Dear Harry:

It gives me great pleasure to confirm your employment with K12 Services Inc., a Delaware
corporation (the “Company”), beginning May 5, 2010 (the “Start Date”). Once countersigned by you,
this letter shall constitute a binding agreement (the “Agreement”) between you (the “Executive”)
and the Company, effective as of the date of this letter set forth above (the “Effective Date”).
This Agreement is contingent upon successful completion of our standard background check(s).

	1.	 	Employment. The Company hereby employs Executive on the terms and conditions set forth in
this Agreement and Executive hereby accepts such employment.
Executive shall be employed as Executive Vice President of the Company as of the Start Date and
will be appointed by the Board of Directors at its first meeting
after Executive’s start date to serve as
Chief Financial Officer reporting to the Chief Executive
Officer, Ronald J. Packard. Executive shall perform such duties and have such responsibilities
as are normally commensurate with Executive’s position, including such other duties as are
reasonably assigned to Executive from time to time. Executive agrees that the Company shall be

Executive’s responsibilities under this Agreement.
	 
	2.	 	Salary. Executive’s semi-monthly salary during the first year of employment from the Start
Date shall be $16,666.67, which equates to $400,000.00 annually (the “Base Salary”), subject
to standard payroll deductions. The Base Salary shall be paid on the Company’s regular
payroll dates in accordance with the Company’s normal payroll practices. Executive’s Base
Salary shall be reviewed annually, and the Compensation Committee and principal executive
officer shall determine, in their sole and absolute discretion, whether to grant Executive any
increases to the Base Salary based on the performance of Executive and the Company.
	 
	3.	 	Performance Bonus. Executive will be eligible to receive an annual end of year bonus (the

Start Date, of Executive’s Base Salary for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2010, and for each
year thereafter during Executive’s tenure at the Company, and subject to the sole and absolute
discretion of the Compensation Committee. Executive’s annual bonus shall be determined under
the same incentive compensation plans applicable to all senior executives. Any Performance
Bonus shall be paid in accordance with the terms of the Company’s bonus plan, but in any event
within the period required by Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended
(the “Code”) such that it qualifies as a “short-term deferral” pursuant to Treasury Regulation
Section 1.409A-1(b)(4).
	 
	4.	 	Stock Options. The Company hereby agrees to enter into a Stock Option Agreement with
Executive following the Start Date which shall grant to Executive (subject to certain
conditions) an option to purchase up to one hundred thousand (100,000) shares of the Common
Stock of the Company at an exercise price equal to the closing price for a share of Common
Stock of the Company on the New York Stock Exchange on the date the Compensation Committee
approves the grant, and which shall be made pursuant to the K12 Inc. 2007 Equity Incentive
Award Plan (the “Option”). The Compensation Committee shall meet no later than its next
regular meeting, scheduled for May 19, 2010, to grant the Option.
	 
	 	 	The Option is time-based and will vest and become exercisable over four (4) years, with

on the one-year anniversary of the Start Date and the remaining seventy-five percent (75%) of
the shares covered by the Option vesting and

such event.
	 
	5.	 	Restricted Stock Award. The Company hereby agrees to enter into a Restricted Stock Award
(“RSA”) Agreement with Executive following the Start Date, which shall grant to Executive
twenty-five thousand (25,000) shares of the Common Stock of the Company. The Compensation
Committee shall meet no later than its next regular meeting, scheduled for May 19, 2010, to
grant the RSA. . Upon approval, you will receive an RSA Agreement which sets forth the terms
and conditions applicable to your grant, including the vesting schedule for your RSAs.
	 
	6.	 	Personal Time Off. Executive shall be entitled to twenty (20) days of paid vacation time off
and two (2) days of paid personal time off during each year of your employment. The number of
personal days off will be pro-rated in the first year of employment based on the Start Date.
Executive will accrue vacation time throughout the calendar year and will receive the two (2)
personal days on the first day of January of each year of employment. Executive will be able

subject to change or deletion at the discretion of the Company.

expenses to commute to and from your home in Connecticut.
	 
	9.	 	Relocation Assistance. You will be eligible for full reimbursement upon receipts for
physically moving all belongings from Connecticut to a residence in the Washington, DC Metro
area. K12 will also reimburse you in calendar year 2011 for all closing costs associated with
the purchase of a home in the Washington, DC Metro area, provided that the closing costs are
incurred prior to the end of calendar year 2011. In the event a closing does not occur in
calendar year 2011, Company shall work with Executive to ensure reimbursement consistent with
the requirements of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code.
	 
	10.	 	Benefits (Health and Welfare Plans). Executive will be eligible to participate in such
benefit plans as may be adopted from time to time by the Company on the same basis as
similarly situated employees, including participation in any senior-level executive benefit
plans that may be adopted by the Company. Executive’s participation shall be subject to: (i)
the terms of the applicable plan documents; (ii) generally applicable Company policies; and
(iii) the discretion of the Board of Directors of the Company or any administrative or other
committee provided for in, or contemplated by, such plan or programs. These plans and
programs are subject to change or deletion at the discretion of the Company.

 

 

	11.	 	Retirement Benefits. K12 Services Inc. offers a 401(k) retirement plan, with a Company match of
twenty-five percent (25%) up to four percent (4%) percent of Executive’s contribution, annually.
Executive will be automatically enrolled at a rate of three percent (3%) of Executive’s monthly
paycheck, to be withheld, pretax, and deposited into Executive’s 401(k) retirement plan account.
Executive may increase, decrease, or opt-out of 401(k) retirement plan withholding at any time.
Please contact your assigned HR Generalist for the documentation needed to make a change.
	 
	12.	 	Holidays. Executive will be eligible for paid holidays in accordance with the Company’s
holiday policy and schedule, as may be amended by the Company from time to time at the sole
discretion of the Company.
	 
