Chanticleer Holdings Reminds its Rights Offering Shareholders of Record that the Deadline for all Subscriptions is December 29, 2016

CHARLOTTE, NC --(Marketwired - December 21, 2016) - Chanticleer Holdings, Inc. HOTR HOTRW ("Chanticleer", or the "Company"), owner and operator of multiple restaurant brands in the U.S. and abroad, today reminds its rights offering shareholders of record that they have the right but not the obligation to exercise their non-transferable right by 5:00 PM ET on December 29, 2016 unless extended by Chanticleer's sole discretion. Please be advised that most broker dealers require clients to exercise days in advance of expiration.

The Company is effectuating 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 consists of up to an aggregate of 1,000,000 units at a subscription price of $13.50 per unit. Holders of the Series 1 Preferred are 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.

The rights offering includes an over-subscription privilege, which entitles each rights holder that exercises its basic subscription privilege in full the right to purchase additional units that remain unsubscribed at the expiration of the rights offering, if any. The basic and over-subscription privileges may be exercised during the subscription period, subject to proration. Chanticleer may extend the offering up to an additional 30 days, in which case the offering would continue on a subscriptions first-in, first-served basis, with the potential for pro rata allocation of units among participants subscribing on the day, if any, on which the offering becomes over-subscribed. If the rights offering is not fully subscribed following expiration of the rights offering, Source Capital Group, Inc., the dealer-manager for the rights offering, has agreed to use its commercially reasonable efforts to place any unsubscribed units at the subscription price for an additional period of up to 45 days. Chanticleer intends to apply to have the units listed on a stock exchange or quoted on the OTC marketplace. There is no assurance that the units will be listed on a stock exchange or quoted on the OTC marketplace.

The rights offering proceeds will be used to retire certain of the Company's current debt obligations, provide funds for store-related growth and for general working capital. Assuming the rights offering is fully subscribed, the Company currently expects to receive gross proceeds of approximately $13.5 million.

The Company has engaged Source Capital Group, Inc. as the dealer-manager for the rights offering.

The rights offering is being made pursuant to Chanticleer's effective registration statement on Form S-1 (Reg. No. 333-214319) on file with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"). This press release is not an offer to sell these securities and is not soliciting an offer to buy these securities. The offering can be made only by a final prospectus.
