16

Series A-1 Preferred Stock, the Series A-1 Dividend Rate times the Issue Amount Per Share (compounded as provided in the definition for Series A-1 Dividend Rate, including with respect to any accrued and unpaid dividends) per each such share of Series A-1 Preferred Stock and, in the case of each share of Series A-2 Preferred Stock, in an amount equal to the Series A-2 Dividend Rate times Issue Amount Per Share (compounded as provided in the definition for the Series A-2 Dividend Rate, including with respect to any accrued and unpaid dividends) (for the avoidance of doubt, as may be adjusted in accordance with Section 5(a)(2) hereof) per each such share of Series A-2 Preferred Stock (such per share amount, as applicable, the “Dividend Amount”) during each three month period following the applicable Issue Date.

(1) Solely with respect to the Series A-1 Preferred Stock, the Dividend Amount shall be automatically declared and the applicable Dividend Amount automatically paid to the Holder thereof in kind in PIK Dividend Shares on the Dividend Payment Date. For the avoidance of doubt, unless otherwise expressly set forth in this Agreement, with respect to PIK Dividend Shares, the Dividend Payment Date of such shares shall be the Issue Date of such shares for all purposes hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, at the option of the Corporation, the Corporation may pay all or a portion of any Dividend Amount in cash pro rata among the Holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock based on each Holder’s relative Dividend Amount by the Board of Directors declaring a cash dividend on or before the applicable Dividend Payment Date. All Dividend Amounts payable with respect to the Holders of Series A-1 Preferred Stock shall be paid, whether in cash or in PIK Dividend Shares pursuant to this Section 5(a)(1), pro rata to each Holder of shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock based upon the aggregate accrued but unpaid dividends on the shares held by each such Holder.

Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Corporation shall take all actions necessary for all PIK Dividend Shares to be duly authorized and validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, and issued free and clear of all liens, mortgages, security interests, pledges, deposits, restrictions or other encumbrances, other than as set forth herein or in the Stockholders Agreement, on each Dividend Payment Date. The Corporation shall update its books and records to reflect the issuance of any PIK Dividend Shares promptly following each Dividend Payment Date, and at the request of any Holder of shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock, shall deliver to such Holder a copy of such books and records reflecting the issuance of such PIK Dividend Shares; provided, however, that the failure of the Corporation to comply with the terms of this sentence shall not in any way affect the issuance of such PIK Dividend Shares in accordance with the terms hereof.

(2) Holders of Series A-2 Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive, when, as and if declared by the Board of Directors or a duly authorized committee of the Board of Directors, out of funds legally available for the payment of dividends under Delaware law, the Dividend Amount, in cash, on each Dividend Payment Date. On each Dividend Payment Date, solely with respect to the Series A-2 Preferred Stock, any Dividend Amount that is not declared and paid in cash to the Holder thereof shall be automatically added to the applicable Issue Amount Per Share in accordance with the definition thereof and shall accrue dividends thereafter in accordance with this Section 5. All such Dividend Amounts, if not paid in cash, shall be so added to the applicable Issue Amount Per Share, pursuant to this Section 5(a)(2), pro rata to each Holder of shares of Series A-2 Preferred Stock based upon the number of such shares held by each such Holder.

17

(3) To the extent that the declaration or payment of any PIK Dividend is not permitted under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, the portion of the Dividend Amount corresponding to such undeclared or unpaid PIK Dividends shall be added to the applicable Issue Amount Per Share and the failure to declare or pay any such dividend shall not negate or impair the right of such Holders to such dividend.

The Corporation shall not declare, pay or set aside any dividends (other than stock dividends to Junior Securities that are subordinated in all respects to the dividends payable to shares of Series A Preferred Stock pursuant hereto) on shares of any other class or series of capital stock of the Corporation (other than the Series A Preferred Stock) while any shares of Series A Preferred Stock remain outstanding. Dividends payable on the Series A Preferred Stock shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months and shall be deemed to accumulate on a daily basis.

(b) Holders of the Series A Preferred Stock shall not be entitled to any dividends, whether payable in cash, property or stock, in excess of the full cumulative dividends as herein described; provided, however, that the Corporation may pay any additional dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock out of legally available funds, when, as and if declared by the Board of Directors.

(c) In the case of shares of Series A Preferred Stock issued on the Issue Date, dividends shall accrue and be cumulative from the Issue Date. In the case of PIK Dividend Shares, dividends shall accrue and be cumulative from the Dividend Payment Date in respect of which such shares were issued or were scheduled to be paid pursuant to Section 5(a) hereof as a PIK Dividend. In the case of any amounts of accrued but unpaid dividends, including those that are added to the Issue Amount Per Share in respect of the Series A-2 Preferred Stock on each Dividend Payment Date pursuant to Section 5(a)(2) of this Agreement, dividends shall accrue on such amounts and be cumulative from the applicable Dividend Payment Date in respect of which such amounts were scheduled to be paid pursuant to Section 5(a) hereof.

