PROXY STATEMENT

FOR ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS

April 30, 2020

INTRODUCTION

This Proxy Statement provides information for stockholders of Planet Fitness, Inc. (“we,” “us,” “our,” “Planet Fitness” and the “Company”), as part of the solicitation of proxies by the Company and its board of directors (the “Board”) from holders of the outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, for use at the Company’s annual meeting of stockholders to be held at the offices of Ropes & Gray LLP, Prudential Tower, 800 Boylston Street, Boston, MA 02199 at 2:00 p.m. Eastern Time on April 30, 2020, and at any adjournments or postponements thereof (the “Annual Meeting”).

At the Annual Meeting, stockholders will be asked to vote either directly or by proxy on the following matters discussed herein:



1.	Election of the two director nominees named in the Proxy Statement to serve until the 2023 annual meeting of stockholders;



2.	Ratification of the appointment of KPMG LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for 2020;



3.	Approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers; and



4.	Transact such other business as may properly come before the meeting or any adjournment thereof.

A Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials (the “Notice”) containing instructions on how to access our proxy materials, including this Proxy Statement and our 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K, is being mailed to stockholders on or about March 20, 2020. The Notice also provides instructions on how to vote over the Internet, by phone or by mail. If you receive a Notice by mail, you will not receive printed and mailed proxy materials unless you specifically request them.

INFORMATION ABOUT THE ANNUAL MEETING AND VOTING

We include this Q&A section to provide some background information and brief answers to several questions you might have about the Annual Meeting. We encourage you to read the enclosed Proxy Statement in its entirety.

Why are we providing these materials?

Our Board is providing these materials to you in connection with our Annual Meeting, which will take place on Thursday, April 30, 2020 at the offices of Ropes & Gray LLP, Prudential Tower, 800 Boylston Street, Boston, MA 02199 beginning at 2:00 p.m. Eastern Time. Stockholders are invited to participate in the Annual Meeting and are requested to vote on the proposals described herein.

In the event it is not possible or advisable to hold our Annual Meeting in person due to the coronavirus outbreak (COVID 19), we will announce alternative arrangements for the meeting as promptly as practicable, which may include holding a virtual shareholder meeting. Please be sure to retain the control number listed on your voting instruction card in order to verify your identity in the event we hold a virtual shareholder meeting.

What information is contained in this Proxy Statement?

This Proxy Statement contains information relating to the proposals to be voted on at the Annual Meeting, the voting process, the compensation of our directors and most highly paid officers, and other required information.

What proposals will be voted on at the Annual Meeting?

There are three proposals scheduled to be voted on at the Annual Meeting:


•	Elect the two director nominees named in this Proxy Statement to serve until the 2023 annual meeting of stockholders;


•	Ratify the appointment of KPMG LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for 2020; and


•	Approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation of our named executive officers.

We will also consider other business that properly comes before the Annual Meeting.

What shares can I vote?

You may vote all shares of common stock that you owned as of the close of business on the record date, March 3, 2020. You may cast one vote per share, including shares (i) held directly in your name as the stockholder of record and (ii) held for you as the beneficial owner through a stockbroker, bank, or other nominee. The proxy card will indicate the number of shares.

As of March 3, 2020, there were 79,897,165 shares of Class A common stock outstanding and 6,532,170 shares of Class B common stock outstanding, all of which are entitled to be voted at the Annual Meeting.

A list of stockholders will be available at our headquarters at 4 Liberty Lane West, Hampton, New Hampshire 03842 for a period of at least ten days prior to the Annual Meeting and at the Annual Meeting itself for examination by any stockholder.

What are the voting rights of stockholders?

Each share of our common stock is entitled to one vote. There is no cumulative voting.

What is the difference between being a stockholder of record and a beneficial owner?

Many of our stockholders hold their shares through stockbrokers, banks, or other nominees, rather than directly in their own names. As summarized below, there are some differences between being a stockholder of record and a beneficial owner.

Stockholder of record : If your shares are registered directly in your name with our transfer agent, American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC, you are the stockholder of record, and these proxy materials are being sent directly to you. As the stockholder of record, you have the right to grant your voting proxy directly to the individuals named on the proxy card or to vote at the Annual Meeting.

Beneficial owner : If your shares are held in a stock brokerage account or by a bank or other nominee, you are the beneficial owner of shares held in “street name,” and these proxy materials are being forwarded to you by your broker or other nominee, who is considered to be the stockholder of record. As the beneficial owner, you have the right to tell your nominee how to vote, and you are also invited to attend the Annual Meeting. However, since you are not the stockholder of record, you may not vote your shares at the Annual Meeting unless you obtain a legal proxy from your nominee authorizing you to do so. Your nominee has sent you instructions on how to direct the nominee’s vote. You may vote by following those instructions and the instructions on the Notice.

How do stockholders vote?

If you are a stockholder of record, you may have your shares voted on matters presented at the Annual Meeting in any of the following ways:


•	In person—you may attend the Annual Meeting and cast your vote there. If you have already voted online, by telephone or by mail, your vote at the Annual Meeting will supersede your prior vote.


•	By proxy—stockholders of record have a choice of voting by proxy:


•	over the Internet at www.proxyvote.com/PLNT ;


•	by using a toll-free telephone number noted on your proxy card; or


•	by executing and returning a proxy card and mailing it in the postage-paid envelope provided. Please allow sufficient time for delivery of your proxy card if you decide to vote by mail.

The Internet and telephone voting facilities for stockholders of record will close at 11:59 p.m., Eastern Time, on April 29, 2020.

If you properly cast your vote by either voting your proxy via the Internet, by telephone or by executing and returning the proxy card, and if your vote is not subsequently revoked by you, your vote will be voted in accordance with your instructions. If any other matter is presented, your proxy will vote in accordance with the proxy holders’ best judgment. At the time we mailed these proxy materials, we knew of no matters that needed to be acted on at the Annual Meeting other than those discussed in this Proxy Statement.

If you sign the proxy card but do not make specific choices, your proxy will vote your shares as recommended by the Board. If you are a street name holder and wish to vote at the meeting, you must first obtain a proxy from your bank, broker or other holder of record authorizing you to vote.

A control number, located on your proxy card, is designed to verify your identity and allow you to vote your shares, and to confirm that your voting instructions have been properly recorded when voting over the Internet or by telephone. Please be aware that if you vote by telephone or over the Internet, you may incur costs such as telephone and Internet access charges for which you will be responsible.

What is a proxy holder?

We are designating Dorvin Lively, our President, and Justin Vartanian, our General Counsel and Secretary, to hold and vote all properly-tendered proxies (except votes “withheld”). If you have indicated a vote, they will vote accordingly. If you have left a vote blank, they will vote as the Board recommends. While we do not expect any other business to come up for a vote, if it does, they will vote in their discretion. If a director nominee is unwilling or unable to serve, the proxy holders will vote in their discretion for an alternative nominee.

How does the Board recommend that I vote?

The Board recommends that you vote your shares:


•	“ FOR ” the election of the Board’s nominees;


•	“ FOR ” the ratification of the appointment of KPMG LLP; and


•	“ FOR ” the advisory approval of the compensation of our named executive officers.

May my broker vote for me?

If your broker holds your shares in street name, the broker may vote your shares on routine matters even if it does not receive instructions from you. At the Annual Meeting your broker may, without instructions from you, vote on Proposal 2, but not on any of the other proposals.

What are abstentions and broker non-votes?

An abstention represents the action by a stockholder to refrain from voting “for” or “against” a proposal. “Broker non-votes” represent votes that could have been cast on a particular matter by a broker, as a stockholder of record, but that were not cast because the broker (i) lacked discretionary voting authority on the matter and did not receive voting instructions from the beneficial owner of the shares or (ii) had discretionary voting authority but nevertheless refrained from voting on the matter.

Can I change my vote or revoke my proxy?

Yes, you may change your vote after you send in your proxy card or vote your shares via the Internet or by telephone by following these procedures:


•	Entering a new vote online;


•	Entering a new vote by telephone;


•	Signing and returning a new proxy card bearing a later date, which will automatically revoke your earlier proxy instructions; or


•	Attending the Annual Meeting and voting in person.

What constitutes a quorum for the Annual Meeting?

The presence at the meeting, in person or by proxy, of the holders of common stock representing a majority of the combined voting power of the outstanding shares of Class A and Class B common stock on the record date will constitute a quorum, permitting the meeting to conduct its business. As of the record date, there were 79,897,165 shares of Class A common stock outstanding and 6,532,170 shares of Class B common stock outstanding, all of which are entitled to be voted at the Annual Meeting. Both abstentions and “broker non-votes” (when a broker does not have authority to vote on the proposal in question) are counted as present for the purpose of determining the presence of a quorum.

What vote is required to approve the election of directors (Proposal 1)?

Director nominees are elected by plurality vote. Therefore, if you do not vote for a nominee, or you “withhold” authority to vote for a nominee, your vote will not count either “for” or “against” the nominee. Broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of Proposal 1.

What vote is required to ratify the selection of KPMG LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm (Proposal 2)?

Proposal 2 will be approved if a majority of the votes cast affirmatively or negatively on the matter is cast “for” the proposal. You may vote “for” or “against,” or abstain from voting on Proposal 2. Abstentions and broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of Proposal 2.

What vote is required for the advisory approval of the compensation of our named executive officers (Proposal 3)?

Proposal 3 will be approved if a majority of the votes cast affirmatively or negatively on the matter is cast “for” the proposal. You may vote “for” or “against,” or abstain from voting on Proposal 3. Because the proposal to approve the compensation paid to named executive officers for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019 is advisory, it will not be binding on us or the Board. However, our compensation committee intends to take into account the outcome of the vote when considering future executive compensation arrangements. Abstentions and broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of Proposal 3.

What does it mean if I receive more than one Notice?

You may receive more than one Notice if, for example, you hold your shares in multiple brokerage accounts. You must vote based on the instructions in each Notice separately.

How are votes counted?

Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. has been appointed to be the inspector of elections and in this capacity will supervise the voting, decide the validity of proxies and certify the results. We will publish final vote counts within four business days after the Annual Meeting on a Current Report on Form 8-K.

Is my vote confidential?

Proxy instructions, ballots, and voting tabulations that identify individual stockholders are handled in a manner that protects your voting privacy. Your vote will not be disclosed, either within the Company or to third parties, except as necessary (i) to meet applicable legal requirements, (ii) to allow for tabulation and certification of the vote, and (iii) to facilitate successful proxy solicitation by the Board.

Who pays for costs relating to the proxy materials and Annual Meeting?

