 Exhibit 10.10 
 BRIGHT HORIZONS FAMILY SOLUTIONS INC. 
 2012 OMNIBUS LONG-TERM INCENTIVE
PLAN 
  

	1.	DEFINED TERMS 

 Exhibit
A, which is incorporated by reference, defines the terms used in the Plan and sets forth certain operational rules related to those terms. 
  

	2.	PURPOSE 

 The Plan has
been established to advance the interests of the Company by providing for the grant to Participants of Stock-based and other incentive Awards. 
  

	3.	ADMINISTRATION 

 The
Administrator has discretionary authority, subject only to the express provisions of the Plan, to interpret the Plan; determine eligibility for and grant Awards; determine, modify or waive the terms and conditions of any Award; prescribe forms,
rules and procedures relating to the Plan; and otherwise do all things necessary or appropriate to carry out the purposes of the Plan. Determinations of the Administrator made under the Plan will be conclusive and will bind all parties. 

 

	4.	LIMITS ON AWARDS UNDER THE PLAN 

 (a) Number of Shares. The maximum number of shares of Stock that may be delivered in satisfaction of Awards under the Plan is five million (5,000,000) shares. Up to the total number of
shares available for awards to employee Participants may be issued in satisfaction of ISOs, but nothing in this Section 4(a) will be construed as requiring that any, or any fixed number of, ISOs be awarded under the Plan. For purposes of this
Section 4(a), the number of shares of Stock delivered in satisfaction of Awards will be determined, for the avoidance of doubt, without including any shares of Stock underlying the portion of any Award that is settled in cash or that otherwise
expires, terminates or is forfeited prior to the issuance of Stock thereunder. Any shares of Stock withheld by the Company in satisfaction of the payment of the exercise price of an Award or in satisfaction of tax withholding requirements with
respect to the Award shall be treated as having been delivered under the Plan. To the extent consistent with the requirements of Section 422 and other applicable requirements (including applicable stock exchange requirements), Stock issued
under Substitute Awards shall not reduce the number of shares available for Awards under the Plan. The shares which may be delivered under Substitute Awards shall be in addition to the limitations set forth in this Section 4(a) on the number of
shares available for issuance under the Plan, and such Substitute Awards shall not be subject to the per-Participant Award limits described in Section 4(c) below. 
 (b) Type of Shares. Stock delivered by the Company under the Plan may be authorized but unissued Stock or previously issued Stock acquired by the Company. 

 (c) Section 162(m) Limits. The following additional limits will apply to
Awards of the specified type granted or, in the case of Cash Awards, payable to any person in any calendar year: 
  

	 	(1)	Stock Options: five-hundred thousand (500,000) shares of Stock. 

 

	 	(2)	SARs: five-hundred thousand (500,000) shares of Stock. 

  

	 	(3)	Awards other than Stock Options, SARs or Cash Awards: two-hundred and fifty thousand (250,000) shares of Stock. 

 

	 	(4)	Cash Awards: two-hundred and fifty thousand dollars ($250,000). 

 In applying the foregoing limits, (i) all Awards of the specified type granted to the same person in the same calendar year will be aggregated and made subject to one limit; (ii) the limits
applicable to Stock Options and SARs refer to the number of shares of Stock subject to those Awards; and (iii) the share limit under clause (3) refers to the maximum number of shares of Stock that may be delivered, under an Award or Awards
of the type specified in clause (3) assuming a maximum payout. The foregoing provisions will be construed in a manner consistent with Section 162(m), including, without limitation, where applicable, the rules under Section 162(m)
pertaining to permissible deferrals of exempt awards. 
  

	5.	ELIGIBILITY AND PARTICIPATION 

 The Administrator will select Participants from among key Employees and directors of, and consultants and advisors to, the Company and its Affiliates. Eligibility for ISOs is limited to individuals
described in the first sentence of this Section 5 who are employees of the Company or of a “parent corporation” or “subsidiary corporation” of the Company as those terms are defined in Section 424 of the Code.
Eligibility for Stock Options other than ISOs is limited to individuals described in the first sentence of this Section 5 who are providing direct services on the date of grant of the Stock Option to the Company or to a subsidiary of the
Company that would be described in the first sentence of Treas. Regs. §1.409A-1(b)(5)(iii)(E). 
  

	6.	RULES APPLICABLE TO AWARDS 

(a) All Awards. 
 (1) Award Provisions. The Administrator will determine the terms of all Awards, subject to the limitations provided herein. By accepting (or, under such rules as the Administrator may
prescribe, being deemed to have accepted) an Award, the Participant will be deemed to have agreed to the terms of the Award and the Plan. Notwithstanding any provision of this Plan to the contrary, Substitute Awards may contain terms and conditions
that are inconsistent with the terms and conditions specified herein, as determined by the Administrator. 
 (2) Term of
Plan. No Awards may be made after ten years from the Date of Adoption, but previously granted Awards may continue beyond that date in accordance with their terms. 

  
 2 

 (3) Transferability. Neither ISOs nor, except as the Administrator otherwise
expressly provides in accordance with the second sentence of this Section 6(a)(3), other Awards may be transferred other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. During a Participant’s lifetime, ISOs (and, except as the
Administrator otherwise expressly provides in accordance with the second sentence of this Section 6(a)(3), SARs and NSOs) may be exercised only by the Participant. The Administrator may permit the gratuitous transfer (i.e., transfer not
for value) of Awards other than ISOs to any transferee eligible to be covered by the provisions of Form S-8 (under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended), subject to such limitations as the Administrator may impose. 

(4) Vesting, etc. The Administrator will determine the time or times at which an Award will vest or become exercisable and
the terms on which a Stock Option or SAR will remain exercisable. Without limiting the foregoing, the Administrator may at any time accelerate the vesting or exercisability of an Award, regardless of any adverse or potentially adverse tax or other
consequences resulting from such acceleration. Unless the Administrator expressly provides otherwise, however, the following rules will apply if a Participant’s Employment ceases: 

(A) Immediately upon the cessation of the Participant’s Employment and except as provided in (B), (C),
(D) or (E) below, each Stock Option and SAR that is then held by the Participant or by the Participant’s permitted transferees, if any, will cease to be exercisable and will terminate and all other Awards that are then held by the
Participant or by the Participant’s permitted transferees, if any, to the extent not already vested will be forfeited. 
 (B) Subject to (C), (D) and (E) below, all Stock Options and SARs held by the Participant or the Participant’s permitted transferees, if any, immediately prior to the cessation of
the Participant’s Employment, to the extent then exercisable, will remain exercisable for the lesser of (i) a period of sixty (60) days or (ii) the period ending on the latest date on which such Stock Option or SAR could have
been exercised without regard to this Section 6(a)(4), and will thereupon immediately terminate. 
 (C)
All Stock Options and SARs held by a Participant or the Participant’s permitted transferees, if any, immediately prior to the Participant’s cessation of Employment by reason of death, to the extent then exercisable, will remain
exercisable for the lesser of (i) the one year period ending with the first anniversary of the Participant’s death or (ii) the period ending on the latest date on which such Stock Option or SAR could have been exercised without regard
to this Section 6(a)(4), and will thereupon immediately terminate. 
 (D) All Stock Options and SARs
held by a Participant or the Participant’s permitted transferees, if any, immediately prior to the Participant’s cessation of Employment by reason of Disability, to the extent then exercisable, will remain exercisable for the lesser of
(i) a period of one hundred and eighty (180) days, or (ii) the period ending on the latest date on which such Stock Option or SAR could have been exercised without regard to this Section 6(a)(4), and will thereupon immediately
terminate. 

  
 3 

 (E) All Stock Options and SARs held by a Participant or the
Participant’s permitted transferees, if any, immediately prior to the Participant’s cessation of Employment by reason of Retirement, to the extent then exercisable, will remain exercisable for the lesser of (i) a period of ninety
(90) days, or (ii) the period ending on the latest date on which such Stock Option or SAR could have been exercised without regard to this Section 6(a)(4), and will thereupon immediately terminate. 

