CUSIP No. 146229109
 
 
This Amendment No. 5 (“Amendment No. 5”) amends the Schedule 13D first filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on May 24, 2011 and as subsequently amended on June 9, 2011, August 10, 2011, May 1, 2012 and October 2, 2012 (the “Schedule 13D”), and is filed by Berkshire Fund VII, L.P. (“Fund VII”), Berkshire Fund VII-A, L.P. (“Fund VII-A”), Berkshire Investors IV LLC (“Investors IV”), Berkshire Investors III LLC (“Investors III”), Stockbridge Fund, L.P. (f/k/a Stockbridge Special Situations Fund, L.P.) (“SF”), Stockbridge Absolute Return Fund, L.P. (“SARF”), Stockbridge Partners LLC (“SP”), Berkshire Partners LLC (“BP”), Stockbridge Fund M, L.P. (“SFM”), and Stockbridge Master Fund (OS), L.P. (“SOS”) (each a “Reporting Person” and collectively the “Reporting Persons”), with respect to the common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”), of Carter’s, Inc. (the “Company” or the “Issuer”).  Unless otherwise indicated, all capitalized terms used and not defined herein have the respective meanings assigned to them in the Schedule 13D.
 
 
Item 5.     Interests in the Securities of the Issuer.
 
 Items 5(a), (b), (c) and (e) of the Schedule 13D are amended in their entirety as follows:
 
(a) and (b)
 
The responses of the Reporting Persons to Rows (7) through (13) of the cover pages of this Amendment No. 5 are incorporated herein by reference.  As of close of business on January 18, 2013, after giving effect to the distribution described in Item (c) below, the Reporting Persons beneficially owned in the aggregate 2,892,600 shares of Common Stock, representing approximately 4.9% of the shares of Common Stock outstanding (based on the number of shares outstanding as of November 1, 2012, being 59,033,166 shares of Common Stock, as reported in the Issuer’s Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended September 29, 2012).
 
As the sole general partner of Fund VII and Fund VII-A, 7BA may be deemed to beneficially own the shares of Common Stock held by Fund VII and Fund VII-A.  However, 7BA disclaims beneficial ownership of such shares of Common Stock, and the filing of this Amendment No. 5 shall not be construed as an admission that 7BA is, for the purpose of Section 13(d) of the Act (or any other purpose), the beneficial owner of such shares held by Fund VII and Fund VII-A.  As the sole general partner of SF, SARF, SFM and SOS, SA may be deemed to beneficially own shares of Common Stock held by SF, SARF, SFM and SOS.  However, SA disclaims beneficial ownership of such shares of Common Stock, and the filing of this Amendment No. 5 shall not be construed as an admission that SA is, for the purpose of Section 13(d) of the Act (or any other purpose), the beneficial owner of such shares held by SF, SARF, SFM and SOS.
 
By virtue of the relationships described herein, the Reporting Persons may be deemed a “group” within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) of the Act.  As a member of a group, each Reporting Person may be deemed to share voting and dispositive power with respect to, and therefore beneficially own, the shares beneficially owned by members of the group as a whole.  The filing of Schedule 13D and this Amendment No. 5 shall not be construed as an admission that the Reporting Persons beneficially own those shares held by any other members of the group.  By virtue of their positions as managing members of 7BA, Investors IV, Investors III, SA and BP, the Berkshire Principals may be deemed to possess indirect beneficial ownership of the shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by Fund VII, Fund VII-A, Investors IV, Investors III, SF, SARF, SFM, SOS and SP.  However, none of the Berkshire Principals, acting alone, has voting or investment power with respect to shares beneficially owned by Fund VII, Fund VII-A, Investors IV, Investors III, SF, SARF, SFM, SOS and SP, and, as a result, each Berkshire Principal disclaims beneficial ownership of such shares of Common Stock.
 
 
       (c)
 
On January 18, 2013, certain of the Reporting Persons made a pro-rata distribution of 2,613,000 shares of Common Stock to their respective partners or members.
 
 
(e)
 
 
After giving effect to the distribution described in Item 5(c), the Reporting Persons ceased to be the beneficial owners of more than five percent of the Common Stock.
