Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement. Senior Secured Notes Offering On January 26, 2026, Bristow Group Inc. (the “Company”) and its subsidiaries Bristow Holdings U.S. Inc., Bristow Holdings America Inc., BHNA Holdings Inc., Bristow Helicopters Inc., Bristow U.S. Leasing LLC, Era Aeróleo LLC, Aeróleo Internacional, LLC, Bristow LLC, Era Leasing LLC, Bristow U.S. LLC, Bristow Cayman Ltd., BriLog Leasing Ltd., Bristow Equipment Leasing Ltd., Bristow Canadian Real Estate Company Inc., Bristow Canada Holdings Inc., Bristow Helicopters Limited and Bristow Aircraft Leasing Limited (collectively, the “Guarantors”) entered into an Indenture (the “Indenture”) with U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as trustee (in such capacity, the “Trustee”) and as collateral agent, pursuant to which the Company issued $500,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its 6.750% Senior Secured Notes due 2033 (the “Notes”) in a private offering (the “Offering”) to eligible purchasers pursuant to Rule 144A and Regulation S under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). The Notes will initially be fully and unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, on a senior secured basis by the Guarantors. The Notes will be secured by first-priority security interests on certain helicopters and related assets, together with substantially all of the other tangible and intangible personal property assets of the Company and the Guarantors (other than certain excluded assets) (the “Collateral”) as collateral security for their obligations under the Notes, subject to certain limited exceptions. Certain of the security interests will be granted in connection with the execution and delivery of the Indenture, while security interests anticipated to cover approximately 119 aircraft will be granted within the periods described in the Indenture. The Notes will bear interest at a rate of 6.750% per year, payable semi-annually in arrears on February 1 and August 1 of each year, beginning August 1, 2026. The Notes will mature on February 1, 2033. The Company may redeem all or a portion of the Notes at any time on or after February 1, 2029 at the applicable redemption price in accordance with the terms of the Notes and the Indenture, plus accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Amounts (as defined in the Indenture), if any, to, but excluding, the redemption date. At any time prior to February 1, 2029, the Company may redeem all or a portion of the Notes at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of Notes to be redeemed plus a “make-whole” premium, plus accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Amounts, if any, to, but excluding, the redemption date. In addition, on or prior to February 1, 2029, the Company may redeem up to 40% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes at a redemption price equal to 106.750% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Amounts, if any, to, but excluding, the redemption date, with an amount of cash not greater than the net cash proceeds of certain qualified equity offerings by the Company. Further, during each of the successive 12-month periods commencing on February 1, 2026 and ending on February 1, 2029, the Company may redeem up to 10% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes at a redemption price equal to 103% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the redemption date. The Indenture contains customary covenants that restrict our ability and the ability of our restricted subsidiaries to, among other things, incur additional indebtedness, create liens and sell or otherwise dispose of the Collateral, including the pledged aircraft. The Indenture also contains customary events of default. If an event of default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may declare the unpaid principal of, and any premium and accrued and unpaid interest on, all the Notes then outstanding to be due and payable immediately. In case of certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization with respect to the Company, any Guarantor or any significant subsidiary, all of the principal of, and accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Amounts on, the Notes will automatically become due and payable. Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control Trigger Event (as defined in the Indenture), we will be required to make an offer to repurchase all or any part of each holder’s Notes at an offer price in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Amounts, if any, to, but excluding, the date of repurchase.

Amendment and Restatement of ABL Facility On January 26, 2026, the Company entered into a Deed of Amendment and Restatement, Accession, Resignation and Confirmation, dated January 26, 2026 (the “ABL Amendment”), among the Company as parent and guarantor, Bristow Helicopters Limited and Bristow LLC as borrowers, guarantors and security obligors, Bristow Norway AS and Bristow U.S. LLC as resigning borrowers, Bristow Ireland Limited as acceding guarantor, and Barclays Bank PLC as agent and security agent. The ABL Amendment amended and restated that certain ABL Facilities Agreement, dated April 17, 2018 (as amended), relating to the Company’s asset-backed revolving credit facility (the “ABL Facility”). The ABL Amendment (i) extended the maturity date to January 26, 2031 (subject to certain springing maturity provisions), (ii) removed Bristow Norway AS and Bristow U.S. LLC as borrowers, guarantors and grantors of collateral, (iii) designated Bristow Ireland Limited as a guarantor and grantor of collateral, (iv) reduced the total commitments under the ABL Facility from $85 million to $70 million, consisting of a $65 million first-out tranche and a $5 million last-in/last-out tranche, (v) subject to certain terms and conditions set out therein, permitted an increase of the total commitments up to a maximum aggregate amount of $105 million, and (vi) revised the interest rate pricing by reducing the applicable margin under each tranche by 25 basis points and eliminating the 0.10% credit spread adjustment in respect of the first-out tranche introduced in connection with the 2022 transition from the London Interbank Offered Rate to the secured overnight financing rate. The revised pricing results in the applicable margin under the first-out tranche ranging from 1.25% to 1.75%, depending on the average quarterly availability, and the applicable margin under the last-in/last-out tranche being 3%. The foregoing description of the ABL Amendment does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the ABL Amendment, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated by reference herein.
