event or events constituting Good Reason and the Company shall have failed to cure such event or events within thirty (30) business days after receipt of such notice. 

(e) Procedure for Termination of Employment.

 (iii) Section 409A of the Code. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary in Section 11(e)(ii), the determination of whether and when the Date of Separation from Service occurs for the purpose of determining when any amount that is “nonqualified deferred compensation” subject to Section 409A
of the Code becomes due and payable shall be made in a manner consistent with, and based on the presumptions set forth in, Section 1.409A-1(h) of the regulations promulgated under Section 409 of the Code. Solely for purposes of the
determination referred to in the preceding sentence, “Company” shall include all persons with whom the Company would be considered a single employer under Sections 414(b) and 414(c) of the Code. In the event that the Date of
Separation from Service, as determined in accordance with this Section 11(e)(iii), occurs before the applicable notice period specified in Section 11(e)(ii) has elapsed, the Company may elect to pay, or commence payment of, any amounts to
which this Section 11(e)(iii) applies following the completion of such notice period, but not later than the end of the taxable year in which the Date of Separation from Service occurs. 

(f) Payments Upon Certain Terminations. 

(i) In the event of Executive’s Separation from Service with the Company due to a termination of
his employment by the Company Without Cause or Executive’s resignation from employment for Good Reason during the Employment Period, the Company shall pay to Executive, within thirty (30) days of the Date of Separation from Service, his
(x) Base Salary through the Date of Separation from Service, to the extent not previously paid, (y) reimbursement for any unreimbursed business expenses incurred by Executive prior to the Date of Separation from Service that are subject to
reimbursement pursuant to Section 10(a) and (z) payment for vacation time accrued as of the Date of Separation from Service but unused (such amounts under clauses (x), (y) and (z), collectively the “Accrued
Obligations”). In addition, in the event of
Executive’s Separation from Service as described in this Section 11 (f)(i), provided that Executive executes and delivers to the Company and does not revoke, within the applicable period of time provided for under the Age Discrimination in
Employment Act of 1967, as amended, and in no event later than sixty (60) days following the Executive’s Date of Separation from Service, an irrevocable Separation Agreement and General Release substantially in the form approved by the
Company, Executive shall be entitled to the following payments and benefits: 
 (1) During the period commencing
on the first business day following the Date of Separation from Service and ending on the 30-month anniversary of the Separation from Service (the “Severance Period”) Executive shall receive, in substantially equal installments, in
accordance with the Company’s regular payroll policies as in effect on the Date of Separation from Service but in no event less frequently than monthly, an aggregate amount equal to two and one-half times (2.5x) the


  
 7 








 
Executive’s Base Salary as in effect on the Date of Separation from Service. Any amounts payable pursuant to this Section 11(f)(i) shall not be paid until the first scheduled payment
date following the date the Separation Agreement and General Release is executed and no longer subject to revocation, with the first such payment being in an amount equal to the total amount to which Executive would otherwise have been entitled
during the period following the Date of Separation from Service if such delay had not been required; provided, however, that any such amounts that constitute “nonqualified deferred compensation” within the meaning of Section 409A of
the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder shall not commence until the 60th day following the Date of Separation from Service to the extent necessary to avoid adverse tax consequences under Section 409A of the Code, and, if such
payments are required to be so delayed, the first payment shall be in an amount equal to the total amount to which Executive would otherwise have been entitled during the period following the date of termination if such deferral had not been
required. 
 (2) subject to Section 22(k)(iii) herein, continued coverage during the period commencing on
the Date of Separation from Service and ending on the one-year anniversary of the Date of Separation from Service under the Company’s medical, dental and life insurance plans referred to in Section 9 for Executive and his eligible
dependents participating in such plans immediately prior to the Date of Separation from Service, subject to timely payment by Executive of all premiums, contributions and other co-payments required to be paid by active senior executives of the
Company under the terms of such plans as in effect from time to time; and 
 (3) At the discretion of the
Company, the services of an outplacement agency as selected by and for such period of time as determined by the Chief Human Resources Officer of the Company; provided that in no event will the duration of such outplacement services exceed the one
year period following the Separation of Service and that any reimbursement to be paid by the Company for such services will be made by the end of the year following the year in which the Date of Separation from Service occurs. 

