Except as set forth herein, all items remain as previously reported in the Schedule 13D.

 

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.

 

Item 4 is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

 

Long Swap Arrangement

 

On November 22, 2023, JAB Holdings entered into a long cash-settled total return equity swap (the “Long Swap”) with HSBC Continental Europe (the “Dealer”). The Long Swap provides for the establishment of long exposure with respect to a notional amount of shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”) (the shares of Common Stock, each a “Share” and, collectively, the “Shares”), of Krispy Kreme, Inc. (the “Company”) up to the number of Shares purchased by the Dealer with an aggregate initial price not to exceed $100,000,000 (and not to exceed 7,500,000 Shares), over a term of approximately three years. The timing and amount of the establishment of specific Long Swap positions will be determined based on the initial hedges put in place by the Dealer in accordance with certain parameters of the Long Swap. As of the date hereof, excluding the Long Swaps described in Amendment No. 9 (which position has not yet been fully established) and this Amendment No. 10, JAB Holdings has long swap exposure with respect to a notional amount of 23,395,120 Shares.

 

Under the terms of the Long Swap (i) the Dealer will be obligated to pay in cash to JAB Holdings any positive price performance in the Common Stock from the reference price of Common Stock upon the establishment of the applicable Long Swap position (the “Applicable Reference Price”) with respect to the applicable notional amount of Shares and (ii) JAB Holdings will be obligated to pay in cash to the Dealer any negative price performance in the Common Stock from the Applicable Reference Price with respect to the applicable notional amount of Shares. Any cash dividends received by the Dealer on the notional number of Shares subject to a Long Swap position during the term thereof will be paid to JAB Holdings.

 

Under the terms of the Long Swap, all balances are to be exclusively settled in cash. The Long Swap has a term of approximately three years, although JAB Holdings has the right to terminate and close out the Long Swap during certain specified earlier periods if it so chooses. The Long Swap does not give JAB Holdings direct or indirect voting, investment or dispositive control over any securities of the Company or require the Dealer to acquire, hold, vote or dispose of any securities of the Company. Accordingly, JAB Holdings disclaims any beneficial ownership in securities that may be referenced in the Long Swap.

 

 

 

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 44.42% of the issued and outstanding Shares as of November 6, 2023, as set forth in the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (the “Latest Disclosure”), filed by the Company with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on November 13, 2023.

 

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 44.42% of the issued and outstanding Shares as of November 6, 2023, as set forth in the Latest Disclosure.

 

As of the date hereof, Olivier Goudet may be deemed to be the beneficial owner of an aggregate of 2,087,812 Shares, which represents approximately 1.2% of the issued and outstanding Shares as of November 6, 2023, as set forth in the Latest Disclosure.

 

As of the date hereof, Peter Harf may be deemed to be the beneficial owner of 1,657,333 Shares, which represents approximately 1.0% of the issued and outstanding Shares as of November 6, 2023, as set forth in the Latest Disclosure.

 

As of the date hereof, Joachim Creus beneficially owns 41,186 Shares, which represents less than 0.1% of the issued and outstanding Shares as of November 6, 2023, as set forth in the Latest Disclosure.

 

As of the date hereof, Frank Engelen beneficially owns 19,846 Shares, which represents less than 0.1% of the issued and outstanding Shares as of November 6, 2023, as set forth in the Latest Disclosure.

 

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.

 

(c) None of the Reporting Persons, and to the best knowledge of the Reporting Persons, none of the persons named in Schedule A hereto, has effected any transactions in the Shares during the past 60 days.

 

(d) None of the Reporting Persons and, to the best knowledge of the Reporting Persons, none of the persons named in Schedule A hereto or any other person, and no other person, has the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, the securities of the Company reported herein.

 

(e) Not applicable.

 

Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer.

 

As described in Item 4 above, JAB Holdings entered into the Long Swap.
