Item 1.01          Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

On November 28, 2023, Grindr Inc. (the “Company”), entered into a credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”), with Grindr Capital LLC, a subsidiary of the Company (the “Borrower”), certain other wholly owned domestic subsidiaries of the Company, the lenders party thereto and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent (the “Agent”), swingline lender and an issuing bank.  All obligations of the Borrower under the Credit Agreement are, subject to certain limited exceptions, guaranteed by the Company and certain of the Company’s present and future wholly owned domestic subsidiaries (collectively the “Guarantors”) and secured by substantially all of the assets of the Company and Guarantors.

The Credit Agreement provides for (i) a $300.0 million senior secured term loan facility (the “Term Loan Facility”) and (ii) a $50.0 million senior secured revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Facility” and, together with the Term Loan Facility, the “Credit Facilities”) (with a $15.0 million letter of credit sublimit and a $10.0 million swingline loan sublimit).  The Borrower has the option to request that lenders increase the amount available under the Revolving Facility by, or obtain incremental term loans of, up to $100.0 million, subject to the terms of the Credit Agreement and only if existing or new lenders choose to provide additional term or revolving commitments.

On November 28, 2023, the Borrower borrowed the full amount of the Term Loan Facility and $44.4 million under the Revolving Facility.  Proceeds from the initial drawings under the Credit Facilities and cash on hand were used to repay in full outstanding obligations under the Fortress Credit Agreement (as defined below) and to pay fees, premiums, costs and expenses, including fees payable in connection with the Credit Agreement.  Borrowings under the Revolving Facility after the closing date may be used for working capital and general corporate purposes, including permitted acquisitions and any other use not prohibited by the Credit Agreement and related agreements.

Borrowings under the Credit Agreement (other than swingline loans) bear interest at a rate equal to either, at the Borrower’s option, (i) the highest of the Prime Rate (as defined in the Credit Agreement), the Federal Funds Rate (as defined in the Credit Agreement) plus 0.50%, or one-month Term SOFR (as defined in the Credit Agreement) plus 1.00% (the “Alternate Base Rate”) or (ii) Term SOFR, in each case plus an applicable margin ranging from 2.75% to 3.25% with respect to Term SOFR borrowings and 1.75% to 2.25% with respect to Alternate Base Rate borrowings.  Swingline loans under the Credit Agreement bear interest at the Alternate Base Rate plus the applicable margin. The applicable margin will be based upon the total net leverage ratio of the Company and its subsidiaries. The Borrower will also be required to pay a commitment fee for the unused portion of the Revolving Facility, which will range from 0.375% to 0.50% per annum, depending on the total net leverage ratio of the Company and its subsidiaries. In addition to the foregoing unused commitment fee, the Borrower is required to pay certain letter of credit and related fronting fees and other administrative fees pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement.

The Term Loan Facility will amortize on a quarterly basis at 1.25% of the aggregate principal amount outstanding as of the initial closing date of the Credit Agreement, with payments due on the last business day of each March, June, September and December (commencing March 29, 2024) until the final maturity date on November 28, 2028.  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 November 28, 2028. Mandatory prepayments are required under the revolving loans when borrowings and letter of credit usage exceed the aggregate revolving commitments of all lenders. Mandatory prepayments are also required in connection with (i) certain asset dispositions and casualty events, in each case, to the extent the proceeds of such dispositions or casualty events exceed certain individual and aggregate thresholds and are not reinvested and (ii) unpermitted debt transactions.

The Credit Agreement contains certain customary representations and warranties, and notice requirements for the occurrence of specific events such as the occurrence of any event of default or pending or threatened litigation. The Credit Agreement also requires compliance with certain customary financial covenants consisting of a maximum total net leverage ratio and minimum fixed charge coverage ratio. The Credit Agreement contains certain customary restrictive covenants regarding indebtedness, liens, fundamental changes, investments, restricted payments, disposition of assets, transactions with affiliates, hedging transactions, certain prepayments of indebtedness, amendments to organizational documents and sale and leaseback transactions.

The Credit Agreement contains certain customary events of default, which include (subject to grace periods in certain instances) the failure to make payments when due thereunder, the material inaccuracy of representations or warranties, failure to observe or perform certain covenants, cross-defaults, bankruptcy and insolvency-related events, certain judgments, certain ERISA-related events, failure of any lien created under the Collateral Documents (as defined in the Credit Agreement) to be valid and perfected (subject to certain exceptions), failure of any material guarantee of the obligations under the Loan Documents to be in full force and effect and the occurrence of a change in control of the Company. If an event of default has occurred and continues beyond any applicable cure period, all outstanding obligations under the Credit Agreement may be accelerated or the commitments may be terminated, amongst other remedies. Additionally, the lenders are not obligated to fund any new borrowing under the Credit Agreement while an event of default is continuing.

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

Item 1.02.

Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement

On November 28, 2023, the Company terminated that certain credit agreement, dated as of June 10, 2020 (as amended from time to time, the “Fortress Credit Agreement”), by and among, inter alios, the Company, the Borrower, Fortress Credit Corp., as administrative agent and collateral agent, including the release of all guarantees and liens related thereto in connection with entering into the Credit Agreement and repaying in full all outstanding obligations of the Fortress Credit Agreement.

The information included in Item 1.01 of this Current Report is incorporated by reference into this Item 2.03.
