        <footnote id="F1">Represents the grant of 1,500,000 shares of restricted stock to ZelnickMedia Corporation, of which Benjamin Feder is a
 partner. No shares of common stock are owned by Mr. Feder directly. Pursuant to the Second Amendment to the Management
 Agreement between the Issuer and ZelnickMedia Corporation (the &quot;Second Amendment&quot;), the obligation of the Issuer to grant
 such shares of restricted stock to ZelnickMedia Corporation became fixed at the 2008 annual meeting of stockholders of the
 Issuer on April 17, 2008, upon the approval by such stockholders of an amendment to the Issuer's Incentive Stock Plan to
 permit grants of equity awards to consultants and to increase the number of shares authorized for issuance under such plan.
 (Continued to footnote 2)</footnote>
        <footnote id="F2">(Continued from footnote 1) Accordingly, the Issuer is required to grant such shares of restricted stock to ZelnickMedia
 Corporation on the earlier of (i) the fifth trading day following the filing of the Issuer's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q
 for its second fiscal quarter (ending April 30, 2008), currently anticipated to be in June 2008 and (ii) June 30, 2008.  For
 additional information regarding the shares of restricted stock and the Second Amendment, see the Issuer's Current Report on
 Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 15, 2008.</footnote>
