Explanation of Responses:

1. 2,715 restricted stock units held by Ms. Dunkin vested on February 28, 2018 and were settled in exchange for a like amount of shares of Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Company's (the "Company") common stock, subject to the Company's withholding of 1,255 shares of common stock to satisfy withholding obligations in connection with federal, state, local or other taxes required to be withheld or paid in connection with the settlement of the restricted stock units.

2. This amendment is being filed to reflect the correct amount of securities beneficially owned by the reporting person following the February 28, 2018 vesting of the restricted stock units.

3. Each restricted stock unit represents a contingent right to receive one share of the Company's common stock.

4. The remaining restricted stock units shall vest in two equal installments on February 28, 2019 and February 28, 2020, subject to continued employment with the Company.

Remarks:
