      converted into electronic form (such as scanned into PDF format), or an electronically signed Communication converted into another format, for transmission, delivery and/or retention. The Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders may, at its
      option, create one or more copies of any Communication in the form of an imaged Electronic Record (“Electronic Copy”), which shall be deemed created in the ordinary course of the
      such Person’s business, and destroy the original paper document.  All Communications in the form of an Electronic Record, including an Electronic Copy, shall be considered an original for all purposes, and shall have the same legal effect, validity
      and enforceability as a paper record.  Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Administrative Agent is under no obligation to accept an Electronic Signature in any form or in any format unless expressly agreed to by the
      Administrative Agent pursuant to procedures approved by it; provided, further, without limiting the foregoing, (a) to the extent the Administrative Agent has agreed to accept such Electronic Signature, the Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders
      shall be entitled to rely on any such Electronic Signature purportedly given by or on behalf of any Loan Party without further verification and (b) upon the request of the Administrative Agent or any Lender, any Electronic Signature shall be promptly
      followed by such manually executed counterpart.  For purposes hereof, “Electronic Record” and “Electronic Signature”
      shall have the meanings assigned to them, respectively, by 15 USC §7006, as it may be amended from time to time.

    (p)       Section 11.25 (Acknowledgement and Consent to Bail-In
        of EEA Financial Institutions) of the Existing Credit Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:

    

    

    11.25     Acknowledgement and Consent to Bail-In of Affected Financial Institutions.

    

    

    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding
      among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any Lender that is an Affected Financial Institution arising under any Loan Document, to the extent such liability is unsecured, may be subject to the Write-Down and
      Conversion Powers of the applicable Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by: (a) the application of any Write-Down and Conversion
      Powers by the applicable Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder which may be payable to it by any Lender that is an Affected Financial Institution; and (b) the effects of any Bail-in Action on any such liability, including, if
      applicable: (i) a reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such liability; (ii) a conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such Affected Financial Institution, its parent entity,
      or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this Agreement or any other
      Loan Document; or (iii) the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of the applicable Resolution Authority.

    

    

    (q)       A new Section 11.26 (Acknowledgment Regarding any
        Supported QFCs) is hereby added to the Existing Credit Agreement to read as follows:

    

    

    11.26     Acknowledgement Regarding Any Supported QFCs.

    

    

    To the extent that the Loan Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for any Swap Contract or any
      other agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support, “QFC Credit Support”, and each such QFC, a “Supported QFC”), the parties acknowledge and agree as follows with
      respect to the resolution power of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (together with the regulations promulgated thereunder,
      the “U.S. Special Resolution Regimes”) in respect of such Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable notwithstanding that the Loan Documents and
      any Supported QFC may in fact be stated to be governed by the laws of the State of New York and/or of the United States or any other state of the United States):   In the event a Covered Entity that is party to a Supported QFC (each, a “Covered Party”) becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer of such Supported QFC and the benefit of such QFC Credit Support (and any
      interest and obligation in or under such Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support, and any rights in property securing such Supported QFC or such QFC Credit Support) from such Covered Party will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would
      be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support (and any such interest, obligation and rights in property) were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. In the
      event a Covered Party or a BHC Act Affiliate of a Covered Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under the Loan Documents that might otherwise apply to such Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support
      that may be exercised against such Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and the Loan Documents were governed by the
      laws of the United States or a state of the United States. Without limitation of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that rights and remedies of the parties with respect to a Defaulting Lender shall in no event affect the rights of any Covered
      Party with respect to a Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support.

    SECTION 2.     Consent.  Subject to the conditions to effectiveness set forth below, each of the Lenders party hereto hereby consents to any Pre-Closing Acquisition Debt Issuer
        incurring the Pre-Closing Notes in the manner described in, and subject to the terms of, this Amendment.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, this Amendment is not a consent or approval by the Lenders of either (A) the Concord Acquisition (or
        any other Acquisition of Concord) or (B) the Pre-Closing Acquisition Debt remaining outstanding after the Pre-Closing Acquisition Termination Date.

