Item 5.02. Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

On July 21, 2023, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of F45 Training Holdings Inc. (the “Company”) expanded the size of the Board from 11 directors to 13 directors. In light of the vacancies created by the expansion, the Board elected Tom Dowd, the current Chief Executive Officer of the Company, and Richard Monje to the Board, effective immediately. Mr. Dowd will serve as a Class III director until the Company’s 2024 Annual Meeting of Stockholders and until his successor is duly elected and qualified, and Mr. Monje will serve as a Class I director until the Company’s 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders and until his successor is duly elected and qualified.

As an employee of the Company, Mr. Dowd will not receive compensation for service as a director of the Company. Mr. Monje, who is an affiliate of KLIM (as defined below), will not receive compensation for service as a non-employee director of the Company.

Mr. Dowd has served as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer since April 2023. Mr. Monje is a Managing Director and the Head of Legal Affairs and Strategy of Kennedy Lewis Investment Management LLC (“KLIM”), which is the investment manager to significant stockholders of the Company and a party to the Company’s Third Amended and Restated Stockholders’ Agreement. As disclosed in the Company’s Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 15, 2023 (the “Prior 8-K”), the Company is party to a credit agreement with certain subsidiaries of the Company as guarantors, Alter Domus (US) LLC, as administrative agent and Australian security trustee, and the lenders party thereto. The lender group consists of existing stockholders of the Company, including affiliates of KLIM. In addition, in connection with the entry into the credit agreement, as disclosed in the Prior 8-K, the Company and affiliates of KLIM also entered into a letter agreement, dated as of February 14, 2023, with respect to certain governance matters. Additionally, as previously disclosed, the Company is party to a Master Franchise Agreement with Club Sports Group, LLC, an affiliate of KLIM.

In light of Mr. Dowd’s position as Chief Executive Officer of the Company, and KLIM’s relationship with the Company and Mr. Monje’s role with KLIM, the Board has determined that Mr. Dowd and Mr. Monje are not independent under the standards of the New York Stock Exchange.
