The Beachbody Company, Inc.
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
1. Description of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Business
The Beachbody Company, Inc. (“Beachbody” or the “Company”) is a leading subscription health and wellness company and the creator of some of the world’s most popular fitness programs. The Company’s fitness programs are available for streaming through subscription to the Beachbody On Demand (“BOD”) or Openfit digital platform, and, together with the Company’s live fitness and comprehensive nutrition programs, through subscription to Beachbody On Demand Interactive (“BODi”). Beachbody offers nutritional products such as Shakeology nutrition shakes, BEACHBAR snack bars, and Ladder premium supplements, which have been designed and clinically tested to help customers achieve their goals. Beachbody also offers a professional-grade stationary cycle with a 360-degree touch screen tablet and connected fitness software. The Company’s revenue has historically been generated primarily through a network of micro-influencers (“Coaches”), social media marketing channels, and direct response advertising. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company began the process of consolidating its Openfit streaming fitness offering onto a single Beachbody digital platform. See Note 13, Strategic Realignment, for additional information regarding our strategic realignment initiative.
Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation
The Company prepares its consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) as determined by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) and pursuant to the regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).
The preparation of unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that impact the amounts reported in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Significant estimates include, but are not limited to, the useful life and recoverability of long-lived assets, the recognition and measurement of income tax assets and liabilities, and the net realizable value of inventory. The Company bases these estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that it believes are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgements about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the audited annual consolidated financial statements and, in the opinion of management, include all normal recurring adjustments necessary for the fair statement of the Company’s financial position, results of operations, and cash flows. The financial data and other financial information disclosed in the notes to these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are also unaudited. These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the related notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full fiscal year or any other period.
Summary of Changes in Significant Accounting Estimates
Goodwill and Intangible Assets, Net
During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company determined that one of its acquired trade names no longer has an indefinite life. The Company tested the trade name for impairment before changing the useful life and determined there was no impairment based on its assessment of fair value. The Company will prospectively amortize the trade name over its remaining estimated useful life of two years beginning January 1, 2022. The Company recorded $1.9 million, $0.01 per share, of amortization expense as a component of selling and marketing expenses for this trade name during the three months ended March 31, 2022.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Debt – Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40), to simplify the accounting for certain financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity. The FASB reduced the number of accounting models for convertible debt and convertible preferred stock instruments and made certain disclosure amendments to improve the information provided to users. In addition, the FASB amended the derivative guidance for the “own stock” scope exception and certain aspects of the EPS guidance. The Company adopted this new accounting guidance on January 1, 2022, and the adoption did not have a material effect on its unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.
9
Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-08, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers, which requires an acquirer to apply ASC 606 to recognize and measure contract assets and liabilities from contracts with customers acquired in a business combination on the acquisition date rather than the general guidance in ASC 805. The guidance in this update will be effective for public companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years with early adoption permitted. The Company is evaluating the potential impact of adopting this guidance on its consolidated financial statements.

Fair values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and accrued expenses approximate the recorded value due to the short period of time to maturity. The fair value of the public warrants, which trade in active markets, is based on quoted market prices. The fair value of derivative instruments is based on Level 2 inputs such as observable forward rates, spot rates, and foreign currency exchange rates. The Company’s private placement warrants are classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy because their fair values are based on significant inputs that are unobservable in the market.
Private Placement Warrants
The Company determined the fair value of the private placement warrants using a Black-Scholes option-pricing model and the quoted price of the Company’s Class A Common Stock. Volatility was based on the implied volatility derived from the average of the actual market activity of the Company’s peer group. The expected life was based on the remaining contractual term of the private placement warrants, and the risk-free interest rate was based on the implied yield available on U.S. treasury securities with a maturity equivalent to the warrants’ expected life. The significant unobservable input used in the fair value measurement of the private placement warrants is the implied volatility. Significant changes in the implied volatility would result in a significantly higher or lower fair value measurement, respectively.
The following table presents significant assumptions utilized in the valuation of the private placement warrants on March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021:

13. Strategic Realignment
In January 2022, the Company commenced a strategic alignment initiative to consolidate its streaming fitness offerings into a single Beachbody platform. The Company recognized restructuring costs of $7.2 million during the three months ended March 31, 2022, comprised primarily of termination benefits related to headcount reductions, of which $4.6 million is included in accrued expenses in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. In accordance with GAAP, employee termination benefits were recognized at the date employees were notified and post-employment benefits were accrued as the obligation was probable and estimable. Benefits for employees who provide future service greater than 60 days from the date of notification will be recognized ratably over the future service period.

During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company determined that the useful life of certain computer software and web development assets and content assets would end upon the completion of its platform consolidation. The Company accelerated depreciation of these computer software and web development assets and recorded $2.2 million, or $0.01 per share, of additional depreciation expense as a component of digital cost of revenue, and nutrition and other cost of revenue during the three months ended March 31, 2022. The Company also accelerated amortization of these content assets and recorded $1.1 million, or $0.00 per share, of additional amortization as a component of digital cost of revenue during the three months ended March 31, 2022.

14. Income Taxes
The Company recorded a benefit for income taxes of $0.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and $0.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The effective benefit tax rate was 1.0% for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 1.3% for the three months ended March 31, 2021.
The tax provision for interim periods is determined using an estimate of the Company’s annual effective tax rate, adjusted for discrete items arising in that quarter. The Company’s effective tax rate differs from the U.S. statutory tax rate in the three months ended March 31, 2022 primarily due to changes in valuation allowances on deferred tax assets as it is more likely than not that some or all of the Company’s deferred tax assets will not be realized.
The Company evaluates its tax positions on a quarterly basis and revises its estimate accordingly. There are no material changes to the Company’s uncertain tax positions, interest, or penalties during the three months ended March 31, 2022.

