Exhibit A

Terms of Incentive Equity

The Executive will be eligible to participate in the Study Island Holdings, LLC 2007 Equity Compensation Plan. Upon acceptance of this Agreement, the Board will allocate a total of 902,754 incentive shares to the Executive: 451,377 of Class B Participation Shares and 451,377 of Class C Performance Shares. Under the plan, the Class C Performance Shares would vest as of the grant date and the value of such shares would be subject to performance hurdles. Further, under the plan, the Class B Participation Shares would vest as follows: 20% on the first anniversary of the grant date, 20% on the second anniversary of the grant date, 20% on the third anniversary of the grant date, 20% on the fourth anniversary of the grant date, and 20% on the fifth anniversary of the grant date. For Class B Participation Shares, the Executive will be “fully vested” after five (5) years, meaning he will be entitled to the value of 100% of the Participation Shares. However, the Class B Participation Shares cease to vest once a participant is no longer employed by the Company. Class B Participation Shares and Class C Performance Shares are subject to cancellation under certain circumstances.
