Explanation of Responses:

1. The filing of this Form 3 shall not be construed as an admission that Frigate Ventures LP ("Frigate"), Admiralty Advisors LLC, the general partner of Frigate ("Admiralty"), Bruce R. Winson, the manager of Admiralty, M5V Advisors Inc. ("M5V"), Adam Spears, a director of M5V, or Moez Kassam, a director of M5V, is or was for the purposes of Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or otherwise the beneficial owner of any of the Common Stock, $0.001 par value (the "Common Stock"), of School Specialty, Inc. (the "Issuer") purchased by a private investment fund advised by Frigate and M5V (the "Fund"). Pursuant to Rule 16a-1, all of Frigate, Admiralty, Mr. Winson, M5V, Mr. Spears and Mr. Kassam disclaim such beneficial ownership.

2. Frigate and M5V hold indirectly 113,562 shares of Common Stock of the Issuer through the Fund, for which Frigate and M5V are the Investment Advisors. Admiralty and Bruce R. Winson report the Common Stock held indirectly by the Fund because, as the general partner of Frigate and the manager of Admiralty, respectively, at the time of purchase, they controlled the disposition and voting of the securities. Mr. Spears and Mr. Kassam report the Common Stock held indirectly by the Fund because, as the directors of M5V, at the time of purchase, they controlled the disposition and voting of the securities.