(d) Each fractional share of Series A Preferred Stock outstanding (or treated as outstanding pursuant to Section 5 hereof) shall be entitled to a ratably proportionate amount of all Dividend Amount accruing with respect to each outstanding or due to be issued and outstanding share of Series A Preferred Stock pursuant to Section 5(a), and such Dividend Amount with respect to such outstanding fractional shares shall be cumulative and shall accrue (whether or not declared), and shall be payable in the same manner and at such times as provided for in Section 5(a) with respect to dividends on each outstanding or due to be issued and outstanding share of Series A Preferred Stock. Each fractional share of Series A Preferred Stock outstanding shall also be entitled to a ratably proportionate amount of any other distributions made with respect to each outstanding or due to be issued and outstanding share of Series A Preferred Stock, and all such distributions shall be payable in the same manner and at the same time as distributions on each outstanding or due to be issued and outstanding share of Series A Preferred Stock.

(e) If a Conversion Date with respect to any share of Series A Preferred Stock is on or prior to a Dividend Payment Date for a dividend or distribution on the Series A Preferred Stock pursuant to Section 5(a), then the Holder of such share of Series A Preferred Stock shall have the right to receive a pro rata portion of such Dividend Amount that would otherwise be payable on

18

such share on the next subsequent Dividend Payment Date, to be calculated as such Dividend Amount (i) multiplied by the number of days between the most recent Dividend Payment Date and such Conversion Date and (ii) divided by the number of days between the most recent Dividend Payment Date and the next subsequent Dividend Payment Date. Payment of such Dividend Amounts shall be satisfied through the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon conversion except to the extent that the Corporation may satisfy any fractional shares through payment of cash pursuant to the terms of this Certificate of Designations.

Section 6. Liquidation Rights.

(a) Voluntary or Involuntary Liquidation. In the event of any liquidation, bankruptcy, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Corporation, whether voluntary or involuntary, or an Exit Event, then, on a pari passu basis:

(1) Holders of Series A-1 Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive in full, out of the assets of the Corporation or proceeds thereof (whether capital or surplus) available for distribution to stockholders of the Corporation, and after satisfaction of all liabilities and obligations to creditors of the Corporation, before any distribution of such assets and/or proceeds is made to or set aside for the holders of any other Junior Securities, an amount per share of Series A-1 Preferred Stock equal to the Series A-1 Liquidation Preference; and

(2) Holders of Series A-2 Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive in full, out of the assets of the Corporation or proceeds thereof (whether capital or surplus) available for distribution to stockholders of the Corporation, and after satisfaction of all liabilities and obligations to creditors of the Corporation, before any distribution of such assets and/or proceeds is made to or set aside for the holders of any other Junior Securities, an amount per share of Series A-2 Preferred Stock equal to the Series A-2 Liquidation Preference.

(b) Partial Payment. If in any distribution described in Section 6(a) above, the assets of the Corporation and/or proceeds thereof are not sufficient to pay the Liquidation Preference in full to all Holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock, the Holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive their pro rata portion of such assets and/or proceeds in accordance with their respective rights to the Liquidation Preference under Section 6(a), with each such Holder being entitled to receive a pro rata portion of such amount based on such Holder’s relative aggregate Liquidation Preference then outstanding.

(c) Residual Distributions. If the Liquidation Preference has been paid in full to all Holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock, the holders of shares of Junior Securities (for the avoidance of doubt, including the Common Stock into which any shares of Series A Preferred Stock have been previously converted), shall be entitled to receive all remaining assets of the Corporation (or proceeds thereof) according to their respective rights and preferences. Any amount payable in respect of Common Stock issued upon the conversion of shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock shall be paid on a pari passu basis with any payments in respect of shares of Series A-2 Preferred Stock pursuant to Section 6(a)(2) and Section 6(b).

(d) Exit Event. For purposes of this Section 6, the Liquidation Preference payable in connection with an Exit Event shall, in consideration for the cancellation of the shares of Series A

19

Preferred Stock, be paid in cash; provided, however, if the Exit Event is the result of a Sale of the Corporation and the consideration received by the holders of common stock of the Corporation in connection with such Exit Event consists of or includes equity securities in a publicly traded corporation with (i) a market capitalization of at least $5,000,000,000 and (ii) a public float of at least $2,000,000,000, in each case on a pro forma, post-transaction basis, the Holders agree that receipt of their pro rata portion of such equity securities (plus any related cash payments) shall satisfy in full the Corporation’s payment obligations under this Section 6.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if the Mandatory Redemption Payment Date occurs subsequent to a Dividend Payment Date, the amount of accrued but unpaid dividends payable to the holder of Mandatory Redemption Shares shall include a pro rata portion of the Dividend Amount that would otherwise be payable on such shares on the next subsequent Dividend Payment Date, to be calculated as such Dividend Amount (i) multiplied by the number of days between the most recent Dividend Payment Date and Mandatory Redemption Payment Date (ii) divided by the number of days between the most recent Dividend Payment Date and the next subsequent Dividend Payment Date. The Mandatory Redemption Price to each Holder that exercises its redemption right pursuant to this Section 7(a) (each such Holder, the “Redemption Holder”) with respect to a share of Series A Preferred Stock shall be paid in immediately available funds on a date selected by the Corporation not later than thirty (30) days after the date of a Holder’s request for redemption pursuant to the terms hereof (such date, the “Mandatory Redemption Payment Date”) against surrender of the certificate(s) evidencing such shares, if any, to the Corporation or its agent; provided, however, that, if the Corporation is not permitted under the Delaware General Corporation Law governing distributions to stockholders or under the Debt Documents to redeem all of the Mandatory Redemption Shares on the Mandatory Redemption Payment Date, then the Mandatory Redemption Price shall continue to be due by the Corporation in accordance with this Section 7(a)(1) and the Corporation shall redeem the maximum number of such Mandatory Redemption Shares that it may redeem consistent with such law or Debt Documents (pro rata based on the respective amounts which would otherwise be payable in respect of all the Mandatory Redemption Shares), and shall redeem the remaining Mandatory Redemption Shares as soon as it may lawfully do so under such law or Debt Documents.