The costs of preparing, assembling and mailing this Proxy Statement, the Notice of Annual Meeting of Stockholders and the enclosed Annual Report and proxy card, along with the cost of posting the proxy materials on a website, are to be borne by us. In addition to the use of mail, our directors, officers and employees may solicit proxies personally and by telephone and other

electronic means. They will receive no compensation in addition to their regular salaries. We may request banks, brokers and other custodians, nominees and fiduciaries to forward copies of the proxy materials to their principals and to request authority for the execution of proxies. We may reimburse these persons for their expenses in doing so.

Who can attend the Annual Meeting?

Any Company stockholder as of the close of business on the record date may attend the meeting. Stockholders must present a valid form of photo identification, such as a driver’s license, in order to be admitted to the meeting.

If your shares are held in street name (beneficially held in the name of a broker, bank or other holder of record), you must also present proof of your ownership, such as a bank or brokerage account statement, to be admitted to the meeting. Please note that if you are a beneficial holder and would like to vote at the meeting in person, you will need to bring a legal proxy from your broker, bank or other holder of record.

Even if you plan to attend the meeting, please vote your shares by submitting a proxy.

Who should I call if I have any questions?

If you have any questions about the Annual Meeting, voting or your ownership of our common stock, please call Investor Relations at (203) 682-8200 or send an e-mail to investor@planetfitness.com .

PROPOSAL 1:

Election of Directors

Our business operates under the direction of our Board, which currently consists of seven directors. In accordance with our Restated Certificate of Incorporation, our Board consists of three classes of approximately equal size: Classes I, II, and III, with terms expiring in 2022, 2020, and 2021, respectively. Stephen Spinelli, Jr., David Berg and Enshalla Anderson are the Class II directors whose terms expire at the Annual Meeting. Mr. Berg will not stand for re-election and will retire from our Board at the Annual Meeting. Our Board has nominated, and stockholders are being asked to reelect, Dr. Spinelli and Ms. Anderson for three-year terms expiring at our 2023 annual meeting of stockholders. If elected, the nominees will each hold office until our 2023 annual meeting of stockholders and a successor is duly elected and qualified or until earlier death, resignation, or removal.

Each of the two nominees currently serves as a director of the Company. The Board is not aware of any nominee who will be unable or unwilling to serve as a director if elected at the Annual Meeting. In the event that one or more nominees is unexpectedly not available to serve, proxies may be voted for another person nominated as a substitute by the Board, or the Board may reduce the number of directors to be elected at the Annual Meeting. Information relating to each nominee for election as director and for each continuing director, including his or her period of service as a director of the Company, principal occupation and other biographical material, is shown later in this Proxy Statement.

The Board recommends a vote FOR the election of each of the nominees as director.

BOARD OF DIRECTORS

The following table sets forth the name, age, and position, as of March 3, 2020, of individuals who currently serve as directors on our Board.



Name	Age	Position
Stephen Spinelli, Jr.	65	Chair of the Board
Christopher Rondeau	47	Chief Executive Officer and Director
David Berg	58	Director
Frances Rathke	59	Director
Craig Benson	65	Director
Cammie Dunaway	57	Director
Enshalla Anderson	50	Director

Class I—Directors with Terms Expiring in 2022

Craig Benson has served on our Board since July 2017. Gov. Craig Benson serves as the Chief Executive Officer at Soft Draw Investments, LLC. He previously served as the 79th Governor of the State of New Hampshire. During his tenure, the Cato Institute recognized Gov. Benson as the most effective new governor in the country, as well as the second most effective of all governors nationwide. In 1983, Gov. Benson co-founded Cabletron Systems, Inc., a leading provider of networking solutions, and thereafter served as its Chairman from 1983 to July 1999. Gov. Benson served at various times as Cabletron’s CEO, COO and President, helping take the company from a garage start-up to a publicly traded company with 7,000 employees and annual sales exceeding $1.6 billion. He currently serves as Trustee of Lahey Health System, Inc. and is a member of the Board of Trustees at Lahey Hospital & Medical Center. He also serves as the Vice Chairman of the Trustees of Babson College. He previously served as a Director of Sycamore Networks Inc. from October 2007 to April 1, 2013. Gov. Benson has been a Planet Fitness franchisee since October 2012. He graduated from Babson College with a degree in Finance and completed an MBA in Operations Management from Syracuse University. Gov.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

Corporate Governance Highlights

As corporate governance is key to a strong and accountable Board, we strive to adopt practices that will promote the long-term interests of the Company and its stockholders, including the below examples.




✓	Accountability. Each share of our common stock outstanding on the record date is entitled to one vote per matter presented to stockholders	✓	Annual Named Executive Officer Performance Evaluation by the Compensation Committee of the Board

✓	Clawback, Anti-Hedging, Anti-Short Sale and Anti-Pledging Policies for Directors, Executive Officers and other Employees	✓	Limitation on Management Directors. Our CEO is the only member of management who serves as a director

✓	Regular Board and Committee Executive Sessions of Non-Management Directors	✓	Audit Committee Approval Required for Related Party Transactions

✓	“Pay for Performance” Philosophy Drives Executive Compensation	✓	No “Poison Pill” (Stockholder Rights Plan)

✓	Independent Executive Compensation Consultant	✓	Commitment to Diversity

✓	Risk Oversight by the Board and Committees	✓	No excise tax gross-ups on severance or change-in-control payments or benefits

✓	Annual Board and Committee Self-Evaluations	✓	Established Whistleblower Policy

✓	Separate offices of chair of the Board and CEO.	✓	Established Director and Senior Officer Stock Ownership Guidelines

Board Composition and Director Independence

Our business and affairs are managed under the direction of the Board. Our Restated Certificate of Incorporation provides that our Board shall consist of at least three directors but not more than fifteen directors and that the number of directors may be fixed from time to time by resolution of our Board. Our Board is divided into three classes, as follows:


•	Class I, which consists of Craig Benson and Cammie Dunaway. The terms of Gov. Benson and Ms. Dunaway will continue until our 2022 annual meeting of stockholders and a successor is duly elected and qualified or until earlier death, resignation or removal.


•	Class II, which consists of Stephen Spinelli, Jr., David Berg and Enshalla Anderson. The terms of Dr. Spinelli, Mr. Berg and Ms. Anderson will continue until the Annual Meeting and a successor is duly elected and qualified or until earlier death, resignation or removal; and


•	Class III, which consists of Frances Rathke and Chris Rondeau. The terms of Ms. Rathke and Mr. Rondeau will continue until our 2021 annual meeting and a successor is duly elected and qualified or until earlier death, resignation or removal.

At this time, the Board believes that the classified board structure is in the best interest of the Company. The three-year term will ensure that at any given time the majority of the directors will have deep knowledge of the Company and a firm understanding of its goals, and it allows for continuity and stability of our Board, promoting the balance of long-term and short-term interests of the Company and its stockholders. The structure also safeguards the Company from third-party takeover attempts as it will require a longer period to change majority control of the board. A classified board remains accountable to the Company’s stockholders. The directors continue to have a fiduciary responsibility to the stockholders, and the stockholders have the ability to elect one third of the Board annually to ensure their interests are represented.

Amendments to certain provisions of our certificate of incorporation and bylaws, including the classified board provision, require the approval of holders of at least 75% of the voting power of our outstanding shares of capital stock. The Company believes this heightened threshold is appropriate as it relates to fundamental elements of our corporate governance. The provision does not preclude changes being made to governing documents but rather it requires broad stockholder consensus in order to effect change. By requiring a 75% stockholder vote, the Board is better positioned to protect the Company from third-party takeover attempts and encourage those interested in acquiring the Company to negotiate directly with the Board.

The Board evaluates the relationships of each director and any director nominees with the Company and makes an affirmative determination whether such director or nominee is independent. Pursuant to our corporate governance guidelines, an independent director shall be one who meets the qualification requirements for being an independent director under applicable laws and the corporate governance listing standards of the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE"), including the requirement that the Board must have affirmatively determined that the director has no material relationships with the Company, either directly or as a partner, stockholder or officer of an organization that has a relationship with the Company. To guide its determination as to whether or not a business or charitable relationship between the Company and an organization with which a director is so affiliated is material, the Board, or designated committee of the Board, may from time to time adopt categorical standards of independence. Our Board has determined that Dr. Spinelli, Ms. Dunaway, Ms. Rathke, Mr. Berg and Ms. Anderson are independent directors under the rules of the NYSE.

Annual Board and Committee Performance Review

Pursuant to our corporate governance guidelines, our nominating and corporate governance committee is responsible for reporting annually to the Board an evaluation of the overall performance of the Board. Additionally, the charters of our audit committee, compensation committee and nominating & corporate governance committees each provide that the respective committee is responsible for performing or participating in an annual evaluation of its performance, the results of which are presented to the Board.

Board of Directors Leadership Structure

We currently separate the offices of the chair of the Board and chief executive officer of the Company, with Dr. Spinelli serving as non-executive chair, although the Board maintains the flexibility to select the chair of the Board and its leadership structure, from time to time, based on the criteria that it deems to be in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders. At this time, the Company believes that having a separate chief executive officer and chair allows Mr. Rondeau to focus on his role as our Chief Executive Officer and increases the Board’s independence from management, leading to effective monitoring and oversight. As non-executive chair, Dr. Spinelli serves as a key source of communication between the independent directors and the Chief Executive Officer, establishes the agenda for each meeting of the Board and coordinates the agenda for and presides at regularly scheduled meetings of the independent directors.

Board Meetings, Attendance and Committees

Our Board met thirteen times during 2019. Each director attended at least 75% of the aggregate meetings of the Board and meetings of the board committees on which such director served in 2019. The Board also approved certain actions by unanimous written consent in lieu of a meeting.

It is our policy that our directors attend annual meetings of stockholders. All then-current directors attended the 2019 annual meeting of stockholders.

As of the date of this Proxy Statement, our Board has three standing committees: the audit committee; the compensation committee; and the nominating and corporate governance committee. Each committee operates under its own written charter adopted by the Board, each of which is available on our website at http://investor.planetfitness.com .

Audit Committee

Our audit committee consists of three non-employee directors: Ms. Rathke, Dr. Spinelli and Mr. Berg, with Ms. Rathke serving as chair of the committee.

Our audit committee met six times during 2019.

