Introduction
1. Defendants own and operate the following athletic clubs in and around Chicago,
FILED DATE: 7/30/2018 4:43 PM 2018CH09598
Illinois: Evanston Athletic Club, Lincoln Park Athletic Club, West Loop Athletic Club,
Lakeview Athletic Club, Lincoln Square Athletic Club, Wicker Park Athletic Club, Bucktown
Athletic Club, and Webster Place Athletic Club (collectively, “gyms” or the “Chicago Athletic
Clubs”). Plaintiff and thousands of other individuals are members of Defendants’ gyms. For the
last 2½ years, all of Defendants’ gyms provided to their members a rewards program (the “CAC
Rewards Program”) as a term of membership, in which gym members earn points (“CAC
Rewards Points”) for various activities, such as going to the gym, completing gym challenges,
referring friends, and purchasing personal training sessions. Defendants’ gym members (“CAC
Members”) are entitled to redeem the CAC Rewards Points for goods and services, such as
Chicago Athletic Club merchandise, personal training sessions, guest passes for friends, and
that they had unilaterally terminated the CAC Rewards Program effective immediately. Further,
Defendants refused to allow CAC Members to redeem unused CAC Rewards Points, and
Defendants did not compensate gym members for the unused CAC Rewards Points they had
accrued.
3. Because Defendants terminated the CAC Rewards Program without prior notice
to Plaintiff and Class members, Plaintiff and Class members cannot redeem the CAC Rewards
Points that they earned and those points are now worthless.
4. Plaintiff brings this action against Defendants for breach of contract, breach of
contract via breach of the covenant of good faith and fair dealing, promissory estoppel, and for
2
violation of the Illinois Consumer Fraud and Deceptive Practices Act (“ICFA”), 815 ILCS 505/1,

18. Individuals who wish to use any one of Defendants’ gym facilities must become a
19. On information and belief, CAC Members pay Defendants on either a monthly or
20. Beginning approximately December 2015, Defendants offered the CAC Rewards
Program as a term and benefit of CAC Members’ gym memberships. Under the CAC Rewards
Program, CAC Members earn “points” for various activities, including checking in at a gym,
referring a friend to one of Defendants’ gyms, joining various challenges, sharing workouts on
social media, and purchasing personal training sessions from Defendants. See CAC Rewards,
5
21. Under the terms of the CAC Rewards Program, CAC Members are entitled to
redeem their CAC Rewards Points for goods and services, as follows:
FILED DATE: 7/30/2018 4:43 PM 2018CH09598
22. In consideration for the membership dues that CAC Members pay under the
Membership Agreements, they are entitled to certain membership benefits and uses of
Defendants’ facilities. For example, CAC Members can use treadmills, elliptical machines, and
the weight room, attend exercise classes, use the showers and locker rooms, and earn and redeem
23. While earning points for certain “lesser-valued” goods and services could easily
be attained—such as earning 100 CAC Rewards Points to obtain a water bottle—other goods and
services require CAC Members to earn thousands of points in order to obtain them. For
example, 1,500 points can be redeemed for a 1-hour massage, 2,000 points can be redeemed for a
free month of membership dues, and 25,000 points can be redeemed for a $500 Visa Giftcard.
See Exhibit B. In order to acquire enough points to obtain a massage, free month of membership
dues, Visa Giftcard, and other goods and services, CAC Members have to remain a CAC
24. In order to redeem the CAC Rewards Points for goods and services, the individual
must be an active, dues paying CAC Member. CAC Rewards Points do not expire. As such,
6
CAC Members can continue to accrue CAC Rewards Points and redeem those points at any time,
so long as the individual is an active CAC Member. As such, CAC Members have an ownership
FILED DATE: 7/30/2018 4:43 PM 2018CH09598
interest in the CAC Rewards Points that they earned as a CAC Member, and those points cannot
25. Defendants created the CAC Rewards Program to attract new CAC Members,
retain current CAC Members, receive free advertising by having CAC Members post on social
media about Defendants’ gyms, and encourage current CAC Members to spend money on
Defendants’ products and services, such as personal training sessions. Thus, Defendants obtain
monetary and marketing benefits from CAC Members’ participation in the CAC Rewards
Program.
26. Defendants encouraged CAC Members to join the CAC Rewards Program by
emailing CAC Members about the program, posting signs at Defendants’ gyms regarding the
program, and having their employees encourage CAC Members to enroll in the program.
27. Because the initial period of the Membership Agreement is 12 months, which
then converts to a month-to-month contract on the same terms, in order to earn and redeem
additional CAC Rewards Points CAC Members must continue to pay membership dues to
remain an active member of Defendants’ gyms and the CAC Rewards Program.
28. On July 16, 2018, at approximately 12:11 a.m., Defendants sent an email to all
CAC Members abruptly and unilaterally terminating the CAC Rewards Program, effective
immediately, and stating that CAC Members would not be able to redeem the accrued unused
CAC Rewards Points that they had earned. (See CAC Rewards & Summer Perks email, dated
July 16, 2018, attached hereto as Exhibit C). Prior to sending the email to CAC Members
announcing the termination of the CAC Rewards Program, Defendants did not provide any prior
7
notice to CAC Members that Defendants would be terminating the CAC Rewards Program or
that Defendants would no longer allow CAC Members to redeem the accrued unused CAC
FILED DATE: 7/30/2018 4:43 PM 2018CH09598
Rewards Points that they had already earned and paid for as part of their membership dues.
29. Prior to terminating the CAC Rewards Program, Defendants did not provide CAC
Members with any advance notice so as to allow them an opportunity to redeem the accrued
unused CAC Rewards Points that they had earned. Further, Defendants did not provide CAC
Members with cash, credit, or any other form of compensation for the accrued unused CAC
Rewards Points that Defendants unilaterally took from the CAC Members.
30. On information and belief, hundreds of consumers in Illinois who were CAC
Members had accrued unused CAC Rewards Points as of July 16, 2018, but they are not able to
use the points that they had earned because Defendants terminated the CAC Rewards Program
without warning.
31. After Defendants abruptly terminated the CAC Rewards Program, numerous CAC
Members voiced their disappointment with Defendants’ decision to terminate the CAC Rewards
Program because they had earned thousands of points that were suddenly worthless. For
example, one CAC Member stated, “I accumulated over 2,000 points and was given no
opportunity to redeem them before you all cancelled the program. You require 30 days notice to
cancel membership yet you could not extend the same courtesy to your customers when
cancelling the rewards program.” (See Chicago Athletic Club Faces Social Media Backlash