(F) All Stock Options and SARs (whether or not exercisable) held by a Participant or the Participant’s
permitted transferees, if any, immediately prior to the cessation of the Participant’s Employment will immediately terminate upon such cessation of Employment if the termination is for Cause or occurs in circumstances that in the sole
determination of the Administrator would have constituted grounds for the Participant’s Employment to be terminated for Cause. 
 (5) Additional Restrictions. The Administrator may cancel, rescind, withhold or otherwise limit or restrict any Award at any time if the Participant is not in compliance with all applicable
provisions of the Award agreement and the Plan, or if the Participant breaches any agreement with the Company or its Affiliates with respect to non-competition, non-solicitation or confidentiality. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,
the Administrator may recover Awards made under the Plan and payments under or gain in respect of any Award to the extent required to comply with (i) Section 10D of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or any stock exchange or
similar rule adopted under said Section or (ii) any applicable Company clawback or recoupment policy as in effect from time to time. 
 (6) Taxes. The delivery, vesting and retention of Stock, cash or other property under an Award are conditioned upon full satisfaction by the Participant of all tax withholding requirements
with respect to the Award. The Administrator will prescribe such rules for the withholding of taxes as it deems necessary. The Administrator may, but need not, hold back shares of Stock from an Award or permit a Participant to tender previously
owned shares of Stock in satisfaction of tax withholding requirements (but not in excess of the minimum withholding required by law). 
 (7) Dividend Equivalents, Etc. The Administrator may provide for the payment of amounts (on terms and subject to conditions established by the Administrator) in lieu of cash dividends or
other cash distributions with respect to Stock subject to an Award whether or not the holder of such Award is otherwise entitled to share in the actual dividend or distribution in respect of such Award. Any entitlement to dividend equivalents or
similar entitlements will be established and administered either consistent with an exemption from, or in compliance with, the requirements of Section 409A. Dividends or dividend equivalent amounts payable in respect of Awards that are subject
to restrictions may be subject to such limits or restrictions as the Administrator may impose. 
 (8) Rights
Limited. Nothing in the Plan will be construed as giving any person the right to continued employment or service with the Company or its Affiliates, or any rights as a stockholder except as to shares of Stock actually issued under the Plan.
The loss of existing or potential profit in Awards will not constitute an element of damages in the event of termination of Employment for any reason, even if the termination is in violation of an obligation of the Company or any Affiliate to the
Participant. 

  
 4 

 (9) Section 162(m). In the case of any Performance Award (other than a
Stock Option or SAR) intended to qualify for the performance-based compensation exception under Section 162(m), the Administrator will establish the applicable Performance Criterion or Criteria in writing no later than ninety (90) days
after the commencement of the period of service to which the performance relates (or at such earlier time as is required to qualify the Award as performance-based under Section 162(m)) and, prior to the event or occurrence (grant, vesting or
payment, as the case may be) that is conditioned on the attainment of such Performance Criterion or Criteria, will certify whether it or they have been attained. The preceding sentence will not apply to an Award eligible (as determined by the
Administrator) for exemption from the limitations of Section 162(m) by reason of the post-initial public offering transition relief in Section 1.162-27(f) of the Treasury Regulations. 

(10) Coordination with Other Plans. Awards under the Plan may be granted in tandem with, or in satisfaction of or
substitution for, other Awards under the Plan or awards made under other compensatory plans or programs of the Company or its Affiliates. For example, but without limiting the generality of the foregoing, awards under other compensatory plans or
programs of the Company or its Affiliates may be settled in Stock (including, without limitation, Unrestricted Stock) if the Administrator so determines, in which case the shares delivered will be treated as awarded under the Plan (and will reduce
the number of shares thereafter available under the Plan in accordance with the rules set forth in Section 4). In any case where an award is made under another plan or program of the Company or its Affiliates and such award is intended to
qualify for the performance-based compensation exception under Section 162(m), and such award is settled by the delivery of Stock or another Award under the Plan, the applicable Section 162(m) limitations under both the other plan or
program and under the Plan will be applied to the Plan as necessary (as determined by the Administrator) to preserve the availability of the Section 162(m) performance-based compensation exception with respect thereto. 

(11) Section 409A. Each Award will contain such terms as the Administrator determines, and will be construed and
administered, such that the Award either qualifies for an exemption from the requirements of Section 409A or satisfies such requirements. 
 (12) Fair Market Value. In determining the fair market value of any share of Stock under the Plan, the Administrator will make the determination in good faith consistent with the rules of
Section 422 and Section 409A to the extent applicable. 
 (b) Stock Options and SARs.  