Executive shall not have a duty to mitigate the costs to the Company under this Section 11(f)(i), nor shall any payments from the
Company to Executive pursuant to this Section 11(f) be reduced, offset or canceled by any compensation or fees earned by (whether or not paid currently) or offered to Executive during the Severance Period by a subsequent employer or other
Person (as defined in Section 22(1) below) for which Executive performs services, including but not limited to consulting services. The foregoing notwithstanding, should Executive receive or be offered health or medical benefits coverage during
the Severance Period by a subsequent employer or Person for whom Executive performs services, Executive shall notify the Company of this within seven (7) business days of such receipt or offer, as applicable, and all similar health and medical
benefits coverage provided by the Company to Executive shall terminate as of the effective date of such new coverage.

 (ii) In the event of Executive’s Separation from
Service due to a termination of his employment (x) upon his death or (y) by the Company for Cause or as a result of Executive’s Disability or (z) by Executive without Good Reason, in any such case during the Employment Period,
the Company shall pay to Executive (or, in the event of Executive’s death, to his estate) the Accrued Obligations within thirty (30) days following the Date of Separation from Service. In addition, if Executive’s employment shall
terminate upon his death or be terminated by the Company as a result of Executive’s Disability during the Employment Period, the Company shall pay to Executive (or, in the event of Executive’s death, to his estate) the Pro-Rata Bonus, if
any, in one lump sum on the Bonus Payment Date for the fiscal year of the Company that includes the Date of Separation from Service, but in no event later than two and a half (2 1/2) months following the end of the applicable fiscal year in
which such Annual Bonus was earned. For purposes, of this Section 11(f)(ii), “Bonus Payment Date” means the date on which annual bonuses with respect to a fiscal year are actually paid by the Company to its active executives. For
purposes of this Section 11(f)(ii), “Pro-Rata Bonus” means a portion of Executive’s Annual Bonus for the fiscal year of the Company during which Executive was employed that includes the Date of Separation from Service,
such portion to equal the product of (1) the Annual Bonus that would have been payable to Executive for such fiscal year had Executive remained employed for the entire fiscal year, determined based on the extent to which the Company actually
achieves the performance goals for such year established pursuant to Section 4, multiplied by (2) a fraction, the numerator of which is equal to the number of days in such fiscal year that preceded the Date of Separation from Service and
the denominator of which is equal to 365. 
 (iii) Except as specifically set forth in this
Section 11(f), no termination benefits shall be payable to or in respect of Executive’s employment with the Company or its Affiliates. 
 (g) Resignation upon Termination. Effective as of any Date of Separation from Service under this Section 11 or otherwise as of the date of Executive’s termination of employment with the
Company, Executive shall resign, in writing, from all Board and Board committee memberships (if any) and other positions then held by him, or to which he has been appointed, designated or nominated, with the Company and its Affiliates. 

12. Restrictive Covenants. Each of the Company and Executive agrees that the Executive will have a prominent role in the
management of the business, and the development of the goodwill, of the Company and its Affiliates, and will establish and develop relations and contacts with the principal franchisees, customers and suppliers of the Company and its Affiliates
throughout the world, all of which constitute valuable goodwill of, and could be used by Executive to compete unfairly with, the Company and its Affiliates, In addition, Executive recognizes that he will have access to and become familiar with or
exposed to Confidential 

