Preliminary Note

This filing, dated August 20, 2019 (this "Amendment"), amends and supplements the Schedule 13D initially filed on February 17, 2015 by Gramercy Tavern Corp. (as amended and supplemented to date, the "Schedule 13D") relating to shares of Class A common stock, $0.001 par value per share (the "A-Common"), of Shake Shack Inc. (the "Issuer"). Capitalized terms used in this Amendment and not otherwise defined herein shall have the same meanings ascribed to them in the Schedule 13D.

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction

Pursuant to a Stockholder Agreement, dated as of February 4, 2015, as amended, between the Issuer, the Reporting Person, Daniel H. Meyer and Mr. Meyer’s other affiliates (collectively, the “Meyer Stockholders”), and the other parties thereto, the Meyer Stockholders had the right to cause all of the stock of the Reporting Person to be exchanged for shares of the A-Common pursuant to a tax-free reorganization under Section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”). On August 16, 2019, at the Meyer Stockholders’ election, such a reorganization (the “Reorganization”) was completed. The Reorganization was structured as a two-step merger, whereby a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Issuer merged with and into the Reporting Person, with the Reporting Person as the surviving corporation, which then merged with and into the Issuer, resulting in (i) cancellation of the shares of Class B common stock, $0.001 par value per share (the “B-Common”) of the Issuer held by the Reporting Person, (ii) transfer of the common membership interests in SSE Holdings, LLC (the “LLC Interests”) held by the Reporting Person to the Issuer, and (iii) the exchange of common stock of the Reporting Person held by the shareholders of the Reporting Person for shares of A-Common.

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer

Item 5(c) of the Schedule 13D is amended and supplemented by the following:

(c) On August 16, 2019, the Reporting Person disposed of all of its shares of the Issuer in connection with the Reorganization.

Item 5(e) of the Schedule 13D is amended and restated in its entirety by inserting the following information:

(e) August 16, 2019

Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships With Respect to Securities of the Issuer

Item 6 is hereby amended and supplemented by the following:

In connection with the Reorganization, on August 16, 2019 (the “First Effective Time”), SSI GT Merger Sub, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Issuer (the “Merger Sub”), and the Reporting Person entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Agreement and Plan of Merger #1”). Pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger #1, Merger Sub merged with and into the Reporting Person, as a result of which the ownership interest of the shareholders of the Reporting Person outstanding prior to the First Effective Time (the “shares”) were exchanged for an amount of shares of A-Common, based upon the amount of shares held by the shareholders of the Reporting Person, at the exchange rate of one to one. A Certificate of Merger was filed with the New York State Department of State Division of Corporations on the First Effective Time.

On August 16, 2019 (the “Second Effective Time”), the Reporting Person and the Issuer entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Agreement and Plan of Merger #2”). Pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger #2, the Reporting Person merged with and into the Issuer, as a result of which (i) each share of B-Common held by the Reporting Person immediately prior to the Second Effective Time was cancelled and (ii) the LLC Interests held by the Reporting Person immediately prior to the Second Effective Time were transferred to the Issuer. A Certificate of Ownership was filed with the Delaware Secretary of State Division of Corporations on the Second Effective Time.