    

    

    SECTION 3.     Effectiveness.  This Amendment shall become binding and effective on the parties hereto on the date hereof (such date, the “Effective Date”) upon

        the Administrative Agent of executed counterparts from (A) each of the Loan Parties, (B) the Administrative Agent, (C) the Required Lenders  and (D) the Required Pro Rata Facilities Lenders (each such lender under clause (C) or (D), a “Consenting Lender”);

    

    

    (b)       payment by Adtalem to BofA Securities, Inc. and to
        the Administrative Agent, for itself and for the account of Lenders executing this Amendment, of all fees set forth in any fee letter by and among Adtalem and BofA Securities in connection with this Amendment and required to be paid on the
        Effective Date; and

    
      11

      
        


    

    (c)       payment by Adtalem of all Attorney Costs of the
        Administrative Agent to the extent invoiced at least two Business Days prior to or on the Effective Date.

    

    

    SECTION 4.     Reaffirmation.

    

    

    (a)       Each Loan
        Party, by its signature below, affirms and confirms (a) its obligations under each of the Loan Documents to which it is a party and (b) its guarantee of the Obligations, all as provided in the Loan Documents, and acknowledges and agrees that such
        guarantee continues in full force and effect in respect of such Obligations under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents as amended hereby.

    

    

    (b)       Each Loan
        Party hereby (A) confirms that each Loan Document to which it is a party or is otherwise bound and all Collateral encumbered thereby will continue to secure to the fullest extent possible in accordance with the Loan Documents the payment and
        performance of the Secured Obligations, (B) confirms its respective grant to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the holders of the Secured Obligations of the security interest in all of such Loan Party’s right, title and interest in, to
        and under all Collateral, in each case whether now existing or owned, acquired or arising hereafter, as collateral security for the prompt and complete payment and performance in full when due, whether at by lapse of time, acceleration, mandatory
        prepayment or otherwise, of all applicable Secured Obligations, subject to the terms contained in the applicable Loan Documents, and (C) confirms its respective pledges, grants of security interests, Liens and other obligations, as applicable,
        under and subject to the terms of each of the Loan Documents to which it is a party.

    

    

    SECTION 5.     Representations and Warranties.  To induce the other parties hereto to enter into this Amendment, Adtalem and each other Loan Party hereby represents and warrants to the
        Administrative Agent and the Lenders that, on and as of the date hereof:

    

    

    (a)       The
        execution, delivery and performance by each Loan Party of this Amendment has been duly authorized by all necessary corporate or other organizational action, and does not (a) contravene the terms of such Loan Party’s Organization Documents; (b)
        conflict with or result in any material breach or contravention of, or the creation of any Lien (other than Liens under the Loan Documents) under, (i) any Contractual Obligation to which such Loan Party is a party or (ii) any order, injunction,
        writ or decree of any Governmental Authority or any arbitral award to which such Loan Party or its property is subject; or (c) violate any Law in any material respect.

    

    

    (b)       No
        approval, consent, exemption, authorization, or other action by, or notice to, or filing with, any Governmental Authority or any other Person not previously obtained or made is necessary or required in connection with the execution, delivery or
        performance by, or enforcement against, any Loan Party of this Amendment except such approvals, consents, exemptions, authorizations or other actions (i) as have been made or obtained, as applicable, and are in full force and effect or (ii) are
        identified pursuant to conditions set forth in the Concord Commitment Letter (as defined in Section 1 hereof) as required to be obtained on or prior to the Closing Date (as defined in the Concord Commitment Letter).

    
      12

      
        


    

    (c)       This
        Amendment has been duly executed and delivered by each Loan Party that is party hereto. This Amendment constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of each Loan Party, enforceable against such Loan Party in accordance with its terms, except as
        such enforceability may be limited by (i) applicable Debtor Relief Laws and (ii) general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law).

    

    

    (d)       Both
        immediately before and immediately after giving effect to this Amendment on the date hereof, the representations and warranties of Adtalem and each other Loan Party contained in Article V of the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document are true
        and correct in all material respects (except, if a qualifier relating to materiality, Material Adverse Effect or a similar concept applies to any representation or warranty, such representation or warranty shall be required to be true and correct
        in all respects), except to the extent that such representations and warranties specifically refer to an earlier date, in which case they shall be true and correct in all material respects (except, if a qualifier relating to materiality, Material
        Adverse Effect or a similar concept applies to any representation or warranty, such representation or warranty shall be required to be true and correct in all respects) as of such earlier date.