(3) If, after the Initial Sale Period, any Mandatory Redemption Shares remain outstanding, then, unless the Super Majority Requisite Holders determine otherwise:

(i) the Requisite Series A Preferred Holders may request in writing that the Continuing Directors of the Corporation (1) increase the size of the Board of Directors by a number of seats such that, after giving effect to such increase, the number of vacant seats in the Board of Directors plus the Investor Seats constitutes a majority of the Board of Directors sufficient to effect the transactions contemplated herein, (2) nominate, approve and appoint the individuals nominated by the Requisite Series A Preferred Holders to fill each vacancy created by such increase (it being understood that, after giving effect to such nomination and appointment, the aggregate number of directors so nominated and appointed shall constitute a majority of the Board of Directors sufficient to effect the transactions contemplated herein) and any successor to such individuals from time to time nominated by the Requisite Series A Preferred Holders (each such individual, an “Additional Investor Director” and, collectively, the “Additional Investor Directors”), and (3) remove any such Additional Investor Director from the Board of Directors;

(ii) if the Continuing Directors do not so nominate, approve and appoint each Additional Investor Director within five (5) Business Days after receipt of the request by the Requisite Series A Preferred Holders pursuant to clause (i) above, then automatically, and without any action on the part of any Person (and notwithstanding any terms of the By-laws to the contrary) the Requisite Series A Preferred Holders shall be entitled to (A) increase the size of the Board of Directors by a number of seats such that, after giving effect to such increase, the number of vacant seats in the Board of Directors plus the Investor Seats constitutes a majority of the Board of Directors sufficient to effect the transactions contemplated herein, (B) nominate and appoint the Additional Investor

22

payments received by the buyer in any Exit Event purchase price adjustments, indemnification or other obligations that the sellers of shares of capital stock, other equity interests or assets are required to provide in connection with the Forced Liquidity Transaction such that proceeds will be distributed as if they had been distributed after giving effect to such adjustments, escrows, holdbacks, indemnifications and other obligations, other than any such obligations that relate solely to a particular stockholder of the Corporation, such as indemnification with respect to representations and warranties given by such stockholder regarding such stockholder’s title to and ownership of securities, in respect of which only such stockholder will be liable; provided, however, that notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 7(a), neither Wengen nor the Wengen Investors shall be bound by any Forced Liquidity Transaction that would: (1) treat the Common Stock held directly or indirectly by Wengen or any Wengen Investor in a manner that is disproportionate to the Common Stock held by any other holder of Common Stock, including by imposing an escrow, clawback or other form of indemnification with respect to the Common Stock held directly or indirectly by Wengen or such Wengen Investor that is not imposed upon the Common Stock of any other holder of the Common Stock, (2) to the extent that Wengen or any Wengen are required to provide any indemnification with respect to breaches of representations and warranties by or on behalf of the Corporation or agreements by the Corporation or otherwise assume any other post-closing liabilities, including with respect to any post-closing adjustments of the purchase price, escrows, and holdbacks, in each case in connection with such Forced Liquidity Transaction, require Wengen or any Wengen Investor to jointly and severally participate in any such indemnification or post-closing liabilities or for any amounts in excess of the aggregate proceeds to be received, respectively, by Wengen or such Wengen Investor, as applicable, in connection with such Forced Liquidity Transaction, or (3) impose a non-compete on any Wengen Investor or its Affiliates.

breach of a covenant from the Holders in this Certificate of Designations; (iv) Wengen shall not be entitled to any dissenter’s rights, appraisal rights or similar rights under Section 262of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware or otherwise, and hereby irrevocably waives all related claims (including any claims for breach of fiduciary duty arising out of or related to any actions taken or omissions by the Wengen Proxy Holder (other than for taking an action or omitting to take an action in breach of a covenant in this Certificate of Designations) in connection with the Wengen Proxy Holder’s exercise of the proxy and power of attorney granted it pursuant to clause (i) of this Section 7(a)(4), as the case may be, including claims relating to the fairness of a Forced Liquidity Transaction, the amount, nature, form or terms of consideration paid for shares of capital stock of the Corporation in such Forced Liquidity Transaction even if such Forced Liquidity Transaction results in no consideration being paid or payable to any or all of the holders other than the Holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock, the process or timing of such Forced Liquidity Event or any similar claims); (v) Wengen hereby represents to the Holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock that no other irrevocable proxy in connection with its Common Stock has been granted prior to the date hereof, and agrees that any other proxies heretofore given by such holder of Common Stock (which, for the avoidance of doubt, does not include this proxy) are hereby revoked effective immediately; and (vi) Wengen hereby affirms that this irrevocable proxy is given in consideration for the mutual agreements contained in this Agreement and in connection with such Stockholder’s subscription for its Securities, and that this irrevocable proxy is coupled with an interest and may, under no circumstances, be revoked. The Corporation hereby acknowledges receipt of and the validity of the foregoing irrevocable proxy, and agrees to recognize the Wengen Proxy Holder as the sole attorney and proxy for each such holder at all times prior to the termination date of such irrevocable proxy as hereinafter provided in this Section 7(a)(4). Wengen acknowledges and agrees that the irrevocable proxy granted pursuant to this Section 7(a)(4) will remain in effect until the earlier of (x) redemption in full all of the shares of the Series A Preferred Stock in accordance with this Certificate of Designations and (y) twenty (20) years from the date hereof. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 7(a)(4) to the contrary, neither Wengen nor the Wengen Investors shall have any obligation to take action or cooperate with the Series A Preferred Stock in connection with, including voting in favor of, any Forced Liquidity Transaction that would: (A) treat the Common Stock held directly or indirectly by Wengen or any Wengen Investor in a manner that is disproportionate to the Common Stock held by any other holder of Common Stock, including by imposing an escrow, clawback or other form of indemnification with respect to the Common Stock held directly or indirectly by Wengen or such Wengen Investor that is not imposed upon the Common Stock of any other holder of the Common Stock, (B) to the extent that Wengen or any Wengen are required to provide any indemnification with respect to breaches of representations and warranties by or on behalf of the Corporation or agreements by the Corporation or otherwise assume any other post-closing liabilities, including with respect to any post-closing adjustments of the purchase price, escrows, and holdbacks, in each case in connection with such Forced Liquidity Transaction, require Wengen or any Wengen Investor to jointly and severally participate in any such indemnification or post-closing liabilities or for any amounts in excess of the aggregate proceeds to be received, respectively, by Wengen or such Wengen Investor, as applicable, in connection with such Forced Liquidity Transaction, or (C) impose a non-compete on any Wengen Investor or its Affiliates. The proxy granted by this Section 7(a)(4) shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Delaware without regard to principles of conflicts of law.

