Former McDonald’s CEO Steve Easterbrook has returned $105 million severance payment after the company announced on Dec. 16 that it has settled its lawsuit against him.

The fast-food giant brought a suit against its disgraced former chief executive back in August 2020, claiming that he lied during the company’s internal probe into his inappropriate relationship with a subordinate before his firing in November 2019.
