Obligations of Pearson and the Trustee

2.1 Pearson and the Trustee agree that during and in respect of the period from the date of this Agreement up to and including the Closing Date, the Pensionable Employees will be permitted to remain members of the PGPP and IDCO UK will be permitted to participate in the PGPP until the Closing Date.

2.2 Other than as provided for under clause 2.3, Pearson and the Trustee shall not, during and in respect of the period from the date of this Agreement to the Closing Date alter the Trust Deed or Rules or exercise any other power or discretion so as to increase materially the obligations of IDCO UK as a participating employer, or any debt potentially payable by IDCO UK under Section 75 (and, in particular, Pearson and the Trustee shall not alter the Schedule of Contributions in any manner increasing IDCO UK’s contributions to the PGPP).

2.3 Pearson and the Trustee may do or omit to do the actions described in clause 2.2 in the following circumstances:

(a)

with the written consent of IDCO UK (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed (it being acknowledged that it will not be deemed unreasonable for IDCO UK to withhold or delay consent if any action or omission to act by Pearson and/or the Trustee results in any change to the obligations of IDCO UK under the Schedule of Contributions dated 22 March 2010 or in any other material increases to IDCO UK’s obligations)); or

(b)	as required by law, or as is necessary in the reasonable opinion of Pearson and/or the Trustee, to avoid prejudicing the position of the PGPP as a registered pension scheme or as a contracted out scheme; or

Page 4

(c)

if such actions are being taken in the normal course of administering the PGPP and/or affect all participating employers in the PGPP in the same manner (including, for the avoidance of doubt, (i) the revision of actuarial factors used in the calculation of early retirement and late retirement benefits, and conversion of a member’s voluntary contributions to benefits under the PGPP, and (ii) the replacement of the Trust Deed and Rules with documents that have been rewritten for the purpose of facilitating ease of administration and updating legislative references; both of which (i) and (ii) are expected to occur between the date of this Agreement and the Closing Date).

Obligations of IDCO

2.4 IDCO UK agrees that it will (and IDCO shall procure that IDCO UK will), during and in respect of the period up to and including the Closing Date:

(a)	comply in all material respects with the provisions of the PGPP and the obligations imposed on an employer in relation to the PGPP by relevant legislation;

(b)	take such steps as are necessary or reasonable to procure that the Pensionable Employees remain in contracted-out employment in relation to the PGPP;

(c)

not exercise any power, right or discretion conferred on it by the PGPP, or in relation to the PGPP, by or under any legislation, including the giving or withholding of consent to any event or course of action, conferred on IDCO UK by the PGPP except on such terms (whether as to payment of additional contributions or otherwise) as Pearson Services may agree, such agreement not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed; and

(d)	not do or omit to do anything whereby the position of the PGPP as a registered pension scheme or as a contracted out scheme would or might be prejudiced.

2.5 The parties to this Agreement acknowledge that the Pensions ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ and the Pensions ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ and regulations already made under them or to be made under them in the future (the Pensions Legislation) will impose requirements on and grant discretions to employers under and in relation to the PGPP. Subject to clause 2.2 above (when read in conjunction with clause 2.3 above).

(a)	IDCO UK agrees that Pearson Services may make all decisions and exercise all discretions in relation to the PGPP envisaged by or desirable under the Pensions Legislation as though Pearson Services were the sole employer participating in the PGPP;

(b)	while IDCO UK remains an employer in relation to the PGPP, IDCO UK will in relation to the PGPP:

(i)

exercise no right or discretion conferred on it by or under the Pensions Legislation without the prior written consent of Pearson Services;

(ii)

exercise each right or discretion conferred on it by or under the Pensions Legislation as directed from time to time in writing by Pearson Services;

(iii)

from time to time execute all deeds, documents, agreements, consents or approvals for the purpose of complying with its obligations under sub- clauses (i) or (ii) above as may be considered necessary or desirable by Pearson Services; and

(iv)

co-operate with Pearson Services and the Trustee in providing information about, and access to, its employees from time to time; and

Page 5

(c)

Pearson Services may exercise the authorities and discretions envisaged by this clause in its absolute unfettered discretion and in its own interests. Save as provided in this Agreement (and in particular, without limitation, clause 2.2 when read in conjunction with clause 2.3), the Purchaser and IDCO accept that Pearson Services owes no duty or responsibility to IDCO UK, to the Purchaser, or to IDCO Inc in relation to the exercise of the authorities and discretions envisaged as conferred on Pearson Services by this clause.

2.6 IDCO shall procure that a relevant insolvency event for the purposes of Section 75 does not occur in relation to IDCO UK while it is an employer in relation to the PGPP for the purposes of that section.

2.7 Pearson Services, the Trustee and IDCO UK shall take such steps as may be required of them to procure that IDCO UK ceases to hold or be named in a contracting out certificate in relation to the PGPP with effect from the end of the Closing Date.

