Related to Possible Rights Offering

• The Rights Offering (a) The Company proposes to undertake the Rights Offering pursuant to which each holder of Common Stock and each holder of warrants issued December 22, 2017, shall receive one Right for each share of Common Stock held of record at the close of business on May 9, 2018 (the “Record Date”). Holders of Rights will be entitled to subscribe for and purchase, at the Subscription Price, one (1) Rights Share and 284 Rights Warrants for each Right held (the “Basic Subscription Right”). Rights may only be exercised for whole Right Shares and Rights Warrants; no fractional securities will be issued in the Rights Offering. (b) The Rights will not trade or be listed for quotation on any exchange or service, and shall be non-transferable. (c) Any holder of Rights who fully exercises all Basic Subscription Rights issued to such holder is entitled to subscribe for Units which were not otherwise subscribed for by others pursuant to their Basic Subscription Rights (the “Over-Subscription Right”). The Over-Subscription Right shall allow a holder of a Right to subscribe for an additional amount of Units above the amount which such holder was otherwise entitled to subscribe. Units acquired pursuant to the Over-Subscription Right are subject to allotment, as more fully discussed in the Prospectus (as defined herein). (d) The Rights will expire at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on May 24, 2018 (the “Expiration Date”). The Company shall have the right to extend the Expiration Date in its sole discretion. Any Rights not exercised on or before the Expiration Date will expire worthless without any payment to the holders of unexercised Rights. (e) All funds from the exercise of Basic Subscription Rights and Over-Subscription Rights will be deposited with Broadridge Corporate Issuer Solutions, Inc. (“Broadridge”), as subscription agent (in this context, the “Subscription Agent”), and held in a segregated account with the Subscription Agent pending a final determination of the number of Rights Shares and Rights Warrants to be issued pursuant to the exercise of Basic Subscription Rights and Over-Subscription Rights. The Company may conduct a closing of the Rights Offering (a “Closing”) at its sole discretion at any time following the Expiration Date.

• Subsequent Rights Offerings In addition to any adjustments pursuant to Section 3(a) above, if at any time the Company grants, issues or sells any Common Stock Equivalents or rights to purchase stock, warrants, securities or other property pro rata to the record holders of any class of shares of Common Stock (the “Purchase Rights”), then the Holder will be entitled to acquire, upon the terms applicable to such Purchase Rights, the aggregate Purchase Rights which the Holder could have acquired if the Holder had held the number of shares of Common Stock acquirable upon complete exercise of this Warrant (without regard to any limitations on exercise hereof, including without limitation, the Beneficial Ownership Limitation) immediately before the date on which a record is taken for the grant, issuance or sale of such Purchase Rights, or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of shares of Common Stock are to be determined for the grant, issue or sale of such Purchase Rights (provided, however, to the extent that the Holder’s right to participate in any such Purchase Right would result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, then the Holder shall not be entitled to participate in such Purchase Right to such extent (or beneficial ownership of such shares of Common Stock as a result of such Purchase Right to such extent) and such Purchase Right to such extent shall be held in abeyance for the Holder until such time, if ever, as its right thereto would not result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation).

