The Company&#146;s clients&#146; programs generally start classes for new and returning students four times per year on average. These class starts are not evenly spaced throughout the year, however, and they do not necessarily correspond to the traditional academic calendar or the fiscal calendar and may vary from year to year. For example, a particular program may have a term that begins before the end of a calendar quarter in one year, but that same program&#146;s corresponding term may start after the beginning of the next calendar quarter in the following year.&#160; This year-to-year variation could result in a change in total course enrollments during an interim period that would not accurately reflect the revenue trends for its business. Changes in academic schedules rarely occur over the course of a full calendar year, however, and academic terms rarely straddle calendar years. Accordingly, the Company considers the metric of total number of course enrollments meaningful only for calendar year periods.</font></b></p>

ASC 350-40-05-2 sets forth the characteristics of internal-use software as software that is being acquired, internally developed, or modified solely to meet the entity&#146;s internal needs, and for which, during the software&#146;s development or modification, no substantive plan exists or is being developed to market the software externally.</font></b></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt .5in;"><b><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;font-weight:bold;">EITF 00-3 provides further assistance in making the determination as to whether developed software is for internal or external use in observing that if the vendor never sells, leases or licenses the software, then the software is utilized in providing services, and the development costs of the software should be accounted for in accordance with SOP 98-1, which was superseded by ASC 350-40. Further, if it is not feasible for the customer either to run the software on its own hardware or to contract with another unrelated party to host the software, then it does not meet the characteristics of a sale. In drawing a parallel comparison, the Company believes that its developed curriculum content is never sold, leased or licensed to, or otherwise taken into possession by, its clients; rather, the Company utilizes the developed content to meet its internal needs in providing services and fulfilling contractual obligations to its clients. Furthermore, the Company&#146;s clients are unable to utilize the content without the Company&#146;s platform.</font></b></p>

The Company only capitalizes content development costs incurred during the application development stage of each of its client degree programs, and only those costs that are directly attributable to the design and optimization of its clients&#146; curricula for online delivery and production of video and other digital content utilized in these programs.&#160; The Company believes this treatment is consistent with the treatment of capitalized costs under ASC 350-40-25-2.</font></b></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt .5in;"><b><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;font-weight:bold;">Furthermore, ASC 350-40-30 prescribes that costs of computer software developed or obtained for internal use that may be capitalized include only external direct costs of materials and services consumed in developing or obtaining the internal-use computer software, as well as payroll and payroll-related costs for employees who are directly associated with the internal-use software project. In the case of the Company&#146;s content development, only the same types of costs incurred in the direct production of program curriculum are capitalized.</font></b></p>

In determining the useful life of developed content at the degree program level, the Company considered expected curriculum refresh rates cited by program faculty members for similar on-campus programs, which are approximately five years. Additionally, the developed content is reusable over multiple semesters; in fact, the content created for the Company&#146;s earliest launched programs in 2009 is still in use today.</font></b></p>

Additionally, the content is transferable to newer technologies as they become utilized, and the Company believes its estimated useful life of five years represents a term that most closely matches the future</font></b></p>
