Exhibit A

NON-QUALIFIED STOCK OPTION AWARD AGREEMENT

 

 

WHEREAS, this Non-Qualified Stock Option Award Agreement, which is attached to the Non-Qualified Stock Option Grant Notice (the “Grant Notice” and this Non-Qualified Stock Option Award Agreement shall be referred to collectively as the “Agreement”), has been entered into effective on the Grant Date specified in the Grant Notice, by and between GrubHub Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”) and the Participant specified in the Grant Notice, pursuant to the GrubHub Inc. 2015 Long-Term Incentive Plan, as in effect and as amended from time to time (the “Plan”); and

 

WHEREAS, the Committee has determined that it would be in the best interests of the Company to grant to the Participant a Non‐Qualified Stock Option to purchase the number of shares of Common Stock indicated in the Grant Notice, subject to the vesting schedule set forth in the Grant Notice and all other terms and conditions set forth under the Plan and this Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and promises hereinafter set forth and for other good and valuable consideration, the parties hereto hereby mutually covenant and agree as follows:

1.Incorporation By Reference; Plan Document Receipt.  This Agreement is subject in all respects to the terms and provisions of the Plan (including, without limitation, any amendments thereto adopted at any time and from time to time unless such amendments are expressly intended not to apply to the Award provided hereunder), all of which terms and provisions are made a part of and incorporated into this Agreement as if they were each expressly set forth herein.  Any capitalized term not defined in this Agreement shall have the same meaning as is ascribed thereto in the Plan.  The Participant hereby acknowledges receipt of a true copy of the Plan and also acknowledges that the Participant has read the Plan carefully and fully understands its content.  In the event of any conflict between the terms of this Agreement and the terms of the Plan, the terms of the Plan shall control.  No part of the Option granted hereby is intended to qualify as an “incentive stock option” under Section 422 of the Code.

2.Grant of Option.  The Company hereby grants to the Participant, as of the Grant Date specified in the Grant Notice, a Non‐Qualified Stock Option (the “Option”) to acquire from the Company at the Per Share Exercise Price specified in the Grant Notice, the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock specified in the Grant Notice (the “Option Shares”).  Except as otherwise provided by the Plan, the Participant agrees and understands that nothing contained in this Agreement provides, or is intended to provide, the Participant with any protection against potential future dilution of the Participant’s interest in the Company for any reason.  The Participant shall have no rights as a stockholder with respect to any shares of Common Stock covered by the Option unless and until the Participant has become the holder of record of such shares, and no adjustments shall be made for dividends in cash or other property, distributions or other rights in respect of any such shares, except as otherwise specifically provided for in the Plan or this Agreement.

Exhibit A

3.Vesting and Exercise.

(a)Vesting.  Subject to the provisions of Sections 3(b) and 3(c) hereof, the Option shall vest and become exercisable as set forth in the Grant Notice, provided that the Participant has not incurred a Termination prior to each such vesting date.  There shall be no proportionate or partial vesting in the periods prior to each vesting date and all vesting shall occur only on the appropriate vesting date, subject to the Participant’s continued service with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries on each applicable vesting date.  Upon expiration of the Option pursuant to Section 3(d) hereof, the Option shall be cancelled and no longer exercisable.

(b)Committee Discretion to Accelerate Vesting.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, provide for accelerated vesting of the Option at any time and for any reason.

(c)Change in Control. If within the period beginning 45 days prior to and ending 12 months after the occurrence of a Change in Control, Participant’s employment is terminated by the Company without Cause, or Participant terminates his/her employment for Good Reason, then 100% of any then-unvested Options granted hereunder shall immediately accelerate and become fully vested and exercisable, and shall continue to be fully exercisable for no less than three months following the date of such termination, provided that in no event will the Participant be entitled to exercise such Option following the expiration date set forth in the Grant Notice. “Good Reason” shall mean that the Participant has complied with the Good Reason Process (hereinafter defined) following the occurrence of any one or more of the following events without the consent of the Participant: (i) a diminution in the Participant’s base salary of greater than ten percent (10%) (in all cases, other than in connection with a diminution in base salary that is proportionately applied to all senior executives of the Company); (ii) a change in the geographic location at which the Participant provides services to the Company by more than fifty (50) miles (provided that moving the Company’s corporate headquarters shall not constitute a change in geographic location, so long as the Participant continues to be able to provide services to the Company from a location not more than fifty (50) miles from Chicago or New York, as applicable); or (iii) a material diminution of the Participant’s title or reporting relationship.  “Good Reason Process” shall mean that (1) the Participant reasonably determines in good faith that a “Good Reason” condition has occurred; (2) the Participant notifies the Company in writing of the first occurrence of the Good Reason condition within thirty (30) days after the first occurrence of such condition; (3) the Participant cooperates in good faith with the Company’s efforts, for a period of thirty (30) days following such notice (the “Cure Period”) to remedy the condition; (4) the Good Reason condition continues to exist following the Cure Period; and (5) the Participant terminates employment with the Company within thirty (30) days after the end of the Cure Period. If the Company cures the Good Reason condition during the Cure Period, Good Reason will be deemed not to have occurred. 

