Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Executive may serve on other boards of directors, with the approval of the Board, or engage in religious, charitable or other community activities as long as such services and activities are disclosed to the Board and do not materially interfere with the Executive’s performance of his duties to the Company as provided in this Agreement.

2. Compensation and Related Matters.

(a) Base Salary. During the Term, the Executive’s initial annual base salary shall be $265,000. The Executive’s base salary shall be subject to annual review by the Compensation Committee of the Board (the “Compensation Committee”). The annual base salary in effect at any given time is referred to herein as “Base Salary.” The Base Salary shall be payable in accordance with the Company’s usual payroll practices.

(b) Incentive Compensation. During the Term, the Executive shall be eligible to participate in any cash incentive compensation plan to the same extent as other senior executives of the Company as determined by the Compensation Committee from time to time.

(g) Amendment of Terms of Option Award Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other agreement between the Executive and the Company and/or Thin Crust, the Company hereby agrees to amend the terms of the Nonstatutory Stock Option Agreement between the Company and the Executive, dated January 28, 2013 (“Deep Dish IPO Option Agreement”), or cause the terms of any awards granted to the Executive to substitute for the Deep Dish IPO Option (defined below) in connection with the Transaction to provide that, if the Executive’s employment with the Company terminates prior to the Last Exercise Date (as defined below) for any reason other than due to a termination (x) by the Company for Cause (as defined below) at any time or (y) by the Executive without Good Reason (as defined below) during the period beginning on the date on which the Closing occurs and ending on the twelve (12)-month anniversary of the date on which the Closing occurs, then the Executive’s stock option to purchase 100,000 shares of Company common stock (the “Deep Dish IPO Option”) shall remain

outstanding and eligible to vest and become exercisable until the earlier of (A) the original expiration date of the Deep Dish IPO Option Agreement and (B) the seven (7)-month anniversary of the date of a Qualified Public Offering (as defined in the Deep Dish IPO Option Agreement) (the earlier of such dates, the “Last Exercise Date”).

(h) Six-Month Acceleration. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other agreement between the Executive and the Company, as of the six (6)-month anniversary of the date on which the Closing occurs (the “Acceleration Date”), that number of shares of common stock of the Company (“Common Stock”) that represents 25% of all unvested Common Stock subject to the Executive’s Pre-Closing Options (as defined below) and the Executive’s Restricted Stock Agreement (as defined below) that would have otherwise been unvested or subject to repurchase restrictions, as applicable, as of the one (1)-year anniversary of the Closing, shall fully vest or no longer be subject to the repurchase restrictions on such Common Stock, as applicable. Any such accelerated vesting that occurs in connection with the preceding sentence (the “Six Month Acceleration”) will be applied pro-rata with respect to each Pre-Closing Option and to any shares of Common Stock subject to the Executive’s Restricted Stock Agreement; provided, that if the Executive provides the Chief Executive Officer of the Company with a written request to accelerate the vesting of the shares of Common Stock subject to the Executive’s Restricted Stock Agreement in a disproportionate manner, then the Company, in consultation with the Executive, shall provide a good faith formula to determine and make any appropriate adjustments to the remaining vesting acceleration of any Pre-Closing Options and any such shares of Common Stock subject to the Executive’s Restricted Stock Agreement to prevent the enlargement of the benefits intended by this provision. For purposes hereof, “Pre-Closing Options” means the Executive’s options to purchase Common Stock that were outstanding as of immediately prior to the Closing, including the Executive’s options to purchase Common Stock under the four Grubhub, Inc. Nonstatutory Stock Option Agreements, each by and between the Executive and the Company, and dated April 23, 2012, July 26, 2012, November 16, 2012 and January 28, 2013, and “Restricted Stock Agreement” means that Employee Restricted Stock Purchase Agreement, by and between the Executive and the Company, dated November 3, 2010. For the avoidance of doubt, “Pre-Closing Options” will include all Deep Dish Substituted Options, as such term is defined in the Contribution Agreement.

(d) Termination Without Cause. The Company may terminate the Executive’s employment hereunder at any time without Cause. Any termination by the Company of the Executive’s employment under this Agreement which does not constitute a termination for Cause under Section 3(c) and does not result from the death or disability of the Executive under Sections 3(a) or (b) shall be deemed a termination without Cause.

