INTRODUCTION
This
Amendment No. 2 to Rule 13E-3 Transaction Statement on Schedule 13E-3, together with the exhibits hereto
(the Transaction Statement), is being filed by (1) Bright Horizons Family Solutions, Inc., a
Delaware corporation (Bright Horizons or the Company), the issuer of the Bright Horizons Common
Stock that is subject to the Rule 13e-3 transaction, (2) Swingset Holdings Corp., a Delaware
corporation (Parent), (3) Swingset Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation and a direct
wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent (Merger Sub), (4) Bain Capital Fund X, L.P., a Cayman Islands
limited partnership (Bain) and (5) Joshua Bekenstein, an individual (Bekenstein). Bright
Horizons, Parent, Merger Sub, Bain and Bekenstein are collectively referred to herein as the
Filing Persons.
Pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger (the Merger Agreement), dated as of January 14,
2008, by and among the Company, Parent and Merger Sub, Merger Sub will merge with and into the
Company, the separate corporate existence of Merger Sub will cease and the Company will continue as
the surviving corporation (the Merger). Upon completion of the Merger, each share of Bright
Horizons Common Stock issued and outstanding as of the effective time of the Merger (other than
shares held in the treasury of the Company, owned by Merger Sub, Parent or any wholly owned
subsidiary of Parent or the Company or held by stockholders who are entitled to and who properly
exercise appraisal rights under Delaware law) will be converted into the right to receive $48.25 in
cash. The Merger Agreement also provides that, upon consummation of the Merger, except as otherwise
agreed by a holder and Parent, all outstanding options to acquire Bright Horizons Common Stock will
become fully vested and immediately exercisable. All such options (other than certain options held
by certain executive officers and directors of the Company who may become parties to Employee
Rollover Agreements (as defined in the Merger Agreement) (the Rollover Holders)) not exercised
prior to the consummation of the Merger will be cancelled and converted into the right to receive a
cash payment equal to the number of shares of Bright Horizons Common Stock underlying the options
multiplied by the amount by which $48.25 exceeds the option exercise price, without interest and
less any applicable withholding taxes. Upon consummation of the Merger, except as otherwise agreed
by the holder and Parent, all shares of restricted stock will vest and those shares will be
cancelled and converted into the right to receive a cash payment equal to the number of outstanding
restricted shares multiplied by $48.25, without interest and less any applicable withholding taxes.
Additionally, all restricted share units will be converted into shares of Bright Horizons Common
Stock immediately prior to the Merger and such shares will be cashed out at $48.25 per share,
without interest and less any applicable withholding taxes. Certain options to purchase Bright
Horizons Common Stock held by certain of the Rollover Holders that are not exercised prior to
consummation of the Merger may be converted into options to acquire
shares of common stock of Parent or one of its affiliates.
Concurrently with the filing of this Transaction Statement, the Company is filing with the
Securities and Exchange Commission a definitive Proxy Statement (the Proxy Statement) under
Regulation 14A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act), relating to
the special meeting of the stockholders of the Company at which the stockholders of the Company
will consider and vote upon a proposal to adopt the Merger Agreement. The adoption of the Merger
Agreement requires the affirmative vote of stockholders holding at least a majority of the shares
of voting Bright Horizons Common Stock outstanding as of the close of business on the record date
relating to the special meeting of stockholders.
The cross references below are being supplied pursuant to General Instruction G to Schedule
13E-3 and show the location in the Proxy Statement of the information required to be included in
