This summary highlights information contained elsewhere in this proxy statementProxy Statement and does not contain all of the information that you should consider. You should read the entire proxy statement carefully before voting.

Our Annual Meeting

At the Annual Meeting, the stockholders of the Company will be asked to vote on the four proposals below. Your vote is very important. Accordingly, whether or not you plan to attend the Annual Meeting, you should vote by using one of the methods described in these proxy materials. You may vote your shares at the Annual Meeting by voting via the Internet or by telephone as described in these proxy materials or by having your shares represented at the Annual Meeting by a valid proxy. If your shares are not registered directly in your name (e.g., you hold your shares in a stock brokerage account or through a bank or other holder of record), you may vote by following the instructions detailed on the notice or voting instruction form you receive from your broker or other nominee. Stockholders may submit questions by following the instructions available on the website for the

1

Annual Meeting. A list of all stockholders entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting will be available for inspection at our executive offices.

Any stockholder who executes and delivers a proxy has the right to revoke it at any time before it is exercised by delivering to the Corporate Secretary of the Company an instrument revoking it or a duly executed proxy bearing a later date, or by attending the Annual Meeting and voting. Subject to revocation, the proxy holders will vote all shares represented by a properly executed proxy received in time for the Annual Meeting in accordance with the instructions on the proxy. If no instruction is specified with respect to a matter to be acted upon, the shares represented by the proxy will be voted in accordance with the recommendation of the Board.

The expenses of preparing, assembling, printing and mailing the Internet Availability Notice, this Proxy Statement and the materials used in the solicitation of proxies will be borne by the Company. Proxies will be solicited through the Internet and the mail and may be solicited by our officers, directors and employees in person or by telephone, email or facsimile. They will not receive additional compensation for this effort. We do not anticipate paying any compensation to any other party for the solicitation of proxies, but may reimburse brokerage firms and others for their reasonable expenses in forwarding solicitation material to beneficial owners. The Company may retain the services of a proxy solicitation firm if, in the Board’s view, it is deemed necessary or advisable. Although the Company does not currently expect to retain such a firm, it estimates that the fees of such firm could be up to $20,000, plus out-of-pocket expenses, all of which would be paid by the Company.

Quorum Requirements

In order to constitute a quorum for the conduct of business at the Annual Meeting, the holders of a majority in voting power of Common Stock entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting must be present at the meeting or represented by proxy. Shares represented by proxies that reflect abstentions or broker non-votes will be counted as shares that are present and entitled to vote for purposes of determining the presence of a quorum.

Required Vote

Each share of our Class A Common Stock outstanding on the record date is entitled to one vote on each of the nine director nominees and one vote on each other matter. Each share of our Class X Common Stock outstanding on the record date is entitled to ten votes on each of the nine director nominees and ten votes on each other matter.

For Proposal 1, the election of directors, the nominees to serve as directors will be elected by a plurality of the votes cast by the stockholders entitled to vote at the election (meaning that the nine director nominees who receive the highest number of shares voted “for” their election are elected). You may vote “For” or “Withhold” with respect to each director nominee. Votes that are withheld will be excluded entirely from the vote with respect to the nominee from which they are withheld and will have no effect on the election of directors.

2

shares voted “against” such proposal). You may vote “For,” “Against” or “Abstain” from voting on each of these proposals. Any shares of Common Stock that are not voted (whether by abstention or otherwise) will have no impact on the outcome of the vote with respect to these proposals. For Proposal 3, because your vote is advisory, it will not be binding on the Company, the Board or the Compensation Committee. However, the Board and the Compensation Committee will consider the outcome of the vote when making future decisions regarding the compensation of our named executive officers.

