TOWN SPORTS INTERNATIONAL HOLDINGS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(In thousands except share and per share data)
(Unaudited)
1. Basis of Presentation
As of March 31, 2011, Town Sports International Holdings, Inc. (the Company or TSI
Holdings), through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Town Sports International, LLC (TSI, LLC),
operated 159 fitness clubs (clubs) comprised of 107 clubs in the New York metropolitan market
under the New York Sports Clubs brand name, 25 clubs in the Boston market under the Boston
Sports Clubs brand name, 18 clubs (two of which are partly-owned) in the Washington, D.C. market
under the Washington Sports Clubs brand name, six clubs in the Philadelphia market under the
Philadelphia Sports Clubs brand name and three clubs in Switzerland. The Companys operating
segments are New York Sports Clubs, Boston Sports Clubs, Philadelphia Sports Clubs, Washington
Sports Clubs and Swiss Sports Clubs. The Company has determined that our operating segments have
similar economic characteristics and meet the criteria which permit them to be aggregated into one
reportable segment.
The condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by the
Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the
SEC). The condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the
Companys December 31, 2010 consolidated financial statements and notes thereto, included in the
Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010. The year-end condensed
balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all
disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America
(US GAAP). Certain information and footnote disclosures that are normally included in financial
statements prepared in accordance with US GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to SEC rules
and regulations. The information reflects all adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are
necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and results of operations for the
interim periods set forth herein. The results for the three months ended March 31, 2011 are not
necessarily indicative of the results for the entire year ending December 31, 2011.
2. Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In October 2009, the FASB issued new accounting guidance related to the revenue recognition of
multiple element arrangements. The new guidance states that if vendor specific objective evidence
or third party evidence for deliverables in an arrangement cannot be determined, companies will be
required to develop a best estimate of the selling price to separate deliverables and allocate
arrangement consideration using the relative selling price method. The guidance became effective in
the first quarter of 2011. Prior to the first quarter of 2011, the Company allocated revenue from
multiple-element arrangements to the multiple elements based on the relative fair value of each
element, which was generally based on the relative sales price of each element when sold
separately. Because selling price is generally available based on standalone sales, the Company has
limited application of third party evidence, as determined by comparison of pricing for products
and services to the pricing of similar products and services as offered by the Company or its
competitors in standalone sales to similarly situated customers. Thus, the new accounting guidance
had no impact to the Companys financial position or operating results for the three months ended
March 31, 2011, or year ended or interim periods of the year ended December 31, 2010.

Senior Discount Notes
On February 4, 2004, TSI Holdings completed an offering of the 11% senior discount notes
due in 2014 (the Senior Discount Notes). TSI Holdings received a total of $124,807 in connection
with this issuance. Fees and expenses related to this transaction totaled approximately $4,378. No
cash interest was required to be paid prior to February 1, 2009. The accreted value of each Senior
Discount Note increased from the date of issuance until February 1, 2009, at a rate of 11.0% per
annum compounded semi-annually. As of February 1, 2009, the accreted value of the Senior Discount
Notes equaled its principal maturity value of $138,450. Subsequent to February 1, 2009, cash
interest on the Senior Discount Notes has and will accrue and be payable semi-annually in arrears
February 1 and August 1 of each year, commencing August 1, 2009. The Senior Discount Notes are
structurally subordinated and effectively rank junior to all indebtedness of TSI, LLC. The debt of
TSI Holdings is not guaranteed by TSI, LLC and TSI Holdings relies on the cash flows of TSI, LLC,
subject to restrictions contained in the indenture governing the Senior Discount Notes, to service
its debt.
2007 Senior Credit Facility
On February 27, 2007, the Company entered into a $260,000 senior secured credit facility (the
2007 Senior Credit Facility). The 2007 Senior Credit Facility consists of an $185,000 term loan
facility (the Term Loan Facility) and originally consisted of a $75,000 revolving credit facility
(the Revolving Loan Facility).
On July 15, 2009, the Company and TSI, LLC entered into the First Amendment to the 2007 Senior
Credit Facility (the Amendment), which amended the definition of Consolidated EBITDA as defined
in the 2007 Senior Credit Facility, to permit TSI, LLC (as Borrower), solely for purposes of
determining compliance with the maximum total leverage ratio covenant, to add back the amount of
non-cash charges relating to the impairment or write-down of fixed assets, intangible assets and
goodwill. The Amendment also reduced the total Revolving Loan Facility by 15%, from $75,000 to
$63,750.
Borrowings under the Term Loan Facility, at TSI, LLCs option, bear interest at either the
administrative agents base rate plus 0.75% or its Eurodollar rate plus 1.75%, each as defined in
the 2007 Senior Credit Facility. As of March 31, 2011, the interest rate was 2.1%. The Term Loan
Facility matures on the earlier of February 27, 2014, or August 1, 2013, if the Senior Discount
Notes are still outstanding. TSI, LLC is required to repay 0.25% of principal, or $463 per quarter.
The 2007 Senior Credit Facility contains provisions that require Excess Cash Flow payments, as
defined, to be applied against outstanding Term Loan Facility balances. The Applicable Excess Cash
Flow Repayment Percentage is applied to the Excess Cash Flow when determining the Excess Cash Flow
payment. Earnings, changes in working capital and capital expenditure levels all impact the
determination of any excess cash flows. The Applicable Excess Cash Flow Repayment Percentage is 50%
when the Senior Secured Leverage Ratio, as defined, exceeds 2.00 to 1.00. The Companys Secured
Leverage Ratio, as calculated for purposes of the 2007 Credit Agreement, was 2.63:1.00 as of
December 31, 2010 and as a result, on March 31, 2011, an Excess Cash Flow payment of $13,599 was
made. As of March 31, 2011, the Company had paid $20,999 of the outstanding principal.
The Revolving Loan Facility expires on February 27, 2012 and borrowings under the facility
currently, at TSI, LLCs option, bear interest at the administrative agents base rate plus 1.25%
or the Eurodollar rate plus 2.25%, as defined in the 2007 Senior Credit Facility. The Revolving
Loan Facility contains a maximum total leverage covenant ratio of 4.25:1.00, which covenant is
subject to compliance, on a consolidated basis, only during the period in which borrowings and
letters of credit are outstanding thereunder. As of March 31, 2011, the Companys leverage ratio
was 2.32:1.00. As of March 31, 2011, there were no outstanding Revolving Loan Facility borrowings
and outstanding letters of credit issued totalled $9,650. The unutilized portion of the Revolving
Loan Facility as of March 31, 2011 was $54,100.
See Note 11 Subsequent Events for further disclosure related to the Companys long-term
debt.
Fair Market Value
Based on quoted market prices, the Senior Discount Notes and the Term Loan Facility had a fair
value of approximately $140,527 and $159,081, respectively at March 31, 2011 and $137,066 and
$168,270, respectively at December 31, 2010.

4. Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk
consist of cash and cash equivalents. Although the Company deposits its cash with more than one
financial institution, as of March 31, 2011, $32,400 of the cash balance of $45,233 was held at one
financial institution. The Company has not experienced any losses on cash and cash equivalent
accounts to date and the Company believes that, based on the credit ratings of the aforementioned
institutions, it is not exposed to any significant credit risk related to cash at this time.
5. Earnings (Loss) Per Share
Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) applicable to common
stockholders by the weighted average numbers of shares of common stock outstanding during the
period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed similarly to basic earnings (loss) per share,
except that the denominator is increased for the assumed exercise of dilutive stock options and
unvested restricted stock using the treasury stock method.

For the three months ended March 31, 2011, the Company did not include stock options to
purchase 680,214 shares of the Companys common stock in the calculations of diluted EPS because
the exercise prices of those options were greater than the average market price and their inclusion
would be anti-dilutive.
For the three months ended March 31, 2010, there was no effect of dilutive stock options and
restricted common stock on the calculation of diluted loss per share as the Company reported a net
loss for this period.
6. Common Stock and Stock-Based Compensation
The Companys 2006 Stock Incentive Plan, as amended and restated (the 2006 Plan), authorizes
the Company to issue up to 2,500,000 shares of Common Stock to employees, non-employee directors
and consultants pursuant to awards of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock,
in payment of performance shares or other stock-based awards. Under the 2006 Plan, stock options
must be granted at a price not less than the fair market value of the stock on the date the option
is granted, generally are not subject to re-pricing, and will not be exercisable more than ten
years after the date of grant. Options granted under the 2006 Plan generally qualify as
non-qualified stock options under the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. The 2006
Plan was approved by stockholders at the 2008 Annual Meeting of Stockholders on May 15, 2008.
Certain options granted under the Companys 2004 Common Stock Option Plan, as amended (the 2004
Plan), generally qualify as incentive stock options under the U.S. Internal Revenue Code; the
exercise price of a stock option granted under this plan may not be less than the fair market value
of Common Stock on the option grant date.
The proposed Amended and Restated 2006 Stock Incentive Plan was unanimously adopted by the
Board of Directors, subject to stockholder approval at the Annual Meeting of Stockholders on May
12, 2011, and, if approved, will increase the
8
aggregate number of shares issuable under the plan by 500,000 shares to 3,000,000 shares.
At March 31, 2011, the Company had 131,320 stock options outstanding under the 2004 Plan and
2,063,512 shares of restricted stock and stock options outstanding under the 2006 Plan.

The total compensation expense, classified within Payroll and related on the condensed
consolidated statements of operations, related to options outstanding under the 2006 Plan and the
2004 Plan was $264 for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and $347 for the three months ended
March 31, 2010.
As of March 31, 2011, a total of $1,467 in unrecognized compensation cost related to stock
options is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.9 years.
Restricted Stock Awards
On March 1, 2011, the Company issued 64,000 shares of restricted stock to employees. The fair
value per share was $4.57, the closing stock price on the date of grant. These shares will vest 25%
per year over four years on the anniversary date of the grant. There was no restricted stock
awarded during the three months ended March 31, 2010.
The total compensation expense, classified within Payroll and related expense on the condensed
consolidated statements of operations, related to restricted stock granted under the 2006 Plan and
the 2004 Plan was $14 for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and $9 for the three months ended
March 31, 2010.
As of March 31, 2011, a total of $289 in unrecognized compensation expense related to
restricted stock awards is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 3.8 years.
Stock Grants
In the three months ended March 31, 2011, the Company issued shares of common stock to members
of the Companys Board of Directors as payment of their annual and quarterly retention. The total

7. Fixed Asset Impairment and Club Closures
Fixed assets are evaluated for impairment periodically whenever events or changes in
circumstances indicate that related carrying amounts may not be recoverable from undiscounted cash
flows in accordance with FASB released guidance. The Companys long-lived assets and liabilities
are grouped at the individual club level which is the lowest level for which there is identifiable
cash flow. To the extent that estimated future undiscounted net cash flows attributable to the
assets are less than the carrying amount, an impairment charge equal to the difference between the
carrying value of such asset and its fair value is recognized. In the three months ended March 31,
2011, the Company tested 12 underperforming clubs and no impairments were found. The 12 clubs had
an aggregate of $19,067 of net leasehold improvements and furniture and fixtures remaining as of
March 31, 2011. In the three months ended March 31, 2010, we recorded a total of $389 of impairment
charges at two clubs. The impairment charges are included as a separate line in operating income on
the condensed consolidated statement of operations.
The fair values of fixed assets evaluated for impairment were calculated using Level 3 inputs
using discounted cash flows, which are based on internal budgets and forecasts through the end of
each respective lease. The most significant assumptions in those budgets and forecasts relate to
estimated membership and ancillary revenue, attrition rates, and maintenance capital expenditures,
which are estimated at approximately 3% of total revenues. There are
no non-financial assets and
liabilities that are reported at fair value on a non-recurring basis in the accompanying condensed
consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2011.
8. Goodwill and Other Intangibles
Goodwill has been allocated to reporting units that closely reflect the regions served by our
four trade names: New York Sports Clubs (NYSC), Boston Sports Clubs (BSC), Washington Sports
Clubs (WSC) and Philadelphia Sports Clubs (PSC), with certain more remote clubs that do not
benefit from a regional cluster being considered single reporting units (Outlier Clubs) and our
three clubs located in Switzerland being considered a single reporting unit (SSC). The Company
has one Outlier Club with goodwill. As of March 31, 2011, the BSC, WSC and PSC regions do not have
goodwill balances.
As of February 28, 2011 and 2010, the Company performed its annual impairment test. The
February 28, 2011 and 2010 impairment tests supported the recorded goodwill balances and as such no
impairment of goodwill was required. The valuation of reporting units requires assumptions and
estimates of many critical factors, including revenue and market growth, operating cash flows and
discount rates.
Goodwill impairment testing is a two-step process. Step 1 involves comparing the fair value of
the Companys reporting units to their carrying amounts. If the fair value of the reporting unit is
greater than its carrying amount, there is no impairment. If the reporting units carrying amount
is greater than the fair value, the second step must be completed to measure the amount of
impairment, if any. Step 2 calculates the implied fair value of goodwill by deducting the fair
value of all tangible and intangible assets, excluding goodwill, of the reporting unit from the
fair value of the reporting unit as determined in Step 1. The implied fair value of goodwill
determined in this step is compared to the carrying value of goodwill. If the implied fair value of
goodwill is less than the carrying value of goodwill, an impairment loss is recognized equal to the
difference. The Company did not have a goodwill impairment charge in the reporting units with
remaining goodwill as a result of the interim test given the profitability of these units.
Fair value was determined by using a weighted combination of two market-based approaches
(weighted 50% collectively) and an income approach (weighted 50%), as this combination was deemed
to be the most indicative of the Companys fair value in an orderly transaction between market
participants. Under the market-based approaches, the Company utilized information regarding the
Company, the Companys industry as well as publicly available industry information to determine
earnings multiples and sales multiples that are used to value the Companys reporting units. Under
the income approach, the Company determined fair value based on estimated future cash flows of each
reporting unit, discounted by an estimated weighted-average cost of capital, which reflects the
overall level of inherent risk of a reporting unit and the rate of return an outside investor would
expect to earn. Determining the fair value of a reporting unit is judgmental in nature and requires
the use of significant estimates and assumptions, including revenue growth rates and operating
margins, discount rates and future market conditions, among others.