24

(b) Redemption by the Corporation. The Corporation, at its option, may redeem, in whole at any time or in part from time to time, the shares of the Series A Preferred Stock then outstanding (such shares, the “Corporation Redemption Shares”), upon notice given as provided in Section 7(e) below, indicating the effective date of such redemption (such date, the “Corporation Redemption Date”), at a cash redemption price per share of Series A Preferred Stock equal to the Preferred Return for such Corporation Redemption Share (the “Corporation Redemption Price”); provided, however, the Corporation may redeem shares of Series A Preferred Stock on or after a QPO solely if on the date notice of redemption is given the 30 Trading Day VWAP prior to such date is at or below 85% of the QPO Price. The Corporation Redemption Price shall be payable to the Holder of such shares on the Corporation Redemption Date against surrender of the certificate(s) evidencing such shares, if any, to the Corporation or its agent. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if the Corporation Redemption Date occurs subsequent to a Dividend Payment Date, the amount of accrued but unpaid dividends payable to the holder of such Corporation Redemption Shares shall include a pro rata portion of the Dividend Amount that would otherwise be payable on such shares on the next subsequent Dividend Payment Date, to be calculated as such Dividend Amount (i) multiplied by the number of days between the most recent Dividend Payment Date and the Corporation Redemption Date (ii) divided by the number of days between the most recent Dividend Payment Date and the next subsequent Dividend Payment Date.

(c) No Sinking Fund. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 7, the Series A Preferred Stock will not be subject to any mandatory redemption, sinking fund, retirement fund or purchase fund or other similar provisions.

(d) Partial Redemption. If, pursuant to Section 7(b) above, the Corporation elects to redeem fewer than all of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock, (i) such redemption of shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall be pro rata among the Holders of Series A Preferred Stock based upon each Holder’s relative aggregate Preferred Return then outstanding and (ii) the Corporation shall (A) cause the register of stockholders to be updated accordingly and (B) issue new certificates, if any, representing the unredeemed shares.

(e) Notice of Redemption by the Corporation. Notice of every redemption by the Corporation of shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall be mailed by first class mail, postage prepaid, addressed to the Holders of record of the shares to be redeemed at their respective last addresses appearing on the books of the Corporation or such other address as communicated in writing by any such Holders to the Corporation. Such mailing shall be at least thirty (30) days but not more than sixty (60) days before the date fixed for redemption. Any notice mailed as provided in this Subsection shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly given, whether or not the Holder receives such notice, but failure duly to give such notice by mail, or any defect in such notice or in the mailing thereof, to any Holder of shares of Series A Preferred Stock designated for redemption shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of any other shares of Series A Preferred Stock. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Series A Preferred Stock or any depositary shares representing interests in the Series A Preferred Stock are issued in book-entry form through The Depository Trust Company or any other similar facility, notice of redemption may be given to the holders of Series A Preferred Stock at such time and in any manner permitted by such facility. Each such notice given to a Holder shall state: (1) the redemption date; (2) the number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock to be redeemed and, if less than all the shares held by

25

such Holder are to be redeemed, the number of such shares to be redeemed from such Holder; (3) the redemption price; and (4) the place or places where certificates for such shares are to be surrendered for payment of the redemption price.

(f) Order of Redemption. All shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock to be redeemed in accordance with Section 7 shall be redeemed in the following order: (i) first, the PIK Dividend Shares (if any) shall be redeemed in reverse order of issuance (so that the PIK Dividend Shares issued most recently are redeemed first), and (ii) second, all other shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock shall be redeemed.