	13.	 	Employment at Will: Termination.

	 	13.1.	 	Employment at Will. Executive’s employment with the Company will be on an “at will”
basis, meaning that Executive’s employment is not for a specified period of time and can be
terminated by Executive or the Company at any time, with or without cause, and with or
without notice.
	 
	 	13.2.	 	Termination by Company for Cause. The Company may terminate this Agreement at any
time, effective immediately, for Cause, which shall be defined as: (i) a Willful and
continued material failure to perform Executive’s duties under this Agreement in a
satisfactory manner (other than as a result of total or partial incapacity due to physical
or mental illness or Disability, as defined in Section 13.3 below), where Willful means,
when applied to any action or omission made by Executive, that Executive did so without a
good faith belief that such action or omission was in, or was not contrary to, the best
interests of the Company; (ii) acts of dishonesty, fraud, embezzlement, misrepresentation,
and misappropriation involving the Company or any of its affiliates; (iii) unprofessional
conduct which may adversely affect the reputation of the Company and/or its relationship
with its customers, employees or suppliers ; and (iv) a conviction of, or entry of a guilty
plea or no contest to, any crime involving moral turpitude or dishonesty (collectively
“Cause”). In the event of termination of this Agreement for Cause, Executive shall
immediately be paid all accrued Base Salary, all accrued but unused PTO and any reasonable
and necessary business expenses properly incurred by Executive in connection with the
duties hereunder, all through the date of termination. All stock options covered by the
Option shall expire at the date of termination for any of the above-enumerated reasons to
terminate for Cause. In addition, the parties’ obligations hereunder, except as set forth
in the attached K12 Employee Confidentiality, Proprietary Rights and
Non-Solicitation Agreement, K12 Agreement to Arbitrate, and Sections 13 and 15 of this
Agreement, shall terminate.
	 
	 	13.3.	 	Termination upon Disability. Executive’s employment with the Company shall terminate
upon the Disability of Executive. In the event of such termination, the Company shall pay
to Executive any unpaid compensation to the extent earned and payable as of the date of
termination. As used herein, the term “Disability” means a physical or mental disability
that renders Executive unable to perform Executive’s normal duties for the Company for a
period of ninety (90) or more days as determined in the good faith judgment of the
Compensation Committee or the Board of Directors of the Company. If Executive disagrees
with the good faith determination of Disability, the matter shall be submitted to
arbitration pursuant to the K12 Agreement to Arbitrate, which is incorporated herein by
reference as provided in Section 15.1 of this Agreement.
	 
	 	13.4.	 	Termination by Company without Cause. The Company may terminate Executive’s
employment and this Agreement at any time, effective immediately, without Cause. In the
event that the Company terminates Executive’s employment and this Agreement without Cause,
Executive shall be paid immediately (except as noted) all accrued Base Salary, all accrued
but unused PTO, and any reasonable and necessary business expenses properly incurred by
Executive in connection with Executive’s duties hereunder, all through the date of
termination, as well as, provided that such termination of employment constitutes a
“separation from service” with the Company as such term is defined in Treasury Regulation

 

 

	 	 	 	Section 1.409A-1(h) and any successor provision thereto (a “Separation from Service”), the
severance pay set forth in Section 13.5.2 below. In addition, the parties’ obligations
hereunder, except as set forth in the attached K12 Employee Confidentiality, Proprietary
Rights and Non-Solicitation Agreement, K12 Agreement to Arbitrate and Sections 13 and 15 of
this Agreement, shall terminate.
	 
	 	13.5.	 	Termination by Employee. In the event of termination of this Agreement by Executive
other than for Good Reason (as defined in Section 13.5.1 below), Executive shall not be
entitled to any salary, bonus, benefits, severance pay or other remuneration after the
effective date of termination, other than the payment for accrued but unused PTO. In
addition, the parties’ obligations hereunder, except as set forth in the attached K12
Employee Confidentiality, Proprietary Rights and Non-Solicitation Agreement, K12
Agreement to Arbitrate and Sections 13 and 15 of this Agreement, shall terminate.

	 	13.5.1.	 	In the event that Executive resigns his or her employment and terminates this
Agreement for Good Reason, then, provided that such resignation constitutes a
Separation from Service, Executive shall be entitled to the severance pay set forth in
Section 13.5.2 below. In addition, the parties’ obligations hereunder, except as set
forth in the attached K12 Employee Confidentiality, Proprietary Rights and
Non-Solicitation Agreement, K12 Agreement to Arbitrate and Sections 13 and
15 of this Agreement, shall terminate. Good Reason shall be defined as any material
breach of this Agreement by the Company which is not cured within sixty (60) days after
written notice thereof from Executive in the manner provided in Section 15.6 of this
Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Executive may not resign his or her
employment for Good Reason unless (i) Executive provides the Company prior written
notice of his or her intent to resign for Good Reason within ninety (90) days of the
initial existence of any condition constituting Good Reason, (ii) the Company is
provided with a period of at least sixty (60) days to remedy such condition and does
not remedy the condition within such sixty (60) day period and (iii) Executive’s
termination of employment occurs no later than one hundred and eighty (180) days after
the initial existence of the condition constituting Good Reason.
	 
	 	13.5.2.	 	Effect of Termination (Severance Pay). Upon termination of Executive’s employment
and this Agreement by the Company pursuant to Section 13.4 or by Executive pursuant to
Section 13.5.1 above, and provided that such termination constitutes a Separation from
Service and provided further that Executive executes and does not revoke a general
release of claims satisfactory to the Company within thirty (30) days following the
date of termination, Executive shall be entitled to twelve (12) months of severance pay
at the then-existing Base Salary, payable in equal installments at the same time and in
the same manner as such Base Salary had been paid prior to such termination; provided
that any payments required to be made prior to the thirtieth (30th) day
following the date of termination of employment (the “First Pay Date”) shall be paid in
a single lump sum on the first regularly scheduled payroll date on or following the
First Pay Date. For purposes of Section 409A of the Code (including, without
limitation, for purposes of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-2(b) (iii)), each
payment that Executive may be eligible to receive under this Agreement shall be treated
as a separation and distinct payment.