(1) Time And Manner Of Exercise. Unless the Administrator expressly provides otherwise, no Stock Option or SAR will be
deemed to have been exercised until the Administrator receives a notice of exercise (in form acceptable to the Administrator), which may be an electronic notice, signed (including electronic signature in form acceptable to the Administrator) by the
appropriate person and accompanied by any payment required under the Award. A Stock Option or SAR exercised by any person other than the Participant will not be deemed to have been exercised until the Administrator has received such evidence as it
may require that the person exercising the Award has the right to do so. 

  
 5 

 (2) Exercise Price. The exercise price (or the base value from which
appreciation is to be measured) of each Award requiring exercise will be no less than 100% (or in the case of an ISO granted to a ten-percent shareholder within the meaning of subsection (b)(6) of Section 422, 110%) of the fair market value of
the Stock subject to the Award, determined as of the date of grant, or such higher amount as the Administrator may determine in connection with the grant. Except in connection with a corporate transaction involving the Company (which term shall
include, without limitation, any stock dividend, stock split, extraordinary cash dividend, recapitalization, reorganization, merger, consolidation, split-up, spin-off, combination, or exchange of shares), the terms of outstanding Awards may not be
amended to reduce the exercise prices of outstanding Stock Options or the base values from which appreciation under outstanding SARs are to be measured, or cancel, exchange, substitute, buyout or surrender outstanding Stock Options or SARs in
exchange for cash, other awards or Stock Options or SARs with an exercise price that is less than the exercise prices of the original Stock Options or base values of the original SARs other than in accordance with the stockholder approval
requirements of the New York Stock Exchange. 
 (3) Payment Of Exercise Price. Where the exercise of an Award is
to be accompanied by payment, payment of the exercise price will be by cash or check acceptable to the Administrator or by such other legally permissible means, if any, as may be acceptable to the Administrator. 

(4) Maximum Term. Stock Options and SARs will have a maximum term not to exceed ten (10) years
from the date of grant (or five (5) years from the date of grant in the case of an ISO granted to a ten-percent shareholder described in Section 6(b)(2) above); provided, however, that, if a Participant still holding an outstanding but
unexercised NSO or SAR ten (10) years from the date of grant (or, in the case of an NSO or SAR with a maximum term of less than ten (10) years, such maximum term) is prohibited by applicable law or a written policy of the Company
applicable to similarly situated employees from engaging in any open-market sales of Stock, and if at such time the Stock is publicly traded (as determined by the Administrator), the maximum term of such Award will instead be deemed to expire on the
thirtieth (30th) day following the date the
Participant is no longer prohibited from engaging in such open market sales. 
  

	7.	EFFECT OF CERTAIN TRANSACTIONS 

 (a) Mergers, etc. Except as otherwise provided in an Award agreement, the following provisions will apply in the event of a Covered
Transaction: 
 (1) Assumption or Substitution. If the Covered Transaction is one in which there is an acquiring
or surviving entity, the Administrator may (but, for the avoidance of doubt, need not) provide (i) for the assumption or continuation of some or all outstanding Awards or any portion thereof or (ii) for the grant of new awards in
substitution therefor by the acquirer or survivor or an affiliate of the acquirer or survivor. 

  
 6 

 (2) Cash-Out of Awards. Subject to Section 7(a)(5) below the
Administrator may (but, for the avoidance of doubt, need not) provide for payment (a “cash-out”), with respect to some or all Awards or any portion thereof, equal in the case of each affected Award or portion thereof to the excess, if any,
of (A) the fair market value of one share of Stock (as determined by the Administrator in its reasonable discretion) times the number of shares of Stock subject to the Award or such portion, over (B) the aggregate exercise or purchase
price, if any, under the Award or such portion (in the case of an SAR, the aggregate base value above which appreciation is measured), in each case on such payment terms (which need not be the same as the terms of payment to holders of Stock) and
other terms, and subject to such conditions, as the Administrator determines. 
 (3) Acceleration of Certain Awards.
Subject to Section 7(a)(5) below, the Administrator may (but, for the avoidance of doubt, need not) provide that any Award requiring exercise will become exercisable, in full or in part, and/or that the delivery of any shares of Stock
remaining deliverable under any outstanding Award of Stock Units (including Restricted Stock Units and Performance Awards to the extent consisting of Stock Units) will be accelerated in full or in part, in each case on a basis that gives the holder
of the Award a reasonable opportunity, as determined by the Administrator, following exercise of the Award or the delivery of the shares, as the case may be, to participate as a stockholder in the Covered Transaction. 

