Ladies and Gentlemen:

This letter agreement is being delivered by and sets forth the commitment of the undersigned (the “Sponsor”), on the terms and subject to the conditions contained herein, to purchase, directly or indirectly, certain equity interests of Achieve Holdings, an exempted company with limited liability incorporated under the Laws of the Cayman Islands (“Parent”). It is contemplated that, pursuant to that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of the date hereof (as may be amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Merger Agreement”), among Arco Platform Limited (the “Company”), Parent and Achieve Merger Sub, a direct wholly-owned Subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”), Merger Sub will merge with and into the Company (the “Merger”), with the Company surviving the Merger as a direct wholly-owned Subsidiary of Parent. Concurrently with the delivery of this letter agreement, General Atlantic Partners (Bermuda) IV, L.P. (the “Other Sponsor”) is entering into a letter agreement substantially identical to this letter agreement (the “Other Sponsor Equity Commitment Letter”) committing to purchase, directly or indirectly, certain equity interests of Parent. Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Merger Agreement. For the purpose of this letter agreement, the term “person” shall have the meaning given to it in Section 9.03 of the Merger Agreement.

1. Commitments.

(a) The Sponsor hereby commits and agrees, on the terms in this Section 1 and subject to the conditions set forth herein, to purchase, or to cause the purchase of, equity interests of Parent and to pay, or cause to be paid, to Parent in immediately available funds, at or prior to the Effective Time, an aggregate cash purchase price of US$158,195,303 (the “Equity Commitment”), which Parent shall use for the sole purpose of (i) funding its pro rata portion of the Aggregate Merger Consideration and any other amounts required to be paid by Parent or Merger Sub pursuant to and in accordance with the Merger Agreement and (ii) paying all other fees, costs and expenses incurred by Parent or required to be paid by Parent pursuant to and in accordance with the Merger Agreement; provided that the Sponsor shall not, under any circumstances, be obligated to contribute more than its Equity Commitment to Parent (the “Equity Commitment Cap”).

(b) The Sponsor may effect the funding of the Equity Commitment directly or indirectly through one or more direct or indirect Subsidiaries of the Sponsor or any affiliated investment fund or vehicles sponsored, advised or managed by the investment manager of the Sponsor or any Affiliate thereof. The Equity Commitment under this letter agreement may be reduced in a manner determined in accordance with that certain interim investors agreement, dated as of the date hereof, entered into by and among an entity affiliated with the Sponsor, an entity affiliated with the Other Sponsor, the Founders, the Additional Rollover Shareholders (as defined therein), Parent and Merger Sub (the “Interim Investors Agreement”) in the event that Parent does not require all of the equity financing with respect to which the Sponsor has made the Equity Commitment in order for Parent to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement in accordance therewith; provided that in no event may the Equity Commitment be reduced in a manner that would adversely affect the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement; provided, further, that in no event shall the Equity Commitment be reduced to a level that is insufficient to fully fund the payment obligations set forth under sub-clauses (i) and (ii) of Section 1(a) hereof. Except pursuant to and in accordance with this Section 1(b), the Equity Commitment under this letter agreement may not be reduced without the prior written consent of the Special Committee.

2. Conditions. The Equity Commitment shall be subject to (a) the satisfaction in full or waiver, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, at or prior to the Closing, of each of the conditions set forth in Section 7.01 and 7.03 of the Merger Agreement (other than those conditions that by their terms are to be satisfied by actions taken at the Closing, each of which shall be capable of being satisfied at the Closing, but subject to the satisfaction or, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, waiver of those conditions), (b) either the substantially contemporaneous occurrence of the Closing or the obtaining by the Company in accordance with Section 9.10 of the Merger Agreement of an injunction or other appropriate form of specific performance or equitable relief requiring the Financing to be funded and Parent and Merger Sub to effect the Closing, (c) the substantially contemporaneous funding to Parent of the contributions contemplated by the Other Sponsor Equity Commitment Letter; provided, however, that the satisfaction or failure of the condition set forth in clause (c) shall not limit or impair the ability of Parent or the Company to seek enforcement of the obligations of the Sponsor under and in accordance with this letter agreement if and only if (x) Parent or the Company, as applicable, is also seeking, to the same extent, enforcement of the Other Sponsor Equity Commitment Letter in accordance with the terms thereof or (y) the Other Sponsor has satisfied or has irrevocably confirmed it is prepared to satisfy its obligations under the Other Sponsor Equity Commitment Letter and (d) the substantially contemporaneous consummation of the contribution of the Rollover Shares by the Rollover Shareholders pursuant to and in accordance with the Rollover and Support Agreement.