  
 9 








 
Information (as such term is defined below), in particular, trade secrets, proprietary information, customer lists, and other valuable business information of the Company pertaining or related to
the quick service restaurant business. Executive agrees that Executive could cause grave harm to the Company if he, among other things, worked for the Company’s competitors, solicited the Company’s employees away from the Company or
solicited the Company’s franchisees upon the termination of Executive’s employment with the Company or misappropriated or divulged the Company’s Confidential Information, and that as such, the Company has legitimate business interests
in protecting its good will and Confidential Information, and, as such, these legitimate business interests justify the following restrictive covenants: 
 (a) Confidentiality. 
 (i) Executive acknowledges and
agrees that the terms of this Agreement, including all addendums and attachments hereto, are confidential. Except as required by law or the requirements of any stock exchange, Executive agrees not to disclose any information contained in this
Agreement to anyone, other than to Executive’s lawyer, financial advisor or immediate family members. If Executive discloses any information contained in this Agreement to his lawyer, financial advisor or immediate family members as permitted
herein, Executive agrees to immediately tell each such individual that he or she must abide by the confidentiality restrictions contained herein and keep such information confidential as well. 

. (ii) Executive agrees that during his employment with the Company and thereafter, Executive will not, directly or
indirectly (A) disclose any Confidential Information to any Person (other than, only with respect to the period that Executive is employed by the Company, to an employee or outside advisor of the Company who requires such information to perform
his or her duties for the Company), or (B) use any Confidential Information for Executive’s own benefit or the benefit of any third party. “Confidential Information” means confidential, proprietary or commercially
sensitive information relating to (Y) the Company or its Affiliates, or members of their respective management or boards or (Z) any third parties who do business with the Company or its Affiliates, including franchisees and suppliers.
Confidential Information includes, without limitation, marketing plans, business plans, financial information and records, operation methods, personnel information, drawings, designs, information regarding product development, other commercial or
business information and any other information not available to the public generally. The foregoing obligation shall not apply to any Confidential Information that has been previously disclosed to the public or is in the public domain (other than by
reason of a breach of Executive’s obligations to hold such Confidential Information confidential). If Executive is required or requested by a court or governmental agency to disclose Confidential Information, Executive must notify the General
Counsel of the Company of such disclosure obligation or request no later than three (3) business days after Executive learns of such obligation or request, and permit the Company to take all lawful steps it deems appropriate to prevent or limit
the required disclosure. 

  
 10 









 (b) Non-Competition. Executive agrees that during his employment with
the Company, Executive shall devote all of his skill, knowledge, commercial efforts and business time to the conscientious and good faith performance of his duties and responsibilities to the Company to the best of his ability and Executive shall
not, directly or indirectly, be employed by, render services for, engage in business with or serve as an agent or consultant to any Person other than the Company. Executive further agrees that during his employment with the Company and for the
period of one (1) year (or, in circumstances in which Executive receives severance payments pursuant to Section 11(f)(i) hereof, the Severance Period) following Executive’s Separation from Service with the Company, Executive shall not
directly or indirectly engage in any activities that are competitive with the quick service restaurant business conducted by the Company, and Executive shall not, directly or indirectly, become employed by, render services for, engage in business
with, serve as an agent or consultant to, or become a partner, member, principal, stockholder or other owner of, any Person or entity that engages in the quick serve restaurant business, provided that Executive shall be permitted to hold a one
percent (1%) or less interest in the equity or debt securities of any publicly traded company. Executive’s duties and responsibilities involve, and/or will affect, the operation and management of the Company on a worldwide basis. Executive
will obtain Confidential Information that will affect the Company’s operations throughout the world. Accordingly, Executive acknowledges that the Company has legitimate business interests in requiring a worldwide geographic scope and
application of this non-compete provision, and agrees that this non-compete provision applies on a worldwide basis. 
 (c) Non-Solicitation of Employees and Franchisees. During the period of Executive’s employment with the Company and for the one (1)-year period (or, in circumstances in which Executive
receives severance payments pursuant to Section 11(f)(i) hereof, the Severance Period, Executive shall not, directly or indirectly, by himself or through any third party, whether on Executive’s own behalf or on behalf of any other Person or
entity, (i) solicit or induce or endeavor to solicit or induce, divert, employ or retain, (ii) interfere with the relationship of the Company or any of its Affiliates with, or (iii) attempt to establish a business relationship of a
nature that is competitive with the business of the Company with any Person that is or was (during the last twelve (12) months of Executive’s employment with the Company) (A) an employee of the Company or any of its Affiliates or
engaged to provide services to any such entity, or (B) a franchisee of the Company or any of its Affiliates. 
 13. Work
Product. Executive agrees that all of Executive’s work product (created solely or jointly with others, and including any intellectual property or moral rights in such work product), given, disclosed, created, developed or prepared in
connection with Executive’s employment with the Company, whether ensuing during or after Executive’s employment with the Company (“Work Product”) shall exclusively vest in and be the sole and exclusive property of the
Company and shall constitute “work made for hire” (as that term is defined under Section 101 of the U.S. Copyright Act, 17 U.S.C. § 101) with the Company being the person for whom the work was prepared. In the event that any such
Work Product is deemed not to be a “work made for hire” or does not vest by operation of law in the Company, Executive hereby irrevocably assigns, transfers and conveys to the Company, exclusively and perpetually, all right, title and
interest which Executive may have or acquire in and to such Work Product throughout 