None of our audit committee members simultaneously serve on the audit committees of more than three public companies, including ours. Our Board has determined that each of Ms. Rathke, Dr. Spinelli and Mr. Berg is an “audit committee financial expert” within the meaning of the SEC’s regulations and applicable listing standards of the NYSE. The audit committee’s responsibilities include:

Compensation Committee

Our compensation committee consists of three non-employee directors: Mr. Berg, Dr. Spinelli and Ms. Rathke, with Mr. Berg serving as chair of the committee. Our compensation committee met six times during 2019. Our Board has determined that each of Mr. Berg, Dr. Spinelli and Ms. Rathke meet the definition of an “independent director” under Section 303A.02 of the NYSE corporate governance standards and under the Exchange Act. The compensation committee has the authority to delegate to subcommittees of the compensation committee any of the responsibilities of the full committee and executive officers of the Company such responsibilities of the full committee as may be permitted by applicable laws and in accordance with NYSE rules. The compensation committee’s responsibilities include:


•	determining and approving the compensation of our Chief Executive Officer, including annually reviewing and approving corporate goals and objectives relevant to the compensation of our Chief Executive Officer, and evaluating the performance of our Chief Executive Officer in light of such corporate goals and objectives;


•	reviewing and approving the corporate goals, as well as applicable personal goals, and objectives relevant to the compensation of our other executive officers;

Our nominating and corporate governance committee consists of three non-employee directors: Dr. Spinelli, Mr. Berg and Ms. Dunaway, with Dr. Spinelli serving as chair of the committee. Our nominating and corporate governance committee met five times during 2019. The nominating and corporate governance committee’s responsibilities include:

•	establishing procedures for identifying and evaluating board of director candidates, including nominees recommended by stockholders;

Board Oversight of Risk Management

While the full Board has the ultimate oversight responsibility for the risk management process, its committees oversee risk in certain specified areas. In particular, our audit committee oversees management of enterprise risks, including data and cyber security, as well as financial risks, business conduct and ethics, and is also responsible for overseeing the review and approval of related party transactions. Our compensation committee oversees the management of risks relating to our executive compensation plans and arrangements and the incentives created by the compensation awards it administers. Our nominating and corporate governance committee oversees risks associated with corporate governance. Pursuant to the Board’s instruction, management regularly reports on applicable risks to the relevant committee or the full Board, as appropriate, with additional review or reporting on risks conducted as needed or as requested by the Board and its committees.

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation

Dr. Spinelli, Mr. Berg and Ms. Rathke have not at any time during the prior three years been one of our officers or employees. None of our executive officers currently serve, or in the past fiscal year have served, as a member of the Board or compensation committee of any entity that has one or more executive officers serving on our Board or compensation committee.

Codes of Conduct

We have adopted a code of business conduct and ethics applicable to our directors, officers and employees and a code of ethics for senior financial officers applicable to senior executive and financial officers, including our principal executive officer, principal financial officer and principal accounting officer (the "Codes of Conduct"). The Codes of Conduct are available on our website at http://investor.planetfitness.com . If we make any substantive amendments to the Codes of Conduct or grant any waiver, including any implicit waiver, from a provision of the Codes of Conduct affecting our directors or executive officers, we will disclose the nature of such amendment or waiver on that website or in a Current Report on Form 8-K.

Corporate Governance Guidelines

We believe that good corporate governance is important to ensure that we are managed for the long-term benefit of our stockholders. The Board has adopted a set of corporate governance guidelines to set clear parameters for the operation of our Board. Our corporate governance guidelines are available on our website at http://investor.planetfitness.com .

Director Nomination Process

The nominating and corporate governance committee recommends, and the Board nominates, candidates to stand for election as directors. Stockholders may also nominate persons to be elected as directors in accordance with our bylaws and applicable law, as described under “Additional Information—Requirements for Stockholder Proposals.”

Board Membership Criteria

We seek a Board that, as a whole, possesses the experiences, skills, backgrounds, and qualifications appropriate to function effectively in light of the Company’s current and evolving business circumstances. It is the policy of the Board that directors should possess strong personal and professional ethics, integrity, and values; be business savvy and genuinely interested in the Company; and be committed to representing the long-term interests of our stockholders. Although we do not have a formal policy regarding diversity, our goal is a balanced and diverse Board, with members whose skills, background and experience are complementary and, together, cover the spectrum of areas that impact our business.

Shareholder Engagement

We value shareholder engagement and strive for regular communication with our shareholders throughout the year. In addition to engaging with shareholders through our quarterly earnings calls, we routinely participate in direct investor meetings and investment community conferences.

The Secretary will not forward any communication determined in his good faith belief to be frivolous, unduly hostile, threatening or similarly unsuitable.

PROPOSAL 2:

Ratification of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

The audit committee of our Board has appointed KPMG LLP (“KPMG”) as our independent registered public accounting firm for 2020. We are asking our stockholders to ratify this appointment.

SEC and NYSE regulations require our audit committee to engage, retain, and supervise our independent registered public accounting firm. Our audit committee annually reviews our independent registered public accounting firm’s independence, including reviewing all relationships between the independent registered public accounting firm and us and any disclosed relationships or services that may impact the objectivity and independence of the independent registered public accounting firm, and the independent registered public accounting firm’s performance. Although stockholder ratification is not required by applicable law nor by our bylaws, we are submitting our selection of KPMG as our independent registered public accounting firm as a matter of good corporate governance.

We expect that representatives of KPMG will be present at the meeting, that the representatives will have the opportunity to make a statement if they so desire, and that they will be available to respond to appropriate questions.

KPMG has served as our independent registered public accounting firm since 2012.

Policy on Audit Committee Pre-Approval of Audit and Permissible Non-Audit Services of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

The audit committee has the responsibility to select, appoint, engage, oversee, retain, evaluate and terminate our external auditors; pre-approve all audit and non-audit services to be provided, consistent with all applicable laws, to us by our external auditors; and establish the fees and other compensation to be paid to our external auditors.

2019 Accomplishments

•	Total revenue increased by 20.2% from the prior year to $688.8 million;


•	System-wide same store sales increased 8.8%;

•	Net income as a whole was $135.4 million compared to $103.2 million in the prior year;


•	Adjusted net income* increased 22.7% to $146.7 million, or $1.59 per diluted share, compared to $119.5 million, or $1.22 per diluted share, in the prior year;

*	Adjusted net income, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted net income per share, diluted, are non-GAAP measures. For a discussion of Adjusted net income, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted net income per share, diluted, reconciliations of Adjusted net income and Adjusted EBITDA to U.S. GAAP (“GAAP”) net income, and a computation of Adjusted net income per share, diluted, see “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations-Non-GAAP Financial Measures” included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019.

We believe that the efforts of our named executive officers were critical to our financial growth and operational successes in 2019.

Overview of our Executive Compensation Program

Our executive compensation program is designed to closely tie pay to performance, in part through compensating our executives based on the attainment of operating goals that influence the creation of shareholder value. The compensation committee applied the following policies and principles in making its compensation determinations for our named executive officers in fiscal year 2019:


•	Base salaries should be consistent with those for similar positions based on peer group data;


•	Annual bonuses should be directly connected to company performance and achievement of corporate goals;


•	Equity compensation should be used to align the interests of our named executive officers with those of our stockholders;


•	Benefits provided to our named executive officers should generally be the same as those provided to our other employees; and


•	Total compensation should attract, motivate and retain talented executives in a competitive environment.

We believe that the features of our executive compensation program benefit the Company as a whole and serve to increase the alignment of incentives between our executive officers and our shareholders, while avoiding the promotion of excessive risk-taking.

Process for Determining Executive Compensation

The compensation committee

The compensation committee oversees our executive compensation program and is responsible for approving the nature and amount of the compensation paid to our executive officers and administering our equity compensation plans and awards.

To maintain pay at competitive levels, our compensation committee strives to set base salaries and total compensation (base salary, annual bonus at target and the grant date value of long-term incentive awards) at approximately the 50th percentile of our peer companies for the same element of compensation.

For information on the peer companies we use for compensation setting purposes, please see the discussion under “Use of Peer Group and Benchmarking”. To tie executive compensation to performance, short-term incentives are earned based primarily on the achievement of previously established corporate goals and take into consideration overall company performance for the year. The compensation committee also considers company performance when determining the size of long-term incentive awards.

As described below, the compensation committee works with members of management and obtains advice from an external independent compensation consultant when making its compensation decisions; however, the compensation committee remains solely responsible for setting the compensation of our named executive officers.

The role of management

The Chief Executive Officer makes compensation-related recommendations to the compensation committee with respect to annual base salary, target bonus opportunities and long-term incentive award grants for the named executive officers (other than himself). No member of the management team, including our Chief Executive Officer, has a role in determining his or her own compensation.

The role of the compensation consultant

Each year, the compensation committee considers a variety of factors in assessing the competitiveness of our executive compensation program and the individual total compensation of each of our named executive officers. These factors include our performance against our internal strategic, operational and financial goals, an analysis of the appropriate mix of short-term cash and long-term equity compensation and a thorough review of compensation paid at peer companies compared to the compensation we pay our executives officers.

The compensation committee has from time to time engaged a compensation consulting firm to provide it with objective analysis, advice and information, including competitive market data and compensation recommendations related to the compensation of our Chief Executive Officer and our other named executive officers. In January 2019, the compensation committee directly engaged Seabury Human Capital ("Seabury") to assist in updating our peer group to account for the growth of our company and the material changes experienced by the companies in our initial peer group since 2017. After consideration of the independence assessment factors provided under the listing rules of the NYSE, the compensation committee determined that Seabury is independent and that the work it performed in 2019 did not raise any conflicts of interest.

Use of peer group and benchmarking

With the assistance of Seabury in 2019, the compensation committee developed a list of our peer companies and collected and analyzed compensation data of these peer companies and compared it to the levels and components of our executive compensation program. To determine our peer companies, the compensation committee reviewed publicly traded companies operating primarily under a franchise business model in the hotels, restaurants and leisure or specialty retail industries with a similar market capitalization and comparable size to the Company.

Based on the foregoing selection criteria, the compensation committee developed a list of selected peer companies for its 2019 peer group. The compensation committee used compensation data from these peer companies as a basis for evaluating base salary and annual bonus target levels, as well the values and types of long-term incentive awards granted, for the 2019 fiscal year.




2019 Peer Companies Utilized in Evaluating Named Executive Officer Compensation

Aaron’s, Inc.	DineEquity	Ruth’s Hospitality Group

Bloomin Brands	Domino’s	Shake Shack

Bojangles	Dunkin Brands	Sonic Corp

Brinker International	Jack in the Box	Texas Roadhouse

Cheescake Factory	Papa John’s	Wendy’s Co.

Denny’s

In order to account for changes related to certain companies in our 2019 peer group, the compensation committee directly engaged Meridian Compensation Partners ("Meridian") in June 2019 to establish an updated peer group for its 2020 compensation determinations. After consideration of the independence assessment factors provided under the listing rules of the NYSE, the compensation committee determined that Meridian is independent and that the work it performed in 2019 does not raise any conflicts of interest.

