Item 1.

Security and Issuer

This statement constitutes Amendment Number 1 to the Schedule 13D relating to the common stock, no par value (the “Common Stock”), of BJ’s Restaurants, Inc., a California corporation (the “Issuer”) and hereby amends the Schedule 13D filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 15, 2020 (the “Schedule 13D”) on behalf of the Reporting Persons to furnish the additional information set forth herein. All capitalized terms contained herein but not otherwise defined shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Schedule 13D.

 

Item 2.

Identity and Background.

Item 2 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended to include a revised Annex A, which shall replace in its entirety the Annex A attached to the original Schedule 13D.

 

Item 4.

Purpose of Transaction.

The information set forth in Item 6 hereto is incorporated by reference into this Item 4.

 

Item 6.

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

Item 6 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended to delete the section entitled “Investor Rights Agreement” and replace such section with the following:

Amended and Restated Investor Rights Agreement

Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, on May 5, 2020, the Issuer and SC LLC entered into an Investor Rights Agreement (the “Original IRA”), to which BJ’s LLC executed a joinder on May 15,2020. Effective November 24, 2020, the Issuer, SC LLC and BJ’s LLC entered into an Amended and Restated Investor Rights Agreement (the “Amended IRA”) which revised certain terms of the Original IRA. Pursuant to the Amended IRA, SC LLC, BJ’s LLC and any transferees of the Securities (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) who agree to become parties to the Amended IRA (together, the “Investors”) have certain rights and obligations, including the following:

Board Observer. The Investors have the right to designate one person (the “Observer”) to serve as an observer at meetings of the Board of Directors of the Issuer (the “Board”) and at meetings of the Governance and Nominating Committee of the Board (the “Nominating Committee”). The Observer is required to meet certain expertise and independence criteria and be reasonably acceptable to the Nominating Committee in order to serve as an observer to the Board and the Nominating Committee. The Investors shall not have the right to designate an Observer to the Board or the Nominating Committee during any period in which Keith Pascal or any replacement suggested by the Investors (a “Suggested Nominee” and, together with Mr. Pascal, an “Investor Approved Board Member”) is serving as a member of the Board or the Nominating Committee, respectively. The Nominating Committee shall have no obligation to nominate or appoint any Investor Approved Board Member to the Board. The Investors shall retain the right to designate the Observer, subject to the limitations outlined above, for so long as the Investors collectively own the lesser of 4.25% of the then outstanding Common Stock or rights convertible or exercisable into Common Stock, including the Warrant, (on an as-converted or exercised basis) or 187,500 shares of Common Stock (the “Ownership Threshold”).

Standstill. Until the later of three years following the date of the Original IRA, or at such time as the Investors no longer meet the Ownership Threshold, subject to certain customary exceptions, the Investors are prohibited from, among other things, (i) effecting a tender offer, merger or acquisition of the Issuer, (ii) soliciting proxies or seeking a director/management change in the Issuer, and (iii) acquiring securities, assets or indebtedness of the Issuer in connection with any of the actions described in the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii) above (collectively, the “Standstill Provisions”); provided, however that if an Investor Approved Board Member is no longer serving as a member of the Board for reasons other than such person’s voluntary resignation, incapacity or death (and no Suggested Nominee is selected as an Investor Approved Board Member following such resignation, incapacity or death), the Standstill Provisions shall terminate on the earlier of three years following the Original IRA or at such time as the Investors no longer meet the Ownership Threshold.

Preemptive Rights. If, after the date of the Original IRA, until such time as the Investors no longer meet the Ownership Threshold, the Issuer intends to issue new equity securities for cash to any person, then the Investors have the right to participate in such equity offering, subject to exceptions with respect to certain excluded securities and issuances.


Access to Information. For so long as the Investors meet the Ownership Threshold and subject to certain confidentiality obligations, the Investors shall have customary information rights under the Amended IRA, including the right to review Issuer records and have reasonable access to the Issuer’s facilities, books and records, and personnel.

Item 6 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended to add the following:

Amendment No. 1 to the Warrant

Effective November 24, 2020, BJ’s Act III and the Issuer entered into Amendment No. 1 to the Warrant (the “Warrant Amendment”) pursuant to which the Warrant was amended to provide that the anti-dilution adjustments for below market issuances may not result in a Warrant exercise price below $20.00 per share. All other terms of the Warrant remained unchanged.

The foregoing descriptions of the Amended IRA and the Warrant Amendment do not purport to be complete and are subject to, and qualified in their entirety by, the full text of the Amended IRA and the Warrant Amendment which are filed as Exhibit 99.2 and Exhibit 99.3, respectively, hereto and which are incorporated herein by reference.

 

Item 7.

Material to be Filed as Exhibits.

 

Exhibit 99.1    Joint Filing Agreement, dated November 30, 2020, among the Reporting Persons.
Exhibit 99.2    Amended and Restated Investor Rights Agreement, dated November 24, 2020, by and among BJ’s Restaurants, Inc., SC 2018 Trust LLC and BJ’s Act III, LLC.
