Annex A
                                                                Exhibit 10.3i
                                                 

ADIRONDACK LEADERSHIP EXPEDITIONS, LLC
SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT

THIS SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”), dated as of April 1, 2004, is
entered into by and between ADIRONDACK LEADERSHIP EXPEDITIONS, LLC, a Delaware
limited liability company (the “Company”), and the undersigned, SUE CROWELL (the
“Employee”).

RECITALS
 
WHEREAS, the Company is an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of Aspen Education
Group, Inc., a California corporation (“AEG”), and a direct, wholly-owned
subsidiary of Aspen Youth, Inc., a California corporation (“Aspen”).

WHEREAS, Employee is employed by AEG as the head of the wilderness division of
AEG.

WHEREAS, in order to give Employee an opportunity to acquire an interest in the
Company as an incentive for Employee to continue participating in the affairs of
the Company, the Company desires to issue certain membership interests to
Employee pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth herein.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and of the mutual agreements,
representations, warranties, provisions, covenants and other consideration, the
sufficiency and adequacy of which is hereby acknowledged, the Company and
Employee agree as follows:

1.                      Issuance of Membership Interest. On April 1, 2008 (the
“Vesting Date”), the Company shall issue to Employee ten (10) units of the
Company (the “Units”), which represent ten percent (10%) of the issued and
outstanding membership interests of the Company. On such date of issuance, the
Company shall deliver to Employee a membership certificate registered in
Employee’s name representing the Units and Employee shall sign a receipt
acknowledging receipt of the Units.

2.                      Amended and Restated Operating Agreement.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not issue the Units to Employee
unless and until Employee signs an Amended and Restated Operating Agreement,
effective as of the date of issuance of the Units, that includes the transfer
restrictions and other rights and obligations of the Company and Employee as set
forth herein. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Amended and
Restated Operating Agreement shall provide that all Distributions (as defined
therein) shall be made to Aspen and that no Distribution shall be made to
Employee. The Company shall provide such Amended and Restated Operating
Agreement to Employee for review no later than 30 days prior to the Vesting
Date.

3.                      Sale of the Company. In  the event Aspen elects to sell
the membership interests of the Company, whether through a direct purchase or
through a merger or other type of transaction, or all or substantially all of
the assets of the Company, to a third party (a “Call  Event”) on or after the
Vesting Date, the Company shall notify Employee of such sale at least ten
days prior to the closing of such sale and Employee shall sell or transfer the
Units to the Company on or before the closing date.

(a)           In consideration for such sale or transfer of the Units to the
Company, Employee shall receive an amount of consideration (the “Transfer
Price”) equal to: the product of (i) the sum of (X) twelve month trailing EBITDA
for the twelve month period ending on the last day of the month immediately
preceding the month in which such Call Event occurs, minus (Y) an amount equal
to maintenance capital expenditures for such twelve month period; multiplied by
(ii) 4.5; multiplied by (iii) 10%.

As an example only, if the twelve month trailing EBIDTA for the relevant period
is $1,000,000 and maintenance capital expenditures for that period is $100,000,
the Transfer Price would be equal to:

($1,000,000 - $100,000) x 4.5 x 0.10 = $405,000

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                                                    Exhibit 10.3i
    (b)           The consideration that Employee shall receive shall be in the
same form or type of consideration as Aspen receives for the sale of such
membership interests or assets. For example, if Aspen receives shares of capital
stock of the third party purchaser, Employee shall be entitled to that number of
such shares of capital stock of the third party purchaser equal to the product
of the Transfer Price divided by the per Unit price Aspen receives for the sale
of such membership interests or assets. Employee shall deliver the membership
certificate representing the Units to the Company on the date and at the
location designated by the Company and shall sign such agreements or other
documents in connection with the sale of the Units to the Company as the Company
reasonably requests.