16. Segment Information
The Company applies ASC 280, Segment Reporting, in determining reportable segments for financial statement disclosure. Segment information is presented based on the financial information the Company uses to manage the business which is organized around the Company's digital platforms. The Company has two operating segments, Beachbody and Other, and one reportable segment, Beachbody. The Beachbody segment primarily derives revenue from BOD and BODi digital subscriptions, nutritional products, connected fitness equipment (bikes and accessories), and other fitness-related products. Other derives revenue primarily from Openfit digital subscriptions, nutritional products, and connected fitness equipment. The Company uses contribution as a measure of profit or loss, defined as revenue less directly attributable cost of revenue and certain selling and marketing expenses including media, Coach and social influencer compensation, royalties, and third-party sales commissions. Contribution does not include allocated costs as described below as the CODM does not include these costs in assessing performance. There are no inter-segment transactions. The Company manages its assets on a consolidated basis, and, as such, does not report asset information by segment.
Summary information by segment is as follows (in thousands):

Overview
Beachbody is a leading subscription health and wellness company. We focus primarily on digital content, supplements, connected fitness, and consumer health and wellness. Our goal is to continue to provide holistic health and wellness content and subscription-based solutions. We are the creator of some of the world’s most popular fitness programs, including P90X, Insanity, and 21 Day Fix, which transformed the at-home fitness market and disrupted the global fitness industry by making it accessible for people to get results—anytime, anywhere. Our comprehensive nutrition-first programs, Portion Fix and 2B Mindset, teach healthy eating habits and promote healthy, sustainable weight loss. These fitness and nutrition programs are available through our Beachbody On Demand and Beachbody On Demand Interactive streaming services, and in January 2022, we began the process of consolidating our Openfit streaming fitness offerings onto a single Beachbody platform.
We offer nutritional products such as Shakeology nutrition shakes, BEACHBAR snack bars, and Ladder premium supplements as well a professional-grade stationary cycle with a 360-degree touch screen tablet and connected fitness software. Leveraging our history of fitness content creation, nutrition innovation, and our network of micro-influencers, whom we call Coaches, we plan to continue market penetration into connected fitness to reach a wider health, wellness and fitness audience.
Historically, our revenue has been generated primarily through our network of micro-influencers, social media marketing channels, and direct response advertising. Components of revenue include recurring digital subscription revenue, connected fitness revenue, and revenue from the sale of nutritional and other products. In addition to selling individual products on a one-time basis, we bundle digital and nutritional products together at discounted prices.
For the three months ended March 31, 2022, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021:
See “Non-GAAP Information” below for information regarding our use of Adjusted EBITDA and a reconciliation of net loss to Adjusted EBITDA.

Please see “Non-GAAP Information” below for a reconciliation of net loss to Adjusted EBITDA and an explanation for why we consider Adjusted EBITDA to be a helpful metric for investors.
Digital Subscriptions
Our ability to expand the number of digital subscriptions is an indicator of our market penetration and growth. Digital subscriptions include BOD, BODi, and Openfit subscriptions. Digital subscriptions include paid and free-to-pay subscriptions, with free-to-pay subscriptions representing approximately 1% of total digital subscriptions on average. Digital subscriptions are inclusive of all billing plans, currently for annual, semi-annual, quarterly and monthly billing intervals.
Nutritional Subscriptions
Nutritional subscriptions include monthly subscriptions of nutritional products such as Shakeology, Beachbody Performance, BEACHBAR, Bevvy and Ladder Supplements. We also package and bundle the content experience of digital subscriptions with nutritional subscriptions to optimize customer results.
Average Digital Retention
We use month-over-month digital subscription retention, which we define as the average rate at which a subscription renews for a new billing cycle, to measure customer retention.
Total Streams
We use total streams to quantify the number of fitness or nutrition programs viewed per subscription, which is a leading indicator of customer engagement and retention. While the measure of a digital stream may vary across companies, to qualify as a stream on any of our digital platforms, a program must be viewed for a minimum of 25% of the total running time.
Daily Active Users to Monthly Active Users (DAU/MAU)
We use the ratio of daily active users to monthly active users to measure how frequently digital subscribers are utilizing our service in a given month. We define a daily active user as a unique user streaming content on our platform in a given day. We define a monthly active user as a unique user streaming content on our platform in that same month.
Non-GAAP Information
We use Adjusted EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP performance measure, to supplement our results presented in accordance with GAAP. We believe Adjusted EBITDA is useful in evaluating our operating performance, as it is similar to measures reported by our public competitors and is regularly used by security analysts, institutional investors, and other interested parties in analyzing operating performance and prospects. Adjusted EBITDA is not intended to be a substitute for any GAAP financial measure and, as calculated, may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of performance of other companies in other industries or within the same industry.
We define and calculate Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) adjusted for depreciation and amortization, amortization of capitalized cloud computing implementation costs, amortization of content assets, interest expense, income tax provision (benefit), equity-based compensation, and other items that are not normal, recurring, operating expenses necessary to operate the Company’s business as described in the reconciliation below.
We include this non-GAAP financial measure because it is used by management to evaluate Beachbody’s core operating performance and trends and to make strategic decisions regarding the allocation of capital and new investments. Adjusted EBITDA excludes certain expenses that are required in accordance with GAAP because they are non-cash (for example, in the case of depreciation and amortization, equity-based compensation, and net realizable value adjustment) or are not related to our underlying business performance (for example, in the case of interest income and expense).

Results of Operations
We operate and manage our business in two operating segments, Beachbody and Other. For financial reporting purposes, we have one reportable segment, Beachbody. We identified the reportable segment based on the information used by management to monitor performance and make operating decisions. See Note 16, Segment Information, to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Report for additional information regarding our reportable segment. The following discussion of our results and operations is on a consolidated basis as the Other non-reportable operating segment is not material to the understanding of our business taken as a whole.

Revenue
Revenue includes digital subscriptions, nutritional supplement subscriptions, one-time nutritional sales, connected fitness products, our Coach business management online platform, preferred customer program memberships, and other fitness-related products. Digital subscription revenue is recognized ratably over the subscription period of up to 12 months. We often sell bundled products that combine digital subscriptions, nutritional products, and/or other fitness products. We consider these sales to be revenue arrangements with multiple performance obligations and allocate the transaction price to each performance obligation based on its relative stand-alone selling price. We defer revenue when we receive payments in advance of delivery of products or the performance of services.

The decrease in digital revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2022, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021, was primarily due to $8.7 million of revenue associated with our preferred customer membership program, which is included in nutrition and other revenue since its Q4 2021 launch. Previously, these customers were classified as Coaches and paid for access to our proprietary Coach business management online platform, which was included in digital revenue. The change in digital revenue was also due to a $3.0 million decrease in revenue generated from our Coach business management platform as a result of fewer coaches and a $1.6 million decrease in VIP early access revenue, where subscribers pay for advanced access to programs not yet released to the BOD library.
There was no connected fitness revenue for periods prior to the acquisition of Myx in June 2021.
The decrease in nutrition and other revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2022, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021, was primarily due to $33.8 million decrease in revenue from nutritional products and a $4.5 million decrease in associated shipping revenue as we ended Q1 2022 with 29% fewer nutritional subscriptions compared to Q1 2021. These decreases were partially offset by the additional $8.7 million of revenue associated with our preferred customer membership program, which launched in Q4 2021.

