[Explanatory note: the following letter is being sent to certain stockholders
for the reasons described herein.]


IMPORTANT INFORMATION, ACTION REQUIRED

Dear PLATO Learning, Inc. Stockholder,

Within the last few days, you received proxy material for the PLATO annual
meeting to be held on March 22, 2001. There was an error in the printing and
production of the proxy cards that caused incorrect share amounts to be printed
on some but not all proxy cards. Enclosed is a card with the correct share
amounts. Please be aware that PLATO's annual report and proxy statement that
were previously sent to you were correct.

ACTION REQUIRED

If you had previously voted via the phone or internet, the correct share amounts
were voted and there is no action required on your part. If you have not yet
voted, you may vote via the phone or internet or by returning the enclosed blue
proxy card and disregard the white proxy card previously sent to you.

In the event duplicate votes have been cast, the most recent vote received will
be tabulated and cast. Your vote will only be counted once.

The error resulted from a transfer agent printing problem and was not caused by
PLATO. The correction was made at the transfer agent's expense and will not be
charged to PLATO. We apologize to the stockholders as well as the company for
this error and any confusion. If you have questions, contact us at
1-800-468-9716.

Sincerely,
Wells Fargo Shareowner Services
