Ladies and Gentlemen:

          College Loan LLC (the “Depositor”) has filed a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission relating to the issuance and sale from time to time of up to $3,000,000,000 of student loan asset-backed notes. College Loan Corporation, a California corporation (“College Loan”), is the sole economic member of the Depositor. The Depositor proposes to cause College Loan Corporation Trust I, a Delaware statutory trust (the “Issuer”), to issue and to sell pursuant to this Underwriting Agreement (this “Agreement”) to UBS Securities LLC, Citigroup Global Markets Inc., Goldman, Sachs & Co. and J.P. Morgan Securities Inc. (each, an “Underwriter” and collectively, the “Underwriters”) $1,390,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its Student Loan Asset-Backed Notes, Series 2006-1A-1 Senior Notes, Series 2006-1A-2 Senior Notes, Series 2006-1A-3 Senior Notes, Series 2006-1A-4 Senior Notes, Series 2006-1A-5 Senior Notes, Series 2006-1A-6 Senior Notes, Series 2006-1A-IO and Series 2006-1B Subordinate Notes (together, the “Series 2006-1 Registered Notes”) in the classes and initial principal or notional amounts set forth on Schedule A hereto. The Series 2006-1 Registered Notes will be issued under a Second Amended and Restated Indenture of Trust, dated as of April 1, 2006 (as previously supplemented and amended, the “Base Indenture”), and a related Seventh Supplemental Indenture of Trust, dated as of April 1, 2006 (collectively with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”), among the Issuer, Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, a New York banking corporation, as eligible lender trustee on behalf of the Issuer (the “Eligible Lender Trustee”), and Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, a New York banking corporation, as indenture trustee (the “Trustee”). Simultaneously with the issuance of the Series 2006-1 Registered Notes, the Issuer will be issuing its Student Loan Asset-Backed Notes, Series 2006-1A-7A Senior Notes and Series 2006-1A-7B Senior Notes (the “Series 2006-1 Non-Registered Notes” and, collectively with the Series 2006-1 Registered Notes, the “Series 2006-1 Notes”) pursuant to the Indenture. In addition, the Issuer has previously issued $5,853,000,000 of its Student Loan Asset-Backed Notes (the “Prior Notes”) pursuant to the Indenture. Upon issuance, the Series 2006-1 Notes, together with the Prior Notes and any future Student Loan Asset-Backed Notes issued pursuant to the Indenture (collectively, the “Notes”), will be secured by, among other things, Financed Student Loans (as defined in the Indenture) pledged to the Trustee and described in the Prospectus and the Disclosure Package (each as defined in Section 3 below). The Financed Student Loans will initially be serviced by ACS Education Services, Inc. (“ACS” or a “Servicer”) (formerly known as AFSA Data Corporation), Great Lakes Educational Loan Services, Inc.

          The Issuer, through the Eligible Lender Trustee, has acquired certain of the Financed Loans from College Loan pursuant to an Amended and Restated FFELP Loan Purchase Agreement (the “College Loan Student Loan Purchase Agreement”) with College Loan and its eligible lender trustee (the “College Loan Eligible Lender Trustee”). The Issuer, through the Eligible Lender Trustee, will acquire certain of the Financed Loans from the Depositor pursuant to a FFELP Loan Purchase Agreement (the “Depositor Student Loan Purchase Agreement”) with the Depositor and its eligible lender trustee (the “Depositor Eligible Lender Trustee”). The Depositor, through the Depositor Eligible Lender Trustee, will acquire certain of the Financed Student Loans to be sold to the Issuer pursuant to the Depositor Loan Student Loan Purchase Agreement from (i) College Loan (a “Seller”), (ii) College Loan Warehouse LLC (“Warehouse LLC” or a “Seller”), (iii) College Loan Gold Funding LLC (“Gold Funding LLC” or a “Seller”), (iv) College Loan Royal Funding LLC (“Royal Funding LLC” or a “Seller”) and (v) College Loan Swiss Funding LLC (“Swiss Funding LLC” or a “Seller”), acting through their respective eligible lender trustees (each a “Seller Eligible Lender Trustee”). The Depositor and the Depositor Eligible Lender Trustee have entered into separate FFELP Loan Purchase Agreements with each Seller and its respective Seller Eligible Lender Trustee (referred to herein as the “Seller Student Loan Purchase Agreements”).

          Administrative services for the Issuer will be performed by College Loan (in its capacity as administrator, the “Administrator”) pursuant to an Administration Agreement, dated as of March 1, 2002 (the “Administration Agreement”), among the Issuer, Wilmington Trust Company, as Delaware Trustee (the “Delaware Trustee”), the Trustee, the Eligible Lender Trustee and the Administrator.

The Issuer has complied with the requirements of Rule 433 under the Securities Act applicable to any “issuer free writing prospectus” (as defined in Rule 433(h)(1) under the Securities Act), including timely filing with the Commission, retention where required and legending.


           4.      Agreements of the Issuer. The Issuer agrees with each of the Underwriters as follows:

     (a)      The Issuer will prepare a supplement to the Prospectus setting forth the amount of the Series 2006-1 Registered Notes covered thereby and the terms thereof not otherwise specified in the Prospectus, the price at which the Series 2006-1 Registered Notes are to be purchased by the Underwriters, either the initial public offering price or the method by which the price at which the Series 2006-1 Registered Notes are to be sold will be determined, the selling concessions and reallowances, if any, and such other information as the Underwriters and the Issuer deem appropriate in connection with the offering of the Series 2006-1 Registered Notes, and the Issuer will timely file such supplement to the prospectus with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act, but the Issuer will not file any amendments to the Registration Statement as in effect with respect to the Series 2006-1 Registered Notes or any amendments or supplements to the Prospectus, or any “free writing prospectus” to the extent required by Rule 433(d) under the Securities Act, unless it shall first have delivered copies of such amendments or supplements or “free writing prospectus” to the Underwriters, with reasonable opportunity to comment on such proposed amendment or supplement, or if the Underwriters or their counsel shall have reasonably objected thereto promptly after receipt thereof; the Issuer will immediately advise the Underwriters or the Underwriters’ counsel (i) when notice is received from the SEC that any post effective amendment to the Registration Statement has become or will become effective; and (ii) of any order or communication suspending or preventing, or threatening to suspend or prevent, the offer and sale of the Series 2006-1 Registered Notes or of any proceedings or examinations that may lead to such an order or communication, whether by or of the SEC or any authority administering any state securities or Blue Sky law, as soon as the Issuer is advised thereof, and will use its best efforts to prevent the issuance of any such order or communication and to obtain as soon as possible its lifting, if issued. The Issuer will comply with the requirements of Rule 433 under the Securities Act applicable to any “issuer free writing prospectus,” including timely filing with the Commission, retention where required and legending.


     (b)      If at any time following the issuance of an “issuer free writing prospectus” or when the Prospectus is required to be delivered under the Securities Act, any event occurred or occurs as a result of which such “issuer free writing prospectus” would conflict with the information in the Registration Statement or Prospectus, or the Prospectus as then amended or supplemented would include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances then prevailing, not misleading, or if it is necessary at any time to amend or supplement the Prospectus to comply with the Securities Act or the Rules and Regulations, the Issuer promptly will notify each of the Underwriters of such event and will promptly prepare and file with the SEC, at its own expense, an “issuer free writing prospectus” or amendment or supplement to such Prospectus or other document that will correct such statement or omission or an amendment that will effect such compliance. Neither the Underwriters’ consent to, nor the Underwriters’ delivery of, any such amendment or supplement shall constitute a waiver of any of the conditions set forth in Section 6 hereof.


     (c)      The Issuer will immediately inform the Underwriters (i) of the receipt by the Issuer of any communication from the SEC or any state securities authority concerning the offering or sale of the Series 2006-1 Registered Notes; and (ii) of any threatened lawsuit or proceeding or of the commencement of any lawsuit or proceeding to which the Issuer is a party relating to the offering or sale of the Series 2006-1 Registered Notes.


     (d)      The Issuer will furnish to the Underwriters, without charge, copies of the Registration Statement (including all documents and exhibits thereto or incorporated by reference therein), the Disclosure Package, the Prospectus, and all amendments and supplements to such documents relating to the Series 2006-1 Registered Notes, in each case in such quantities as the Underwriters may reasonably request.


     (e)      No amendment or supplement will be made to the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package or Prospectus which the Underwriters shall not previously have been advised or to which it shall reasonably object after being so advised.


     (f)      The Issuer will cooperate with the Underwriters and with their counsel in connection with the qualification of, or procurement of exemptions with respect to, the Series 2006-1 Registered Notes for offering and sale by the Underwriters and by dealers under the securities or Blue Sky laws of such jurisdictions as the Underwriters may designate and will file such consents to service of process or other documents necessary or appropriate in order to effect such qualification or exemptions; provided that in no event shall the Issuer be obligated to qualify to do business in any jurisdiction where it is not now so qualified or to take any action which would subject it to service of process in suits, other than those arising out of the offering or sale of the Series 2006-1 Registered Notes, in any jurisdiction where it is not now so subject.


     (g)      The Issuer consents to the use, in accordance with the securities or Blue Sky laws of such jurisdictions in which the Series 2006-1 Registered Notes are offered by the Underwriters and by dealers, of the Initial Preliminary Prospectus Supplement, the Disclosure Package and the Prospectus furnished by the Issuer.


     (h)      To the extent, if any, that the rating or ratings provided with respect to the Series 2006-1 Registered Notes by the rating agency or agencies that initially rate the Series 2006-1 Registered Notes is conditional upon the furnishing of documents or the taking of any other actions by the Issuer, the Issuer shall cause to be furnished such documents and such other actions to be taken.


     (i)      So long as any of the Series 2006-1 Registered Notes are outstanding, the Issuer will furnish to the Underwriters (i) as soon as available, a copy of each document relating to the Series 2006-1 Registered Notes required to be filed with the SEC pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or any order of the SEC thereunder; and (ii) such other information concerning the Issuer as the Underwriters may request from time to time.


     (j)      If this Agreement shall terminate or shall be terminated after execution and delivery pursuant to any provisions hereof (otherwise than by notice given by the Underwriters terminating this Agreement pursuant to Section 9 or 10 hereof) or if this Agreement shall be terminated by the Underwriters because of any failure or refusal on the part of the Issuer to comply with the terms or fulfill any of the conditions of this Agreement, the Issuer agrees to reimburse the Underwriters for all out of pocket expenses (including fees and expenses of their counsel) reasonably incurred by it in connection herewith, but without any further obligation on the part of the Issuer for loss of profits or otherwise.


     (k)      The net proceeds from the sale of the Series 2006-1 Notes hereunder will be applied substantially in accordance with the description set forth in the Disclosure Package and the Prospectus.


     (l)      Except as stated in this Agreement, the Disclosure Package and the Prospectus, the Issuer has not taken, nor will it take, directly or indirectly, any action designed to or that might reasonably be expected to cause or result in stabilization or manipulation of the price of the Series 2006-1 Registered Notes to facilitate the sale or resale of the Series 2006-1 Registered Notes.


     (m)      On or before each date that Financed Student Loans are pledged under the Indenture, the Issuer shall mark its accounting and other records, if any, relating to the Financed Student Loans and shall cause each Servicer to mark their respective computer records relating to the Financed Student Loans to show the absolute ownership by the Eligible Lender Trustee, as eligible lender of, and the interest of the Issuer in, the Financed Student Loans, and the Issuer shall not take, or shall permit any other person to take, any action inconsistent with the ownership of, and the interest of the Issuer in, the Financed Student Loans, other than as permitted by the Basic Documents.


     (n)      For the period beginning on the date of this Agreement and ending 90 days hereafter, none of the Issuer and any entity affiliated, directly or indirectly, with the Issuer will, without the prior written notice to the Underwriters, offer to sell or sell notes (other than the Series 2006-1 Notes) collateralized by Financed Student Loans.


     (o)      If, at the time the Registration Statement became effective, any information shall have been omitted therefrom in reliance upon Rule 430A under the Securities Act, then, immediately following the execution of this Agreement, the Issuer will prepare, and file or transmit for filing with the Commission in accordance with such Rule 430A and Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act, copies of an amended Prospectus containing all information so omitted.


     (p)      As soon as practicable, but not later than 16 months after the date of this Agreement, the Issuer will make generally available to its securityholders an earnings statement covering a period of at least 12 months beginning after the later of (i) the effective date of the Registration Statement; (ii) the effective date of the most recent post effective amendment to the Registration Statement to become effective prior to the date of this Agreement; and (iii) the date of the Issuer’s most recent Annual Report or Form 10-K filed with the Commission prior to the date of this Agreement, which will satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act.


     (q)      The Depositor and College Loan acknowledge and agree that the Underwriters are acting solely in the capacity of an arm’s length contractual counterparty to the Depositor and College Loan with respect to the offering of the Series 2006-1 Notes contemplated hereby (including in connection with determining the terms of the offering) and not as a financial advisor or a fiduciary to, or an agent of, the Depositor, College Loan or any other person. Additionally, none of the Underwriters are advising the Depositor, College Loan or any other person as to any legal, tax, investment, accounting or regulatory matters in any jurisdiction with respect to the transactions contemplated herein. The Depositor and College Loan shall consult with their own advisors concerning such matters and shall be responsible for making their own independent investigation and appraisal of the transactions contemplated hereby, and the Underwriters shall have no responsibility or liability to the Depositor or College Loan with respect thereto. Any review by the Underwriters of the Depositor or College Loan, the transaction contemplated hereby or other matters relating to such transactions will be performed solely for the benefit of the Underwriters and shall not be on behalf of the Depositor or College Loan.


