Sterling Bay bought Oprah Winfrey's former Harpo Studios campus for more than $30 million in 2014.

"We're not going to speculate and when we have information to share, it will be with our employees first," McDonald's said in an e-mail.

Sterling Bay did not immediately respond to a request for comment outside regular business hours. (Reporting by Arathy S Nair in Bengaluru; Editing by Sandra Maler)
