On March 28, 2024, Dusan Senkypl, Groupon, Inc.’s (the “Company”) Interim Chief Executive Officer entered into an amendment (the “Amendment”) to extend the term of his employment agreement (the “Employment Agreement”) dated March 30, 2023 with the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, Groupon Management, LLC. The Amendment extends the term of the Employment Agreement until April 30, 2024. Such Amendment did not change or modify any other terms of the Employment Agreement.

The foregoing description is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Amendment, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated herein in its entirety by reference.