           5.       Representations and Warranties of the Underwriters. Each of the Underwriters, severally and not jointly, hereby represents and warrants to and agrees with the Issuer, severally and not jointly, that:

     (a)      other than the Initial Preliminary Prospectus Supplement, the Disclosure Package, the Road Show Material and the Prospectus, it has not, without the prior written approval of the Issuer, conveyed or delivered any written material of any kind to any potential investor in the Series 2006-1 Registered Notes that would constitute (i) a prospectus satisfying the requirements of Rule 430B under the Securities Act, (ii) a “free writing prospectus”, or (iii) any “ABS informational and computational material” as defined in Item 1101(a) of Regulation AB under the Securities Act; provided, however that an Underwriter may have conveyed to one or more potential investors written material containing only (i) information permitted in Rule 134 under the Securities Act, (ii) a column or other entry showing the status of the subscriptions for each series of the Series 2006-1 Registered Notes, (iii) expected pricing parameters of the Series 2006-1 Notes, (iv) weighted average lives of any series of the Series 2006-1 Registered Notes, and (v) expected maturities of any series of the Series 2006-1 Registered Notes, in the case of clauses (ii) through (v) such written material shall not contain information that would require the Issuer to file such written material as a “free writing prospectus” pursuant to Rule 433 under the Securities Act unless a copy thereof is timely provided to the Issuer for filing;


     (b)      it has only communicated or caused to be communicated any invitation or inducement to engage in investment activity (within the meaning of section 21 if the Financial Services Markets Act 2000 (the “FSMA”)), received by it in connection with the issue or sale of the Series 2006-1 Registered Notes in circumstances in which section 21(1) of the FSMA does not apply to the Company; and


     (c)      it has complied, and will comply, in all material respects, with all applicable provisions of the FSMA with respect to anything done by it in relation to the Series 2006-1 Registered Notes in, from or otherwise involving the United Kingdom.


           6.       Indemnification and Contribution.

     (a)      College Loan agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each of the Underwriters and each person, if any, who controls an Underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (or actions in respect thereof) arising out of or based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement, the Initial Preliminary Prospectus Supplement, the Disclosure Package, the Prospectus, the Road Show Material, the Static Pool Data, or in any amendment or supplement to any of the foregoing, or in the case of the Registration Statement or in any amendment or supplement thereto, arising out of or based upon any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and in the case of the Initial Preliminary Prospectus Supplement, the Disclosure Package, the Prospectus, the Road Show Material, the Static Pool Data, or in any amendment or supplement to any of the foregoing, arising out of or based upon any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, and will reimburse each Underwriter for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Underwriter in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action as such expenses are incurred, except insofar as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses arise out of or are based upon (i) any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission of a material fact which has been made therein or omitted therefrom in reliance upon and in conformity with the information relating to an Underwriter furnished in writing to the Issuer or College Loan by such Underwriter expressly for use therein, it being understood that the only such information furnished by any Underwriter consists of the information described as such in Section 11 hereof, or (ii) a material error or omission from the mathematical calculations performed by the Underwriters (but not the data or the assumptions used to make such calculations, which the parties agree constitutes College Loan information) and used to derive the percentages, dates or terms presented in the tables entitled “Weighted Average Lives and Expected Maturity Dates of the Series 2006-1 LIBOR Rate Offered Notes at Various Percentages of the PPC” and the six tables entitled “Percentages of Original Principal of the Notes Remaining at Certain Quarterly Distribution Dates at Various Percentages of the PPC” with respect to the Series 2006-1A-1 Senior Notes, the Series 2006-1A-2 Senior Notes, the Series 2006-1A-3 Senior Notes, the Series 2006-1A-4 Senior Notes, the Series 2006-1A-5 Senior Notes and the Series 2006-1A-6 Senior Notes and contained under the heading “Prepayment, Yield and Maturity Considerations” in the Term Sheet, the Preliminary Prospectus Supplement and the Prospectus Supplement (all of the foregoing tables and percentages, dates and terms contained therein collectively, the “Collateral Based Calculation Tables”). The foregoing indemnity provisions shall be in addition to any liability which College Loan or the Issuer may otherwise have.


     (b)      If any action, suit or proceeding shall be brought against an Underwriter or any person controlling an Underwriter in respect of which indemnity may be sought against College Loan, such Underwriter or such controlling person shall promptly notify the parties against whom indemnification is being sought (the “indemnifying parties”), but the omission so to notify the indemnifying party will not relieve it from any liability which it may have to any indemnified party under this Section, except to the extent that the indemnifying party is materially prejudiced by such omission, provided further, that the failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve the indemnifying party from any liability which it may have to the indemnified otherwise than under this Section. In case any such action is brought against any indemnified party and it notifies the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it may wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel satisfactory to such indemnified party (who shall not, except with the consent of the indemnified party, be counsel to the indemnifying party). The applicable Underwriter or any such controlling person shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such action, suit or proceeding and to participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Underwriter or such controlling person unless (i) the indemnifying parties have agreed in writing to pay such fees and expenses; (ii) the indemnifying parties have failed to assume the defense and employ counsel; or (iii) the named parties to any such action, suit or proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both the Underwriter or such controlling person and the indemnifying parties and the Underwriter or such controlling person shall have been advised by its counsel that there may be one or more legal defenses available to it which are different from or additional to or in conflict with those available to the indemnifying parties and in the reasonable judgment of such counsel it is advisable for the Underwriter or such controlling person to employ separate counsel (in which case the indemnifying party shall not have the right to assume the defense of such action, suit or proceeding on behalf of the Underwriter or such controlling person). It is understood, however, that the indemnifying parties shall, in connection with any one such action, suit or proceeding or separate but substantially similar or related actions, suits or proceedings in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances, be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of only one separate firm of attorneys (in addition to any local counsel) at any time for each Underwriter and controlling persons not having actual or potential differing interests with such Underwriter or among themselves, which firm shall be designated in writing by such Underwriter, and that all such fees and expenses shall be reimbursed on a monthly basis as provided in paragraph (a) of this Section. An indemnifying party will not, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any pending or threatened claim, action, suit or proceeding in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder (whether or not the indemnified parties are actual or potential parties to such claim or action) unless such settlement, compromise or consent (A) includes an unconditional release of each indemnified party from all liability arising out of such claim, action, suit or proceeding; and (B) does not include a statement as to, or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of an indemnified party.


     (c)      Each Underwriter, severally and not jointly, agrees to indemnify and hold harmless College Loan and its directors and officers, and any person who controls College Loan within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, to the same extent as the indemnity from College Loan to the Underwriters set forth in paragraph (a) of this Section, but only with respect to information relating to such Underwriter furnished in writing by such Underwriter expressly for use in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, the Initial Preliminary Prospectus Supplement, the Disclosure Package, or any amendment or supplement to any of the foregoing, it being understood that the only such information furnished by any Underwriter consists of the information described as such in Section 11 hereof (except to the extent such untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission in such Initial Preliminary Prospectus Supplement, the Disclosure Package or the Prospectus is based upon or results from errors, mistakes or omissions in information provided by College Loan to the Underwriters) and specifically excludes the Collateral Based Calculation Tables. If any action, suit or proceeding shall be brought against College Loan, any of its directors or officers, or any such controlling person based on the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, the Disclosure Package or any amendment or supplement thereto, or any related preliminary prospectus and in respect of which indemnity may be sought against an Underwriter pursuant to this paragraph (c), such Underwriter shall have the rights and duties given to College Loan by paragraph (b) of this Section (except that if College Loan shall have assumed the defense thereof the Underwriter shall have the option to assume such defense but shall not be required to do so, but may employ separate counsel therein and participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at such Underwriter’s expense), and College Loan, its directors and officers, and any such controlling person shall have the rights and duties given to the Underwriters by paragraph (b) of this Section. The foregoing indemnity provisions shall be in addition to any liability which the Underwriters may otherwise have.


     (d)      If the indemnification provided for in this Section is unavailable to an indemnified party under paragraph (a) or (c) of this Section in respect of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses referred to therein, then an indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by College Loan on the one hand and the applicable Underwriter on the other hand from the offering of the Series 2006-1 Registered Notes; or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of College Loan on the one hand and the applicable Underwriter on the other in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by College Loan on the one hand and an Underwriter on the other shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the offering of the Series 2006-1 Registered Notes (before deducting expenses) received by the Issuer bear to the total underwriting discounts and commissions received by such Underwriter. The relative fault of College Loan on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other hand shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by College Loan or the Issuer on the one hand or by an Underwriter on the other hand and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.


     (e)      College Loan and the Underwriters agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section were determined by a pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in paragraph (d) of this Section. The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses referred to in paragraph (d) of this Section shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating any claim or defending any such action, suit or proceeding. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section, no Underwriter shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total underwriting discounts and commissions received by such Underwriter with respect to the Series 2006-1 Registered Notes underwritten by such Underwriter exceed the sum of the amount of any damages which such Underwriter has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The Underwriters’ obligations in this paragraph (e) to contribute are several in proportion to their respective underwriting obligations.


     (f)      Any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses for which an indemnified party is entitled to indemnification or contribution under this Section shall be paid by the indemnifying party to the indemnified party as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses are incurred. The indemnity and contribution agreements contained in this Section and the representations and warranties of College Loan and the Underwriters set forth in this Agreement shall remain operative and in full force and effect, regardless of (i) any investigation made by or on behalf of the Underwriters, College Loan or any person controlling any of them or their respective directors or officers; (ii) acceptance of any Series 2006-1 Registered Notes and payment therefor hereunder; and (iii) any termination of this Agreement. A successor to the Underwriters, College Loan or any person controlling any of them or their respective directors or officers, shall be entitled to the benefits of the indemnity, contribution and reimbursement agreements contained in this Section.


           7.      Conditions of the Underwriters’ Obligations. The obligations of the Underwriters to purchase the Series 2006-1 Registered Notes hereunder are subject to the following conditions precedent:

     (a)      All actions required to be taken and all filings required to be made by the Issuer under the Securities Act prior to the sale of the Series 2006-1 Registered Notes shall have been duly taken or made. At and prior to the Closing Date, no stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement shall have been issued and no proceedings for that purpose shall have been instituted or, to the knowledge of the Issuer or the Underwriters, shall be contemplated by the Commission.


     (b)      Subsequent to the effective date of this Agreement, there shall not have occurred (i) any change, or any development or event involving a prospective change, in or affecting the condition (financial or other), business, properties, net worth, or results of operations of the Issuer, a Servicer, a Guarantee Agency (A) not contemplated by the Registration Statement or (B) relating to the matters described in the Preliminary Prospectus Supplement and/or the Prospectus Supplement under the heading “Information Relating to the Guarantee Agencies” or to College Loan, which in the opinion of the Underwriters, would materially adversely affect the market for the Series 2006-1 Registered Notes; (ii) any downgrading in the rating of any debt securities of the Issuer, the Servicers, a Guarantee Agency described in the Prospectus Supplement under the heading “Information Relating to the Guarantee Agencies” or College Loan by any nationally recognized statistical rating organization or any public announcement that any such organization has under surveillance or review its rating of any debt securities of the Issuer, the Servicers, a Guarantee Agency described in the Preliminary Prospectus Supplement and/or the Prospectus Supplement under the heading “Information Relating to the Guarantee Agencies” or College Loan (other than an announcement with positive implications of a possible upgrading, and no implication of a possible downgrading, of such rating); or (iii) any event or development which makes any statement made in the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package or the Prospectus untrue or which, in the opinion of the Issuer and its counsel or the Underwriters and their counsel, requires the filing of any amendment to or change in the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package or the Prospectus in order to state a material fact required by any law to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein not misleading, if amending or supplementing the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package or the Prospectus to reflect such event or development would, in the opinion of the Underwriters, materially adversely affect the market for the Series 2006-1 Registered Notes.


     (c)      You shall have received an opinion addressed to you of Stroock & Stroock & Lavan LLP, in its capacity as counsel to the Issuer, dated the Closing Date, in form and substance satisfactory to you and your counsel with respect to the status of the Issuer, to each Basic Document to which the Issuer is a party and to the validity of the Series 2006-1 Notes and such related matters as you shall reasonably request.

     (h)      You shall have received opinions addressed to you of The Simmons Firm, ALC, as counsel to College Loan with respect to College Loan, dated the Closing Date and satisfactory in form and substance to you and your counsel, to the effect that:


     (i)      College Loan is a corporation in good standing under the laws of the State of California; having the full power and authority, corporate and other, to own its properties and conduct its business, as presently conducted by it, and to enter into and perform its obligations under each of the Basic Documents to which it is a party.


     (ii)      The Basic Documents to which College Loan is a party have been authorized, executed and delivered by appropriate officers acting for and on behalf of College Loan. Assuming authorization, execution and delivery by appropriate officers acting for and on behalf of the other parties thereto, each such agreement is legal, valid and binding upon College Loan, enforceable against College Loan in accordance with their respective terms, except (A) the enforceability thereof may be subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws now or hereafter in effect relating to creditors’ rights; and (B) remedy of specific performance and injunctive and other forms of equitable relief may be subject to equitable defenses and to the discretion of the court before which any proceeding therefor may be brought.

In no event shall the Delaware Trustee or any other Person have any power to (i) vary the investment of the Certificateholders in the Trust Certificates or to substitute new investments or reinvest so as to enable the Trust to take advantage of variations in the market to improve the investment of the Certificateholders in the Trust Certificates; or (ii) agree to any change in the terms of a Financed Student Loan that would be a “significant modification” within the meaning of § 1.1001-3 of the Treasury Regulations (or any successor regulation), unless an opinion of nationally recognized tax counsel, obtained at the sole expense of the party requesting an action otherwise prohibited by clause (i) or (ii) of this sentence and delivered to the Delaware Trustee, states that such action would (A) not cause the Trust Certificates to be treated other than as set forth in Section 2.06 hereof for federal and relevant state tax purposes; (B) not cause the Notes to be treated other than as debt of the Trust for federal and relevant state purposes; and (C) not otherwise cause additional federal or relevant state tax to be imposed upon the Certificateholders, the Holders of the Notes, the Delaware Trustee or the Trust. In furtherance of such purpose, the Certificateholders hereby authorize the Delaware Trustee to complete, sign and timely file any documents, returns, forms or reports as may be required by federal or relevant state or local taxing authorities affirming such treatment of the Trust and as shall be presented to the Trustee in final form for execution.