• Dilutive Rights Offering In case the Company shall fix a record date for the issuance of rights, options or warrants to all holders of Series A Preferred entitling them (for a period expiring within forty-five (45) calendar days after such record date) to subscribe for or purchase Series A Preferred (or securities having the same rights, privileges and preferences as the Series A Preferred (“equivalent preferred stock”)) or securities convertible into Series A Preferred or equivalent preferred stock at a price per share of Series A Preferred or per share of equivalent preferred stock (or having a conversion or exercise price per share, if a security convertible into or exercisable for Series A Preferred or equivalent preferred stock) less than the then current per share market price of the Series A Preferred (as determined pursuant to Section 11.4) on such record date, the Purchase Price to be in effect after such record date shall be determined by multiplying the Purchase Price in effect immediately prior to such record date by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Series A Preferred and shares of equivalent preferred stock outstanding on such record date plus the number of shares of Series A Preferred and shares of equivalent preferred stock which the aggregate offering price of the total number of shares of Series A Preferred and/or shares of equivalent preferred stock to be offered (and/or the aggregate initial conversion price of the convertible securities so to be offered) would purchase at such current per share market price and the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Series A Preferred and shares of equivalent preferred stock outstanding on such record date plus the number of additional Series A Preferred and/or shares of equivalent preferred stock to be offered for subscription or purchase (or into which the convertible securities so to be offered are initially convertible); provided, however, that in no event shall the consideration to be paid upon the exercise of one Right be less than the aggregate par value of the shares of capital stock of the Company issuable upon exercise of one Right. In case such subscription price may be paid in a consideration part or all of which shall be in a form other than cash, the value of such consideration shall be as determined in good faith by the Board, whose determination shall be described in a statement filed with the Rights Agent and shall be binding on the Rights Agent and the holders of the Rights. Series A Preferred and shares of equivalent preferred stock owned by or held for the account of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company shall not be deemed outstanding for the purpose of any such computation. Such adjustments shall be made successively whenever such a record date is fixed; and in the event that such rights or warrants are not so issued, the Purchase Price shall be adjusted to be the Purchase Price which would then be in effect if such record date had not been fixed.

• Rights Offering (a) The Company shall make the Rights Offering pursuant to the Plan, which shall be subject to the Offering Conditions and such other terms and conditions set forth in the Rights Offering Documents. (b) Ten Business Days prior to the date of the Confirmation Hearing, the Company shall notify the Preferred Backstop Investors of the Rights Offering and the Preferred Backstop Investors shall have the right, but not obligation, upon written notice to the Company to elect to purchase up to 50% of the Preferred Stock issued in the Rights Offering (in addition to each of their rights as a Holder pursuant to the Rights Offering Documents) on the same terms and conditions as the other Holders under the Rights Offering Documents; provided, however, that the Preferred Backstop Investors shall not be required to post funds until the Effective Date. Each Preferred Backstop Investor shall have the right to purchase its pro rata share of such amount, based on its Backstop Percentage and to the extent any Preferred Backstop Investor elects to not purchase its pro rata share, such share(s) shall be made available to the Preferred Backstop Investors that are purchasing their pro rata share. (c) The Company hereby agrees and undertakes to give, or to cause to be given, to the Preferred Backstop Investors as soon as reasonably practicable, but in no event later than two (2) Business Days, after the entry of the Confirmation Order, by overnight mail, e-mail or by electronic facsimile transmission, (i) written notification setting forth (A) the total number of shares of Preferred Stock purchased by Holders (inclusive of any shares of Preferred Stock purchased pursuant to Section 2.1(b)) in the Rights Offering pursuant to the exercise of Rights and the aggregate cash proceeds received by the Company therefor, (B) the number of Unsubscribed Shares, (C) the Backstop Purchase Price for each Preferred Backstop Investor and (D) the targeted Effective Date and (ii) a subscription form to be completed by each Preferred Backstop Investor to facilitate such Preferred Backstop Investor’s subscription for the Preferred Stock purchased pursuant to this Agreement. In addition, on the first Business Day of each calendar week during the period beginning on the Subscription Commencement Date and ending on the Subscription Expiration Date, the Company shall give, or cause to be given, to the Preferred Backstop Investors by overnight mail, e-mail or by electronic facsimile transmission a written notification setting forth the then most current information as to the total amount of Preferred Stock then subscribed for in the Rights Offering, the number of then unsubscribed Preferred Stock, the Backstop Purchase Price for each Preferred Backstop Investor (as if the Rights Offering were to be concluded with the then current amount of subscribed for Preferred Stock) and the targeted Effective Date.