(g) Educational Approvals. To the extent that any Educational Law requires that the parties obtain an Educational Approval in order to consummate any of the transactions or actions set forth in Sections 7(a)(2) through (5), the Corporation shall obtain such Educational Approval and the Holders shall cooperate in good faith with the Corporation to obtain them. The process of determining which Educational Approvals may be required in connection with the transactions and events set forth in Sections 7(a)(2) through (5) shall be initiated at least nine (9) months before the fifth (5th) anniversary of the Issue Date, including applying for and seeking to obtain any such Education Approvals at least six (6) months prior to any contemplated change in the composition of the Board of Directors of the Company, any Forced Liquidation Event, exercise of any proxy, or any other event or series of transactions set forth under Section 7(a). To the extent that any Educational Law requires that the Corporation obtain Educational Approvals prior to consummating any of the transactions set forth in Sections 7(a)(2) through (5) and Section 7(b), the Corporation shall obtain such Educational Approvals and the Holders shall cooperate in good faith with the Corporation to obtain them prior to such transaction effective date. The Corporation shall incur any costs, fees and expenses reasonably required in connection with obtaining such Educational Approvals.

Section 8. Conversion.

(a) Generally.

(i) No Conversion. Except as set forth in this Certificate of Designations, prior to the earlier to occur of the closing of an Exit Event or a Wengen Exit Event, the shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall not be convertible into any other class or series of the Corporation’s capital stock.

(ii) Optional Conversion by Holders.

(A) Simultaneous with the closing of an Exit Event (such closing, an “Exit Event Closing,” and the date thereof, the “Exit Event Closing Date”), each Holder of shares of Series A Preferred Stock may irrevocably elect, by providing prior written notice to the Corporation, to convert all of its shares of Series A Preferred Stock into that number of shares of Common Stock (including fractional shares of Common Stock) equal to the aggregate Modified Liquidation Preference of all such shares of Series A Preferred Stock to be so converted (including, for the avoidance of doubt, with respect to the Series A-1 Preferred Stock, any PIK Dividend Shares and any accrued but unpaid dividends, and, with respect to the Series A-2 Preferred Stock, any accrued but unpaid dividends) divided

26

by the applicable Optional Conversion Price. The Corporation shall provide the Holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock prior written notice of an Exit Event, including the expected material terms thereof, at least thirty (30) days prior to the closing of such Exit Event.

(B) In connection with a Wengen Exit Event, the Corporation shall provide, or cause to be provided, notice of such prospective Wengen Exit Event to each Holder of the Series A Preferred Stock as soon as practicable after the Company is made aware of such Wengen Exit Event but prior to the execution and delivery by or on behalf of such Wengen Investor of a binding agreement concerning such prospective Wengen Exit Event (the “Wengen Exit Event Notice”). Within thirty (30) days following receipt of the Wengen Exit Event Notice (the “Conversion Election Period”), each Holder of shares of Series A Preferred Stock may irrevocably elect to convert all of its shares of Series A Preferred Stock pursuant to this clause (B) by notice to the Corporation (a “Holder Optional Conversion Notice”) effective as of and subject to the closing of such Wengen Exit Event (the “Holder Optional Conversion Effective Date”) and the number of shares that it intends to convert (such shares, the “Holder Optional Conversion Shares”). The Wengen Exit Event triggering such conversion may not be consummated until the expiration of the Conversion Election Period. Upon delivery of a Holder Optional Conversion Notice, the Holder Optional Conversion Shares shall be converted into a number of shares of Common Stock (including fractional shares of Common Stock) equal to the Modified Liquidation Preference of all such shares of Series A Preferred Stock to be so converted (including, for the avoidance of doubt, with respect to the Series A-1 Preferred Stock, any PIK Dividend Shares and any accrued but unpaid dividends, and, with respect to the Series A-2 Preferred Stock, any accrued but unpaid dividends) divided by the applicable Optional Conversion Price.

(C) In the event of an IPO, a QPO that closes on or prior to August 15, 2017 (an “Early QPO”), or a QPO that closes after August 15, 2017 (“Late QPO”), each Holder of shares of Series A Preferred Stock may irrevocably elect to convert all of its shares of Series A Preferred Stock as follows: (1) in the case of an IPO, an Early QPO or, solely in the event that no QPO Early Convertibility Notice is timely issued by the Corporation pursuant to Section 8(a)(iii)(B), a Late QPO, at any time commencing on the earlier to occur of (x) one (1) day following the first (1st) anniversary of the closing of such QPO or IPO (in each case, the “PO Conversion Outside Date”) and (y) the time immediately prior to the effectiveness of the Registration Statement filed in connection with the Initial Follow-on Public Offering (the “Follow-on Conversion Date”); and (2) in the case of a Late QPO for which a QPO Early Convertibility Notice is timely issued by the Corporation in accordance with Section 8(a)(iii)(B), at any time after the closing of such Late QPO; provided, however, that, upon a conversion pursuant to this clause (2) that occurs prior to the 180-day anniversary of the date of entry into the underwriting agreement with the underwriters for such QPO, each converting Holder hereby agrees not to effect any public sale or distribution of any of such Investor’s Common Stock (except as part of an Initial Follow-on Public Offering or other transaction permitted by Section 4 of the Registration Rights Agreement), including a sale pursuant to Rule 144 or any swap or other economic arrangement that transfers to another Person any of the economic consequences of owning shares of Common Stock or to give any demand notice other than