(4) Termination of Awards Upon Consummation of Covered Transaction. Except as the Administrator may otherwise determine in
any case, each Award will automatically terminate (and in the case of outstanding shares of Restricted Stock, will automatically be forfeited) upon consummation of the Covered Transaction, other than Awards assumed pursuant to Section 7(a)(1)
above. 
 (5) Additional Limitations. Any share of Stock and any cash or other property delivered pursuant to
Section 7(a)(2) or Section 7(a)(3) above with respect to an Award may, in the discretion of the Administrator, contain such restrictions, if any, as the Administrator deems appropriate to reflect any performance or other vesting conditions
to which the Award was subject and that did not lapse (and were not satisfied) in connection with the Covered Transaction. For purposes of the immediately preceding sentence, a cash-out under Section 7(a)(2) above or acceleration under
Section 7(a)(3) above will not, in and of itself, be treated as the lapsing (or satisfaction) of a performance or other vesting condition. In the case of Restricted Stock that does not vest and is not forfeited in connection with the Covered
Transaction, the Administrator may require that any amounts delivered, exchanged or otherwise paid in respect of such Stock in connection with the Covered Transaction be placed in escrow or otherwise made subject to such restrictions as the
Administrator deems appropriate to carry out the intent of the Plan. 
 (b) Changes in and Distributions With Respect to
Stock.  
 (1) Basic Adjustment Provisions. In the event of a stock dividend, stock split or combination
of shares (including a reverse stock split), recapitalization or other change in the Company’s capital structure that constitutes an equity restructuring within the meaning of FASB ASC 718, the Administrator will make appropriate adjustments to
the maximum number of shares specified in Section 4(a) that may be delivered under the Plan and to the maximum 

  
 7 

 
share limits described in Section 4(c), and will also make appropriate adjustments to the number and kind of shares of stock or securities subject to Awards then outstanding or subsequently
granted, any exercise prices relating to Awards and any other provision of Awards affected by such change. 
 (2) Certain
Other Adjustments. The Administrator may also make adjustments of the type described in Section 7(b)(1) above to take into account distributions to stockholders other than those provided for in Section 7(a) and 7(b)(1), or any
other event, if the Administrator determines that adjustments are appropriate to avoid distortion in the operation of the Plan. 

(3) Continuing Application of Plan Terms. References in the Plan to shares of Stock will be construed to include any stock
or securities resulting from an adjustment pursuant to this Section 7. 
  

	8.	LEGAL CONDITIONS ON DELIVERY OF STOCK 

 The Company will not be obligated to deliver any shares of Stock pursuant to the Plan or to remove any restriction from shares of Stock previously delivered under the Plan until: (i) the Company is
satisfied that all legal matters in connection with the issuance and delivery of such shares have been addressed and resolved; (ii) if the outstanding Stock is at the time of delivery listed on any stock exchange or national market system, the
shares to be delivered have been listed or authorized to be listed on such exchange or system upon official notice of issuance; and (iii) all conditions of the Award have been satisfied or waived. The Company may require, as a condition to
exercise of the Award, such representations or agreements as counsel for the Company may consider appropriate to avoid violation of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or any applicable state or non-U.S. securities law. Any Stock required to be
issued to Participants under the Plan will be evidenced in such manner as the Administrator may deem appropriate, including book-entry registration or delivery of stock certificates. In the event that the Administrator determines that Stock
certificates will be issued to Participants under the Plan, the Administrator may require that certificates evidencing Stock issued under the Plan bear an appropriate legend reflecting any restriction on transfer applicable to such Stock, and the
Company may hold the certificates pending lapse of the applicable restrictions. 
  