The increase in digital cost of revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2022, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021, was primarily driven by a $3.3 million increase in the amortization of content assets related to BODi which launched in the fourth quarter of 2021 and content acquired from Myx in June 2021. The change in digital cost of revenue was also due to $3.2 million increase in depreciation expense primarily related to a change in useful life of certain assets in connection with our digital platform consolidation. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in variable costs of digital revenue as a result of the decrease in digital revenue. The decrease in digital gross margin for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021 was primarily the result of the deleveraging of higher fixed content assets amortization and depreciation on digital revenue.
There was no connected fitness cost of revenue prior to the acquisition of Myx in June 2021. The negative connected fitness gross margin for the three months ended March 31, 2022 was primarily due to a $14.9 million net realizable value adjustment to inventory, higher product, freight, and shipping costs due to supply chain surcharges and constraints, and lower pricing in line with a highly-competitive connected fitness market. Despite the market pressure and cost inflation we have experienced and which we expect to persist in the near-term, we do not expect the negative connected fitness gross margin to continue in the long-term.
The decrease in nutrition and other cost of revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2022, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021, was primarily due to $11.5 million decrease in product, freight, and shipping expense as the result of the decrease in nutrition and other revenue and a $2.5 million decrease in customer service as nutrition and other comprises less of our revenue. These were partially offset by a $2.1 million increase in depreciation expense. Nutrition and other gross margin decreased primarily as a result of the deleveraging of fixed depreciation expense.
25
Operating Expenses
Selling and Marketing
Selling and marketing expenses primarily include the cost of Coach compensation, advertising, royalties, promotions and events, and third-party sales commissions as well as the related personnel expenses for employees and consultants. Selling and marketing expense as a percentage of total revenue may fluctuate from period to period based on total revenue, timing of new content and nutritional product launches, and the timing of our media investments to build awareness around launch activity.

The decrease in selling and marketing expense for the three months ended March 31, 2022, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021, was primarily due to a $29.7 million decrease in online and television media expense and a $17.3 million decrease in Coach compensation, which was in line with the decrease in commissionable revenue. These decreases were partially offset by a $4.6 million increase in personnel-related expenses, a $2.9 million increase in amortization of intangible assets due to the acquisition of Myx in June 2021, and a $2.7 million increase in costs associated with Coach events.
Selling and marketing expense as a percentage of total revenue decreased by 1050 basis points primarily due to the decrease in media investments compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021. We have reduced our media as part of our strategic realignment and in an effort to use our cash in the manner that has the highest probability of return on investment.
Enterprise Technology and Development
Enterprise technology and development expenses relate primarily to enterprise systems applications, hardware, and software that serve as the technology infrastructure for the Company and are not directly related to services provided or tangible goods sold. This includes maintenance and enhancements of the Company’s enterprise resource planning system, which is the core of our accounting, procurement, supply chain and other business support systems. Enterprise technology and development also includes reporting and business analytics tools, security systems such as identity management and payment card industry compliance, office productivity software, research and development tracking tools, and other non-customer facing applications. Enterprise technology and development expenses include personnel-related expenses for employees and consultants who create improvements to and maintain technology systems and are involved in the research and development of new and existing nutritional products, depreciation of enterprise technology-related assets, software licenses, hosting expenses, and technology equipment leases.

The increase in enterprise technology and development expense for the three months ended March 31, 2022, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021, was primarily due to a $6.2 million increase in personnel-related expenses related to certain technology initiatives.

General and Administrative
General and administrative expense includes personnel-related expenses and facilities-related costs primarily for our executive, finance, accounting, legal and human resources functions. General and administrative expense also includes fees for professional services principally comprised of legal, audit, tax, and insurance.

The increase in general and administrative expense for the three months ended March 31, 2022, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021, was primarily due to a $2.4 million increase in personnel-related expenses ($1.2 million in equity-based compensation and $1.2 million in wages and benefits) and a $1.9 million increase in insurance expense as a result of operating as a public company. These increases were partially offset by a $1.5 million decrease in rent expense due to our Santa Monica lease assignment, $0.6 million decrease in transaction costs as there was no acquisition activity in Q1 2022, and a $0.5 million decrease in recruiting expenses due to fewer headcount additions in Q1 2022.
General and administrative expense as a percentage of total revenue increased by 220 basis points due to the deleveraging of higher fixed costs on revenue.
Restructuring
Restructuring charges relate to our strategic alignment initiative to consolidate our streaming fitness and nutrition offerings into a single Beachbody platform. The charges incurred primarily relate to employee termination costs.

The change in fair value of warrant liabilities of $0.3 million during the three months ended March 31, 2022 primarily resulted from a decline in our stock price from $2.37 to $2.27 during the quarter. The decrease in interest expense was due to no borrowings outstanding during the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to $20.0 million during the three months ended March 31, 2021. The decrease
27
in other income (expense), net was primarily due to the gain on the investment in the convertible instrument from Myx prior to June 25, 2021; there was no similar investment in 2022.
Income Tax Benefit
Income tax benefit consists of income taxes related to U.S. federal and state jurisdictions as well as those foreign jurisdictions where we have business operations.

The income tax benefit increase during the three months ended March 31, 2022, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021, was primarily driven by a change in our projected net deferred tax liabilities which resulted in a higher deferred income tax benefit.