• Rights Offerings In case the Company shall, at any time after the Date of Grant, issue rights, options or warrants to the holders of equity securities of the Company, entitling them to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock (or securities convertible or exchangeable into Common Stock) at a price per share of Common Stock (or having a conversion or exchange price per share of Common Stock if a security convertible or exchangeable into Common Stock) less than the fair market value per share of Common Stock on the record date for such issuance (or the date of issuance, if there is no record date), the Warrant Price to be in effect on and after such record date (or issuance date, as the case may be) shall be determined by multiplying the Warrant Price in effect immediately prior to such record date (or issuance date, as the case may be) by a fraction (i) the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on such record date (or issuance date, as the case may be) plus the number of shares of Common Stock which the aggregate offering price of the total number of shares of such Common Stock so to be offered (or the aggregate initial exchange or conversion price of the exchangeable or convertible securities so to be offered) would purchase at such fair market value on such record date (or issuance date, as the case may be) and (ii) the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on such record date (or issuance date, as the case may be) plus the number of additional shares of Common Stock to be offered for subscription or purchase (or into which the convertible securities to be offered are initially exchangeable or convertible). In case such purchase or subscription price may be paid in part or in whole in a form other than cash, the fair value of such consideration shall be determined by the Board of Directors of the Company in good faith as set forth in a duly adopted board resolution certified by the Company's Secretary or Assistant Secretary. Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever such an issuance occurs; and in the event that such rights, options, warrants, or convertible or exchangeable securities are not so issued or expire or cease to be convertible or exchangeable before they are exercised, converted, or exchanged (as the case may be), then the Warrant Price shall again be adjusted to be the Warrant Price that would then be in effect if such issuance had not occurred, provided however, the Company shall adjust the number of Warrant Shares issued upon any exercise of this Warrant after the adjustment required pursuant to this Section 4(f) but prior to the date such subsequent adjustment is made, in order to equitably reflect the fact that such rights, options, warrants, or convertible or exchangeable securities were not so issued or expired or ceased to be convertible or exchangeable before they were exercised, converted, or exchanged (as the case may be).

• Co-Sale Rights (a) In the event any Member (for purposes of this Section 11.15, the “Selling Member”) proposes to Transfer all or any portion of its Units (for purposes of this Section 11.15, the “Co-Sale Units”) other than pursuant to a Permitted Transfer, the Selling Member shall deliver a written notice (the “Co-Sale Notice”) to each other Member (each, a “Co-Sale Offeree”) at least thirty (30) days prior to making such Transfer describing the general terms and conditions of the proposed Transfer, including the purchase price for the Co-Sale Units, the proposed purchaser(s), the closing date for the sale and the portion of the Selling Member’s Units to be Transferred (the “Co-Sale Participation Percentage”). Each Co-Sale Offeree may elect to participate in the contemplated Transfer at the same price and on the same terms and conditions by delivering written notice to the Selling Member within fifteen (15) days after delivery of the Co-Sale Notice, which notice shall specify the percentage of its Units that such Co-Sale Offeree desires to include in such proposed Transfer, provided that such percentage shall not exceed the Co-Sale Participation Percentage. If a Co-Sale Offeree does not give such notice prior to the expiration of the fifteen (15)-day period for giving such notice, then the Selling Member may Transfer the Co-Sale Units to any Person on terms and conditions that are no more favorable to the Selling Member than those set forth in the Co-Sale Notice at any time within ninety (90) days after expiration of such fifteen (15)-day period for giving notice (provided, that if any governmental or other third party approval is required with respect to such Transfer, then such period shall be extended until a reasonable time after such approvals are obtained). Any Co-Sale Units not Transferred by the Selling Member during such ninety (90)-day period (as such period may be extended pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence) shall again be subject to the provisions of this Section 11.15 prior to any subsequent Transfer. (b) To the extent that one or more Co-Sale Offerees exercises its right of participation pursuant to Section 11.15(a), then, at the Selling Member’s option, either the percentage of Units that the Selling Member and each other participating Co-Sale Offeree may sell in the transaction shall be reduced below the applicable Co-Sale Participation Percentage to a percentage equal to the Selling Member’s or the participating Co-Sale Offeree’s (as applicable) pro rata percentage of the total Units proposed to be sold in the Transfer, or the aggregate Units to be sold in the transaction shall be increased to accommodate the Units of those participating Co-Sale Offerees pursuant to this Section 11.15. (c) The Selling Member shall not Transfer any Co-Sale Units to any prospective transferee if such prospective transferee declines to purchase Units from participating Co-Sale Offerees, unless the Selling Member acquires from each such participating Co-Sale Offeree (on the terms set forth in the Co-Sale Notice) its pro rata percentage of the total Units proposed to be sold in the Transfer (or, if less, the percentage of its Units that such Co-Sale Offeree requested to Transfer to such transferee) on the same price, terms and conditions as would be applicable in a direct sale of such Units to the proposed transferee. The Selling Member will endeavor to facilitate the purchase by any prospective transferee of Units held by a Co-Sale Offeree which are not eligible for co-sale pursuant to this Section 11.15 if and to the extent such Co-Sale Offeree wishes to include such interests in the Transfer, but neither the Selling Member nor any other Person shall be liable if the prospective transferee declines to do so.