 

 

	14.	 	Other Conditions of Employment.

	 	14.1.	 	Employee Confidentiality, Proprietary Rights and Non-Solicitation; Agreement to
Arbitrate; and Non-Competition. Executive’s employment is contingent upon the execution of
the enclosed K12 Employee Confidentiality, Proprietary Rights and Non-Solicitation
Agreement and K12 Agreement to Arbitrate, at or before the Start Date. In addition, during
the period in which Executive is receiving any compensation from the Company (including and
no less than the severance period) and for a twelve-month period thereafter, Executive
shall not engage in, or be employed by, a business or organization that renders the same
or similar services as K12 or otherwise competes with the Company or its business. In
applying this non-competition provision, the Company will not unreasonably withhold its
consent for future employment with entities that are not direct competitors or offer
substantially the same or similar services as the Company.
	 
	 	14.2.	 	Immigration Reform and Control Act of 1986. Executive’s employment is contingent upon
satisfying the requirements for employment in the United States. Within three (3) days of
the Start Date, and thereafter if the law requires, Executive shall furnish the Company
with all necessary documentation that will satisfy the requirements of the Immigration
Reform and Control Act of 1986.
	 
	 	14.3.	 	Policies and Procedures. Executive’s employment is subject to the Company’s personnel
policies and procedures as they may be interpreted, adopted, revised or deleted from time
to time in the Company’s sole discretion. Notwithstanding the general applicability of such
policies, the Company hereby agrees that Executive shall be afforded reasonable additional
flexibility regarding the Company’s core business work hours and use of the Company’s
apartment as provided in Section 8 of this Agreement, although Company reserves the right
in its absolute discretion to terminate such use of the Company’s apartment at the time of
relocation, termination of employment or other reason not in conflict with the purpose of
Section 8 of this Agreement.

Employee Confidentiality, Proprietary Rights and Non-Solicitation Agreement, and K12

attempted assignment by Executive in violation of this covenant shall be null and void.

 

 

	 	15.4. 	 	Severability. 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 of this Agreement shall not be affected thereby,
and all such remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect.
	 
	 	15.5.	 	Waiver. The failure of either party to insist on strict compliance with any of the

other instance.
	 
	 	15.6.	 	Notices. All notices, demands, or requests provided for or permitted to be given

	19.	 	Representations by Executive: Executive represents and warrants that:

     (a) Executive is free to enter into and perform each of the terms and conditions
of this Agreement. Executive is not subject to any agreement, judgment, order or
restriction that would be violated by Executive being employed by the Company or that in
any way restricts the services that may be rendered by Executive for the Company.
Executive’s execution of this Agreement and performance of Executive’s obligations under
this Agreement does not and will not violate or breach any other agreement between
Executive and any other person or entity. In addition, Executive has disclosed to the
Company the educational and religious institutions to which Executive has made
charitable contributions and donated his services prior to entering into this Agreement,
and the Company has determined that a continuation of those activities after execution
of this Agreement, absent a material change in the status of those institutions as they
relate to the Company, is consistent with the Company’s Code of Business Conduct and
Ethics.

 

 

     (b) Executive has carefully considered the nature and extent of the restrictions
and covenants in this Agreement and Executive agrees that they will not prevent
Executive from earning a livelihood after employment with the Company and that they are
fair, reasonable and necessary to protect and maintain the proprietary interests,
goodwill and other legitimate business interests of the Company in view of the following
facts: (i) Executive will hold a position of confidence and trust with the Company as a
result of Executive’s employment with the Company, access to confidential financial and
other information, and relationship with the customers, suppliers and other employees of
the Company, (ii) it would be impossible for Executive to be employed or engaged in a
directly competitive business to that of the Company as described in Section 14.1 of
this Agreement without inevitably using the Company’s proprietary information, and (iii)
Executive has broad skills that will permit gainful employment in many areas and
businesses outside the scope of the Company’s business.

     (c) Executive acknowledges that but for the above representations and warranties
of Executive; the Company would not employ Executive or enter into this Agreement.

	20.	 	Section 409A.

     (a) Compliance. In the event that following the date hereof the Company or
Executive reasonably determines that any compensation or benefits payable under this
Agreement may be subject to Section 409A of the Code, the Company and Executive shall
work together to adopt such amendments to this Agreement or adopt other policies or
procedures (including amendments, policies and procedures with retroactive effect), or
take any other commercially reasonable actions necessary or appropriate to (x) exempt
the compensation and benefits payable under this Agreement from Section 409A of the Code
and/or preserve the intended tax treatment of the compensation and benefits provided
with respect to this Agreement or (y) comply with the requirements of Section 409A of
the Code and related Department of Treasury guidance.

     (b) In-Kind Benefits and Reimbursements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
in this Agreement, in-kind benefits and reimbursements provided under this Agreement
shall be provided in accordance with the requirements of Treasury Regulation Section
1.409A-3(i)(iv), such that any in-kind benefits and reimbursements provided under this
Agreement during any calendar year shall not affect in-kind benefits or reimbursements
to be provided in any other calendar year, other than an arrangement providing for the
reimbursement of medical expenses referred to in Section 105(b) of the Code, and any
in-kind benefits and reimbursements shall not be subject to liquidation or exchange for
another benefit. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement,
reimbursement requests must be timely submitted by Executive and, if timely submitted,
reimbursement payments shall be promptly made to Executive following such submission,
but in no event later than December 31st of the calendar year following the
calendar year in which the expense was incurred. In no event shall Executive be
entitled to any reimbursement payments after December 31st of the calendar
year following the calendar year in which the expense was incurred. This paragraph
shall only apply to in-kind benefits and reimbursements that would result in taxable
compensation income to Executive.

