Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On August 13, 2025, PACS Group, Inc. (the “Company”), PACS Holdings, LLC (the “Borrower”), Truist Bank, as administrative agent (in such capacity, the “Administrative Agent”), and the lenders (the “Lenders”) party thereto entered into that certain Forbearance Agreement and Fifth Amendment to Credit Agreement (the “Agreement”). Pursuant to the Agreement the Lenders agreed to (i) a forbearance in respect of certain events of default, which are described in the following paragraph and (ii) certain amendments to that certain Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated December 7, 2023 (as amended, restated, amended and restated, supplemented, or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”), by and among, inter alios¸ the Company, the Borrower, and the Administrative Agent.
As described in the Agreement, the Borrower notified the Administrative Agent and the Lenders of the occurrence of certain Events of Default under and as defined in the Credit Agreement, including the “Representation and Warranty Events of Default,” which relate to compliance certificates previously delivered in respect of the fiscal quarters ending March 31, 2024, June 30, 2024, September 30, 2024, December 31, 2024, and March 31, 2025. The Representation and Warranty Events of Default under the Credit Agreement also triggered an event of default under Third Consolidated Master Lease, dated June 30, 2023 (as amended, restated, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Omega Master Lease”), which in turn triggered an additional event of default under the Credit Agreement. Similarly, the Borrower identified a representation and warranty event of default under the Omega Master Lease that has triggered an additional event of default under the Credit Agreement.
The Administrative Agent and Lenders have agreed to temporarily forbear from exercising the rights and remedies available to them under the Credit Agreement as a result of these Events of Default during the Forbearance Period (as defined in the Agreement), which Forbearance Period shall run until October 31, 2025, subject to extension by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion through November 30, 2025, or by the Required Lenders (as defined in the Credit Agreement) thereafter, or earlier termination upon the occurrence of certain specified events as set forth in the Agreement. Additionally, the landlords under the Omega Master Lease have also agreed to forbear from exercising the rights and remedies available to them under the Omega Master Lease as a result of the various Events of Default through the Forbearance Period.
During the Forbearance Period, the Borrower must comply with certain specified conditions, including the maintenance of minimum liquidity of $100,000,000, limitations on certain investments and acquisitions, and a prohibition on the borrowing of new loans under the Credit Agreement. The Agreement also amends Section 5.1(a) of the Credit Agreement providing additional time for Borrower’s delivery of audited annual financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 through the end of the Forbearance Period.
The effectiveness of the Agreement is subject to conditions, including repayment of certain loans and payment of a forbearance fee. The Agreement is intended to provide the Borrower with temporary relief while addressing the Existing Events of Default and does not constitute a waiver of the Existing Events of Default or amendment of the Credit Agreement beyond the amended terms specified therein.
The foregoing description of the Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Agreement, which will be filed as an exhibit to the Company's next filed Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
