NAVIENT CORPORATION

Preliminary Note: Due to the relative significance of Navient Corporation (“Navient”) to SLM Corporation (“Existing SLM”), among other factors, Navient will be treated as the “accounting successor” to Existing SLM for financial reporting purposes, notwithstanding the legal form of the separation described in the information statement filed herewith as Exhibit 99.1. As a result, the historical financial statements of Existing SLM will become the historical financial statements of Navient. Accordingly, and consistent with Staff Legal Bulletin No. 4, Navient will qualify as a “well-known seasoned issuer” immediately following the separation based on the reporting history of Existing SLM under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
