               (ii) You agree that all of your work product (whether created solely or jointly with others,
and including any intellectual property or moral rights therein), given, disclosed, created,
developed or prepared in connection with your employment with the Company (“Work Product”)
shall constitute “work made for hire” (as that term is defined under Section 101 of the U.S.
Copyright Act, 17 U.S.C. § 101), and shall be the sole and exclusive property of the Company. In
the event that any such Work Product is deemed not to be a “work made for hire,” or does not vest
by operation of law as the sole and exclusive property of the Company, you hereby irrevocably
assign, transfer and convey to the Company, exclusively and perpetually, all right, title and
interest which you may have or acquire in and to such Work Product throughout the world. The
Company and its affiliates or their designees shall have the exclusive right to make full and
complete use of, and make changes to all Work Product without restrictions or liabilities of any
kind, and you shall not have the right to use any such materials, other than within the legitimate
scope and purpose of your employment with the Company. You shall promptly disclose to the Company
the creation or existence of any Work Product and shall take whatever additional lawful action may
be necessary, and sign whatever documents the Company may require, in order to secure and vest in
the Company or its designee all right, title and interest in and to any Work Product and any
industrial or intellectual property rights therein (including full

- 7 -

 

cooperation in support of any Company applications for patents and copyright or trademark
registrations).

          (f) Breach of This Agreement and Equitable Relief.

               (i) You acknowledge and agree that a breach by you of this Paragraph 9 of this Agreement
shall be deemed a material breach of this Agreement and that remedies at law will be inadequate to
protect the Company and its affiliates in the event of such breach, and, without prejudice to any
other rights and remedies otherwise available to the Company, you agree to the granting of
injunctive relief in the Company’s favor in connection with any such breach or violation without
proof of irreparable harm, plus attorneys’ fees and costs to enforce these provisions. You
expressly waive any security that might otherwise be required in connection with such relief.

               (ii) You further acknowledge and agree that the Company’s obligation to pay you any amount or
provide you with any benefit or right pursuant to this Agreement is subject to your compliance with
your obligations under this Paragraph 9, and that in the event of a breach by you of any provision
of this Paragraph 9, you shall be deemed to have been terminated for cause. Similarly, if, at any
time subsequent to the execution of this Agreement, it is determined by the Company in good faith
that your employment could have been terminated for cause under section 9(b) of the Employment
Agreement, then, in accordance with Section 9(b) of the Employment Agreement, at the Company’s
discretion, you shall be deemed to have been terminated for cause. Upon your breach of any
provision of Paragraph 9 or any other deemed termination for cause in accordance with this
Paragraph 9(f), (a) you shall be obligated to immediately repay to the Company all amounts and
benefits theretofore paid to or received by you pursuant to this Agreement; (b) you shall forfeit
any further payments or benefits under this Agreement and (c) you shall promptly repay to the
Company the Fair Market Value (as defined in the applicable Award Agreements) of any shares of
common stock of Holdings (“Shares”) received upon the exercise on or after November 5, 2009
of any options you may have to purchase Shares (the “Options”), minus the applicable
exercise price. The Fair Market Value of such Shares shall be determined as of the date of
exercise of such Options. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if at the time of any breach by you of
any provision of Paragraph 9 or any other deemed termination for cause in accordance with this
Paragraph 9, any Options remain outstanding but unexercised, you agree that all such unexercised
Options shall automatically be forfeited. You further agree that the foregoing is appropriate for
any such breach inasmuch as actual damages cannot be readily calculated, the amount is fair and
reasonable under the circumstances, and the Company would suffer irreparable harm if any provision
of Paragraph 9 were breached.

          (g) Scope of Agreement. The parties hereby agree that the period, scope and
geographical areas of restriction imposed upon you by the provisions of this Paragraph 9 are fair
and reasonable and are reasonably required for the protection of the Company. In the event that
the provisions of this Paragraph 9 relating to the area of restriction, the period of restriction,
or the scope of restriction, shall be deemed to exceed the maximum area, period of time or scope
which a court of

- 8 -

 

competent jurisdiction would deem enforceable, said area, period of time and scope shall, for
purposes of this Agreement, be deemed to be the maximum area or period of time or scope which a
court of competent jurisdiction would deem valid and enforceable.