When selecting the updated peer group, the compensation committee sought public companies operating primarily under a franchise business model in the hotels, restaurants and leisure or specialty retail industries with a similar market capitalization and comparable size to the Company. Bojangles and Sonic are no longer public companies and therefore did not meet the compensation committee’s selection criteria. Based on the foregoing selection criteria, the compensation committee developed a list of selected peer companies for its 2020 peer group. The compensation committee will use compensation data from these peer companies as a basis for evaluating base salary and annual bonus target levels, as well the values and types of long-term incentive awards granted, for the 2020 fiscal year.

Components of our Executive Compensation Program

Base salary

Each of our named executive officers is paid a base salary. The compensation committee believes this element of compensation is important because it provides a fixed element of compensation that reflects the individual named executive officer’s skills, experience and role, as valued in the marketplace and within the Company. Base salaries are established based on peer group data, internal pay equity considerations and each named executive officer’s skill set, experience and role and responsibilities. Base salaries are reviewed annually, upon promotion, or following a change in job responsibilities and may be adjusted based on the above-referenced criteria and the recommendations of our Chief Executive Officer, except with regard to his own base salary. The initial base salary of each of Messrs. Rondeau, Lively, Miller and Chacko (prior to his resignation) is set forth in his respective employment agreement, and, except for Mr. Chacko, have been subsequently adjusted by the compensation committee. In 2019, the compensation committee approved increases to the base salaries of Messrs. Rondeau, Lively and Miller in order to bring each base salary closer to the 50th percentile for similar positions within the Company's peer group.

The base salaries of our named executive officers in 2019 were as follows:


•	Mr. Rondeau $775,000.


•	Mr. Lively $525,000.


•	Mr. Miller $375,000.


•	Mr. Chacko $500,000 (prior to his resignation).

Annual bonus plan

Each of our named executive officers is eligible to earn a cash bonus under our annual bonus plan based on the achievement of key corporate financial and strategic goals and, in some cases, if determined to be appropriate by the compensation committee, the achievement of certain personal goals. The compensation committee believes this element of compensation is important because it directly ties the compensation paid to our named executive officers with the achievement of key operating and financial goals.

For fiscal 2019, the compensation committee chose Adjusted EBITDA as the performance goal that would be used to establish the funding levels under our annual bonus plan. The use of Adjusted EBITDA as the primary performance metric under the plan provides a direct link between the compensation payable to our executives and the value we create for our shareholders. Adjusted EBITDA is also a key metric used by us and by our shareholders to evaluate our business performance.

The compensation committee set the Adjusted EBITDA target for fiscal 2019 at $277.341 million, a level it believed was both challenging and achievable. By establishing a target that is challenging, the compensation committee believes that the performance of our employees, and therefore our performance, is maximized. By setting a target that is achievable, the compensation committee believes that employees will remain motivated to perform at the high level required to achieve the target.

The level of potential funding under the annual bonus plan for fiscal 2019 ranged from 0% to 225% of target based on our actual performance relative to the Adjusted EBITDA target, with a threshold funding level established by the compensation committee of $249.607 million (90% of target), the minimum level of Adjusted EBITDA performance that would result in any funding under the annual bonus plan. Bonus pool funding is non-linear based on the percentage of achievement versus target, as shown in the table below.



Overall Bonus Pool Funding Plan—Adjusted EBITDA Target
(all $ amounts in thousands)	Achievement	Threshold Performance (funding at 25% of target)	Target Performance (funding at 100% of target)	Maximum Performance (funding at 225% of target)
Adjusted EBITDA targets ($)		249,607	277,341	305,075
Achievement vs. target (%)		90	100	110
Bonus pool funding targets ($)		1,441	5,762	12,966
Adjusted EBITDA
Achievement in dollars ($)	282,177
Achievement vs. target (%)	101.7
Bonus pool funding ($) ⁽¹⁾	6,767



(1)	Funding was determined to be 117.4% of target, based on non-linear interpolation between target performance and maximum performance, as set forth in this table.
*	Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure. For a discussion of Adjusted EBITDA and a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to U.S. GAAP (“GAAP”) net income, see “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations-Non-GAAP Financial Measures” included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019.

Once the Adjusted EBITDA performance is determined after the close of the fiscal year, the funding level of the annual bonus plan is established. The bonus pool available under the annual bonus plan, based on its funding level, is then allocated to participants in the plan based on the achievement of relevant financial or operational business goals. These specific goals are chosen by the compensation committee based on their impact on our profitability. Goals are designated as either “corporate” or “personal”. Corporate goals are financial or operational goals that are influenced or impacted by the activities of the broader organization. Corporate goals are shared among all executives in order to encourage cross-functional collaboration. Personal goals, when appropriate for the role, are measurable operational or business goals that relate directly to the duties and responsibilities of the individual executive. Each performance goal, whether “corporate” or “personal”, has a designated weighting and related payout at threshold, target and maximum levels of achievement.

The compensation committee established the corporate performance goals listed below for our 2019 annual bonus plan, including goals based on corporate same store sales, franchise same store sales, total franchise store placements and net revenue. The table below shows the payment levels based on achievement of the performance target. Payment levels between threshold and maximum are determined based on additional defined achievement levels. Under the annual bonus plan, if actual achievement was below 25% of the target amount for any performance metric then no payment would be made in respect of that performance metric.



2019 Annual Bonus Plan Performance Targets
	Weighting (%)	Threshold Performance	Target Performance	Maximum Performance
Corporate same store sales (%)	15	4.06	5.45	8.95
Franchise same store sales (%)	25	8.96	11.42	12.42
Total franchise store placements (#)	25	209	239	250
Net Revenue ($, in thousands)	35	624,907	675,575	760,022
Payout percentage (%)		25	100	225

The target amount of each named executive officer’s annual cash bonus is set as a percentage of his base salary. The target amount for each of our named executive officers was determined pursuant to his respective employment agreement, and has been subsequently adjusted by the compensation committee.

The compensation committee made the following decisions regarding our named executive officers’ annual bonuses in 2019 in order to bring each officer's target annual bonus to at least the 25th percentile for similar positions within the Company's peer group:


•	Mr. Lively's target annual bonus was increased to 75% of his base salary.


•	Mr. Miller and Mr. Chacko's target annual bonuses were increased to 60% of their respective base salary.

The target bonus opportunity of each of our named executive officers for 2019 is listed in the table below:



Named Executive Officer	Target Bonus Opportunity (as a percentage of base salary)
Christopher Rondeau	120%
Dorvin Lively	75%
Craig Miller	60%
Roger Chacko	60%

As noted above, the 2019 annual bonus plan was funded at 117.4% of target based on the compensation committee’s determination of our achievement of Adjusted EBTIDA of $282.177 million (after applying interpolation as previously set by the compensation committee), which was 101.7% of the Adjusted EBITDA target amount described above.

The actual amount earned by Messrs. Rondeau, Lively and Miller under our 2019 annual bonus plan was determined by the compensation committee based on the level of achievement of the corporate performance goals described above, and for Mr. Miller, the level of achievement of certain business-related personal performance goals described below. Payment to each of these named executive officers under the 2019 annual bonus plan was determined by multiplying the payout percentage for the applicable performance target by its weighting and then by the named executive officer’s target bonus opportunity, subject to adjustment as described below. Mr. Chacko was ineligible to receive any bonus payment for 2019 due to his resignation prior to the bonus payment date.

Actual achievement of the 2019 corporate performance goals, as applicable to Messrs. Rondeau, Lively and Miller were as follows:



Corporate Performance Goal (Weighting)	2019 Performance Result		Level of Achievement (as a % of target)	Bonus Earned (as a % of target)
Increase in Corporate Same Store Sales From Prior Year (15%)	6.10	%	111.9	118.6	%
Increase in Franchise Same Store Sales From Prior Year (25%)	8.99	%	78.7	25.8	%
Total Franchise Store Placements (25%)	263		110.0	225.0	%
Net Revenue (35%) ($, in thousands)	688,803		102.0	115.7	%

Based on the above levels of achievement and the weighting of each applicable corporate performance goal, the cumulative performance level achieved with respect to the corporate performance goals was 121.0%.

If additional bonus pool funds are available after the allocation to participants based on achievement of the corporate performance goals and personal performance goals, if applicable, the remaining funds are then paid to all participants in the plan, allocated proportionally by target bonus amount. For 2019, bonus payments made under the plan based on the achievement of corporate performance goals and personal performance goals, if applicable, totaled $6,583,805, leaving $183,473 in additional funds available for payment under the plan based on total bonus pool funding of $6,767,278. As a result, each plan participant, including each of our named executive officers, received an additional payment under the 2019 annual bonus plan. Each of our named executive officers received an additional payment representing a 4.6% increase in the corporate performance goal portion of their actual bonus payment (which resulted in a 2.8% increase in the total bonus payment for Mr. Miller based on the 60% weighting of the corporate performance goal portion of his actual bonus payment).

Bonuses for Messrs. Rondeau and Lively were based solely on the level of achievement of corporate performance goals. With respect to Mr. Miller, the actual amount earned under our 2019 annual bonus plan was determined by the compensation committee based on the level of achievement of both the corporate performance goals and the level of achievement of his personal performance goals. The corporate performance goals were individually weighted as described above and together determined 60% of his total bonus target. The personal performance goals were individually weighted and together determined 40% of his total bonus target. The personal performance goals for Mr. Miller were set at the beginning of the year and relate directly to his duties and responsibilities in connection with the Company's strategic initiatives, spread across six key operational initiatives and one technology infrastructure initiative, as follows:


•	Achievement of accelerated development milestones (7%)


•	Achievement of web experience initiative milestones (7%)


•	Achievement of corporate partnership milestones (7%)


•	Achievement of marketing platform development milestones (7%)


•	Achievement of mobile and in-store media plan milestones (7%)


•	Achievement of technology implementation plan milestones (5%)

Actual achievement of Mr. Miller’s 2019 personal performance goals was as follows:



Performance Goal	2019 Performance Result (as a % of Target)		Level of Achievement (as a % of Target)		Bonus Payout(%) ⁽¹⁾
Personal performance goals (40%)	89.3	%			35.7	%
Accelerated Development (7%)			225.0	%

Mobile & In-Store Media (7%)			39.3	%
Technology Implementation (5%)			112.5	%
Corporate performance goals (60%)	121.0	%			75.4	%


(1)	Includes a 4.6% additional payment applicable to the corporate performance goal portion of the bonus, which resulted in a 2.8% overall increase in the bonus payment for Mr. Miller who has a 60% weighting of the corporate performance goal, as discussed above.

