2.Refer to prior comment 6 and your response. It appears the comparable GAAP measures
to "adjusted gross profit" and "adjusted gross margin" are "gross profit" and "gross
margin," respectively. Please revise your presentation to add the comparable GAAP
measures with equal or greater prominence pursuant to Item 10(e)(1)(i)(A) of Regulation
S-K. Also include a reconciliation of "gross profit" to "adjusted gross profit" pursuant to
Item 10(e)(1)(i)(B) of Regulation S-K."

3.You disclose on pages 75 and 81 you earned approximately 98% and 96% for the fiscal
years ended February 28, 2018 and 2019, respectively, of the maximum potential revenue
under your contracts measured for the corresponding calendar year.  Please clarify in your
disclosure how you calculate this percentage.  Include how the amounts due to customers,
adjustments to the measure of progress used to recognize revenue for differences between
actual and estimated experience, and other adjustments made to arrive at reported revenue
are factored into the computation.  In this regard, advise how amounts reported in the
financial statements for fiscal 2018 and 2019 are representative of the
associated percentage amounts.
Choice of Forum, page 149
4.We note your response to comment 17, as well as your revised disclosure.  Please further
revise your disclosure specifically to clarify whether you intend the exclusive forum
provision to apply to claims under the Securities Act.  In this regard, we note that
ambiguity exists because, on the one hand, you disclose that the provision is limited to
claims under Delaware law and, on the other, you discuss case law that appears to suggest
the provision could be interpreted as applying to federal law.  In addition, please revise
and make fully consistent your descriptions of the exclusive forum provision throughout
the prospectus.  For example, the description in the risk factor on pages 58 and 59 does
not appear to include the numbered clauses (iv) and (v) in the description of the provision
on page 149.

5.You disclose the reporting performance obligation is performed separately over regular
intervals during the term of the contract. Accordingly, it appears the amount of revenue
recognized for this is not related to the number of members. In view of this, please explain
to us why it is appropriate to recognize revenue for it in a similar pattern as that for the

stand ready services which is based on the number of members, rather than on some other
basis (for example, straight line).

Additionally, please tell us, and disclose pursuant to ASC 606-10-50-20, information
about assumptions you use in allocating the transaction price between the stand ready and
reporting performance obligations, including allocation of the variable portion of the fee
to each.
6.On page F-12, you use the term "served" in the first paragraph in regard to revenue
associated with pre-launch open enrollment and in the fourth paragraph in regard to your
performance obligations during the term of the contract.  Please clarify what is meant by
this term, in particular, whether or not it refers to members that have actually enrolled in
or used your service as the basis for any amount of revenue recognized.