3. Damages Commitment. In the event Parent or Merger Sub is determined pursuant to a final, non-appealable judgment to be liable for monetary damages for Parent or Merger Sub’s Fraud or willful breach (as defined in Section 8.02 of the Merger Agreement) of the Merger Agreement pursuant to and in accordance with Section 8.03(d) of the Merger Agreement, then the Sponsor hereby commits and agrees to, severally and not jointly with the Other Sponsor,

2

purchase, or to cause the purchase of, equity interests of Parent and to pay, or cause to be paid to Parent in exchange therefor, its pro rata portion (calculated based on the relative Equity Commitment hereunder and under the Other Sponsor Equity Commitment Letter) of such monetary damages (the “Damages Commitment”), the proceeds of which shall be used by Parent solely to pay the amount of such monetary damages pursuant to the Merger Agreement; provided that (a) in no event shall Sponsor’s aggregate monetary obligations pursuant to this Section 3 exceed its pro rata portion (calculated based on the relative Equity Commitment hereunder and under the Other Sponsor Equity Commitment Letter) of the Parent Liability Cap (the “Damages Commitment Cap”) and (b) the Damages Commitment shall be subject to the substantially contemporaneous payment to Parent of the “Damages Commitment” contemplated by the Other Sponsor Equity Commitment Letter; provided that clause (b) shall not limit or impair the ability of Parent or the Company to seek enforcement of the Damages Commitment of the Sponsor under and in accordance with this Section 3 if and only if (x) Parent or the Company, as applicable, is also seeking, to the same extent, enforcement of the “Damages Commitment” contemplated by the Other Sponsor Equity Commitment Letter in accordance with the terms thereof or (y) the Other Sponsor has satisfied or has irrevocably confirmed it is prepared to satisfy its “Damages Commitment” under the Other Sponsor Equity Commitment Letter.

4. Non-Recourse.

(a) Other than as set forth herein or with respect to the Retained Claims (as defined below), (i) the Company’s remedies under this letter agreement shall be, and are intended to be, the sole and exclusive direct or indirect remedies available to the Company, its Subsidiaries and Company Related Parties against the Sponsor or any of the Non-Recourse Parties for any liability, loss, damage or recovery of any kind (including consequential, indirect or punitive damages, and whether at law, in equity or otherwise) arising out of or relating to this letter agreement or the Merger Agreement, the Other Sponsor Equity Commitment Letter or the Rollover and Support Agreement (this letter agreement, the Merger Agreement, the Other Sponsor Equity Commitment Letter and the Rollover and Support Agreement, collectively, the “Transaction Agreements”) and in each case the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby; and (ii) the Company, its Subsidiaries and the Company Related Parties shall not have, and they are not intended to have, any right of recovery against the Sponsor or any of the Non-Recourse Parties in respect of any liabilities or obligations arising out of or relating to, any Transaction Agreement, including in the event Parent or Merger Sub breaches its obligations under the Merger Agreement and whether or not Parent’s or Merger Sub’s breach is caused by the Sponsor’s breach of its obligations under this letter agreement.