Actual achievement of the 2019 corporate and personal performance goals, if applicable, and overall payout, as applicable to Messrs. Rondeau, Lively, Miller and Chacko were as follows:




Named Executive Officer	Corporate Performance Goal Achievement (as a % of target)		Personal Performance Goal Achievement (as a % of target) ⁽¹⁾		Overall Bonus Payout (as a % of target) ⁽²⁾


Christopher Rondeau	121.0	%	—	%	125.6	%
Dorvin Lively	121.0	%	—	%	125.6	%
Craig Miller	121.0	%	89.3	%	111.1	%
Roger Chacko ⁽³⁾	—	%	—	%	—	%


(1)	Messrs. Rondeau and Lively did not have personal performance goals as an element of their 2019 target bonus opportunity.


(2)	Includes a 4.6% additional payment applicable to the corporate performance goal portion of the bonus (a 2.8% overall increase in the bonus payment for Mr. Miller who has a 60% weighting of the corporate performance goal, as discussed above).


(3)	Mr. Chacko was ineligible to receive any bonus payment under the plan due to his resignation prior to the bonus payment.

Based on the achievement of the performance goals as set forth above, payment under the annual bonus plan for each of our named executive officers for 2019 was as follows:



Named Executive Officer	Target Bonus Opportunity		2019 Bonus Payment
Christopher Rondeau	$	930,000	$	1,167,677
Dorvin Lively	$	393,750	$	494,379
Craig Miller	$	225,000	$	249,868
Roger Chacko ⁽¹⁾	$	300,000	$	—


(1)	Mr. Chacko was ineligible to receive any bonus payment under the plan due to his resignation prior to the bonus payment date.

Long-term incentive awards

Each of our named executive officers is eligible to receive equity awards under our long-term incentive program. Our long-term incentive program is designed to promote stock ownership by our senior management, tie compensation realized to stock price performance and encourage retention of key executives. Our long-term incentive program is a key tool in aligning executive pay with value creation on behalf of shareholders without promoting excessive risk-taking.

Our 2019 long-term equity incentive program consisted of a combination of stock option, restricted stock unit and performance share unit awards. Performance share unit awards are performance-based awards that vest in full after three years and are paid out only upon achievement of certain Adjusted EBITDA and same store sales target goals. The compensation committee also considers stock options to be performance-based because no value is created for the stock option awards unless the value of our Class A common stock appreciates after the date the stock options are granted. The Company grants stock option, restricted stock unit and performance share unit awards to our named executive officers, and other key employees, under the Planet Fitness, Inc. 2015 Omnibus Plan (the “2015 Plan”), which we adopted in connection with our IPO.

For the purpose of determining the size of the 2019 long-term incentive awards granted to our named executive officers, the compensation committee considered the long-term incentive data of the Company’s peer group, based on Seabury’s analysis and recommendations. The compensation committee also considered these factors when determining that the 2019 long-term incentive awards should contain an equal mix of stock options, restricted stock units and performance share units.

The compensation committee granted the following awards to our named executive officers in 2019:


•	Mr. Rondeau received an option to purchase 33,449 shares of our Class A common stock with a grant date fair value of $774,979, a grant of 11,002 restricted stock units of our Class A common stock with a grant date fair value of $774,981 and a grant of 11,002 performance share units of our Class A common stock (at target) with a grant date fair value of $774,981.


•	Mr. Lively received an option to purchase 11,329 shares of our Class A common stock with a grant date fair value of $262,481, a grant of 3,726 restricted stock units of our Class A common stock with a grant date fair value of $262,459 and a grant of 3,726 performance share units of our Class A common stock (at target) with a grant date fair value of $262,459.


•	Mr. Miller received an option to purchase 5,395 shares of our Class A common stock with a grant date fair value of $124,997, a grant of 1,774 restricted stock units of our Class A common stock with a grant date fair value of $124,961 and a grant of 1,774 performance share units of our Class A common stock (at target) with a grant date fair value of $124,961.

•

Mr. Chacko received an option to purchase 7,193 shares of our Class A common stock with a grant date fair value of $166,654, a grant of 2,366 restricted stock units of our Class A common stock with a grant date fair value of $166,661 and a grant of 2,366 performance share units of our Class A common stock (at target) with a grant date fair value of $166,661. These grants were subsequently forfeited in their entirety upon termination of Mr. Chacko’s employment, pursuant to the vesting terms of the respective grant agreements.

The stock options and restricted stock units granted to our named executive officers in 2019 vest over four years, in four equal installments beginning on the first anniversary of the grant date, generally subject to continued employment through the applicable vesting date. The performance share units granted to our named executive officers in 2019 vest in full on the third anniversary of the grant date subject to achievement of pre-established Adjusted EBITDA and same store sales targets and generally subject to continued employment through the third anniversary of the grant date. The number of shares of our Class A common stock issuable under the performance share units will be determined based on the level at which the goals are achieved and can range from 50% to 200% of the shares subject to the award. The stock options have a ten-year term. Stock options are issued with an exercise price equal to the fair market value of a share of our Class A common stock on the date of grant and cannot be repriced or reloaded without shareholder approval. Restricted stock units and performance share units are issued based on the fair market value as determined by the closing share price of our Class A common stock on the date of the grant.

Stock ownership guidelines

On February 27, 2018, the Board adopted stock ownership guidelines for our non-employee directors and senior executive officers, under which (i) our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer are required to acquire and own stock or stock equivalents in an amount equal to five times their annual base salary and (ii) all other senior executive officers are required to acquire and own stock or stock equivalents in an amount equal to three times their base annual salary. Senior executive officers are required to meet the applicable ownership requirements within five years of becoming subject to them. Until the required ownership level is reached, senior executive officers are required to retain 100% of any shares, net of applicable taxes and the payment of any exercise or purchase price (if applicable), received upon the vesting or settlement of equity awards or the exercise of stock options. As of December 31, 2019, each of our then current named executive officers had met their respective applicable stock ownership requirements under these guidelines. We anticipate that Mr. Fitzgerald, who joined the Company in 2020, will likewise meet the applicable stock ownership requirements within the required timeframe. The guidelines applicable to our non-employee directors are discussed in more detail under “Director Compensation” below.

Retirement plans

All of our named executive officers are eligible to participate in our 401(k) Plan, a broad-based retirement plan in which generally all of our full-time U.S.-based employees are eligible to participate. Under our 401(k) Plan, employees are permitted to defer their annual eligible compensation, subject to the limits imposed by the Internal Revenue Code, and the Company makes a fully vested matching contribution of 100% of employee contributions up to the first 3% of compensation, plus 50% of employee contributions up to the next 2% of compensation. We do not maintain any qualified or non-qualified defined benefit plans or supplemental executive retirement plans that cover our named executive officers.

Employee benefits and perquisites

All of our full-time employees, including our named executive officers, are eligible to participate in our health and welfare plans, including medical and dental benefits, life insurance benefits and short-term and long-term disability insurance. Our named executive officers participate in these plans on the same basis as other eligible employees. We do not maintain any supplemental health or welfare plans for our named executive officers. We also provide certain of our named executive officers, and other key employees, with certain additional limited benefits including tax equalization payments made to those of our named executive officers who are treated as partners rather than employees for U.S. tax purposes to offset self-employment and other additional taxes incurred as a result of such treatment, reimbursement of fees related to accounting services and relocation expenses, as applicable. The value of these benefits is included in the “All Other Compensation” column of the summary compensation table below.

Consulting agreement with Mr. Chacko

As noted above, effective May 31, 2019, Mr. Chacko resigned from his position as our Chief Commercial Officer. In connection with his termination of employment, we entered into a consulting agreement with Mr. Chacko pursuant to which he provided certain consulting services to us from June 1, 2019 through July 31, 2019 in exchange for a consulting fee of $35,000 per month. Mr. Chacko did not receive any severance payments or benefits from us in connection with his resignation or consulting agreement.

Other Compensation-Related Matters

Tax effects of executive compensation

Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code disallows a tax deduction for compensation paid to certain executive officers in a taxable year in excess of $1 million. Certain compensation paid to our named executive officers under plans that were adopted prior to the time we became a publicly-traded corporation was excluded from this deduction limitation during a transition period that ended as of our 2019 annual meeting. The compensation committee believes its primary responsibility is to establish and maintain an executive compensation program that satisfies the objectives and principles described in this Compensation Discussion and Analysis and may pay or provide compensation that is not tax deductible or that is limited as to deductibility.

Clawbacks; insider trading

Effective as of February 22, 2019, the Company adopted an Executive Compensation Recoupment Policy, or “clawback” policy, which is administered and enforced by the compensation committee, and applies to any cash or equity-based bonus or other cash or equity-based incentive granted by the Company to any of our executive officers. In the event of a restatement of the Company’s financial results due to material noncompliance with financial reporting requirements under the securities laws, with respect to any cash or equity-based bonus or other cash or equity-based incentive compensation paid or awarded by the Company to any current or former employee who is, or was, an “officer” of the Company for purposes of Section 16 of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (each, an “Executive Officer”), the compensation committee may, in its discretion, seek reimbursement of any such compensation awarded or paid to the Executive Officer or effect the cancellation of unvested and vested equity awards previously granted, if and to the extent such bonus or incentive compensation was based on the erroneous financial data and was in excess of what would have been paid to the Executive Officer under the accounting restatement. If the achievement of a certain financial result was considered in determining the bonus or incentive compensation awarded or paid to an Executive Officer, but the bonus or incentive compensation was not awarded or paid on a formulaic basis, the compensation committee will determine, in its sole discretion, the amount, if any, by which the payment or award should be reduced or reimbursed. The compensation committee has sole discretion under the policy to determine whether, and from whom, to seek recovery, as well as the form and timing of any recovery, which may include, among other forms of recovery, repayment or an adjustment to future incentive-based compensation payouts or grants.

The Company also has an insider trading policy, which prohibits any hedging, short sales and pledging transactions with respect to the Company’s securities by directors, officers and all employees.

Compensation risk assessment

During 2019, the compensation committee assessed our compensation policies and practices to evaluate whether they create risks that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company. Based on its assessment, the compensation committee concluded that the Company’s compensation policies and practices, in conjunction with the Company’s existing processes and controls, do not create incentives to take risks that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company.

Compensation Committee Report

The compensation committee has reviewed and discussed the Compensation Discussion and Analysis that appears above with management. Based on such review and discussion, the compensation committee has recommended to our Board that the Compensation Discussion and Analysis that appears above be included in this Proxy Statement.

(1)	Mr. Chacko resigned from the Company effective May 31, 2019. Mr. Chacko’s unvested stock options, restricted stock units and performance share units were forfeited upon termination of his employment. Mr. Chacko did not receive any severance payments in connection with his departure.

