CALCULATION OF FILING FEE
Transaction Valuation* | Amount of Filing Fee** | |
$193,312,450 | $17,920 | |
* | Calculated solely for purposes of determining the filing fee. The transaction value was calculated by adding (a) 10,760,055 shares of issued and outstanding common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Shares”), of BBQ Holdings, Inc., a Minnesota corporation (“BBQ Holdings”), multiplied by the offer price of $17.25 per Share, (b) 321,490 Shares issuable pursuant to outstanding options to acquire Shares from BBQ Holdings with an exercise price less than the offer price of $17.25 per share, multiplied by $10.13, which is the offer price of $17.25 per Share less the weighted- average exercise price for such options of $7.12 per Share, and (c) 257,670 Shares issuable pursuant to outstanding time-based and performance- based restricted stock units multiplied by the offer price of $17.25 per Share. The calculation of the filing fee is based on information provided by BBQ Holdings as of August 8, 2022. |
** | The filing fee was calculated in accordance with Rule 0-11 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Fee Rate Advisory No. 1 for fiscal year 2022, issued August 23, 2021, by multiplying the transaction value by 0.0000927. |

This Amendment No. 3 (this “Amendment”) amends and supplements the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO (as amended and together with any subsequent amendments, modifications and supplements thereto, the “Schedule TO”), filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 24, 2022, by Grill Merger Sub, Inc. (“Purchaser”), a Minnesota corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of MTY Franchising USA, Inc. (“MTY”), a Tennessee corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of MTY Food Group Inc. (“Parent”). The Schedule TO relates to the tender offer by Purchaser for any and all of the outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Shares”), of BBQ Holdings, Inc. (“BBQ Holdings”), at a price of $17.25 per Share, without interest, net to the seller in cash, and subject to any required withholding of taxes, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase, dated August 24, 2022, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit (a)(1)(A), and in the related letter of transmittal (the “Letter of Transmittal”, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit (a)(1)(B), and which, together with the Offer to Purchase and other related materials, as each may be amended, modified or supplemented from time to time, constitutes the “Offer”).
This Amendment is being filed, in part, for the purpose of disclosing the following matters:
(a) On September 2, 2022, Jeffrey Crivello vested in certain equity awards including 61,667 Restricted Stock Units (the “RSUs”), entitling Mr. Crivello to be issued 61,667 shares of the Company’s Common Stock, which shares upon issuance to Mr. Crivello would be subject to a restriction on transfer pursuant to the Tender and Support Agreement, by and among MTY, Purchaser and each shareholder party thereto (the “Support Agreement”), thereby preventing Mr. Crivello from electing to have a portion of such shares withheld by the Company to cover any Tax withholdings associated with the vesting of such RSUs. As memorialized by a written consent and waiver (“Consent and Waiver”) in favor of Mr. Crivello, Purchaser and MTY consented to, and waived any applicable restrictions under the Support Agreement with respect to, Mr. Crivello forfeiting 24,790 shares of Common Stock otherwise issuable to Mr. Crivello in connection with the vesting of the RSUs in order to facilitate a net settlement of the RSUs in satisfaction of Mr. Crivello’s applicable withholding obligations to the Company as a result of the vesting of equity awards on September 2, 2022.
The information set forth in the Offer to Purchase, including Schedule I thereto, is incorporated by reference to the extent stated herein in response to Items 1 through 9 and Item 11 of the Schedule TO, and is supplemented by the information specifically provided in this Amendment.
Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined in this Amendment shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Offer to Purchase or in the Schedule TO.