(e) Termination by the Executive. The Executive may terminate his employment hereunder at any time for any reason, with or without Good Reason.

(f) Notice of Termination. Except for a termination due to the Executive’s death as specified in Section 3(a), any termination of the Executive’s employment by the Company or any such termination by the Executive shall be communicated by a written Notice of Termination to the other party hereto.

(a) Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, if at the time of the Executive’s “separation from service” (within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code), the Company determines that the Executive is a “specified employee” (within the meaning of Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code), then to the extent any payment or benefit that the Executive becomes entitled to under this Agreement due to the Executive’s separation from service would be considered deferred compensation otherwise subject to the twenty percent (20%) additional tax imposed pursuant to Section 409A(a) of the Code as a result of the application of Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code, then such payment or benefit shall not be payable or provided, as applicable, until the date that is the earlier of (A) six (6) months and one (1) day after the Executive’s separation from service, or (B) the Executive’s death. If any such delayed cash payment is otherwise payable on an installment basis, the first payment shall include a catch-up payment covering amounts that would otherwise have been paid during the six (6)-month period but for the application of this provision, and the balance of the installments shall be payable in accordance with their original schedule.

(b) All in-kind benefits provided and expenses eligible for reimbursement under this Agreement shall be provided by the Company or incurred by the Executive during the time periods set forth in this Agreement. All reimbursements shall be paid as soon as administratively practicable, but in no event shall any reimbursement be paid after the last day of the taxable year following the taxable year in which the expense was incurred. The amount of in-kind benefits provided or reimbursable expenses incurred in one taxable year shall not affect the in-kind benefits to be provided or the expenses eligible for reimbursement in any other taxable year. Such right to reimbursement or in-kind benefits is not subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit.

(c) To the extent that any payment or benefit described in this Agreement constitutes “non-qualified deferred compensation” under Section 409A of the Code, and to the extent that such payment or benefit is payable upon the Executive’s termination of employment, then such payments or benefits shall be payable only upon the Executive’s “separation from service” (within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code). The determination of whether and when a separation from service has occurred shall be made in accordance with the presumptions set forth in Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-l(h).

(d) The parties intend that this Agreement will be administered in accordance with and the payments and benefits under this Agreement will comply with Section 409A of the Code. To the extent that any provision of this Agreement is ambiguous as to its compliance with Section 409A of the Code, the provision shall be read in such a manner so that all payments hereunder comply with Section 409A of the Code. Each installment payment pursuant to this Agreement is intended to constitute a separate payment for purposes of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-2(b)(2). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company determines or the Executive notifies the Company that this Agreement or any payments or benefits hereunder may not comply with Section 409A of the Code, the Company may amend this Agreement as may be necessary to fully comply with, or be exempt from, Section 409A of the Code and all related rules and regulations in order to preserve the payments and benefits provided hereunder without additional cost to either party; provided that nothing in this Section 7(d) will create any obligation on the part of the Company to amend this Agreement or take any other actions (nor would the Company have any liability for failing to do so in its good faith determination).

(e) The Company makes no representation or warranty and shall have no liability to the Executive or any other person if any provisions of this Agreement are determined to constitute deferred compensation subject to Section 409A of the Code but do not satisfy an exemption therefrom, or the conditions thereof.

8. Arbitration of Disputes. Any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the breach thereof or otherwise arising out of the Executive’s employment or the termination of that employment (including, without limitation, any claims of unlawful employment discrimination whether based on age or otherwise) shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be settled by arbitration in any forum and form agreed upon by the parties or, in the absence of such an agreement, under the auspices of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) in Chicago, Illinois in accordance with the Employment Dispute Resolution Rules of the AAA, including, but not limited to the rules and procedures applicable to the selection of arbitrators. In the event that any person or entity other than the Executive or the Company may be a party with regard to any such controversy or claim, such controversy or claim shall be submitted to arbitration subject to such other person or entity’s agreement. Judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. This Section 8 shall be specifically enforceable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 9 shall not preclude either party from pursuing a court action for the sole purpose of obtaining a temporary restraining order or a preliminary injunction in circumstances in which such relief is appropriate; provided that any other relief shall be pursued through an arbitration proceeding pursuant to this Section 9.

