</DIV>


<DIV align="justify" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt">As of June&nbsp;30, 2010, the Company had unrestricted cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities
of $43.4&nbsp;million compared to $63.1&nbsp;million as of December&nbsp;31, 2009 and restricted cash, cash
equivalents and investments at June&nbsp;30, 2010 and December&nbsp;31, 2009 of $30.7&nbsp;million and $3.2
million, respectively. The significant increase in the restricted cash amount between December&nbsp;31,
2009 and June&nbsp;30, 2010 is the result of the Company transitioning online and professional studies
students into a borrower-based academic year (&#147;BBAY&#148;) system starting in April&nbsp;2010. Financial aid
for these students previously was processed on a semester basis in which disbursements for the
semester were typically received in the first couple of weeks of the semester. The Company
classifies all financial aid received for courses that have not yet started as restricted cash.
</DIV>

<DIV align="justify" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt">The Company generated $30.1&nbsp;million in cash from operating activities in the six months ended June
30, 2010 compared to $27.0&nbsp;million in the same period of 2009. Cash used in investing activities
was $49.3&nbsp;million and $47.7&nbsp;million for the six months ended June&nbsp;30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.
Cash used in investing activities in 2010 is primarily due to an increase in restricted cash during
the second quarter of 2010 as a result of our transition from a term-based financial aid system to
BBAY in April&nbsp;2010. Other capital expenditures were $22.4&nbsp;million and $11.1&nbsp;million for the six
months ended June&nbsp;30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. In the first six months of 2010, capital
expenditures primarily consisted of purchases of computer equipment, and software costs to complete
our transition from Datatel to CampusVue and Great Plains, other internal use software projects,
furniture and equipment to support our increasing employee base and headcount and ground campus
building projects such as a new dorm and recreational center to support our increasing traditional
ground student enrollment. In 2009, cash used in investing activities was primarily the result of
our
acquisition on April&nbsp;28, 2009 of the land and buildings that comprise our ground campus for $35.5
million, in addition to the $11.1&nbsp;million of capital expenditures which primarily consisted of
purchases of computer equipment, leasehold improvements, and office furniture and fixtures to
support our increasing employee headcounts. Cash used in financing activities was nil for the six
months ended June&nbsp;30, 2010 as compared to cash provided by financing activities of $10.3&nbsp;million
for the six months ended June&nbsp;30, 2009. During the first six months of 2010 principal payments on
notes payable and capital lease obligations were offset by proceeds from the exercise of stock
options and the excess tax benefits from share-based compensation. During the first six months of
2009, the proceeds from the loan agreement were partially offset by the repurchase of our shares.

other administrative sanctions resulting therefrom; the ability of our students to obtain federal
Title IV funds, state financial aid, and private financing; any damage to our reputation or other
adverse effects we may experience as a result of negative publicity in the media, in industry or in
connection with governmental reports or investigations, or otherwise, affecting us or other
companies in the for-profit postsecondary education sector; risks associated with changes in
applicable federal and state laws and regulations and accrediting commission standards; our ability

</DIV>


<DIV align="justify" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt">Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income plus interest expense net of interest income, plus income
tax expense, and plus depreciation and amortization (EBITDA), as adjusted for (i)&nbsp;the amortization
of prepaid royalty payments recorded in conjunction with a settlement of a dispute with our former
owner; (ii)&nbsp;contributions made to Arizona school tuition organizations in lieu of the payment of
state income taxes, which we typically make in the fourth quarter of a fiscal year; (iii)&nbsp;estimated
litigation losses, if any; (iv)&nbsp;exit costs; (v)&nbsp;and share-based compensation. All of the
adjustments made in our calculation of Adjusted EBITDA are adjustments to items that management
does not consider to be reflective of our core operating performance. Management considers our core
operating performance to be that which can be affected by our managers in any particular period
through their management of the resources that affect our underlying revenue and profit generating
operations during that period. Although we believe that equity-plan related compensation will be a
key element of our employee relations and long-term incentives, we intend to exclude it as an
expense when evaluating our core operating performance in any particular period. Accordingly, we
have included share-based compensation expenses, along with royalty expenses to our former owner,
and any other expenses and income that we do not consider reflective of our core operating
performance, as an adjustment when calculating Adjusted EBITDA.