          (h) Toll Provision. In the event you shall violate any provision of this Paragraph 9
as to which there is a specific time period during which you are prohibited from taking certain
actions or from engaging in certain activities, as set forth in such provision, then, such
violation shall toll the running of such time period from the date of such violation until such
violation shall cease.

          (i) Confidentiality. In the event the Company applies to seal any papers produced or
filed in any judicial proceedings to preserve confidentiality, you hereby specifically agree not to
oppose such application and to use your best efforts to join such application.

          (j) Cooperation. You agree to cooperate with the Company in any transition activities
requested by the Company, and in the Company’s defense in any investigation, litigation or
administrative proceeding, including any charges or claims filed against it by current or former
employees regarding matters occurring during your employment. The Company shall fully reimburse
you for reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incident to such cooperation provided they are properly
documented.

          (k) Resignation upon Termination. This Agreement represents your resignation from all
board and board committee memberships and other positions which you hold with the Company, Holdings
and all of their subsidiaries and affiliates, effective as of the date hereof. You agree to
execute and return to the Company, within two (2) business days following the execution of this
Agreement, a letter in the form attached as Schedule 2, which separately confirms your resignation
from such positions.

          10. Company’s Right of Set-Off. If you have any outstanding debt, obligation, or other
liability representing an amount owing to the Company or any of its Affiliates at any time that you
are entitled to payment of Separation Benefits under this Agreement, then the Company or its
Affiliates, to the extent permitted by applicable law (including, without limitation, Section 409A
of the Code), may offset such amount so owing against the unpaid balance of the Separation Benefits
otherwise payable.

          11. Assignment; Severability.

          (a) You expressly agree that this Agreement shall be assignable by the Company to a successor
to any of the businesses of the Company and you hereby expressly consent to such assignment.

          (b) In the event that any one or more of the provisions of this Agreement shall be or become
invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the
remaining provisions contained herein shall not be affected thereby. In the event that one or more
terms or provisions of this Agreement are deemed invalid or unenforceable by the laws of Florida or
any other state or jurisdiction in which it is to be enforced, by reason of being vague or

- 9 -

 

unreasonable as to duration or geographic scope of activities restricted, or for any other
reason, the provision in question shall be immediately amended or reformed to the extent necessary
to make it valid and enforceable by the court of such jurisdiction charged with interpreting and/or
enforcing such provision. You agree and acknowledge that the provision in question, as so amended
or reformed, shall be valid and enforceable as though the invalid or unenforceable portion had
never been included herein.

          12. Other Claims. The existence of any claim or cause of action by you against the
Company, whether predicated upon this Agreement or otherwise, shall not constitute a defense to the
enforcement by the Company of the restrictive covenants set forth in this Agreement but shall be
claimed and litigated separately

          13. Entire Agreement and Waiver. Effective as of the Separation Date, this Agreement
(including all attachments and schedules hereto) constitutes the entire agreement between you and
the Company with respect to your termination of employment, and supersedes all other
correspondence, offers, proposals, promises, agreements or arrangements relating to the subject
matter contained herein, including without limitation, the Employment Agreement. The failure of
any party to at any time enforce any of the provisions of this Agreement shall not be deemed or
construed to be a waiver of any such provisions, nor in any way affect the validity of this
Agreement or any provision hereof or the right of either of the parties to thereafter enforce each
and every provision of this Agreement. You acknowledge that you have not relied on any
representation, promises, or agreements of any kind made in connection with the decision to sign
this Agreement, except for those set forth in this Agreement.

          14. No Modification. This Agreement may not be changed unless the changes are in
writing and signed by you and a proper representative of the Company.

          15. Governing Law. The terms of this Agreement shall for all purposes be enforced,
governed by, and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Florida without regard to
Florida’s conflict of laws principles, except to the extent governed by the Employee Retirement
Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA).

