EVERFI ANNOUNCES FORMER WASHINGTON D.C. MAYOR ADRIAN FENTY TO LEAD NATIONAL
CITIES EDUCATION CAMPAIGN

Washington, D.C. – May 11, 2011 – EverFi, Inc., the leading education
technology platform addressing growing state mandates in new subject areas,
announced today that former Washington D.C. Mayor Adrian Fenty will lead its
national cities education campaign to ensure all students have access to
critical skills training through cutting-edge technology.

“Imagine cities where students are graduating every year with a clear
understanding of managing their credit and student loans, leveraging the
Internet and their social network for jobs and opportunities, and avoiding
the spiral of substance abuse,” said EverFi Chief Executive Officer Tom
Davidson. “These ideas are often absent from the educational landscape in
big cities. The Mayor is going to help us fix that."

“The economic and social pressures on families in America’s cities are
immense,” said Adrian Fenty. “While schools must focus on academic
achievement, we also must ensure students have the survival skills necessary
to succeed outside the school walls. EverFi’s technology platforms across
these necessary skill sets represent a meaningful way to engage with the
private sector to ensure a scalable solution.”

In April 2011, EverFi launched its national education campaign at the
state-level with the addition of the former head of the Democratic Governors
Association, Nathan Daschle, and the former head of the Republican Governors
Association, Nick Ayers. Daschle and Ayers are focused on ensuring that all
Governors and states have an opportunity to participate in this unique
EverFi public-private partnership.

EverFi has launched public-private partnerships in public schools across
major American cities including Houston, Newark, San Francisco, San Diego,
Atlanta, Richmond, and St. Louis. “This is the single most aggressive
education initiative undertaken by a private-sector company in many years.
We need all the help that we can get,” said Davidson.