Generally, broker non-votes occur when shares held by a broker in “street name” for a beneficial owner are not voted with respect to a particular proposal because the broker (1) has not received voting instructions from the beneficial owner and (2) lacks discretionary voting power to vote those shares. Broker non-votes, if any, will have no effect on Proposal 1 regarding the election of directors. For Proposal 3 and Proposal 4, broker non-votes, if any, will not be counted in determining the number of votes cast and will have no effect on the approval of the relevant proposal. Proposal 2 and Proposal 4 are eachis a routine matter and no broker non-votes are expected to exist in connection with these proposals.this proposal. If your shares are held in an account at a bank or brokerage firm, that bank or brokerage firm may vote your shares of Common Stock on Proposal 2, and Proposal 4, but will not be permitted to vote your shares of common stock with respect to Proposal 1, Proposal 3 or Proposal 3,4, unless you provide instructions as to how your shares should be voted. However, we also understand that certain brokerage firms have elected not to vote even on “routine” matters without your voting instructions. If your broker or other nominee has made this decision and you do not provide voting instructions, your vote will not be cast and will have no effect on the vote of the four proposals at this Annual Meeting. Accordingly, we urge you to direct your broker or other nominee how to vote by returning your voting materials as instructed or by obtaining a proxy from your broker or other nominee in order to vote your shares in person at the special meeting.

If an executed proxy card is returned by a bank or broker holding shares which indicates that the bank or broker has not received voting instructions and does not have discretionary authority to vote on the proposals, the shares will not be considered to have been voted in favor of the proposals. Your bank or broker will vote your shares on Proposal 1, Proposal 3 or Proposal 34 only if you provide instructions on how to vote by following the instructions they provide to you. Accordingly, we encourage you to vote promptly, even if you plan to attend the virtual Annual Meeting.

Additional Information Regarding the Internet Availability of Our Proxy Materials

We are pleased to take advantage of SEC rules that allow companies to furnish their proxy materials over the Internet. Accordingly, we sent to the majority of our stockholders an Internet Availability Notice regarding the Internet availability of the proxy materials for this year’s Annual Meeting. Other stockholders were instead sent paper copies of the proxy materials accessible on the Internet. Instructions on how to access the proxy materials over the Internet or to request a paper copy can be found in the Internet Availability Notice. In addition, stockholders may request to receive proxy materials in printed form by mail or electronically by email on an ongoing basis by going to www.investorelections.com/BODYBODI and following the instructions or calling 1-866-648-8133. A stockholder’s election to receive proxy materials by mail or e-mail will remain in effect until the stockholder terminates or changes such election.

Please note that you cannot vote your shares by filling out and returning the Internet Availability Notice. The Internet Availability Notice does, however, include instructions on how to vote your shares.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

We are committed to continually enhancing our strong corporate governance practices, which we believe helps us sustain our success and build long-term value for our stockholders. Our Board of Directors sets high standards for our employees, officers and directors. Implicit in this philosophy is the importance of sound corporate governance. It is the duty of the Board to serve as a prudent fiduciary for stockholders and to oversee the management of the Company’s business. Our governance structure enables independent, experienced and accomplished directors to provide advice, insight, guidance and oversight to advance the interests of the Company and our stockholders.

Director Independence

New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) listing standards require that a majority of our Board be independent. An “independent director” is defined generally as a person other than an officer or employee of the company or its subsidiaries or any other individual having a relationship which, in the opinion of the Board, would interfere with the director’s exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director. In making these determinations, the Board has considered information provided by the directors and management with regard to the business and personal activities, relationships and related party transactions of each director. Our Board has determined that Mmes. Conlin, Frank and Lundy and Messrs. Heller, Mayer and Van de Bunt are “independent directors” as defined in the NYSE listing standards and Mmes. Conlin, Frank and Lundy and Messrs. Mayer and Van de Bunt are “independent directors” as defined in the applicable SEC rules. Our independent directors have regularly scheduled meetings at which only independent directors are present.