27

pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement (it being understood that this will not prevent the exercise of any applicable piggyback rights under the Registration Rights Agreement) in each case during the period (such period, the “Lock-up Period”) commencing on the Conversion Date pursuant to this clause (2) and continuing until the earlier of (A) the 180-day anniversary of the date of entry into the underwriting agreement with the underwriters of such QPO, (B) the effectiveness of an Initial Follow-on Public Offering, or (C) the date on which Wengen or any Wengen Investor is released from any similar lock-up restrictions to which such Person is bound. If a Holder of shares of Series A Preferred Stock elects to so convert, such Holder shall provide prior written notice to the Corporation and as soon as practicable thereafter, but in no event later than ten (10) days following the Corporation’s receipt of such notice, the Corporation shall deliver to such Holder the Conversion Supporting Certifications. Each share of Series A Preferred Stock elected to be converted pursuant to the foregoing shall be so converted into that number of shares of Common Stock (including fractional shares of Common Stock) equal to the Modified Liquidation Preference of all shares of Series A Preferred Stock to be so converted (including, for the avoidance of doubt, with respect to the Series A-1 Preferred Stock, any PIK Dividend Shares and any accrued but unpaid dividends, and, with respect to the Series A-2 Preferred Stock, any accrued but unpaid dividends) divided by the applicable Public Offering Conversion Price. Upon a conversion pursuant hereto, each Holder so converting shall have the registration rights that are granted to such Holder under the Registration Rights Agreement, in each case in accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein. The Corporation shall provide the Holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock prior written notice of a QPO or IPO, including the expected material terms thereof, not less than thirty (30) days prior to the closing of such QPO or IPO.

(D) For the avoidance of doubt, at any time when a conversion pursuant to this Section 8(a)(ii) may be effected by the Holders, the election of any Holder to convert or not to convert such Holder’s Series A Preferred Stock shall be independent of each other Holder’s election to convert or not to convert its Series A Preferred Stock pursuant to this Section 8(a)(ii).

(iii) Optional Conversion by Corporation.

(A) In the event of an IPO or an Early QPO, subject to the requirements of any applicable Educational Law, including obtaining any required Educational Approvals, the Corporation may irrevocably elect to convert all of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock on the earlier to occur of (x) the applicable PO Conversion Outside Date, and (y) the Follow-on Conversion Date, by prior written notice to the Holders. Such notice shall be accompanied by (x) a certificate executed by the Chief Executive Officer of the Corporation certifying that the proposed conversion, if and when effected, is and will not at the time of its closing result in a violation or breach of, or constitute a default or give rise to any right of termination, cancellation, modification or acceleration under or pursuant to any of the terms or conditions of the Certificate of Incorporation or the By-laws, or any contract, instrument or other arrangement, including the Debt Documents, to which the Corporation or any of its Key Subsidiaries is a party or by which the Corporation or any of its Key Subsidiaries may be bound, and (y) a written opinion of one or more law firms of

28

national standing as counsel to the Corporation in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Requisite Series A Preferred Holders opining that such conversion would not require any Education Approval by the U.S. Department of Education (the certificate and opinion under the foregoing clauses (x) and (y), collectively, the “Conversion Supporting Certifications”). Following the Corporation’s election to convert pursuant hereto and subject to delivery of the Conversion Supporting Certifications to the Holders, each share of Series A Preferred Stock shall be converted into a number of shares of Common Stock (including fractional shares of Common Stock, and, with respect to the Series A-2 Preferred Stock, any accrued but unpaid dividends, and with respect to the Series A-1 Preferred Stock, for the avoidance of doubt, any PIK Dividend Shares and any accrued but unpaid dividends) equal to the Modified Liquidation Preference of all shares of Series A Preferred Stock to be so converted (including, with respect to the Series A-2 Preferred Stock, any accrued but unpaid dividends, and with respect to the Series A-1 Preferred Stock, for the avoidance of doubt, the PIK Dividend Shares, if any) divided by the applicable Public Offering Conversion Price. The Corporation shall provide the Holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock prior written notice of such IPO or Early QPO, including all expected material terms thereof, not less than thirty (30) days prior to the closing thereof. Upon a conversion pursuant hereto, each Holder so converting shall have the registration rights that are granted to such Holder under the Registration Rights Agreement, in each case in accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein.

(B) In the event of a Late QPO, within ten (10) Business Day following the closing thereof, the Corporation may send written notice to the Holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock (the “QPO Early Convertibility Notice”) that it is permitted to and intends to convert all of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock in accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Section 8(a)(iii)(B). The QPO Early Convertibility Notice shall be accompanied by the Conversion Supporting Certifications. In the event of a QPO Early Convertibility Notice:

(x) From the closing date of the QPO and continuing through the date that is the 180 day anniversary of the closing of the Late QPO, dividends on each share of Series A Preferred Stock from time to time outstanding shall accrue at a 0.0% dividend rate; provided, however, that commencing on the date that is the 180-day anniversary of the closing of the Late QPO and continuing through the Conversion Date with respect to a conversion pursuant to this Section 8(a)(iii)(B) (such period of time, the “Special Dividend Rate Period”), dividends on each share of Series A Preferred Stock shall accrue at the applicable Dividend Rate.