(2)

Amounts represent the aggregate grant date fair value of restricted stock unit and performance share unit awards granted to each of our named executive officers, determined in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718, disregarding the effects of estimated forfeitures. The underlying valuation assumptions for these awards are discussed in Note 14 to our consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2019 and in Note 13 to our consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2018, included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018. With respect to performance share units granted to the named executive officers in 2019, the aggregate grant date fair value was determined based on the probable outcome of the performance conditions associated with such awards at the date of grant. For these performance share units, the aggregate grant date fair value of these awards, assuming the maximum level of performance is achieved, is $1,549,962 for Mr. Rondeau, $525,918 for Mr. Lively, $249,922 for Mr. Miller and $333,322 for Mr. Chacko. These amounts do not reflect actual amounts that may be paid to or realized by the named executive officer.

Pension Benefits and Nonqualified Deferred Compensation

None of our named executive officers participated in or received benefits from a pension plan or from a non-qualified deferred compensation plan during our 2019 fiscal year or prior years.

Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control

The employment agreements with Messrs. Rondeau, Lively and Miller provide for severance payments and benefits in connection with specified termination events, subject to the named executive officer’s timely and effective execution of a separation agreement provided by us, containing a release of claims and other customary terms, and continued performance of the restrictive covenants described below. As described under “Resignation of Mr. Chacko” above, Mr. Chacko resigned from his employment with the Company effective May 31, 2019. In connection with his termination of employment, Mr. Chacko did not receive any severance payments or benefits.

Mr. Rondeau

If Mr. Rondeau’s employment is terminated by us without cause (as defined in his employment agreement) or by him for good reason (as defined in his employment agreement) during the term of his employment agreement, he will receive severance benefits consisting of (i) payment of his base salary for a period of 12 months following the date of such termination, (ii) payment of a pro-rata portion of the annual bonus he would have earned for the fiscal year in which his employment terminated, and (iii) the vesting of any unvested options or other unvested equity awards that would have vested in the calendar year in which his termination occurs. If Mr. Rondeau’s employment is terminated due to his disability (as defined in his employment agreement) during the term of his employment agreement, he will continue to receive his base salary, reduced by any disability income benefits to which he is entitled, and to participate in Company employee benefit plans, to the extent permitted by plan terms, for up to 90 consecutive days or 120 non-consecutive days of disability during any period of 365 consecutive calendar days.

Mr. Lively

If Mr. Lively’s employment is terminated by us without cause (as defined in his employment agreement) or by him for good reason (as defined in his employment agreement) during the term of his employment agreement, he will receive a severance benefit consisting of payment of his base salary for a period of 12 months following the date of such termination. If Mr. Lively’s employment is terminated due to his disability (as defined in his employment agreement) during the term of his employment agreement, he will continue to receive his base salary, reduced by any disability income benefits to which he is entitled, and to participate in Company employee benefit plans, to the extent permitted by plan terms, for up to 12 weeks of disability during any period of 365 consecutive calendar days.

Mr. Miller

If Mr. Miller experiences an involuntary termination of employment, for a reason other than cause, he will receive a severance benefit consisting of payment of his base salary plus an amount equal to the Company’s monthly share of premium payments for participation in the group health insurance plans of the Company, for a period of six months following such termination.

Equity Awards

Pursuant to the stock option and restricted stock unit award agreements under the 2015 Plan, upon termination of employment, any unvested stock options, restricted stock units or performance share units then held by our named executive officers will be immediately forfeited, and if employment is terminated for cause or under circumstances that would have constituted termination for cause, any vested stock options will also be forfeited immediately. If employment is terminated due to death or disability, any vested stock options will remain exercisable until the earlier of one year following termination or the original term of the option. If employment is terminated for other reasons, any vested stock options will remain exercisable until the earlier of three months following termination or the original term of the option.

As described above, pursuant to Mr. Rondeau’s employment agreement, any unvested options or other unvested equity awards that would have vested in the calendar year in which his termination occurs will vest on a termination without cause by the Company or by him for good reason.

Restrictive covenants

Pursuant to his respective employment agreement, each of our named executive officers is bound by certain restrictive covenants, including covenants relating to confidentiality and assignment of intellectual property rights, as well as covenants not to compete with us or to solicit our customers, prospective customers, employees or other service providers during employment and for a period of time (Messrs. Rondeau, Miller and Chacko, one year; and Mr. Lively two years) following termination of employment.

Estimated severance payments

The following tables set forth the dollar value of the estimated payments and benefits that would have become payable to Messrs. Rondeau, Lively and Miller in each of the termination scenarios described above, assuming the applicable triggering event occurred on December 31, 2019. For the reasons set forth above, Mr. Chacko is not included in the tables below.

Pay Ratio Disclosure Rule

As required by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and SEC rules, we are providing the following information about the relationship of the annual total compensation of our employees (other than our Chief Executive Officer) and the annual total compensation of our Chief Executive Officer. In determining the median employee, we prepared a list of all of our full-time, part-time and temporary employees as of December 31, 2019. To identify the “median employee” from our employee population, we calculated the amount of annual base compensation, including salary, hourly pay, over-time and holiday pay, for all of our employees, including all corporate headquarters employees and in-store employees, other than our Chief Executive Officer. We annualized the compensation of those full-time and part-time employees that were not employed for the full year of 2019. As of December 31, 2019, we had 36 non-U.S. employees, accounting for less than 5% of our total employees, all of whom were located in Canada. In accordance with the rules that allow for non-U.S. employees that account for 5% or less of total employees to be excluded from the determination of a company’s employees for purposes of determining the “median employee”, we excluded all 36 employees located in Canada. We did not use any other permitted exclusions or adjustments under the rules. As of December 31, 2019, we had a total of 1,737 employees, excluding our Chief Executive Officer, 1,701 of whom were based in the U.S. and were included for purposes of identifying the median employee.

Once we identified the median employee, we calculated that employee’s annual total compensation in the same manner as we calculate “Total Compensation” for purposes of the Summary Compensation Table. Determined in this manner, the median employee’s annual total compensation was $24,960. As identified in the Summary Compensation Table above, using the same methodology for total compensation, the annual total compensation of our Chief Executive Officer was $4,436,826. The resulting ratio of the annual total compensation of our Chief Executive Officer to the median of the annual total compensation of all employees (other than the Chief Executive Officer) is estimated to be 178:1.

In accordance with SEC rules, we have used estimates and assumptions, as described above, in calculating the pay ratio reported above. The estimates and assumptions that we use may differ from estimates and assumptions used by other companies, including companies in our compensation peer group described above.

PROPOSAL 3:

Advisory Vote on Named Executive Officer Compensation

The Compensation Discussion and Analysis beginning on page 16 of this Proxy Statement describes our executive compensation program and the compensation of our named executive officers for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019. The Board of Directors is asking shareholders to vote to approve, on a non-binding advisory basis, the compensation of our named executive officers by voting “ FOR ” the following resolution:

“RESOLVED, that the shareholders of Planet Fitness, Inc. APPROVE, on an advisory basis, the compensation paid to the Company’s named executive officers, as disclosed pursuant to the compensation disclosure rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, including the Compensation Discussion and Analysis, compensation tables and narrative discussion.”

As described in detail in the section titled “Compensation Discussion and Analysis”, we maintain an executive compensation program that ties pay to performance and seeks to:


•	Provide base salaries that are consistent with similar positions in similar companies;


•	Directly connect incentive pay to company performance and achievement of corporate goals;


•	Align the interests of our named executive officers with those of our stockholders;


•	Provide benefits to our named executive officers that are generally the same as those provided to our other employees; and


•	Attract, motivate and retain talented executives in a competitive environment.

The Board is asking shareholders to support this proposal. This proposal will be approved if a majority of the votes cast affirmatively or negatively on the matter is cast “for” the proposal. Although the vote we are asking you to cast is advisory and non-binding, the compensation committee and the Board value the views of our shareholders as expressed in their votes. The Board and compensation committee will consider the outcome of the vote when determining future compensation arrangements for our named executive officers.

The Board recommends a vote FOR Proposal 3, Advisory Vote on Named Executive Officer Compensation.

DIRECTOR COMPENSATION

The following table sets forth information concerning the compensation of our non-employee directors for their service during 2019. Mr. Rondeau receives no additional compensation for his service as a director. The compensation received by Mr. Rondeau as an employee during 2019 is included in the Summary Compensation Table above. As noted above, Ms. Anderson joined the Board in February 2020 and therefore is not included in the table below.

(1)	Except for Gov. Benson, each director elected to receive shares of Class A common stock in lieu of her or his respective annual cash retainer.

(2)

Represents the grant date fair value of restricted stock units with respect to shares of our Class A common stock, which were granted for service as a director in 2019, determined in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718, excluding the effect of estimated forfeitures. The underlying valuation assumptions are discussed in Note 14 to our consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2019, included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019. As of December 31, 2019, Mr. Berg held 1,274 unvested restricted stock units, Dr. Spinelli held 1,051 unvested restricted stock units, Ms. Rathke held 1,069 unvested restricted stock units, Gov. Benson held 1,026 unvested restricted stock units and Ms. Dunaway held 1,388 unvested restricted stock units.

Non-Employee Director Compensation Program

Pursuant to our non-employee director compensation program as in effect during 2019, each non-employee member of our Board is eligible to receive an annual cash retainer payment of $50,000 and an annual grant of restricted stock units with a targeted grant date fair market value of $80,000. The annual grant of restricted stock units generally vests in full on the first anniversary of the grant date, subject to the director’s continued service as a member of our Board through the vesting date. Under this program, eligible directors receive the following additional cash retainers on an annual basis for service as the Board chair—$55,000; audit committee chair—$15,000; compensation committee chair—$12,000; and nominating and corporate governance committee chair—$10,000. Eligible directors also receive annual cash retainers for service as members of the audit committee—$7,500 and members of the compensation committee—$5,000. Pursuant to our non-employee director compensation program, eligible directors may elect to receive fully vested shares of Class A common stock in lieu of their annual cash retainer payments. In 2019, each director, other than Gov. Benson, made such an election.

The Board has adopted stock ownership guidelines applicable to our non-employee directors and senior executive officers, described above, under which our non-employee directors are required to acquire and own stock or stock equivalents in an amount equal to five times the annual retainer for our non-employee directors. Pursuant to the stock ownership guidelines, our non-employee directors and senior executive officers must achieve their respective ownership requirements by the later of five years from the date of appointment, or five years from the adoption of the policy. As of December 31, 2019, each of our then current non-employee directors were in compliance with these guidelines. We anticipate that Ms. Anderson, who joined the Board in February 2020, will likewise meet the applicable ownership requirements within the required timeframe.

SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT

AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS

Beneficial Ownership

The following tables set forth information with respect to the beneficial ownership of our Class A common stock or Class B common stock for (a) each person, or group of affiliated persons, known by us to beneficially own more than 5% of our outstanding shares of Class A common stock and Class B common stock, as applicable, (b) each member of our Board, (c) each of our named executive officers, and (d) all of our directors and executive officers as a group. For our directors and officers, the information is as of March 3, 2020. For other stockholders who beneficially own more than 5% of our outstanding shares of Class A common stock or Class B common stock, the shares owned are as of the dates provided in the most recent filings made by such stockholder with the SEC.

Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with SEC rules. The information is not necessarily indicative of beneficial ownership for any other purpose. In general, under these rules a beneficial owner of a security includes any person who, directly or indirectly, through any contract, arrangement, understanding, relationship or otherwise has or shares voting power or investment power with respect to such security. A person is also deemed to be a beneficial owner of a security if that person has the right to acquire beneficial ownership of such security within 60 days. To our knowledge, except as otherwise indicated, and subject to applicable community property laws, the persons named in the table have sole voting and investment power with respect to all shares of Class A common stock and Class B common stock beneficially owned by that person.

In connection with the recapitalization transactions as part of our IPO, we issued to the owners of Holdings Units other than Planet Fitness, Inc. (the “Continuing LLC Owners”) one share of our Class B common stock for each Holdings Unit that they held. Each Continuing LLC Owner has the right to exchange their Holdings Units, along with a corresponding number of shares of our Class B common stock, for shares of our Class A common stock on a one-for-one basis. See “Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions.”

The percentage of shares beneficially owned is computed on the basis of 79,897,165 shares of our Class A common stock outstanding, and 6,532,170 shares of our Class B common stock outstanding as of March 3, 2020. Unless otherwise indicated below, the address for each beneficial owner listed is c/o Planet Fitness, Inc., 4 Liberty Lane West, Hampton, New Hampshire 03842.

Subject to the terms of the exchange agreement, the Holdings Units held by Continuing LLC Owners are exchangeable for shares of our Class A common stock on a one-for-one basis. See “Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions—Recapitalization transactions in connection with our IPO—Exchange agreement.” In these tables, beneficial ownership of Holdings Units has been reflected as beneficial ownership of shares of our Class A common stock for which such Holdings Units may be exchanged. When a Holdings Unit is exchanged by a Continuing LLC Owner who holds shares of Class B common stock, a corresponding share of Class B common stock will be canceled. Accordingly, in the first table above, the percentages of Class A common stock provided also reflect combined voting power for each respective beneficial owner.

(2)	Outstanding restricted stock units have no exercise price and are therefore excluded from the weighted average exercise price calculation. Had the outstanding restricted stock units been included in the calculation of the weighted average exercise price, the price would have been $24.16.

Delinquent Section 16(a) Reports

Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires that our directors, executive officers, and greater than 10% stockholders file reports with the SEC relating to their initial beneficial ownership of our securities and any subsequent changes. These reports are commonly referred to as Form 3, Form 4 and Form 5 reports. They must also provide us with copies of the reports.

Based solely on a review of the copies of such forms in our possession, and on written representations from the reporting persons, we believe that all of these reporting persons complied with their filing requirements for the year ended December 31, 2019, except that due to inadvertence Mr. Miller had one late Form 4 filing with respect to the sale of Class A common stock pursuant to a prior written election.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Franchisee relationships

Through his ownership interest in BL Technologies Investments, LLC Gov. Craig Benson entered into an ADA with us dated October 23, 2012, under which the developer is obligated to open 35 Planet Fitness stores and for which ADA fees were paid to us totaling $350,000. Eighteen stores have been opened pursuant to this ADA as of December 31, 2019. In 2019, the Company received royalty and other franchise-related fees under Gov. Benson’s FAs, which totaled approximately $2,341,987. The Company also received fees for equipment purchases for the clubs under Gov. Benson’s FAs, as required by the terms of his FAs. The equipment purchases for the clubs under Gov. Benson’s FAs totaled approximately $3,333,148 in 2019. The terms of Gov. Benson’s ADA and FAs are commensurate with other FAs executed under the same circumstances.

As of December 31, 2019, Chris Rondeau held 25% ownership of PF Principals, LLC, which has directly and indirectly provided financing to a limited number of qualified Planet Fitness franchisees to fund leasehold improvements and other related expenses, as one of several financing providers available to franchisees. Our Company does not participate in these transactions.

Other contractual relationships and transactions

Gov. Craig Benson is an approximately ten and one-half percent (10.5%) owner of Airpointe of New Hampshire, Inc. d/b/a Radianse Systems, which is an amenity tracking compliance software provider. We have engaged Radianse Systems to provide amenity tracking compliance software services to certain corporate-owned stores and to make this service available to all franchise locations. As of December 31, 2019, the Radianse software is being utilized at 71 corporate-owned stores and approximately 520 franchisee-owned stores. In 2019, we paid an aggregate of approximately $221,981 in fees to Radianse.

On May 3, 2019, the Company and other defendants received a joint and several judgment against them in the approximate amount of $6,300,000, inclusive of accrued interest, in a civil action brought by a former employee. As of December 31, 2019, the Company has estimated its obligation related to this matter to be approximately $1,260,000. In connection with the 2012 acquisition of Pla-Fit Holdings, LLC on November 8, 2012, the sellers are obligated to indemnify the Company related to this specific matter. Of the estimated $1,260,000, for which the Company has recorded an offsetting receivable, a total of $351,540 would be due from Chris Rondeau. Additionally, the Company has incurred, and may incur in the future, legal costs on behalf of the defendants in the case, including Chris Rondeau. These costs have not been and are not expected to be material in the future.

The Board has adopted a charter air transportation policy (the "Charter Policy"), which establishes the guidelines for business travel on charter aircraft. Among other things, the Charter Policy requires audit committee approval for all business travel using any charter aircraft owned by an officer, director or employee. In 2019, the Company incurred approximately $190,000 in total expenses for corporate business travel using a charter aircraft owned by Mr. Rondeau, which expenses were approved by the audit committee. All such travel was arranged through a third-party manager of Mr. Rondeau's aircraft, for which the Company paid market rates.

For further information, see Notes 2(a), 3, 12, 16 and 17 to our consolidated financial statements filed with our 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Recapitalization Transactions in Connection with our IPO

These summaries do not purport to be complete descriptions of all of the provisions of the documents relating to the recapitalization transactions, and they are qualified in their entirety by reference to the complete text of agreements which have been filed with the SEC. For information on how to obtain copies of these agreements or other exhibits, see the section entitled “Item 1, Business—Available information” in our 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Exchange agreement

In connection with our IPO, we and the Continuing LLC Owners entered into an exchange agreement under which they (or certain permitted transferees) have the right, from time to time and subject to the terms of the exchange agreement, to exchange their Holdings Units, together with a corresponding number of shares of Class B common stock, for shares of our Class A common stock on a one-for-one basis, subject to customary conversion rate adjustments for stock splits, stock dividends, reclassifications and other similar transactions. At our election, acting by a majority of the disinterested members of our Board pursuant to the exchange agreement, we may elect to redeem the Holdings Units for cash when tendered for exchange. The exchange agreement also provides that a Continuing LLC Owner will not have the right to exchange Holdings Units if we determine that such exchange would be prohibited by law or regulation or would violate other agreements with us to which the Continuing LLC Owner may be subject. As a Continuing LLC Owner exchanges Holdings Units for shares of Class A common stock, the number of Holdings Units held by Planet Fitness, Inc. is correspondingly increased as it acquires the exchanged Holdings Units, and a corresponding number of shares of Class B common stock are canceled. The parties to the Exchange Agreement amended the agreement on

August 30, 2016, to, among other things, permit management Holdings Unit-holders to exchange such Holdings Units at any time, from time to time, in accordance with applicable law, contractual obligations and Company policies.

Tax receivable agreements

Future and certain past exchanges of Holdings Units for shares of our Class A common stock (or cash) are expected to produce and have produced favorable tax attributes for us. We are a party to two tax receivable agreements. Under the first of those agreements, we are generally required to pay to certain existing and previous equity owners of Pla-Fit Holdings, LLC (the “TRA Holders”) 85% of the applicable cash savings, if any, in U.S. federal and state income tax that we are deemed to realize as a result of certain tax attributes of their Holdings Units sold to us (or exchanged in a taxable sale) and that are created as a result of (i) the sales of their Holdings Units for shares of our Class A common stock and (ii) tax benefits attributable to payments made under the tax receivable agreement (including imputed interest). Under the second tax receivable agreement, we are generally required to pay to TSG AIV II-A L.P and TSG PF Co-Investors A L.P. (the “Direct TSG Investors”) 85% of the amount of cash savings, if any, that we are deemed to realize as a result of the tax attributes of the Holdings Units that we held in respect of the Direct TSG Investors’ prior interest in us, which resulted from the Direct TSG Investors’ purchase of interests in our 2012 acquisition (the “2012 Acquisition”) by investment funds affiliated with TSG Consumer Partners, LLC (“TSG”), and certain other tax benefits. Under both agreements, we generally retain the benefit of the remaining 15% of the applicable tax savings.

The payment obligations under the tax receivable agreements are obligations of Planet Fitness, Inc., and we expect that the payments we will be required to make under the tax receivable agreements will be substantial. In December 2017, tax legislation was enacted that, among other things, reduced the federal corporate income tax rate to 21% effective January 1, 2018. Assuming no further material changes in the relevant tax law and that we earn sufficient taxable income to realize all tax benefits that are subject to the tax receivable agreements, we expect that the reduction in tax payments for us associated with all past and future exchanges and sales of Holdings Units as described above would aggregate to approximately $726.8 million over the remaining term of the tax receivable agreements based on a price of $74.68 per share of our Class A common stock (the closing price per share of our Class A common stock on the NYSE on December 31, 2019) and assuming all future sales had occurred on such date. Under such scenario, we would be required to pay the other parties to the tax receivable agreements 85% of such amount, or $617.8 million, over the applicable period under the tax receivable agreements. The actual amounts may materially differ from these hypothetical amounts, as potential future reductions in tax payments for us, and tax receivable agreement payments by us, will be calculated using the market value of our Class A common stock at the time of the sale and the prevailing tax rates applicable to us over the life of the tax receivable agreements and will be dependent on us generating sufficient future taxable income to realize the benefit. Payments under the tax receivable agreements are not conditioned on the TRA Holders’ ownership of our shares.

The actual increase in tax basis, as well as the amount and timing of any payments under these agreements, will vary depending upon a number of factors, including the timing of sales by the TRA Holders, the price of our Class A common stock at the time of the sales, whether such sales are taxable, the amount and timing of the taxable income we generate in the future, the tax rate then applicable and the portion of our payments under the tax receivable agreements constituting imputed interest. Payments under the tax receivable agreements are expected to give rise to certain additional tax benefits attributable to either further increases in basis or in the form of deductions for imputed interest (generally calculated using one-year LIBOR), depending on the tax receivable agreements and the circumstances. Any such benefits are covered by the tax receivable agreements and will increase the amounts due thereunder. The tax receivable agreements provide for interest, at a rate equal to one-year LIBOR, accrued from the due date (without extensions) of the corresponding tax return to the date of payment specified by the tax receivable agreements. In addition, under certain circumstances where we are unable to make timely payments under the tax receivable agreements, the tax receivable agreements provide for interest to accrue on unpaid payments, at a rate equal to one-year LIBOR plus 500 basis points.