• Default Not Exceeding 10% of Firm Securities or Option Securities If any Underwriter or Underwriters shall default in its or their obligations to purchase the Firm Securities or the Option Securities, if the Over-allotment Option is exercised hereunder, and if the number of the Firm Securities or Option Securities with respect to which such default relates does not exceed in the aggregate 10% of the number of Firm Securities or Option Securities that all Underwriters have agreed to purchase hereunder, then such Firm Securities or Option Securities to which the default relates shall be purchased by the non-defaulting Underwriters in proportion to their respective commitments hereunder.

• Co-Sale Right 3.1 An Offeror may not sell any of the Offered Shares until each of the Investors shall have been given the right (a “Co-Sale Right”), exercisable by Notice delivered to the Company and the Offeror within twenty (20) days from the date of the Company Notice, to sell to the proposed purchaser or purchasers (including, as applicable, the Company and any Electing Investors), upon the same terms and conditions offered by the Offeror, a number of shares up to the Investor’s Co-Sale Pro Rata Share of the Offered Shares (the “Co-Sale Shares”). 3.2 Any Investor who fails to notify the Company and Offeror within twenty (20) days after the Sale Notice of the exercise of the Investor’s Co-Sale Right (or who has exercised purchase rights under Section 2), shall have thereby waived Co-Sale Rights with respect to the Offered Shares. 3.3 If any Investor has made a timely exercise of a Co-Sale Right, to the extent that any prospective purchaser or purchasers prohibits such assignment or otherwise refuses to purchase shares or other securities from an Investor exercising its rights of co-sale hereunder (a “Co-Selling Investor”), the Offeror shall not sell to such prospective purchaser or purchasers any Shares unless and until, simultaneously with such sale, the Offeror purchases such Co-Sale Shares from such Co-Selling Investor for the same consideration and on the same terms and conditions as the proposed transfer described in the Sale Notice. 3.4 Each Co-Selling Investor shall, promptly after exercising a Co-Sale Right, deliver to the Offeror for transfer to the prospective purchaser or purchasers one or more certificates, properly endorsed for transfer, evidencing the Co-Sale Shares, Series A-1 Shares convertible into Co-Sale Shares or any combination of the two (and, if the Offered Shares included Series A Shares, the number of Series A Shares comprising Co-Sale Shares). If a prospective purchaser objects to the delivery of preferred stock in lieu of Common Stock, any Co-Selling Investor shall convert the Series A-1 Shares into Common Stock and deliver Common Stock as provided above. The Company agrees to make any such conversion concurrent with the actual sale of such shares to the proposed purchaser. Series A Shares may not be delivered to exercise a Co-Sale Right with respect to offered Common Stock or offered Series A-1 Shares. 3.5 If the Investors have not elected to purchase all of the Available Shares pursuant to Section 2, the Offeror may, during the 60-day period following the Settlement Date, offer the remaining unsold portion of the Available Shares (as reduced by any exercised Co-Sale Rights, the “Salable Shares”), along with any Co-Sale Shares, on terms and conditions (other than the time permitted to close the purchase) no more favorable to the Offeree than those specified in the Sale Notice, to the purchaser or purchasers identified in the Sale Notice. If the Offeror does not enter into an agreement for the sale of any of the Salable Shares and Co-Sale Shares within such period, or if such agreement is not consummated within thirty (30) days of its execution, the right provided under Sections 2 and 3 shall be revived as to the unsold Offered Shares, which shall not be sold unless first reoffered to the Company and the Investors in accordance with Sections 2 and 3. Any partial sale of Shares made pursuant to this Section 3.5 shall be allocated on a pro rata basis among Salable Shares and Co-Sale Shares. 3.6 On consummation of the sale of the Offered Shares and Co-Sale Shares, the Offeror shall transfer to the purchaser the stock certificate or certificates that the Investor has delivered to the Offeror pursuant to Section 3.4. The Offeror shall, upon receipt, remit to the Co-Selling Investor that portion of the sale proceeds to which such Investor is entitled by reason of its participation in such sale. To the extent that any prospective purchaser or purchasers prohibit such assignment or otherwise refuse to purchase shares or other securities from a Co-Selling Investor, the Offeror shall not sell any Offered Shares to the prospective purchaser unless, simultaneously with such sale, the Offeror purchases the Co-Sale Shares from such Investor.