4.                      Conversion Upon an IPO. In the event AEG completes an
initial public offering (an “IPO”) of its common stock prior to the Vesting
Date, the Employee’s right to receive the Units shall automatically be converted
into the right to receive a number of shares of common stock of AEG (which
shares of common stock shall not be registered under the Securities Act of 1933,
as amended (the “Act”)) on the Vesting Date equal to the product of (i) the
Transfer Price that Employee would have received had a Call Event occurred on
the Vesting Date, divided by (ii) the closing price per share of the AEG common
stock on the Vesting Date. For purposes of this Agreement, an “initial public
offering” shall mean the initial firm commitment underwritten public offering of
the common stock of Aspen, immediately following which such common stock is
listed for trading on the New York Stock Exchange or for quotation on the NASDAQ
National Market System or other agreed, internationally recognized stock
exchange.
 
5.                      Termination of Employment.

(a)           If prior to the Vesting Date (i) Employee ceases to be an employee
of AEG, Aspen or the Company, or ceases to provide services to the Company,
whether due to Employee’s death, disability or voluntary or involuntary
termination, or (ii) the membership interests or all or substantially all of the
assets of the Company are sold or transferred to a third party that is not an
affiliate of AEG, this Agreement shall automatically terminate and have no
further force or effect and Employee shall not be
consideration pursuant to this Agreement or in connection with the termination
of this Agreement.

(b)           If after the Vesting Date Employee ceases to be an employee of
AEG, Aspen or the Company, or ceases to provide services to the Company, whether
due to Employee’s death, disability or voluntary or involuntary termination, the
Company shall have the right, but not the obligation, to purchase the Units from
the Employee for a purchase price equal to the Transfer Price; provided that for
purposes of this Section 5(b), the Transfer Price shall be calculated using the
twelve month period ending on the last day of the month immediately preceding
the month in which Employee’s employment terminated.

6.                      Right of First Refusal. Employee agrees that in the
event Employee desires to transfer any or all of her Units to another party,
Employee shall give prior written notice to the Company describing in reasonable
detail the terms of such bona fide offer. For a period of thirty (30) days after
such notice of transfer is received by the Company (the “Exercise Period”), the
Company shall have a right to repurchase all or any portion of the Units to be
transferred at the lower of the price set forth in the transfer notice or the
Transfer Price, and upon the terms set forth in the transfer notice (the
“Company’s First Refusal Rights”). The Company shall exercise the Company First
Refusal Rights by giving Employee written notice of such intention prior to the
expiration of the Exercise Period.

7.                      Representations and Warranties of the Company. The
Company hereby represents and warrants to Employee that, as of the date hereof:

(a)           The Company is a limited liability company validly existing in
good standing under the laws of the state of Delaware and has all requisite
power and authority to carry on its business as now conducted and as proposed to
be conducted and to enter into and perform this Agreement and to carry out the
transactions contemplated hereby. The Company is duly qualified to transact
business and is in good standing in each jurisdiction in which the failure to so
qualify would have a material adverse effect on its business or properties.

(b)           The outstanding membership interests of the Company consists of
100 Units.

8.                      Representations and Warranties of Employee. Employee
acknowledges, represents and warrants to the Company as follows:

(a)           Employee understands that the Units have not been registered under
the Act, or under any other federal or state law, and that the Company does not
currently contemplate such a registration.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                                                      Exhibit 10.3i
(b)           Employee has such knowledge, skill and experience in business,
financial and investment matters so that Employee is capable of evaluating the
merits and risks of an investment in the Units. To the extent that Employee has
deemed it appropriate to do so, Employee has retained, and relied upon,
appropriate professional advice regarding the tax, legal and financial merits
and consequences of the investment in the Units.

(c)           Employee has made, either alone or together with advisors (if
any), such independent investigation of the Company, its management, and related
matters as Employee deems to be, or such advisors (if any) have advised to be,
necessary or advisable in connection with an investment in the Units; and
Employee and Employee’s advisors (if any) have received all information and data
which Employee and such advisors (if any) believe to be necessary in order to
reach an informed decision as to the advisability of an investment in the Units.
Employee is satisfied that there are no material facts regarding the Company or
the Units as to which Employee has not been fully informed.

