Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

As previously disclosed, on June 10, 2020, Grubhub Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Grubhub” or the “Company”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Initial Merger Agreement”) with Just Eat Takeaway.com N.V., a public company with limited liability (naamloze vennootschap) incorporated under the laws of the Netherlands (“Parent”), Checkers Merger Sub I, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”), and Checkers Merger Sub II, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub II” and together with Merger Sub, the “Merger Subs”), which was subsequently amended by that certain First Amendment to the Merger Agreement, by and among Parent, the Merger Subs and the Company, dated September 4, 2020 (the “First Amendment” and, together with the Initial Merger Agreement, the “Merger Agreement”). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub will be merged with and into the Company (the “Initial Merger”), with the Company continuing as the surviving company in the Merger (the “Initial Surviving Company”). Immediately thereafter, the Initial Surviving Company will merge with and into Merger Sub II (the “Subsequent Merger” and, together with the Initial Merger, the “Mergers”), with Merger Sub II continuing as the surviving company.

On March 12, 2021, the Company, Parent and the Merger Subs entered into that certain Second Amendment to the Merger Agreement (the “Second Amendment”). The Second Amendment provides that each American depositary share of Parent (“Parent ADS”) issued pursuant to the Merger Agreement will represent one-fifth of an ordinary share in the share capital of Parent with a nominal value of €0.04 per share (“Parent Ordinary Share”). The amendments effectuated by the Second Amendment do not affect the exchange ratio used to calculate the merger consideration to which the Company’s stockholders may be entitled under the Merger Agreement.

On and subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, as amended by the Second Amendment, at the effective time of the Initial Merger (the “First Effective Time”), each issued and outstanding share of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Company Common Stock”) (other than any shares of Company Common Stock owned by the Company and any shares of Company Common Stock owned by Parent, Merger Sub, Merger Sub II or any other direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Parent), will be converted into and become one validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable share of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of the Initial Surviving Company (the “Initial Surviving Company Stock”). Each such share of Initial Surviving Company Stock will immediately thereafter be automatically exchanged for 3.355 Parent ADSs, with each Parent ADS representing one-fifth of a Parent Ordinary Share.

In connection with the Mergers, each option that represents the right to acquire shares of Company Common Stock and that is outstanding immediately prior to the First Effective Time (the “Options”), whether or not then vested or exercisable, will at the First Effective Time be converted into an option (the “Assumed Options”) to purchase Parent ADSs (or, as determined by Parent, Parent Ordinary Shares) with respect to that number of Parent ADSs (or Parent Ordinary Shares), rounded down to the nearest number of whole Parent ADSs (or Parent Ordinary Shares), that is equal to the product of (a) the number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to such Option as of immediately prior to the First Effective Time and (b) (i) in the case of Assumed Options in respect of Parent ADSs, 3.355, and (ii) in the case of Assumed Options in respect of Parent Ordinary Shares, 0.6710. The exercise price per share of each Assumed Option will be equal to the exercise price per share of the corresponding Option divided by (A) in the case of Assumed Options in respect of Parent ADSs, 3.355, and (B) in the case of Assumed Options in respect of Parent Ordinary Shares, 0.6710, rounded up to the nearest whole cent. Following the First Effective Time, each Assumed Option shall be subject to such other terms and conditions as applied to the corresponding Option immediately prior to the First Effective Time. In addition, each restricted stock unit award with respect to shares of Company Common Stock that is outstanding immediately prior to the First Effective Time (the “Company RSUs”) will, at the First Effective Time, be converted into a restricted stock unit (each, an “Assumed RSU”) with respect to a number of Parent ADSs (or, as determined by Parent, Parent Ordinary Shares) equal to the number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to such Company RSU immediately prior to the First Effective Time multiplied by (1) in the case of Assumed RSUs in respect of Parent ADSs, 3.355 and (2) in the case of Assumed RSUs in respect of Parent Ordinary Shares, 0.6710 and rounded to the nearest number of whole Parent ADSs (or Parent Ordinary Shares), and otherwise will be subject to the same terms and conditions that applied to the corresponding Company RSU immediately prior to the First Effective Time.

Other than as expressly modified by the Second Amendment, the Initial Merger Agreement, which was filed as Exhibit 2.1 to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 12, 2020, as amended by the First Amendment, which was filed as Exhibit 2.1 to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission on September 4, 2020, remains in full force and effect. The foregoing description of the Second Amendment does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by reference to, the full text of the Second Amendment, which is attached as Exhibit 2.1 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.
