Item 1.01 | Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement |
Underwriting Agreement
On December 10, 2014, Bright Horizons Family Solutions Inc. (the “Company”) entered into an Underwriting Agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with Barclays Capital Inc. (the “Underwriter”) and the selling stockholders listed on Schedule I thereto (the “Selling Stockholders”), relating to the underwritten offering of 8,000,000 shares (the “Shares”) of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Offering”). All of the Shares are being sold by the Selling Stockholders. The Underwriter has agreed to purchase the Shares from the Selling Stockholders pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement at a price of $44.81 per share. In addition, pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, the Company has agreed to purchase from the Underwriter 4,500,000 shares of Common Stock being sold by the Selling Stockholders to the Underwriter, at a price per share equal to the price being paid by the Underwriter to the Selling Stockholders, resulting in an aggregate purchase price of $201,645,000 (the “Share Repurchase”). The Company intends to fund the share repurchase with cash on hand and with borrowings under the Company's incremental term loan facility.
The Offering is being made only by means of a prospectus. An automatic shelf registration statement (including a prospectus) relating to the offering of common stock was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 25, 2014, and became effective upon filing (Registration No. 333-194790) (the “Registration Statement”). A prospectus supplement relating to the Offering was filed with the SEC on December 12, 2014. The closing of the Offering and the Share Repurchase is expected to take place on December 16, 2014, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions. A copy of the Underwriting Agreement is filed as Exhibit 1.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
