Explanation of Responses:

1. For purposes of Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the settlement for cash of phantom stock granted in accordance with Rule 16b-3 is deemed a disposition of the phantom shares, an acquisition of a corresponding number of shares of Common Stock and a disposition of such shares to SpartanNash Company (the "Company") for cash at the market price thereof.

2. Reports the grant of shares of restricted stock under the SpartanNash Company 2020 Stock Incentive Plan ("Plan"). These shares will vest in full on November 5, 2020 if the reporting person remains actively employed by the Company through that date. Prior to vesting, these shares will remain subject to restrictions in accordance with the Plan and the terms of the grant.

3. One share of phantom stock is the economic equivalent of one share of Common Stock of the Company, no par value. The terms of the shares of phantom stock provide for settlement only in cash, with no right of the reporting person to receive any actual shares of Common Stock relating thereto.

4. The shares of phantom stock vest and become payable in cash only on the earlier to occur of (a) August 8, 2020 and (b) the date that is 30 days following the employment commencement date of a new Chief Executive Officer of the Company, provided that the reporting person continues to be employed by the Company. In addition, the shares vest if the reporting person's employment is earlier terminated without "cause" by the Company, for "good reason" by the reporting person or as a result of his death or disability.
