Acknowledgement. The
undersigned acknowledges that Camden Learning Corporation ("Camden") and Dlorah, Inc. ("Dlorah") are intending to complete a
proposed business combination pursuant to that certain Agreement and Plan
of Reorganization, dated August 7, 2009, as amended by the Amended and
Restated Agreement and Plan of Reorganization, dated August 11, 2009, as
further amended by Amendment No. 1 to the Amended and Restated Agreement
and Plan of Reorganization by and among Camden, Dlorah and Dlorah
Subsidiary Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Camden (collectively, the
“Merger Agreement”). In consideration of the
transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement and for other good and
valuable consideration (the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby
acknowledged by the undersigned), the undersigned covenants and agrees
with Camden as follows with respect to the shares of Camden Class A common
stock, common stock and warrants issued or issuable to the undersigned (or
to persons or entities with respect to which the undersigned would have
beneficial ownership of such shares within the rules and regulations of
the Securities and Exchange Commission) whether pursuant to the Merger
Agreement or otherwise and any other security of Dlorah or Camden that is
convertible into, or exercisable or exchangeable for, securities of Camden
(collectively, the “Camden Shares”).

Lock-Up. The undersigned
represents and warrants to Camden that, for the duration of the Lock-Up Period (as defined
below), the undersigned will not, directly or indirectly: (i) offer, sell,
contract to sell, pledge, lend, grant any option, right or warrant to
purchase, make any short sale or otherwise transfer or dispose of,
directly or indirectly, any Camden Shares, (ii) establish or increase any
“put equivalent position” or liquidate or decrease any “call equivalent
position” with respect to any Camden Shares (in each case within the
meaning of Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended,
and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder) or otherwise enter
into any swap, derivative or other transaction or arrangement that
transfers to another, in whole or in part, any economic consequence of
ownership of any Camden Shares, whether or not such transaction is to be
settled by delivery of Camden Shares, other securities, cash or other
consideration, or (iii) engage directly or indirectly in any transaction
the likely result of which would involve a transaction prohibited by
either of clauses (i) or (ii). The foregoing restriction is expressly
agreed to preclude the undersigned from engaging in any hedging or other
transaction which is designed to, or reasonably expected to lead to, or
result in, a sale or disposition of any Camden Shares even if such Camden
Shares would be disposed of by someone other than the undersigned. Such
prohibited hedging or other transactions would include without limitation
any short sale or any purchase, sale or grant of any right (including
without limitation any put or call option) with respect to any of the
Camden Shares or with respect to any security that includes, relates to,
or derives any significant part of its value from the Camden Shares. The
undersigned agrees and consents to the entry of stop transfer instructions
with Camden’s transfer agent and registrar against, and authorizes Camden
to cause the transfer agent and registrar to decline, the transfer of
relevant securities held by the undersigned except in compliance with the
foregoing restrictions.
|
Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the undersigned may sell, contract to sell, dispose of, or
otherwise transfer for value or otherwise, the Camden Shares by (i) gift, will
or intestacy, or (ii) distribution to partners, members, shareholders or
beneficiaries of the undersigned; provided however, that in the case of a
transfer pursuant to (i) or (ii) above, it shall be a condition to such transfer
that the transferee execute an agreement stating that the transferee is
receiving and holding the Camden Shares subject to the provisions of this Lock
Up Agreement.

Damages. The undersigned
recognizes and acknowledges that this agreement is an integral part of the

money damages. Therefore, the undersigned agrees that in the event of any
such breach, Camden shall be entitled to the remedy of specific
performance of such covenants or commitments and preliminary and permanent
injunctive and other equitable relief in addition to any other remedy to
which it may be entitled, at law or in equity, and the undersigned agrees

connection with the obtaining of any such injunctive or other equitable
relief.