	9.	AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION 

The Administrator may at any time or times amend the Plan or any outstanding Award for any purpose which may at the time be permitted by
law, and may at any time terminate the Plan as to any future grants of Awards; provided, that except as otherwise expressly provided in the Plan the Administrator may not, without the Participant’s consent, alter the terms of an Award so as to
affect materially and adversely the Participant’s rights under the Award, unless the Administrator expressly reserved the right to do so at the time the Award was granted. Any amendments to the Plan will be conditioned upon stockholder approval
only to the extent, if any, such approval is required by law (including the Code and applicable stock exchange requirements), as determined by the Administrator. 

  
 8 

	10.	OTHER COMPENSATION ARRANGEMENTS 

 The existence of the Plan or the grant of any Award will not in any way affect the Company’s right to Award a person bonuses or other compensation in addition to Awards under the Plan. 

 

	11.	MISCELLANEOUS 

 (a)
Waiver of Jury Trial. By accepting an Award under the Plan, each Participant waives any right to a trial by jury in any action, proceeding or counterclaim concerning any rights under the Plan and any Award, or under any amendment, waiver,
consent, instrument, document or other agreement delivered or which in the future may be delivered in connection therewith, and agrees that any such action, proceedings or counterclaim will be tried before a court and not before a jury. By accepting
an Award under the Plan, each Participant certifies that no officer, representative, or attorney of the Company has represented, expressly or otherwise, that the Company would not, in the event of any action, proceeding or counterclaim, seek to
enforce the foregoing waivers. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Plan, nothing herein is to be construed as limiting the ability of the Company and a Participant to agree to submit disputes arising under the terms of the Plan or any
Award made hereunder to binding arbitration or as limiting the ability of the Company to require any eligible individual to agree to submit such disputes to binding arbitration as a condition of receiving an Award hereunder. 

(b) Limitation of Liability. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Plan, neither the Company, nor any Affiliate,
nor the Administrator, nor any person acting on behalf of the Company, any Affiliate, or the Administrator, will be liable to any Participant or to the estate or beneficiary of any Participant or to any other holder of an Award by reason of any
acceleration of income, or any additional tax (including any interest and penalties), asserted by reason of the failure of an Award to satisfy the requirements of Section 422 or Section 409A or by reason of Section 4999 of the Code,
or otherwise asserted with respect to the Award; provided, that nothing in this Section 11(b) will limit the ability of the Administrator or the Company, in its discretion, to provide by separate express written agreement with a Participant for
any payment in connection with any such acceleration of income or additional tax. 
  

	12.	ESTABLISHMENT OF SUB-PLANS 

The Administrator may from time to time establish one or more sub-plans under the Plan for purposes of satisfying applicable blue sky,
securities or tax laws of various jurisdictions. The Administrator will establish such sub-plans by adopting supplements to the Plan setting forth (i) such limitations on the Administrator’s discretion under the Plan as it deems necessary
or desirable and (ii) such additional terms and conditions not otherwise inconsistent with the Plan as it deems necessary or desirable. All supplements so established will be deemed to be part of the Plan, but each supplement will apply only to
Participants within the affected jurisdiction (as determined by the Administrator). 

  
 9 

	13.	GOVERNING LAW 

 (a)
Certain Requirements of Corporate Law. Awards will be granted and administered consistent with the requirements of applicable Delaware law relating to the issuance of stock and the consideration to be received therefor, and with the
applicable requirements of the stock exchanges or other trading systems on which the Stock is listed or entered for trading, in each case as determined by the Administrator. 
 (b) Other Matters. Except as otherwise provided by the express terms of an Award agreement, under a sub-plan described in Section 12 or as provided in Section 13(a) above, the
provisions of the Plan and of Awards under the Plan and all claims or disputes arising out of our based upon the Plan or any Award under the Plan or relating to the subject matter hereof or thereof will be governed by and construed in accordance
with the domestic substantive laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts without giving effect to any choice or conflict of laws provision or rule that would cause the application of the domestic substantive laws of any other jurisdiction.