Background and experience of directors

Our nominating and corporate governance committee is responsible for reviewing with our Board, on an annual basis, the appropriate characteristics, skills and experience required for the Board of Directors as a whole and its individual members. In evaluating the suitability of individual candidates (both new candidates and current members), the nominating and corporate governance committee, in recommending candidates for election, and the Board of Directors, in approving (and, in the case of vacancies, appointing) such candidates, will take into account many factors, including the following:

Role of the board in risk oversight

Our Board has an active role, as a whole and also at the committee level, in overseeing the management of our risks. Our Board is responsible for general oversight of risks and regular review of information regarding our risks, including credit risks, liquidity risks, and operational risks. The compensation committee is responsible for

overseeing the management of risks relating to our human capital and executive compensation plans and

The current composition of each board committee is set forth below.

Audit committee

Our audit committee consists of Mary Conlin, Ann Lundy and Kevin Mayer, with Ms. Lundy serving as chair. Rule 10A-3 of the Exchange Act and the NYSE rules require that our Audit Committee be composed entirely of independent members. Our Board of Directors has affirmatively determined that Mmes. Conlin and Lundy and Mr. Mayer each meet the definition of “independent director” for purposes of serving on the Audit Committee under Rule 10A-3 of the Exchange Act and the NYSE rules. Each member of our Audit Committee also meets the financial literacy requirements of NYSE listing standards. In addition, our Board of Directors has determined that Ms. Lundy qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert,” as such term is defined in Item 407(d)(5) of Regulation S-K. Our audit committee held four meetings in 2022.2023.

Our audit committee is responsible for, among other things:

PRE-APPROVAL OF SERVICES BY INDEPENDENT REGISTERED ACCOUNTING FIRM

The audit committee pre-approves all audit, audit-related, tax, and other services performed by our independent auditors. The audit committee pre-approves specific categories of services up to pre-established fee thresholds. Unless the type of service had previously been pre-approved, the audit committee must approve that specific service before the independent auditors may perform it. In addition, separate approval is required if the amount of fees for any pre-approved category of service exceeds the fee thresholds established by the audit committee. The audit committee has delegated to the chair of the committee pre-approval authority with respect to permitted services, provided that the chair must report any pre-approval decisions to the committee at its next scheduled meeting. All fees described below were pre-approved by the audit committee.

PROPOSAL 2: RATIFICATION OF APPOINTMENT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The audit committee is directly responsible for the appointment, compensation, retention and oversight of the independent external audit firm retained to audit the Company’s financial statements. As disclosed in our Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on April 14, 2023, in connection with a competitive process to determine the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2023, on April 11, 2023, the audit committee dismissed Ernst & Young LLP (“EY”) as our independent registered public accounting firm effective as of that date and approved the engagement of Deloitte & Touche LLP (“Deloitte”) as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year-ended December 31, 2023.

As a matter of good corporate governance, we are asking the stockholders to ratify the selection of Deloitte & Touche LLP (“Deloitte”) as our independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2023.2024.

Stockholders are not required to ratify the appointment of Deloitte as our independent registered public accounting firm. If stockholders fail to ratify the appointment, the audit committee will consider whether or not to retain Deloitte. Even if the appointment is ratified, the audit committee may direct the appointment of a different independent registered public accounting firm at any time during the year if it determines that such a change would be in the best interests of the Company and our stockholders.

Representatives of Deloitte will be present at the Annual Meeting, will have the opportunity to make a statement if they desire to do so, and will be available to respond to appropriate questions.

Change in Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

As discussed above,disclosed in our Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on April 14, 2023, in connection with a competitive process to determine the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2023, on April 11, 2023, the audit committee dismissed Ernst & Young LLP (“EY”) as our independent registered public accounting firm effective as of that date and approved the engagement of Deloitte & Deloitte as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year-ended December 31, 2023. On April 11, 2023, the audit committee approved the engagement of Deloitte as our independent registered public accounting firm, replacing EY, our prior independent registered public accounting firm.

Other than the material weaknesses described below, the audit reports of EY on the Company’s consolidated financial statements for each of the two years ended December 31, 2022, did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles. During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 and in the subsequent interim period through April 11, 2023, there were no “disagreements” (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions) with EY on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreement, if not resolved to the satisfaction of EY, would have caused EY to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in connection with EY’s report.