    

    

    (e)       No Default or Event of Default exists, or will
        result from the execution of this Amendment on the Effective Date.

    

    

    SECTION 6.     Fees; Costs and Expenses.  Adtalem agrees to reimburse the Administrative Agent for its reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses in connection
        with this Amendment, including the fees, charges and disbursements of Moore & Van Allen PLC, in accordance with Section 11.4 of the Credit Agreement.

    

    

    SECTION 7.     Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent.  Each Consenting Lender represents to the Administrative Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon the
        Administrative Agent, any Lead Arranger, any other Lender or any of their Related Parties, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis, appraisal of and investigation into the business,
        operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Loan Parties and their Affiliates and made its own decisions to enter into this Amendment. Each Consenting Lender also represents that it will, independently and
        without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, any Lead Arranger or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in
        taking or not taking action under this Amendment, the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

    

    

    SECTION 8.     Counterparts.  This Amendment may be executed in one or more
        counterparts (and by different parties hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.  Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of
        this Amendment by facsimile or other electronic imaging means shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Amendment. This Amendment, together with the other Loan Documents, comprises the complete and integrated
        agreement of the parties on the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersedes all prior agreements, written or oral, on such subject matter. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Amendment by facsimile or other
        electronic imaging means (including PDF) shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Amendment. Any signature to this Amendment may be delivered by facsimile, electronic mail (including pdf) or any electronic signature
        complying with the U.S. federal ESIGN Act of 2000 or the New York Electronic Signature and Records Act or other transmission method and any counterpart so delivered shall be deemed to have been duly and validly delivered and be valid and effective
        for all purposes to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law. For the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing also applies to any amendment, extension or renewal of this Amendment.

    
      13

      
        


    

    SECTION 9.     Severability.  If any provision of this Amendment, the Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, (a) the
        legality, validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Amendment, the Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents shall not be affected or impaired thereby and (b) the parties shall endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace
        the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the  economic  effect  of which  comes as close  as possible  to that  of the illegal, invalid  or unenforceable provisions. The invalidity of a provision in a particular
        jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

    

    

    SECTION 10.   Governing Law.  THIS AMENDMENT AND ANY CLAIMS, CONTROVERSY, DISPUTE OR
        CAUSE OF ACTION (WHETHER IN CONTRACT OR TORT OR OTHERWISE) BASED UPON, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AMENDMENT AND THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY AND THEREBY SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF
        NEW YORK APPLICABLE TO AGREEMENTS MADE AND TO BE PERFORMED ENTIRELY WITHIN SUCH STATE.

    

    

    SECTION 11.   Submission to Jurisdiction. EACH LOAN PARTY IRREVOCABLY AND
        UNCONDITIONALLY AGREES THAT IT WILL NOT COMMENCE ANY ACTION, LITIGATION OR PROCEEDING OF ANY KIND OR DESCRIPTION, WHETHER IN LAW OR EQUITY, WHETHER IN CONTRACT OR IN TORT OR OTHERWISE, AGAINST THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, ANY LENDER OR ANY RELATED
        PARTY OF THE FOREGOING IN ANY WAY RELATING TO THIS AMENDMENT, THE CREDIT AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS RELATING HERETO OR THERETO, IN ANY FORUM  OTHER  THAN THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK SITTING IN NEW YORK COUNTY
        AND OF THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT OF THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK, AND ANY APPELLATE COURT FROM ANY THEREOF, AND EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY SUBMITS TO THE JURISDICTION OF SUCH COURTS AND AGREES THAT ALL
        CLAIMS IN RESPECT OF ANY SUCH ACTION, LITIGATION OR PROCEEDING MAY BE HEARD AND DETERMINED IN SUCH NEW YORK STATE COURT OR, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN SUCH FEDERAL COURT. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO AGREES THAT A FINAL
        JUDGMENT IN ANY SUCH ACTION, LITIGATION OR PROCEEDING SHALL BE CONCLUSIVE AND MAY BE ENFORCED IN OTHER JURISDICTIONS BY SUIT ON THE JUDGMENT OR IN ANY OTHER MANNER PROVIDED BY LAW. NOTHING IN THIS AMENDMENT OR IN ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT SHALL
        AFFECT ANY RIGHT THAT THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY LENDER MAY OTHERWISE HAVE TO BRING ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS AMENDMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT AGAINST ANY LOAN PARTY OR ITS PROPERTIES IN THE COURTS OF ANY JURISDICTION.