 (c) Jurisdiction. By accepting an Award, each Participant will be deemed to (a) have submitted irrevocably
and unconditionally to the jurisdiction of the federal and state courts located within the geographic boundaries of the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts for the purpose of any suit, action or other proceeding arising
out of or based upon the Plan or any Award; (b) agree not to commence any suit, action or other proceeding arising out of or based upon the Plan or an Award, except in the federal and state courts located within the geographic boundaries of the
United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts; and (c) waive, and agree not to assert, by way of motion as a defense or otherwise, in any such suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not subject personally to the
jurisdiction of the above-named courts that its property is exempt or immune from attachment or execution, that the suit, action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum, that the venue of the suit, action or proceeding is improper or that
the Plan or an Award or the subject matter thereof may not be enforced in or by such court.

a Participant’s employment or other service relationship is with an Affiliate and that entity ceases to be an Affiliate, the Participant’s Employment will be deemed to have terminated when the entity ceases to be an Affiliate unless the
Participant transfers Employment to the Company or its 

  
 12 

 
remaining Affiliates. Notwithstanding the foregoing and the definition of “Affiliate” above, in construing the provisions of any Award relating to the payment of “nonqualified
deferred compensation” (subject to Section 409A) upon a termination or cessation of Employment, references to termination or cessation of employment, separation from service, retirement or similar or correlative terms will be construed to
require a “separation from service” (as that term is defined in Section 1.409A-1(h) of the Treasury Regulations) from the Company and from all other corporations and trades or businesses, if any, that would be treated as a single
“service recipient” with the Company under Section 1.409A-1(h)(3) of the Treasury Regulations. The Company may, but need not, elect in writing, subject to the applicable limitations under Section 409A, any of the special elective
rules prescribed in Section 1.409A-1(h) of the Treasury Regulations for purposes of determining whether a “separation from service” has occurred. Any such written election will be deemed a part of the Plan. 

“ISO”: A Stock Option intended to be an “incentive stock option” within the meaning of Section 422. Each
Stock Option granted pursuant to the Plan will be treated as providing by its terms that it is to be an NSO unless, as of the date of grant, it is expressly designated as an ISO. 

“NSO”: A Stock Option that is not intended to be an “incentive stock option” within the meaning of
Section 422. 
 “Participant”: A person who is granted an Award under the Plan. 

“Performance Award”: An Award subject to Performance Criteria. The Administrator in its discretion may grant Performance
Awards that are intended to qualify for the performance-based compensation exception under Section 162(m) and Performance Awards that are not intended so to qualify. 
 “Performance Criteria”: Specified criteria, other than the mere continuation of Employment or the mere passage of time, the satisfaction of which is a condition for the grant,
exercisability, vesting or full enjoyment of an Award. For purposes of Awards that are intended to qualify for the performance-based compensation exception under Section 162(m), a Performance Criterion will mean an objectively determinable
measure or objectively determinable measures of performance relating to any or any combination of the following (measured either absolutely or by reference to an index or indices and determined either on a consolidated basis or, as the context
permits, on a divisional, subsidiary, line of business, project or geographical basis or in combinations thereof): sales; revenues; assets; expenses; earnings before or after deduction for all or any portion of interest, taxes, depreciation,
amortization or equity expense whether or not on a continuing operations or an aggregate or per share basis; return on equity, investment, capital, capital employed or assets; one or more operating ratios; operating income or profit, including on an
after-tax basis; net income; borrowing levels, leverage ratios or credit rating; market share; capital expenditures; cash flow; stock price; stockholder return; sales of particular services; customer acquisition or retention; acquisitions and
divestitures (in whole or in part); joint ventures and strategic alliances; spin-offs, split-ups and the like; reorganizations; or recapitalizations, restructurings, financings (issuance of debt or equity) or refinancing. A Performance Criterion and
any targets with respect thereto determined by the Administrator need not be based upon an increase, a positive or improved result or avoidance of loss. To the extent consistent with the requirements for satisfying the
performance-

  
 13 

 
based compensation exception under Section 162(m), the Administrator may provide in the case of any Award intended to qualify for such exception that one or more of the Performance Criteria
applicable to such Award will be adjusted in an objectively determinable manner to reflect events (for example, but without limitation, acquisitions or dispositions) occurring during the performance period that affect the applicable Performance
Criterion or Criteria. 
 “Plan”: The Bright Horizons Solutions Corp. 2012 Omnibus Long-Term Incentive Plan, as
from time to time amended and in effect. 
 “Restricted Stock”: Stock subject to restrictions requiring that it
be redelivered or offered for sale to the Company if specified conditions are not satisfied. 
 “Restricted Stock
Unit”: A Stock Unit that is, or as to which the delivery of Stock or cash in lieu of Stock is, subject to the satisfaction of specified performance or other vesting conditions. 