During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 and in the subsequent interim period through April 11, 2023, there were no “reportable events” (as defined under Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K), except that, as previously reported in Part II, Item 9A of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, the Company identified material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting that existed as of December 31, 2022. For the Company’s information technology general controls (“ITGCs”) over information systems and applications that are relevant to the preparation of the consolidated financial statements, the Company did not maintain (i) sufficient user access controls to ensure appropriate segregation of duties and to restrict access to financial applications, programs and data to only authorized users, and (ii) program change management controls to ensure that information technology program and data changes

17

authorized and implemented. Business process controls that are dependent on the ITGCs, or that rely on data produced from systems impacted by the ineffective ITGCs, were also deemed ineffective. The Company also did not maintain effective controls over its impairment analyses for goodwill and long-lived assets as sufficient contemporaneous documentation was retained to demonstrate the operation of review controls over the forecasts used in developing estimates of fair value. The material weaknesses as previously reported in Part II, Item 9A of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, in connection with our assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2022, have been remediated.

We provided EY with a copy of the disclosure we made in our Current Report on Form 8-K and requested that EY furnish us with a copy of their letter addressed to the SEC stating whether EY agrees with the statements made therein. A copy of EY’s letter, dated April 14, 2023, was filed as Exhibit 16.1 to our Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on April 14, 20232023.

Principal Accountant Fees and Services

The following table presents the fees for professional audit services rendered by EYDeloitte and fees billed for other services rendered by EYDeloitte for the yearsyear ended December 31, 2022 and 2021.2023. There were no fees for professional audit services rendered or fees billed for other services rendered by Deloitte for the year ended December 31, 2022.

Required Vote

Adoption of this proposal requires the affirmative vote of the majority of the votes cast (meaning the number of shares voted “for” a proposal must exceed the number of shares voted “against” such proposal). Abstentions and broker non-votes are not considered votes cast for the foregoing purpose, and will have no effect on the vote for this proposal.

Recommendation of the Board of Directors

Our Board of Directors unanimously recommends that the stockholders vote FOR the ratification of Deloitte as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2023.2024.

AUDIT COMMITTEE REPORT

The audit committee’s specific responsibilities are set forth in its charter. The audit committee reviews its charter at least annually.

Compensation Governance and Best Practices.

We are committed to having strong governance standards with respect to our compensation programs, procedures and practices. Our key compensation practices include the following:

23

Stockholder Advisory Vote on Executive Compensation

We are askingAt our stockholders at this2023 Annual Meeting of stockholders, our stockholders voted in a non-binding, advisory vote to approve the compensation of our NEOs (the “Say-on-Pay(“Say-on-Pay Vote”)., with 99% of the shares cast voting for approval. Our Compensation Committee will reviewreviewed the result of this Say-on-Pay Vote, and, depending onin light of the outcome, willapproval by a substantial majority of our stockholders of the compensation programs described in our 2023 proxy statement, did not implement any necessarysignificant changes to our executive compensation program as a result of the vote. We were not required to hold a Say-on-Pay Vote in 2022; however, atAt our 2022 annual meeting2023 Annual Meeting of stockholders, our stockholders voted in a non-binding advisory vote in favor of having a Say-On-Pay Vote once every year. Consistent with the stated preference of a majority of our stockholders, our next advisory vote on our NEOs’ compensation (after the Say-On-Pay Vote held at this Annual Meeting) will be held at our 2024 annual meeting2025 Annual Meeting of stockholders.

Executive Compensation Objectives and Philosophy

The key objective of our executive compensation program is to motivate and reward our executives to drive the Company’s short- and long-term financial and strategic business performance in order to maximize long-term stockholder value. Specifically, our executive compensation philosophy is to have a compensation program that:

Our compensation philosophy is supported by the pay strategy, which is based on two primary guiding principles: (1) provide a mix of fixed and at-risk compensation to attract and retain key talent who thrive in a results-driven environment, and (2) set competitive pay levels to effectively attract and retain key talent. While external market data will be used as a reference point in setting pay levels, executives are not targeted to a certain market percentile positioning; instead, executives may be compensated above or below the market median based on several internal and external factors including their respective role and responsibilities, contribution to the organization, individual performance and potential, experience in the role, internal equity, Company performance and external market data, as described further below under “—Determination of Executive Compensation”.

