<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left; text-indent: 24.5pt">On June 21, 2012, Chanticleer
Holdings, Inc. (&ldquo;Chanticleer&rdquo;) or (&ldquo;Company&rdquo;) entered into an Underwriting Agreement (the &ldquo;Underwriting
Agreement&rdquo;) with Merriman Capital, Inc. and Dawson James Securities, Inc. (the &ldquo;Underwriters&rdquo;), for a firm commitment
underwritten public offering of 2,444,450 units (&ldquo;Units&rdquo;) each Unit consisting of one share of common stock and one
redeemable warrant (the &ldquo;Offering&rdquo;). All of the Units are being sold by the Company. The offering price to the public
is $4.50 per Unit and each warrant entitles its holder to purchase one share of common stock at an exercise price of $5.00. The
warrants are exercisable at any time after they become separately quotable and until their expiration on June 21, 2017. Initially
the common stock and the warrant will only be quoted as part of the Unit for a minimum of thirty days unless the representative
of the Underwriter determines an earlier date is acceptable. No later than the 45th day following June 21, 2012, the common stock
and the warrants will be quoted separately and the Units will no longer be quoted.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left; text-indent: 24.5pt">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left; text-indent: 24.5pt">Under the terms of the
Underwriting Agreement, the Company has granted the Underwriters an option, exercisable for 45 days, to purchase up to an additional
366,667 Units to cover overallotments, if any, at the same price per unit as the Units.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left; text-indent: 24.5pt">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left; text-indent: 24.5pt">The Underwriters have
agreed to purchase the Units from the Company pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement at a price of $4.23 per share, which is a 6%
discount to the public offering price. The Underwriting Agreement also provides that the Underwriters will be paid a non-accountable
expense allowance equal to 2% of the gross proceeds from the sale of the Units, excluding any Units purchased on exercise of the
over-allotment option.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left; text-indent: 24.5pt">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left; text-indent: 24.5pt">In connection with
the Underwriting Agreement, the Company&rsquo;s directors and officers agreed not to offer, sell, agree to sell, directly or
indirectly, or otherwise dispose of any shares of the Company&rsquo;s common stock or any securities convertible into or
exchangeable for shares of common stock except for the shares of common stock offered in the offering without the prior
written consent of the Underwriters for a period of 180 days after the date of the Underwriting Agreement. The Company also
agreed that for a period of ninety days after the date of the Underwriting Agreement, it will not issue any additional equity
securities without the prior consent of the Underwriters, subject to certain exceptions as specified in the Underwriting
Agreement.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left; text-indent: 24.5pt">Under the terms of the
Underwriting Agreement, the Company also granted to the Underwriters a 12 month right of first refusal to purchase for their account
or to sell for the Company&rsquo;s account, or any subsidiary or successor of the Company, any of the Company&rsquo;s securities
or any such subsidiary or successor&rsquo;s securities which the Company or any subsidiary or successor may seek to sell in public
or private offerings, whether with or without or through an underwriter, placement agent or broker-dealer. The Underwriters agreed
that they will not purchase for their own accounts any securities from the Company or any subsidiary or successor for the 90-day
period beginning on the effective date of the registration statement.</P>

Company closed the Offering of Units and received net cash proceeds from the Offering of approximately $7.2 million, plus the cancellation
of outstanding Company indebtedness and payment of other Company obligations in the aggregate amount of approximately $2.9 million,
which was converted into 643,076 Units, resulting in total net proceeds of approximately $10.1 million.</P>

Item 1.01
Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement
On June 21, 2012, Chanticleer
Holdings, Inc. ("Chanticleer") or ("Company") entered into an Underwriting Agreement (the "Underwriting
Agreement") with Merriman Capital, Inc. and Dawson James Securities, Inc. (the "Underwriters"), for a firm commitment
underwritten public offering of 2,444,450 units ("Units") each Unit consisting of one share of common stock and one
redeemable warrant (the "Offering"). All of the Units are being sold by the Company. The offering price to the public
is $4.50 per Unit and each warrant entitles its holder to purchase one share of common stock at an exercise price of $5.00. The
warrants are exercisable at any time after they become separately quotable and until their expiration on June 21, 2017. Initially
the common stock and the warrant will only be quoted as part of the Unit for a minimum of thirty days unless the representative
of the Underwriter determines an earlier date is acceptable. No later than the 45th day following June 21, 2012, the common stock
and the warrants will be quoted separately and the Units will no longer be quoted.
Under the terms of the
Underwriting Agreement, the Company has granted the Underwriters an option, exercisable for 45 days, to purchase up to an additional
366,667 Units to cover overallotments, if any, at the same price per unit as the Units.
The Underwriters have
agreed to purchase the Units from the Company pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement at a price of $4.23 per share, which is a 6%
discount to the public offering price. The Underwriting Agreement also provides that the Underwriters will be paid a non-accountable
expense allowance equal to 2% of the gross proceeds from the sale of the Units, excluding any Units purchased on exercise of the
over-allotment option.
In connection with
the Underwriting Agreement, the Company's directors and officers agreed not to offer, sell, agree to sell, directly or
indirectly, or otherwise dispose of any shares of the Company's common stock or any securities convertible into or
exchangeable for shares of common stock except for the shares of common stock offered in the offering without the prior
written consent of the Underwriters for a period of 180 days after the date of the Underwriting Agreement. The Company also
agreed that for a period of ninety days after the date of the Underwriting Agreement, it will not issue any additional equity
securities without the prior consent of the Underwriters, subject to certain exceptions as specified in the Underwriting
Agreement.
Under the terms of the
Underwriting Agreement, the Company also granted to the Underwriters a 12 month right of first refusal to purchase for their account
or to sell for the Company's account, or any subsidiary or successor of the Company, any of the Company's securities
or any such subsidiary or successor's securities which the Company or any subsidiary or successor may seek to sell in public
or private offerings, whether with or without or through an underwriter, placement agent or broker-dealer. The Underwriters agreed
that they will not purchase for their own accounts any securities from the Company or any subsidiary or successor for the 90-day
period beginning on the effective date of the registration statement.
On June 26, 2012, the
Company closed the Offering of Units and received net cash proceeds from the Offering of approximately $7.2 million, plus the cancellation
of outstanding Company indebtedness and payment of other Company obligations in the aggregate amount of approximately $2.9 million,
which was converted into 643,076 Units, resulting in total net proceeds of approximately $10.1 million.
The
above description of the Underwriting Agreement,  the Units and the warrants are qualified in their entirety by reference to
the Underwriting Agreement, the Unit Agency Agreement and the Warrant Agency Agreement, which are filed as Exhibits 1.1, 4.4
and 4.5, respectively, to this current report on form 8-K and are incorporated herein by reference.
