On November 13, 2025, Restaurant Brands International Inc. (“RBI” or the “Company”) entered into an underwriting agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with BofA Securities, Inc. as the underwriter (the “Underwriter”), HL1 17 LP (the “Selling Shareholder”), an affiliate of 3G Capital Partners Ltd. (“3G Capital”), as the selling shareholder, and BofA Securities, Inc. as the forward seller and forward purchaser (in both roles, the “Forward Counterparty”) relating to the sale of up to 17,626,570 common shares (the “Shares”) of RBI, no par value (the “Common Shares”) to the Underwriter (the “Offering”). The Offering relates to Common Shares that the Selling Shareholder will receive upon exchange of an equal number of Class B exchangeable limited partnership units (the “Partnership exchangeable units”) in Restaurant Brands International Limited Partnership (“RBI LP”), which is expected to close on or before December 3, 2025 (the “Exchange”). RBI will not sell any Common Shares in the Offering and will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the Shares in the Offering.

Pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, the Forward Counterparty agreed to sell up to 17,626,570 Common Shares to the Underwriter, at a price of $68.72 per Common Share, subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein. In connection with the Offering, the Selling Shareholder entered into a forward sale agreement (the “Forward Sale Agreement”) with the Forward Counterparty with respect to up to an aggregate of 17,626,570 Common Shares (the “Forward Shares”). In connection with the Forward Sale Agreement, the Forward Counterparty or its affiliates agreed 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 that will be delivered to the Underwriter in the Offering to the extent two current investors that have indicated an interest in purchasing such shares complete such purchase. The Selling Shareholder is expected to physically settle the Forward Sale Agreement by delivering to the Forward Counterparty the number of Common Shares sold in the Offering. Upon settlement of the Forward Sale Agreement, the Selling Shareholder will receive, in cash, $68.72 per Common Share, subject to certain adjustments as provided in the Forward Sale Agreement. The settlement of the Forward Sale Agreement is expected to occur on or before December 3, 2025.

The Offering is expected to close on November 17, 2025.

Pursuant to the terms of the Underwriting Agreement, the Selling Shareholder, 3G Restaurant Brands Holdings LP (“3G RBH”) and an affiliate of 3G RBH (the “3G Funds”) have agreed with the Underwriter, subject to certain exceptions, not to dispose of or hedge any of their Common Shares or securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common Shares during the period from the date of the Offering, continuing through the date 45 days thereafter, except with the prior written consent of the Underwriter. In addition, RBI and the Selling Shareholder have agreed to indemnify the Underwriter against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or to contribute to payments the Underwriter may be required to make in respect of those liabilities.
