F1These shares (the "Shares") of common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the "Common Stock"), of Krispy Kreme, Inc. (the "Company") are held and beneficially owned by JAB Indulgence B.V., a direct or indirect subsidiary of each Reporting Person herein. As such, each Reporting Person herein may be deemed a beneficial owner of Shares held by JAB Indulgence B.V. Each such Reporting Person disclaims beneficial ownership of such Shares, except to the extent of its pecuniary interests therein.
F2As previously disclosed, JAB Holdings B.V. entered into a long cash-settled total return equity swap on August 11, 2023 (the "Long Swap") with HSBC Continental Europe (the "Dealer") providing for the establishment of long exposure with respect to a notional amount of up to the number of Shares purchased by the Dealer with an aggregate initial price not to exceed $100,000,000 (the "Subject Shares") that provide JAB Holdings B.V. with economic results that are comparable to the economic results of ownership of the Subject Shares. All balances will be exclusively cash settled.
F3On June 12, 2026, JAB Holdings B.V. and the Dealer agreed to extend the term of the Long Swap to August 10, 2028 for no additional consideration, although JAB Holdings B.V. has the right to terminate and close out the Long Swap during certain specified earlier periods if it so chooses. The extension resulted in a deemed cancellation of the existing Long Swap and a deemed entry into a new Long Swap with a later settlement date. The deemed cancellation is exempt from Sections 16(a) and 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, pursuant to Rules 16a-4(d) and 16b-6(d) promulgated thereunder, respectively. JAB Holdings B.V.'s exposure with respect to the Subject Shares remains unchanged, and the Long Swap remains in full force and effect.
F4The Long Swap (but not the Subject Shares referenced thereby) is owned by JAB Holdings B.V., a direct or indirect subsidiary of each other Reporting Person herein. The Long Swap does not give JAB Holdings B.V. 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. Each Reporting Person disclaims beneficial ownership of the securities reported herein, including the Subject Shares, except to the extent of its pecuniary interest therein, and this Form 4 shall not be deemed to be an admission that such Reporting Person is the beneficial owner of such securities for purposes of Section 16 or for any other purpose.
