Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.

 

Item 4 is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

 

Letter Agreement with Krispy Kreme, Inc.

 

On March 14, 2022, JAB Indulgence and JAB Holdings (together, “JAB”) entered into a letter agreement (the “Letter Agreement”) with Krispy Kreme, Inc. (the “Company”). The Letter Agreement, among other things, (i) requires JAB to provide notice at least 30 days prior to an acquisition of voting rights, directly or indirectly, that would exceed 45% of the Company’s total outstanding voting stock, (ii) restricts Company directors who are JAB employees or designees from involvement in the consideration of such acquisition by the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”), (iii) permits JAB to enter into future cash-settled total return swap agreements provided that JAB must comply with the 30-day notice requirement before acquiring shares from or entering into a voting arrangement with the counterparty and that JAB does not try to influence the voting decisions of the counterparty. The terms of the Letter Agreement shall remain in effect for one year from the date of signing, subject to extension by JAB in its sole discretion.

 

The foregoing summary of the Letter Agreement does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the full text of the Letter Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 8 hereto, and incorporated by reference herein.

 

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer. 

 

Item 5 is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

 

(a) – (b)  JAB Indulgence beneficially owns 74,885,435 Shares, which represents 44.77% of the issued and outstanding Shares as of March 4, 2022, as set forth in the Annual Report on Form 10-K (the “Latest Periodic Report”), filed by the Company with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on March 11, 2022.

 

Each other Reporting Person may be deemed, for purposes of Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act, to share the power to vote or dispose, or to direct the voting or disposition of, the 74,885,435 Shares beneficially owned by JAB Indulgence. Therefore, for the purpose of Rule 13d-3, JAB Holdings, JAB Investments, JAB Holding Company, Joh. A. Benckiser, Agnaten and Lucresca may be deemed to be the beneficial owners of an aggregate of 74,885,435 Shares, which represents 44.77% of the issued and outstanding Shares as of March 4, 2022, as set forth in the Latest Periodic Report.

 

 

 

 

As of the date hereof, Olivier Goudet may be deemed to be the beneficial owner of an aggregate of 2,119,590 Shares, 20,902 Shares of which are owned by Mr. Goudet’s spouse, which represents approximately 1.3% of the issued and outstanding Shares as of March 4, 2022, as set forth in the Latest Periodic Report. Mr. Goudet has the sole power to vote or dispose, or direct the voting or disposition of, 2,098,688 Shares. Mr. Goudet disclaims beneficial ownership of the Shares owned by his spouse.

 

As of the date hereof, Peter Harf may be deemed to be the beneficial owner of 1,619,767 Shares, which represents approximately 1.0% of the issued and outstanding Shares as of March 4, 2022, as set forth in the Latest Periodic Report.

Except as set forth in this Item 5(a), none of the Reporting Persons, and, to the best knowledge of the Reporting Persons, none of the persons named in Schedule A hereto beneficially owns any Shares.  Neither the filing of this Schedule 13D nor any of its contents shall be deemed to constitute an admission by the Reporting Persons that it is the beneficial owner of any Shares.