          16. Dispute Resolution.

          (a) In the case of any claim or dispute arising under or in connection with this
Agreement, you agree to attempt in good faith to resolve such claim or dispute informally
through discussions with appropriate Company personnel. If you believe your efforts are
unsuccessful, you shall submit your claim in writing to the Executive Vice President, Chief Human
Resources Officer, U.S. Restaurant Support Center, who will respond to you within twenty-one (21)
days from receiving your claim. If after completing the above procedures, you disagree with the
Vice President, Total Rewards’ determination, the Company and you agree that the dispute or claim
shall be resolved by final and binding arbitration before the American Arbitration Association
(“AAA”). The arbitration shall be held in Miami, Florida, and conducted in
accordance with AAA’s National Rules for the Resolution of Employment Disputes then in effect at
the time of

- 10 -

 

the arbitration, with the additional proviso that all steps necessary to ensure the
confidentiality of the proceedings and the arbitrator’s award will be added to the basic rule
requirements, except that (a) in the process of selecting an arbitrator, the parties may strike
names from AAA’s list of arbitrators only for good cause and (b) depositions, if permitted by the
arbitrator, shall be limited to a maximum of one (1) per party and to a maximum of four (4) hours
in duration. The arbitration shall not impair either party’s right to request injunctive or other
equitable relief in accordance with Paragraph 9 of this Agreement. Both parties expressly agree to
waive their right to have a circuit court determine the issue of attorneys’ fees pursuant to §
682.11, Fla. Stat. Judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court
having jurisdiction thereof. Both parties agree that no other forum other than a mutually agreed
upon one or the American Arbitration Association will be utilized to resolve any dispute and the
resort to any other forum is a breach of this Agreement.

          (b) Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to prevent either party from responding

Ladies and Gentlemen:

This is to advise you that, effective immediately, I hereby resign from each of the positions

Inc., Burger King Holdings, Inc. and any and all of their subsidiaries and affiliates.

Sincerely yours,

Russell B. Kleinexv10w1

Exhibit 10.1

Form of Standard Employee RSA Agreement

K12 INC. RESTRICTED STOCK AWARD AGREEMENT

     Pursuant to the Restricted Stock Award Grant Notice (the “Grant Notice”) to which this
Restricted Stock Award Agreement (the “Agreement”) is attached, K12 Inc., a Delaware corporation
(the “Company”) has granted to Participant the right to purchase the number of shares of Restricted
Stock under the 2007 Equity Incentive Award Plan, as amended from time to time (the “Plan”), as set
forth in the Grant Notice.

ARTICLE I.

GENERAL

     1.1 Definitions. All capitalized terms used in this Agreement without definition
shall have the meanings ascribed in the Plan and the Grant Notice.

     1.2 Incorporation of Terms of Plan. The Award is subject to the terms and conditions
of the Plan which are incorporated herein by reference. In the event of any inconsistency between
the Plan and this Agreement, the terms of the Plan shall control.

ARTICLE II.

AWARD OF RESTRICTED STOCK

     2.1 Award of Restricted Stock.

          (a) Award. In consideration of Participant’s agreement to remain in the service or
employ of the Company or one of its Subsidiaries, and for other good and valuable consideration,
including the non-competition covenant of the Participant set forth in Section 3.5 below, which the
Administrator has determined exceeds the aggregate par value of the Stock subject to the Award (as
defined below), as of the Grant Date, the Company issues to Participant the Award described in this
Agreement (the “Award”). The number of shares of Restricted Stock (the “Shares”) subject to the
Award is set forth in the Grant Notice. Participant is an Employee, Director or Consultant.

          (b) Book Entry Form. The Shares will be issued in uncertificated form.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, at the sole discretion of the Administrator, the Shares may be
issued in either (i) uncertificated form, with the Shares recorded in the name of Participant in
the books and records of the Company’s transfer agent with appropriate notations regarding the
restrictions on transfer imposed pursuant to this Agreement, and upon vesting and the satisfaction
of all conditions set forth in Section 2.2(d), the Company shall cause certificates representing
the Shares to be issued to Participant; or (ii) certificate form pursuant to the terms of Sections
2.1(c) and (d).

