On December 16, 2025, Grindr Inc. (the “Company”), entered into an Amendment No. 1 (the “Amendment”), with Grindr Capital LLC, a subsidiary of the Company (the “Borrower”), certain other wholly owned domestic subsidiaries of the Company, the lenders party thereto (the “Lenders”) and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent for the Lenders (the “Agent”), which amends the Company’s existing Credit Agreement, dated as of November 28, 2023 (the “Existing Credit Agreement” and as amended, the “Amended Credit Agreement”), by and among the Borrower, the Company and certain other subsidiaries party thereto, certain Lenders party thereto and the Agent.

 

Pursuant to the Amendment, among other things, (i) the senior secured term loan facility under the Existing Credit Agreement has been increased from $300.0 million to $400.0 million (the “Term Loan Facility”); (ii) the senior secured revolving credit facility under the Existing Credit Agreement has been increased from $50.0 million to $200.0 million (the “Revolving Facility”) and the letter of credit sublimit thereunder has been increased from $15.0 million to $45.0 million; and (iii) the maturity date of the Term Loan Facility and the Revolving Facility has been extended from November 28, 2028, to January 1, 2031.

 

The Term Loan Facility will amortize on a quarterly basis at 1.25% of the aggregate principal amount outstanding as of the closing date of the Amendment, with payments due on the last business day of each March, June, September and December (commencing March 31, 2026) until the maturity date.  Any borrowing under the Revolving Facility may be repaid, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time without any other premium or penalty, and any amounts repaid may be reborrowed, in each case, until the maturity date.

 

On December 16, 2025, the Borrower borrowed the full amount of the Term Loan Facility and used a portion of the proceeds to repay in full outstanding obligations under the Existing Credit Agreement and to pay related fees and expenses. As of December 16, 2025, there is no outstanding borrowing under the Revolving Facility. The remaining proceeds of the Term Loan Facility and any future borrowings under the Revolving Facility may be used for working capital and general corporate purposes, including permitted acquisitions and any other use not prohibited by the Amended Credit Agreement and related agreements.

 

The foregoing description of the Amended Credit Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety to the full text of the Amendment, which is attached as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated by reference herein.

 

 

The information set forth above under “Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.” is hereby incorporated by reference into this Item 2.03.
