2.No Claims: The Executive represents and agrees that he has not filed any notices, claims, complaints, charges, or lawsuits of any kind whatsoever against the Releasees (as defined in Paragraph 11) with any court, any governmental agency, any regulatory body or any other third party with respect to any matter related to the Company, a Company Affiliate or a Releasee, or arising out of his employment with and/or separation from the Company.

Except as specifically provided for in this Paragraph 3 and in Paragraphs 6 and 9, the Executive shall not be entitled to receive any compensation or benefits of employment from the Company or any Company Affiliate following the Separation Date.
4.Non-Admission of Liability and Acknowledgement of Compliance: This Agreement and the fact that it was offered are not and shall not in any way be construed as admissions by the Company that it violated any federal, state or local law, statute or regulation, or that it acted wrongfully with respect to the Executive or to any other person or entity in any manner. The Company specifically disclaims any liability to or wrongful acts against the Executive or any other person or entity. Further, the Executive acknowledges and agrees that it is the policy of the Company to comply with all applicable federal, state and local laws and regulations. The Executive affirms that he has reported all compliance issues and violations of federal, state and local laws or regulations or Company policy of which he had knowledge during the term of his employment, if any. The Executive represents and acknowledges that he has no further or additional knowledge or information regarding compliance issues or possible violations of federal, state or local laws or regulations or Company policy other than what the Executive has previously raised, if any.
5.Non-Admissibility: Neither this Agreement nor anything in this Agreement shall be construed to be or shall be admissible in any proceeding as evidence of or an admission by the Company or the Executive of any violation of any state, federal or local laws or regulations or any rules, regulations, criteria or standards of any regulatory body. This Agreement may be introduced, however, in any proceeding to enforce the Agreement.
6.Consideration: In exchange for the promises and agreements made by the Executive contained in this Agreement and in satisfaction of the terms of the Career Education Corporation Severance Plan for Executive Level Employees the Company will (a) within ten (10) days following the date this Agreement may no longer be revoked by the Executive as described in Paragraph 18 of this Agreement (and provided that this Agreement has not been revoked), (i) pay to the Executive a lump-sum payment of $350,000.00 (which amount is equal to twelve (12) months of pay calculated based on the Executive’s base salary as of the Separation Date), less all applicable taxes and other withholdings; and (ii) pay to the Executive a lump-sum payment of $72,870.00, less all applicable taxes and other withholdings, which is made in lieu of any bonus that the Executive may have earned for the year that includes the Separation Date; (b) if the Executive is currently a participant in the Company health and/or dental insurance plan(s) and the Executive timely elects to continue insurance coverage under federal COBRA law, pay the Executive’s COBRA premium for the following month(s): July 2009; August 2009; September 2009; October 2009; November 2009; December 2009; January 2010; February 2010; March 2010; April 2010; May 2010 and June 2010; and (c) pay for one year of access to executive-level outplacement services to be provided to the Executive by an organization selected by the Company at a cost of up to, but not exceeding, $75,000.00, which amount will be paid directly to the outplacement services provider.
The Executive acknowledges that the monies and benefits set forth in this Paragraph 6 constitute additional consideration above and beyond anything to which the Executive is already entitled, in exchange for his execution of this Agreement.

8.Non-Competition, Non-Solicitation and Confidential Information.
8.1Confidential Information and Protection of Confidential Information. The Executive acknowledges that, throughout and as an incident to his employment with the Company, the Executive has become acquainted with and received Confidential Information relating to the Company, including trade secrets, processes, methods of operation, business models and plans, advertising and marketing plans and strategies, Company records, research techniques and results, academic programs, academic course development, methods of instruction, training programs, computer programs, databases, software codes, systems and models, marketing, promotional and sales programs, and financial information concerning the business of the Company, which information is not readily available to the public and gives the Company an opportunity to gain an advantage over competitors who do not know or use this information in the same manner as the Company, and which the Company regards as confidential and proprietary (collectively “Confidential Information”). Such Confidential Information includes, but is not limited to: (i) information relating to the Company’s past and existing students and vendors and the development of prospective students and vendors, including, but not limited to, specific student service and product requirements, pricing, arrangements, payment terms, student lists and other similar information; (ii) inventions, designs, methods, discoveries, works of authorship, creations, improvements or ideas developed or otherwise produced, acquired or used by the Company; (iii) advertising and marking plans and strategies; (iv) the Company’s proprietary programs, processes or software; (v) the subject matter of any patents, design patents, copyrights, trade secrets, trademarks, service marks, trade names, trade dress, manuals, operating instructions, training materials, and other industrial property; and (vi) other confidential and proprietary information or documents relating to the Company or its students or vendors which the Company reasonably regards as being confidential. Confidential Information does not include: (a) information known in general to The Executive’s profession, or that becomes known thereafter, other than by an unauthorized act of the Executive; (b) information that was lawfully in the Executive’s possession before his employment with the Company; or (c) information obtained lawfully and in good faith from another party after such disclosure emanating from an original source other than the Company.
