9. Litigation

From time to time, the Company is involved in litigation and other legal proceedings arising out of the ordinary course of its business. On October 15, 2010, a putative securities class action was filed in the United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida. On April 19, 2011, the Company filed a motion to dismiss the complaint. On January 3, 2011, a shareholder derivative complaint was filed in Florida state court in Hillsborough County, Florida. On or about March 29, 2011, the plaintiff and Strayer jointly submitted to the Florida state court a stipulation recognizing that Fairfax, Virginia is a more appropriate forum for this litigation. On April 4, 2011, plaintiff filed a complaint in the Circuit Court of Fairfax County, and on June 27, 2011, the Court stayed the action pending resolution of the motion to dismiss in the securities class action suit. The Company believes these lawsuits are without merit and will contest them vigorously. While the outcome of any legal proceeding cannot be predicted with certainty, the Company does not expect these matters will have a material effect on its financial condition or results of operations.
