Commitments and Contingencies	10. Commitments and Contingencies Litigation In the ordinary conduct of the Company’s business, the Company is subject to lawsuits, arbitrations and administrative proceedings from time to time. The Company vigorously defends these claims; however, no assurances can be given as to the outcome of any pending legal proceedings. The Company believes, based on currently available information, that the outcome of any existing or known threatened proceedings, even if determined adversely, should not have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition, liquidity or results of operations. On July 20 and September 15, 2016, two securities class action lawsuits—captioned Babulal Tarapara v. K12 Inc., et al., Case No. 3:16-cv-04069, and Gil Tuinenburg v. K12 Inc., et al., Case No. 3:16-cv-05305, respectively—were filed against the Company, two of its officers and one of its former officers in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California. On October 6, 2016, the Court consolidated the cases and recaptioned the matter as In Re K12 Inc. Securities Litigation, Master File No. 4:16-cv-04069-PJH. On August 30, 2017, the Court dismissed the plaintiffs’ claims alleging false or misleading statements and omissions related to Scantron results and the quality and effectiveness of K12’s academic services and offerings. On September 5, 2018, and as a result of a Court ordered mediation, the parties reached an agreement in principle to settle the remaining claim concerning disclosure of a notice of non-automatic renewal of a managed school contract. Although the Company believes that the remaining claim in this matter lacked merit, it agreed to settle the case to avoid continued distraction and management time, and the Company’s insurance carriers agreed to pay $3.5 million into a settlement fund for the alleged class and attorneys’ fees and costs. The Court preliminarily approved the proposed settlement on February 14, 2019, and granted the plaintiffs’ motion for final settlement approval on July 10, 2019. On May 10, 2019, K12 Virtual Schools LLC filed a demand for arbitration with the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), Case No. 01-19-001-4778, naming Georgia Cyber Academy, Inc. (“GCA”) and Georgia Cyber Academy Board as the respondents. The demand asserts claims for GCA’s breach and anticipatory breach of the Educational Products and Services Agreement between Georgia Cyber Academy Inc. and K12 Virtual Schools LLC, as amended on January 4, 2019, based on GCA’s engagement of other educational products and service providers for the school year 2019-2020. On May 29, 2019, GCA filed counterclaims against K12 Virtual Schools, LLC for breach of contract, fraud, breach of the duty of good faith and fair dealing, and negligent misrepresentation. On June 12, 2019, the AAA appointed an arbitrator. The Company is presently unable to predict the outcome of this arbitration, though it does not expect that the outcome will have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations for the year ended June 30, 2019. K12 intends to pursue vigorously its claims against GCA, and defend vigorously against each and every counterclaim set forth by GCA. Employment Agreements The Company has entered into employment agreements with certain executive officers that provide for severance payments and, in some cases other benefits, upon certain terminations of employment. Except for the agreement with the Company’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer with an amended extended term to September 30, 2019, all other agreements provide for employment on an “at-will” basis. If the employee resigns for “good reason” or is terminated without cause, the employee is entitled to salary continuation, and in some cases benefit continuation, for varying periods depending on the agreement. Off‑Balance Sheet Arrangements As of June 30, 2019, the Company provided guarantees of approximately $1.5 million related to lease commitments on the buildings for certain of the Company’s schools. Previously, the Company had guaranteed two leases which are excluded from the number above, and discussed in more detail below. During the year ended June 30, 2017, the lessee on one of the leases in which the Company served as guarantor defaulted, and under the terms of the guarantee, the obligation was assigned to the Company. Since the default occurred, the Company has taken steps to exit this facility and entered into an agreement to sublet the space. Additionally, during the year ended June 30, 2017, the Company entered into a lease buyout agreement with the landlord on another guaranteed space to exit the lease early under the terms of the original lease (see Note 11, “Restructuring”). In addition, the Company contractually guarantees that certain schools under the Company’s management will not have annual operating deficits and the Company’s management fees from these schools may be reduced accordingly to cover any school operating deficits. Other than these lease and operating deficit guarantees, the Company did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on the Company’s financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.