The Executive acknowledges that the Confidential Information is of incalculable value to the Company and is the exclusive property of the Company, and that the Company would suffer irreparable damage if any of the Confidential Information is improperly disclosed or used. Accordingly, the Executive will not, at any time during or after the Executive’s separation from employment with the Company, reveal, divulge, or make known to any person, firm or corporation any Confidential Information made known to the Executive or of which the Executive has become aware, regardless of whether developed, prepared, devised, or otherwise created in whole or in part by the efforts of the Executive. The Executive further agrees that he will retain all Confidential Information in trust for the sole benefit of the Company, and will not divulge or deliver any Confidential Information to any unauthorized person including, without limitation, any other employer of the Executive except as required by the order of any court or similar tribunal or any other governmental body or agency of appropriate jurisdiction;provided, that the Executive will, to the extent practicable, give the Company prior written notice of any such disclosure and will cooperate with the Company in obtaining a protective order or such similar protection as the Company may deem appropriate to preserve the confidential nature of such information. The foregoing obligations to maintain the Confidential Information shall not apply to any Confidential Information that is, or without any action by the Executive becomes, generally available to the public.

8.2Non-Competition. Commencing on the Separation Date and for fifty-two (52) weeks thereafter, the Executive shall not, in any way, directly or indirectly, either for the Executive or any other person or entity, whether paid or unpaid, accept employment with, own, manage, operate, consult or provide expert services to any person or entity that competes with the Company or any of its subsidiaries in any capacity that involves any responsibilities or activities involving or relating to any Competing Educational Service, as defined herein. “Competing Educational Service” means any educational service that competes with the educational services provided by the Company and/or any of its subsidiaries, including, but not limited to, coursework in the areas of visual communication and design technologies; information technology; business studies; culinary arts; and health education, or any education service. The Executive hereby acknowledges that the following organizations, among others, provide Competing Educational Services, and should the Executive accept employment with, own, manage, operate, consult or provide expert services to any of these organizations within said 52-week period, it would inevitably require the use and/or disclosure of Confidential Information belonging to the Company and/or its subsidiaries and would provide such organizations with an unfair business advantage over the Company: DeVry, Inc.; Kaplan, Inc.; Apollo Group Inc.; Education Management LLC; Embanet Corporation; Capella Education Company; ITT Educational Services, Inc.; Corinthian Colleges, Inc.; and Strayer Education, Inc. and each of their respective subsidiaries, affiliates and successors. The Executive further acknowledges that the Company and/or its subsidiaries provide career-oriented education through physical and web-based virtual campuses throughout the world and, therefore, it is impracticable to identify a limited, specific geographical scope for this Paragraph 8.2. Nothing herein shall prevent the Executive from owning less than two percent (2%) of the capital stock of a company whose stock is publicly traded and that is engaged in Competing Educations Services.
8.3Non-Solicitation/Non-Hire. Commencing on the Separation Date and for eighteen (18) months thereafter, the Executive will not, directly or indirectly, individually or on behalf of any Person (as defined below) (a) hire, solicit, aid or induce any then-current employee of the Company or Company Affiliates to leave the Company or Company Affiliates to accept employment with or render services for the Executive or such Person, or (b) solicit, aid or induce any then-current student, customer, client, vendor, lender, supplier or sales representative of the Company or Company Affiliates or similar persons engaged in business with the Company or Company Affiliates to discontinue the relationship or reduce the amount of business done with the Company or Company Affiliates. “Person” means any individual, a partnership, a corporation, an association, a limited liability company, a joint stock company, a trust, a joint venture, an unincorporated organization, a governmental entity, or any department, agency or political subdivision thereof, or an accrediting body.
8.4Acknowledgements. The Executive fully understands the nature and burdens of this Paragraph 8. The Executive acknowledges that the provisions of this Paragraph 8 are fair, reasonable, and not excessively broad, that they are necessary to protect important and legitimate business interests of the Company, Company Affiliates and each school, and that in light of the Executive’s education, experience, and capabilities, the Executive can honor all parts of this Paragraph 8 without being prevented from earning a fully adequate livelihood for the Executive and the Executive’s dependents from now throughout any period during which the Executive’s activities are restricted hereunder. The Executive agrees that the covenants in this Paragraph 8 are in addition to any common law, statutory or contractual obligations of the Executive.
