BASIC-FIT ANNOUNCES CHANGE IN MANAGEMENT BOARD

HANS VAN DER AAR TO RETIRE AS CFO AND MEMBER OF THE MANAGEMENT BOARD; PROPOSED APPOINTMENT OF MAURICE DE KLEER AS HIS SUCCESSOR

Hoofddorp, 2 September 2024 – After having held the position of CFO of Basic-Fit, (Euronext: BFIT) Europe's largest and fastest growing fitness operator, for 13 years, Hans van der Aar has announced to retire on 31 December 2024. The Supervisory Board of Basic-Fit nominates Maurice de Kleer for the appointment as Chief Financial Officer (CFO) and member of the Management Board effective 1 January 2025.

Rene Moos, CEO: "Hans has had a pivotal role in the success of Basic-Fit. He has been a leading force in several of the key moments in the development of Basic-Fit: the transformation of the mid-market chain HealthCity to the successful value-for-money model of Basic-Fit, a successful listing on Euronext Amsterdam and managing the company through two difficult COVID-19 years, just to name a few. I am grateful for all his contributions to the company and for being a great person to work with so intensely for so many years."

The Supervisory Board proposes to the Extraordinary General Meeting of Shareholders (EGM) to appoint Maurice de Kleer as Member of the Management Board as per 1 January 2025. Following the appointment by the EGM, he will hold the role of Chief Financial Officer.

Hans van der Aar, CFO: "It has been a privilege to be part of Basic-Fit's very successful growth journey. I am proud to see what we have achieved as a company. I also know that this is only just the beginning. I will be turning 66 shortly, and with Basic-Fit now being in a robust financial position and ready for a new chapter, I have decided that now is a good time to hand over my responsibilities into the capable hands of Maurice de Kleer as from 1 January 2025. The first couple of months of 2025, I will remain at Basic-Fit in an advisory role to assure a smooth transition."

Maurice de Kleer (53, Dutch), is currently a Member of the Management Board of BDO NL. BDO NL delivers as a part of the global BDO network a wide variety of assurance, accounting, tax and advisory services to its clients. Maurice joined BDO as an equity partner in 2008 and has been active in various leadership roles inside and outside the organisation.

Maurice de Kleer: "I am excited to join the talented team of Basic-Fit and contribute to the company's continued success. Basic-Fit has a proven track record of growth and expansion, a dedicated management team with extensive entrepreneurial skills and a strong company culture. I am looking forward to be part of that team, working with Rene and other team members, and adding my experience".

Jan van Nieuwenhuizen, Chairman of the Supervisory Board: The Supervisory Board expresses its gratitude for the outstanding dedication and significant contribution that Hans van der Aar has shown over the past 13 years. During his tenure he built and professionalized the financial organisation, making it possible for the company to become Europe's largest and fastest growing listed fitness chain in a controlled manner. He will now make place for his successor whilst Basic-Fit is in a robust financial position and ready for a new chapter. Maurice de Kleer fits well in the culture of Basic-Fit and is the right person for the next phase in the development of the company. With his extensive experience and skill set in finance, transformation and business leadership, Maurice will be extremely valuable in further delivering profitable growth, operate with efficiency at scale and create value for our members, employees and shareholders."

The proposal for the appointment of Maurice de Kleer will be submitted to the EGM, to be held on 15 October 2024. The invite and agenda for the EGM is set to be circulated later today.