(d)           Employee represents that Employee has reviewed Employee’s
financial condition and commitments, alone and together with Employee’s
advisors, and that, based on such review, Employee is satisfied that (i)
Employee has adequate means of providing for Employee’s financial needs and
possible contingencies and has assets or sources of income which, taken
together, are more than sufficient so that Employee could bear the risk of loss
of Employee’s entire investment in the Units, (ii) Employee has no present or
contemplated future need or intention to dispose of or sell all or any portion
of the Units to satisfy any existing or contemplated undertaking, need or
indebtedness, and (iii) Employee is capable of bearing the economic risk of an
investment in the Units for the indefinite future. Employee agrees to furnish
any additional information requested by the Company to assure compliance of this
transaction with applicable federal and state securities laws in connection with
the purchase and sale of the Units.

(e)           Employee understands that the Units are “restricted securities”
under applicable federal securities laws and that the Act and the rules of the
Securities and Exchange Commission provide in substance that Employee may
dispose of the Units only pursuant to an effective registration statement under
the Act or an exemption from such registration if available. Employee further
understands that the Company has no obligation or intention to register any of
the Units under or to take action so as to permit sales pursuant to the Act.
Employee further understands that applicable blue sky laws may permit sales of
the Units only if the Units are registered or the transaction is subject to an
applicable exemption. As a consequence, Employee understands that Employee must
bear the economic risks of the investment in the Units for an indefinite period
of time.

(f)           Employee hereby confirms that Employee is acquiring the Units for
investment only and not with a view to or in connection with any resale or
distribution of the Units. Employee hereby affirms that Employee has no present
intention of making any sale, assignment, pledge, gift, transfer or other
disposition of the Units or any interest therein.

(g)           Employee is an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Rule
501 under the Act and the representations made on the Preliminary Purchaser
Questionnaire delivered previously to the Company are true and correct in all
respects as of the date hereof.

(h)           Employee acknowledges and agrees that for purposes of this
Agreement, the term “Units” as used in this Section 8 shall mean the Units as
defined in Section 1 and the shares of common stock of AEG which Employee may
receive pursuant to Section 4.

membership certificate evidencing the Units will bear a restrictive legend

SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT

THIS SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”), dated as of April 1, 2004, is
entered into by and between LONE STAR EXPEDITIONS, INC., a Delaware corporation
(the “Company”), and the undersigned, SUE CROWELL (the “Employee”).

RECITALS
 
WHEREAS, the Company is an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of Aspen Education
Group, Inc., a California corporation (“AEG”), and a direct, wholly-owned
subsidiary of Aspen Youth, Inc., a California corporation (“Aspen”).

WHEREAS, Employee is employed by AEG as the head of the wilderness division of
AEG.

WHEREAS, in order to give Employee an opportunity to acquire an interest in the
Company as an incentive for Employee to continue participating in the affairs of
the Company, the Company desires to issue shares of its common stock to Employee
pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth herein.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and of the mutual agreements,
representations, warranties, provisions, covenants and other consideration, the
sufficiency and adequacy of which is hereby acknowledged, the Company and
Employee agree as follows:

1.                      Issuance of Common Stock. On April 1, 2008 (the “Vesting
Date”), the Company shall issue to Employee ten (10) shares of common stock of
the Company (the “Shares”), which represents ten percent (10%) of the issued and
outstanding capital stock of the Company. On such date of issuance, the Company
shall deliver to Employee a stock certificate registered in Employee's name
representing the Shares and Employee shall sign a receipt acknowledging receipt
of the Shares.

2.                      Restricted Stock Award Agreement. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Company shall not issue the Shares to Employee unless and until
Employee signs a Restricted Stock Award Agreement, effective as of the date of
issuance of the Shares, that includes the transfer restrictions and other rights
and obligations of the Company and Employee as set forth herein. The Company
shall provide such Restricted Stock Award Agreement to Employee for review no
later than 30 days prior to the Vesting Date.
 