Determination of Executive Compensation

Role of Compensation Committee and Executive Officers

The Compensation Committee is responsible for establishing and overseeing our executive compensation programs and we expect that the Compensation Committee will annually review and determine the compensation to be provided to our NEOs, including with respect to our Chief Executive Officer.

Consistent with our compensation philosophy, in setting executive compensation, the Compensation Committee will consider a number of factors, including the recommendations of our Chief Executive Officer and Executive Chairman (other than with respect to the Chief Executive Officer’s and Executive Chairman’s own compensation) and our People team, current and past total compensation, competitive market data and analysis provided by the Compensation Committee’s independent compensation consultant, Company performance and each executive’s impact on performance, each executive’s relative scope of responsibility and potential, each executive’s individual performance and demonstrated leadership, and internal equity pay considerations.

24

Role of Compensation Consultant

In order to design a competitive, public company executive compensation program that will continue to attract top executive talent and reflect our compensation philosophy, our Compensation Committee retained ClearBridge Compensation Group, LLC as an independent compensation consultant (the “Compensation Consultant”). The Compensation Consultant provides executive compensation advisory services, helps evaluate our compensation philosophy and objectives and provides guidance in administering our executive compensation program.

In 2022, we developed a peer group with our Compensation Consultant in structuring our executive compensation program for fiscal year 2022.2023. We have selected the peer group companies based on a combination of relevant factors, including company size (as measured by revenue), market capitalization, and industry, with a focus on fitness/lifestyle companies, health and wellness companies, and other related technology-focused and/or media and entertainment companies. At the time the peer group was set, BODi’s annual revenue approximated the 50th percentile of the peer group revenue. This peer group was used for 2022our 2023 compensation program decisions, and the Compensation Committee expects to review the relevance of the peer group on an annual basis and determine if any future modifications are necessary at that time. The following peer group was used to inform 20222023 compensation decisions:

As mentioned above, the Compensation Committee does not benchmark any compensation element to a specific percentile, and instead uses the full market range of the peer group benchmarked data as a reference point in setting pay levels.

Elements of Compensation

Base Salary

The base salaries of our NEOs are an important part of their total compensation package, and are intended to reflect their respective positions, duties and responsibilities. Base salaries provide our NEOs with a reasonable degree of financial certainty and stability. Our Compensation Committee annually reviews and determines the base salaries of our executives and evaluates the base salaries of newly hired executives at the time of hire.

The base salaries for each of our NEOs in 2022 was not increased or changed from fiscal year 2021. Our NEOs’ annual base salaries as of December 31, 2022 are as follows:

25

The actual 2023 base salaries paid to our NEOs are set forth in the column entitled “Salary” in the “Summary Compensation Table” below.

Cash Incentive Compensation

Annual Bonus Program

We consider annual incentive bonuses to be an important component of our total compensation program by providing incentives necessary to motivate our executive officers to achieve our key short-term business objectives. The Company currently maintains an annual bonus program in which certain eligible employees, including certain of our NEOs, participate. Under the program, each participating NEO is eligible to receive an annual performance-based bonus based on a specified target annual bonus award amount, expressed as a percentage of the named NEO’s base salary.

The target bonus opportunities were determined by our Compensation Committee by considering each NEO’s role and responsibilities at our Company.Company, and were not changed from fiscal year 2022. The NEOs’ target bonus opportunities under our 20222023 annual bonus program were as follows:follows. Mr. Goldston does not receive any cash compensation for his service as Executive Chairman and, therefore, was not eligible to participate in our 2023 bonus program.

