      Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.

     On October 19, 2010, Burger King Worldwide consummated the acquisition of the Issuer through the merger of Blue Acquisition Sub, Inc. (“Merger Sub”), a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Burger King Worldwide, with and into the Issuer.

     The aggregate purchase price paid for the acquisition of the Issuer was approximately $4.3 million, including the repayment of the Issuer’s existing debt facilities and fees and expenses. The source of such funds was proceeds from (i) the draw down of two term loans in an aggregate principal amount of $1,510.0 million and €250.0 million, respectively, under a senior secured term loan facility with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent, Barclays Capital, as syndication agent, and the lenders party thereto; (ii) proceeds from the sale of $800,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 9.875% senior notes due 2018 to J.P.

     A copy of the purchase agreement relating to the 9.875% senior notes due 2018 is attached as Exhibit 3 hereto and is incorporated by reference herein.

     A copy of the guarantee and collateral agreement entered into in connection with the credit agreement is attached as Exhibit 4 hereto and is incorporated by reference herein.

      Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.

     On September 2, 2010, the Issuer entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Burger King Worldwide (f/k/a Blue Acquisition Holding Corporation) and Merger Sub. The Merger was consummated in accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement. The intent of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement was for 3G Special Situations Fund II and Burger King Worldwide (f/k/a Blue Acquisition Holding Corporation) to acquire control of 100% of the Issuer.

     Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, upon the terms and subject to the conditions thereof, Merger Sub commenced a tender offer (the “Offer”) on September 16, 2010 to acquire all of the outstanding Shares at a purchase price of $24.00 per share, net to the holder in cash (the “Offer Price”), upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase, dated September 16, 2010, and the related Letter of Transmittal, each as amended or supplemented from time to time.

     On October 15, 2010, Burger King Worldwide announced the completion of the Offer. The initial offering period of the Offer expired at midnight, New York City time, on October 14, 2010. According to BNY Mellon, the depositary for the Offer, 128,192,385.1523 Shares were validly tendered and not properly withdrawn (including 7,047,235.9946 Shares tendered pursuant to notices of guaranteed delivery), which represented approximately 93.8% of the outstanding Shares. Merger Sub accepted for payment all Shares that were validly tendered and not withdrawn, and payment for such Shares has been made, in accordance with the terms of the Offer. Immediately following payment for the Shares tendered into the Offer, the Merger was consummated and the Issuer became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Burger

CUSIP No.		121208201	13D	Page		9		of		11	Pages

King Worldwide. In the Merger, each share of the capital stock of Merger Sub was converted into the one share of the Issuer. Consequently, following the consummation of the Merger, there were 100,000 Shares outstanding, 100% of which were owned by Burger King Worldwide.

     In connection with the closing of the Merger, on October 19, 2010, each Share (other than Shares owned by Burger King Worldwide or Merger Sub or by stockholders who validly exercise their appraisal rights under Delaware law) was cancelled and automatically converted into the right to receive $24.00 per Share in cash, without interest, and the Issuer requested that the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) file with the Securities and Exchange Commission a Notification of Removal from Listing and/or Registration Under Section 12(b) on Form 25 to delist and deregister the Company Common Stock under Section 12(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Trading of the Shares on the NYSE was suspended as of the opening of trading on October 20, 2010.

     Item 3 is incorporated by reference into this Item 4.

     A copy of the Merger Agreement is attached as Exhibit 5 hereto and is incorporated by reference herein.

     Except as set forth in this Schedule 13D and in connection with the Merger described above, the Reporting Persons have no plan or proposals that relate to or would result in any of the transactions described in subparagraphs (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D.
