EXPLANATORY NOTE

This Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 relates to the Registration Statement on Form S-8 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) by Just Eat Takeaway.com N.V., a public company with limited liability (naamloze vennootschap) incorporated under the laws of the Netherlands (“Just Eat Takeaway.com”), on 14 June 2021 (File No. 333-257065, the “Registration Statement”).  Under the Registration Statement, Just Eat Takeaway.com registered the following ordinary shares, nominal value €0.04 per share (the “Ordinary Shares”): (i) 3,630,561 Ordinary Shares (which Ordinary Shares may be represented by American depositary shares (“ADSs”)) to be issued pursuant to the exercise or settlement of outstanding equity-based awards originally granted under the Grubhub Inc. 2015 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “Grubhub 2015 Plan”) and assumed by Just Eat Takeaway.com in connection with its acquisition of 100% of the shares of Grubhub Inc. pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of 10 June 2020, as amended (the “Transaction”) and 100,000 Ordinary Shares (which Ordinary Shares may be represented by ADSs) to be issued pursuant to the Grubhub 2015 Plan, (ii) 342,701 Ordinary Shares (which Ordinary Shares may be represented by ADSs) to be issued pursuant to the exercise or settlement of outstanding stock options originally granted under the Grubhub Inc. 2013 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Grubhub 2013 Plan”) and assumed by Just Eat Takeaway.com in connection with the Transaction, (iii) 5,758 Ordinary Shares (which Ordinary Shares may be represented by ADSs) to be issued pursuant to the exercise or settlement of outstanding stock options originally granted under the Tapingo Ltd. – 2011 Option Plan (the “Tapingo Plan”) and assumed by Just Eat Takeaway.com in connection with the Transaction, (iv) 54,817 Ordinary Shares (which Ordinary Shares may be represented by ADSs) to be issued pursuant to the exercise or settlement of outstanding stock options originally granted under the SCVNGR, Inc. 2013 Stock Incentive Plan (the “LevelUp Plan”) and assumed by Just Eat Takeaway.com in connection with the Transaction, (v) 71,236 Ordinary Shares (which Ordinary Shares may be represented by ADSs) to be issued pursuant to the settlement of outstanding restricted stock units granted pursuant to the Grubhub Inc. December 2019 Restricted Stock Unit Inducement Awards (the “Inducement Awards”) that were assumed by Just Eat Takeaway.com in connection with the Transaction, (vi) 10,794,927 Ordinary Shares (which Ordinary Shares may be represented by ADSs) to be issued pursuant to awards to be granted under the Just Eat Takeaway.com N.V. Employee Long Term Incentive Plan (the “JET Employee Long Term Incentive Plan”), (vii) 1,000,000 Ordinary Shares (which Ordinary Shares may be represented by ADSs) to be issued pursuant to awards to be granted under the Short-Term Incentive Plan (the “STI”) under the Management Board Remuneration Policy and (viii) 1,000,000 Ordinary Shares (which Ordinary Shares may be represented by ADSs) to be issued pursuant to awards to be granted under the  Long-Term Incentive (the “LTIP” and, together with the Grubhub 2015 Plan, the Grubhub 2013 Plan, the Tapingo Plan, the LevelUp Plan and the Inducement Awards, each as assumed by Just Eat Takeaway.com, and the JET Employee Long Term Incentive Plan and the STI, the “Plans”). Each ADS currently represents one-fifth of one Ordinary Share and may be evidenced by an American depositary receipt. A separate registration statement on Form F-6 has been filed with the Commission registering the ADSs.

Just Eat Takeaway.com is filing this Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to the Registration Statement for the purpose of clarifying that Ordinary Shares may be either delivered to participants or represented by ADSs to be delivered to participants, in each case, in accordance with the terms of the applicable Plan.

(1)

(2)
The description of the Ordinary Shares contained in the Prospectus under the heading “Description of Just Eat Takeaway.com Shares” and all other amendments and reports filed for the purpose of updating such description; and


(3)
Just Eat Takeaway.com’s current report on Form 6-K filed with the Commission on June 16, 2021 and Exhibit 99.1 of Just Eat Takeaway.com’s current report on Form 6-K filed with the Commission on August 17, 2021, except the information contained in the first bullet on page 1 and the related footnotes, the second table on page 2 and the related footnote, the fourth through sixth rows of the table on page 3 and the related footnotes, the second and third sentences of the fourth paragraph on page 3, the fifth paragraph on page 3, the fourth through sixth rows of the second table on page 4 and the related footnotes, the fifth paragraph on page 4, the first paragraph on page 5, the fourth through sixth rows of the second table on page 5 and the related footnotes, the sixth and seventh paragraphs on page 5, the fourth through sixth rows of the table on page 6 and the related footnotes and the fourth and fifth full paragraphs on page 6.

Item 4.
Description of Securities.

                   Not applicable.

Item 5.
Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.

                   Not applicable.

Item 6.
Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

                   Except as hereinafter set forth, there is no provision of the articles of association of Just Eat Takeaway.com (the “Articles”), contract, arrangement or statute under which any director or officer of Just Eat Takeaway.com is insured or indemnified in any manner against any liability which he or she may incur in his or her capacity as such.

                   Just Eat Takeaway.com is a Dutch public limited liability company and under Dutch law indemnification provisions may be included in the Articles. Accordingly, the Articles provide that, unless Dutch law provides otherwise, Just Eat Takeaway.com will reimburse the current and former Just Eat Takeaway.com Managing Directors and Just Eat Takeaway.com Supervisory Directors for (a) the reasonable costs of conducting a defense against claims based on acts or failures to act in the exercise of their duties or any other duties currently or previously performed by them at the request of Just Eat Takeaway.com; (b) any damages or fines payable by them as a result of an act or failure to act as referred to above under (a); and (c) the reasonable costs of appearing in other legal proceedings or investigations in which they are involved as current or former Just Eat Takeaway.com Managing Directors or Just Eat Takeaway.com Supervisory Directors, with the exception of proceedings primarily aimed at pursuing a claim on their own behalf. However, these persons will not be entitled to reimbursement if and to the extent that (i) a Dutch court or, in the event of arbitration, an arbitrator has established in a final and conclusive decision that the act or failure to act of the person concerned can be characterized as willful (opzettelijk) or grossly negligent (grove schuld) misconduct, unless Dutch law provides otherwise or this would, in view of the circumstances of the case, be unacceptable according to standards of reasonableness and fairness; or (ii) the costs or financial loss of the person concerned are covered by insurance and the insurer has paid out the costs or financial loss. Just Eat Takeaway.com may enter into indemnification agreements with the Just Eat Takeaway.com Managing Directors and Just Eat Takeaway.com Supervisory Directors and officers to provide. Just Eat Takeaway.com has purchased directors’ and officers’ liability insurance for the Just Eat Takeaway.com Managing Directors and Just Eat Takeaway.com Supervisory Directors and certain other officers, substantially in line with that purchased by similarly situated companies conducting business in the same sector.

Item 9.
Undertakings.


(a)
The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:


1.
To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement:

(i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;

(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of this Registration Statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in this Registration Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement;

(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in this Registration Statement or any material change to such information in this Registration Statement;

                   Provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement.


2.
That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.


3.
To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.


(b)
The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the Registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.


(c)
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
