Item 8.01 Other Events.

 

On April 15, 2016, Laureate Education, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into separate, privately negotiated note exchange agreements (the “Note Exchange Agreements”) with certain then existing holders (the “Existing Holders”) of the Company’s outstanding 9.250% Senior Notes due 2019 (the “Senior Notes”).  The Note Exchange Agreements required that, among other things, within 60 days after February 6, 2017, the date of the consummation of the Company’s initial public offering, at the option of the Existing Holders or their transferees, the Company repurchase up to $62.5 million aggregate principal amount of Senior Notes at the redemption price set forth in the indenture governing the Senior Notes that was applicable as of January 31, 2017, the date of pricing of the Company’s initial public offering, plus accrued and unpaid interest and special interest (the “Subsequent Repurchase”).

 

On March 1, 2017, the Company consummated the Subsequent Repurchase and repurchased Senior Notes with an aggregate principal amount of $22,556,000 at a repurchase price of 104.625% of the aggregate principal amount for a total payment to the Existing Holders or their transferees of $23,599,215.  The Subsequent Repurchase occurred on an interest payment date and accrued and unpaid interest and special interest on the redeemed Senior Notes was paid in the same manner as other regularly scheduled interest payments under the Senior Notes.

 

The foregoing description of the Note Exchange Agreements does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Note Exchange Agreements, a form of which was filed as Exhibit 10.53 to the Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-207243) filed by the Company with the SEC on May 20, 2016 and is incorporated by reference into this Item 8.01.
