The PEP Program offers our customers the utmost flexibility in educating each employee. The PEP Program allows customers to train identified individuals through an unlimited number of MicroStrategy instructor-led and online course offerings under one payment structure.

For one annual fee, members of the program can develop MicroStrategy expertise by attending as many instructor-led courses as applicable, or by taking as many online courses as they need to be successful during the development and implementation process. By offering an element of flexibility into our education services, MicroStrategy enables customers to properly educate key personnel and to ensure those individuals' skills remain up-to-date. The PEP Program is the most cost-effective training solution available to an individual. See the PEP Program's full list of benefits.

The PEP Program consists of Education Passes for two named users. An Education Pass is valid for 12 months and entitles the pass holder to:

• Attend an unlimited number of regularly scheduled MicroStrategy instructor-led courses offered at public training locations throughout the country of purchase.
• Subscribe to MicroStrategy's Learning Management System to access MicroStrategy online courses.

Once a customer becomes a member of the PEP Program, additional passes can be purchased per named user for access to instructor-led courses and online courses. PEP Program membership (2 full passes for a total of $6,600) is required prior to purchasing additional PEP subscriptions or PEP Online subscriptions.

Note: The PEP Program automatically renews each year upon expiration of the current term. PEP members must provide written notice to MicroStrategy Education at least 90 days before the expiration date of the current term to cancel their renewal. Please send an email to PEP@microstrategy.com.

The PEP Program is currently offered in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, Europe and Latin America. International pricing is available. Please contact your Account Executive for more information on this program in your country.
