CHARLOTTE, NC --(Marketwired - November 21, 2016) - Chanticleer Holdings, Inc. HOTR HOTRW ("Chanticleer Holdings," or the "Company"), owner and operator of multiple restaurant brands in the U.S. and abroad, announced that it has set November 30, 2016 as ownership date for its anticipated rights offering.

The rights offering is expected to commence as soon as possible after the effectiveness of the S-1 registration statement.

Shareholders or warrant holders must own Chanticleer's Common stock or HOTRW warrants as of 4:00 PM ET on Wednesday, November 30, 2016 to be considered a shareholder or warrant holder of record on December 5th, 2016. The Company plans to effectuate its rights offering through the distribution of non-transferable subscription rights to purchase units, each unit consisting of one share of redeemable Series 1 Preferred Stock and one Series 1 Warrant to purchase 10 shares of common stock. The proposed rights offering will consist of up to an aggregate of 1,000,000 units at a subscription price of $13.50 per unit. The basic subscription privilege is subject to pro-ration.

Holders of the Series 1 Preferred will be entitled to receive cumulative dividends at the rate of 9% of the purchase price per year for a term of seven years, payable quarterly. Each Series 1 Warrant may be exercised at any-time within 7-years of issuance by surrendering one share of Series 1 Preferred.
