Item 1.01.Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

On October 10, 2017, Grubhub Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), as guarantor, and Grubhub Holdings Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“Grubhub Holdings”), as borrower, entered into a Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”), with Citibank, N.A., as administrative agent, and Citibank, N.A., BMO Capital Markets Corp and Merrill Lynch, Pierce Fenner & Smith Incorporated, as joint lead arrangers and joint bookrunners, and the other lenders party thereto.

The Credit Agreement provides, among other things, for (a) revolving loans in an aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding not to exceed $225,000,000, subject to an increase of up to an additional $150,000,000 pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement, (b) term loans in an aggregate principal amount of $125,000,000, (c) issuances of letters of credit in a maximum aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding not to exceed $20,000,000 and (d) swing line loans in an aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding not to exceed $20,000,000. In addition, Grubhub Holdings may incur up to $150,000,000 of incremental revolving loans or incremental revolving term loans pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement.  The credit facility will be available to Grubhub Holdings until October 10, 2022. Grubhub Holdings intends to use the term loans to refinance its existing credit facility and to finance the purchase price and transaction costs in connection with the acquisition of Eat24, LLC.

Under the Credit Agreement, the loans bear interest, at Grubhub Holdings’ option, based on LIBOR or an alternate base rate, plus a margin, which in the case of LIBOR loans is between 1.25% and 2.00% and in the case of alternate base rate loans is between 0.25% and 1.00%, and in each case, is based upon the Company’s and its subsidiaries’ consolidated total net leverage ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement).  Grubhub Holdings is required to pay a commitment fee on the undrawn portion available under the revolving loan facility of between 0.20% and 0.30% per annum, based upon the Company’s and its subsidiaries’ consolidated total net leverage ratio.

Grubhub Holdings’ obligations under the Credit Agreement are guaranteed by the Company and its domestic subsidiaries, subject to certain exceptions set forth in the Credit Agreement. The obligations under the Credit Agreement and the guarantees are secured by a lien on substantially all of the tangible and intangible property of the Company and the domestic subsidiaries that are guarantors, and by a pledge of all of the equity interests of the Company’s domestic subsidiaries, subject to certain exceptions set forth in the Credit Agreement.

The Credit Agreement contains customary covenants that, among other things, require the Company to satisfy certain financial covenants and restrict the Company’s and its subsidiaries’ ability to incur additional debt, pay dividends and make distributions, make certain investments and acquisitions, create liens, transfer and sell material assets and merge or consolidate. Non-compliance with one or more of the covenants and restrictions could result in any amounts outstanding under the Credit Agreement becoming immediately due and payable and in the termination of the commitments.

The banks that are party to the Credit Agreement and/or their affiliates have from time to time provided, and/or may in the future provide, various financial advisory, commercial banking, investment banking and other services to the Company and its affiliates, for which they receive or may receive customary compensation and expense reimbursement.

The foregoing description of the Credit Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the Credit Agreement, a copy of which is filed herewith as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated herein by reference.

Item 2.01. Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets

On October 10, 2017, pursuant to the Unit Purchase Agreement, dated as of August 3, 2017 (the “Purchase Agreement”), by and among the Company, Grubhub Holdings, Yelp Inc. (“Seller”), and Eat24, LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Seller (“Eat24”), Grubhub Holdings completed its previously announced acquisition of all of the issued and outstanding equity interests of Eat24 from Seller (the “Acquisition”).  

At the closing of the Acquisition, Grubhub Holdings paid approximately $280.4 million to Seller in cash. Of such amount, $28.75 million will be held in escrow for an 18-month period after closing to secure Grubhub Holdings’ indemnification rights under the Purchase Agreement.

Immediately prior to the closing of the Acquisition, Seller also transferred to Eat24 certain assets of Seller, which consisted of assets that were not then owned by Eat24 that are material to the operation of, or necessary to operate, the online and mobile food ordering service business conducted by Seller and Eat24 (the “Business”). After the closing of the Acquisition, Seller will continue to own and run all of its business operations that are not related to the Business.

The foregoing description of the Purchase Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the Purchase Agreement, a copy of which was filed as Exhibit 10.1 to the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on August 8, 2017 and is incorporated herein by reference.