It is the intention of the parties hereto that, solely for purposes of federal income taxes, state and local income and franchise taxes, and any other taxes imposed on, measured by or based upon gross or net income, (i) if there is only one Certificateholder, the Trust shall be treated as a disregarded entity separate from its owner pursuant to § 301.7701-2(c)(2) of the Treasury Regulations, (ii) if there is more than one Certificateholder, the Trust shall be treated as a partnership, (iii) the Notes shall be treated as debt of the partnership and (iv) the provisions of this Trust Agreement shall be construed in accordance with such intent. The parties hereto agree to take no action inconsistent with such treatment, unless required otherwise by applicable law. Effective as of the date hereof, the Delaware Trustee shall have all rights, powers and duties set forth herein and in the Delaware Business Trust Act with respect to accomplishing the purposes of the Trust.

           Section 2.07. Liability of the Certificateholders. The Certificateholders shall not have any personal liability for any liability or obligation of the Trust, except as provided in Article VIII hereof.

             (f)       The Trust shall act solely in its Trust name and through its duly authorized officers or agents in the conduct of its business, shall prepare all Trust correspondence in the Trust name, shall hold itself out as a separate entity from any other Person, shall conduct its business so as not to mislead others as to the identity of the entity with which they are concerned and shall correct any known misunderstanding regarding its separate identity.

The books of the Trust may be kept (subject to any provision contained in any applicable statutes) inside or outside the State of Delaware at such place or places as may be designated from time to time by the Trust.

             (h)       The Trust shall take such actions as may be necessary to authorize all of its actions as may be required by law.

ARTICLE III

TRUST CERTIFICATES AND TRANSFER OF INTERESTS

           Section 3.01. Initial Beneficial Ownership. Upon the formation of the Trust by the contribution by the Sponsor pursuant to Section 2.05 hereof and until the issuance of the Trust Certificates, the Sponsor shall be the sole beneficial owner of the Trust.

           Section 3.02. The Trust Certificates. The Trust Certificates shall be issued as physical fully registered certificates in minimum Percentage Interests of 10%, substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto and shall be executed on behalf of the Trust by manual or facsimile signature of an authorized officer of the Delaware Trustee, upon the order of the Sponsor to the Delaware Trustee. Such Trust Certificates shall represent the entire undivided beneficial ownership interest in the Trust Estate, subject to the debt represented by the Notes. Trust Certificates bearing the manual or facsimile signatures of individuals who were, at the time when such signatures shall have been affixed, authorized to sign on behalf of the Trust, shall be valid and binding obligations of the Trust, notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them shall have ceased to be so authorized prior to the authentication and delivery of such Trust Certificates or did not hold such offices at the date of authentication and delivery of such Trust Certificates. Upon issuance, the Trust Certificates shall be deemed fully-paid and non-assessable.

           Section 3.03. Authentication of Trust Certificate. Concurrently with the initial contribution of the Sponsor to the Trust pursuant to Section 2.05 hereof, the Delaware Trustee shall cause a Trust Certificate, in an aggregate Percentage Interest of 100%, to be executed on behalf of the Trust, authenticated and delivered to or upon the written order of the Sponsor, signed by its manager, its president or any vice president, without further action by the Sponsor. No Trust Certificate shall entitle its holder to any benefit under this Trust Agreement, or shall be valid for any purpose, unless there shall appear on such Trust Certificate a certificate of authentication substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit A hereto executed by the Delaware Trustee by manual signature; such authentication shall constitute conclusive evidence that such Trust Certificate shall have been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder. All Trust Certificates shall be dated the date of their authentication. No further Trust Certificates shall be issued except pursuant to Section 3.04 or 3.05 hereof.

           Section 3.04. Registration of Transfer and Exchange of Trust Certificates. The Certificate Registrar shall keep or cause to be kept, at the office or agency maintained pursuant to Section 3.08 hereof, a Certificate Register in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Delaware Trustee shall provide for the registration of the Trust Certificates and of transfers and exchanges of the Trust Certificates as herein provided. The Delaware Trustee shall be the initial Certificate Registrar.

           Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Trust Certificate at the office or agency maintained pursuant to Section 3.08 hereof, the Delaware Trustee shall execute, authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Trust Certificates in authorized denominations of a like Percentage Interest dated the date of authentication by the Delaware Trustee or any authenticating agent. At the option of a Certificateholder, Trust Certificates may be exchanged for other Trust Certificates of authorized denominations of a like Percentage Interest upon surrender of the Trust Certificates to be exchanged at the office or agency maintained pursuant to Section 3.08 hereof.

           Every Trust Certificate presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange shall be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Delaware Trustee and the Certificate Registrar duly executed by the Certificateholder or his attorney duly authorized in writing. Each Trust Certificate surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange shall be canceled and subsequently disposed of by the Delaware Trustee in accordance with its customary practice.

           No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of the Trust Certificates, but the Delaware Trustee or the Certificate Registrar may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of Trust Certificates.

           The Trust Certificates and any beneficial interest in such Trust Certificates may not be acquired by or with the assets of (a) employee benefit plans, retirement arrangements, individual retirement accounts or Keogh plans subject to either Title I of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, or Section 4975 of the Code; or (b) entities (including insurance company general accounts) whose underlying assets include plan assets by reason of the investment by any such plans, arrangements or accounts in such entities (a “Benefit Plan Investor”). Each transferee of a Trust Certificate shall be required to represent substantially in the form of the Representation Letter attached hereto as Exhibit B (i) that it is not a Benefit Plan Investor and is not acquiring such Trust Certificate with the assets of a Benefit Plan Investor; and (ii) that if such Trust Certificate is subsequently deemed to be a plan asset, it will dispose of such Trust Certificate. Each Trust Certificate shall bear a legend referring to the restrictions contained in this paragraph.

           Section 3.05. Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Trust Certificates. If (a) any mutilated Trust Certificate shall be surrendered to the Certificate Registrar, or if the Certificate Registrar shall receive evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Trust Certificate, and (b) there shall be delivered to the Certificate Registrar and the Delaware Trustee such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them harmless, then in the absence of notice that such Trust Certificate shall have been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Delaware Trustee on behalf of the Trust shall execute and the Delaware Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in exchange for or in lieu of any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Trust Certificate, a new Trust Certificate of like Percentage Interest. In connection with the issuance of any new Trust Certificate under this Section, the Delaware Trustee and the Certificate Registrar may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection therewith. Any duplicate Trust Certificate issued pursuant to this Section shall constitute conclusive evidence of ownership in the Trust, as if originally issued, whether or not the lost, stolen or destroyed Trust Certificate shall be found at any time.

           Section 3.06. Persons Deemed Owners. Prior to due presentation of a Trust Certificate for registration of transfer, the Delaware Trustee or the Certificate Registrar and any agent of any thereof may treat the Person in whose name any Trust Certificate shall be registered in the Certificate Register as the owner of such Trust Certificate for the purpose of receiving distributions pursuant to Section 5.01 hereof and for all other purposes whatsoever, and neither the Delaware Trustee, the Certificate Registrar nor any agent of any thereof shall be bound by any notice to the contrary.

           Section 3.07. Access to List of Certificateholders’ Names and Addresses. The Delaware Trustee shall furnish or cause to be furnished to the Sponsor, within 15 days after receipt by the Delaware Trustee of a request therefore from the Sponsor in writing, a list in such form as the Sponsor may reasonably require, of the names and addresses of the Certificateholders as of the most recent Record Date. If three or more Certificateholders or one or more Certificateholders evidencing not less than 25% of the aggregate Percentage Interests apply in writing to the Delaware Trustee, and such application states that the applicants desire to communicate with other Certificateholders with respect to their rights under this Trust Agreement or under the Trust Certificates and such application is accompanied by a copy of the communication that such applicants propose to transmit, then the Delaware Trustee shall, within five Business Days after the receipt of such application, afford such applicants access during normal business hours to the current list of Certificateholders. Upon receipt of any such application, the Delaware Trustee will promptly notify the Sponsor by providing a copy of such application and a copy of the list of Certificateholders produced in response thereto. Each Certificateholder, by receiving and holding a Trust Certificate, shall be deemed to have agreed not to hold any of the Sponsor, the Certificate Registrar or the Delaware Trustee accountable or liable by reason of disclosure of its name and address, regardless of the source form which such information was derived.

           Section 3.08. Maintenance of Office or Agency. The Delaware Trustee shall maintain, either with itself or with an affiliate, in Wilmington, Delaware, an office or offices or agency or agencies where Trust Certificates may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange and where notices and demands to or upon the Delaware Trustee in respect of the Trust Certificates and the other Basic Documents may be served. The Delaware Trustee initially designates its Corporate Trust Office as the location for such purposes. The Delaware Trustee shall give prompt written notice to the Sponsor and to the holders of the Trust Certificates of any change in the location of the Certificate Register or any such office or agency.

           Section 3.09. Appointment of Certificate Paying Agent. The Certificate Paying Agent shall make distributions to the Certificateholders from the amounts received from the Indenture Trustee for such purpose pursuant to the Indenture and shall report the amounts of such distributions to the Delaware Trustee. Any Certificate Paying Agent shall have the revocable power to receive such funds from the Indenture Trustee for the purpose of making the distributions referred to above. The Delaware Trustee may revoke such power and remove the Certificate Paying Agent if the Delaware Trustee determines in its sole discretion that the Certificate Paying Agent shall have failed to perform its obligations under this Trust Agreement in any material respect. The Certificate Paying Agent shall initially be the Delaware Trustee, and any co-paying agent chosen by the Delaware Trustee, and acceptable to the Indenture Trustee (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld). The Delaware Trustee shall be permitted to resign as Certificate Paying Agent upon 30 days’ written notice to the Issuer Administrator. In the event that the Delaware Trustee shall no longer be the Certificate Paying Agent, the Delaware Trustee shall, with the written consent of the Sponsor, appoint a successor to act as Certificate Paying Agent (which shall be a bank or trust company). The Delaware Trustee shall cause such successor Certificate Paying Agent or any additional Certificate Paying Agent appointed by the Delaware Trustee to execute and deliver to the Delaware Trustee an instrument in which such successor Certificate Paying Agent or additional Certificate Paying Agent shall agree with the Delaware Trustee that as Certificate Paying Agent, such successor Certificate Paying Agent or additional Certificate Paying Agent will hold all sums, if any, held by it for payment to the Certificateholders in trust for the benefit of the Certificateholders until such sums shall be paid to such Certificateholders. The Certificate Paying Agent shall return all unclaimed funds to the Delaware Trustee and upon removal of a Certificate Paying Agent such Certificate Paying Agent shall also return all funds in its possession to the Delaware Trustee. The provisions of Sections 7.01, 7.03, 7.04, 7.05 and 8.01 hereof shall apply to the Delaware Trustee also in its role as Certificate Paying Agent, for so long as the Delaware Trustee shall act as Certificate Paying Agent and, to the extent applicable, to any other paying agent appointed hereunder. Any reference in this Trust Agreement to the Certificate Paying Agent shall include any co-paying agent unless the context requires otherwise.

           Section 3.10. Restrictions on Transfer.

             (a)       The Trust Certificates may not be offered or sold except to institutional “accredited investors” (as defined in Rule 501(a)(1)-(3) or (7) under the Securities Act) who are U.S. Persons (as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) in reliance on an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act.

          The Trust Certificates have not been registered or qualified under the Securities Act, or any state securities law. No transfer, sale, pledge or other disposition of any Trust Certificate shall be made unless such disposition is made pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act and effective registration or qualification under applicable state securities laws, or is made in a transaction which does not require such registration or qualification. In the event that a transfer is to be made in reliance upon an exemption from the Securities Act, the Delaware Trustee may require, in order to assure compliance with the Securities Act, that the Certificateholder’s prospective transferee certify to the Delaware Trustee in writing the facts surrounding such disposition. Unless the Delaware Trustee requests otherwise, such certification shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit B hereto. In the event that such certification of facts does not on its face establish the availability of an exemption under the Securities Act, the Delaware Trustee may require an opinion of counsel satisfactory to it that such transfer may be made pursuant to an exemption from the Securities Act, which opinion of counsel shall not be an expense of the Delaware Trustee or of the Trust.

             (b)        Each Trust Certificate will bear a legend substantially to the following effect:

“THIS TRUST CERTIFICATE HAS NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”) OR ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THE HOLDER HEREOF, BY PURCHASING THIS TRUST CERTIFICATE, AGREES THAT THIS TRUST CERTIFICATE MAY BE RESOLD, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED ONLY IN ACCORDANCE WITH ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS AND (1) TO A PERSON WHO THE SELLER REASONABLY BELIEVES IS AN INSTITUTIONAL ACCREDITED INVESTOR WITHIN THE MEANING OF RULE 501(a)(1)-(3) or (7) UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT THAT PURCHASES FOR ITS OWN ACCOUNT OR FOR THE ACCOUNT OF AN INSTITUTIONAL ACCREDITED INVESTOR, OR (2) PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT.

THIS TRUST CERTIFICATE MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY TO (1) EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS, RETIREMENT ARRANGEMENTS, INDIVIDUAL RETIREMENT ACCOUNTS OR KEOGH PLANS SUBJECT TO EITHER TITLE I OF THE EMPLOYEE RETIREMENT INCOME SECURITY ACT OF 1974, AS AMENDED, OR SECTION 4975 OF THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE OF 1986, AS AMENDED, OR (2) ENTITIES (INCLUDING INSURANCE COMPANY GENERAL ACCOUNTS) WHOSE UNDERLYING ASSETS INCLUDE PLAN ASSETS BY REASON OF THE INVESTMENT BY SUCH PLANS, ARRANGEMENTS OR ACCOUNTS IN SUCH ENTITIES. FURTHER, THIS TRUST CERTIFICATE MAY BE TRANSFERRED ONLY TO A UNITED STATES PERSON WITHIN THE MEANING OF SECTION 7701(a)(30) OF THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE OF 1986, AS AMENDED.

THIS TRUST CERTIFICATE DOES NOT REPRESENT DEPOSITS OR OBLIGATIONS OF OR ANY INTEREST IN COLLEGE LOAN LLC OR WILMINGTON TRUST COMPANY.