Facts Related to Plaintiff
Plaintiff’s Membership Agreement, attached hereto as Exhibit D). Upon information and belief,
the Membership Agreement that Plaintiff executed (Exhibit D) was Defendants’ standard
agreement that contained the same or substantially the same terms as the agreements entered into
33. Prior to Plaintiff became a CAC Member, he was informed of the CAC Rewards
Program through Defendants advertising, in gym signage, and from Defendants’ employees.
Plaintiff decided to become a CAC Member, in part, because he could earn CAC Rewards
Points, which he could then redeem for goods and services, such as guest passes for non-member
friends, free massages, a free month of membership dues, etc. See Exhibits A and B.
34. When Plaintiff became a CAC Member in February 2016, he also enrolled in the

membership continued on a month-to-month basis under the same contractual terms. See Exhibit
to earn additional CAC Rewards Points and redeem those points for goods and services pursuant
36. For example, Plaintiff occasionally used CAC Rewards Points for guest passes for
non-member friends. However, at the time Defendants abruptly cancelled the CAC Rewards
Program, Plaintiff had been accruing CAC Rewards Points with the intent and expectation that
he would redeem them for other “higher priced” goods and services that require more points,
such as personal training sessions, massages, or a free month of membership dues. Plaintiff

believes that on July 16, 2018, he had accrued approximately 1,200 unused CAC Rewards
Points. Plaintiff is unable to use the CAC Rewards Points that he accrued, and he was not given

Class Allegations
37. Class Definition: Plaintiff bring this action pursuant to 735 ILCS 5/2-801, on
behalf of a class of similarly situated individuals and entities (“the Class”), defined as follows:
All persons who were active members of one of Defendants’ gyms on July 16,
2018, and who had accrued unused CAC Rewards Points.
Excluded from the Class are: (1) Defendants and Defendants’ agents; (2) the Judge to
whom this case is assigned and the Judge’s immediate family; (3) any person who executes and
files a timely request for exclusion from the Class; (4) any persons who have had their claims in
this matter finally adjudicated and/or otherwise released; and (5) the legal representatives,
successors and assigns of any such excluded person.
38. Numerosity: Upon information and belief, the Class is comprised of hundreds of
individuals, and is so numerous that joinder of all members of the Class is impracticable. While
the exact number of Class members is presently unknown and can only be ascertained through
discovery, Plaintiff believes there are hundreds of Class members based upon the fact that
Defendants operate eight (8) gyms in and around Chicago, Illinois, and each gym has hundreds,
if not thousands, of members. Class members can be easily identified through Defendants’
39. Commonality and Predominance: There are several questions of law and fact
common to the claims of Plaintiff and members of the Class, which predominate over any
40. Typicality: Plaintiff’s claims are typical of the claims of the proposed Class. All
claims are based on the same legal and factual issues. Plaintiff and each of the Class members
were members of Defendants’ gyms, enrolled in the CAC Rewards Program, and had accrued
unused CAC Rewards Points at the time Defendants unilaterally and abruptly terminated the
CAC Rewards Program. Defendants engaged in the uniform conduct of terminating the CAC
Rewards Program without any warning to Plaintiff or any Class members, and refusing to allow
Plaintiff and Class members to redeem accrued unused CAC Rewards Points.
41. Adequacy of Representation: Plaintiff will fairly and adequately represent and
protect the interests of the Class, and has retained counsel competent and experienced in
complex class actions. Plaintiff has no interest antagonistic to those of the Class, and Defendants
have no defenses unique to Plaintiff. The questions of law and fact common to the proposed
Class members predominate over any questions affecting only individual Class members.
42. Superiority: A class action is superior to other available methods for the fair and
efficient adjudication of this controversy. The expense and burden of individual litigation would
make it impracticable or impossible for proposed Class members to prosecute their claims
individually. The trial and the litigation of Plaintiff’s claims are manageable.