As of March 31, 2022, we had cash and cash equivalents totaling $63.4 million.
Net cash used in operating activities was $33.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to $8.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The increase in cash used in operating activities during the three months ended March 31, 2022, compared to the prior year quarter, was primarily due to the following:
We expect to reduce our cash used in operating activities over the next year. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, we returned to a performance marketing model which drives in-quarter or next-quarter payback and which reduced media spend by approximately $16.5 million in the quarter compared to the prior year. Beginning in the third quarter of 2022, we expect to achieve operating efficiencies and at least $29.0 million in annualized cost savings from the first quarter’s 2022 strategic realignment and restructuring process.
Net cash used in investing activities was $12.4 million and $18.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The decrease was primarily due to a $0.9 million decrease in capital expenditures and a $5.0 million decrease in other investments. We continue to expect lower capital expenditures during the next 12 months compared to prior year due to the completion of significant projects at the end of 2021.
Net cash provided by financing activities was $1.9 million and $17.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The decrease was primarily due to borrowings outstanding on our Credit Facility during the three months ended March 31, 2021; we had no similar debt during the three months ended March 31, 2022.
Our future capital requirements may vary materially from those currently planned and will depend on many factors, including our rate of revenue growth and overall economic conditions. See Note 9, Commitments and Contingencies, for discussion of our contractual commitments and purchase obligations that are primarily due in the next twelve months. We continue to assess and efficiently manage our working capital, and expect to generate additional liquidity through continued cost control initiatives. We are currently exploring
28
additional equity or debt financing to supplement our anticipated working capital balances and further strengthen our financial position, but do not at this time know which form it will take or what the terms will be. The incurrence of debt financing would result in debt service obligations and the instruments governing such debt could provide for operating and financing covenants that would restrict our operations. The sale of additional equity would result in additional dilution to our shareholders. There can be no assurances that we would be able to raise additional capital in amounts or on terms acceptable to us. We believe that existing cash and cash equivalents, cost control initiatives, and access to capital markets will provide the Company with sufficient liquidity to meet our anticipated cash needs for the next twelve months.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
There have been no material changes to the Company’s critical accounting policies and estimates discussed in the 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K in Item 7 under the heading Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
See Note 1, Description of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, of the notes to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Report for recently adopted accounting pronouncements and recently issued accounting pronouncements not yet adopted.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk
Foreign Currency Risk
We are exposed to foreign currency exchange risk related to transactions in currencies other than the U.S. Dollar, which is our functional currency. Our foreign subsidiaries, sales, certain inventory purchases and operating expenses expose us to foreign currency exchange risk. For three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, approximately 10% of our revenue was in foreign currencies. These sales were primarily denominated in Canadian dollars and British pounds.
We use derivative instruments to manage the effects of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates on our net cash flows. We primarily enter into option contracts to hedge forecasted payments, typically for up to 12 months, for cost of revenue, selling and marketing expenses, general and administrative expenses and intercompany transactions not denominated in the local currencies of our foreign operations. We designate some of these instruments as cash flow hedges and record them at fair value as either assets or liabilities within the consolidated balance sheets. Some of these instruments are freestanding derivatives for which hedge accounting does not apply.
Changes in the fair value of cash flow hedges are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) until the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings. Deferred gains and losses associated with cash flow hedges of third-party payments are recognized in cost of revenue, selling and marketing or general and administrative expenses, as applicable, during the period when the hedged underlying transaction affects earnings. Changes in the fair value of certain derivatives for which hedge accounting does not apply are immediately recognized directly in earnings to cost of revenue.
A hypothetical 10% change in exchange rates, with the U.S. dollar as the functional and reporting currency, would not result in a material increase or decrease in cost of revenue and operating expenses due to the derivative instruments we use to hedge any foreign currency exposure.
The aggregate notional amount of foreign exchange derivative instruments at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 was $21.5 million and $30.4 million, respectively.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Management’s Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) as of March 31, 2022. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this report.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during our most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures
Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives, as specified above. Our management recognizes that any control system, no matter how well designed and operated, is based upon certain judgements and assumptions and cannot provide absolute assurance that its objectives will be met.
PART II—OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
We are and, from time to time, we may become, involved in legal proceedings or be subject to claims arising in the ordinary course of our business. There have been no material changes from the information previously reported under Part I, Item 3 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021.

Mr. Marc Suidan
Re: Offer of Employment
Dear Marc:
On behalf of Beachbody, LLC (“Beachbody” or the “Company”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of The Beachbody Company, Inc., I am pleased to offer you employment, on a full-time basis, initially as a Senior Advisor to the Company commencing on April 15, 2022 (the “Start Date”). It is the intention to seek approval from the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) to appoint you as Chief Financial Officer as of May 10, 2022. Your position as CFO would report to the Chief Executive Officer.
Your base salary will be at the annualized rate of $525,000.00 payable in accordance with Beachbody’s regular payroll practices and procedures (“Base Salary”). This is an exempt position under federal and state law.
Once you have met each of the eligibility requirements, you will be entitled to participate in our comprehensive employee benefits package applicable to employees of Beachbody at your level. The terms and conditions of these benefits are set forth in the Beachbody Employee Guide and in summary plan descriptions. Attached is a brief summary of the various plans and benefits currently offered by Beachbody. You will be eligible for health care insurance (medical, dental and vision) for you and your beneficiaries at Beachbody’s expense, plus retirement benefits comparable to other employees of Beachbody at your level, subject to the terms of these plans and programs.
Currently, Beachbody offers a 401(k) savings plan with a 50% match (up to 6% of eligible salary), subject to the terms and conditions of the plan. You will be eligible for health care benefits and the 401(k) savings plan effective on the first day of the month following your Start Date. All of these benefits, and how much Beachbody or Beachbody’s employees pay for them, are subject to change from time to time at Beachbody’s sole discretion.
You will receive a monthly mobile phone allowance of $175.00 as outlined in the Mobile Devices Policy included in the Communication Expenses section of the Company’s Travel & Expense Policy. The allowance is paid automatically on the second paycheck of each month and will be included in your taxable wages.
You are eligible to participate in Beachbody’s 2022 Bonus Plan for Exempt Employees (“BPE”). Your target opportunity is 75% of your annual Base Salary (“Target Bonus”), pro-rated for your actual time employed by the Company during the calendar year, and you must be employed at Beachbody on the date the incentive is paid (if any) in order to receive an award. The terms of the BPE are reviewed annually and will be communicated to you once they have been approved.
You will be granted non-qualified stock options with a fair market value on the date of grant (in accordance with the Black-Scholes methodology as determined by the Board of Directors) of approximately $1,000,000.00. You will also be granted Restricted Stock Units (“RSUs”) with a fair market value on the date of grant of $1,000,000.00, in each case, on or as soon as reasonably practicable