THIS TRUST CERTIFICATE IS NOT GUARANTEED OR INSURED BY THE FEDERAL DEPOSIT INSURANCE CORPORATION OR ANY GOVERNMENTAL AGENCY.”

             (c)       No transfer shall be effective if immediately after such transfer there would be more than one hundred Beneficial Owners of Certificates. Any purported transfer in violation of the provisions of this Section 3.10(c) shall be void ab initio and the Delaware Trustee shall have no liability in connection with a transfer in violation of the provisions of this Section 3.10(c).

           Section 4.02. Action by the Certificateholders with Respect to Certain Matters. The Delaware Trustee shall not have the power, except upon the direction of each Certificateholder, to (a) remove or replace the Eligible Lender Trustee, any Servicer, the Issuer Administrator or any other administrator or (b) except as expressly provided in the Basic Documents, sell the Financed Student Loans after the termination of the Indenture.

           Section 4.04. Restrictions on Certificateholders’ Power. The Certificateholders shall not direct the Delaware Trustee to take or refrain from taking any action if such action or inaction would be contrary to any obligation of the Trust or the Delaware Trustee under this Trust Agreement or any of the other Basic Documents or would be contrary to Section 2.03 hereof nor shall the Delaware Trustee be permitted to follow any such direction, if given.

           Section 4.05. Majority Control. Except as expressly provided herein, any action that may be taken by the Certificateholders under this Trust Agreement may be taken by the Certificateholders of Trust Certificates evidencing not less than a majority of the Percentage Interests.

ARTICLE V

APPLICATION OF TRUST FUNDS; CERTAIN DUTIES

             Section 5.01. Application of Trust Funds.

             (a)       On each date that the Delaware Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, receives funds from the Indenture Trustee pursuant to the Indenture (a “Distribution Date”), the Delaware Trustee shall first withdraw from such funds and pay to the Delaware Trustee its fees and expenses due under Section 8.01 hereof and second distribute the remainder of such funds to the Certificateholders on such Distribution Date, pro rata based upon their Percentage Interests. All such funds to be distributed to the Delaware Trustee shall be wired in accordance with wiring instructions provided to the Indenture Trustee by the Delaware Trustee.

             (b)       In the event that any withholding tax is imposed on the Trust’s payment (or allocations of income) to a Certificateholder, such tax shall reduce the amount otherwise distributable to the Certificateholder in accordance with this Section. The Delaware Trustee is hereby authorized and directed to retain from amounts otherwise distributable to such Certificateholders sufficient funds for the payment of any tax that is legally owed by the Trust (but such authorization shall not prevent the Delaware Trustee from contesting any such tax in appropriate proceedings, and withholding payment of such tax, if permitted by law, pending the outcome of such proceedings). The amount of any withholding tax imposed with respect to a Certificateholder shall be treated as cash distributed to such Certificateholder at the time it is withheld by the Trust to be remitted to the appropriate taxing authority. If there is a possibility that withholding tax is payable with respect to a distribution (such as a distribution to a non-U.S. Certificateholder), the Delaware Trustee in its sole discretion may (but unless otherwise required by law shall not be obligated to) withhold such amounts in accordance with this paragraph (b). In the event that a Certificateholder wishes to apply for a refund of any such withholding tax, the Delaware Trustee shall reasonably cooperate with such Certificateholder in making such claim so long as such Certificateholder agrees to reimburse the Delaware Trustee for any out-of-pocket expenses incurred.

           Section 5.02. Method of Payment. Subject to Section 9.01(c) hereof, distributions required to be made to Certificateholders on any Distribution Date shall be made to each Certificateholder of record on the preceding Record Date by wire transfer, in immediately available funds, to the account of such Certificateholder at a bank or other entity having appropriate facilities therefor, if such Certificateholder shall have provided to the Certificate Registrar appropriate written instructions signed by two authorized officers, if any, at least five Business Days prior to such Distribution Date, which may be standing instructions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the final distribution in respect of any Trust Certificate will be payable only upon presentation and surrender of such Trust Certificate at the Corporate Trust Office of the Delaware Trustee or such other location specified in writing to the Certificateholder thereof.

           Section 5.03. No Segregation of Moneys; No Interest. Subject to Section 5.01 hereof, moneys received by the Delaware Trustee hereunder need not be segregated in any manner except to the extent required by law, Section 2.12 hereof, or the any Basic Document and may be deposited under such general conditions as may be prescribed by law, and the Delaware Trustee shall not be liable for any interest thereon.

           Section 5.04. Accounting and Reports to the Holders, Certificateholder, the Internal Revenue Service and Others. The Delaware Trustee shall deliver to the Certificateholders (and to each Person who was a Certificateholder at any time during the applicable calendar year), as may be required by the Code and applicable Treasury Regulations, such information as may be required to enable the Certificateholder to prepare its Federal and state income tax returns. Consistent with the Trust’s characterization for Federal income tax purposes, so long as there is only one Certificateholder, as a disregarded entity, no Federal income tax return shall be filed on behalf of the Trust unless either (a) the Trust, the Indenture Trustee, the Delaware Trustee, the Sponsor and, if different, the Certificateholder receive an opinion of counsel based on a change in applicable law occurring after the date hereof that the Code requires such a filing; (b) the Internal Revenue Service shall determine that the Trust is required to file such a return; or (c) there should be more than one Beneficial Owner of Certificates. In the event that the Trust is required to file tax returns, the Delaware Trustee shall elect under Section 1278 of the Code to include in income currently any market discount that accrues with respect to the Financed Student Loans. The Delaware Trustee shall, if there is more than one Certificateholder or if it is otherwise required to file a return in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence, prepare or cause to be prepared any tax returns required to be filed by the Trust consistent with maintaining its characterization, for Federal income tax purposes, as set forth in Section 2.06 hereof and make such elections as may from time to time be required or appropriate under any applicable state or Federal statute or rule or regulation thereunder so as to maintain such characterization. The Delaware Trustee shall remit such returns to Certificateholders at least five days before such returns are due to be filed. The Certificateholders, or any other such party required by law, shall promptly sign such returns and deliver such returns after signature to the Delaware Trustee and such returns shall be filed by, or at the direction of, the Delaware Trustee with the appropriate tax authorities. In no event shall the Certificateholders be liable for any liabilities, costs or expenses of the Trust arising out of the application of any tax law, including federal, state, foreign or local income or excise taxes or any other tax imposed on or measured by income (or any interest, penalty or addition with respect thereto or arising from a failure to comply therewith), except for any such liability, cost or expense attributable to the Certificateholder’s breach of its obligations under this Trust Agreement.

           Section 5.05. Signature on Returns; Tax Matters Partner. The Delaware Trustee shall sign on behalf of the Trust the tax returns of the Trust, unless applicable law requires a Certificateholder to sign such documents, in which case such documents shall be signed by such Certificateholder.

ARTICLE VI

AUTHORITY AND DUTIES OF DELAWARE TRUSTEE

           Section 6.01. General Authority. The Delaware Trustee is authorized to execute and deliver the Notes and the Basic Documents to which the Trust is to be a party and each certificate or other document attached as an exhibit to or contemplated by the Basic Documents to which the Trust is to be a party, in each case, in such form as the Sponsor shall approve as evidenced conclusively by the Delaware Trustee’s execution thereof, and, on behalf of the Trust, to direct the Indenture Trustee to authenticate and deliver any Notes issued pursuant to a Supplemental Indenture. The Delaware Trustee is also authorized and directed on behalf of the Trust (a) to acquire the Financed Student Loans and to transfer legal title to the Financed Student Loans to the Eligible Lender Trustee in accordance with the Eligible Lender Trust Agreement, (b) to follow the direction of and cooperate with any Servicer or subservicer to the extent necessary to enable such Servicer or subservicer to fulfill its obligations under the related Servicing Agreement or subservicing agreement and (c) to cooperate with the Issuer Administrator and any other administrator in submitting, pursuing and collecting any claims to and with the Department of Education with respect to any Interest Subsidy Payments and Special Allowance Payments relating to the Financed Student Loans.

           In addition to the foregoing, the Delaware Trustee is authorized, but shall not be obligated, to take all actions required of the Trust pursuant to the Basic Documents. The Delaware Trustee is further authorized from time to time to take such action as the Issuer Administrator or any other administrator directs or instructs with respect to the Basic Documents and is directed to take such action to the extent that the Issuer Administrator or such other administrator is expressly required pursuant to the Basic Documents to cause the Delaware Trustee to act.

           Section 6.02. General Duties. It shall be the duty of the Delaware Trustee to discharge (or cause to be discharged) all its responsibilities pursuant to the terms of this Trust Agreement and to administer the Trust in the interest of the Certificateholders, subject to and in accordance with the provisions of this Trust Agreement and the other Basic Documents. Without limiting the foregoing, the Delaware Trustee shall on behalf of the Trust file and prove any claim or claims that may exist on behalf of the Trust against the Sponsor in connection with any claims paying procedure as part of an insolvency or a receivership proceeding involving the Sponsor. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Delaware Trustee shall be deemed to have discharged its duties and responsibilities hereunder and under the other Basic Documents to the extent the Issuer Administrator or any other administrator has agreed in the Administration Agreement or the related administration agreement, as applicable, to perform any act or to discharge any duty of the Delaware Trustee hereunder or under any other Basic Document, and the Delaware Trustee shall not be held liable for the default or failure of the Issuer Administrator or any other administrator to carry out its obligations under the Administration Agreement or related administration agreement, as applicable. The Delaware Trustee shall have no obligation to administer, service or collect the Financed Student Loans or to maintain, monitor or otherwise supervise the administration, servicing or collection of the Financed Student Loans.

           Section 6.03. Action Upon Instruction.

             (a)       Subject to Article IV and Sections 2.12 and 7.01 hereof and in accordance with the terms of the Basic Documents, the Certificateholders may by written instruction direct the Delaware Trustee in the management of the Trust. Such direction may be exercised at any time by written instruction of the Certificateholders pursuant to this Trust Agreement.

             (b)       The Delaware Trustee shall not be required to take any action hereunder or under any other Basic Document if the Delaware Trustee shall have reasonably determined, or shall have been advised by counsel, that such action is likely to result in liability on the part of the Delaware Trustee or is contrary to the terms hereof or of any other Basic Document or is otherwise contrary to law.

             (c)       Whenever the Delaware Trustee is unable to determine the appropriate course of action between alternative courses of action permitted or required by the terms of this Trust Agreement or under any other Basic Document, the Delaware Trustee shall promptly give notice (in such form as shall be appropriate under the circumstances) to the Certificateholders requesting instruction as to the course of action to be adopted, and to the extent the Delaware Trustee acts in good faith in accordance with any written instruction of the Certificateholders received, the Delaware Trustee shall not be liable on account of such action to any Person. If the Delaware Trustee shall not have received appropriate instruction within 10 days of such notice (or within such shorter period of time as reasonably may be specified in such notice or may be necessary under the circumstances) it may, but shall be under no duty to, take or refrain from taking such action, not inconsistent with this Trust Agreement or the other Basic Documents, as it shall deem to be in the best interests of the Certificateholders, and shall have no liability to any Person for such action or inaction.

             (d)       In the event that the Delaware Trustee is unsure as to the application of any provision of this Trust Agreement or any other Basic Document or any such provision is ambiguous as to its application, or is, or appears to be, in conflict with any other applicable provision, or in the event that this Trust Agreement permits any determination by the Delaware Trustee or is silent or is incomplete as to the course of action that the Delaware Trustee is required to take with respect to a particular set of facts, the Delaware Trustee may give notice (in such form as shall be appropriate under the circumstances) to the Certificateholders requesting instruction and, to the extent that the Delaware Trustee acts or refrains from acting in good faith in accordance with any such instruction received, the Delaware Trustee shall not be liable, on account of such action or inaction, to any Person. If the Delaware Trustee shall not have received appropriate instruction within 10 days of such notice (or within such shorter period of time as reasonably may be specified in such notice or may be necessary under the circumstances) it may, but shall be under no duty to, take or refrain from taking such action, not inconsistent with this Trust Agreement or the other Basic Documents, as it shall deem to be in the best interests of the Certificateholders, and shall have no liability to any Person for such action or inaction.

           Section 6.04. No Duties Except as Specified in this Trust Agreement, any other Basic Document or in Instructions.

             (a)       The Delaware Trustee shall not have any duty or obligation to manage, make any payment with respect to, register, record, sell, service, dispose of or otherwise deal with the Trust Estate, or to otherwise take or refrain from taking any action under, or in connection with, any document contemplated hereby to which the Delaware Trustee is a party, except as expressly provided by the terms of this Trust Agreement, or in any document or written instruction received by the Delaware Trustee pursuant to Section 6.03 hereof; and no implied duties or obligations shall be read into this Trust Agreement or any other Basic Document against the Delaware Trustee. The Delaware Trustee shall have no responsibility for filing any financing or continuation statement in any public office at any time or to otherwise perfect or maintain the perfection of any security interest or lien granted to it hereunder or to prepare or file any Commission filing for the Trust or to record this Trust Agreement or any other Basic Document. The Delaware Trustee nevertheless agrees that it will, at its own cost and expense, promptly take all action as may be necessary to discharge any liens on any part of the Trust Estate that result from actions by, or claims against it in its individual capacity that are not related to the ownership or the administration of the Trust Estate.

             (b)       The duties and responsibilities of the Delaware Trustee shall be as provided by this Trust Agreement. No provision of this Trust Agreement shall require the Delaware Trustee to expand or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if it shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it. The Delaware Trustee shall not be liable for its acts or omissions hereunder except as a result of gross negligence or willful misconduct. To the extent that, at law or in equity, the Delaware Trustee has duties (including fiduciary duties) and liabilities relating thereto to the Trust or to the Certificateholders, the Delaware Trustee shall not be liable to the Trust or to any Certificateholder for the Delaware Trustee’s good faith reliance on the provisions of this Trust Agreement. The provisions of this Trust Agreement, to the extent that they restrict the duties and liabilities of the Delaware Trustee otherwise existing at law or in equity, are agreed by the Sponsor and the Certificateholders to replace such other duties and liabilities of the Delaware Trustee.