• Recall Rights Teachers whose contracts have been suspended or non-renewed because of a reduction in force shall be so notified in writing and shall have rights to recall as follows: 1. Recall rights shall be limited to the twenty-four (24) months period commencing on the day following the employee's last day of work. 2. Teachers whose contracts were non-renewed or suspended shall be recalled to a vacancy in the inverse order of non-renewal or suspension as positions become available in their area of certification/licensure at the time of recall; provided however, that certificated tutors whose contracts were non-renewed or suspended shall be recalled only to certificated tutor vacancies, and then in the inverse order of non-renewal of suspension as such positions become available in their area of certification/licensure at the time of recall; and further provided however, seniority shall not be the basis for recalling a teacher, except when making a decision between teachers who have comparable evaluations. Teachers must notify the District of any changes in their area of certification/licensure. 3. A teacher notified of recall to a position may turn down the first offered position, allowing the Superintendent to offer said position to the next person on the recall list who is qualified to fill said position. The person making the turndown would retain his/her position on the recall list. If a teacher refuses recall to another position, said teacher's name shall be removed from the recall list; except no teacher shall be removed from the recall list for refusing a lesser position (time or pay) than the one from which he/she was reduced. Provided however, no teacher whose continuing contract has been suspended shall lose the right of recall and restoration to continuing service status by reason of having declined recall to a position that is less than full-time or, if the teacher was not employed full-time just prior to suspension of the teacher's continuing contract, to a position requiring a lesser percentage of full-time employment than the position the teacher last held while employed in the district. 4. Teachers on recall status shall have the responsibility for keeping the Superintendent informed of their current address, name change, and telephone number. Notification of recall shall be by certified mail at the teacher's last known address. Failure to contact the Superintendent to accept such recall within ten (10) calendar days of the date of such mailing shall remove the teacher from recall status. 5. Teachers, who during recall receive additional training or additional areas of certification/licensure, shall provide documentation of such to the Board, who shall upgrade the teacher’s status on the Recall List. No new employees shall be hired to fill a vacancy until teachers on the Recall List have been asked to fill the vacancy.

• Exercise of Rights; Tender Offers Upon receipt of Proper Instructions, the Custodian shall: (a) deliver warrants, puts, calls, rights or similar securities to the issuer or trustee thereof, or to the agent of such issuer or trustee, for the purpose of exercise or sale, provided that the new securities, cash or other assets, if any, acquired as a result of such actions are to be delivered to the Custodian; and (b) deposit securities upon invitations for tenders thereof, provided that the consideration for such securities is to be paid or delivered to the Custodian, or the tendered securities are to be returned to the Custodian. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the Custodian shall take all necessary action, unless otherwise directed to the contrary in Proper Instructions, to comply with the terms of all mandatory or compulsory exchanges, calls, tenders, redemptions, or similar rights of security ownership, and shall promptly notify each applicable Fund of such action in writing by facsimile transmission or in such other manner as such Fund and the Custodian may agree in writing.