(b) The Company hereby covenants and agrees that it shall not institute, directly or indirectly, and it shall cause the Company Related Parties not to institute, directly or indirectly, in the name of or on behalf of the Company or any other person, any Action arising under, or in connection with, the Transaction Agreements, any other agreement or instrument delivered pursuant to such Transaction Agreements, or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, or in respect of any written or oral representations made or alleged to have been made in connection herewith or therewith, whether at law, in equity, in contract, in tort or otherwise, against Parent, Merger Sub, the Sponsor or any Non-Recourse Party (as defined below), except for claims against (i) Parent and Merger Sub (and their respective successors and permitted assigns) under and to the extent permitted by the Merger Agreement and pursuant to and in accordance with the

(c) Notwithstanding (i) anything that may be expressed or implied in this letter agreement, the Merger Agreement or any other Transaction Agreement, or in any agreement or instrument delivered, or statement made or action taken, in connection with or pursuant to the transactions contemplated by any of this letter agreement, the Merger Agreement or any other Transaction Agreement or the negotiation, execution, performance or breach of this letter agreement, the Merger Agreement or any other Transaction Agreements, (ii) any equitable, common law or statutory right or claim that may be available to Parent or the Company, its Subsidiaries or any of the Company Related Parties and (iii) the fact that the Sponsor (or, if applicable, its successors or permitted assigns hereunder) may be a partnership, limited liability company or corporation, by the acceptance of the benefits of the Equity Commitment provided herein, each of Parent and the Company (on behalf of itself and the Company Related Parties) covenants, agrees and acknowledges that (x) no person (other than the Sponsor (or, if applicable, its successors or permitted assigns hereunder) or the Company solely in respect of and in accordance with Section 4(b) of this letter agreement) shall have any liabilities or obligations hereunder, (y) except for the Retained Claims, Parent and the Company shall have no rights of recovery hereunder or under any document or instrument delivered in connection herewith, nor shall initiate, maintain, participate or recover pursuant to any proceeding (whether at law or equity or in tort, contract or otherwise) based on, in respect of, or by reason of such obligations or liabilities, and (z) no recourse shall be had against and no liability shall attach to, any former, current or future holders of any equity, general or limited partnership or limited liability company interest, controlling persons, management companies, portfolio companies, incorporators, directors, officers, employees, agents, advisors, attorneys, Affiliates (other than the Sponsor or, if applicable, its successors or permitted assigns hereunder), members, managers, general or limited partners, stockholders, shareholders or representatives of any of the Sponsor, Parent, Merger Sub or the Other Sponsor, or any former, current or future holders of any equity, general or limited partnership or limited liability company interest, controlling persons, management companies, portfolio companies, incorporators, directors, officers, employees, agents, advisors, attorneys, Affiliates (other than the Sponsor or, if applicable, its successors or permitted assigns hereunder), members, managers, general or limited partners, stockholders, shareholders, representatives, successors or assignees of any of the foregoing (collectively, but not including the Sponsor, Parent, Merger Sub or the Other Sponsor or their respective successors or permitted assigns, collectively the “Non-Recourse Parties,” and each a “Non-Recourse Party”), through Parent, Merger Sub or otherwise, whether by or through attempted piercing of the corporate (or limited liability company or limited partnership) veil, by or through a claim (whether at law or equity or in tort, contract or otherwise) by or on behalf of Parent against any Non-Recourse Party, by the enforcement of any

4

assessment or by any legal or equitable proceeding, or by virtue of any applicable Law, or for any obligations or liabilities of the Sponsor hereunder or under any document or instrument delivered in connection herewith or in respect of any oral representation made or alleged to be made in connection herewith or therewith or for any proceeding (whether at law or equity or in tort, contract or otherwise) based on, in respect of, or by reason of such obligations or liabilities or their creation, or otherwise.

