EXPLANATORY STATEMENT
The following constitutes Amendment No. 4 (“Amendment No. 4”) to the initial statement on Schedule 13D, filed on August 5, 2021 (as amended, the “Schedule 13D”) by the undersigned, as amended by the Amendment No. 1 thereto, filed on August 31, 2021, the Amendment No. 2 thereto, filed on February 22, 2023, and the Amendment No. 3 thereto, filed on June 18, 2024. This Amendment No. 4 amends the Schedule 13D as specifically set forth herein. Capitalized terms used in this Amendment No. 4 and not otherwise defined herein have the meanings given to them in the Schedule 13D. The Reporting Persons have also corrected the methodology used to calculate the percentage of shares beneficially owned in this Amendment No. 4.
Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships With Respect to Securities of the Issuer.
Item 6 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended to add the following language:
As previously disclosed in the Schedule 13D filed by the Reporting Persons on August 5, 2021, the Reporting Persons are parties to a Tax Receivable Agreement (the “Tax Receivable Agreement”), which provides for, among other things, payment by the Issuer of 85% of the U.S. federal, state and local income tax or franchise tax savings realized by the Issuer as a result of (i) certain favorable tax attributes Issuer will acquire from certain mergers effected in connection with the Reorganization (including net operating losses and the disappearing entities’ allocable share of existing tax basis), (ii) increases in the Issuer’s allocable share of existing tax basis and tax basis adjustments that may result from (x) certain contributions and certain redemptions, each effected in connection with the Reorganization, (y) future taxable redemptions and exchanges of LLC Units by members of Xponential Holdings (other than the Issuer) and (z) certain payments made under the Tax Receivable Agreement, and (iii) deductions in respect of interest under the Tax Receivable Agreement.
Assignment and Assumption Agreement
As contemplated by the Tax Receivable Agreement, a party to the Tax Receivable Agreement may assign any of its rights under the agreement to any person as long as such transferee has executed and delivered a joinder to the Tax Receivable Agreement, agreeing to become a party to such agreement. On November 15, 2024, the Reporting Persons and BMG Fit, LLC (the “Sellers”) entered into an Assignment and Assumption Agreement (the “Assignment and Assumption Agreement”) with the Parallaxes Xenon, LLC (the “Purchaser”), pursuant to which the Sellers agreed to assign to the Purchaser their interests in, and rights and obligations under, the Tax Receivable Agreement with respect to any and all Common Units or other membership interests in OpCo that were subject to an Exchange prior to the effective date of the Assignment and Assumption Agreement (as such terms are defined in the Tax Receivable Agreement and collectively referred to as the “Transferred Interests”). The above summary is qualified by reference to the complete text of the Assignment and Assumption Agreement, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 8 hereto.
Joinder Agreement
On November 15, 2024, the Issuer and Purchaser entered into a Joinder Agreement (the “Joinder Agreement”) to the Tax Receivable Agreement, pursuant to which the Purchaser acquired from the Sellers the right to receive the Transferred Interests.  The above summary is qualified by reference to the complete text of the Joinder Agreement, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 9 hereto.
