On October 8, 2014, 1011778 B.C. Unlimited Liability Company, an unlimited liability company organized under the laws of British Columbia, and New Red Finance, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Issuers”), both of which are newly formed by Burger King Worldwide, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”) in connection with the Transactions (as defined below), consummated the offering of $2.25 billion aggregate principal amount of 6.00% second lien senior secured notes due 2022 (the “Notes”). The Notes were offered (i) to finance a portion of the cash consideration for the combination of Tim Hortons Inc., a corporation organized under the laws of Canada (“Tim Hortons”), and the Company by 1011773 B.C. Unlimited Liability Company, an unlimited liability company organized under the laws of British Columbia (“Holdings”), pursuant to an Arrangement Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Arrangement Agreement”) described in the current report on Form 8-K filed by the Company with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on August 29, 2014, (ii) to partially fund the repayment of any and all of Tim Hortons and the Company’s existing indebtedness, (iii) to pay related fees, costs, expenses and other related payments associated with the transactions described in the Arrangement Agreement (the “Transactions”), and (iv) for other general corporate purposes. The Arrangement Agreement was filed as an exhibit to the August 29, 2014 Form 8-K. Prior to the closing of the Transactions, the Notes will not be guaranteed by the Company or any of its subsidiaries or by Tim Hortons or any of its subsidiaries.

The gross proceeds from the sale of the Notes, together with an additional $10,875,000, were deposited into an escrow account on October 8, 2014 with Wilmington Trust, National Association, as trustee and escrow agent. The Issuers intend to make additional deposits in amounts equal to accrued interest of approximately $11,250,000 per month until the release of the escrowed funds upon the closing of the Transactions. If the Transactions are not consummated on or prior to May 26, 2015 and the Issuers notify the trustee and the escrow agent that the Arrangement Agreement has been terminated, the Notes will be subject to a special mandatory redemption at a price equal to 100% of the initial issue price of the Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest from October 8, 2014, to, but not including, the date of such special mandatory redemption.

The Notes will not be registered under the Securities Act of 1933 and the Notes may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from registration requirements. This current report on Form 8-K is neither an offer to sell nor a solicitation of an offer to buy the Notes or any other securities and shall not constitute an offer, solicitation or sale in any jurisdiction in which such offering, solicitation or sale would be unlawful.