following the Start Date, subject to approval by the Board (or a subcommittee thereof). The non-qualified
options and the RSUs will be granted pursuant to and will be subject to the terms of Beachbody's 2021 Incentive Award Plan (the “Plan”), and to the terms of Beachbody’s then-current applicable form equity agreement, as of the “Grant Date”, which shall be defined as the earliest 15th day of a calendar month to occur on or after your Start Date (unless the New York Stock Exchange is closed on such 15th of the month, in which case the Grant Date will be the first trading date following the 15th). The non-qualified options and the RSUs granted will vest annually over four years (in equal installments of 25% each year over four years) on your Grant Date, with the initial 25% vesting twelve (12) months after your Grant Date. All vesting shall cease upon any termination of your employment. Should Beachbody implement an annual long-term incentive plan, you will be eligible to receive additional equity grants beginning in calendar year 2023 or at such later time that the plan is implemented.
If your employment is terminated after the Start Date (a) by Beachbody without Cause, or (b) by you for Good Reason, then Beachbody will 1) pay you an amount equal to 1.0 times your highest agreed upon annual Base Salary with the Company, unless a reduction in your Base Salary had been implemented during the year which was applied proportionately to other members of the Company’s executive team, in which case Beachbody will pay you an amount equal to 1.0 times your annual Base Salary at the date of termination, (the “Severance”); 2) make its normal portion of your monthly health insurance payments at your then-current coverage levels (including reimbursement for any required COBRA payments) for a period of twelve (12) months; and 3) pay you an amount equal to a pro rata portion of your Target Bonus for such partial calendar year in which the date of termination occurs, through the date of termination (“Pro-Rated Target Bonus”). The Severance and the Pro-Rated Target Bonus shall be fixed and paid to you in substantially equal installments in accordance with the Company’s normal payroll practices over the 12‑month period following your termination date, but shall commence on the first normal payroll date following the date the Release (as defined below) becomes irrevocable (the “Release Effective Date”) and amounts otherwise payable prior to such first payroll date shall be paid on such date without interest thereon.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, any severance payments and benefits (including, for clarity, any acceleration of vesting for Time Vesting Awards (described below)) will be conditioned upon your (or your estate’s) timely execution and non-revocation of Beachbody’s standard general release of all claims against Beachbody and related entities and persons (the “Release”). For the avoidance of doubt, all equity awards eligible for accelerated vesting pursuant to this letter shall remain outstanding and eligible to vest following the date of termination and shall actually vest and become exercisable (if applicable) and non-forfeitable upon the Release Effective Date.
In the event of a qualified termination leading to Severance, all outstanding Company equity awards that vest solely on the passage of time that are held by you on the date of such termination (the “Time Vesting Awards”) shall vest and, to the extent applicable, become exercisable, on an accelerated basis as of the date of termination with respect to the number of shares underlying such Time-Vesting Award that would
have vested (and become exercisable, if applicable) had you remained in continuous employment with the Company beyond the date of termination for twelve (12) additional months. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the qualifying termination occurs on or within twelve (12) months following a Change in Control (as such term is defined in the Plan), then all Time Vesting Awards shall become fully vested and, to the extent applicable, exercisable.
If your employment is terminated after the Start Date by reason of your death or Disability (as such term is defined in the Plan), then in addition to any unpaid accrued obligations (i) the Company will pay you the Prorated Target Bonus in accordance with the terms and conditions of this offer letter, and (ii) all
Marc Suidan
Offer of Employment

Time Vesting Awards shall vest and, to the extent applicable, become exercisable, on an accelerated basis
as of the date of termination with respect to the number of shares underlying such Time-Vesting Award that would have vested (and become exercisable, if applicable) had you remained in continuous employment with the Company beyond the date of termination for twelve (12) additional months.
“Cause” means: (i) your misconduct or intentional actions that adversely affects or threatens to adversely affect the Company or its reputation in any material respect as determined in good faith by the Board; (ii) acts or threats of violence by you in any manner affecting the Company’s reputation or otherwise connected to your employment in any way; (iii) alcohol or substance abuse by you; (iv) your wrongful destruction of Company property; (v) any crime involving fraud, embezzlement, theft, conversion or dishonesty against the Company; or any conviction, or plea of guilty or nolo contendere, in a valid court of law for any other financial crime or felony; (vi) any act of fraud or personal dishonesty by you which relates to or involves the Company in any material way, including misrepresentation on your employment application or other materials provided in the course of seeking employment (or continued employment) at the Company; (vii) unauthorized disclosure by you of confidential information of the Company; (viii) material violation by you of any written policy of the Company; or (ix) gross negligence of, or gross incompetence in, the performance of the your duties for the Company as determined in good faith by the Board.
“Good Reason” means, without your written consent: (i) a material breach of this offer letter by the Company (including the Company’s withholding or failure to pay compensation when due to you); (ii) a relocation of the Company’s principal headquarters from the greater Los Angeles metropolitan area to a location more than 50 miles from such location; (ii) a material diminution in your titles, duties, authority, or responsibilities or a change in reporting relationship that requires you to report to someone other than the CEO or the Board; or (iii) a material reduction in your Base Salary or Target Bonus, unless either such reduction is applied proportionately to other members of the Company’s executive team, and is made in the good faith belief by the Board that it is in the best interests of the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, you will not be deemed to have resigned for Good Reason unless (1) you provide the Company with written notice setting forth in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances claimed by you to constitute Good Reason within 45 days after the date of the occurrence of any event that you know or should reasonably have known to constitute Good Reason, (2) the Company fails to cure such acts or omissions within 30 days following its receipt of such notice, and (3) the effective date of your termination for Good Reason occurs no later than 90 days after the expiration of the Company’s cure period. For clarity, Good Reason shall not have occurred if the Company’s primary El Segundo, California office is moved or relocated within the greater Westside and/or South Bay Los Angeles metropolitan areas and/or the Company permits you to work from home or another physical or remote location that you may designate in writing.
All payments to you under this offer letter will be subject to any required withholding of federal, state and local taxes pursuant to any applicable law or regulation and the Company and its affiliates are entitled to withholding any and all such taxes from amounts payable under this offer letter.
For purposes of this letter, your termination of employment shall mean your “separation from service” as defined under Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (as amended, the “Code”). Each payment under this letter that is determined to be subject to Section 409A shall be treated as a separate payment. In no event may you, directly or indirectly, designate the calendar year of any payment to be made under this offer letter. Notwithstanding any provision of this letter to the contrary, if you are a “specified employee” (as defined in Section 409A of the Code) as of your ”separation from service” (as defined in Section 409A of the Code), then the payment of any amounts payable hereunder that are subject to Section 409A of the Code shall be postponed in compliance with Section 409A (without any

reduction in such payments ultimately paid or provided to you) until the first payroll date that occurs after the date that is six (6) months following your “separation from service.” Any such postponed payment shall be paid in a lump sum to you on the first payroll date that occurs after the date that is six (6) months following your “separation from service.” If you die during the postponement period prior to the payment of the postponed amount, the amounts withheld on account of Section 409A shall be paid to your estate within sixty (60) days after the date of your death. Any payments subject to Section 409A that are subject to execution of a waiver and release which may be executed and/or revoked in a calendar year following the calendar year in which the payment event (such as termination of employment) occurs shall commence payment only in the calendar year in which the consideration period or, if applicable, release revocation period ends, as necessary to comply with Section 409A.
This offer of employment, and your continued employment at Beachbody, is contingent upon the satisfactory completion of reference/background checks. In addition, as a condition of employment, you will be required to execute a Confidentiality and Non-Solicitation Agreement and a Dispute Resolution Agreement.
This offer letter does not constitute an employment agreement for a specified term. Your employment with Beachbody, like our other employees, will be “at-will,” permitting you or Beachbody to terminate the employment relationship at any time, for any lawful reason, with or without Cause or prior notice. Your at-will status can only be modified in writing and signed by both you and the Chief Executive Officer. By your signature on this letter, you acknowledge, understand and agree that the employment relationship is at-will.
This letter will be governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of California, without regard to the conflict of law rules thereof.

