U.S. Holders
Tax Consequences of the Mergers, page 84
1.We note your revised disclosure that the parties intend for the transaction to be tax free
but that there is an absence of guidance on the issue. Given this uncertainty, and the lack
of clear disclosure as to your belief that the transaction is expected to be taxable, the tax
consequences to investors appear to be material. Please revise your disclosure to state
that you cannot take the position that the transaction be treated, for U.S. federal income
tax purposes, as a non-taxable transaction because of an absence of guidance.
Alternatively, provide a tax opinion in support of your disclosure.

2.Given the recent Coronavirus outbreak in China and other countries, please tell us whether
you expect the outbreak to have an impact on your revenues in your current or future
financial periods, and if so, disclose this in your filing. In this regard, please disclose
whether or not you have closed any of your learning centers, as your risk factor disclosure
states this may be necessary.