          (c) Legend. Any certificates representing Shares issued pursuant to this Agreement
shall, until all restrictions on transfer imposed pursuant to this Agreement lapse or shall have
been removed and new certificates are issued, bear the following legend (or such other legend as
shall be determined by the Administrator):

“THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE SUBJECT TO CERTAIN VESTING
REQUIREMENTS AND MAY BE SUBJECT TO FORFEITURE UNDER THE TERMS OF THAT CERTAIN
RESTRICTED STOCK AWARD AGREEMENT, DATED [                                         ___, 20___], BY AND BETWEEN K12
INC. AND THE REGISTERED OWNER OF SUCH SHARES, AND SUCH SHARES MAY

 

 

NOT BE, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, OFFERED, TRANSFERRED, SOLD, ASSIGNED, PLEDGED,
HYPOTHECATED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, EXCEPT PURSUANT TO
THE PROVISIONS OF SUCH AGREEMENT.”

          (d) Escrow. The Secretary of the Company or such other escrow holder as the
Administrator may appoint may retain physical custody of the certificates representing the Shares
until all of the restrictions on transfer imposed pursuant to this Agreement lapse or shall have
been removed; in such event Participant shall not retain physical custody of any certificates
representing unvested Shares issued to him.

     2.2 Restrictions.

          (a) Forfeiture. Any Award which is not vested as of the date Participant ceases to be
an employee of the Company or one of its Subsidiaries or other Eligible Individual (such as if the
Participant’s employment is terminated by the Company, subject to Section 2.2(c), or the
Participant voluntarily resigns his employment) shall thereupon be forfeited immediately and
without any further action by the Company. For purposes of this Agreement, “Restrictions” shall
mean the restrictions on sale or other transfer set forth in Section 3.2 and the exposure to
forfeiture set forth in this Section 2.2(a).

          (b) Vesting and Lapse of Restrictions. Subject to Section 2.2(a) and 2.2(c), the
Award shall vest and Restrictions shall lapse in accordance with the vesting schedule set forth on
the Grant Notice.

          (c) Acceleration of Vesting. Notwithstanding Sections 2.2(a) or 2.2(b) hereof, if the
Participant dies or the Participant’s employment with the Company or one of its Subsidiaries is
terminated by the Company due to the Participant’s Disability and the Participant incurs a
Termination of Service, the Award shall become fully vested and the Restrictions shall lapse as of
immediately prior to the date of the Participant’s Termination of Service, provided, however that
the Committee or any person or persons to whom the Committee has delegated its authority with
respect to the Award may, in its or their sole discretion, accelerate the vesting of all or a
portion of the Award if the Participant’s employment with the Company is terminated by the Company
without cause.

          (d) Tax Withholding; Conditions to Issuance of Certificates. Notwithstanding any
other provision of this Agreement (including without limitation Section 2.1(b)):

               (i) The Company shall have the right to (A) require payment by or on behalf of the
Participant, of all sums required by federal, state or local tax law to be withheld with respect to
the grant or vesting of the Award or the lapse of the Restrictions hereunder and (B) determine the
manner in which such payment shall be made, including, if approved by the Chief Executive Officer
of the Company in his or her discretion (or if the Participant is the Chief Executive Officer by
the Committee), the withholding of a portion of the vested Shares that have an aggregate market
value not in excess of the minimum federal, state and local income, employment and any other
applicable taxes required to be withheld, as determined on the date the Restrictions lapse.

               (ii) No new certificate shall be delivered to Participant or his legal representative unless
and until Participant or his legal representative shall have paid to the Company the full amount of
all federal and state withholding or other taxes applicable to the taxable income of Participant
resulting from the grant of Shares or the lapse or removal of the Restrictions.