Re: Separation and General Release Agreement
Dear Sue:
Based on your discussions with Carl Daikeler and Ben Van de Bunt on Thursday, April 14th, this letter is to confirm that, effective as of May 31, 2022 (the “Separation Date”), your employment with Beachbody, LLC and its parent, The Beachbody Company, Inc. (together, “Beachbody” or the “Company”) will be terminated by mutual agreement. All terms not defined herein shall have the same meaning given to them in your employment agreement with the Company, effective June 25, 2021 (“Employment Agreement”). Commencing on June 1, 2022, you will transition to be a consultant of the Company through May 31, 2023 and, during this period, you will provide consulting services to the Company (the “Consulting Services”), pursuant to an independent contractor agreement attached hereto to be signed by you and the Company.
Section 4 of your Employment Agreement (as revised by this letter) provides for certain severance payments if you are terminated without Cause by the Company, including (A) twelve (12) months of base salary, paid out over time (as set forth below) (the “Severance”); (B) Company-subsidized healthcare coverage at the same levels as in effect on the date of termination for twelve (12) months following the Separation Date; and (C) your Prorated Target Bonus from the beginning of the calendar year through the Separation Date (collectively, the “Severance Benefits”); provided, in each instance, you enter into the general release in substantially the form attached as Exhibit A to your Employment Agreement (and attached for your signature hereto as of the Separation Date) (the “Release”).
As such, if you remain in continued employment with the Company on the terms set forth herein through the Separation Date and execute (as of, and no sooner than, the Separation Date), do not revoke, and abide by the attached Release and the terms of this letter, (i) the Company will pay you the Severance Benefits, less applicable state and federal withholdings and any other withholdings required by law or authorized in writing by you, in accordance with the Employment Agreement; and (ii) each Company stock option held by you shall remain outstanding and eligible to vest based on your continued Consulting Services. With respect to the Severance, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Employment Agreement, the Company will pay to you Six Hundred Thousand Dollars (US$600,000) in installments to occur on regular payroll dates over a period of twelve (12) months from your Separation Date. These Severance payments will begin on the first payroll date that occurs following the date on which the Release becomes effective. For clarity, you will not be entitled to the accelerated vesting set forth in Section 4(b)(iv) of your Employment Agreement.
In addition, your Prorated Target Bonus shall be paid on the date on which annual bonuses are paid to the Company’s senior executives generally for the applicable year, but no later than March 15, 2023.
This also confirms that if you are insured under the Company’s group insurance plans, you and your eligible dependents will receive your COBRA notice under separate cover mailed directly to the residential address you have on file with Beachbody (if you need to update this address for yourself or your insured dependents, please let us know as soon as possible).
Your role as CFO and President will be transitioned by the Board as of May 10, 2022, unless otherwise determined by the Company in its sole discretion. It is our mutual expectation that you will continue to perform
April 15, 2022
Page 2
all the roles of the Company’s CFO until that time, and then will serve in an advisory capacity to assist management, your successor and the finance team on a full time basis through the Separation Date. For the avoidance of doubt, from the date hereof through and including the Separation Date, you will continue to be paid your base salary as in effect on the date hereof.
In consideration of the Severance Benefits, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, you hereby acknowledge and agree that you shall continue to be bound by the Restrictive Covenants and Arbitration Agreement, in accordance with Sections 7 and 12(i) of the Employment Agreement, respectively, each of which shall (subject to their applicable terms and conditions) survive the termination of your employment and shall remain in full force and effect. Upon signing of this agreement and upon receipt of proper documentation showing attorneys’ fees incurred, the Company will make a one-time lump sum payment to you in the gross amount of up to $5,000 to reimburse Employee for out of pocket costs incurred to engage legal counsel for purposes of this agreement.
This letter will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California without regard to the conflicts of law provisions thereof. So that we may make the proper disclosures with the SEC and file our press release on a timely basis, please acknowledge your understanding and agreement of the matters by countersigning below by 1pm on Tuesday, April 19th, and do not hesitate to (or have your attorney) contact me if you have any questions or comments.
Sincerely,
/Blake T. Bilstad/

INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR SERVICES AGREEMENT
THIS INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR SERVICES AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”) is entered into as of the 1st day of June, 2022 (the “Effective Date”) by and between Beachbody, LLC, a
Delaware limited liability company with its headquarters located at 400 Continental Blvd, Suite 400, El Segundo, CA 90245 (“Company” or “Beachbody”) and Sue Collyns, an individual (“Contractor”).
2. Compensation.
(a) Compensation. In consideration for the Services provided by Contractor, Company shall pay to Contractor the fees as set forth in the applicable Statement of Work (the “Compensation”). For any fees due as Contractor’s Compensation, Contractor shall provide Company a written invoice at the conclusion of each month, detailing the Compensation due in accordance with this Agreement for the prior monthly period. Company shall pay each undisputed invoice within thirty (30) days of its actual receipt of such invoice. If required as a matter of law, the parties agree to add an appropriate surcharge related to Contractor’s health insurance status under the Affordable Care Act and any related legislation and/or regulations. This surcharge will be reflected as a specific line item added to each Contractor invoice sent to the Company. Contractor is not eligible for health insurance and other benefits that Company provides to its employees, since Contractor’s relationship with Company is that of an independent contractor and not an employee. However, Contractor will be eligible for continued health benefits pursuant to COBRA as a former employee of Company. Contractor shall be considered in continuous service of the Company pursuant to this Agreement and , and any Time Vesting Awards (as defined in the Employment Agreement) held by Contractor as of the Effective Date shall continue to vest and become exercisable during the term of this Agreement based on Contractor’s continued service (rather than employment). Exercisability of any vested Time Vesting Awards shall continue for ninety (90) days after Contractor ceases to be a Service Provider under this Agreement (also in accordance with the Plan and the terms of the Time Vesting Awards).
(b) Contractor Expenses. Contractor agrees that unless pre-approved by Company in writing, all costs and expenses incurred by Contractor in connection with the performance of its Services hereunder shall be at Contractor’s own expense and without cost or charge to the Company. Contractor expressly understands and agrees that except as set forth in this Section 2, Contractor shall not be entitled to receive any other forms of payment, bonuses, benefits or compensation without Company’s prior written consent.
3. Representations, Warranties and Covenants.
(a) Contractor. Contractor represents, warrants and covenants that: (i) all of the Services will be performed and rendered using sound, professional practices and in a competent and professional manner; (ii) the Services and Deliverables created or provided by Contractor (including, without limitation, any materials developed by Contractor) shall be unique,
proprietary and not infringe any intellectual property, personal, or other proprietary rights of any third party; (iii) Contractor has the full authority to enter into this Agreement; Contractor has the right to grant the rights set forth in this Agreement and entering into this Agreement does not violate or conflict with any prior agreements with or other obligations to any third parties; (iv) Contractor is the owner of or otherwise has the right to use and distribute all materials and any third party products used by Contractor or provided to Company in connection with providing the Services to Company; (v) Contractor will comply with all applicable international, federal, state and local laws in the performance of this Agreement; and (vi) Contractor has not engaged in any activity, made any commitment, or entered into any agreement inconsistent or in derogation of the rights granted in this Agreement, and it will not engage in any activity, make any commitment or enter into any agreement inconsistent or in derogation of the rights granted in this Agreement.

