Explanatory Note

This Amendment No. 1 (“Amendment No. 1”) to Schedule 13D amends the initial statement on Schedule 13D filed by the Reporting Persons on May 21, 2020 (as amended, the “Schedule 13D”) and relates to the shares of common stock, $0.01 par value (the “Common Stock”), of US Foods Holding Corp., a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”), which may be deemed to be beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons by virtue of their direct and indirect beneficial ownership of shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Series A Preferred Stock”)
 
This Amendment is being filed in connection with an internal reorganization of the holding of shares of Series A Preferred Stock beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons in connection with the transaction described in Item 6 below. In connection with such internal reorganization, KKR Fresh Aggregator L.P. contributed the shares of Series A Preferred Stock to a wholly-owned subsidiary, KKR Fresh Holdings L.P. which now holds such shares directly.  Such transfer did not represent any change in pecuniary interest of any of the Reporting Persons or their affiliates in any securities of the Issuer.
 
The Items below amend the information disclosed under the corresponding Items of the Schedule 13D as described below. Except as specifically provided herein, this Amendment No. 1 does not modify any of the information previously reported in the Schedule 13D. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings attributed to them in the Schedule 13D.

Item 2.
Identity and Background.

Item 2 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated as follows:

The information set forth in Annex A of this Schedule 13D and the cover pages of this Schedule 13D is hereby incorporated by reference into this Item 5.

(a) and (b). The Reporting Persons beneficially own 523,127 shares of Series A Preferred Stock, of which 500,000 shares were acquired in May 2020 and 23,127 shares have been acquired pursuant to payments in-kind of dividends. The Series A Preferred Stock has a liquidation value of $1,000 per share and holders of Series A Preferred Stock are entitled to a cumulative dividend at a rate of 7.0% per annum, payable quarterly in arrears. Each share of Series A Preferred Stock is convertible at any time at the option of the holder thereof into (i) the number of shares of Common Stock equal to the quotient of (A) the sum of the liquidation preference and any accrued dividends with respect to such share of Series A Preferred Stock as of the applicable conversion date divided by (B) the conversion price as of the applicable conversion date plus (ii) cash in lieu of fractional shares. The initial conversion price is a dollar amount equal to $1,000 divided by the initial conversion rate of 46.5116, or approximately $21.50 per share. The initial conversion rate is subject to adjustment from time to time upon the occurrence of certain customary events in accordance with the terms of the Series A Certificate of Designations (as defined below).  Dividends will be payable in kind through the issuance of additional shares of Series A Preferred Stock for the first four dividend payments following the issuance of the Series A Preferred Stock on May 6, 2020, and thereafter, in cash or in kind, or a combination of both, at the option of the Issuer.

All of the computations and share amounts used herein do not give effect to any future accretion on the shares of Series A Preferred Stock or the payments of any dividends in-kind until the time of such declaration and payment. As a result of its beneficial ownership of Series A Preferred Stock, the Reporting Persons may be deemed to beneficially own an aggregate of 24,601,148 shares of Common Stock which would be received upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock, which represents, in the aggregate, approximately 10.0% of the outstanding shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock.  Pursuant to the terms of the Series A Certificate of Designations, due to accretion of dividends and the payment of dividends in-kind, the number of shares of Common Stock into which the Series A Preferred Stock may be converted will increase over time.


The percentage of beneficial ownership in this Schedule 13D is based on 221,078,750 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of February 11, 2021 as set forth in the Annual Report on Form 10-K filed by the Issuer on February 16, 2021.

Each of KKR Fresh Holdings GP LLC (as the general partner of KKR Fresh Holdings L.P.), KKR Fresh Aggregator L.P. (as the sole member of KKR Fresh Holdings GP LLC), KKR Fresh Aggregator GP LLC (as the general partner of KKR Fresh Aggregator L.P.), KKR Americas Fund XII L.P. (as the sole member of KKR Fresh Aggregator GP LLC), KKR Associates Americas XII L.P.

(as the sole shareholder of KKR Group Holdings Corp.), KKR Management LLP (as the Series I preferred stockholder of KKR & Co. Inc.), and Messrs. Kravis and Roberts (as the founding partners of KKR Management LLP) may be deemed to be the beneficial owner of the securities beneficially owned directly by KKR Fresh Holdings L.P.

The filing of this Schedule 13D shall not be construed as an admission that any of the above-listed entities or individuals is the beneficial owner of any securities covered by this Schedule 13D.

To the best knowledge of the Reporting Persons, none of the individuals named in Item 2 beneficially owns any shares of Common Stock except as described herein.

(c) Except as set forth in the Explanatory Note to this Amendment No. 1 and as described herein, none of the Reporting Persons, or, to the best knowledge of the Reporting Persons, any other individual named in Item 2 has engaged in any transaction in any shares of Common Stock during the past 60 days.

(d) To the best knowledge of the Reporting Persons, no one other than the Reporting Persons, or the partners, members, affiliates or shareholders of the Reporting Persons has the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, the securities of the Issuer reported as beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons herein.
