Item 5.02. Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

On May 15, 2012, the Compensation Committee adopted the 2012 Executive Profit Sharing Plan ("2012 Plan") for Messrs. Andrew S. Clark, Daniel J. Devine and Rodney T. Sheng, Dr. Jane L. McAuliffe and Ms. Diane L. Thompson (collectively, the "named executive officers"). Under the 2012 Plan, the payment to the named executive officers of annual performance-based cash bonuses related to 2012 performance will be based on the achievement of corresponding company-wide performance targets related to quality, EBITDA and revenue, with each respective metric receiving one-third of the weighting. There will be no individual performance metrics. The performance target for quality will require the achievement by our company in 2012 of certain quality metrics based on cohort default rates, 90/10 ratio, net promoter score, employee retention, and the development and enhancement of certain predictive modeling and learning tools.

The Compensation Committee has determined that the 2012 target bonus amounts for Messrs. Clark, Devine and Sheng would be 100%, 65% and 75%, respectively, of their annual base salaries, and that the 2012 target bonus amounts for Dr. McAuliffe and Ms. Thompson would be 55% and 35%, respectively, of their annual base salaries. Actual bonus amounts paid to the named executive officers may be or more or less than the target bonus amounts. For 2012, the Compensation Committee determined that (1) the minimum or threshold bonus amount for each named executive officer will be 50% of the officer's target bonus amount, and
(2) the maximum bonus amount for each named executive officer will be 200% of the officer's target bonus amount. The Compensation Committee has the discretion to award bonus amounts that fall in between the threshold, target and maximum amounts for attainment of performance that falls in between the specified goals.