Under the 20222023 bonus program, the incentive bonuses were to be earned based upon the achievement of pre-determined Pre-Bonus EBITDA (asand Revenue (each, as defined below) goals. In the Compensation Committee’s discretion, bonuses under the 20222023 program could be paid in cash, fully vested RSUs or options, or a combination thereof. Any bonus payouts were also subject to satisfying lender covenant requirements, such as minimum cash requirements, at the time of payout.

Under the 20222023 bonus program, participants were eligible to receive a percentage of the participant’s target bonus opportunity, ranging from 0% to 150%, based on the level at which the performance goal was achieved, as set forth in the following table:

26

In 2022,2023, our actual Pre-Bonus EBITDA achieved was ($12.6 million),8.7) million and our actual Revenue achieved was $527.1 million, which was betweenwere below the “target” and “maximum”“threshold” performance levels. Therefore, our Compensation Committee determined that the performance goal wasgoals were not attained at a level of 124.8%. However, based on management’s and the Compensation Committee’s assessment of cash availability and lender covenant requirements at the time of bonus payouts, the Compensation Committee decided to apply negative discretion to award our remaining NEOs with an amount equal to 50% of their respective target bonus opportunities for 2022, payable in fully vested RSUs.

In addition, Ms. Collyns’ employment with the Company was terminated on May 31, 2022. Accordingly, pursuantno bonuses were awarded to the severance terms under her employment agreement, Ms. Collyns was eligible to receive her 2022 target annual bonus, which was pro-rated based on the number of days Ms. Collyns was employed by the Company during 2022.NEOs for 2023.

The actual value of the 2022 bonuses paid to our NEOs is set forth in the column entitled “Non-Equity Incentive Plan Compensation” in the “Summary Compensation Table” below. The number of RSUs subject to the award was determined based on the closing price of our Common Stock on the grant date.

Other Cash Compensation

All of our full-time employees, including certain of the NEOs, are eligible to receive annual service-based anniversary bonuses, based on length of service with the Company in an amount equal to $100 for each year of service. The actual anniversary bonuses awarded to each NEOour NEOs in 20222023 are set forth below in the Summary Compensation Table in the column entitled “Bonuses.”

Equity-Based Long-Term Incentive Awards

We view equity-based compensation as a critical component of our balanced total compensation program. Equity-based compensation creates an ownership culture among our employees that provides an incentive to contribute to the continued growth and development of our business and aligns the interests of executives with those of our stockholders.

Our Compensation Committee believes it is essential to provide equity-based compensation to our executive officers in order to link the interests and risks of our executive officers with those of our stockholders, reinforcing our commitment to ensuring a strong linkage between company/stock price performance and pay, and to promote retention.

In 2022, we granted certain2023, as part of our NEOs an option under our annual equity award program.program, we granted Messrs. Suidan and Neimand and Ms. Vrabeck received an additional option at the time of her promotion to Chief Operating Officer, and Mr. Suidan received

27

The awards granted to Messrs. Suidan and Neimand and Ms. Vrabeck vest and (as applicable) becomesbecome exercisable with respect to 25% of the shares underlying the award on each of the first four anniversaries of the applicable grant date, subject to continued employment through the applicable vesting date.

The Compensation Committee also considered alternative vehicles/approaches for the 20222023 annual equity award program (including performance-vesting awards), and ultimately decided to continue with 100%award 50% stock options and 50% RSUs for the annual equity grants given the stock price volatility and difficulty in setting long-term performance goals. In deciding to grant stock options, the Compensation Committee also recognized that stock options directly incentivize shareholder value creation going forward. Introducing RSUs to the equity mix for the NEOs also ensures a portion of the grant retains value in all stock price scenarios, enhancing the retentive value of the 2023 annual equity award program, while recognizing the value of the RSUs directly tracks with stock price performance. The Compensation Committee will continue to evaluate the program design and vehicles on an annual basis.

