    Item 8.01

    Other Events

    On December 11, 2024, Bright Horizons Family Solutions LLC (the “Borrower”) and Bright Horizons Capital Corp. (“Holdings”), both wholly-owned subsidiaries of Bright Horizons Family Solutions Inc., together with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (“JPM”), as administrative agent, each of the Loan Parties (as defined therein) party thereto, and the Lenders (as defined therein) party thereto, amended the Borrower’s existing senior secured credit facilities by entering into a Second Amendment to Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Second Amendment”), which amended that certain Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of November 23, 2021, among the Borrower, Holdings, JPM, as administrative agent and L/C issuer, the Lenders and the other parties party thereto from time to time (as amended and restated by the First Amendment, dated as of December 21, 2022, the “Existing Credit Agreement” and as further amended by the Second Amendment, the “Credit Agreement”).

    Pursuant to the Second Amendment, among other things, the Borrower established a new term “B” loan facility in an aggregate principal amount of $583,500,000 (the “2024 Term B Loan Facility” and the loans thereunder, the “2024 Term B Loans”), which refinanced the existing class of term “B” loans (the “Existing Term B Loans”). The proceeds of the 2024 Term B Loans were used to refinance in full all of the outstanding principal amount of the Existing Term B Loans.

    Pursuant to the Second Amendment, the Borrower reduced the applicable rate per annum for the 2024 Term B Loan Facility as compared to the Existing Term B Loans by 25 basis points to 2.00% for Term Benchmark Loans (as defined in the Credit Agreement) and 1.00% for ABR Loans (as defined in the Credit Agreement). The applicable rates are subject to a further automatic 25 basis points reduction upon receiving a corporate credit rating of at least Ba3 (stable) and at least BB- (stable) from Moody’s and S&P, respectively. The 2024 Term B Loans, unlike the Existing Term B Loans, are not subject to the Term SOFR Adjustment (as defined in the Credit Agreement). The 2024 Term B Loan Facility continues to have a maturity date of November 23, 2028, the term loan A facility continues to have a maturity date of November 23, 2026 and the revolving credit facility continues to have a maturity date of May 26, 2026. The obligations under the Credit Agreement are secured by the same collateral and guaranteed by the same guarantors as under the Existing Credit Agreement.

    The foregoing description does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Second Amendment, which is filed as Exhibit 99.1 to this current report on Form 8-K and is incorporated by reference into this Item 8.01.