A-2

 

               (iii) The Company shall not be required to issue or deliver any certificate or certificates
for any Shares prior to the fulfillment of all of the following conditions: (A) the admission of
the Shares to listing on all stock exchanges on which such Stock is then listed, (B) the completion
of any registration or other qualification of the Shares under any state or federal law or under
rulings or regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission or other governmental regulatory
body, which the Administrator shall, in its sole and absolute discretion, deem necessary and
advisable, (C) the obtaining of any approval or other clearance from any state or federal
governmental agency that the Administrator shall, in its absolute discretion, determine to be
necessary or advisable and (D) the lapse of any such reasonable period of time following the date
the Restrictions lapse as the Administrator may from time to time establish for reasons of
administrative convenience.

ARTICLE III.

OTHER PROVISIONS

     3.1 Section 83(b) Election. Participant understands that Section 83(a) of the Code
taxes as ordinary income the difference between the amount, if any, paid for the Shares and the
Fair Market Value of such Shares at the time the Restrictions on such Shares lapse. Participant
understands that, notwithstanding the preceding sentence, Participant may elect to be taxed at the
time of the Grant Date, rather that at the time the Restrictions lapse, by filing an election under
Section 83(b) of the Code (an “83(b) Election”) with the Internal Revenue Service within 30 days of
the Grant Date. In the event Participant files an 83(b) Election, Participant will recognize
ordinary income in an amount equal to the difference between the amount, if any, paid for the
Shares and the Fair Market Value of such Shares as of the Grant Date. Participant further
understands that an additional copy of such 83(b) Election form should be filed with his or her
federal income tax return for the calendar year in which the date of this Agreement falls.
Participant acknowledges that the foregoing is only a summary of the effect of United States
federal income taxation with respect to the award of the Shares hereunder, and does not purport to
be complete. PARTICIPANT FURTHER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THE COMPANY IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR FILING
PARTICIPANT’S 83(b) ELECTION, AND THE COMPANY HAS DIRECTED PARTICIPANT TO SEEK INDEPENDENT ADVICE
REGARDING THE APPLICABLE PROVISIONS OF THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE, THE INCOME TAX LAWS OF ANY
MUNICIPALITY, STATE OR FOREIGN COUNTRY IN WHICH PARTICIPANT MAY RESIDE, AND THE TAX CONSEQUENCES OF
PARTICIPANT’S DEATH.

     3.2 Restricted Stock Not Transferable. Prior to the lapsing of the Restrictions
pursuant to Section 2.2(b), no Shares or any interest or right therein or part thereof shall be
liable for the debts, contracts or engagements of Participant or his successors in interest or
shall be subject to disposition by transfer, alienation, anticipation, pledge, encumbrance,
assignment or any other means whether such disposition be voluntary or involuntary or by operation
of law by judgment, levy, attachment, garnishment or any other legal or equitable proceedings
(including bankruptcy), and any attempted disposition thereof shall be null and void and of no
effect; provided, however, that this Section 3.2 notwithstanding, with the consent of the
Administrator, the Shares may be transferred to certain persons or entities related to Participant,
including but not limited to members of Participant’s family, charitable institutions or trusts or
other entities whose beneficiaries or beneficial owners are members of Participant’s family or to
such other persons or entities as may be expressly approved by the Administrator, pursuant to any
such conditions and procedures the Administrator may require.

     3.3 Rights as Stockholder. Except as otherwise provided herein, upon the Grant Date
Participant shall have all the rights of a stockholder with respect to the Shares, subject to the
Restrictions herein, including the right to vote the Shares and the right to receive any cash or
stock dividends paid to or made with respect to the Shares; provided, however, that the Participant
shall not be entitled to receive

A-3

 

any dividends with respect to any Shares that are unvested as of the date of payment of such
dividends unless and until such shares become vested in accordance with Section 2.2. Any
dividends with respect to such unvested Shares shall be forfeited to the Company in the event such
Shares are forfeited. At the discretion of the Company, and prior to the delivery of Shares,
Participant may be required to execute a stockholders agreement in such form as shall be determined
by the Company.

     3.4 Not a Contract of Employment. Nothing in this Agreement or in the Plan shall
confer upon Participant any right to continue to serve as an Employee, Director, Consultant or
other service provider of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.