Goldston Sign-On Option

On June 15, 2023, in connection with entering into his employment offer letter, Mr. Goldston was granted a stock option under the Inducement Plan, covering an aggregate of 477,661 shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock (the “Goldston Option”). Of this amount, 159,221 shares subject to the Goldston Option will vest and become exercisable based on continued service (the “Time-Vesting Shares”) and 318,440 shares will vest and become exercisable based on the attainment of applicable performance goals and continued service (the “Performance-Vesting Shares”).

The Time-Vesting Shares will vest and become exercisable with respect to 25% of the Time-Vesting Shares subject to the Goldston Option on each of the first four anniversaries of June 15, 2023, subject to Mr. Goldston’s continued service through the applicable vesting date.

As mentioned above, the Performance-Vesting Shares will vest and become exercisable based on both (1) the achievement of pre-determined price per share goals and (2) Mr. Goldston’s service through the applicable vesting date. A number of the Performance-Vesting Shares will become “earned” based on the achievement of applicable price per share goals (the “Price Per Share Goals”) set forth in the following table. Any earned Performance-Vesting Shares will vest and become exercisable as of the later of (1) June 15, 2024, and (2) the date on which the applicable Price Per Share Goal is achieved, subject to Mr. Goldston’s continued service through such date.

The share price is measured by averaging the fair market value (as defined in the Inducement Plan) per share over any 30 consecutive trading-day period; however, upon a “change in control” (as defined in the Inducement Plan), the share price generally will be determined based on the price per share paid by an acquiror (or, as applicable, the implied value per share) in the transaction (the “CIC Price”).

28

The Goldston Option is intended to reflect Mr. Goldston’s total compensation opportunity for his service as Executive Chairman. As noted above, Mr. Goldston did not receive any cash compensation in 2023 and is not expected to receive any cash compensation and/or any additional grants of equity compensation for his service as Executive Chairman.

The Compensation Committee’s rationale for offering Mr. Goldston the Goldston Option is to provide Mr. Goldston with significant incentive to execute on the Company’s business strategy and achieve the above stock price performance hurdles. In addition, the grant is heavily performance-based, with 2/3 of the shares subject to the Goldston Option (318,440 shares) tied to achieving specific stock price goals, aligning Mr. Goldston’s interests with those of our shareholders, and ensuring his compensation package directly incentivizes Mr. Goldston to enhance shareholder value creation. While the remaining 1/3 of the shares subject to the Goldston Option (159,221 shares) are time-vesting only, these shares will also have no value for Mr. Goldston if the Company’s stock price is below the exercise price ($22.02/share).

The Goldston Option also is subject to accelerated vesting provisions and other terms and conditions in connection with a change in control and qualifying terminations of employment, as described below in the section titled, “Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control.”

In connection with the grant of the Goldston Option, Mr. Daikeler recommended and agreed to forfeit 63,999 shares of Class A Common Stock and 96,001 shares of Class X Common Stock that Mr. Daikeler beneficially owned to help offset the potential dilutive impact of the grant to Mr. Goldston.

As of April 5, 2024, none of the share price performance goals have been achieved.

Repricing of Stock Options

In 2023, the Company determined that a significant portion of its outstanding stock options had an exercise price per share that was significantly higher than the current fair market value of the Company’s common stock (the “Underwater Options”). In order to help retain and motivate holders of Underwater Options, and align their interests with those of our stockholders, on September 14, 2023, the Compensation Committee resolved that it was in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders to implement an option repricing program to reduce the exercise prices of certain of the Underwater Options held by our employees and consultants (including certain of our NEOs).

The Underwater Options that were impacted by the option repricing program were either (1) not maturing in fiscal 2023 or (2) had an exercise price of equal to or greater than $50 per share (on a post-split basis) in the prior twelve months, to reduce the exercise price of each Amended Underwater Option to the closing per share price of the Company’s common stock on September 14, 2023 (the “Repricing”), which was $17.35 per share (on a post-split basis).

Excluded from the Repricing were, among others, Underwater Options held by members of the Board, the Company’s CEO and Executive Chairman; any Underwater Options with an exercise price less than $50.00; and options granted to consultants who are no longer providing services to the Company.