    
      14

      
        


    

    SECTION 12.     WAIVER OF VENUE. EACH LOAN PARTY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY OBJECTION THAT IT MAY NOW OR
        HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OF ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AMENDMENT, THE CREDIT AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT IN ANY COURT REFERRED TO IN SECTION 11 HEREOF. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY
        IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE DEFENSE OF AN INCONVENIENT FORUM TO THE MAINTENANCE OF SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT.

    

    

    SECTION 13.     SERVICE OF PROCESS.  EACH PARTY HERETO IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO SERVICE OF PROCESS IN THE MANNER PROVIDED FOR NOTICES IN SECTION 11.16(B) OF THE CREDIT AGREEMENT.  NOTHING
        IN THIS AMENDMENT WILL AFFECT THE RIGHT OF ANY PARTY HERETO TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.

    

    

    SECTION 14.     No Advisory or Fiduciary Responsibility.  In connection with all aspects of each transaction contemplated hereby (including in connection with any amendment, waiver or
        other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document), each Loan Party acknowledges and agrees, and acknowledges its Affiliates’ understanding, that: (i)(A) the arranging and other services regarding this Amendment provided by the Administrative
        Agent, the Lead Arrangers and the Lenders are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Loan Parties and their respective Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent, the Lead Arrangers and the Lenders, on the other hand, (B)
        each Loan Party has consulted its own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent it has deemed appropriate, and (C) each Loan Party is capable of evaluating, and understands and accepts, the terms, risks and conditions of the
        transactions contemplated hereby, by the Credit Agreement and by the other Loan Documents; (ii) (A) each of the Administrative Agent, the Lead Arrangers and the Lenders is and has been acting solely as a principal and, except as expressly agreed in
        writing by the relevant parties, has not been, is not, and will not be acting as an advisor, agent or fiduciary for any Loan Party or any of their respective Affiliates, or any other Person and (B) none of the Administrative Agent, any Lead
        Arranger or any Lender has any obligation to any Loan Party or any of their respective Affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby except those obligations expressly set forth herein, in the Credit Agreement and in the other
        Loan Documents; and (iii) the Administrative Agent, the Lead Arrangers and the Lenders and their respective Affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of the Loan Parties and their
        respective Affiliates, and none of the Administrative Agent, any Lead Arranger or any Lender has any obligation to disclose any of such interests to any Loan Party or any of their respective Affiliates. To the fullest extent permitted by law, each
        Loan Party hereby waives and releases any claims that it may have against the Administrative Agent, the Lead Arrangers and the Lenders with respect to any breach or alleged breach of agency or fiduciary duty in connection with any aspect of any
        transaction contemplated hereby.

    
      15

      
        


    

    SECTION 15.     Headings.  The headings of the sections hereof are
        provided for convenience only and shall not in any way affect the meaning or construction of any provision of this Amendment.

    

    

    SECTION 16.     Effect of Amendment.  Except as expressly set forth herein, this
        Amendment shall not by implication or otherwise limit, impair, constitute a waiver of, or otherwise affect the rights and remedies of the Lenders, the Administrative Agent or the Loan Parties under the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document,
        and shall not alter, modify, amend or in any way affect any of the terms, conditions, obligations, covenants or agreements contained in the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document, all of which are ratified and affirmed in all respects and
        shall continue in full force and effect. Nothing herein shall be deemed to entitle any Loan Party to a consent to, or a waiver, amendment, modification or other change of, any of the terms, conditions, obligations, covenants or agreements contained
        in the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document in similar or different circumstances.  This Amendment shall apply and be effective only with respect to the matters set forth herein.  After the date hereof, any reference to the Credit Agreement
        shall mean the Credit Agreement, as modified hereby.

    

    

    SECTION 17.     Loan Document.  This Amendment shall be a Loan Document for all purposes of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents.