     (c) Distribution. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, to
the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, amounts payable to Executive pursuant to
Section 13.5.2 shall be made in reliance upon Treas. Reg. Section 1.409A-1(b)(9)
(Separation Pay Plans) or Treas. Reg. Section 1.409A-1(b)(4) (Short-Term Deferrals).
However, to the extent any payments are treated as non-qualified deferred compensation
subject to Section 409A of the Code, then if Executive is deemed at the time of his
Separation from Service to be a “specified employee” for purposes of Section
409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code, then to the extent delayed commencement of any portion of
the benefits to which Executive is entitled under this Agreement is required in order to
avoid a prohibited distribution

 

 

under Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code, such portion of Executive’s termination
benefits shall not be provided to Executive prior to the earlier of (i) the expiration
of the six-month period measured from the date of Executive’s Separation from Service or
(ii) the date of Executive’s death. Upon the earlier of such dates, all payments
deferred pursuant to this Section 13(c) shall be paid in a lump sum to Executive.
Thereafter, payments will resume in accordance with this Agreement. The determination
of whether Executive is a “specified employee” for purposes of Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i)
of the Code as of the time of his Separation from Service shall be made by the Company
in accordance with the terms of Section 409A of the Code and applicable guidance there
under (including without limitation Treas. Reg. Section 1.409A-1(i)). This Agreement is
intended to be written, administered, interpreted and construed in a manner such that no
payment or benefits provided under the Agreement become subject to (a) the gross income
inclusion set forth within Section 409A(a)(1)(A) of the Code or (b) the interest and
additional tax set forth within Section 409A(a)(1)(B) of the Code (together, referred to
herein as the “Section 409A Penalties”), including, where appropriate, the construction
of defined terms to have meanings that would not cause the imposition of Section 409A
Penalties. In no event shall the Company be required to provide a tax gross-up payment
to Executive or otherwise reimburse Executive with respect to Section 409A Penalties.

Please acknowledge your acceptance of employment by signing the enclosed copy of this letter,
completing the K12 Confidentiality, Proprietary Rights and Non-Solicitation Agreement and K12
Agreement to Arbitrate, and returning them to me as soon as possible. Should you have any

DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES

Section 6.1. Seller’s Remedies.

(a) If Purchaser fails or refuses to consummate the transaction contemplated by this Agreement
in accordance with this Agreement or Purchaser otherwise is in default under this Agreement, Seller
and Purchaser agree that the damages Seller would sustain as a result of the failure, refusal or
default by Purchaser would be substantial but would be difficult to ascertain. Accordingly, Seller
and Purchaser agree that in the event of such a failure, refusal or default by Purchaser, Seller
will be entitled to receive the Deposit from Escrow Agent as liquidated damages as Seller’s sole
and exclusive remedy, whereupon this Agreement will terminate and neither Seller nor Purchaser will
have any further rights or obligations under this Agreement.

(b) If following the Closing, Purchaser materially defaults under its obligations set forth in
Section 8.23 hereof, Seller shall have the right to make a Claim against Purchaser for any
loss, cost, expense and damages resulting from such default, provided that any Claim by Seller
against Purchaser arising out of such default shall be limited to the actual amount of the loss,
cost, expense and damages suffered or incurred by Purchaser as a result of such default (excluding
consequential, punitive and similar damages).

Section 6.2. Purchaser’s Remedies.

 

15

 

(a) If Seller fails to secure the appropriate corporate authorization to consummate the
transaction contemplated by this Agreement in accordance with Section 8.16 or materially
fails to perform or materially breaches any obligations or covenants in Section 8.20(b) or
Section 8.20(c) hereof, Purchaser will be entitled to receive the Deposit from Escrow
Agent, this Agreement will terminate and neither Seller nor Purchaser will have any further rights
or obligations under this Agreement other than those rights and obligations that expressly survive
the termination of this Agreement.

(b) If Seller fails or refuses to consummate the transaction contemplated by this Agreement
(other than as a result of (i) Seller’s failure to secure the appropriate authorization to
consummate the transaction or (ii) Seller’s failure to effectuate the Life Time Fitness Centers
Loans Separation Transaction pursuant to Section 8.20(a), for which Purchaser shall have
the rights and remedies set forth in Section 3.8 hereof), including any failure by Seller
to deliver to Purchaser the Closing Documents required to be delivered by Seller, Purchaser will
have the right, at Purchaser’s sole option, to (i) terminate this Agreement and receive the Deposit
from Escrow Agent or (ii) institute a proceeding for specific performance.

(c) If following the Closing, Seller materially defaults under its obligations set forth in
Section 8.20(d), Section 8.20(e) or Section 8.22 hereof, Purchaser shall
have the right to make a Claim against Seller for any loss, cost, expense and damages resulting
from such default, provided that any Claim by Purchaser against Seller arising out of such default
shall be limited to the actual amount of the loss, cost, expense and damages suffered or incurred
by Purchaser as a result of such default (excluding consequential, punitive and similar damages).

(d) Purchaser will have no rights or remedies against Seller or Seller’s Affiliates, agents,
employees, representatives or trustees in connection with the transaction contemplated by this
Agreement other than the rights and remedies expressly set forth in this Section 6.2 and
the rights and remedies provided in Section 6.3 below with respect to a Material Breach of
a Seller’s Representation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement,
Purchaser’s rights under this Article will inure to the benefit of Purchaser only and will
terminate with respect to each Loan, upon the transfer of all or any portion of Purchaser’s
interest in such Loan or upon the acquisition by any successor to Purchaser of Purchaser’s interest
in such Loan.

