such for over 20 years in
restaurants and hotels in Europe. We were so confident of
the SUBWAY® restaurants franchise that we sold all our properties in
Iceland to open our first SUBWAY® store in July 1999 in Benidorm, Spain.
I now have 7 stores open in my territory including one in Alicante Airport.
Things are looking bright for SUBWAY® stores and franchisees in Comunidad
Valenciana.
Helgi B. Helgason, DA Spain, owns 2 franchises
I grew up on SUBWAY®
while living in the village of Manotick, Ontario,
and after working at the local store first as a sandwich artist
and then store manager, I soon realized that the concept and the brand
itself had great potential. After identifying the UK & Ireland as an untapped
market back in 1997, I decided to move to England to become a Franchisee and
Development Agent. The quality of the product and the level of customer service that
SUBWAY® provides was exactly what was needed in this marketplace, and SUBWAY® soon
became one of the top food service providers on the High Street. With the assistance of
my sister, Andrea Fleck, we are responsible for the development of the SUBWAY® chain
within the Five Counties. Now totalling 63 stores, SUBWAY® is the largest QSR in the five
Counties, of which we are the proud owners of three stores. The SUBWAY® chain
provides the product, structure, and support that is required to assist their
Franchisees to reach their goals.
James Fleck, DA United Kingdom, 63 franchises
As an American, I grew up on SUBWAY® food and I was always a
huge fan. I was looking for a business opportunity when I was living in Scotland
and SUBWAY® was a great fit for my husband and me. We opened 3 restaurants in
Scotland and we were very happy but we saw an opportunity to develop the Subway
brand in France. Since my husband Eric is French, we decided to take it. We are
responsible for development in Normandy and the Center North of France and now
have 20 restaurants in our region. We are scheduled to open 5 more this year
and we are proud to be part of the SUBWAY® family.
Allison and Eric LeFebvre, DA’s France - 20 restaurants
Poland is the most dynamic and expanding market
for QSR franchising in Eastern Europe and SUBWAY® is the fastest
growing brand of restaurants worldwide! Right now, I run 5 SUBWAY®
restaurants in Warsaw, and considering other areas of Poland. That is constant growth,
so by end of 2012, I should have 7 restaurants. I predict that the number of SUBWAY®
restaurants in Central Europe will explode, because our subs are fantastic, customers love the
taste, and how it is made like they like it, to their order, in front of their eyes. Recently
we introduced soups, coffee/breakfast and catering to Poland. So we have added new
categories, which is very exciting.
Michael Moritz, Franchisee, Warsaw, Poland - 5 restaurants
After working in the SUBWAY®
system for seven years as an employee, first as a sandwich
artist and eventually as a store manager, all while in college - I had the
chance to work as an Area Supervisor for a multi-unit owner. I witnessed firsthand
how the SUBWAY® franchise is such a great opportunity. When I was offered the chance
to buy five restaurants and become a multi-unit owner myself, it was a dream come
true. Sixteen years later, I own 6 restaurants and am a member of the local SFAFT
board. The SUBWAY® system has been a very lucrative and exciting business to be part
of. It has made all of my financial and personal goals a reality, while at the same
time, I enjoy a quality lifestyle.