(y) At any time after a Late QPO, and irrespective of whether a QPO Early Convertibility Notice has been given, the Corporation may, on the Follow-on Conversion Date, convert shares of Series A Preferred Stock then outstanding into that number of shares of Common Stock (including fractional shares of Common Stock) obtained by dividing the Modified Liquidation Preference of all shares of Series A Preferred Stock to be so converted (including, with respect to the Series A-2 Preferred Stock, any accrued but unpaid dividends, and with respect to the Series A-1 Preferred Stock, for the avoidance of doubt, the

29

PIK Dividend Shares, if any) by the lower of the Public Offering Conversion Price or the Initial Follow-on Public Offering Conversion Price; provided, that, in each case, such price shall not be lower than 75% of the QPO Price.

(z) The Corporation shall provide the Holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock prior written notice of such Late QPO, including all expected material terms thereof, not less than thirty (30) days prior to the closing thereof (it being understood that pricing terms shall be subject to market conditions at the time of the QPO or IPO).

(C) In the event of a QPO, any shares of Series A Preferred Stock that remain outstanding on the applicable PO Conversion Outside Date shall be automatically converted into that number of shares of Common Stock (including fractional shares of Common Stock) obtained by dividing the Modified Liquidation Preference of such shares of Series A Preferred Stock (including, with respect to the Series A-2 Preferred Stock, any accrued but unpaid dividends, and with respect to the Series A-1 Preferred Stock, for the avoidance of doubt, any PIK Dividend Shares and any accrued but unpaid dividends) by the applicable Public Offering Conversion Price.

(b) Effect of Conversion. On and after the date on which any conversion pursuant to Section 8(a) is consummated (such date, a “Conversion Date”), each outstanding share of Series A Preferred Stock so converted shall cease to be outstanding, dividends and distributions on such share shall cease to accrue or be due, and all rights of the Holder(s) of such share shall terminate with respect to such share, except for the right of such Holder(s) to receive cash in lieu of any fractional share, at the option of the Corporation, as provided herein. All shares of Common Stock issued or delivered upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock pursuant to this Section 8 shall be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and shall be free of preemptive or similar rights and free of any liens, mortgages, security interests, pledges, deposits, restrictions or other encumbrances, other than as set forth herein or in the Stockholders Agreement. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Corporation may, at the option of the Corporation, in lieu of issuing fractional shares of Common Stock upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock pursuant to this Section 8, deliver a check in an amount equal to the value of such fraction computed on the basis of the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately before the applicable Conversion Date. In connection with any conversion of shares of Series A Preferred Stock pursuant to this Section 8, each Holder shall surrender its certificate(s) evidencing such shares, if then certificated, to the Corporation or its agent on the applicable Conversion Date.

(c) Rights Plan, Stock Dividends, Recapitalizations, Etc.. If the Corporation has a rights plan in effect that includes Common Stock on a Conversion Date, upon conversion of any shares of the Series A Preferred Stock, Holders of such shares will receive, in addition to the shares of Common Stock, the rights under the rights plan relating to such Common Stock, unless, prior to such conversion date, the rights have (A) become exercisable or (B) separated from the shares of Common Stock (the first of events to occur being the “Trigger Event”), in either of which cases the conversion rate will be adjusted, effective automatically at the time of such Trigger Event, as if the Corporation had made a distribution of such rights to all holders of the Common Stock. In the event of any stock dividend permitted by this Certificate of Designations, or any stock split,

30

reverse stock split, reclassification, recapitalization or other similar event affecting the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, the Corporation shall make any such adjustments, if any, as may be appropriate so as to give proper effect to any such event when calculating the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of Series A Preferred Stock.

(d) HSR Act; Regulatory Compliance. If, as a result of (i) a conversion pursuant to this Section 8 a Holder would be deemed to hold an aggregate number of shares of Common Stock that would require a notification in connection with such conversion under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended (the “HSR Act”) or (ii) any other event that, in the reasonable discretion of an Holder, would require a similar notification, then each of the Corporation and such Holder will prepare and file, or cause to be prepared and filed, with the appropriate Governmental Authorities, notifications with respect to such conversion pursuant to the HSR Act, and all competition filings required by Governmental Authorities outside the United States, seek early termination of any waiting periods under the HSR Act, supply all information requested by Governmental Authorities in connection with the HSR notifications and all other competition filings, and cooperate with each other in responding to any such request. The Corporation shall be solely responsible for all filing fees required to be paid in connection therewith. The Corporation and Holder will use their respective commercially reasonable efforts and will cooperate fully with one another to comply as promptly as practicable with all governmental requirements applicable to the contemplated conversion and to obtain promptly all approvals, Educational Approvals, orders, permits or other consents of any applicable Governmental Authorities and Educational Agencies necessary for the consummation of the contemplated conversion. No conversion or other event subject to filings described in this Section 8(d) shall be consummated until all applicable waiting periods under the HSR Act or similar merger control laws have expired or been terminated, and all approvals, orders, permits or other consents of any applicable Governmental Authorities necessary under the HSR Act, or similar merger control laws, or any Educational Approvals required by any Educational Agency prior to the consummation of the contemplated conversion have been obtained; provided, however, that, to the extent so delayed, at the option of the Holder converting or otherwise requesting a notification under the HSR Act pursuant to this Section 8(d), the Conversion Date for purposes of determining the Optional Conversion Price, the Public Offering Conversion Price or the Initial Follow-on Public Offering Conversion Price, as the case may be, shall be the date on which all applicable waiting periods under the HSR Act or similar merger control laws have expired or been terminated. Any conversion set forth in this Section 8 shall be undertaken in accordance with the requirements of all applicable Educational Laws. To the extent that the parties determine that an Educational Approval is required in connection with such conversion, the parties hereto shall cooperate in good faith, and the Corporation shall use its best efforts (including incurring any costs, fees and expenses reasonably required in connection thereto), to obtain such Educational Approval, including any Educational Approvals that must be obtained prior to any such conversion.