Solely for purposes of establishing inputs for the fair value calculations described above
related to goodwill impairment testing, the Company made the following assumptions. The Company
developed long-range financial forecasts (five years or
10
longer) for all reporting units. The Company used discount rates ranging between 12.9% and 20% (the
NYSC reporting unit used a 14.1% discount rate), compounded annual revenue growth ranging from 0.5%
to 4.1% and terminal growth rates ranging between 0.4% and 2.8%. These assumptions were calculated
separately for each reporting unit. There can be no assurance that the Companys estimates and
assumptions made for purposes of the Companys goodwill impairment testing as of February 28, 2011
will prove to be accurate predictions of the future. If the Companys assumptions regarding
forecasted revenue or margin growth rates of certain reporting units are not achieved, the Company
may be required to record additional goodwill impairment charges in future periods, whether in
connection with the Companys next annual impairment testing as of February 28, 2012 or prior to
that, if any such change constitutes a triggering event outside the quarter when the annual
goodwill impairment test is performed. It is not possible at this time to determine if any such
future impairment charge would result. As of February 28, 2011, the estimated fair value of NYSC
was 49% greater than book value and the estimated fair value of SSC was 79% greater than book
value.
The changes in the carrying amount of goodwill from January 1, 2010 through March 31, 2011 are
detailed in the charts below.

9. Income Taxes
The Company determined its income tax provision for the three months ended March 31, 2011 by
estimating its 2011 effective annual tax rate. This is a change from how the Company determined
its income tax provision/(benefit) in each of the quarterly reporting periods in 2010. In each of
the quarterly reporting periods, the Company could not reliably estimate its 2010 effective annual
tax rate because small changes in annual estimated income before provision for corporate income
taxes (pre-tax results) could have had a significant impact on our annual estimated effective tax
rate. Accordingly, in 2010 the Company calculated its effective tax rate based on pre-tax results
through the three months ended March 31, 2010. The 2010 annual effective tax rate as of the year
ended December 31, 2010 was (33)%.
11
The Company recorded a provision for corporate income taxes of $529 for the three months ended
March 31, 2011 compared to a benefit of $1,100 for the three months ended March 31, 2010. The
Companys effective tax rate was 26% in the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to (60)% in
the three months ended March 31, 2010. The expected benefits from the Companys Captive Insurance
arrangement adjusted the Companys effective tax rate on the Companys pre-tax income in the three
months ended March 31, 2011 from 43% to 26% and changed the Companys effective tax rate on the
pre-tax loss for the three months ended March 31, 2010 from (40)% to (60)%.
As of March 31, 2011, $751 represents the amount of unrecognized tax benefits that, if
recognized, would affect the Companys effective tax rate in 2011. Such amount could be realized
by the Company since the income tax returns may no longer be subject to audit during 2011.
The Company recognizes both interest accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits and
penalties in income tax expense, if deemed applicable. As of March 31, 2011, the amount accrued for
interest was $210.
The Company files Federal income tax returns, a foreign jurisdiction return and multiple state
and local jurisdiction tax returns. The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) examined the Companys
2006 and 2007 Federal income tax returns and concluded those audits with no findings. The Company
is no longer subject to examinations of its Federal income tax returns by the IRS for the years
2007 and prior. The IRS is currently examining the Companys 2008 and 2009 Federal income tax
returns. The following state and local jurisdictions are currently examining the Companys
respective returns for the years indicated: New York State (2006, 2007), New York City (2006, 2007,
2008), and Connecticut (2007, 2008). The Company has not been notified of any findings regarding
any of these examinations.
As of March 31, 2011, the Company has net deferred tax assets of $41,365. Quarterly, the
Company assesses the weight of all available positive and negative evidence to determine whether
the net deferred tax asset is realizable. In 2010 the Company incurred a slight loss, but returned
to profitability in Q1 2011. The Company has historically been a taxpayer and expects that it will
be in a three year cumulative income position, excluding non-recurring items, as of December 31,
2011. In addition, the Company, based on recent trends, projects improved performance and future
income sufficient to realize the deferred tax assets during the periods when the temporary tax
deductible differences reverse. The Company has Federal and state net operating loss
carry-forwards which the Company believes will be realized within the available carry-forward
period, except for a small operating loss carry-forward in Rhode Island due to the short
carry-forward period in that state. Accordingly, the Company concluded that it is more likely than
not that the deferred tax assets will be realized. If actual results do not meet the Companys
forecasts and the Company incurs lower than expected income or losses in 2011, then a valuation
allowance against the deferred tax assets may be required in the future. In addition, with
exception of the deductions related to the Companys captive insurance for state taxes, state
taxable income has been and is projected to be the same as Federal. Because the Company expects the
captive insurance company to be discontinued in 2012, the assessment of the realizability of the
state deferred tax assets is consistent with the Federal tax analysis above. The state net
deferred tax asset balance as of March 31, 2011 is $21,265.
10. Contingencies
On or about March 1, 2005, in an action styled Sarah Cruz, et al v. Town Sports International,
d/b/a New York Sports Club, plaintiffs commenced a purported class action against TSI, LLC in the
Supreme Court, New York County, seeking unpaid wages and alleging that TSI, LLC violated various
overtime provisions of the New York State Labor Law with respect to the payment of wages to certain
trainers and assistant fitness managers. On or about June 18, 2007, the same plaintiffs commenced a
second purported class action against TSI, LLC in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, New
York County, seeking unpaid wages and alleging that TSI, LLC violated various wage payment and
overtime provisions of the New York State Labor Law with respect to the payment of wages to all New
York purported hourly employees. On September 17, 2010, TSI, LLC made motions to dismiss the class
action allegations of both lawsuits for plaintiffs failure to timely file motions to certify the
class actions. Oral argument on the motions occurred on November 10, 2010. A decision is still
pending. While we are unable at this time to estimate the likelihood of an unfavorable outcome or
the potential loss to TSI, LLC in the event of such an outcome, we intend to contest these cases
vigorously. Depending upon the ultimate outcome, these matters may have a material adverse effect
on TSI, LLCs and the Companys consolidated results of operations or cash flows.
On September 22, 2009, in an action styled Town Sports International, LLC v. Ajilon Solutions, a
division of Ajilon Professional Staffing LLC (Supreme Court of the State of New York, New York
County, 602911-09), TSI, LLC brought an action in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, New
York County, against Ajilon for breach of contract, conversion and replevin, seeking, among other
things, money damages against Ajilon for breaching its agreement to design and deliver
12
to TSI, LLC a new sports club enterprise management system known as GIMS, including failing to
provide copies of the computer source code written for GIMS, related documentation, properly
identified requirements documents and other property owned and licensed by TSI, LLC. Subsequently,
on October 14, 2009, Ajilon brought a counterclaim against TSI, LLC alleging breach of contract,
alleging, among other things, failure to pay outstanding invoices in the amount of $2,900. On
March 3, 2011, Ajilon amended its counterclaims to include claims for breach of contract and unjust
enrichment. On March 7, 2011, TSI amended its complaint against Ajilon to add new allegations and
claims for fraudulent inducement, negligent misrepresentation, fraud, and breach of the implied
covenant of good faith and fair dealing (the additional claims). On March 28, 2011, Ajilon moved
to dismiss the additional claims; TSI is preparing its opposition and the motion is still pending.
Other than the pending dismissal motion, the litigation is currently in the discovery phase. We
believe at this time the likelihood of an unfavorable outcome is not probable. TSI, LLC intends to
prosecute vigorously its claims against Ajilon and defend against Ajilons counterclaims.
On February 7, 2007, in an action styled White Plains Plaza Realty, LLC v. TSI, LLC et al.,
the landlord of one of TSI, LLCs former health and fitness clubs filed a lawsuit in state court
against it and two of its health club subsidiaries alleging, among other things, breach of lease in
connection with the decision to close the club located in a building owned by the plaintiff and
leased to a subsidiary of TSI, LLC, and take additional space in the nearby facility leased by
another subsidiary of TSI, LLC. The trial court granted the landlord damages against its tenant in
the amount of approximately $700, including interest and costs (Initial Award). TSI, LLC was
held to be jointly liable with the tenant for the amount of approximately $488, under a limited
guarantee of the tenants lease obligations. The landlord subsequently appealed the trial courts
award of damages, and on December 21, 2010, the appellate court reversed, in part, the trial
courts decision and ordered the case remanded to the trial court for an assessment of additional
damages, of approximately $750 plus interest and costs (the Additional Award). On February 7,
2011, the landlord moved for re-argument of the appellate courts decision, seeking additional
damages plus attorneys fees. On April 8, 2011, the appellate court denied the landlords motion.
The Additional Award has not yet been entered as a judgment. TSI, LLC does not believe it is
probable that TSI, LLC or any of its subsidiaries will be held liable to pay for any amount of the
Additional Award. Separately, TSI, LLC is party to an agreement with a third-party developer, which
by its terms provides indemnification for the full amount of any liability of any nature arising
out of the lease, including attorneys fees incurred to enforce the indemnity. In connection with
the Initial Award (and in furtherance of the indemnification agreement), TSI, LLC and the developer
have entered into an agreement pursuant to which the developer has agreed to pay the amount of the
Initial Award in installments over time. The indemnification agreement will cover the Additional
Award as and if entered by the court. If the third-party developer fails to honor its indemnity
obligation with respect to the Additional Award (or any amount awarded on further appeal), TSI
LLCs liability to the landlord may have a material adverse effect on TSI, LLCs and the Companys
consolidated results of operations or cash flows.
In addition to the litigation discussed above, we are involved in various other lawsuits,
claims and proceedings incidental to the ordinary course of business, including personal injury and
employee relations claims. The results of litigation are inherently unpredictable. Any claims
against us, whether meritorious or not, could be time consuming, result in costly litigation,
require significant amounts of management time and result in diversion of significant resources.
The results of these other lawsuits, claims and proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty.
11. Subsequent Event
On April 7, 2011, the Company commenced soliciting lenders to participate in a new $350,000
senior secured credit facility consisting of a term loan facility and a revolving credit facility
using commercially reasonable efforts. The Company expects the facility to be arranged by Deutsche
Bank Securities Inc. and KeyBanc Capital Markets Inc. The Company will use the proceeds from the
credit facility principally to repay the 2007 Senior Credit Facility and to redeem in full all of
the Companys outstanding Senior Discount Notes in accordance with their terms. The Company is
seeking to complete the transaction during the second quarter, subject to, among other factors,
receipt of satisfactory pricing and market conditions.
If a refinancing is consummated in the second quarter of the year ending December 31, 2011 the
Company would incur prepayment penalties on its existing Senior Discount Notes, existing deferred
financing costs totaling approximately $1,800 would have to be written off, and the Company would
likely incur 30 days of interest on its Senior Discount Notes during the redemption period.

Item 2. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition & Results of Operations
Introduction
In this Form 10-Q, unless otherwise stated or the context otherwise indicates, references to
TSI Holdings, Town Sports, TSI, the Company, we, our and similar references refer to
Town Sports International Holdings, Inc. and its subsidiaries, and references to TSI, LLC refer
to Town Sports International, LLC, our wholly-owned operating subsidiary.
Based on the number of clubs, we are one of the leading owners and operators of fitness clubs
in the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic regions of the United States and one of the largest fitness club
owners and operators in the United States. As of March 31, 2011, the Company, through its
subsidiaries, operated 159 fitness clubs. These clubs collectively served approximately 510,000
members, including 19,000 members under our new student membership as of March 31, 2011. We are the
largest fitness club owner and operator in Manhattan with 37 locations (more than twice as many as
our nearest competitor) and owned and operated a total of 107 clubs under the New York Sports
Clubs brand name within a 120-mile radius of New York City as of March 31, 2011. We owned and
operated 25 clubs in the Boston region under our Boston Sports Clubs brand name, 18 clubs (two of
which are partly-owned) in the Washington, D.C. region under our Washington Sports Clubs brand
name and six clubs in the Philadelphia region under our Philadelphia Sports Clubs brand name as
of March 31, 2011. In addition, we owned and operated three clubs in Switzerland as of March 31,
2011. We employ localized brand names for our clubs to create an image and atmosphere consistent
with the local community and to foster recognition as a local network of quality fitness clubs
rather than a national chain.
We develop clusters of clubs to serve densely populated major metropolitan regions and we
service such populations by clustering clubs near the highest concentrations of our target
customers areas of both employment and residence. Our clubs are located for maximum convenience to
our members in urban or suburban areas, close to transportation hubs or office or retail centers.
The majority of our members is between the ages of 21 and 60 and has an annual income of between
$50,000 and $150,000. We believe that this mid-value segment of the market is not only the
broadest but also the segment with the greatest growth opportunities. Our goal is to be the most
recognized health club network in each of the four major metropolitan regions that we serve. We
believe that our strategy of clustering clubs provides significant benefits to our members and
allows us to achieve strategic operating advantages. In each of our markets, we have developed
clusters by initially opening or acquiring clubs located in the more central urban markets of the
region and then branching out from these urban centers to suburbs and neighboring communities.
Revenue and operating expenses
We have two principal sources of revenue:
|
|
|
Membership revenue: Our largest sources of revenue are dues and initiation fees paid
by our members. These dues and fees comprised 78.9% of our total revenue for the three
months ended March 31, 2011. We recognize revenue from membership dues in the month when
the services are rendered. Approximately 96% of our members pay their monthly dues by
Electronic Funds Transfer, or EFT, while the balance is paid annually in advance. We
recognize revenue from joining fees over the expected average life of the membership. |
|
|
|
|
Ancillary club revenue: For the three months ended March 31, 2011, we generated 13.4%
of our revenue from personal training and 6.7% of our revenue from other ancillary
programs and services consisting of programming for children, group fitness training and
other member activities, as well as sales of miscellaneous sports products. |
In addition, we receive revenue (approximately 1.0% of our total revenue for the three months
ended March 31, 2011) from the rental of space in our facilities to operators who offer
wellness-related offerings, such as physical therapy and juice bars. In addition, we sell in-club
advertising and sponsorships and generate management fees from certain club facilities that we do
not wholly own. We refer to this revenue as Fees and Other revenue.
Our performance is dependent on our ability to continually attract and retain members at our
clubs. We experience attrition at our clubs and must attract new members to maintain our membership
and revenue levels. In the three months ended March
31, 2011, our monthly average attrition rate was 3.2% compared to 3.5% in the three months
ended March 31, 2010.
Our operating and selling expenses are comprised of both fixed and variable costs. Fixed costs
include club and supervisory and other salary and related expenses, occupancy costs, including most
elements of rent, utilities, housekeeping and
14
contracted maintenance expenses, as well as
depreciation. Variable costs are primarily related to payroll associated with ancillary club
revenue, membership sales compensation, advertising, certain facility maintenance, and club
supplies.
General and administrative expenses include costs relating to our centralized support
functions, such as accounting, insurance, information and communication systems, purchasing, member
relations, legal and consulting fees and real estate development expenses. Payroll and related
expenses are included in a separate line item on the condensed consolidated statement of operations
and are not included in general and administrative expenses.
As clubs mature and increase their membership base, fixed costs are typically spread over an
increasing revenue base and operating margins tend to improve. Conversely, when our membership
base declines, our operating margins are negatively impacted. As of March 31, 2011, all of our
clubs have been open over 24 months. Increases in our membership base have increased our operating
margins in 2011 compared to 2010.
As of March 31, 2011, 157 of the existing fitness clubs were wholly-owned by us and our
condensed consolidated financial statements include the operating results of all such clubs. Two
clubs in Washington, D.C. were partly-owned and operated by us, with our profit sharing percentages
approximating 20% (after priority distributions) and 45%, respectively, and are treated as
unconsolidated affiliates for which we apply the equity method of accounting. In addition, we
provide management services at four fitness clubs located in colleges and universities in which we
have no equity interest.
Student Membership
As part of our efforts to drive member sales, in April 2010 we began offering a new,
favorably-priced, restricted-use month-to-month membership available to students. In prior years,
we offered a three-month summer membership targeted at students generally priced at $199.00 for the
entire summer. The new membership is a month-to-month membership with dues of $20.00 per month and
$119.00 for initiation fees at the time of enrollment. As of March 31, 2011, we had approximately
19,000 student members.

Comparable Club Revenue
We define comparable club revenue as revenue at those clubs
that were operated by us for over 12 months and comparable
club revenue increases and decreases as revenue for the 13th
month and thereafter as applicable as compared to the same
period of the prior year.
Key determinants of the comparable club revenue decreases
shown in the table below are new memberships, member
retention rates, pricing and ancillary revenue.

the year ended December 31, 2010 and in the first quarter of 2011. We expect continued modest
improvements in comparable club revenue in each quarter in the year ending December 31, 2011.

Revenue decreased 0.9% in the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to the three months
ended March 31, 2010. This decrease in revenue was driven primarily by the 2.9% decrease in
membership revenue. The 2.4% decrease in membership dues is related to the price decline, driven by
the introduction of restricted memberships; including the new student membership, as well as the
effect of promotions.
Joining fees collected in the three months ended March 31, 2011 were $3.0 million compared to
$687,000 in the same period in 2010. However, since joining fees revenue is recognized over the
estimated average membership life, joining fee revenue decreased in the three months ended March
31, 2011 due to the decline in joining fees collected in 2009 relative to fees collected in prior
periods.
Personal training revenue increased 6.0% primarily due to increased member interest and
perceived improvements in consumer confidence levels. In addition, in the three months ended March
31, 2011 we recorded revenue of $136,000 for unused and expired sessions in three of our
jurisdictions.
Comparable club revenue decreased 0.5% for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared
to the three months ended March 31, 2010. Decreases in the pricing of club memberships accounted
for a 2.8% decrease, which was partially offset by increases of 1.1% due to increased membership
levels and 1.2% due to a collective increase in ancillary club revenue, joining fees and other
revenue.
Operating expenses (in thousands) were comprised of the following for the periods indicated:

Operating expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2011 were slightly impacted by a 0.6%
decrease in the total months of club operation from 477 to 474, the effects of which are included
in the additional descriptions of changes in operating expenses below.
Payroll and related. This change was primarily impacted by the following:
|
|
|
Payroll related to our membership consultants decreased $1.8 million. The
amount of membership consultant commissions deferred over the prior two years had been
declining with our decline in joining fees collected. We limit the amount of payroll costs
that we defer to the amount of joining fees collected. This resulted in a decrease in |
17
|
|
|
membership consultant commissions expensed in the three months ended March 31, 2011 relating
to deferrals established in prior periods. Also contributing to this decrease was an
increase in the amount of payroll costs deferred in the three months ended March 31, 2011
compared to the three months ended March 31, 2010 as joining fees collected increased. |
|
|
|
Payroll related to club staffing, excluding membership consultants, decreased $1.2
million from staffing efficiencies realized in the three months ended March 31, 2011
compared to the same period in 2010. |
|
|
|
|
Payroll related to severance decreased $472,000 related to employee
reductions in the three months ended March 31, 2010. |
As a percentage of total revenue, payroll and related expenses decreased to 38.8% in the three
months ended March 31, 2011 from 41.2% in the three months ended March 31, 2010.
Club operating. This change was primarily impacted by the following:
|
|
|
Occupancy expense increased $832,000 in the three months ended March 31,
2011 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2010. |
|
|
|
|
Repairs and maintenance expense increased $273,000 primarily due to snow removal costs
resulting from the increased number of major snow storms in the three months ended March
31, 2011 compared to the same period in the prior year. |
|
|
|
|
Partially offsetting these increases was a decrease in advertising expense of $750,000
due to efforts to spend more productively and adjusting the focus toward media advertising
beginning in the second half of 2010. |
As a percentage of total revenue, club operating expenses increased to 37.8% in the three
months ended March 31, 2011 from 36.9% in three months ended March 31, 2010.
General and administrative. The decrease in general and administrative expenses for the three
months ended March 31, 2011 when compared to the three months ended March 31, 2010 was attributable
to continued decreases in general liability insurance expense due to further reduction in claims
activity and therefore a reduction of claims reserves and decreases in legal and related fees for
various litigations. In addition, in the three months ended March 31, 2010, we incurred costs
related to a leadership conference, which was not held in 2011.
As a percentage of total revenue, general and administrative expenses decreased to 6.4% in the
three months ended March 31, 2011 from 7.6% in three months ended March 31, 2010.