Company therefore expects our vendors and suppliers to maintain high standards in line with these standards and have detailed these expectations in Company’s Supplier Code (https://www.beachbody.com/product/about_us/supplier_code.do). Contractor understands that compliance with this Supplier Code is expressly integrated into this Agreement, and any breach of the Supplier Code will be deemed a material breach of this Agreement.

4. Confidential Information.
(a) Definitions. “Proprietary Information” is all information and any idea in whatever form, tangible or intangible, pertaining in any manner to the business of Company, which was produced or acquired by Company. All Proprietary Information not generally known outside of Company’s organization, and all Proprietary Information so known only through improper means, shall be deemed “Confidential Information.” By example and without limiting the foregoing definition, Proprietary and Confidential Information shall include, but not be limited to, Company’s:
i. information about customers, contracts, sales, distributors, suppliers, costs, profits, gross margins, and, generally, Company’s goodwill with its customers;

vi. compilations or lists containing any of the above.
Confidential Information is to be broadly defined, and includes, without limitation, all information that has or could have commercial value or other utility in the business in which Company is engaged or contemplates engaging, and all information of which the unauthorized disclosure could be detrimental to the interests of Company, whether or not such information is identified as Confidential Information by Company. This obligation does not apply to information that is already in the public domain through no breach of confidentiality or that is required to be disclosed pursuant to applicable law, court order, judicial proceeding, information that is disclosed to the public through no fault of recipient or its agents acting on its behalf hereunder, information that is disclosed to Contractor by a third party not under confidentiality obligation or is independently developed without use of Company’s Confidential Information.
(b) Existence of Confidential Information. Company owns and has developed and compiled, and will develop and compile, certain trade secrets, proprietary techniques and other Confidential Information which have great value to its business. This Confidential Information includes not only information disclosed by Company to Contractor, but also information developed or learned by Contractor during the course of its association with Company.
(c) Protection of Confidential Information. Contractor will not, directly or indirectly, use, make available, sell, disclose or otherwise communicate to any third party, other than in regard to duties that arise in connection with Contractor’s association with Company, any of Company’s Confidential Information, either during or after Contractor’s association with Company. Contractor acknowledges that it is aware that the unauthorized disclosure of Confidential Information of Company may be highly prejudicial to Company’s interests, an invasion of privacy, and an improper disclosure of trade secrets.
(d) Delivery of Confidential Information. Upon request or when Contractor’s association with Company ends, Contractor will immediately deliver to Company all copies of any and all materials and writings received from, created for, or belonging to Company including, but not limited to, those which relate to or contain Confidential Information.
(e) Prior Actions and Knowledge. Contractor represents and warrants that from the time of its first contact with Company through the start of its association with Company, it has held in strict confidence all Confidential Information and has not disclosed any Confidential Information, directly or indirectly, to anyone outside the Company, or used, copied, published, or summarized any Confidential Information, except to the extent otherwise permitted in this Agreement.
(f) Third-Party Information. Contractor acknowledges that Company has received and in the future will receive from third parties their confidential information subject to a duty on Company’s part to maintain the confidentiality of such information and to use it only for certain limited purposes. Contractor agrees that, during its association with Company and thereafter, it will hold all such confidential information in the strictest confidence and will not disclose or use it, except as necessary to perform its obligations hereunder and as is consistent with Company’s agreement with such third parties or applicable law.
(g) Third Parties. Contractor will not disclose to Company or use on its behalf any confidential information belonging to others (except for appropriate third party information under Section 4 (f) above) and Contractor will not bring onto the premises of Company any confidential information belonging to any such party unless consented to in writing by such party.
(h) Public Announcement. Contractor agrees that, unless approved by Company in advance, Contractor shall not make any public announcement, issue any press release or other publicity or confirm any statements by third parties concerning the transactions contemplated hereby or Contractor’s rights or obligations hereunder, except as otherwise required by law.
(i) Exceptions. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or the Restrictive Covenants (as defined in the Employment Agreement) to the contrary, nothing contained in this Agreement shall prohibit either party (or either party’s attorney(s)) from (i) filing a charge with, reporting possible violations of federal law or regulation to, participating in any investigation by, or cooperating with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, the National Labor Relations Board, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration, the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission, the U.S. Department of Justice or any other securities regulatory agency, self-regulatory authority or federal, state or local regulatory authority (collectively, “Government Agencies”), or making other disclosures that are protected under the whistleblower provisions of applicable law or regulation, (ii) communicating directly with, cooperating with, or providing information (including trade secrets) in confidence to any Government Agencies for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law, or from providing such information to such party’s attorney(s) or in a sealed complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or other governmental proceeding, and/or (iii) receiving an award for information provided to any Government Agency. Pursuant to 18 USC Section 1833(b), (1) Contractor will not be held criminally or civilly liable under any federal or state trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret that is made: (x) in confidence to a federal, state, or local government official, either directly or indirectly, or to an attorney, and solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law; or (y) in a complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, if such filing is made under seal and (2) Contractor acknowledges that an individual who files a lawsuit for retaliation by an employer for reporting a suspected violation of law may disclose the trade secret to the attorney of the individual and use the trade secret information in the court proceeding, if the individual files any document containing the trade secret under seal and does not disclose the trade secret, except pursuant to court order. Further, nothing in this Agreement is intended to or shall preclude either party from providing truthful testimony in response to a valid subpoena, court order, regulatory request or other judicial, administrative
or legal process or otherwise as required by law. If Contractor is required to provide testimony, then unless otherwise directed or requested by a Government Agency or law enforcement, Contractor shall notify Company as soon as reasonably practicable after receiving any such request of the anticipated testimony. Nothing in this Agreement prevents Contractor from discussing or disclosing information about unlawful acts in the workplace, such as harassment or discrimination or any other conduct that the undersigned has reason to believe is unlawful.
5. Ownership. Company Materials. Contractor acknowledges that Company is and at all times will be the sole owner of: (i) all trademarks, trade names, logos, symbols, other indicia of origin, designs, patents, advertising and promotional materials, other copyright protected materials, inventions, trade secrets, and other intellectual property or proprietary information Company owns and/or uses on or in connection with its products, services and/or business, and (ii) the Deliverables (defined below), financial information, data, requirements, records, information or materials of Company and/or its agents or affiliates (including contracts, documents, distributor and affiliate information, content, and other materials) that Contractor has had or may have access to during this Agreement or otherwise (collectively, “Company Materials”). Contractor agrees that: (iii) it will do nothing inconsistent with Company’s sole and exclusive ownership of the Company Materials; (iv) it will provide adequate security measures and safeguards to ensure there is no destruction, loss or disclosure of any Company Materials; and (v) it will in no manner use, alter, modify, store, transmit, display, make derivative works of, or in any other manner exploit any Company Materials (including without limitation any Company names, slogans or trademarks) except as expressly authorized herein, or in any manner following expiration or termination of this Agreement. Contractor agrees that it gains no rights or interest whatsoever in or to any Company Materials and/or any goodwill associated therewith.
(b) Works for Hire. It is the intent of the parties that Company own all right, title, and interest in and to the Services, including any information, plans, designs, creations, inventions, files, content, code, documentation, Intellectual Property or other materials provided by Company or created or provided by Contractor in fulfillment of this Agreement (“Deliverables”). To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, all of the Deliverables developed and provided by Contractor, including as arising from or related to the Services, shall constitute a “Work for Hire” under Section 201 of Title 17 of the United States Code, and Company shall own all right, title, and interest in and to such Deliverables. In the event that any Deliverables are deemed by a court of competent jurisdiction not to be a Work for Hire, this Agreement shall operate as an irrevocable assignment by Contractor to Company of all right, title, and interest in and to such Deliverables, and/or its license(s) thereto. Contractor will not grant, nor claim for itself or other affiliated entities, independent contractors, employees, or other third parties, either expressly or impliedly, any rights, title, interest, or licenses to the Deliverables. Contractor further waives any claims of “moral rights” in the Deliverables. Contractor agrees to execute any documents and other papers and perform any further acts as may be reasonably required or desirable to carry out the provisions of this section, including, without limitation, the execution and delivery of any additional bills of sale, endorsements, assignments, and other good and sufficient instruments of conveyance, transfer and assignment. If Contractor fails or refuses to execute and deliver any such separate assignments or any such additional documents or instruments implementing such intellectual property rights set forth herein within thirty (30) days after Company’s written request therefor, Company shall have and is hereby granted the right and authority to execute the same in Contractor’s name, place and stead and as Contractor’s attorney-in-fact for such purposes, which power is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable.
6. Term and Termination. The term of this Agreement shall commence as of the Effective Date and shall continue until the Services are completed or earlier terminated: (a) by both parties in writing; or (b) by Contractor if Company fails to pay any amounts due under this Agreement as set forth in Section 2 above, and such default is not cured within thirty (30) days after Company receives written notice of the default from Contractor. Upon expiration or termination of this Agreement: (i) Contractor shall immediately, as directed by Company, return all Confidential Information and Company Materials in its possession to Company; (ii) Contractor shall promptly provide to Company any Deliverables, materials, and documentation necessary to fulfill the assignment set forth in Section 5; and (iii) Company shall pay to Contractor any and all amounts due for any completed Services.