           Section 6.05. No Action Except Under Specified Documents or Instructions. The Delaware Trustee shall not manage, control, use, sell, service, dispose of or otherwise deal with any part of the Trust Estate except (a) in accordance with the powers granted to and the authority conferred upon the Delaware Trustee pursuant to this Trust Agreement, (b) in accordance with this Trust Agreement and (c) in accordance with any document or instruction delivered to the Delaware Trustee pursuant to Section 6.03 hereof.

           Section 6.06. Restrictions.

             (a)       The Delaware Trustee shall not take any action (i) that is inconsistent with the purposes of the Trust set forth in Section 2.03 hereof or (ii) that, to the actual knowledge of the Delaware Trustee, would result in the Trust’s becoming taxable as a corporation for Federal income tax purposes. The Certificateholders shall not direct the Delaware Trustee to take action that would violate the provisions of this Section.

             (b)       The Delaware Trustee may engage in or possess an interest in other business ventures of any nature or description, independently or with others, similar or dissimilar to the business of the Trust, and the Trust and the Certificateholders shall have no rights by virtue of this Trust Agreement in and to such independent ventures or the income or profits derived therefrom, and the pursuit of any such venture, even if competitive with the business of the Trust, shall not be deemed wrongful or improper. The Delaware Trustee shall not be obligated to present any particular investment or other opportunity to the Trust even if such opportunity is of a character that, if presented to the Trust, could be taken by the Trust, and the Delaware Trustee shall have the right to take for its own account (individually or as a partner or fiduciary) or to recommend to others any such particular investment or other opportunity. The Delaware Trustee may engage in or be interested in any financial or other transaction with the Sponsor or any Affiliate of the Sponsor, or may act as depository, trustee or agent for securities or other obligations of the Sponsor or its Affiliates.

           The Delaware Trustee agrees to provide all reasonable cooperation and assistance to the Sponsor in the event of appointment of a successor Delaware Trustee.

           Section 10.03. Successor Delaware Trustee.

           No successor Delaware Trustee shall accept appointment as provided in this Section unless at the time of such acceptance such successor Delaware Trustee shall be eligible pursuant to Section 10.01 hereof.

           Section 10.05. Appointment of Co-Delaware Trustee or Separate Delaware Trustee. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Trust Agreement, at any time, for the purpose of meeting any legal requirements of any jurisdiction in which any part of the Trust may at the time be located, the Issuer Administrator and the Delaware Trustee acting jointly shall have the power and shall execute and deliver all instruments to appoint one or more Persons approved by the Delaware Trustee, meeting the eligibility requirements of Section 10.01 hereof, to act as co-trustee, jointly with the Delaware Trustee, or separate trustee or separate trustees, of all or any part of the Trust Estate, and to vest in such Person, in such capacity, such title to the Trust Estate, or any part thereof, and, subject to the other provisions of this Section, such powers, duties, obligations, rights and trusts as the Issuer Administrator and the Delaware Trustee may consider necessary or desirable. If the Issuer Administrator shall not have joined in such appointment within 15 days after the receipt by it of a request so to do, the Delaware Trustee acting alone shall have the power to make such appointment. No co-trustee or separate trustee under this Trust Agreement shall be required to meet the terms of eligibility as a successor trustee pursuant to clauses (d) through (e) of Section 10.01 hereof and no notice of the appointment of any co-trustee or separate trustee shall be required pursuant to Section 10.03 hereof.

           Each separate trustee and co-trustee shall, to the extent permitted by law, be appointed and act subject to the following provisions and conditions:

             (a)       all rights, powers, duties, and obligations conferred or imposed upon the Delaware Trustee shall be conferred upon and exercised or performed by the Delaware Trustee and such separate trustee or co-trustee jointly (it being understood that such separate trustee or co-trustee is not authorized to act separately without the Delaware Trustee joining in such act), except to the extent that under any law of any jurisdiction in which any particular act or acts are to be performed, the Delaware Trustee shall be incompetent or unqualified to perform such act or acts, in which event such rights, powers, duties, and obligations (including the holding of title to the Trust or any portion thereof in any such jurisdiction) shall be exercised and performed singly by such separate trustee or co-trustee, solely at the direction of the Delaware Trustee;

             (b)       no trustee under this Trust Agreement shall be personally liable by reason of any act or omission of any other trustee under this Trust Agreement; and

             (c)       the Issuer Administrator and the Delaware Trustee acting jointly may at any time accept the resignation of or remove any separate trustee or co-trustee.

           Any notice, request or other writing given to the Delaware Trustee shall be deemed to have been given to each of the then separate trustees and co-trustees, as effectively as if given to each of them. Every instrument appointing any separate trustee or co-trustee shall refer to this Trust Agreement and the conditions of this Article. Each separate trustee and co-trustee, upon its acceptance of the trusts conferred, shall be vested with the estates or property specified in its instrument of appointment, either jointly with the Delaware Trustee or separately, as may be provided therein, subject to all the provisions of this Trust Agreement, specifically including every provision of this Trust Agreement relating to the conduct of, affecting the liability of, or affording protection to, the Delaware Trustee. Each such instrument shall be filed with the Delaware Trustee and a copy thereof given to the Issuer Administrator.

           Any separate trustee or co-trustee may at any time appoint the Delaware Trustee as its agent or attorney-in-fact with full power and authority, to the extent not prohibited by law, to do any lawful act under or in respect of this Trust Agreement on its behalf and in its name. If any separate trustee or co-trustee shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all its estates, properties, rights, remedies and trusts shall vest in and be exercised by the Delaware Trustee, to the extent permitted by law, without the appointment of a new or successor trustee.

           3.        It is a U.S. Person as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code.

           5.        It understands that the Trust Certificates will be offered in a transaction not involving any public offering within the meaning of the Securities Act, and that, if in the future it decides to resell, pledge or otherwise transfer any Trust Certificates, such Trust Certificates may be resold, pledged or transferred only (a) to a person who the seller reasonably believes is an institutional “accredited investor” as defined in Rule 501(a)(1)-(3) or (7) under the Securities Act that purchases for its own account or for the account of another institutional accredited investor or (b) pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act.

           6.        It understands that the Trust Certificate will bear a legend substantially to the following effect:

The Issuer may, in a Supplemental Indenture, appoint an Authenticating Agent for the purpose of receiving, authenticating and delivering Notes in connection with transfers, exchanges and registrations as herein provided. Unless an Authenticating Agent is designated to serve in such capacity pursuant to a Supplemental Indenture or is otherwise directed, and agrees, to so serve in accordance with an Issuer Order, the Trustee shall be Note Registrar for the purpose of registering Notes and transfer of Notes as herein provided. At reasonable times and under reasonable regulations established by the Note Registrar, the Note Register may be inspected and copied by the Issuer or by the Holders (or a designated representative thereof) of 10% or more in Principal Amount of Notes then Outstanding.

          The Trustee and any Authenticating Agent shall adhere, with respect to transfer of Notes, to the standards for efficiency in transfer agent performance established in Securities and Exchange Commission Rules 17Ad-2 through 17Ad-7 under the Exchange Act, most particularly Rule 17Ad-2, which requires that registered transfer agents process at least 90% of routine items (such as certificates presented for transfer) received during any month within three business days of their receipt.

          Upon surrender for transfer or exchange of any Note at the Principal Office of the Note Registrar or at the Principal Office of any Authenticating Agent, or on a Tender Date with respect to Notes which are required to be tendered for purchase, whether or not surrendered on such date, the Issuer shall execute, and the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent, as the case may be, shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, including transferees designated by a Tender Agent with respect to Notes required to be tendered for purchase, or in exchange for the Note surrendered, one or more new fully registered Notes of any authorized denomination or denominations, of like aggregate Principal Amount, of the same series, having the same Stated Maturity and interest rate and bearing numbers not previously assigned.

          All Notes executed, delivered and authenticated pursuant to the preceding paragraph shall be registered in the name of the Holder presenting the Note for exchange or the designated transferee, as the case may be, on the Note Register on the date of such transfer or exchange.

          All Notes surrendered upon any exchange or transfer provided for in this Indenture shall be promptly canceled by the Trustee upon receipt thereof from the Note Registrar or the Authenticating Agent, as the case may be, and thereafter disposed of as directed by Issuer Order.

          All Notes issued upon any transfer or exchange of Notes, including Notes issued in lieu of Notes required to be tendered for purchase on a Tender Date, whether or not surrendered, shall be the valid obligations of the Issuer evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same security and benefits under this Indenture, as the Notes surrendered upon such transfer or exchange or in lieu of which such Notes were issued.

          Every Note presented or surrendered for transfer or exchange shall be duly endorsed, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Note Registrar or the Authenticating Agent, as the case may be, duly executed, by the Holder thereof or his, her or its attorney duly authorized in writing, with such signature guaranteed by an “eligible guarantor institution” meeting the requirements of the Note Registrar or the Authenticating Agent, as the case may be, which requirements include membership or participation in a “signature guarantee program” determined by the Note Registrar or the Authenticating Agent, as the case may be, in accordance with the Exchange Act, and such other documents as the Trustee may require.

          The Issuer may require payment by the Noteholder of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of Notes, other than exchanges upon a partial redemption of, or distribution of principal with respect to, a Note not involving any transfer. All other expenses incurred by the Issuer, the Trustee, the Note Registrar or the Authenticating Agent in connection with any transfer or exchange of Notes shall be paid by the Issuer.

          Except in connection with a Tender Date, the Issuer shall not be required to transfer any Note (a) during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before any selection of Notes of the same series for redemption and ending at the close of business on the day of such selection, (b) selected for redemption in whole or in part, (c) after receipt by the Tender Agent of a properly completed demand for purchase of such Note in accordance with the Supplemental Indenture pursuant to which it was issued and through the corresponding Tender Date, or (d) on or after the date notice of a Tender Date is given and through such Tender Date. In the event that a Note is transferred in connection with a Tender Date either during the period referred to in clause (a) or after being selected for redemption in whole or in part, the Note Registrar or the Authenticating Agent, as appropriate, shall give written notice to any transferee thereof that such Note may be, or has been, selected for redemption, as the case may be.

          The Book-Entry Notes (a) shall be delivered by the Issuer to the Depository or, pursuant to the Depository’s instructions, shall be delivered by the Issuer on behalf of the Depository to and deposited with the DTC Custodian, and in each case shall be registered in the name of Cede & Co. and (b) shall bear a legend substantially to the following effect:

          “Unless this Note is presented by an authorized representative of The Depository Trust Company, a New York corporation (“DTC”), to the Note Registrar or its agent for registration of transfer, exchange or payment, and any Note issued is registered in the name of Cede & Co. or in such other name as is requested by an authorized representative of DTC (and any payment is made to Cede & Co. or to such other entity as is requested by an authorized representative of DTC), ANY TRANSFER, PLEDGE OR OTHER USE HEREOF FOR VALUE OR OTHERWISE BY OR TO ANY PERSON IS WRONGFUL inasmuch as the registered owner hereof, Cede & Co., has an interest herein.”

          The Book-Entry Notes may be deposited with such other Depository as the Issuer may from time to time designate, and shall bear such legend as may be appropriate; provided that such successor Depository maintains a book-entry system that qualifies to be treated as “registered form” under Section 163(f)(3) of the Code.

          The Issuer and the Trustee are hereby authorized to execute and deliver a Letter of Representations with the Depository relating to the Notes of each series.

          With respect to Notes registered in the Note Register in the name of Cede & Co., as nominee of the Depository, the Issuer and the Trustee shall have no responsibility or obligation to Direct or Indirect Participants or beneficial owners for which the Depository holds Notes from time to time as a Depository. Without limiting the immediately preceding sentence, the Issuer and the Trustee shall have no responsibility or obligation with respect to (a) the accuracy of the records of the Depository, Cede & Co., or any Direct or Indirect Participant with respect to the ownership interest in the Notes; (b) the delivery to any Direct or Indirect Participant or any other Person, other than a registered Holder of a Note; (c) the payment to any Direct or Indirect Participant or any other Person, other than a registered Holder of a Note as shown in the Note Register, of any amount with respect to any distribution of principal or interest on the Notes; or (d) the making of book-entry transfers among Participants of the Depository with respect to Notes registered in the Note Register in the name of the nominee of the Depository. No Person other than a registered Holder of a Note as shown in the Note Register shall receive a Note evidencing such Note.

          Upon delivery by the Depository to the Trustee of written notice to the effect that the Depository has determined to substitute a new nominee in place of Cede & Co., and subject to the provisions hereof with respect to the payment of distributions by the mailing of checks or drafts to the registered Holders of Notes appearing as registered Owners in the Note Register, the name “Cede & Co.” in this Indenture shall refer to such new nominee of the Depository.

          In the event that (a) the Depository or the Issuer advises the Trustee in writing that the Depository is no longer willing or able to discharge properly its responsibilities as nominee and depository with respect to the Book-Entry Notes and the Issuer is unable to locate a qualified successor; or (b) the Issuer at its sole option elects to terminate the book-entry system through the Depository, the Book-Entry Notes shall no longer be restricted to being registered in the Note Register in the name of Cede & Co. (or a successor nominee) as nominee of the Depository. At that time, the Issuer may determine that the Book-Entry Notes shall be registered in the name of and deposited with a successor depository operating a global book-entry system, as may be acceptable to the Issuer, or such depository’s agent or designee but, if the Issuer does not select such alternative global book-entry system, then upon surrender to the Note Registrar of the Book-Entry Notes by the Depository, accompanied by the registration instructions from the Depository for registration, the Trustee shall at the Issuer’s expense authenticate Individual Notes. Neither the Issuer nor the Trustee shall be liable for any delay in delivery of such instructions and may conclusively rely on, and shall be protected in relying on, such instructions. Upon the issuance of Individual Notes, the Trustee, the Note Registrar, the Issuer, any Paying Agent, the Depositor and the Sponsor shall recognize the Holders of the Individual Notes as Noteholders hereunder.

          Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture to the contrary, so long as any Book-Entry Notes are registered in the name of Cede & Co., as nominee of the Depository, all distributions of principal and interest on such Book-Entry Notes and all notices with respect to such Book-Entry Notes shall be made and given, respectively, in the manner provided in the applicable Letter of Representations.