Payments under the tax receivable agreements will be based on the tax reporting positions that we determine. Although we are not aware of any issue that would cause the IRS to challenge a tax basis increase or other tax attributes subject to the tax receivable agreements, we will not be reimbursed for any payments previously made under the tax receivable agreements if such basis increases or other benefits are subsequently disallowed. As a result, in certain circumstances, payments could be made under the tax receivable agreements in excess of the benefits that we are deemed to realize in respect of the attributes to which the tax receivable agreements relate.

The tax receivable agreements provide that (i) in the event that we materially breach such tax receivable agreements, (ii) if, at any time, we elect an early termination of the tax receivable agreements, or (iii) upon certain mergers, asset sales, other forms of business combinations or other changes of control, our (or our successor’s) obligations under the tax receivable agreements (with respect to all Holdings Units, whether or not they have been sold before or after such transaction) would accelerate and become payable in a lump sum amount equal to the present value of the anticipated future tax benefits calculated based on certain assumptions, including that we would have sufficient taxable income to fully utilize the deductions arising from the tax deductions, tax basis and other tax attributes subject to the tax receivable agreements.

As a result of the foregoing, (i) we could be required to make payments under the tax receivable agreements that are greater than or less than the specified percentage of the actual tax savings we realize in respect of the tax attributes subject to the agreements

and (ii) we may be required to make an immediate lump sum payment equal to the present value of the anticipated tax savings, which payment may be made years in advance of the actual realization of such future benefits, if any such benefits are ever realized. In these situations, our obligations under the tax receivable agreements could have a substantial negative impact on our liquidity and could have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing certain mergers, asset sales, other forms of business combinations or other changes of control. We may not be able to finance our obligations under the tax receivable agreements in a manner that does not adversely affect our working capital and growth requirements. For example, if we had elected to terminate the tax receivable agreements as of December 31, 2019, based on a share price of $74.68 per share of our Class A common stock (based on the closing price of our Class A common stock on the NYSE as of December 31, 2019) and a discount rate equal to 3.0%, we estimate that we would have been required to pay $491.1 million in the aggregate under the tax receivable agreements.

Funds used by Pla-Fit Holdings to satisfy its tax distribution obligations will not be available for reinvestment in our business. Moreover, the tax distributions that Pla-Fit Holdings will be required to make may be substantial and will likely exceed (as a percentage of Pla-Fit Holdings’ net income) the overall effective tax rate applicable to a similarly situated corporate taxpayer, particularly as a result of the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act.

As a result of potential differences in the amount of net taxable income allocable to us and to the owners of Holdings Units other than Planet Fitness, Inc. (the “Continuing LLC Owners”), as well as the use of an assumed tax rate in calculating Pla-Fit Holdings’ distribution obligations, we may receive distributions significantly in excess of our tax liabilities and obligations to make payments under the tax receivable agreements. To the extent we do not distribute such cash balances as dividends on our Class A common stock and instead, for example, hold such cash balances or lend them to Pla-Fit Holdings, the Continuing LLC Owners would benefit from any value attributable to such accumulated cash balances as a result of their ownership of Class A common stock following an exchange of their Holdings Units.

If the IRS or a state or local taxing authority challenges the tax basis adjustments and/or deductions that give rise to payments under the tax receivable agreements and the tax basis adjustments and/or deductions are subsequently disallowed, the recipients of payments under the agreements will not reimburse us for any payments we previously made to them. Any such disallowance would be taken into account in determining future payments under the tax receivable agreements and would, therefore, reduce the amount of any such future payments. Nevertheless, if the claimed tax benefits from the tax basis adjustments and/or deductions are disallowed, our payments under the tax receivable agreements could exceed our actual tax savings, and we may not be able to recoup payments under the tax receivable agreements that were calculated on the assumption that the disallowed tax savings were available.

Pla-Fit Holdings amended and restated limited liability company agreement

In connection with the recapitalization transactions related to our IPO, the limited liability company agreement of Pla-Fit Holdings was amended and restated August 5, 2015, which was subsequently amended July 1, 2017 (the “Pla-Fit Holdings LLC Agreement”). As a result of the recapitalization transactions and our IPO, we hold Holdings Units in Pla-Fit Holdings indirectly through wholly owned subsidiaries and are the sole managing member of Pla-Fit Holdings. Accordingly, we operate and control all of the business and affairs of Pla-Fit Holdings and, through Pla-Fit Holdings and its operating subsidiaries, conduct our business. Our principal asset is our ownership of Holdings Units in Pla-Fit Holdings. As such, we have no independent means of generating revenue. Pla-Fit Holdings is treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes and, as such, is generally not subject to U.S. federal income tax. Instead, taxable income is allocated to holders of its Holdings Units, including us. Accordingly, we incur income taxes on our allocable share of any taxable income of Pla-Fit Holdings, and also incur expenses related to our operations.

Pursuant to the Pla-Fit Holdings LLC Agreement, as managing member, Planet Fitness, Inc. has the right to determine when distributions will be made by Pla-Fit Holdings to holders of Holdings Units and the amount of any such distributions. If a distribution is authorized, such distribution will be made to the holder of Holdings Units (including Planet Fitness, Inc. and its subsidiaries) pro rata in accordance with the percentages of their respective Holdings Units.

The holders of Holdings Units, including Planet Fitness, Inc. and its subsidiaries, will incur U.S. federal, state and local income taxes on their allocable share (determined under relevant tax rules) of any taxable income of Pla-Fit Holdings. Net profits and net losses of Pla-Fit Holdings will generally be allocated to holders of Holdings Units (including Planet Fitness, Inc.) pro rata in accordance with the percentages of their respective Holdings Units, except to the extent certain rules provide for disproportionate allocations or are otherwise required under applicable tax law.

The Pla-Fit Holdings LLC Agreement provides that Pla-Fit Holdings will make cash distributions, which we refer to as “tax distributions,” to the holders of Holdings Units. Generally, these tax distributions will be computed based on the net taxable income of Pla-Fit Holdings allocable to the holders of Holdings Units multiplied by an assumed, combined tax rate equal to the maximum rate applicable to an individual or corporate resident in Hampton, New Hampshire (taking into account, among other things, the deductibility of certain expenses and certain adjustments relating to the calculation of state taxes). For purposes of determining the taxable income of Pla-Fit Holdings, such determination will be made by generally disregarding any adjustment to the taxable income of any member of Pla-Fit Holdings that arises under the tax basis adjustment rules of the Code, and is attributable to the

acquisition by such member of an interest in Pla-Fit Holdings in future exchange or sale transactions. We expect Pla-Fit Holdings may make tax distributions periodically to the extent permitted by our agreements governing our indebtedness and necessary to enable us to cover our operating expenses and other obligations, including our tax liability and obligations under the tax receivable agreements, as well as to make dividend payments, if any, to the holders of our Class A common stock.

The Pla-Fit Holdings LLC Agreement also provides that substantially all expenses incurred by or attributable to Planet Fitness, Inc. will be borne or reimbursed by Pla-Fit Holdings, but Pla-Fit Holdings will not bear the cost of our income tax expenses, obligations incurred by us under the tax receivable agreements or payments on indebtedness incurred by us other than to pay operating expenses that otherwise would be borne by Pla-Fit Holdings.

We have caused Pla-Fit Holdings to make distributions in an amount sufficient to allow us to pay our taxes and operating expenses, including ordinary course payments due under the tax receivable agreements. However, its ability to make such distributions in the future will be subject to various limitations and restrictions, including contractual restrictions under our senior secured credit facility. If, as a consequence of these various limitations and restrictions, we do not have sufficient funds to pay tax or other liabilities or to fund our operations (including as a result of an acceleration of our obligations under the tax receivable agreements), we may have to borrow funds and thus our liquidity and financial condition could be materially and adversely affected. To the extent that we are unable to make payments under the tax receivable agreements for any reason, such payments will be deferred and will accrue interest at a rate equal to one-year LIBOR plus 500 basis points until paid.

Registration rights agreement

In connection with the recapitalization transactions related to our IPO, we entered into a registration rights agreement with all of the Continuing LLC Owners and Direct TSG Investors, which include certain employees and directors that hold Holdings Units. The registration rights agreement provides Christopher Rondeau with certain demand registration rights, including shelf registration rights, in respect of any shares of our Class A common stock held by him, subject to certain conditions. In addition, in the event that we register additional shares of Class A common stock for sale to the public, we will be required to give notice of such registration to certain employees and directors party to the agreement of our intention to effect such a registration, and, subject to certain limitations, include shares of Class A common stock held by them in such registration. We will be required to bear the registration expenses, other than underwriting discounts and commissions and transfer taxes, associated with any registration of shares pursuant to the agreement. The agreement includes customary indemnification provisions in favor of the employees and directors party to the agreement, any person who is or might be deemed a control person (within the meaning of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act) and related parties against certain losses and liabilities (including reasonable costs of investigation and legal expenses) arising out of or based upon any filing or other disclosure made by us under the securities laws relating to any such registration. The parties to the Registration Rights Agreement amended the agreement on August 30, 2016 to, among other things, provide that we are not obligated to file a registration statement with respect to the exchange of Holdings Units and Class B common stock for Class A common stock.

Indemnification Agreements

Prior to the completion of our IPO, we entered into indemnification agreements with each of our then-serving directors. We have since entered into indemnification agreements with each new director who has joined our Board after completion of our IPO. These agreements require us to indemnify these individuals and, in certain cases, affiliates of such individuals, to the fullest extent permissible under Delaware law against liabilities that may arise by reason of their service to us or at our direction, and to advance expenses incurred as a result of any proceeding against them as to which they could be indemnified. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, we have been informed that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy and is therefore unenforceable.

Related Person Transactions Policy

We have adopted a policy with respect to the review, approval and ratification of related person transactions. Under the policy, our audit committee is responsible for reviewing and approving related person transactions. In the course of its review and approval of related person transactions, our audit committee will consider the relevant facts and circumstances to decide whether to approve such transactions, including whether the transaction is on terms no less favorable than terms generally available to an unaffiliated third party under the same or similar circumstances and the extent of the related person’s interest in the transaction. Related person transactions must be approved or ratified by the audit committee based on full information about the proposed transaction and the related person’s interest.

AUDIT COMMITTEE REPORT
