(1)	On March 14, 2017, (i) TSG PF Investment LLC ("Investment") exchanged 8,606,892 Common Units of Pla-Fit Holdings, LLC ("Holding Units") and 8,606,892 shares of Class B common stock of Planet Fitness, Inc. (the "Company") for 8,606,892 shares of Class A common stock of the Company, and substantially simultaneously sold all 8,606,892 shares of Class A common stock of the Company to the underwriter in the Company's secondary offering, which closed on March 14, 2017 (the "Offering"), and (ii) TSG PF Investment II LLC ("Investment II") exchanged 1,377,350 Holding Units and 1,377,350 shares of Class B common stock of the Company for 1,377,350 shares of Class A common stock of the Company, and substantially simultaneously sold all 1,377,350 shares of Class A common stock of the Company to the underwriter in the Offering.
(2)	(Continued from Footnote 1) Following such sales, Investment holds 9,370,304 Holding Units and 9,370,304 shares of Class B common stock of the Company and Investment II holds 1,499,515 Holding Units and 1,499,515 shares of Class B common stock of the Company.