The number of shares, the vesting schedules, and the expiration dates of the original Underwater Options remain unchanged.

As described above, given that a significant portion of outstanding equity to employees (including our NEOs), and therefore a significant portion of intended target compensation, was tied to the Underwater Options, repricing these options was deemed crucial by the Compensation Committee to retain the necessary talent to execute on the Company’s long-term business strategy. The primary aim of the option repricing program was to enhance the retentive value of the outstanding stock options and their alignment with the then-current stock price at the time of the repricing. In addition, this approach helped retain employees (including certain of our NEOs) while avoiding the need for any new additional compensation actions to achieve the desired retention and motivation objectives.

Employee Benefits and Perquisites

Retirement Savings, Health and Welfare Benefits

We maintain a 401(k) retirement savings plan for our employees, including our NEOs, who satisfy certain eligibility requirements; in 2022, each of2023, our NEOs participated in the 401(k) plan on the same terms as other full-time employees. The Code allows eligible employees to defer a portion of their compensation, within prescribed limits, on a pre-tax basis through contributions to the 401(k) plan. In 2022,2023, contributions made by participants in the 401(k) plan were matched up to a specified percentage of the employee contributions, and these matching contributions vest based on years of service. We believe that providing a vehicle for tax-deferred retirement savings though our 401(k) plan adds to the overall desirability of our executive compensation package and further incentivizes our employees, including our NEOs, in accordance with our compensation policies.

Health and Welfare Plans

All of our full-time employees, including our NEOs, are eligible to participate in our health and welfare plans, including medical, dental and vision benefits, medical and dependent care flexible spending accounts, short-term and long-term disability insurance, and life insurance.

Other Perquisites

We also provide certain other perquisites to our NEOs, including a car allowance, a work-from-home allowance and reimbursement for mobile phone expenses. We may also make tax gross-up payments to cover the personal income taxes that may be imposed on Ms. Vrabeck in connection with the severance payments for continued healthcare coverage payable to Ms. Vrabeck upon certain qualifying terminations of her employment, as summarized below under the section entitled, “—Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control”.

In the future, we may provide other or additional perquisites or other personal benefits in limited circumstances, such as where we believe it is appropriate to assist an individual executive officer in the performance of the

28

Other Policies and Considerations

Insider Trading Compliance Policy. We have adopted our Insider Trading Compliance Policy which is designed to promote compliance with insider trading laws, rules and regulations, as well as NYSE listing standards. Our Insider Trading Compliance Policy prohibits the trading of our securities on the basis of material, non-public information and establishes regular blackout periods wherein certain designated employees are prohibited from trading in our securities. Under our Insider Trading Compliance Policy, we prohibit our employees, including our executive officers and Board members, from hedging the risk associated with ownership of shares of our Common Stock and other securities, as well as from pledging any of our securities as collateral for a loan.

Section 409A of the Code. The Compensation Committee takes into account whether components of the compensation for our executive officers will be adversely impacted by the penalty tax imposed by Section 409A of the Code and aims to structure these components to be compliant with or exempt from Section 409A to avoid such potential adverse tax consequences.

“Golden Parachute” Payments.Sections 280G and 4999 of the Code provide that certain executive officers and other service providers who are highly compensated or hold significant equity interests may be subject to an excise tax if they receive payments or benefits in connection with a change in control of the Company that exceeds certain prescribed limits, and that we, or a successor, may forfeit a tax deduction on the amounts subject to this additional tax. While the Compensation Committee may take the potential forfeiture of such tax deduction into account when making compensation decisions, it will award compensation that it determines to be consistent with the goals of our executive compensation program even if such compensation is not deductible by us. We currently do not provide any tax gross-ups to cover excise taxes under Section 4999 in connection with a change in control.

Accounting for Share-Based Compensation. Following the closing of the business combination, weWe follow Financial Accounting Standard Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic 718, (“ASC Topic 718”), for our
