AUSTIN, TX, February 15, 2023 – F45 Training Holdings Inc. (NYSE: FXLV) (“F45” or the “Company”) today announced the closing of a new $90 million subordinated debt facility provided by a consortium of existing investors, led by affiliates of Kennedy Lewis Management LP (the “New Facility”). This financing will improve the Company’s balance sheet and enhance liquidity as the strengthened Board and leadership team drive the business forward and position F45 for long-term sustainable growth.

“The financing transaction, combined with our recently implemented operational realignment and cost reduction initiative, enable us to increase the support we provide our valued franchisee network and continue to deliver on our mission of offering the world’s best workout,” said Ben Coates, F45’s Interim Chief Executive Officer. “We are glad to have secured this significant financing from investors who share our vision.”

Darren Richman, Co-Founder, Co-Portfolio Manager, and Co-Managing Partner of Kennedy Lewis, added, “We’re pleased to deepen our partnership with F45, an innovator with a differentiated brand that is uniquely positioned to capitalize on the growing trend of consumers prioritizing health and fitness in their daily lives. As long-time investors in F45, we have a deep understanding of, and continued confidence in, the business and the opportunity ahead for F45 as a disruptor in the fitness space.”

Refreshing Company’s Board of Directors and Strengthening Leadership Team

In connection with the closing of the transaction, current Board member Gene Davis – who has more than four decades of strategic planning, business transformation, and governance expertise – was appointed Chairman, and four new independent directors were appointed to the Board: Timothy Bernlohr, Lisa Gavales, Steven Scheiwe, and Ray Wallander. These new directors, who together bring a wealth of management and consumer sector experience, replace Angelo Demasi, Vanessa Douglas, and Lee Wallace, who each resigned at closing. Remaining on the Board with Mr. Davis are Ben Coates, Adam Gilchrist, Elizabeth Josefsberg, and Michael Raymond, as well as F45 investor, enthusiast, and brand ambassador Mark Wahlberg.

The Company has named Bob Madore as Interim Chief Financial Officer. Mr. Madore is a seasoned executive with more than 30 years of management experience and a proven track record of growing brands in global markets, as well as leading and scaling financial operations while strengthening business performance to deliver profitable growth.

Transaction Details

The New Facility has a five-and-a-half-year term, with interest to be paid in kind. Net proceeds will be used for, among other things, general corporate purposes and a partial paydown of the Company’s existing Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility with JP Morgan Chase Bank, N.A. (the “JPM Facility”). Concurrent with the closing of the New Facility and the partial paydown, the Company amended the JPM Facility to be structured as a $70 million senior secured facility with a two-year term, comprising a $68 million term loan and a $2 million revolving credit facility.

The Company has not received anything further from Kennedy Lewis with respect to its prior proposal or a revised proposal. In the event Kennedy Lewis engages with the Company on its proposal, including any revision thereof, the Board will consider such proposal at the appropriate time and will act in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders in accordance with its fiduciary duties.