  
 11 









 
the world, including without limitation any copyrights and patents, and the right to secure registrations, renewals, reissues, and extensions thereof. The Company and its Affiliates or their
designees shall have the exclusive right to make full and complete use of, and make changes to all Work Product without restrictions or liabilities of any kind, and Executive shall not have the right to use any such materials, other than within the
legitimate scope and purpose of Executive’s employment with the Company. Executive shall promptly disclose to the Company the creation or existence of any Work Product and shall take whatever additional lawful action may be necessary, and sign
whatever documents the Company may require, in order to secure and vest in the Company or its designee all right, title and interest in and to all Work Product and any intellectual property rights therein (including full cooperation in support of
any Company applications for patents and copyright or trademark registrations). 
 14. Return of Company Property. In the
event of termination of Executive’s employment for any reason, Executive shall return to the Company all of the property of the Company and its Affiliates, including without limitation all materials or documents containing or pertaining to
Confidential Information, and including without limitation, any Company car, all computers (including laptops), cell phones, keys, PDAs, Blackberries, credit cards, facsimile machines, televisions, card access to any Company building, customer
lists, computer disks, reports, files, e-mails, work papers, Work Product, documents, memoranda, records and software, computer access codes or disks and instructional manuals, internal policies, and other similar materials or documents which
Executive used, received or prepared, helped prepare or supervised the preparation of in connection with Executive’s employment with the Company. Executive agrees not to retain any copies, duplicates, reproductions or excerpts of such material
or documents. 
 15. Compliance With Company Policies. During Executive’s employment with the Company, Executive
shall be governed by and be subject to, and Executive hereby agrees to comply with, all Company policies, procedures, rules and regulations applicable to employees generally or to employees at Executive’s grade level, including without
limitation, the Burger King Companies’ Code of Business Ethics and Conduct, in each case, as they may be amended from time to time in the Company’s sole discretion (collectively, the “Policies”). 

16. Data Protection & Privacy. 
 (a) Executive acknowledges that the Company, directly or through its Affiliates, collects and processes data (including personal sensitive data and information retained in email) relating to Executive.
Executive hereby agrees to such collection and processing and further agrees to execute the Burger King Corporation Employee Consent to Collection and Processing of Personal Information, a copy of which is attached to this Agreement as Attachment 1.

 (b) To ensure regulatory compliance and for the protection of its workers, customers, suppliers and business,

