Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On January 29, 2025, Interactive Strength Inc. (the “Company”), as lender, entered into a Loan Agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) with Sportstech Brands Holding GmbH (“Sportstech” or “Borrower”), as borrower. Although the Loan Agreement was entered into on January 27, 2025, it became effective upon the first tranche of $1,122,222 (inclusive of the original issue discount and legal bill deduction) being advanced by the Company to the Borrower on January 29, 2025.

 

The Loan Agreement provides for a $2,250,000 loan facility (the “Loan”) that terminates on April 30, 2025 (the “Termination Date”). The Loan accrues interest at a rate of 10% per annum, subject to adjustment from time to time as set forth in the Note, and has a discount at an amount equal to 10% of the principal amount. The Loan shall be advanced in tranches of no less than $250,000 per tranche. Pursuant to the Loan Agreement, the Borrower has the option, upon delivery of a written request, to extend the term of the Loan for an additional eight-month period, such that the Termination Date will be extended to December 30, 2025.

In connection with the Loan Agreement, the Company, the Borrower, and the sole shareholder of the Borrower (the “Pledgor”) entered into a Share Pledge Agreement on January 27, 2025 (the “Share Pledge Agreement”). Pursuant to the Share Pledge Agreement, the Pledgor has pledged his share interest as collateral to secure the Borrower’s obligations under the Loan Agreement. In addition, on January 27, 2025, the Company, the Borrower and the Pledgor entered into a Suretyship Agreement, pursuant to which the Pledgor has agreed to act as surety for the Borrower’s obligations under the Loan Agreement.

The Loan Agreement contains representations, warranties, and events of defaults customary for this type of facility.

The Company and Sportstech, on December 12, 2024, entered into a non-binding letter of intent and exclusivity agreement for the Company to acquire Sportstech. The proceeds of the Loan Agreement will be used by Sportstech for growth capital and such proceeds are not part of any consideration to be paid by the Company to Sportstech if the parties enter into binding acquisition documents.

The foregoing descriptions do not constitute a complete summary of the terms of the Loan Agreement and the Share Pledge Agreement, and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full texts of the Loan Agreement and the Share Pledge Agreement, which are filed as Exhibit 10.1 and 10.1, respectively, to this Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.