          Subject to the preceding paragraphs, upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Note at the office of the Note Registrar and, upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth below, the Issuer shall execute in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, a new Note of the same Principal Amount and dated the date of authentication by the Trustee. The Note Registrar, if not the Trustee, shall notify the Trustee of any such transfer.

          By acceptance of an Individual Note or a Note which has not been registered under the Securities Act, whether upon original issuance or subsequent transfer, each holder of such a Note acknowledges the restrictions on the transfer of such Note set forth in the Securities Legend and agrees that it will transfer such a Note only as provided herein.

          No transfer of any Note shall be made unless such transfer is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws or is made in accordance with said Act and laws. In the event of any such transfer, unless such transfer is made in reliance upon Rule 144A or Regulation S under the Securities Act, (a) the Trustee may require a written opinion of Counsel (which may be in-house counsel) acceptable to and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee that such transfer may be made pursuant to an exemption, describing the applicable exemption and the basis therefor, from the Securities Act and laws or is being made pursuant to the Securities Act and laws, which opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Trustee, the Issuer or the Trust Estate; and (b) the Trustee shall require the transferee to execute a transferee letter certifying to the Issuer and the Trustee the facts surrounding such transfer, which transferee letter shall not be an expense of the Trustee, the Issuer or the Trust Estate. The holder of a Note desiring to effect such transfer shall, and does hereby agree to, indemnify the Trustee and the Issuer against any liability that may result if the transfer is not so exempt or is not made in accordance with such federal and state laws. None of the Issuer, the Trustee, the Depositor or the Sponsor intends or is obligated to register or qualify any Note under the Securities Act or any state securities laws. A Supplemental Indenture may provide further restrictions upon the registration, transfer or exchange of a series of Notes.

          Each Registered Owner and each transferee of a Note shall be deemed to represent and warrant that either (a) it is not acquiring the Note directly or indirectly for, or on behalf of, a plan which is subject to ERISA and/or Section 4975 of the Code, or any entity whose underlying assets are deemed to be plan assets of such a plan; or (b)(i) the acquisition and holding of the Notes will not result in a prohibited transaction under Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code or similar law that is not covered under an individual or class prohibited transaction exemption including, but not limited to, Prohibited Transaction Class Exemption (“PTCE”) 84-14, PTCE 91-38, PTCE 90-1, PTCE 95-60 or PTCE 96-23, and (ii) the Notes are rated investment grade or better at the time of acquisition by such person and such person believes that the Notes are properly treated as indebtedness without substantial equity features for purposes of the “plan assets” regulation set forth at 29 C.F.R. § 2510.3-101 and agrees to so treat the Notes.

           Section 2.08. Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost and Stolen Notes. If a mutilated Note is surrendered to the Trustee or the Note Registrar, the Issuer shall execute and the Trustee or any Authenticating Agent shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a new Note of the same series and of like tenor and Principal Amount, Stated Maturity and interest rate, bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding. If the Issuer, the Note Registrar, any Authenticating Agent and the Trustee receive evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Note, and there is delivered to the Issuer, the Note Registrar, any Authenticating Agent and the Trustee such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the Issuer, the Note Registrar, any Authenticating Agent or the Trustee that such Note has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Issuer shall execute and upon its request the Trustee or any Authenticating Agent shall authenticate and deliver, in exchange for or in lieu of such destroyed, lost or stolen Note, a new Note of the same series and of like tenor, Principal Amount, Stated Maturity and interest rate.

          In case any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note has become or is about to become due and payable, the Issuer in its discretion may, instead of issuing a new Note, pay such Note.

          Every new Note issued pursuant to this Section 2.08 in lieu of any destroyed, lost or stolen Note shall constitute an original additional contractual obligation of the Issuer, whether or not the destroyed, lost or stolen Note shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other Notes of such series duly issued and authenticated hereunder. Neither the Issuer, the Trustee, the Note Registrar nor any Authenticating Agent shall be required to treat both the original Note and any duplicate Note as being Outstanding for the purpose of determining the Principal Amount of Notes which may be issued hereunder or for the purpose of determining any percentage of Notes Outstanding hereunder, but both the original and duplicate Note shall be treated as one and the same.

          Upon the issuance of any new Note under this Section 2.08, the Issuer may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Note Registrar, any Authenticating Agent and the Trustee) connected therewith.

          The provisions of this Section 2.08 are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes.

           Section 2.09. Interest Rights Preserved; Dating of Notes. Each Note delivered under this Indenture upon transfer of or in exchange for or in lieu of any other Note shall carry all the rights to interest accrued and unpaid, and to accrue, which were carried by such other Note. Each Note shall bear an original issue date as provided in the Supplemental Indenture authorizing the issuance of the series of Notes of which such Note is a part and, upon the original delivery of a series of Notes or an exchange or transfer of Notes pursuant to Section 2.07 hereof, the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent, as the case may be, shall date each Note to be delivered as of the date of authentication thereof, except as may be otherwise provided in a Supplemental Indenture with respect to Notes of the series authorized to be issued thereby.

           Section 2.10. Persons Deemed Holders. The Issuer, the Trustee, each Authenticating Agent, each Paying Agent, each Note Registrar, each Tender Agent and any other agent of the Issuer may treat the Person in whose name any Registered Note is registered as the owner of such Note for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of (and premium, if any), interest on and any Carry-Over Amounts (and accrued interest thereon) or Series IO Carry-Over Interest with respect to such Note and (except as may be provided in a Supplemental Indenture with respect to Beneficial Ownership Interests) for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Note be overdue, and neither the Issuer, the Trustee, any Authenticating Agent, any Paying Agent, any Note Registrar, any Tender Agent nor any other agent of the Issuer shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

           Section 2.11. Cancellation. All Notes surrendered for payment, redemption, transfer or exchange, if surrendered to the Trustee, shall be promptly canceled by it, and, if surrendered to any Person other than the Trustee, shall be delivered to the Trustee and, if not already canceled, shall be promptly canceled by it. The Issuer may at any time deliver to the Trustee for cancellation any Notes previously authenticated and delivered hereunder, which Notes so delivered shall be promptly canceled by the Trustee. All canceled Notes held by the Trustee shall be disposed of as directed by an Issuer Order.

           Section 2.12. Credit Enhancement Facilities and Swap Agreements. The Issuer may from time to time, pursuant to a Supplemental Indenture, enter into or obtain the benefit of any Credit Enhancement Facility with respect to any Notes of any series or any Swap Agreement; provided that (a) the Rating Agency Condition is satisfied with respect to any such Credit Enhancement Facility or Swap Agreement and (b) any such Credit Enhancement Facility or Swap Agreement satisfies any conditions specified in a prior Supplemental Indenture. Such Swap Agreement and any Supplemental Indenture in connection therewith shall clearly designate which payment provisions of the Swap Agreement are “amounts due in the ordinary course” and which payments are “termination, indemnity or other similar or extraordinary payments” as such terms are used herein, and the Trustee shall be entitled to rely on such designations.

          Notwithstanding anything in this Indenture to the contrary, (a) any Supplemental Indenture authorizing the execution by the Issuer of a Swap Agreement or Credit Enhancement Facility may include provisions with respect to the application and use of all amounts to be paid thereunder; (b) no amounts paid under any such Credit Enhancement Facility shall be part of the Trust Estate except to the extent, if any, specifically provided in such Supplemental Indenture and no Beneficiaries shall have any rights with respect to any such amounts so paid except as may be specifically provided in such Supplemental Indenture; (c) Notes of one or more series or any portions thereof may be secured by a pledge of any or all amounts payable pursuant to such Credit Enhancement Facility, in the manner and to the extent provided in such Supplemental Indenture, and such Notes may be either Senior Notes or Subordinate Notes for purposes hereof; and (d) except as otherwise provided in the Supplemental Indenture pursuant to which such Credit Enhancement Facility is obtained or such Swap Agreement is entered into, the Issuer’s obligations under any such Credit Enhancement Facility or Swap Agreement shall be limited obligations, payable solely from the revenues and assets of the Issuer pledged therefor under this Indenture.

ARTICLE III

PREPAYMENT OF NOTES

           Section 3.01. Right of Prepayment. The Notes of any series shall be subject to redemption or principal distribution as provided in this Article III and in the Supplemental Indenture creating such series. As used in this Article III and elsewhere in this Indenture, references to “prepay” shall mean to make payments of principal prior to Stated Maturity, and shall be deemed to include references to “redeem” or “make distributions of principal with respect to,” as appropriate.

          Notes which may be prepaid before their Stated Maturity shall be prepaid in accordance with their terms, this Indenture and (except as otherwise provided with respect to the Notes of any particular series by the provisions of the Supplemental Indenture creating such series) in accordance with this Article III.

           Section 3.02. Election To Prepay or Purchase; Notice to Trustee; Senior Asset Requirement and Subordinate Asset Requirement. The election of the Issuer to prepay any Notes or cause any Notes then subject to prepayment to be purchased by the Trustee (other than on a Tender Date) shall be evidenced by an Issuer Order, received by the Trustee no later than ten Business Days prior to the date on which notice of prepayment must be given in order to effect a prepayment on the Prepayment Date established with respect to a series of Notes in the Supplemental Indenture authorizing the issuance of the Notes of such series, stating the Prepayment Date, the Principal Amount, the series of Notes, and, if applicable, the Stated Maturity within a series, to be prepaid.

          Notwithstanding any provision hereof to the contrary but apart from the prepayment of Subordinate Notes which are no longer Outstanding by reason of Section 9.01 hereof or the prepayment of Subordinate Notes on a Sinking Fund Payment Date, no prepayment or purchase (other than on a Tender Date) of Subordinate Notes by the Trustee shall be effected hereunder unless prior to the Trustee giving notice of redemption, transferring moneys to the Retirement Account to make a principal distribution or soliciting a purchase, as the case may be, the Issuer furnishes the Trustee an Issuer Certificate to the effect that, as of the date Subordinate Notes are to be selected for prepayment or purchase or such determination to prepay is made, and after giving effect to such prepayment or purchase, the Senior Asset Requirement will be met. Such Subordinate Notes may be prepaid on the Prepayment Date or purchased on the purchase date therefor if the foregoing conditions are met on the date such Notes are selected for redemption or purchase or as of the date on which moneys are transferred to the Retirement Account to make any distribution of principal with respect to such Notes, whether or not such conditions are met on the Prepayment Date or the date of purchase. Any election to prepay Notes of a series may also be conditioned upon such additional requirements as may be set forth in the Supplemental Indenture authorizing the issuance of such Notes.

          Notwithstanding any provision hereof to the contrary but apart from the prepayment of Junior Subordinate Notes which are no longer Outstanding by reason of Section 9.01 hereof or the prepayment of Junior Subordinate Notes on a Sinking Fund Payment Date, no prepayment or purchase (other than on a Tender Date) of Junior Subordinate Notes by the Trustee shall be effected hereunder unless prior to the Trustee giving notice of redemption, transferring moneys to the Retirement Account to make a principal distribution or soliciting a purchase, as the case may be, the Issuer furnishes the Trustee an Issuer Certificate to the effect that, as of the date Junior Subordinate Notes are to be selected for prepayment or purchase or such determination to prepay is made, and after giving effect to such prepayment or purchase, both the Senior Asset Requirement and the Subordinate Asset Requirement will be met. Such Junior Subordinate Notes may be prepaid on the Prepayment Date or purchased on the purchase date therefor if the foregoing conditions are met on the date such Notes are selected for redemption or purchase or as of the date on which moneys are transferred to the Retirement Account to make any distribution of principal with respect to such Notes, whether or not such conditions are met on the Prepayment Date or the date of purchase. Any election to prepay Notes of a series may also be conditioned upon such additional requirements as may be set forth in the Supplemental Indenture authorizing the issuance of such Notes.

           Section 3.03. Selection by Trustee of Notes To Be Prepaid. Subject to Section 3.02 hereof, Balances deposited to the credit of the Retirement Account to provide for the payment of the Prepayment Price of Notes subject to mandatory redemption, or required distributions of principal with respect to Notes, shall be applied to the payment of Notes of all series subject to such prepayment (or to the reimbursement of any Credit Facility Provider for such payment) in such order of priority as may be established by the Supplemental Indentures pursuant to which such Notes have been issued or, in the absence of direction from such Supplemental Indentures, in the order of the Stated Maturities of such Notes, and among Notes with the same Stated Maturity, in the order in which such Notes were issued.

          If less than all Notes of a series are to be prepaid, the Trustee at the written direction of the Issuer shall select the particular Notes to be prepaid as provided in the Supplemental Indenture providing for the issuance of such Notes. The Trustee may provide for the selection for prepayment of portions of the principal of Notes in the denomination larger than the smallest authorized denomination of the Notes of that series or multiple thereof.

          The Trustee shall promptly notify the Issuer and any Paying Agent in writing of the Notes selected for prepayment and, in the case of any Note selected for partial prepayment, the Principal Amount thereof to be prepaid.

          For all purposes of this Indenture, unless the context otherwise requires, all provisions relating to the prepayment of Notes shall relate, in the case of any Note prepaid or to be prepaid only in part, to the portion of the principal of such Note which has been or is to be prepaid.

           Section 3.04. Notice of Prepayment. Notice of prepayment with respect to any series of Notes shall be given by first-class mail, postage prepaid, mailed by the date specified in the Supplemental Indenture creating such series to each Holder of Notes to be prepaid at the address of such Holder appearing in the Note Register; but neither failure to give such notice nor any defect in any notice so given shall affect the validity of the proceedings for prepayment of any Note not affected by such failure or defect.

          All notices of prepayment shall state:

          (a)       the Prepayment Date;

           (b)      the Prepayment Price;

           (c)      the name (including series designation), Stated Maturity and CUSIP numbers of the Notes to be prepaid, the Principal Amount of Notes of each series to be prepaid, and, if less than all outstanding Notes of a series are to be prepaid, the identification (and, in the case of partial prepayment, the respective Principal Amounts) of the Notes of each series to be prepaid;

           (d)      that, on the Prepayment Date, the Prepayment Price of and accrued interest on each such Note will become due and payable and that interest on each such Note shall cease to accrue on and after such date;

           (e)      the place or places where such Notes are to be surrendered for payment of the Prepayment Price thereof and accrued interest thereon; and

           (f)      if it be the case, that such Notes are to be prepaid by the application of certain specified trust moneys and for certain specified reasons.