5. Enforceability; Third-Party Beneficiary.

(a) This letter agreement may only be enforced by Parent or, solely to the extent set forth in the following proviso, the Company, in each case in accordance with this letter agreement and subject to the limitations herein and, with respect to the Equity Commitment, to the conditions set forth in Section 2; provided that, subject to Sections 5(b), 5(e) and 8, the Company is hereby made an intended third-party beneficiary of the rights granted to Parent for purposes of directly enforcing the obligations of Sponsor or, if applicable, its successors or permitted assigns hereunder, and will, for the avoidance of doubt and without limitation, be entitled to enforce the rights granted to Parent to cause the Sponsor to (a) fund the Equity Commitment in accordance with Section 1 of this letter agreement (subject to and in accordance with the limitations herein, the conditions in Section 2, and to Section 9.10 of the Merger Agreement) through an action for specific performance (or similar equitable relief) if, and only if, (i) all conditions in Sections 7.01 and 7.03 of the Merger Agreement have been satisfied or waived at the time when the Closing would have occurred but for the failure of the Financing to be funded (other than those conditions that by their terms are to be satisfied at the Closing, but subject to the satisfaction or, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, waiver of those conditions), (ii) Parent fails to consummate the Closing by the date that the Closing is required to have occurred pursuant to Section 1.02 of the Merger Agreement and (iii) the Company has confirmed in writing to Parent (and the Company shall not have delivered written notice purporting to revoke such notice) that (A) all conditions in Sections 7.01 and 7.03 of the Merger Agreement (other than those conditions that by their terms are to be satisfied by actions taken at the Closing, each of which shall be capable of being satisfied at the Closing) have been satisfied at the time when the Closing would have occurred but for the failure of the Financing to be funded and (B) the Company has irrevocably confirmed in writing that if specific performance is granted and the Financing is funded, then the Closing will occur or (b) fund the Damages Commitment in accordance with Section 3 of this letter agreement (subject to and in accordance with the limitations herein).

5

(b) The Company shall not be a third-party beneficiary for any purpose other than as provided for in Section 5(a) hereof. In no event shall this letter agreement amend or modify any rights or claims the Company may have against any person under the express terms of the Merger Agreement. The Company hereby agrees that specific performance (or similar equitable relief) to fund the Equity Commitment or the Damages Commitment as provided for in Section 5(a) hereof shall be its sole and exclusive remedy with respect to any breach by the Sponsor of this letter agreement and that the Company may not seek or accept any other form of relief that may be available for any such breach of this letter agreement (including monetary damages).

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, in no event shall the Sponsor’s aggregate liability under this letter agreement (i) in the case of the Equity Commitment, exceed the Equity Commitment Cap or (ii) in the case of the Damages Commitment, exceed the Damages Commitment Cap. For the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall the Sponsor be required to fund both any portion of the Equity Commitment and any portion of the Damages Commitment.

(d) Each party hereto acknowledges and agrees that (i) this letter agreement is not intended to, and does not, create any agency, partnership, fiduciary or joint venture, relationship, between or among any of the parties hereto, and neither this letter agreement nor any other document or agreement entered into by any party hereto relating to the subject matter hereof shall be construed to suggest otherwise, and (ii) the obligations of the Sponsor under this letter agreement are solely contractual in nature.

(e) The parties hereto agree that their respective agreements and obligations set forth herein are solely for the benefit of the other party hereto and its respective successors and permitted assigns, in accordance with and subject to the terms of this letter agreement, and this letter agreement is not intended to, and does not, confer upon any person other than the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns any benefits, rights or remedies under or by reason of, or any rights to enforce or cause Parent to enforce, the obligations set forth therein; provided that (i) the Company is a third-party beneficiary of this letter agreement to the extent and only to the extent of its rights specifically set forth in Section 5(a) hereof; (ii) the Other Sponsor may rely upon and enforce the provisions of Section 13 hereof; and (iii) the Non-Recourse Parties may rely upon and enforce the provisions of Section 4 hereof. Except as expressly provided in the foregoing sentence, nothing in this letter agreement, express or implied, is intended to confer upon any person other than Parent or the Sponsor, any rights or remedies under or by reason of this letter agreement.