Depreciation and amortization. In the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to the three
months ended March 31, 2010, depreciation and amortization decreased due to the closing of two
clubs subsequent to March 31, 2010. In addition, in the year ended December 31, 2010, we recorded
fixed asset impairment charges, decreasing the balance of fixed assets to be depreciated in the
three months ended March 31, 2011.
As a percentage of total revenue, depreciation and amortization expenses decreased to 11.1% in
the three months ended March 31, 2011 from 11.6% in three months ended March 31, 2010.
Impairment of fixed assets. In the three months ended March 31, 2010, we recorded fixed asset
impairment charges totaling $389,000, which represented the write-offs of fixed assets at two
underperforming clubs. There were no fixed asset impairment charges recorded in the three months
ended March 31, 2011.
Interest expense
In the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2010,
interest expense increased for accrued interest related to sales tax payments.
18
Provision (Benefit) for Corporate Income Taxes
The Company determined its income tax provision for the three months ended March 31, 2011 by
estimating its 2011 effective annual tax rate. This is a change from how the Company determined
its income tax provision (benefit) in each of the quarterly reporting periods in 2010. In each of
the quarterly reporting periods, the Company could not reliably estimate its 2010 effective annual
tax rate because small changes in annual estimated income before provision for corporate income
taxes (pre-tax results) could have had a significant impact on our annual estimated effective tax
rate. Accordingly, in 2010 the Company calculated its effective tax rate based on pre-tax results
through the three months ended March 31, 2010. The annual effective tax rate for the year ended
December 31, 2010 was (33)%.
We recorded a provision for corporate income taxes of $529,000 for the three months ended
March 31, 2011 compared to a benefit of $1.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2010. Our
effective tax rate was 26% in the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to (60)% in the three
months ended March 31, 2010. The expected benefits from the Companys captive insurance
arrangement changed the Companys effective tax rate on the Companys pre-tax income in the three
months ended March 31, 2011 from 43% to 26% and changed the Companys effective tax rate on the
pre-tax loss for the three months ended March 31, 2010 from (40)% to (60)%. The Company expects
the captive insurance company to be discontinued in 2012.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Historically, we have satisfied our liquidity needs through cash generated from operations and
various borrowing arrangements. Principal liquidity needs have included the acquisition and
development of new clubs, debt service requirements and other capital expenditures necessary to
upgrade, expand and renovate existing clubs. We believe that we can satisfy our current and
longer-term debt obligations and capital expenditure requirements primarily with cash flow from
operations and our borrowing arrangements for at least the next 12 months, although there can be no
assurance that such actions can or will be completed.
Operating Activities. Net cash provided by operating activities for the three months ended
March 31, 2011 increased 44.2%, or $7.8 million compared to the three months ended March 31, 2010.
This increase was partially related to the increase in overall earnings. In the three months ended
March 31, 2011, due to the timing of payments, prepaid rent decreased $5.0 million, while in the
three months ended March 31, 2010 there was no cash flow effect related to prepaid rent. The
effect of the change in deferred revenue and deferred membership costs increased cash $1.5 million
in the aggregate compared to the three months ended March 31, 2010 from the increase in joining
fees collected. In addition, income tax refunds, net of cash paid for income taxes, increased $1.4
million in the three months ended March 31, 2011, compared to the same period in 2010.
Investing Activities. Net cash used in investing activities increased $2.5 million in the
three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2010. Investing
activities in both three month periods consisted of expanding and remodeling existing clubs, and
the purchase of new fitness equipment. In the three months ended March 31, 2011, the Company also
began construction on two clubs, which we expect to open in the second half of the year. There
were no future clubs under construction in three months ended March 31, 2010. For the year ending
December 31, 2011, we estimate we will invest $29.0 million to $32.0 million in capital
expenditures, which represents an increase from $22.0 million of capital expenditures in 2010. This
amount includes approximately $7.5 million to $8.5 million related to the two planned club openings
in the second half of 2011, approximately $15.5 million to continue to upgrade existing clubs and
$4.3 million principally related to major renovations at clubs with recent lease renewals and
upgrading our in-club entertainment system network. We also expect to invest $2.0 million to $3.0
million to enhance our management information and communication systems. These expenditures will be
funded by cash flow provided by operations, available cash on hand and, to the extent needed,
borrowings from our revolving credit facility.
Financing Activities. Net cash used in financing activities increased $13.5 million for the
three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2010. In the three
months ended March 31, 2011, we made principal payments of $14.1 million on our outstanding Term
Loan Facility and in the three months ended March 31, 2010, we made principal payments of $462,500.
The principal payment made in the three months ended March 31, 2011 primarily consisted of the
required Excess Cash Flow payment of $13.6 million. See Note 3 Long-Term Debt to the condensed
consolidated financial statements in this Form 10-Q for further details of the Excess Cash Flow
payment.
As of March 31, 2011, our total consolidated debt was $302.5 million. This substantial amount
of debt could have significant consequences, including:
19
|
|
|
making it more difficult to satisfy our obligations; |
|
|
|
|
increasing our vulnerability to general adverse economic conditions; |
|
|
|
|
limiting our ability to obtain additional financing to fund future working capital,
capital expenditures, acquisitions of new clubs and other general corporate requirements; |
|
|
|
|
requiring cash flow from operations for the payment of interest on our credit facility
and our Senior Discount Notes and the payment of principal pursuant to excess cash flow
requirements and reducing our ability to use our cash flow to fund working capital, capital
expenditures, acquisitions of new clubs and general corporate requirements; and |
|
|
|
|
limiting our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in our business and the
industry in which we operate. |
These limitations and consequences may place us at a competitive disadvantage to other
less-leveraged competitors.
On February 27, 2007, TSI Holdings and TSI LLC entered into the 2007 Senior Credit Facility.
The 2007 Senior Credit Facility consists of the Term Loan Facility and the Revolving Loan Facility.
As of March 31, 2011, TSI LLC had $164.0 million outstanding under the Term Loan Facility.
Borrowings under the Term Loan Facility, at TSI LLCs option, bear interest at either the
administrative agents base rate plus 0.75% or its Eurodollar rate plus 1.75%, each as defined in
the 2007 Senior Credit Facility. As of March 31, 2011, TSI LLC had elected the Eurodollar rate
option, equal to 2.1%. Interest calculated under the base rate option would have equaled 4.0% as of
March 31, 2011, if TSI LLC had elected this option. TSI LLC is required to repay 0.25% of
principal, or $462,500, per quarter.
The 2007 Senior Credit Facility contains provisions that require Excess Cash Flow payments, as
defined, to be applied against outstanding Term Loan Facility balances. The Applicable Excess Cash
Flow Repayment Percentage is applied to the Excess Cash Flow when determining the Excess Cash Flow
payment. The Applicable Excess Cash Flow Repayment Percentage is 50% when the Senior Secured
Leverage Ratio, as defined, exceeds 2.00 to 1.00. Our earnings, changes in working capital and
capital expenditure levels all impact the determination of any excess cash flows. The calculation
was performed as of December 31, 2010 and a payment of $13.6 million was made on March 31, 2011.
Total principal payments of $21.0 million against our Term Loan Facility have been made as of March
31, 2011.