“Retirement”: A Participant’s (i) retirement other than by reason of Disability from service with the Company
upon or after attaining age sixty-five (65) or (ii) earlier retirement other than by reason of Disability from service with the Company with the express consent of the Company at or before the time of such retirement, provided that the
Participant has attained the age of fifty (50) and has been employed by the Company or its subsidiaries for at least fifteen (15) years at the time of such retirement. 

“SAR”: A right entitling the holder upon exercise to receive an amount (payable in cash or in shares of Stock of
equivalent value) equal to the excess of the fair market value of the shares of Stock subject to the right over the base value from which appreciation under the SAR is to be measured. 

“Section 409A”: Section 409A of the Code. 
 “Section 422”: Section 422 of the Code. 
 “Section
162(m)”: Section 162(m) of the Code.

Stock not subject to any restrictions under the terms of the Award.

organized under the laws of the Province of Ontario, Canada (the “Canadian Borrower”, and together with the Company, the “Borrowers”), the financial institutions listed on the signature pages hereof and JPMorgan
Chase Bank, N.A., as Administrative Agent (in such capacity, the “Administrative Agent”), under that certain Credit Agreement dated as of April 25, 2011 by and among the Company, the Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers from time to
time party thereto, the Lenders and the Administrative Agent (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”). Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall
have the respective meanings given to them in the Credit Agreement. 
 WHEREAS, the Borrowers have requested that the Required

 NOW, THEREFORE, in
consideration of the premises set forth above, the terms and conditions contained herein, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Borrowers, the Lenders party hereto and the
Administrative Agent hereby agree to enter into this Amendment. 
 1. Amendments to the Credit Agreement. Effective as of
the date of satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 2 below, the parties hereto agree that the Credit Agreement is hereby amended as follows:

 (b) (i) Investments existing on the date hereof and set forth on Schedule 6.04, (ii) loans
existing immediately prior to the Amendment No. 4 Date (other than the BV Intercompany Loan) by Domestic Loan Parties to Foreign Subsidiaries (and extensions, renewals and replacements of such loans, or recharacterizations of such loans as
equity), provided that the aggregate outstanding amount of such loans described in this clause (ii) does not at any time exceed $285,000,000 minus the amount of any such loan that has been recharacterized as equity, determined
immediately prior to such recharacterization, (iii) the BV Intercompany Loan, and (iv) the Specified Investments;

Senior Refinancing Indebtedness from a refinancing permitted by Section 6.09) that do not increase the outstanding principal amount thereof beyond the Permitted Refinancing Amount, it being understood and agreed that nothing in this clause
(i) shall prohibit the Company from paying any premiums, penalties or similar payments thereon, and fees and expenses in connection with any such refinancings, in cash rather than by incurring incremental Indebtedness therefor;
(ii) Indebtedness existing immediately prior to the Amendment No. 4 Date (other than the BV Intercompany Loan) of Foreign Subsidiaries owing to Domestic Loan Parties (and extensions, renewals and replacements of such loans),
provided that the aggregate outstanding amount of such Indebtedness described in this clause (ii) does not at any time exceed $285,000,000 minus the amount of any such loan that has been recharacterized as equity, determined
immediately prior to such recharacterization; (iii) the BV Intercompany Loan; and (iv) any Specified Investments to the extent constituting Indebtedness; 
 (d) The parenthetical appearing in Section 6.01(c) of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:

(e) Section 6.03(a)(iii) of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows: 

(iii) (A) any Subsidiary may sell, transfer, lease, distribute, dividend, or otherwise dispose of its assets, to a

warranty shall be true and correct in all material respects as of such earlier date). 
 4. Reference to and Effect on the
Credit Agreement. 
 (a) Upon the effectiveness hereof, each reference to the Credit Agreement in the Credit Agreement or any
other Loan Document shall mean and be a reference to the Credit Agreement as amended hereby. This Amendment is a Loan Document and shall (unless expressly indicated herein or therein) be construed, administered, and applied, in accordance with all

delivered in connection therewith.