Section 6.3. Material Breach of a Seller’s Representation.

(a) If Purchaser discovers a Material Breach of a Seller’s Representation, Purchaser will
deliver Notice of the Material Breach to Seller within three (3) Business Days of Purchaser’s
discovery of the Material Breach, but in no event after the Material Breach Termination Date. If
Purchaser fails to deliver Notice of the Material Breach to Seller within the three (3) Business
Day period described above or if Purchaser delivers the Notice to Seller after the Material Breach
Termination Date, Purchaser will be deemed to have waived the Material Breach and Purchaser will
have no right to assert a Claim for the Material Breach.

 

16

 

(b) If, prior to or at the Closing, Purchaser delivers to Seller Notice of a Material Breach
of a Seller’s Representation as provided in Section 6.3(a), then Seller may elect, within
thirty (30) days of its receipt of the Notice, in its sole and absolute discretion, to cure the
Material Breach in all material respects. If Purchaser delivers the Notice to Seller less than
thirty (30) days before the Closing, the Closing will be adjourned to the extent necessary to allow
Seller thirty (30) days in which to make an election as described above. If Seller elects to cure
the Material Breach, then the Closing will be adjourned for a reasonable period of time to allow
Seller to effectuate a cure. If Seller does not make an election or, having elected to cure the
Material Breach, Seller fails to do so within a reasonable period of time after Seller’s election,
Purchaser will have the option either to (i) waive the Material Breach and consummate the
transaction or (ii) rescind and cancel this Agreement, in which event Purchaser will be entitled to
receive the Deposit from Escrow Agent and neither Seller nor Purchaser will have any further rights
or obligations under this Agreement.

(c) If, after the Closing but prior to or on the Material Breach Termination Date, Purchaser
delivers to Seller Notice of a Material Breach of a Seller’s Representation as to a Loan, as
provided in Section 6.3(a), then Seller may elect, in its sole and absolute discretion,
within thirty (30) days of Purchaser’s delivery of the Notice, either to cure the Material Breach
in all material respects or to repurchase such Loan. If Seller does not make an election or,
having elected to cure the Material Breach, fails to do so, any Claim arising out of the Material
Breach will be limited to the lesser of (i) the actual amount of the loss suffered by Purchaser as
a result of the Material Breach (excluding consequential, punitive and similar damages) as
evidenced by documentation satisfactory to Seller and (ii) the amount of the Repurchase Price for
such Loan.

(d) If Seller elects to repurchase a Loan, Seller will repurchase the Loan on a whole loan,
servicing-released basis (except for the MGM Tower Loan and the Willowbrook Mall Loan) at the
Repurchase Price. On the date of repurchase, Seller will pay the Repurchase Price to Purchaser by
wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account designated by Purchaser.

(e) In connection with any repurchase of a Loan in accordance with this Agreement, and as a
condition to Seller’s payment of the Repurchase Price, Purchaser will tender to Seller the Loan
Files for such Loan previously delivered to Purchaser, and Purchaser will endorse and assign to
Seller each document that constitutes a part of the Loan Files that was endorsed or assigned to
Purchaser, in the same manner as provided in Article III. In addition, Purchaser will make
the same representations and warranties to Seller as of the date of the repurchase as Seller has
made to Purchaser under Section 5.2 with respect to the sale and purchase of such Loan on
the Closing Date. Furthermore, Purchaser will represent and warrant to Seller that (i) the
provisions of the Note, the Mortgage, the Assignment and the other documents in such Loan Files
have not been waived, modified, altered, satisfied, cancelled or subordinated in any respect or
rescinded, (ii) Purchaser has not instituted any foreclosure action or other suit or proceeding in
connection with such Loan, (iii) the Property has not been released from the lien of the

 

17

 

Mortgage, in whole or in part and (iv) Purchaser has not interfered in any way with the security
for the Loan while the Loan was in Purchaser’s possession.

Section 7.1. General Indemnification. Purchaser indemnifies, holds harmless
and defends Seller, Seller’s Affiliates, agents, employees, representatives and trustees, the
existing trustees under any deed of trust securing the Loans and any predecessor or successor of
Seller (collectively, the “Indemnified Persons”) for, from and against any and all Claims
to which any of the Indemnified Persons may become subject on account of, arising out of or related
to any act, omission, conduct or activity of Purchaser or any of Purchaser’s Affiliates, agents,
employees, members, partners, principals, representatives or trustees at any time both before or
after the Closing Date (but excluding any liabilities or obligations retained by Seller under the
Loans or the Loan Documents which accrue or arise prior to the Closing Date and are not caused by
Purchaser) on account of, arising out of or related to (a) this Agreement; (b) any of the Loans;
(c) the condition, control, operation or ownership of any of the Properties, including the presence
or release of any hazardous or toxic fluids, substances or materials on, under or from any
Property; (d) Purchaser’s due diligence review of the Loans or the Properties; (e) the servicing of
the Loans or any other breach by Purchaser of the covenant set forth in Section 4.6

Claim that Seller, subsequent to the date of this Agreement, was in any way involved in or had in
any way authorized any unlawful collection practices in connection with the Loans; (f) any
inaccuracy in or breach of Purchaser’s representations, warranties, covenants or acknowledgments
made pursuant to this Agreement; and (g) any Claim for a finder’s fee or broker’s commission
asserted against Seller and arising from the transaction contemplated by this Agreement.