Borrowings under the Revolving Loan Facility currently, at TSI LLCs option, bear interest at
either the administrative agents base rate plus 1.25% or its Eurodollar rate plus 2.25%, each as
defined in the 2007 Senior Credit Facility. TSI LLCs applicable base rate and Eurodollar rate
margins, and commitment commission percentage, vary with our consolidated secured leverage ratio,
as defined in the 2007 Senior Credit Facility. TSI LLC is required to pay a commitment fee of 0.50%
per annum on the daily unutilized amount.
There were no outstanding borrowings on the Revolving Loan Facility as of March 31, 2011.
There were outstanding letters of credit issued at that date of $9.7 million. The unutilized
portion of the Revolving Loan Facility as of March 31, 2011 was $54.1 million.
Our Term Loan Facility matures on the earlier of February 27, 2014, or August 1, 2013 if the
Senior Discount Notes are still outstanding as of that date, and the Revolving Loan Facility will
mature in 2012. Our Senior Discount Notes will mature in 2014. On April 7, 2011, the Company
commenced soliciting lenders to participate in a new $350.0 million senior secured credit facility
consisting of a term loan facility and a revolving credit facility using commercially reasonable
efforts. The Company will use the proceeds from the credit facility principally to repay the 2007
Senior Credit Facility and to redeem in full all of the Companys outstanding Senior Discount Notes
in accordance with their terms. The Company is seeking to complete the transaction during the
second quarter, subject to, among other factors, receipt of satisfactory pricing and market
conditions. The availability of refinancing will depend on a variety of factors, such as economic
and market conditions, business performance, the availability of credit and our credit ratings, as
well as the lenders perception of the prospects of the Company or our industry in general. We may
not be able to successfully obtain any necessary refinancing on favorable terms, including interest
rates and financial and other covenants, or at all. In that event, our business and financial
condition may be materially adversely affected.
As of March 31, 2011, we were in compliance with the debt covenants in the 2007 Senior Credit
Facility and given our operating plans and expected performance for 2011, we expect we will
continue to be in compliance during the remainder of 2011. The Revolving Loan Facility contains a
maximum total leverage covenant ratio of 4.25:1.00, which covenant is subject to compliance, on a
consolidated basis, only during the period in which borrowings and letters of credit are
outstanding
20
thereunder. As of March 31, 2011, the Companys leverage ratio was 2.32:1.00. These covenants
may limit TSI LLCs ability to incur additional debt. As of March 31, 2011, permitted aggregate
borrowing capacity of $63.8 million under the Revolving Loan Facility was not restricted by the
covenants.
On February 1, 2009, our Senior Discount Notes became fully accreted with an outstanding
balance of $138.5 million. Interest payments of $7.6 million commenced on August 1, 2009 and will
be made semi-annually on February 1 and August 1. As of March 31, 2011, we had an aggregate
principal amount of $138.5 million of Senior Discount Notes outstanding.
The terms of the indenture governing our Senior Discount Notes and the 2007 Senior Credit
Facility significantly restrict, or prohibit, the payment of dividends by us. Our subsidiaries are
permitted under the 2007 Senior Credit Facility and the indenture governing our Senior Discount
Notes to incur additional indebtedness that may severely restrict or prohibit the payment of
dividends by such subsidiaries to us. Our substantial leverage may impair our financial condition
and we may incur significant additional debt. For further information regarding our Senior Discount
Notes and our 2007 Senior Credit Facility, see Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations Liquidity and Capital Resources in our Annual Report on
Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010.
As of March 31, 2011, we had $45.2 million of cash and cash equivalents. Financial instruments
that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of cash and cash
equivalents. Although we deposit our cash with more than one financial institution, as of March 31,
2011 approximately $32.4 million was held at one financial institution. We have not experienced any
losses on cash and cash equivalent accounts to date and we do not believe that, based on the credit
ratings of the aforementioned institutions, we are exposed to any significant credit risk related
to cash at this time.
The aggregate long-term debt and operating lease obligations as of March 31, 2011 were as

Notes:

|
(1) |
|
Includes 11% annual interest on the Senior Discount Notes and variable interest on the
2007 Term Loan Facility using the rate of as of March 31, 2011
of 2.11%. |
|
(2) |
|
Operating lease obligations include base rent only. Certain leases provide for
additional rent based on real estate taxes, common area maintenance and defined amounts
based on the operating results of the lessee. |
The following long-term liabilities included on the condensed consolidated balance sheet are
excluded from the table above: income taxes (including uncertain tax positions or benefits),
insurance accruals and other accruals. We are unable to estimate the timing of payments for these
items.
In recent years, we have typically operated with a working capital deficit. We had a working
capital deficit of $15.4 million at March 31, 2011, as compared with $22.9 million at December 31,
2010. Major components of our working capital deficit on the current liability side are deferred
revenues, accrued expenses (including, among others, accrued construction in progress and
equipment, payroll and occupancy costs) and the current portion of long-term debt. These current
liabilities more than offset the main current assets, which consist of cash and cash equivalents,
accounts receivable, and prepaid expenses and other current assets. Payments underlying the
current liability for deferred revenue are generally not held as cash and cash equivalents, but
rather are used for the Companys business needs, including financing and investing commitments,
which contributes to the working capital deficit. The deferred revenue liability relates to dues
and services paid-in-full in advance and joining fees paid at the time of enrollment and totaled
$40.3 million and $35.1 million at March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively. Joining
fees received are deferred and amortized over the estimated average membership life of a club
member. Since July 1, 2010, this estimated average membership life has been 27 months. Prepaid
dues are generally realized over a period of up to twelve months, while fees for prepaid services
normally are realized over a period of one to nine months. In periods when we increase the number
of clubs open and consequently increase the level of payments received in advance, we
21
anticipate that we will continue to have deferred revenue balances at levels similar to or
greater than those currently maintained. By contrast, any decrease in demand for our services or
reductions in joining fees collected would have the effect of reducing deferred revenue balances,
which would likely require us to rely more heavily on other sources of funding. The decrease in
number of clubs and joining fees and the increase of our cash balance has decreased the working
capital deficit. In either case, a significant portion of the deferred revenue is not expected to
constitute a liability that must be funded with cash. At the time a member joins our club, we
incur enrollment costs, a portion of which are deferred over 27 months. These costs are recorded
as a long-term asset and as such; do not offset the working capital deficit. We expect to record a
working capital deficit in future periods and, as in the past, will fund such deficit using cash
flows from operations and borrowings under our 2007 Senior Credit Facility or other credit
facilities, which resources we believe will be sufficient to cover such deficit.
Recent Changes in or Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
See Note 2 Recent Accounting Changes to the condensed consolidated financial statements in
this Form 10-Q.