     3.5 Non-Competition. The Participant agrees that during the period in which the
Participant is an Eligible Individual and for a period of one (1) year following the Participant’s
Termination of Service, the Participant will not directly or indirectly, individually, or together
with or through any other person, firm, corporation or entity engage in, or be employed by, a
business or organization that renders the same or similar services as the Company or otherwise
competes with the Company. The Participant agrees that the Company would be irreparably harmed if
the provisions of this Section 3.5 are violated and, therefore, in the event of any actual or
threatened violation of this Section 3.5, the Company will be entitled to a temporary restraining
order and preliminary and permanent injunctive relief and to specifically enforce the terms and
provisions of this Section 3.5 without the necessity of posting bond or proving damages.

     3.6 Governing Law. The laws of the State of Delaware shall govern the
interpretation, validity, administration, enforcement and performance of the terms of this
Agreement regardless of the law that might be applied under principles of conflicts of laws.

     3.7 Conformity to Securities Laws. Participant acknowledges that the Plan and this
Agreement are intended to conform to the extent necessary with all provisions of the Securities Act
of 1933, as amended, and the Exchange Act, and any and all regulations and rules promulgated
thereunder by the Securities and Exchange Commission, including without limitation Rule 16b-3 under
the Exchange Act. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Plan shall be administered,
and the Awards are granted, only in such a manner as to conform to such laws, rules and
regulations. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Plan and this Agreement shall be
deemed amended to the extent necessary to conform to such laws, rules and regulations.

     3.8 Amendment, Suspension and Termination. To the extent permitted by the Plan, this
Agreement may be wholly or partially amended or otherwise modified, suspended or terminated at any
time or from time to time by the Administrator or the Board, provided, that, except as may
otherwise be provided by the Plan, no amendment, modification, suspension or termination of this
Agreement shall adversely effect the Award in any material way without the prior written consent of
Participant.

     3.9 Notices. Notices required or permitted hereunder shall be given in writing and
shall be deemed effectively given upon personal delivery or upon deposit in the United States mail
by certified mail, with postage and fees prepaid, addressed to Participant to his address shown in
the Company records, and to the Company at its principal executive office.

     3.10 Successors and Assigns. The Company may assign any of its rights under this
Agreement to single or multiple assignees, and this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of the
successors and assigns of the Company. Subject to the restrictions on transfer herein set forth,
this Agreement shall be binding upon Participant and his or her heirs, executors, administrators,
successors and assigns.

A-4

 

     3.11 Limitations Applicable to Section 16 Persons. Notwithstanding any other
provision of the Plan or this Agreement, if Participant is subject to Section 16 of the Exchange
Act, the Plan, the Award and this Agreement shall be subject to any additional limitations set
forth in any applicable exemptive rule under Section 16 of the Exchange Act (including any
amendment to Rule 16b-3 of the Exchange Act) that are requirements for the application of such
exemptive rule. To the extent permitted by applicable law, this Agreement shall be deemed amended
to the extent necessary to conform to such applicable exemptive rule.

          (a) Entire Agreement; Severability. The Plan, the Grant Notice and this Agreement
constitute the entire agreement of the parties and supersede in their entirety all prior
undertakings and agreements of the Company and Participant with respect to the subject matter
hereof. Every provision of this Agreement is intended to be severable from every other provision
of this Agreement. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be void or unenforceable, in
whole or in part, the remaining provisions will remain in full force and effect. If any provision
of this Agreement is held to be unreasonable or excessive in scope or duration, that provision will
be deemed to be reformed so that it will be enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by law.

     3.12 Limitation on Participant’s Rights. Participation in the Plan confers no rights
or interests other than as herein provided. This Agreement creates only a contractual obligation
on the part of the Company as to amounts payable and shall not be construed as creating a trust.
Neither the Plan nor any underlying program, in and of itself, has any assets. The Participant
shall have only the rights of a general unsecured creditor of the Company with respect to amounts
credited and benefits payable, if any, with respect to the Shares issuable hereunder.