          Within 60 days after any Prepayment Date, a second notice of prepayment shall be given, in the manner described above, to the Holder of any Note that was not presented for prepayment within 30 days after the Prepayment Date.

           Section 3.05. Notes Payable on Prepayment Date and Sinking Fund Payment Date. Notice of prepayment having been given as aforesaid, the Notes so to be prepaid shall, on the Prepayment Date, become due and payable at the Prepayment Price specified plus accrued interest thereon to the Prepayment Date and on and after such date (unless the Issuer shall default in the payment of the Prepayment Price and accrued interest) such Notes (or portions thereof) shall cease to bear interest. Upon surrender of any such Note for redemption in accordance with such notice, such Note shall be paid at the Prepayment Price thereof plus (unless the Prepayment Date is a regularly scheduled Interest Payment Date) accrued interest to the Prepayment Date. Installments of interest whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to the Prepayment Date shall continue to be payable to the applicable Noteholder.

          If any Note called for redemption shall not be so paid upon surrender thereof for redemption, the Prepayment Price and, to the extent lawful, interest thereon shall, until paid, bear interest from the Prepayment Date at the rate borne by the Note.

           Section 3.06. Notes Prepaid in Part. Any Note which is to be redeemed only in part shall (except as otherwise provided in the Supplemental Indenture pursuant to which the Notes of such series were issued) be surrendered to the Paying Agent (with, if the Paying Agent so requires, due endorsement by, or a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Paying Agent duly executed by, the Holder thereof or his, her or its attorney duly authorized in writing) and the appropriate officers of the Issuer shall execute and the Trustee or an Authenticating Agent shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder of such Note, without service charge, a new Note or Notes of the same series, of any authorized denomination or denominations, having the same Stated Maturity and interest rate as requested by such Holder, in aggregate Principal Amount equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed portion of the principal of the Note so surrendered.

          Any Note with respect to which a partial distribution of principal is made shall remain Outstanding in the then current Principal Amount. The Trustee shall retain a record of the Principal Amount of each Note any portion of the principal of which has been distributed, and shall give the Note Registrar (if other than the Trustee) prompt written notice of the current Principal Amount of each such Note as of the end of each calendar month.

           Section 3.07. Purchase of Notes. The Issuer may at any time, but subject to Section 3.02 hereof, authorize and direct the Trustee to purchase Notes in the open market out of any funds available for such purpose, such purchases to be made at a price not in excess of the amount specified in this Indenture or, if no amount is specified, the Principal Amount thereof plus accrued interest and any applicable prepayment premium. In addition, the Issuer may, from time to time, direct the Trustee to request the submission of tenders following published notice requesting such submission prior to making the purchases authorized pursuant to this Section 3.07. The Issuer may specify the maximum and minimum period of time which shall transpire between the date upon which such notice is to be given and the date upon which such tenders are to be accepted or may authorize the Trustee to determine the same in its discretion. No tenders shall be considered or accepted at any price exceeding the maximum price specified by the Issuer for the purchase of Notes. The Trustee shall accept bids with the lowest price and, in the event the moneys available for purchase pursuant to such tenders are not sufficient to permit acceptance of all tenders and if there shall be tenders at an equal price above the amounts of moneys available for purchase, then the Trustee shall, determine in its discretion, the Notes tendered which shall be purchased. Prior to such acceptance and purchase the Issuer shall approve the Trustee’s determination above. All Notes purchased by the Trustee pursuant to this Section 3.07 shall be canceled and not reissued.

ARTICLE IV

CREDITS THERETO AND PAYMENTS THEREFROM

           Section 4.01. Creation of Funds and Accounts. There are hereby created and established the following Funds and Accounts to be held by the Trustee and maintained in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture:

          (a)      an Acquisition Fund;

          (c)      a Reserve Fund;

          The Supplemental Indenture for any series of Notes may provide for the creation of additional Funds, separate Accounts within any Fund or separate subaccounts within any Account, into which moneys representing proceeds of such series, moneys set aside for the payment of such series, or moneys otherwise allocable to such series shall be deposited or credited. Notwithstanding the creation of such Accounts or subaccounts, moneys therein shall (except as provided in this Section 4.01 with respect to amounts paid pursuant to a Credit Enhancement Facility and amounts set aside in an Escrow Account as hereinafter defined) be available for any purpose for which other moneys in the Fund of which such Account is a part or the Account of which such subaccount is a part, as the case may be, are authorized to be applied or used.

          Any Supplemental Indenture providing for the issuance of any series of Notes, the payment of which is to be provided pursuant to or secured by a Credit Enhancement Facility, shall also provide for the creation of separate subaccounts within the Interest Account, the Principal Account and the Retirement Account. Any payment received pursuant to such Credit Enhancement Facility shall be deposited into such subaccounts, and moneys deposited therein shall be used only for the payment of Debt Service on Notes of such series, or for such other purposes as may be permitted by such Supplemental Indenture, upon the conditions set forth in such Supplemental Indenture.

          Any Supplemental Indenture providing for the issuance of any series of Notes which (or the Beneficial Ownership Interests in which) must, upon the occurrence of certain circumstances, or may, at the option of the Holder or Beneficial Owner, be tendered for purchase by or on behalf of the Issuer shall also provide for the creation of a separate Fund for such purpose. Any payment received from any source provided for in accordance with the provisions in the Supplemental Indenture (including proceeds of remarketing of such Notes or Beneficial Ownership Interests, amounts provided pursuant to a Credit Enhancement Facility which provides liquidity for the payment of such purchase price, or amounts received from other sources) shall be deposited into such Fund, and moneys deposited therein shall be used only for the payment of the purchase price of Notes of such series (or the Beneficial Ownership Interests therein) on a Tender Date, or for such other purposes as may be permitted by such Supplemental Indenture (including reimbursement of the Credit Facility Provider for the payment of such purchase price).

          In addition, a Supplemental Indenture may provide for the creation of one or more Escrow Accounts (each, an “Escrow Account”) within the Debt Service Fund, upon the defeasance of Notes pursuant to Section 9.01. Moneys deposited in any Escrow Account shall be used only for the payment of the Notes with respect to which the Escrow Account was established.

          No interest shall be paid by the Trustee on moneys on deposit in the Funds and Accounts established pursuant to this Indenture. Moneys on deposit in such Funds and Accounts shall be invested in accordance with Section 4.12 hereof.

          On each Monthly Calculation Date, the Issuer Administrator shall instruct the Trustee to withdraw funds from, in addition to the Collection Fund, the Reserve Fund and the Surplus Fund as specified in Section 4.05 hereof, amounts on deposit in (i) the Remarketing Fee Account as specified in Section 4.03(b) hereof, (ii) the Supplemental Interest Account as specified in Section 4.06(d) and (iii) the Accumulation Fund as specified in Section 4.08 hereof.

           Section 4.02. Acquisition Fund. With respect to each series of Notes, the Trustee shall, upon delivery to the initial purchasers thereof and from the proceeds thereof, credit to the Acquisition Fund the amount, if any, specified in the Supplemental Indenture providing for the issuance of such series of Notes. The Trustee shall also deposit in the Acquisition Fund: (a) any funds to be transferred thereto from the Collection Fund as provided in Section 4.05 hereof, or from the Surplus Fund as provided in Section 4.07 hereof; and (b) any other amounts specified in a Supplemental Indenture to be deposited therein.

          Balances in the Acquisition Fund shall be used only for (a) the acquisition of Eligible Loans including the payment of any related Premium and origination and guarantee fees, if any, and any related Add-On Loan; (b) the redemption or purchase of, or distribution of principal with respect to, Notes as provided in a Supplemental Indenture providing for the issuance of such Notes; (c) the payment of Debt Service on the Notes and Other Obligations when due (upon transfer to the Debt Service Fund as set forth below in this Section 4.02); (d) following the Acquisition Period, the deposit of amounts into the Surplus Fund; (e) the deposit of amounts into the Administration Fund to pay Administration Fees, Servicing Fees and Note Fees; or (f) such other purposes related to the Issuer’s loan programs as may be provided in the Supplemental Indenture authorizing a series of Notes. The Trustee shall make payments from the Acquisition Fund to Lenders for the acquisition of Eligible Loans, including all related Premiums and origination and guarantee fees, if any, in connection therewith, and any related Add-On Loan, upon receipt by the Trustee of an Eligible Loan Acquisition Certificate and all documents and certificates required thereby. Anything in the Indenture to the contrary notwithstanding, the Issuer shall not originate Student Loans with moneys on deposit under the Indenture. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Issuer shall not pay any Premium except as permitted by a Supplemental Indenture.

          If, on any Monthly Calculation Date, the Balance in the Acquisition Fund available for such purpose is less than the amount set forth in an Issuer Certificate as the amount expected to be needed to pay such origination fees, guarantee fees, related premiums and other fees due in the next month, the Trustee shall transfer upon written direction of the Issuer to the Acquisition Fund an amount equal to such deficiency from the following Funds in the following order of priority: the Collection Fund and the Surplus Fund.

          Balances in the Acquisition Fund (other than any portion of such Balance consisting of Financed Student Loans) shall be transferred to the credit of the Debt Service Fund on the Monthly Calculation Date of each calendar month to the extent required to provide for the payment of the Debt Service on the Notes and any Other Obligations, all as provided in Section 4.06 hereof. In connection with the transfer contemplated in the preceding sentence, to the extent that the Trustee does not receive timely transfer instructions from the Issuer, the Trustee shall use its reasonable best efforts to effectuate such transfer without further authorization or direction. If any amounts have been transferred to the Debt Service Fund pursuant to this paragraph, the Trustee shall, to the extent necessary to cure the deficiency in the Acquisition Fund as a result of such transfer or transfers, transfer to the Acquisition Fund amounts from the Collection Fund as provided in Section 4.05 hereof.

          On the first Monthly Calculation Date following the end of the Acquisition Period relating to a series of Notes, the Trustee shall transfer from the Acquisition Fund to the Retirement Account of the Debt Service Fund, for the redemption of, or distribution of principal with respect to, Notes, an amount equal to the Remaining Acquisition Amount.

          The Principal Balance of Financed Student Loans in the Acquisition Fund shall be included in the Balance of the Acquisition Fund until such Financed Student Loans shall have been paid in full or sold or exchanged as herein provided. Interest and principal payments, including Guarantee payments, and Special Allowance Payments received with respect to Financed Student Loans (excluding, except as otherwise provided in a Supplemental Indenture, any federal interest subsidy payments and Special Allowance Payments that accrued prior to the date on which such Student Loans were Financed) and proceeds from the sale or other conveyance of Financed Student Loans shall be credited to the Collection Fund as provided in Section 4.05 hereof.

          Except as otherwise set forth in a Supplemental Indenture and except for assignment of Financed Eligible Loans to a Guarantee Agency for claims payment, the Issuer may direct the Trustee to sell one or more Student Loans Financed with moneys in the Acquisition Fund only upon compliance with the following: (a) in exchange for one or more Eligible Loans (of approximately the same aggregate Principal Balance and accrued borrower interest as such Financed Student Loans) which (i) evidence the additional obligations of borrowers whose Student Loans have been previously Financed hereunder; or (ii) are to be substituted for Financed Student Loans which are not Eligible Loans (except that no sale shall be made pursuant to clause (a) to the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor except to remedy a breach of representation in the Loan Purchase Agreement); or (b) to an affiliate of the Issuer (but not to College Loan Corporation or any other party that has sold such Financed Student Loans to the Issuer) at a price equal to or greater than the Principal Balance of such Student Loan as of the sale date, plus any Unamortized Premium and borrower accrued interest; provided that prior to any such sale and exchange pursuant to (a) the Trustee shall have received an Eligible Loan Acquisition Certificate and all documents and certifications required thereby with respect to all Eligible Loans to be so transferred pursuant to this Indenture in exchange, together with (i) in the case of Eligible Loans referred to in the preceding clause (a)(i), an Issuer Certificate certifying that such sale and exchange will not materially adversely affect the Issuer’s ability to pay Debt Service on the Outstanding Notes and Outstanding Other Obligations, Carry-Over Amounts (including accrued interest thereon) or Series IO Carry-Over Interest with respect to Outstanding Notes, Servicing Fees, Administration Fees or Note Fees; and (ii) a written instrument satisfactory to the Trustee assigning all right, title, interest and privilege of the Issuer in, to and under the student loan purchase agreement pursuant to which each such Eligible Loan to be transferred to this Indenture was acquired by the Issuer (or by the Eligible Lender Trustee on behalf of the Issuer), to the extent such right, title, interest and privilege relate to such Eligible Loan; and provided further that in the case of the sale of any such Financed Student Loans pursuant to (b) above and prior to such sale, the Issuer shall also (A) certify to the Trustee that the proceeds of such sale will be deposited in the Collection Fund and will be used to redeem Notes within the next 60 days pursuant to Section 4.05(m) and (B) provide the Trustee with a bring-down of the “true sale” opinion rendered in connection with the original issuance of the Notes under this Indenture. Within 60 days following the acquisition of any Eligible Loans pursuant to (a) above, the Issuer shall have a Servicer or other independent agent of the Issuer verify that a sampling of such Eligible Loans acquired with the proceeds of such loan sale comply with the Higher Education Act and the Issuer shall receive a bring down of the “true sale” opinion rendered in connection with the original issuance of any Notes under the Indenture. Any money received by the Issuer in connection with a sale and exchange of Financed Student Loans pursuant to this paragraph, including those moneys representing the excess of the aggregate Principal Balance of and accrued borrower interest on such Financed Student Loans released from this Indenture over the aggregate Principal Balance of and accrued borrower interest on the Eligible Loans transferred to this Indenture in exchange therefor, shall be deposited to the credit of the Collection Fund in accordance with the preceding paragraph (except, in the case of sales pursuant to (b) above in which case all such sale proceeds shall be used to redeem Notes). Any such Eligible Loans so transferred to this Indenture in exchange for Student Loans previously Financed from the Acquisition Fund shall, for all purposes of this Indenture, be deemed to have been Financed with moneys in the Acquisition Fund and shall be credited to the Acquisition Fund and included in the Balance thereof.

