Credit Agreement and Share Issuance

On December 28, 2020 (the “Closing Date”), Town Sports International Holdings, Inc. (the “Issuer”) entered into a credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with the several lenders party thereto that are investment funds for which for which the Adviser serves as investment manager (the “Lenders”) and Alter Domus (US) LLC, as administrative agent (the “Administrative Agent”) pursuant to which the Lenders agreed to provide senior secured first lien term loans in an aggregate principal amount of up to $100.0 million to the Issuer consisting of (a) initial senior secured first lien term loans in an aggregate principal amount of $5.0 million (the “Initial Loans”), which Initial Loans were drawn at closing, and (b) senior secured first lien delayed draw term loans in an aggregate principal amount of up to $95.0 million (the “Delayed Draw Term Loans” and, together with the Initial Loans, the “Loans”), in each case, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Credit Agreement.  In order to incur any of the Delayed Draw Term Loans, the Issuer must satisfy certain conditions described in the Credit Agreement.

The Issuer’s obligations under the Credit Agreement are guaranteed by certain subsidiaries of the Issuer (collectively with the Issuer, the “Guarantors”).  On the Closing Date, the Issuer, the Guarantors and the Administrative Agent entered into a guarantee and collateral agreement  pursuant to which the Guarantors guaranteed the debt under the Credit Agreement and the Issuer and the Guarantors granted a first-priority lien on substantially all of their assets (subject to certain exceptions) in favor of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders.

On the Closing Date, the Issuer paid in-kind in the form of additional term loans a closing fee equal to $10.0 million, representing 10.0% of the aggregate principal amount of the commitments provided by the Lenders as of the Closing Date. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement accrue interest at a rate of either 10.0% per annum payable in cash or 12.0% per annum payable in-kind. The Credit Agreement contains customary covenants, including, but not limited to, restrictions on the Issuer’s ability to incur indebtedness, grant liens or security interests on assets, make acquisitions, loans, advances or investments, pay dividends, sell or otherwise transfer assets, or enter into transactions with affiliates.  The Credit Agreement will mature on December 28, 2025.

As compensation for the Lenders providing the Loans and related commitments, on the Closing Date, Fitness TSI II received 31,041,265 shares of Common Stock and Fitness TSI received 10,494,218 shares of Common Stock from the Issuer, equal to approximately 51% of the fully diluted outstanding Common Stock as of the Closing Date (such shares, the “Consideration Shares”).

In connection with the transactions described above, Patrick Walsh, the Issuer’s chief executive officer, and the Funds agreed that in the event that the Funds’ ownership of Common Stock decreases below fifty percent (50%) of the issued and outstanding Common Stock as a result of equity awards and other investment rights provided to Mr. Walsh, Mr. Walsh will enter into a customary voting agreement with the Funds with respect to his shares of Common Stock pursuant to which Mr. Walsh would vote in accordance with the direction of the Adviser on behalf of the Funds.

Appointment of Directors

Pursuant to the Credit Agreement, the Issuer and the Board agreed to set the number of directors on the Board at five directors and provide the Reporting Persons with the right to nominate three directors to the Board. As a result, effective concurrently with the closing of the Credit Agreement: (i) the Board increased the size of the Issuer’s Board to five members; (ii) each of Martin Annese and Jeffery Crivello resigned from the Board and any committees of the Board on which they respectively served; and (iii) the remaining members of the Board elected David Chene, Brian Dubin and Doug Logigian as members of the Board to fill the vacancies created by the increase in Board size (with the appointment of Doug Logigian to take effect 10 days after transmission of the Information Statement on Schedule 14f-1 to all holders of Common Stock) and resignation of Martin Annese and Jeffery Crivello to serve until the Issuer’s next annual meeting or their earlier resignation, termination or death. David Chene is a managing member and control person of Kennedy Lewis Management; Brian Dubin is a partner at the Adviser; and Doug Logigian is a partner at the Adviser.

The foregoing description of the Credit Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Credit Agreement, which is incorporated by reference as Exhibit 99.1, and is incorporated herein by reference.

Registration Rights Agreement

In connection with the issuance of the Consideration Shares, on the Closing Date, the Issuer entered into a registration rights agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) with the Funds and Mr. Walsh,  under which the Issuer agreed to register the Common Stock held by the Funds and Mr. Walsh with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The Issuer also agreed to provide certain piggy-back and demand registration rights to the parties to the Registration Rights Agreement in respect of the Common Stock held by each of them.

The foregoing description of the Registration Rights Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Registration Rights Agreement, which is incorporated by reference as Exhibit 99.2, and is incorporated herein by reference.

The Reporting Persons have had discussions with members of the Issuer’s management and members of the Issuer’s Board in connection with the Reporting Persons’ investment in the Issuer and may from time to time have further discussions with directors and officers of the Issuer, or discussions with other stockholders or third parties regarding the Issuer’s business operations, strategies, capital structure and other matters related to the Issuer. These discussions may review options for maximizing stockholder value, improving capital or asset allocation or various strategic alternatives including acquisitions or operational or management initiatives, including one or more items in subsections (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D. The Reporting Persons may, at any time and from time to time, review or reconsider their position and/or change their purpose and/or formulate plans or proposals with respect thereto.

The Reporting Persons intend to review their investment in the Issuer on a continuing basis and may from time to time and at any time in the future depending on various factors, including, without limitation, the outcome of any discussions referenced above, the Issuer’s financial position and strategic direction, price levels of the Issuer’s securities, other investment opportunities available to the Reporting Persons, conditions in the securities market and general economic and industry conditions, take such actions with respect to the investment in the Issuer as they deem appropriate. These actions may include: (i) acquiring additional shares of Common Stock and/or other equity, debt, notes, other securities, or derivative or other instruments that are based upon or relate to the value of securities of the Issuer (collectively, “Securities”) in the open market or otherwise; (ii) disposing of any or all of their Securities in the open market or otherwise; (iii) engaging in any hedging or similar transactions with respect to the Securities; or (iv) proposing or considering one or more of the actions described in subsections (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D.

Item 5 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated as follows:

The disclosure in Item 4 is incorporated herein by reference.

(a) and (b) Items 7 through 11 and 13 of each of the cover pages of this Schedule 13D are incorporated herein by reference. Such information is based on 81,442,123 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of December 28, 2020, based on information received from the Issuer.

The Funds delegated to the Adviser sole voting and investment power over the securities held by the Funds pursuant to Investment Management Agreements. As a result, each of the Adviser, KLM, as the general partner of the Adviser, Kennedy Lewis Management, as the owner of KLM, and Messrs. Richman and Chene, as managing members and control persons of Kennedy Lewis Management, may be deemed to exercise voting and investment power over the shares of Common Stock directly held by the Funds. The Funds specifically disclaim beneficial ownership of the securities of the Issuer directly held by them by virtue of their inability to vote or dispose of such securities as a result of their Investment Management Agreements with the Adviser.

(c) The disclosure in Item 4 is incorporated herein by reference. Except as disclosed herein, there have been no transactions in securities of the Issuer effected by the Reporting Persons during the 60 days prior to the date hereof.

(d) The disclosure regarding the relationship between the Reporting Persons in Item 2(c) of this Schedule 13D is incorporated by reference herein. All securities reported in this Schedule 13D are directly held by the Funds.  The investors in the Funds have the right to participate in the receipt of dividends from, or proceeds from the sale of, the shares of Common Stock held by the Funds in accordance with their respective investment percentages in the Funds.

(e) Not applicable.