Section 7.2. Notice of Claims. Purchaser promptly will deliver Notice to
Seller of any Claim by any person or entity against an Indemnified Person that arises from or is
related to any of the Loans. Promptly after an Indemnified Person receives notice of a Claim
(whether received from Purchaser or otherwise) to which this Article applies in the Indemnified
Person’s opinion, the Indemnified Person will deliver Notice to Purchaser of the Claim,
provided, however, that any failure by the Indemnified Person to deliver the Notice
to Purchaser will not relieve Purchaser of liability under this Agreement. Purchaser will be
entitled to participate in the defense of the Claim and may (with the consent of the Indemnified
Person) or will (if required by the Indemnified Person) assume the defense of the Claim, using
counsel selected by Purchaser and approved by the Indemnified Person. In either event, Purchaser
will be responsible for and will pay on demand all legal fees and expenses incurred by the
Indemnified Person in connection with the Claim.

Section 7.3. Settlement. If any Claim is settled or if there is a final
judgment against the Indemnified Person in any Claim, Purchaser will indemnify, hold harmless and

 

18

 

defend the Indemnified Person for, from and against any and all loss or liability incurred by the
Indemnified Person by reason of such settlement or judgment and will pay on demand all costs and
expenses incurred by the Indemnified Person in connection with the settlement or judgment.

Section 7.4. Environmental Indemnity. Nothing in this Agreement or any
documents delivered pursuant to this Agreement will prejudice Seller from seeking the benefit of
any environmental indemnity delivered by any indemnitor to Seller in connection with any of the
Loans.

found to be illegal or unenforceable or would operate to invalidate this Agreement, then the

19

 

Section 8.5. Survival. Unless expressly provided to the contrary in this
Agreement, Seller’s and Purchaser’s representations, warranties and covenants contained in this
Agreement will continue in full force and effect and survive the Closing and any other act or

relating to the matters described in this Agreement, other than those expressly set forth in any
Confidentiality Agreement executed by Purchaser, are contained in this Agreement, which contains
the complete and exclusive statement of the agreements between Seller and Purchaser, except as

to exercise or any delay in exercising any of such rights will not operate as a waiver or variation
of that or any other such right. Any defective or partial exercise of any of such rights will not
preclude any other or further exercise of that or any other such right. No act or course of
conduct or negotiation on the part of any party will in any way preclude such party from exercising
any such right or constitute a suspension or any variation of any such right.

provided, however, that Purchaser will have the right to name an Affiliate as the
endorsee of the Notes and the assignee of the Mortgages, the Assignments and the Loan Files

obligations of Seller under the Loans and to complete the transactions, deliveries and assignments

in which Seller is named following the filing or recording of such UCC Financing Statement.

Section 8.19. Post-Closing Sales or Securitizations. If at any time on or
prior to the ninetieth (90th) day following the Closing (x) Purchaser sells or otherwise
transfers all or any portion of Purchaser’s interest in any Loan to a third party or (y) Purchaser
or its Affiliate securitizes any Loan, Purchaser shall promptly notify Seller in writing in

(3) other loans (the “Excess Loans”) secured by properties located in Skokie, Illinois,
Burr Ridge, Illinois and Orland Park, Illinois (collectively, the “Excess Property”).
Prior to the Closing Date, Seller shall use reasonable efforts to cause the Excess Loans and the

Life Time Fitness Centers Loans are cross-defaulted with the Excess Loans and none of the Excess
Loans are cross-defaulted with any of the Life Time Fitness Centers Loans, (ii) none of the
Properties from the Life Time Fitness Centers Loans secure the Excess Loans and none of the Excess
Property secures the Life Time Fitness Centers Loans, and (iii) no guaranty, collateral or other
security for the Life Time Fitness Centers Loans constitutes a guaranty, collateral or security for
the Excess Loans (collectively, the “Life Time Fitness Centers Loans Separation
Transaction”). Any proposed amendments or modifications to the Life Time Fitness Centers Loans
to effectuate the Life Time Fitness Centers Loans Separation Transaction shall be either (i)
subject to the prior written approval of Purchaser, which approval shall not be unreasonably
withheld, conditioned or delayed or (ii) in form and substance substantially similar to (A) those
certain Omnibus Amendments to Loan Documents and (B) that certain Confirmation of Indemnities and
Guaranties, each set forth on Exhibit M (collectively, the “Pre-Approved Forms”),
which Purchaser has previously approved, provided that any material deviations, modifications or
changes to the Pre-Approved Forms shall be subject to the prior written approval of Purchaser,
which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Seller shall promptly
deliver to Purchaser copies of any such amendments and modifications entered into by Seller.

 

22

 

(b) Between the date hereof and the earlier of (i) the Closing and (ii) the date on which this
Agreement is terminated pursuant to the terms hereof, Seller shall use reasonable efforts to obtain
originals or copies, if originals are unavailable, of those documents set forth on Exhibit
O, provided that in no event shall Seller be required to contact any Borrower to obtain such
documents. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller is under no obligation to deliver such documents
on or prior to Closing and the delivery of such documents shall not be a condition to Closing. Any
failure to obtain such documents shall not constitute a breach of the representation and warranty
set forth in Section 5.4(j) hereof.

(c) Between the date hereof and the earlier of (i) the Closing and (ii) the date on which this
Agreement is terminated pursuant to the terms hereof, with regard to each escrow or pledge
agreement to which Seller is a party relating to the Loans, Seller shall use reasonable efforts to
contact the escrow agent thereunder to request that after Closing, such escrow agent change all
references in the name of the account from Seller to Purchaser.

