Restaurant Brands International Inc. Announces Pricing of Secondary Offering of Common Shares
In connection with the offering, the Selling Shareholder entered into a forward sale agreement with BofA Securities (the "forward counterparty") with respect to up to 17,626,570 common shares. In connection with the forward sale agreement, the forward counterparty or its affiliates are expected to borrow and sell through the underwriter 9,785,784 common shares in the offering, and in addition to sell through the underwriter up to 7,840,786 common shares in the offering to the extent certain current investors that have indicated an interest in purchasing such shares complete such purchase.