(e) Reservation of Common Stock. The Corporation shall, at all times when any shares of Series A Preferred Stock are outstanding, reserve and keep available, free from preemptive rights, out of its authorized but unissued Common Stock, the full number of shares of Common Stock then issuable upon conversion of all then outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Corporation may, at its election, deliver, upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock, treasury shares of Common Stock or other shares of

31

Common Stock that the Corporation has reacquired, provided such shares comply with the provisions hereof.

(f) Elective Conversion Delay.

(1) Anything to the contrary herein notwithstanding, if, as of any Conversion Date, a conversion price applicable to a conversion pursuant to Section 8(a)(ii)(C) or Section 8(a)(iii) prior to the PO Conversion Outside Date would be lower than the Public Offering Conversion Price without the application of the Public Offering Conversion Price Floor, then the Requisite Series A Preferred Holders being converted pursuant thereto, voting together as a separate class, may elect to delay the conversion until a date that is not later than 90 days following the proposed Conversion Date (but not later than the PO Conversion Outside Date) by written notice to the Corporation within five (5) Business Days following such Holder’s receipt of the Corporation’s notice of conversion. If so elected, then the Requisite Series A Preferred Holders shall have the right to re-calculate the Public Offering Conversion Price utilizing any 30 Trading Day VWAP during such 90 day period; provided, however, that, during such extension period, dividends on each shares of Series A Preferred Stock held by such Holders and being converted shall accrue at a 0.0% dividend rate.

(2) Anything to the contrary herein notwithstanding, if, as of any Conversion Date, a conversion price applicable to a conversion pursuant to Section 8(a)(ii)(C) or Section 8(a)(iii) prior to the PO Conversion Outside Date would be lower than the Public Offering Conversion Price without the application of the Public Offering Conversion Price Floor, then the Corporation may elect to delay the conversion until a date that is not later than 90 days following the proposed Conversion Date (but not later than the PO Conversion Outside Date) by written notice to the Holders. If so elected, then the Corporation shall have the right to re-calculate the Public Offering Conversion Price utilizing any 30 Trading Day VWAP during such 90 day period.

(g) Delayed Conversion. In the event that a conversion under this Section 8 is delayed pursuant to the provisions of Section 8(d), Section 8(f) or otherwise, the Corporation shall ensure that any Registration Statement proposed to be filed by or on behalf of the Corporation or any other Person pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement shall be available at such time as the shares of Series A Preferred Stock so delayed are converted in full. Notwithstanding anything in this Certificate of Designations or other Transaction Documents to the contrary, the Corporation shall not be permitted to convert any shares of Series A Preferred Stock (including, for the avoidance of doubt, as a result of an automatic conversion on the PO Conversion Outside Date) unless and until (i) the effectiveness and availability to the Holders of one or more Registration Statements filed in compliance with the Registration Rights Agreement which provided to the Holders the opportunity to register at least an amount of Conversion Stock equal to the Priority Amount (or, if less, all of the remaining Registrable Securities that are Conversion Stock), and (ii) to the extent required by Section 8 hereof, the Conversion Supporting Certifications have been delivered to the Holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock.

32

Section 9. Voting Rights; Protective Provisions.

(a) General.

(1) The holders of Series A Preferred Stock shall not have any voting rights except as from time to time required by law or expressly contemplated herein.

(2) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 9(b) hereof or the applicable provisions of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, including Section 242(b) thereof, shares of Series A Preferred Stock held by the Current Stockholders or any Affiliates of the Current Stockholders, if any, shall not have any voting or consent rights hereunder (including with respect to the actions described in Section 9(b) hereof or the applicable provisions of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, including Section 242(b) thereof), and shall not be counted for purposes of determining whether the Requisite Series A Preferred Holders or the Super Majority Requisite Holders thresholds have been satisfied; provided, however, such restriction shall automatically terminate without any further action required by the Corporation or the Holders upon the Transfer of shares of Series A Preferred Stock by the Current Stockholders or any Affiliates of the Current Stockholders, as applicable, to an Unaffiliated Third Party and such Unaffiliated Third Party shall be entitled to vote or consent to the actions described in Section 9 hereof.

(b) Protective Provisions. So long as any shares of Series A Preferred Stock are outstanding, the Corporation shall not effect or agree to effect any amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation (including by means of merger, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization or otherwise) without the approval of the Holders of the Series A Preferred to the extent required herein, no waiver by any Holder of shares of Series A Preferred Stock of any of the provisions hereof shall be effective unless explicitly set forth in writing and signed by such Holder, and no Holder of shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled to waive, and any waiver by such Holder shall not operate or be construed as a waiver in respect of, any rights, preferences or privileges of any other Holder of shares of Series A Preferred Stock. So long as any shares of Series A Preferred Stock are outstanding, in addition to any other vote or consent of stockholders required by law or by the Certificate of Incorporation or any other Transaction Documents:

(1) the consent of the Requisite Series A Preferred Holders, given in person or by proxy, either in writing without a meeting or by consenting at any meeting called for the purpose, shall be necessary for effecting or validating:
