RECITALS

WHEREAS, Section 26 of the Rights Agreement provides that at any time prior to the Distribution Date, the Company may, and the Rights Agent shall if the Company so directs, amend any provision of the Rights Agreement in any manner which the Company may deem necessary or desirable (including the date on which the Distribution Date or Expiration Date shall occur) without the approval of any Rights holder. Section 26 also provides that all amendments shall be in writing and must be authorized by the Board;

WHEREAS, on October 12, 2018, the Company entered into that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger (as amended from time to time, the “Merger Agreement”), with Campus Holding Corp., a Delaware corporation (“Parent”), and Campus Merger Sub Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Merger Sub” and together with Parent, the “Purchaser Entities”), pursuant to which Merger Sub will merge with and into the Company, with the Company surviving the merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent (the “Merger”);

WHEREAS, prior to entering into the Merger Agreement, Parent provided a written letter to the Company in accordance with the terms of Section 34 of the Rights Agreement stating that the effect of the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement would, if consummated, result in Parent becoming an Acquiring Person and requesting that the Board determine that each of the Purchaser Entities be deemed an Exempt Person under the Rights Agreement;

WHEREAS, prior to entering into the Merger Agreement, the Board deemed it to be advisable and in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders to determine that each of the Purchaser Entities is an “Exempt Person” subject to the condition that the Purchaser Entities’ acquisition of Common Shares is pursuant to the Merger Agreement;

WHEREAS, prior to entering into the Merger Agreement, the Board, in connection with approving the Merger, also affirmatively determined that each of the Purchaser Entities is an “Exempt Person” under the terms of the Rights Agreement, subject to the condition that the Purchaser Entities’ acquisition of Common Shares is pursuant to the Merger Agreement. The Board further resolved authorized officers of the Company to take such further actions necessary such that neither the execution and delivery of the Merger Agreement, nor the consummation of the Merger and the other transactions contemplated therein, will cause (a) the grant of any new rights under the Rights Agreement or (b) any rights previously granted under the Rights Agreement to become exercisable;

WHEREAS, Section 5.7 of the Merger Agreement requires the Company and the Board, as the case may be, to amend the Rights Agreement to (a) render it inapplicable to the Merger Agreement and the Merger and (b) provide that it shall have terminated immediately prior to the time when the Merger becomes effective under the Merger Agreement; and

WHEREAS, pursuant to the terms of the Rights Agreement, the Rights Agreement may expire on the Expiration Date, which is the earliest of the Final Expiration Date, which is September 21, 2019, or such earlier date as of which the Board determines that the Rights Agreement is no longer necessary for the preservation of Tax Benefits.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual agreements herein set forth, the parties hereby agree as follows:

SECTION 1. Amendment. The Rights Agreement is hereby amended as follows:

(a) A definition of “Merger Agreement” is hereby added to Section 1 as follows:

In the event of any conflict or inconsistency between the provisions of the Rights Agreement and the provisions of this Amendment, the provisions of this Amendment shall control.