(d) With regard to the Life Time Fitness Letter of Credit, promptly upon Closing, (i)
Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts to pursue a replacement Letter of Credit from
the Borrower, (ii) upon Purchaser’s request, Seller shall reasonably cooperate with Purchaser to
assist Purchaser in obtaining a replacement Letter of Credit from the Borrower, provided that
Seller shall not be required to incur any cost or expense in connection therewith (unless Purchaser
agrees to reimburse Seller for such cost or expense), and (iii) if Purchaser or, in the event an
Affiliate of Purchaser (a “Purchaser Affiliate Successor”) has succeeded to Purchaser’s
interest in the Life Time Fitness Centers Loans, a Purchaser Affiliate Successor, holds the Life
Time Fitness Centers Loans (and only to the extent that Purchaser or a Purchaser Affiliate
Successor holds the Life Time Fitness Centers Loans, Purchaser hereby acknowledging that in the
event that neither Purchaser nor a Purchaser Affiliate Successor hold the Life Time Fitness Centers
Loans, Seller shall have no obligations under this Section 8.20(d)(iii)), Seller shall take all
reasonable action, as directed by Purchaser (or as directed by a Purchaser Affiliate Successor, as
applicable) and at Purchaser’s (or such Purchaser Affiliate Successor’s, as applicable) expense, to
effectuate draw downs of the Life Time Fitness Letter of Credit (provided that Seller is only
taking such actions in response to Purchaser’s (or a Purchaser Affiliate Successor’s, as
applicable) request, and Seller is in no way independently analyzing or verifying the validity or
correctness of such actions, until such time that the Borrower delivers to Purchaser (or such
Purchaser Affiliate Successor) a replacement Letter of Credit. In the event of any draw on the
Life Time Fitness Letter of Credit by Seller, Seller shall promptly remit to Purchaser (or such
Purchaser Affiliate Successor, as applicable) (or as otherwise directed by Purchaser (or such
Purchaser Affiliate Successor, as applicable)) the proceeds of such draw. In consideration of
Seller’s agreement as aforesaid, Purchaser (or such Purchaser Affiliate Successor, as applicable)
shall indemnify, defend and hold Seller harmless from any liability, damage, loss, cost or expense
arising as a result of Seller taking such actions after Closing. This Section 8.20(d)
shall survive the Closing.

 

23

 

(e) With regard to the Excluded Letter of Credit, while such Excluded Letter of Credit is in
Seller’s possession (and only to the extent that such Excluded Letter of Credit is in Seller’s
possession, Purchaser hereby acknowledging that Seller has no obligation to Purchaser to keep the
Excluded Letter of Credit in its possession for any length of time, and Seller hereby acknowledging
that it will retain possession of the Excluded Letter of Credit if the Borrower under the 301
Carlson Loan and the 401 Carlson Loan tenders the Excluded Letter of Credit back to Seller after
Seller has delivered it (or attempted to deliver it) to such Borrower), (i) upon Purchaser’s
request, Seller shall reasonably cooperate with Purchaser to assist Purchaser in obtaining a
replacement Letter of Credit from the Borrower for the portion of the Excluded Letter of Credit
allocable to the 301 Carlson Loan and the 401 Carlson Loan (each, as described in the Mortgage Loan
Schedule), provided that Seller shall not be required to incur any cost or expense in connection
therewith (unless Purchaser agrees to reimburse Seller for such cost or expense), and (ii) if
Purchaser or, in the event a Purchaser Affiliate Successor has succeeded to Purchaser’s interest in
the 301 Carlson Loan or the 401 Carlson Loan, a Purchaser Affiliate Successor, holds the 301
Carlson Loan or the 401 Carlson Loan (and only to the extent that Purchaser or a Purchaser
Affiliate Successor holds the 301 Carlson Loan and the 401 Carlson Loan, Purchaser hereby
acknowledging that in the event that neither Purchaser nor a Purchaser Affiliate Successor hold the
301 Carlson Loan or the 401 Carlson Loan, Seller shall have no obligations under this Section
8.20(e)(ii) with regard to such Loan), Seller shall take all reasonable action, as directed by
Purchaser (or, if a Purchaser Affiliate Successor has succeeded to the interests of Purchaser in
either or both the 301 Carlson Loan and the 401 Carlson Loan, as directed by such Purchaser
Affiliate Successor) and at Purchaser’s (or such Purchaser Affiliate Successor’s, as applicable)
expense, to effectuate draw downs of the portion of the Excluded Letter of Credit allocable to the
301 Carlson Loan and the 401 Carlson Loan (provided that Seller is only taking such actions in
response to Purchaser’s (or such Purchaser Affiliate Successor’s, as applicable) request, and
Seller is in no way independently analyzing or verifying the validity or correctness of such
actions), until such time that the Borrower delivers to Purchaser (or such Purchaser Affiliate
Successor, as applicable) a replacement Letter of Credit or the Excluded Letter of Credit is no
longer in Seller’s possession. In the event of any draw on the Excluded Letter of Credit by Seller
with respect to the portion of the Excluded Letter of Credit allocable to the 301 Carlson Loan
and/or the 401 Carlson Loan, Seller shall promptly remit to Purchaser (or such Purchaser Affiliate
Successor, as applicable) (or as otherwise directed by Purchaser (or such Purchaser Affiliate
Successor, as applicable)) the proceeds of such draw. In consideration of Seller’s agreement as
aforesaid, Purchaser (or such Purchaser Affiliate Successor, as applicable) shall indemnify, defend
and hold Seller harmless from any liability, damage, loss, cost or expense arising as a result of
Seller taking such actions after Closing. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in
this Section 8.20(e), Seller shall have the right to draw on the Excluded Letter of Credit
with respect to the portion of the Excluded Letter of Credit not allocable to the 301 Carlson Loan
and the 401 Carlson Loan in Seller’s sole and absolute discretion, Purchaser hereby acknowledging
that Purchaser may be required to forego possession of the Excluded Letter of Credit in connection
therewith; provided, however, that in the event the Excluded Letter of Credit is amended or a new
letter of credit issued

 

24

 

following a draw on the Excluded Letter of Credit by Seller (the amended Excluded Letter of Credit
or new letter credit, each, a “New Excluded Letter of Credit”), such New Excluded Letter of
Credit shall be subject to the terms of this Section 8.20(e) and constitute the Excluded
Letter of Credit under this Section 8.20(e) so long as such New Excluded Letter of Credit
is in Seller’s possession and any portion of such New Excluded Letter of Credit is allocable to the
301 Carlson Loan or the 401 Carlson Loan. This Section 8.20(e) shall survive the Closing.