2.8 IDCO UK shall use reasonable endeavours to carry out any obligations relating to consultation of the IDCO UK employees (whether under The Occupational and Personal Pension Schemes (Consultation by Employers and Miscellaneous Amendment) Regulations 2006 or otherwise) before the Closing Date in relation to the Purchaser’s proposals for pensions accruals post-Closing, and the Purchaser, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ plc and IDCO Inc shall assist IDCO UK in relation to any reasonable request thereto by IDCO UK.

3.	PAYMENT OF CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE PGPP

3.1 PMSL shall, during and in respect of the period from the date of this Agreement up to and including the Closing Date, pay (or procure the payment of) the following monthly contributions, within nineteen (19) days of the end of the calendar month in which the deduction from the Pensionable Employees’ earnings were made, to the PGPP on behalf of IDCO UK:

pending and subject to the relevant procedures relating to approval by the Independent Committee of the Board of Directors of IDCO, £103,025.00, which are the monthly payments in respect of IDCO UK’s share of the deficit contributions set out in the recovery plan for the PGPP dated 22 March 2010 (required under section 226 of the Pensions Act 2004);

The Pearson Group Final Pay Section		23.9%

The Money Purchase 2003 Section		5.8%, plus twice the percentage amount of Pensionable Salary due from the relevant Pensionable Employee in respect of the calendar month in which the deduction from the Pensionable Employee’s earnings were made

(d)	any amount representing Pensionable Employees’ voluntary contributions deducted from pay by IDCO UK; and

(e)	any other amount which is payable by IDCO UK as an employer under the Trust Deed and Rules,

in each case above, as set out in the Schedule of Contributions and the Recovery Plan.

3.2 For the avoidance of doubt, if the Closing Date does not fall on the last day of the month, the payments under clause 3.1 above will be pro-rated to take account of the portion of the month that IDCO UK continued to participate in the PGPP.

3.3 IDCO UK shall pay to PMSL (or procure that such an amount is paid to PMSL on IDCO UK’s behalf) amount(s) equal to the amount(s) paid by PMSL to the PGPP under clause 3.1 above (in the case of the amounts referred to in clause 3.1(a), pending and subject to the relevant procedures relating to approval by the Independent Committee) within seven days of the date of such contributions becoming due to the PGPP, together with interest at the Interest Rate in respect of the period from the day after the relevant amount is paid to the PGPP up to and including the date on which it is paid to PMSL by or on behalf of IDCO UK (and, for the avoidance of doubt, no payment under this clause 3 shall relate to the Section 75 Top Up referred to at clause 6.6).

4.	CESSATION OF IDCO UK’S PARTICIPATION IN THE PGPP

4.1 Each of Pearson Services, the Trustee, and IDCO shall do everything in its power to ensure that all of the employees of IDCO UK in relation to the PGPP cease to be in pensionable service under the PGPP on the Closing Date.

If any amount becomes payable by IDCO UK to the Trustee as a debt under Section 75, the Trustee will promptly instruct the Actuary to calculate and certify such debt and, when the debt has been certified (the Section 75 Certificate), will promptly notify ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇ Inc and IDCO UK in writing of:

6.5 Within 5 Business Days of IDCO UK receiving the notice from the Trustee under clause 5, the Trustee shall issue instructions to the Bank to:

the amount due from IDCO UK to the PGPP above, in satisfaction of the Section 75 liability of IDCO UK referred to in clause 5; or

(ii)

if the aggregate amount standing to the credit of the Escrow Account in immediately available cleared funds is less than the Section 75 liability of IDCO UK, the aggregate amount then standing to the credit of the Escrow Account in immediately available cleared funds towards satisfaction of IDCO UK’s Section 75 liability referred to in clause 5; and

(b)	where clause 6.5(a)(i) applies, immediately after the payment to the Trustee from the Escrow Account is made under clause 6.5(a)(i), pay any remaining balance on the Escrow Account to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ plc or such person or persons as it may after the Closing Date direct.

Page 8

6.6 The Trustee undertakes to issue instructions for payment from the Escrow Account of the amounts due under the above clauses without delay.

6.7 In the event that the Trustee notifies ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇ Inc and IDCO UK (under clause 5 above) that the aggregate amount in the Escrow Account is less than the amount due from IDCO UK to the PGPP under Section 75 (as referred to in clause 5) (the amount of the difference between those amounts being the Section 75 Top Up), the following shall apply:

(d)	▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇ Inc, the Purchaser and IDCO UK agree that direct payment of the Section 75 Top-Up to the Trustee by or on behalf of Pearson Seller shall:

(i)

constitute the payment being made by Pearson Seller as the adjustment to the consideration payable by it under the Merger Agreement pursuant to (a);

constitute the making by IDCO Inc of the Section 75 Intra Group Payment (and satisfy IDCO Inc’s obligation to deliver to IDCO UK an amount equal to that payment in accordance with (b)); and

(iii)

when taken together with the release of funds from the Escrow under clause 6.5, satisfy the liability of IDCO UK to the PGPP under Section 75,