9. Consent to Jurisdiction. To the extent that any court action is permitted consistent with or to enforce Section 9 of this Agreement, the parties hereby consent to the jurisdiction of the state and federal courts of the State of Illinois. Accordingly, with respect to any such court action, the Executive (a) submits to the personal jurisdiction of such courts; (b) consents to service of process; and (c) waives any other requirement (whether imposed by statute, rule of court, or otherwise) with respect to personal jurisdiction or service of process.

10. Indemnification. During the Term, the Company shall purchase and maintain, for the benefit of the Executive, director and officer liability insurance in form at least as comprehensive as, and in an amount that is at least equal to, that maintained by the Company for similarly situated executive officers of the Company.

11. Integration. This Agreement, together with Sections 7-13 of that certain employment agreement by and between the Company and the Executive, dated March 9, 2009 (the “Prior Employment Agreement”) which are incorporated herein by this reference, constitutes the entire agreement and understanding between the Company and the Executive with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement and the Executive’s continued employment with the Company and the events leading thereto and associated therewith, and supersedes and replaces any and all prior agreements and understandings concerning the subject matter of this Agreement and the Executive’s relationship with the Company (including, without limitation and other than with respect to Sections 7-13, the Prior Employment Agreement).

12. Withholding. All payments made by the Company to the Executive under this Agreement shall be net of any tax or other amounts required to be withheld by the Company under applicable law.

13. Successor to the Executive. This Agreement shall be binding on and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Executive’s personal representatives, executors, administrators, heirs, distributees, devisees and legatees. None of the Executive’s rights or obligations may be assigned or transferred by the Executive, other than the Executive’s rights to payments hereunder, which may be transferred only by will or operation of law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of the Executive’s death after his termination of employment but prior to the completion by the Company of all payments due him under this Agreement, the Company shall continue such payments to the Executive’s beneficiary designated in writing to the Company prior to his death (or to his estate, if the Executive fails to make such designation).

14. Enforceability. If any portion or provision of this Agreement (including, without limitation, any portion or provision of any section of this Agreement) shall to any extent be declared illegal or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, then the remainder of this Agreement, or the application of such portion or provision in circumstances other than those as to which it is so declared illegal or unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby, and each portion and provision of this Agreement shall be valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law.

15. Survival. The provisions of this Agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the termination of the Executive’s employment to the extent necessary to effectuate the terms contained herein.

16. Amendment; Waiver. This Agreement may not be modified, amended, or terminated except by an instrument in writing, signed by the Executive and a duly authorized officer of the Company. No waiver of any provision hereof shall be effective unless made in writing and signed by the waiving party. The failure of any party to require the performance of any term or obligation of this Agreement, or the waiver by any party of any breach of this Agreement, shall not prevent any subsequent enforcement of such term or obligation or be deemed a waiver of any subsequent breach.

17. Notices. Any notices, requests, demands and other communications provided for by this Agreement shall be sufficient if in writing and delivered in person or sent by a nationally recognized overnight courier service or by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, to the Executive at the last address the Executive has filed in writing with the Company or, in the case of the Company, at its main offices, attention of the General Counsel.

18. Amendment. This Agreement may be amended or modified only by a written instrument signed by the Executive and by a duly authorized representative of the Company.

19. Governing Law. This is an Illinois contract and shall be construed under and be governed in all respects by the laws of the State of Illinois, without giving effect to the conflict of laws principles thereof. With respect to any disputes concerning federal law, such disputes shall be determined in accordance with the law as it would be interpreted and applied by the United States Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit.

20. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be taken to be an original; but such counterparts shall together constitute one and the same document.

21. Successor In Company. The Company shall assign its rights and obligations under this Agreement to any successor (whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise) to all or substantially all of the business or assets of the Company expressly to assume and agree to perform this Agreement to the same extent that the Company would be required to perform it if no succession had taken place. This Agreement shall be binding on and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Company’s successors and assigns.

22. Gender Neutral. Wherever used herein, a pronoun in the masculine gender shall be considered as including the feminine gender unless the context clearly indicates otherwise.

23. Acknowledgement. The Executive acknowledges that the Executive has read and understands this Agreement, is fully aware of its legal effect, has not acted in reliance upon any representations or promises made by the Company other than those contained in writing herein, and has entered into this Agreement freely based on the Executive’s own judgment.