 17. Injunctive Relief with Respect to Covenanats; Forum, Venue and Jurisdiction.
Executive acknowledges and agrees that a breach by Executive of any of Section 12, 13, 14, 15 or 16 is a material breach of this Agreement and that remedies at law may be inadequate to protect the Company and its Affiliates in the event of such
breach, and, without prejudice to any other rights and remedies otherwise available to the Company, Executive agrees to the granting of injunctive relief in the Company’s favor in connection with any such breach or violation without proof of
irreparable harm, plus attorneys’ fees and costs to enforce these provisions. Executive further acknowledges and agrees that the Company’s obligations to pay Executive any amount or provide Executive with any benefit or right pursuant to
Section 11 is subject to Executive’s compliance with Executive’s obligations under Sections 12 through 16 inclusive, and that in the event of a breach by Executive of any of Section 12, 13, 14, 15 or 16, the Company shall
immediately cease paying such benefits and Executive shall be obligated to immediately repay to the Company all amounts theretofore paid to Executive pursuant to Section 11. In addition, if not repaid, the Company shall have the right to set
off, in accordance with (and to the extent permitted by) Section 409A of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder, from any amounts otherwise due to Executive any amounts previously paid pursuant to Section 11(f) (other than the
Accrued Obligations). Executive further agrees that the foregoing is appropriate for any such breach inasmuch as actual damages cannot be readily calculated, the amount is fair and reasonable under the circumstances, and the Company would suffer
irreparable harm if any of these Sections were breached. All disputes not relating to any request or application for injunctive relief in accordance with this Section 17 shall be resolved by arbitration in accordance with Section 22(b).

 18. Assumption of Agreement. The Company shall require any Successor thereto, by agreement in form and substance
reasonably satisfactory to Executive, to expressly assume and agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent that the Company would be required to perform it if no such succession had taken place. Failure of the Company to
obtain such agreement prior to the effectiveness of any such succession shall be a breach of this Agreement. 
 19.
Indemnification. The Company agrees both during and after the Employment Period to indemnify Executive to the fullest extent permitted by its Certificate of Incorporation (including payment of expenses in advance of final disposition of a
proceeding) against actions or inactions of Executive during the Employment Period as an officer, director or employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates or as a fiduciary of any benefit plan of any of the foregoing. The Company
also agrees to provide Executive with directors and officers insurance coverage both during and, with regard to matters occurring during the Employment Period, after the Employment Period. Such coverage shall be at a level at least equal to the
level being maintained at such time for the then current officers and directors or, if then being maintained at a higher level with regard to any prior period activities for officers or directors during such prior period, such higher amount with
regard to Executive’s activities during such prior period.

 20. Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement among the
parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof. All prior correspondence and proposals (including but not limited to summaries of proposed terms) and all prior promises, representations, understandings, arrangements and agreements relating
to such subject matter (including but not limited to those made to or with Executive by any other Person and those contained in any prior employment, consulting or similar agreement entered into by Executive and the Company or any predecessor
thereto or Affiliate thereof) are merged herein and superseded hereby. 
 21. Survival. The following Sections shall
survive the termination of Executive’s employment with the Company and of this Agreement: 11(b), 11(f), 12, 13, 14, 16, 17, 19, 21 and 22. 
 22. Miscellaneous. 
 (a) Binding Effect; Assignment.
This Agreement shall be binding on and inure to the benefit of the Company and its Successors and permitted assigns. This Agreement shall also be binding on and inure to the benefit of Executive and his heirs, executors, administrators and legal
representatives. This Agreement shall not be assignable by any party hereto without the prior written consent of the other parties hereto, provided, however, that the Company may effect such an assignment without prior written approval of Executive
upon the transfer of all or substantially all of its business and/or assets (by whatever means), provided that the Successor to the Company shall expressly assume and agree to perform this Agreement in accordance with the provisions of
Section 18. 
 (b) Arbitration. The Company and Executive agree that any dispute or controversy
arising under or in connection with this Agreement shall be resolved by final and binding arbitration before the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”). The arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with AAA’s National Rules for
the Resolution of Employment Disputes then in effect at the time of the arbitration. The arbitration shall be held in Miami, Florida. The dispute shall be heard and determined by one arbitrator selected from a list of arbitrators who are members of
AAA’s Regional Employment Dispute Resolution roster. If the parties cannot agree upon a mutually acceptable arbitrator from the list, each party shall number the names in order of preference and return the list to AAA within ten (10) days
from the date of the list. A party may strike a name from the list only for good cause. The arbitrator receiving the highest ranking by the parties shall be selected. Depositions, if permitted by the arbitrator, shall be limited to a maximum of two
(2) per party and to a maximum of four (4) hours in duration. The arbitration shall not impair either party’s right to request injunctive or other equitable relief in accordance with Section 17 of this Agreement. 