Forward-Looking Statements
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of
Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,
including, without limitation, statements regarding future financial results and performance,
potential sales revenue, legal contingencies and tax benefits, and the existence of adverse
litigation and other risks, uncertainties and factors set forth under Item 1A., entitled Risk
Factors, in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010
and in our other reports and documents filed with the SEC. These statements are subject to various
risks and uncertainties, many of which are outside our control, including, among others, the level
of market demand for our services, economic conditions affecting the Companys business, the
geographic concentration of the Companys clubs, competitive pressure, the ability to achieve
reductions in operating costs and to continue to integrate acquisitions, environmental matters, any
security and privacy breaches involving customer data, the levels and terms of the Companys
indebtedness, and other specific factors discussed herein and in other SEC filings by us (including
our reports on Forms 10-K and 10-Q filed with the SEC). We believe that all forward-looking
statements are based on reasonable assumptions when made; however, we caution that it is impossible
to predict actual results or outcomes or the effects of risks, uncertainties or other factors on
anticipated results or outcomes and that, accordingly, one should not place undue reliance on these
statements. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date when made and we undertake no
obligation to update these statements in light of subsequent events or developments. Actual
results may differ materially from anticipated results or outcomes discussed in any forward-looking
statement.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Our debt consists of both fixed and variable rate debt facilities. As of March 31, 2011, a
total of $164.0 million of our debt consisted of the Term Loan Facility for which borrowings are
subject to variable interest rates. Borrowings under this Term Loan Facility are for periods of
one, two, three or six months in the case of Eurodollar borrowings and no minimum period in the
case of base rate borrowings, and upon each continuation of an interest period related to a
Eurodollar borrowing the interest rate is reset and each interest rate would be considered
variable. If short-term interest rates had increased by 100 basis points for the three months ended
March 31, 2011, our interest expense would have increased by approximately $445,000. This amount is
determined by considering the impact of the hypothetical interest rates on our debt balance during
this period.
For additional information concerning the terms of our fixed-rate debt, see Note 8 Long
Term Debt to the consolidated financial statements included in the Companys Annual Report on Form
10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010 filed with the SEC.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures: We maintain disclosure controls and
procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) that
are designed to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by us in
the reports filed or submitted by us under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and
reported within the time periods specified in the SECs rules and forms and such information is
accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief
Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Our
disclosure controls and procedures were designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their
objectives however, any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can
provide only reasonable assurances of achieving the desired controls.
As of March 31, 2011, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the
participation of our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial
Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and
procedures. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer
have concluded that, as of March 31, 2011, our disclosure controls and procedures were determined
to be effective at that reasonable assurance level.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting: There were no changes in our internal
control over financial reporting (as that term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under
the Exchange Act) that occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2011 that has materially
affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Companys internal control over
financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. Legal Proceedings.
On or about March 1, 2005, in an action styled Sarah Cruz, et al v. Town Sports International,
d/b/a New York Sports Club, plaintiffs commenced a purported class action against TSI, LLC in the
Supreme Court, New York County, seeking unpaid wages and alleging that TSI, LLC violated various
overtime provisions of the New York State Labor Law with respect to the payment of wages to certain
trainers and assistant fitness managers. On or about June 18, 2007, the same plaintiffs commenced a
second purported class action against TSI, LLC in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, New
York County, seeking unpaid wages and alleging that TSI, LLC violated various wage payment and
overtime provisions of the New York State Labor Law with respect to the payment of wages to all New
York purported hourly employees. On September 17, 2010, TSI, LLC made motions to dismiss the class
action allegations of both lawsuits for plaintiffs failure to timely file motions to certify the
class actions. Oral argument on the motions occurred on November 10, 2010. A decision is still
pending. While we are unable at this time to estimate the likelihood of an unfavorable outcome or
the potential loss to TSI, LLC in the event of such an outcome, we intend to contest these cases
vigorously. Depending upon the ultimate outcome, these matters may have a material adverse effect
on TSI, LLCs and the Companys consolidated results of operations, or cash flows.
On September 22, 2009, in an action styled Town Sports International, LLC v. Ajilon Solutions, a division of Ajilon Professional Staffing LLC (Supreme Court of the State of New York, New York
County, 602911-09), TSI, LLC brought an action in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, New
York County, against Ajilon for breach of contract, conversion and replevin, seeking, among other
things, money damages against Ajilon for breaching its agreement to design and deliver to TSI, LLC
a new sports club enterprise management system known as GIMS, including failing to provide copies
of the computer source code written for GIMS, related documentation, properly identified
requirements documents and other property owned and licensed by TSI, LLC. Subsequently, on October
14, 2009, Ajilon brought a counterclaim against TSI, LLC alleging breach of contract, alleging,
among other things, failure to pay outstanding invoices in the amount of $2,900. On March 3, 2011,
Ajilon amended its counterclaims to include claims for breach of contract and unjust enrichment.
On March 7, 2011, TSI amended its complaint against Ajilon to add new allegations and claims for
fraudulent inducement, negligent misrepresentation, fraud, and breach of the implied covenant of
good faith and fair dealing (the additional claims). On March 28, 2011, Ajilon moved to dismiss
the additional claims; TSI is preparing its opposition and the motion is still pending. Other than
the pending dismissal motion, the litigation is currently in the discovery phase. We believe at
this time the likelihood of an unfavorable outcome is not probable. TSI, LLC intends to prosecute
vigorously its claims against Ajilon and defend against Ajilons counterclaims.
On February 7, 2007, in an action styled White Plains Plaza Realty, LLC v. TSI, LLC et al.,
the landlord of one of TSI, LLCs former health and fitness clubs filed a lawsuit in state court
against it and two of its health club subsidiaries alleging, among other things, breach of lease in
connection with the decision to close the club located in a building owned by the plaintiff and
leased to a subsidiary of TSI, LLC, and take additional space in the nearby facility leased by
another subsidiary of TSI, LLC. The trial court granted the landlord damages against its tenant in
the amount of approximately $700, including interest and costs (Initial Award). TSI, LLC was
held to be jointly liable with the tenant for the amount of approximately $488, under a limited
guarantee of the tenants lease obligations. The landlord subsequently appealed the trial courts
award of damages, and on December 21, 2010, the appellate court reversed, in part, the trial
courts decision and ordered the case remanded to the trial court for an assessment of additional
damages, of approximately $750 plus interest and costs (the Additional Award). On February 7,
2011, the landlord moved for re-argument of the appellate courts decision, seeking additional
damages plus attorneys fees. On April 8, 2011, the appellate court denied the landlords motion.
The Additional Award has not yet been entered as a judgmentTSI, LLC does not believe it is probable
that TSI, LLC or any of its subsidiaries will be held liable to pay for any amount of the
Additional Award. Separately, TSI, LLC is party to an agreement with a third-party developer, which
by its terms provides indemnification for the full amount of any liability of any nature arising
out of the lease described above, including attorneys fees incurred to enforce the indemnity. In
connection with the Initial Award (and in furtherance of the indemnification agreement), TSI, LLC
and the developer have entered into an agreement pursuant to which the developer has agreed to pay
the amount of the Initial Award in installments over time. The indemnification agreement will cover
the Additional Award as and if entered by the court. If the third-party developer fails to honor
its indemnity obligation with respect to the Additional Award (or any amount awarded on further
appeal), TSI LLCs liability to the landlord may have a material adverse effect on TSI, LLCs and
