FORM 8-K

Item 1.02 Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement.
The information set forth below in Item 2.01 in this Current Report on Form 8-K is hereby incorporated by reference into this Item 1.02.

Item 1.03 Bankruptcy or Receivership.
The information set forth below in Item 2.01 in this Current Report on Form 8-K is hereby incorporated by reference into this Item 1.03.

Item 2.01 Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.
As previously disclosed, on March 4, 2024, Bowflex, Inc. (the “Company”) and certain of its subsidiaries (together, the “Company Parties”) filed voluntary petitions (the “Bankruptcy Petitions”) for relief under chapter 11 of title 11 of the United States Code 11 U.S.C. §§ 101–1532 (the “Bankruptcy Code”) in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of New Jersey (the “Bankruptcy Court”). The chapter 11 cases for the Company Parties (the “Chapter 11 Cases”) are being jointly administered under the caption In re Bowflex Inc., et al., Case No. 24-12364. Through the Chapter 11 Cases, the Company Parties sought to implement a sale of substantially all of their assets pursuant to Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code.

As previously disclosed, on March 4, 2024, the Company entered into a “stalking horse” asset purchase agreement (the “Asset Purchase Agreement”) with Johnson Health Tech Retail, Inc. to sell the assets of the Company (the “Acquired Assets”) identified in the Asset Purchase Agreement, representing substantially all of the assets of the Company, for a total of $37,500,000 in cash at the closing of the transaction, including a deposit of $3,750,000 paid into an escrow account on March 4, 2024, but less closing adjustment amounts for accounts receivable, inventory and certain transfer taxes. On April 15, 2024, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order authorizing the sale of the Acquired Assets pursuant to the terms of the Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Asset Sale”) and on April 22, 2024, the Asset Sale closed (the “Closing”). There will not be sufficient proceeds from the Asset Sale for common shareholders to receive value for their shares.

On April 22, 2024, proceeds from the Asset Sale were used to repay the Company’s obligations under the existing Term Loan Credit Agreement, dated as of November 30, 2022, as amended, by and among the Company and Nautilus Fitness Canada, Inc., a British Columbia company and subsidiary of the Company, as borrowers, and Crystal Financial LLC d/b/a SLR Credit solutions, as administrative agent and a lender. Immediately upon such repayment, the credit agreement is being terminated.

Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
Effective immediately following the Closing, the following members of the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) resigned as members of the Board: James Barr, IV, Patricia M. Ross, Kelley Hall, and Shailesh Prakash. The resignation of the directors is not because of a disagreement with the Company on any matter relating to the Company’s operations, policies or practices. Anne G. Saunders and Ruby Sharma will remain directors of the Company following the Closing.

James Barr, IV, the Chief Executive Officer of the Company, and Becky L. Alseth, the Chief Marketing Officer of the Company, separated their service with the Company, effective immediately following the Closing, and Aina E. Konold, the Chief Financial Officer of the Company, and John R. Goelz, the Chief Operating Officer of the Company, will separate service with the Company, effective as of May 3, 2024.

Effective immediately following the Closing, Robert D. Hoge, the Company’s existing Director, Intellectual Property Counsel, has been appointed as the General Counsel and Chief Wind-Down Officer (“CWDO”) of the Company. Mr. Hoge will continue to receive his annual salary of $205,000 while serving in these positions. There are no arrangements or understandings between Mr. Hoge and any other person pursuant to which he was appointed to serve as General Counsel and CWDO. Mr. Hoge is not a party to any transaction with the Company that would require disclosure under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.

Item 5.03 Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.

Effective immediately following the Closing, the Board approved an Amendment (the “Amendment”) to the Amended and Restated Bylaws of the Company (as amended, the “Bylaws”) to revise Section 2.2 of the Bylaws to provide that the


number of directors of the Company shall not be less than one director, with the specific number of directors to be set by resolution of the Board. Also effective as of immediately following the Closing, the Board adopted resolutions setting the number of directors of the Board at two directors.

The foregoing description is only a summary of the Amendment to the Bylaws and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Amendment, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 3.01 and is incorporated herein by reference.
