Explanatory Note

 

This Amendment No. 1 to Schedule 13D (this “Amendment”) amends and supplements the Schedule 13D initially filed by the undersigned on May 12, 2023 (the “Original Schedule 13D” and, together with this Amendment, the “Schedule 13D”) with respect to the shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of Interactive Strength Inc. Capitalized terms used herein and not defined herein have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Original Schedule 13D. This Amendment is being filed to report that, as of the date hereof, by virtue of the issuance of additional shares of Common Stock by the Issuer subsequent to the Original Schedule 13D and not as a result of any transactions by any Reporting Person, the Reporting Persons collectively beneficially own less than 5% of the outstanding Common Stock. The Original Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented as follows and, except as expressly amended below, the Original Schedule 13D remains in full force and effect.

 

Item 2.

Identity and Background.

 

Item 2 of the Original Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

 

This Schedule 13D is being jointly filed by the following persons (each a “Reporting Person” and collectively, the “Reporting Persons”):

 

(i)

block.one, a Cayman Island exempted company, which is principally engaged in making investments in a broad range of assets;

 

(ii)

block.one Investments 1 (“Investments 1”), a Cayman Island exempted company and wholly-owned subsidiary of block.one, which is principally engaged in making investments in a broad range of assets;

 

(iii)

Brendan Francis Blumer, a citizen of Hong Kong and director and shareholder of block.one;

 

(iv)

Andrew Bliss, a citizen of Grenada and director of Investments 1; and

 

(v)

Stephen Ellis, a citizen of New Zealand and director of Investments 1,

 

The principal office and business address for each Reporting Person is c/o Maples Corporate Services Limited, PO Box 309, Ugland House, Grand Cayman, KY1-1104, Cayman Islands.

 

The directors and executive officers of block.one and Investments 1 are named on Exhibit 2 attached hereto.

 

During the past five years, no Reporting Person has been convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors).

 

block.one entered into a settlement order with the Securities and Exchange Commission on September 30, 2019 (Release No. 33-10714). In connection therewith, on September 30, 2019, block.one received a n order granting a waiver of Rule 506(d)(1)(v)(B) and Rule 262(a)(5)(ii) disqualification provisions pursuant to Rule 506(d)(2)(ii) and Rule 262(b)(2) (Release No. 33-10717).

 

During the last five years, no other Reporting Person has been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction and as a result of such proceeding was or is subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws.

 

Item 5.

Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

 

Item 5 of the Original Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

 

The information set forth in Items 2 and 3 of this Schedule 13D and the cover pages of this Schedule 13D is hereby incorporated by reference into this Item 5.

 

(a)

Investments 1 directly owns 84,419 shares of Common Stock, which represents approximately 2.1% of the total number of shares of Common Stock reported to be outstanding by the Issuer to the Reporting Person. Each of block.one, Brendan Francis Blumer, Stephen Ellis and Andrew Bliss beneficially owns 84,419 shares of Common Stock, which represents approximately 2.1% of the total number of shares of Common Stock reported to be outstanding by the Issuer to the Reporting Person.

 

The filing of this Schedule 13D shall not be construed as an admission that any of Messrs. Blumer, Bliss or Ellis is the beneficial owner of any securities covered by this Schedule 13D.

 

(b)

The Reporting Persons have shared voting and dispositive power with respect to all of the shares of the Issuer owned by the Reporting Persons. The information disclosed under Item 5(a) above is hereby incorporated by reference into this Item 5(b).

 

(c)

None of the Reporting Persons has engaged in any transaction with respect to the Common Stock during the sixty days prior to the date of filing of this Schedule 13D.

 

(d)

To the best knowledge of the Reporting Persons, no other person has the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, shares beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons.

 

(e)

By virtue of an increase in the outstanding shares of Common Stock and not as a result of any transaction by any Reporting Person, the Reporting Persons ceased to beneficially own more than 5% of the outstanding Common Stock before August 2, 2024.