3.                      Sale of the Company. In  the event Aspen elects to sell
the capital stock of the Company, whether through a direct purchase or through a
merger or other type of transaction, or all or substantially all of the assets
of the Company, to a third party (a “Call Event”) on or after the Vesting Date,
the Company shall notify Employee of such sale at least ten days prior to the
closing of such sale and Employee shall sell or transfer the Shares to the
Company on or before the closing date.

(a)           In consideration for such sale or transfer of the Shares to the
Company,
Employee shall receive an amount of consideration (the “Transfer Price”) equal
to: the product product of (i) the sum of (X) twelve month trailing EBITDA for
the twelve month period ending on the last day of the month immediately
preceding the month in which such Call Event occurs, minus (Y) an amount equal
to maintenance capital expenditures for such twelve month period; multiplied by

As an example only, if the twelve month trailing EBIDTA for the relevant period
is $1,000,000 and maintenance capital expenditures for that period is $100,000,
the Transfer Price would be equal to:

($1,000,000 - $100,000) x 4.5 x 0.10 = $405,000

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                                                      Exhibit 10.3i
(b)           The consideration that Employee shall receive shall be in the same

of capital stock of the third party purchaser equal to the product of the
Transfer Price divided by the per share price Aspen receives for the sale of
such capital stock or assets. Employee shall deliver the stock certificate
representing the Shares to the Company on the date and at the location
designated by the Company and shall sign such agreements or other documents in
connection with the sale of the Shares to the Company as the Company reasonably
requests.

4.                      Conversion Upon an IPO. In the event AEG completes an
initial public offering (an “IPO”) of its common stock prior to the Vesting
Date, the Employee's right to receive the Shares shall automatically be
converted into the right to receive a number of shares of common stock of AEG
(which shares of common stock shall not be registered under the Securities Act
of 1933, as amended (the “Act”)) on the Vesting Date equal to the product of (i)
the Transfer Price that Employee would have received had a Call Event occurred
on the Vesting Date, divided by (ii) the closing price per share of the AEG
common stock on the Vesting Date. For purposes of this Agreement, an “initial
public offering” shall mean the initial firm commitment underwritten public
offering of the common stock of Aspen, immediately following which such common
stock is listed for trading on the New York Stock Exchange or for quotation on
the NASDAQ National Market System or other agreed, internationally recognized
stock exchange.

5.           Termination of Employment.

(a)           If prior to the Vesting Date (i) Employee ceases to be an employee
of AEG, Aspen or the Company, or ceases to provide services to the Company,
whether due to Employee's death, disability or voluntary or involuntary
termination, or (ii) the capital stock or all or substantially all of the assets
of the Company are sold or transferred to a third party that is not an affiliate
of AEG, this Agreement shall automatically terminate and have no further force
or effect and Employee shall not be entitled to receive any of the Shares or any
other consideration pursuant to this Agreement or in connection with the
termination of this Agreement.

(b)           If after the Vesting Date Employee ceases to be an employee of
AEG, Aspen or the Company, or ceases to provide services to the Company, whether
due to Employee's death, disability or voluntary or involuntary termination, the
Company shall right, but not the obligation, to purchase the Shares from the
Employee for a purchase price equal to the Transfer Price; provided that for
purposes of this Section 5(b), the Transfer Price shall be calculated using the
twelve month period ending on the last day of the month immediately preceding
the month in which Employee’s employment terminated.

6.                      Right of First Refusal. Employee agrees that in the
event Employee desires to
transfer any or all of her Shares to another party, Employee shall give prior
written notice to the
Company describing in reasonable detail the terms of such bona fide offer. For a
period of thirty (30) days after such notice of transfer is received by the
Company (the “Exercise Period”), the
Company shall have a right to repurchase all or any portion of the Shares to be
transferred at the
lower of the price set forth in the transfer notice or the Transfer Price, and
upon the terms set forth in the transfer notice (the “Company's First Refusal
Rights”). The Company shall exercise the Company First Refusal Rights by giving
Employee written notice of such intention prior to the expiration of the
Exercise Period.

7.                      Representations and Warranties of the Company. The
Company hereby represents and warrants to Employee that, as of the date hereof:

(a)           The Company is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and
