Amazon will also receive warrants (exercisable at a formula-based price) over up to a further 13% of Grubhub’s fully-diluted common equity, the vesting of which is subject to the satisfaction of certain performance conditions, principally the number of new consumers delivered through the commercial agreement. In certain circumstances the warrants can vest on an accelerated basis, in full or in part. Vested warrants may, in certain scenarios, be settled in cash or Company shares.

Any further announcements will be made as and when appropriate.