44. Plaintiff and Class members entered into uniform contracts with Defendants. The
terms of the Membership Agreement (Exhibit D) and CAC Rewards Program (Exhibits A and B)
FILED DATE: 7/30/2018 4:43 PM 2018CH09598
were incorporated into and formed the overall contract that was entered into between Defendants
and Plaintiff and Class members (the “Contract”). The Contract requires CAC Members to pay
money to use Defendants’ gym facilities, and in exchange CAC Members are, inter alia, entitled
to earn CAC Rewards Points and redeem the points for certain enumerated goods and services.
45. As set forth above, under the terms of the Contract, Defendants offered to CAC
Members certain benefits and uses of Defendants’ facilities, including: CAC Members can use
treadmills, elliptical machines, and the weight room, attend various exercise classes, use the
showers and locker rooms, and earn, accrue and redeem CAC Rewards Points that never expire.
46. By advertising and promoting the CAC Rewards Program as a term and benefit of
being a member of Defendants’ gyms, and requiring that CAC Members be active CAC
Members to redeem CAC Rewards Points, the CAC Rewards Program is incorporated into the
47. Plaintiff and Class members accepted Defendants’ offer, entered into a uniform
Contract with Defendants, paid their membership dues, enrolled in the CAC Rewards Program,
and performed the required acts in order to earn CAC Rewards Points.

abruptly terminating the CAC Rewards Program without prior notice to Plaintiff and Class
members, and refusing to allow Plaintiff and Class members to redeem their accrued unused

Breach of Contract via
Breach of the Implied Covenant of Good Faith and Fair Dealing
50. Plaintiff repeats and realleges Paragraphs 1-48 with the same force and effect as
51. Under common law, every contract includes an implied covenant of good faith
and fair dealing. The covenant of good faith and fair dealing requires parties to comply with the
spirit of a contract, and prohibits parties from exercising discretion unreasonably, arbitrarily,
capriciously, without proper motive, and in a manner inconsistent with the parties’ reasonable
expectations.
52. As set forth above, Plaintiff and Class members entered into valid and enforceable
Contracts with Defendants to be members of Defendants’ gyms. The implied covenant of good
13
faith and fair dealing requires Defendants to act reasonably when exercising their contractual
53. Defendants breached the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing—thereby
breaching the Contracts with Plaintiffs and Class members—by unilaterally, and without prior
notice, terminating the CAC Rewards Program on July 16, 2018, and refusing to permit Plaintiff
and Class members to redeem accrued unused CAC Rewards Points prior to the termination of
the CAC Rewards Program. Such actions were inconsistent with the reasonable expectations of
the parties, and deprived Plaintiff and Class members of their reasonably anticipated benefits of
gym membership.

D. Awarding Plaintiff and the Class damages equal to the amount of actual

Rewards Points. Further, Plaintiff and Class members reasonably relied on Defendants’
representations by refraining from redeeming accrued unused CAC Rewards Points in order to
accrue enough points to obtain “higher priced” goods and services as outlined in Exhibit B.
58. Plaintiff’s and Class members’ reliance on Defendants’ representations, and their
refraining from redeeming accrued unused CAC Rewards Points, was reasonable and foreseeable
by Defendants, as Defendants constructed the CAC Rewards Program to enable CAC Members
to earn CAC Rewards Points that never expire, and to accrue unused points and redeem those
points for certain goods and services—such as personal training sessions, massages, free months

Violation of the Illinois Consumer Fraud and Deceptive Business Practices Act
815 ILCS 505/1, et seq.
61. Plaintiff repeats and realleges Paragraphs 1-42 with the same force and effect as

because they entered into Contracts with Defendants for membership in Defendants’ gyms for
personal use.

when Defendants (a) intentionally induced Plaintiff and Class members into becoming and
remaining CAC Members by advertising, offering and promising Plaintiff and Class members
that they would receive CAC Rewards Points as a term and benefit of their CAC Memberships,
(b) abruptly terminated the CAC Rewards Program without notice to Plaintiff and Class
members, and (c) refused to allow Plaintiff and Class members to redeem their accrued unused