(c) Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of
Florida without reference to principles of conflicts of laws. 

  
 14 









 (d) Taxes. The Company may withhold from any payments made under this
Agreement all applicable taxes, including but not limited to income, employment and social insurance taxes, as shall be required by law. 
 (e) Amendments. No provision of this Agreement may be modified, waived or discharged unless such modification, waiver or discharge is approved in writing by the Board or a Person authorized thereby
and is agreed to in writing by Executive. No waiver by any party hereto at any time of any breach by any other party hereto of, or compliance with, any condition or provision of this Agreement to be performed by such other party shall be deemed a
waiver of similar or dissimilar provisions or conditions at the same or at any prior or subsequent time. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement shall be implied from any course of dealing between or among the parties hereto or from any failure
by any party hereto to assert its rights hereunder on any occasion or series of occasions. 
 (f)
Severability. In the event that any one or more of the provisions of this Agreement shall be or become invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein
shall not be affected thereby. In the event that one or more terms or provisions of this Agreement are deemed invalid or unenforceable by the laws of Florida or any other state or jurisdiction in which it is to be enforced, by reason of being vague
or unreasonable as to duration or geographic scope of activities restricted, or for any other reason, the provision in question shall be immediately amended or reformed to the extent necessary to make it valid and enforceable by the court of such
jurisdiction charged with interpreting and/or enforcing such provision. Executive agrees and acknowledges that the provision in question, as so amended or reformed, shall be valid and enforceable as though the invalid or unenforceable portion had
never been included herein. 
 (g) Notices. Any notice or other communication required or permitted to be
delivered under this Agreement shall be (i) in writing, (ii) delivered personally, by courier service or by certified or registered mail, first-class postage prepaid and return receipt requested, (iii) deemed to have been received on
the date of delivery or, if mailed, on the third business day after the mailing thereof, and (iv) addressed as follows (or to such other address as the party entitled to notice shall hereafter designate in accordance with the terms hereof):

this Agreement comply with Section 409A of the Code and the regulations and guidance promulgated thereunder (except to the extent exempt as short-term deferrals or otherwise) and, accordingly, to the maximum extent permitted, this Agreement
shall be interpreted to be in compliance therewith. 
 (ii) It is intended that each installment, if any, of the

accelerate or defer the delivery of any such payments or benefits except to the extent specifically permitted or required by Section 409 of the Code. 
 (iii) All reimbursements and in-kind benefits provided under this Agreement (including without limitation, such reimbursements and in-kind benefits as set forth in Sections 4, 5, 10(a) and 11(f)(i)

pursuant hereto that are taxable income to Executive shall in no event be paid later than the end of the calendar year next following the calendar year in which Executive incurs such expense or pays such related tax. With regard to any provision
herein that provides for reimbursement of costs and expenses or in-kind benefits, except as permitted by Section 409A of the Code, (A) the right to reimbursement or in-kind benefits shall not be subject to liquidation or exchange for
another benefit and (B) the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits provided, during any taxable year shall not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits to be provided, in any other taxable year.

Executive is deemed on the date of termination to be a “specified employee” within the meaning of that term under Code Section 409A(a)(2)(B) them with regard to any payment or the provision of any benefit that is considered deferred
compensation under Code Section 409A payable on account of a “separation from service,” such payment or benefit shall not be made or provided until the date which is the earlier of (A) the expiration of the six (6)-month period

payments and benefits delayed pursuant to this Section 22(k)(iv) (whether they would have otherwise been payable in a single sum or in installments in the absence of such delay) shall be paid or reimbursed to the Employee in a lump sum, and any
remaining payments and benefits due under this Agreement shall be paid or provided in accordance with the normal payment dates specified for them herein.