4
8.5Remedies and Enforcement. The Executive acknowledges that a breach on his part of the terms of the Restrictive Covenants set forth in this Paragraph 8 will cause irreparable damage to the Company and that monetary damages will not provide an adequate remedy to the Company. Accordingly, the Executive agrees that the Company will be entitled to enforce the terms herein in court and seek any and all remedies available to it in equity and law, including, but not limited to, injunctive relief, without the posting of any bond or other security. The Executive agrees to pay the Company’s attorneys’ fees and costs related to the enforcement of such Restrictive Covenants should it succeed on its claim(s). The Executive further acknowledges and agrees that in the event any of the Restrictive Covenants contained in this Paragraph 8, or any part thereof, hereafter is construed to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, the same shall not affect the remainder of such covenant or any other covenants. The Executive and the Company expressly empower a court of competent jurisdiction to modify any Restrictive Covenant in this Paragraph 8 to the extent necessary to make it legal, valid, and enforceable.
9.Indemnity and Cooperation: In the event of a lawsuit or claim by a third party in which the Executive is sued either jointly or separately for acts arising out of the scope of the Executive’s employment with the Company, the Company agrees to defend the Executive and hold the Executive harmless in accordance with the Executive’s rights to indemnification under the Company’s certificate of incorporation or bylaws of the Company or any existing Indemnification Agreement between the Executive and the Company. In turn, in the event of any pending or threatened legal action against the Company or the Company Affiliates or Releasees relating to events which occurred during the Executive’s employment, the Executive acknowledges and agrees that he will cooperate to the fullest extent possible in the investigation, preparation, prosecution, or defense of the Company’s or the Company Affiliate’s case, including, but not limited to, the execution of affidavits or documents or providing of information requested by the Company or the Company’s counsel. Reasonable out-of-pocket expenses related to such assistance will be reimbursed by the Company, if the Company’s written approval is obtained in advance. In addition, the Executive will be compensated by the Company for his time, at the rate of $100/hour, when requested by the Company to prepare to provide testimony or spend time assisting the Company in any of the foregoing activities or with such matters. The Executive will not, however, be compensated for the time he spends providing testimony. Nothing in this Paragraph should be construed as suggesting or implying that the Executive should testify in any way other than truthfully or provide anything other than accurate, truthful information. The Executive further agrees to provide truthful and timely answers to any reasonable questions the Company may have from time to time about the work the Executive performed during his employment. A failure on the part of the Executive to reasonably cooperate with the Company shall constitute and be treated as a material breach of this Agreement. Any amount paid to the Executive pursuant to this Paragraph 9 for his time shall be paid promptly, and in any event no later than March 15 of the year following the year in which such services occurred. For purposes of complying with Section 409A, with respect to any reimbursement required to be made pursuant to this Paragraph 9, (i) the provision of such reimbursements during one calendar year shall not affect the reimbursements made available in a different calendar year, (ii) such reimbursements shall not be subject to liquidation or exchange for other benefits, and (iii) any reimbursements shall be paid as soon as administratively feasible (or in accordance with the timing prescribed under the applicable Company policy) after the applicable expense is incurred but no later than the last day of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the applicable expense was incurred.
10.Company Property: The Executive represents, warrants and covenants that the Executive has returned to the Company (or will return to the Company on or before the Separation Date) all Company property in the Executive’s possession or control, including,
5
without limitation, all telephones, keys, access cards, security badges, credit cards, phone cards, equipment, computer hardware and encryption devices (including but not limited to all computers, Blackberry devices, and personal data assistants), all contents of all such hardware, all passwords and codes needed to obtain access to or operate all or part of any such hardware, all electronic storage devices (including but not limited to all hard drives, disk drives, diskettes, CDs, CD-ROMs, DVDs, and DVD-ROMs), all contents of all such electronic storage devices, all passwords and codes needed to obtain access to or use all or part of any such electronic storage device, all computer software and programs, financial information, accounting records, computer printouts, manuals, data, materials, papers, books, files, documents, records, policies, student information and lists, customer information and lists, marketing information, specifications and plans, data base information and lists, mailing lists, and notes, including but not limited to any property describing or containing any Confidential Information, and the Executive agree that the Executive will not retain any copies, duplicates, reproductions or excerpts thereof in any form whatsoever.