(c) Limitations of Liability. COMPANY SHALL NOT HAVE ANY LIABILITY TO CONTRACTOR OR TO ANY THIRD PARTY, FOR ANY CAUSE OF ACTION RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT FOR ANY INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, SPECIAL OR SPECULATIVE DAMAGES BASED UPON A CLAIM OF ANY TYPE OR NATURE (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO CONTRACT, TORT INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE, WARRANTY OR STRICT LIABILITY), OR CLAIMS ARISING FROM THE TERMINATION OF THIS AGREEMENT, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF INCOME, PROFITS OR USE, BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, OR LOSS OF GOODWILL, IRRESPECTIVE OF WHETHER COMPANY HAS ADVANCE NOTICE OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
(d) Breach. Contractor acknowledges and agrees that if Company fails to make any of the payments to Contractor provided for herein, or if Company breaches any other covenant or condition hereof, Contractor’s sole remedy will be an action at law to recover such payment and/or monetary damages.

Nothing in this Agreement is intended to suppress or limit Contractor’s right to testify in any administrative, legislative or judicial forum about alleged criminal conduct or sexual harassment, or to prevent the disclosure of factual information related to

All such discrimination and harassment is prohibited. It also prohibits discrimination or harassment based on the perception that anyone has any of those characteristics or is associated with a person who has or is perceived as having any of those characteristics.
9. General.
(a) Independent Contractors. It is expressly agreed and intended that each party hereto shall remain a separate legal entity from the other and each shall be an independent contractor responsible only for such party’s own actions. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed as establishing an employer/employee, partnership, agency or joint venture relationship between the parties hereto. Contractor shall not have, or represent itself as having, the authority to bind or commit Company in any way, or to incur any liability in the name of or on behalf of Company. Contractor shall be solely responsible for payment of all of Contractor’s own taxes on compensation received by Contractor under or relating to this Agreement. Except as expressly contemplated by this Agreement, Company shall not be obligated to (a) pay on the account of Contractor any unemployment tax or other taxes required under the law to be paid with respect to employees, (b) withhold any monies from the fees of Contractor for income tax purposes or (c) provide Contractor with any benefits, including without limitation health, welfare, pension, retirement, or any kind of insurance benefits, including workers’ compensation insurance. Contractor also will take all necessary steps to ensure that it acts as an independent contractor rather than an employee, including taking such actions as procuring any appropriate business or professional license, establishing tax identification numbers and paying for any costs associated with such licensing and tax status. The Company does not seek to engage Contractor in an exclusive relationship and is aware that Contractor is free to do work for other organizations.
(b) Severability; Waiver. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable for any reason or in any respect whatsoever, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provisions of this Agreement, and this Agreement shall be construed as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein. The parties hereby agree, however, to agree upon an equitable amendment of this Agreement if a substantive provision is affected. The waiver by any party hereto of any breach or default shall not constitute a waiver of any different or subsequent breach or default. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement shall be effective unless stated in writing and signed by authorized members of all parties.
(c) Notices. All notices, requests, demands and other communications given or made pursuant to this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed received (i) on the same day if delivered in person, by same-day courier or by facsimile transmission; provided that if sent by facsimile transmission, a copy is also sent by certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, (ii) on the next day if delivered by overnight mail or courier, or (iii) three (3) business days after the date of deposit in the mails if being sent by certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, to the parties at their addresses as set forth at the beginning of this Agreement with a copy to Company’s Chief Legal Officer.