Section 8.21. Escrow Agent.

(a) All fees charged by Escrow Agent shall be the responsibility of Purchaser. Escrow Agent
may resign from its duties hereunder at any time by giving written notice of such resignation to
the parties hereto; provided, however, that Escrow Agent shall continue to serve
until its successor is appointed jointly by Seller and Purchaser, and such successor accepts and
agrees to perform the obligations of Escrow Agent hereunder and receives the Deposit.

(b) Under this Agreement, Escrow Agent is a depositary only and shall have no liability for
the holding, disbursement, application or other disposition of any monies received by Escrow Agent
other than to comply with the specific instructions, terms and provisions expressly set forth
and/or provided for in this Agreement. In accepting any monies delivered to Escrow Agent
hereunder, it is agreed and understood that Escrow Agent will not be called upon to construe any
contract, instrument or document deposited herewith or submitted hereunder, but only to follow the

(c) Escrow Agent, as a part of the consideration for its acceptance of this escrow, shall not,
in the performance of its duties under this Agreement, be liable for any error of judgment, or for

active discussions regarding any other offer to purchase all or any portion of the Loans.

Section 8.23. Sharing Agreements.

(a) From and after the Closing Date, Purchaser agrees to pay Seller twenty-five percent (25%)
of any Net Extension Fees (as defined below) actually received by Purchaser (or its Affiliates)
after the Closing Date. “Net Extension Fees” shall mean, with respect to any Loan, the
amount of (i) any fees actually received by Purchaser (or its Affiliates) in connection with the
extension of the maturity date of the Loan for less than eighteen (18) months (an “Extension”),
less (ii) all out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Purchaser in connection with or relating
to the Extension of such Loan, to the extent not separately paid for by Borrower (or its
Affiliates). In the event that the maturity date of a Loan is extended multiple times, such that
the aggregate length of all Extensions is eighteen (18) months or more after the original maturity
date of the Loan, then following the first Extension which, together with all previous Extensions,
extends the original maturity date for eighteen (18) months or more, Purchaser shall pay to Seller
fifty percent (50%) of the total Net Extension Fees received by Purchaser (or its Affiliates) in
connection with such Extension and all previous Extensions, less all Net Extension Fees relating to
such Loan previously paid to Seller; provided, however, that Seller shall not be entitled to any
further Net Extension Fees (or Net Origination Fees) in connection with any further Extensions (or
Refinancings) of such Loan. Nothing contained in this Section 8.23(a) shall require
Purchaser to extend the maturity of all or any of the Loans (or to make any offer or proposal to
extend the maturity date of all or any of the Loans), and any decision by Purchaser to extend the
maturity date of any of the Loans (or to make any offer or proposal to extend the maturity date for
any of the Loans) shall be made in the sole and absolute discretion of Purchaser. This Section
8.23(a) shall survive the Closing.

(b) From and after the Closing Date, Purchaser agrees to pay Seller fifty percent (50%) of any
Net Origination Fees (as defined below) actually received by

 

26

 

Purchaser (or its Affiliates) after the Closing Date. “Net Origination Fees” shall mean,
with respect to any Loan, the amount of (i) any fees actually received by Purchaser (or its
Affiliates) in connection with the first extension of the maturity date of the Loan for eighteen
(18) months or more (a “Refinancing”), less (ii) all out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by
Purchaser (or its Affiliates) in connection with or relating to the Refinancing of the Loan, to the
extent not separately paid for by Borrower (or its Affiliates). The portion of the Net Origination
Fees payable to Seller pursuant to this Section 8.23(b) with respect to the Refinancing
shall only be payable in connection with the first Refinancing of such Loan by Purchaser (or its
Affiliates) after the Closing Date, and this Section 8.23(b) shall not be applicable to any
subsequent Refinancing of such Loan by Purchaser (or any of its Affiliates) following the first
Refinancing of such Loan. Nothing contained in this Section 8.23 shall require Purchaser
(or any of its Affiliates) to Refinance all or any of the Loans (or to make any offer or proposal
to Refinance any of the Loans), and any decision by Purchaser (or its Affiliates) to Refinance any
of the Loans (or to make any offer or proposal to Refinance any of the Loans) shall be made in the
sole and absolute discretion of Purchaser (and its Affiliates). This Section 8.23(b) shall
survive the Closing.

(c) The portion of any Net Extension Fees or any Net Origination Fees payable to Seller in
accordance with the terms of this Section 8.23 shall be paid by Purchaser to Seller within
seven (7) Business Days following receipt by Purchaser of the Net Extension Fees or Net Origination
Fees, as applicable, in accordance with written payment instructions provided by Seller to
Purchaser. This Section 8.23(c) shall survive the Closing.

(d) No later than two (2) Business Days prior to the occurrence of any extension of the term
of any Loan (whether such extension is an Extension or a Refinancing as defined pursuant to this
Section 8.23), a statement certified by an officer of Purchaser (or its Affiliate) shall be
delivered to Seller setting forth reasonably detailed information regarding the extension (i.e.,
the length of the proposed extension, an estimate of any fees anticipated to be received by
Purchaser (or its Affiliates) in connection with such extension, and an estimate of Purchaser’s (or
its Affiliates’) out-of-pocket costs and expenses not reimbursed by Borrower (or its Affiliates)),
and the amount anticipated to be paid to Seller as a result of such extension. Upon the request of
Seller, Purchaser (or its Affiliates) shall promptly provide all reasonable back-up materials
requested by Seller relating to such extension. This Section 8.23(d) shall survive the
Closing.