(d)Expiration.  Unless earlier terminated in accordance with the terms and provisions of the Plan and/or this Agreement, all portions of the Option (whether vested or not vested) shall expire and shall no longer be exercisable on the expiration date set forth in the Grant Notice.

Exhibit A

4.Termination.  Subject to the terms of the Plan and this Agreement, the Option, to the extent vested at the time of the Participant’s Termination, shall remain exercisable as follows:

(a)Termination due to Death or Disability.  In the event of the Participant’s Termination by reason of death or Disability, the vested portion of the Option shall remain exercisable until the earlier of (i) one (1) year from the date of such Termination, and (ii) the expiration of the stated term of the Option pursuant to Section 3(d) hereof; provided, however, that in the case of a Termination due to Disability, if the Participant dies within such one (1) year exercise period, any unexercised Option held by the Participant shall thereafter be exercisable by the legal representative of the Participant’s estate, to the extent to which it was exercisable at the time of death, for a period of one (1) year from the date of death, but in no event beyond the expiration of the stated term of the Option pursuant to Section 3(d) hereof.

(b)Involuntary Termination Without Cause.  In the event of the Participant’s involuntary Termination by the Company without Cause or the Termination by the Participant for Good Reason in connection with a Change in Control, the vested portion of the Option shall remain exercisable until the earlier of (i) ninety (90) days from the date of such Termination, and (ii) the expiration of the stated term of the Option pursuant to Section 3(d) hereof.

(c)Voluntary Resignation.  In the event of the Participant’s voluntary Termination (other than a voluntary Termination described in Section 4(d) hereof), the vested portion of the Option shall remain exercisable until the earlier of (i) ninety (90) days from the date of such Termination, and (ii) the expiration of the stated term of the Option pursuant to Section 3(d) hereof.

(d)Termination for Cause.  In the event of the Participant’s Termination for Cause or in the event of the Participant’s voluntary Termination (as provided in Section 4(c) hereof) after an event that would be grounds for a Termination for Cause, the Participant’s entire Option (whether or not vested) shall terminate and expire upon such Termination.

(e)Treatment of Unvested Options upon Termination.  Any portion of the Option that is not vested as of the date of the Participant’s Termination for any reason shall terminate and expire as of the date of such Termination.

(f)Treatment of Unexercised Options.  Any portion of the vested Options that are not exercised within the time period specified in this Section shall terminate and expire.

Exhibit A

5.Method of Exercise and Payment.  Subject to Section 8 hereof, to the extent that the Option has become vested and exercisable with respect to a number of shares of Common Stock as provided herein, the Option may thereafter be exercised by the Participant, in whole or in part, at any time or from time to time prior to the expiration of the Option in such manner as may be provided via the Internet website maintained by the Company’s third-party Plan administrator, or as otherwise provided by the Committee, in each case, in accordance with Sections 6.3(c) and 6.3(d) of the Plan and conditioned upon the payment in full of the Per Share Exercise Price specified in the Grant Notice multiplied by the number of shares of Common Stock underlying the portion of the Option exercised.  The delivery of Option Shares upon the exercise of the Option, and all Option Shares so delivered, shall be subject to the restrictions and conditions set forth in the Plan.

6.Non-Transferability.  The Option issued under this Agreement and the Plan, and any rights and interests with respect thereto, shall not be sold, exchanged, transferred, assigned or otherwise disposed of in any way by the Participant (or any beneficiary of the Participant), other than by testamentary disposition by the Participant or the laws of descent and distribution.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, permit the Option to be Transferred to a Family Member for no value, provided that such Transfer shall only be valid upon execution of a written instrument in form and substance acceptable to the Committee in its sole discretion evidencing such Transfer and the transferee’s acceptance thereof, signed by the Participant and the transferee, and provided further that the Option may not be subsequently Transferred other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution or to another Family Member (as permitted by the Committee in its sole discretion) in accordance with the terms of the Plan and this Agreement, and shall in any event at all times remain subject to the terms of the Plan and this Agreement.  Any attempt to sell, exchange, transfer, assign, pledge, encumber or otherwise dispose of or hypothecate in any way the Option, or the levy of any execution, attachment or similar legal process upon the Option, contrary to the terms and provisions of this Agreement and/or the Plan shall be null and void and without legal force or effect.

7.Governing Law.  All questions concerning the construction, validity and interpretation of this Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to the choice of law principles thereof.

8.Withholding of Tax.  The Company shall have the power and the right to deduct or withhold, or require the Participant to remit to the Company, an amount sufficient to satisfy any federal, state, local and foreign taxes of any kind (including, but not limited to, the Participant’s FICA and SDI obligations) which the Company, in its sole discretion, deems necessary to be withheld or remitted to comply with the Code and/or any other applicable law, rule or regulation with respect to the Option and, if the Participant fails to do so, the Company may otherwise refuse to issue or transfer any shares of Common Stock otherwise required to be issued pursuant to this Agreement.  Any minimum statutorily required withholding obligation with regard to the Participant may be satisfied by reducing the amount of cash or shares of Common Stock otherwise deliverable upon exercise of the Option.

21.No Right to Damages.  No Participant shall have the right to bring a claim or to receive damages if such Participant is required to forfeit the Options granted hereunder, or the Option Shares, for any reason.