          In order to facilitate the acquisition of Eligible Loans being originated by College Loan Corporation, the Issuer may instruct the Trustee to establish an Account or Accounts within the Acquisition Fund pursuant to the terms and provisions of an Acquisition Account Agreement which permits the purchase price for one or more Eligible Loans to be withdrawn from such Account by College Loan Corporation, or its agent, upon receipt by the Originating Agent (as defined in the Acquisition Account Agreement), as custodian for the Trustee, of the documentation evidencing the Eligible Loans to be purchased. Moneys in the Acquisition Fund may be transferred upon written direction of the Issuer to an Account established pursuant to an Acquisition Account Agreement upon receipt by the Trustee of an Acquisition Account Deposit Certificate. Once deposited to an Account established pursuant to the terms and provisions of an Acquisition Account Agreement, moneys within such Account may be disbursed by the Trustee for the acquisition of one or more Eligible Loans upon receipt by the Trustee of a Originated Loan Certificate and all documents and certificates required thereby.

          Pending application of moneys in the Acquisition Fund, such moneys shall be invested in Investment Securities, as provided in Section 4.12 hereof, and any earnings on or income from such investments shall be deposited in the Collection Fund as provided in Section 4.05 hereof.

           Section 4.03. Administration Fund. (a) With respect to each series of Notes, the Trustee shall, upon delivery thereof and from the proceeds thereof, credit to the Administration Fund the amount, if any, specified in the Supplemental Indenture providing for the issuance of such series of Notes. The Trustee shall also credit to the Administration Fund all amounts transferred thereto from the Collection Fund as provided in Section 4.05 hereof and the Surplus Fund as provided in Section 4.07 hereof. Amounts in the Administration Fund shall be used for the payment of Costs of Issuance, Servicing Fees, Administration Fees and Note Fees as provided in this Section 4.03

          On each Monthly Calculation Date, the Trustee shall transfer and credit to the Administration Fund moneys available hereunder for transfer thereto in such amounts and at such times as an Authorized Officer of the Issuer shall direct by Issuer Order, for the payment of Servicing Fees, Administration Fees and Note Fees due during the next month. Deposits to the credit of the Administration Fund shall be made from the following sources in the following order of priority: the Collection Fund to the extent and in the manner provided in Section 4.05 hereof; and the Surplus Fund to the extent and in the manner provided in Section 4.07 hereof.

          Amounts in the Administration Fund may, subject to any limitations specified in a Supplemental Indenture, be paid out for Servicing Fees, Administration Fees or Note Fees at any time upon receipt of an Issuer Order and shall be paid in the full amount designated therein. Amounts in the Administration Fund may, as provided in a Supplemental Indenture pursuant to which Notes are issued, be paid out for Costs of Issuance related to such Notes upon receipt of an Issuer Order and shall be paid in the full amount designated therein. Upon receipt by the Trustee of Issuer Orders directing the payment of Note Fees or Costs of Issuance to designated payees in designated amounts for stated services or, in the case of reimbursement of the Issuer for its payment of such Note Fees or Costs of Issuance or the payment of Servicing Fees or Administration Fees (to the extent permitted in this Section), to the Issuer, and in each case certifying that such payment is authorized by this Indenture, be used for and applied only to pay Servicing Fees, Administration Fees, Note Fees and Costs of Issuance or to reimburse another fund, account or other source of the Issuer for the previous payment of Administration Fees, Servicing Fees, Note Fees or Costs of Issuance. Payments from the Administration Fund for such purposes shall be made by check or wire transfer by the Trustee in accordance with such Issuer Orders. Amounts in the Administration Fund in excess of amounts needed to pay Servicing Fees, Administration Fees or Note Fees may, upon Issuer Order, be transferred to the Collection Fund.

          Pending application of moneys in the Administration Fund, the moneys therein shall be invested in Investment Securities, as provided in Section 4.12 hereof, and any earnings on or income from such investments shall be deposited in the Collection Fund as provided in Section 4.05 hereof.

           (b) Remarketing Fee Account. On each Quarterly Distribution Date, an amount up to the Quarterly Funding Amount shall be deposited to the Remarketing Fee Account pursuant to Section 4.05(c) of hereof. Amounts on deposit in the Remarketing Fee Account shall be used to pay the Remarketing Agent Fees due on the Reset Rate Notes on the related Reset Date. If the amount on deposit in the Remarketing Fee Account on any Quarterly Distribution Date, after the payment of any Remarketing Fees due on such Quarterly Distribution Date, exceeds the sum of the Reset Period Target Amounts, the Issuer shall direct the Trustee to transfer such excess to the Collection Fund on such Quarterly Distribution Date. In the event that the fees owed to any Remarketing Agent on a Reset Date exceeds the amount then on deposit for such purposes in the Remarketing Fee Account, such shortfall shall be paid on future Quarterly Distribution Dates. The Issuer shall also be responsible for certain costs and expenses to the extent set forth in the related Remarketing Agreement, which shall be paid on each Quarterly Distribution Date from the Collection Fund pursuant to Section 4.05(c) hereof to the extent funds are available therefor. If on any Quarterly Distribution Date amounts in the Collection Fund and Surplus Fund are insufficient to pay amounts due under Section 4.05(d) or (e) hereof, to the extent sums are on deposit in the Remarketing Fee Account, such sums shall be withdrawn from the Remarketing Fee Account in an amount equal to the deficiency and used to pay such deficiency.

           Section 4.04. Reserve Fund. Immediately upon the delivery of any series of Notes, and from the proceeds thereof or, at the option of the Issuer, from any amounts to be transferred thereto from the Surplus Fund pursuant to Section 4.07 hereof or from any other available moneys of the Issuer not otherwise credited to or payable into any Fund or Account under this Indenture or otherwise subject to the pledge and security interest created by this Indenture, the Trustee shall credit to the Reserve Fund the amount, if any, specified in the Supplemental Indenture providing for the issuance of that series of Notes, such that upon issuance of such Notes, the Balance in the Reserve Fund shall not be less than the Reserve Fund Requirement.

          If on any Monthly Calculation Date the Balance in the Reserve Fund shall be less than the Reserve Fund Requirement, the Trustee shall transfer and credit thereto an amount equal to the deficiency from the following Funds and Accounts in the following order of priority (to the extent not required for credit to the Administration Fund, the Debt Service Fund or the Acquisition Fund): the Collection Fund and the Surplus Fund.

          The Balance in the Reserve Fund shall be used and applied solely for the payment when due of Debt Service on the Notes and the Other Obligations and the other purposes specified in Section 4.06 hereof. Amounts in the Reserve Fund shall be transferred by the Trustee to the credit of the Debt Service Fund at any time and to the extent that the Balance therein and the Balances available for deposit to the credit thereof from the Collection Fund and the Surplus Fund are insufficient to meet the requirements specified in Section 4.06 hereof for deposit to the credit of the Debt Service Fund at such time; (provided, however, that such amounts shall be applied in the following order: (a) to the payment of interest on the Senior Notes and the payment of Other Senior Obligations payable from the Interest Account, (b) to the payment of principal and the purchase price of the Senior Notes and the payment of Other Senior Obligations payable from the Principal Account, (c) to the payment of interest on the Subordinate Notes and the payment of Other Subordinate Obligations payable from the Interest Account and (d) to the payment of principal and the purchase price of the Subordinate Notes and the payment of Other Subordinate Obligations payable from the Principal Account.

          On the Stated Maturity or any Prepayment Date of any Notes, amounts in the Reserve Fund shall, upon Issuer Order, be applied to the payment at Maturity or prepayment of all Outstanding Notes of a series, to the extent that such application will not reduce the Balance of the Reserve Fund below the Reserve Fund Requirement (calculated as though the Notes to be retired on such Stated Maturity or Prepayment Date were not Outstanding as of the date of such calculation), and, after giving effect to such payment or prepayment, the conditions of Section 3.02 will be met. In addition, at any time when the aggregate of the Balances in the Debt Service Fund, the Reserve Fund and the Surplus Fund (exclusive of Financed Student Loans) equals an amount sufficient to discharge and satisfy the obligations of the Issuer with respect to all of the Outstanding Notes and Other Obligations, all in the manner described in Section 9.01 hereof, said Balances shall, upon Issuer Order, be so applied.

          Notwithstanding the foregoing, if on any Monthly Calculation Date the Balance in the Reserve Fund exceeds the Reserve Fund Requirement, such excess shall, upon Issuer Order, be transferred to the Collection Fund.

          Pending application of moneys in the Reserve Fund, the moneys therein shall be invested in Investment Securities as provided in Section 4.12 hereof, and any earnings on or income from such investments shall be deposited in the Collection Fund as provided in Section 4.05 hereof.

           Section 4.05. Collection Fund. The Trustee shall credit to the Collection Fund: (a) all amounts received as interest, including federal interest subsidy payments, late fees and principal payments with respect to Financed Student Loans, including all Guarantee payments, and all Special Allowance Payments with respect to Financed Student Loans (excluding, unless otherwise provided in a Supplemental Indenture, any federal interest subsidy payments and Special Allowance Payments that accrued prior to the date on which such Student Loans were Financed as directed by the Issuer in writing or as set forth in a report of a Servicer provided to the Trustee); (b) unless otherwise provided in a Supplemental Indenture, proceeds of any sale of any Financed Student Loans as permitted by Section 4.02 hereof; (c) amounts transferred thereto from the Acquisition Fund as provided in Section 4.02 hereof, from the Administration Fund as provided in Section 4.03 hereof, and from the Reserve Fund as provided in Section 4.04 hereof, from any Supplemental Interest Account as provided in Section 4.06(d) hereof and from the Accumulation Fund as provided in Section 4.08 hereof; (d) all amounts received as earnings on or income from Investment Securities in the Trust Funds; and (e) all Counterparty Swap Payments.

          The Issuer shall cause all amounts required to be credited to the Collection Fund, upon receipt by the Issuer or a Servicer, or any agent thereof, as the case may be, to be forthwith transmitted to the Trustee for such credit.

          On each Monthly Calculation Date, or on any date directed by the Issuer Administrator, the Trustee shall transfer the moneys received during the preceding month in the Collection Fund, as follows and in the order set forth below (upon receipt of an Issuer Order not inconsistent herewith):

          (v)      to the credit of the Interest Account to the extent and in the manner provided in Section 4.06(a) hereof to provide for the payment of interest on Subordinate Notes or Other Subordinate Obligations (except, with respect to Subordinate Swap Agreements, only amounts due in the ordinary course and not any termination, indemnity or other similar or extraordinary payment without satisfaction of a Rating Agency Condition) for which interest is paid at intervals of more than every 60 days;

The Debt Service Fund shall be used only for the payment of principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes, the purchase price of the Notes to be purchased in accordance with Section 3.07 hereof, Other Obligations, Carry-Over Amounts (including any accrued interest thereon) and Series IO Carry-Over Interest.

          (a)       Interest Account. With respect to each series of Notes, the Trustee shall, upon delivery to the original purchasers thereof and from the proceeds thereof, credit to the Interest Account the amount, if any, specified in the Supplemental Indenture providing for the issuance of such series of Notes. The Trustee shall also deposit in the Interest Account (i) that portion of the proceeds from the sale of the Issuer’s refunding bonds, notes or other evidences of indebtedness, if any, to be used to pay interest on the Notes; (ii) all payments under any Credit Enhancement Facilities by Credit Facility Providers to be used to pay interest on Notes; and (iii) all amounts required to be transferred thereto from the Funds and Accounts specified in this Section 4.06(a).

           With respect to each series of Notes on which interest is paid at intervals of less than every 60 days, the Trustee shall deposit to the credit of the Interest Account on each Monthly Calculation Date an amount equal to the interest that will become payable on such Notes during the following calendar month. With respect to each series of Notes on which interest is paid at intervals of more than every 60 days, pursuant to Section 4.05(d), (f) or (i), as the case may be, the Trustee shall make equal monthly deposits to the credit of the Interest Account on each Monthly Calculation Date preceding each Interest Payment Date, to aggregate the full amount of such interest. With respect to each series of Notes on which interest is paid at intervals of more than every 60 days, pursuant to Section 4.05(u) or (v), as the case may be, the Trustee shall deposit to the credit of the Interest Account on each Monthly Calculation Date preceding each Interest Payment Date, after giving effect to the preceding sentence, the full amount of interest that will be due on the next Interest Payment Date for each such series of Notes. In no event, however, shall the Trustee deposit on any Monthly Calculation Date to the credit of the Interest Account for any series of Notes more than the amount of interest that will be due on the next Interest Payment Date for such series of Notes. With respect to Variable Rate Notes for which any such amount cannot be determined on the Monthly Calculation Date, the Trustee will make such deposit based upon assumptions set forth in the Supplemental Indenture authorizing such Notes.

           With respect to each Swap Agreement under which Issuer Swap Payments are paid no less frequently than every 60 days, the Trustee shall deposit to the credit of the Interest Account on each Monthly Calculation Date an amount equal to the Issuer Swap Payments that will become payable under such Swap Agreement during the following calendar month. With respect to each Swap Agreement under which Issuer Swap Payments are paid less frequently than every 60 days, pursuant to Section 4.05(d), (f) or (i), as the case may be, the Trustee shall make equal monthly deposits to the credit of the Interest Account on each Monthly Calculation Date preceding each date on which such Issuer Swap Payments are due, to aggregate the full amount of such Issuer Swap Payments. With respect to each Swap Agreement under which Issuer Swap Payments are paid less frequently than every 60 days, pursuant to Section 4.05(u) or (v), as the case may be, the Trustee shall deposit to the credit of the Interest Account on each Monthly Calculation Date preceding each date on which such Issuer Swap Payments are due, after giving effect to the preceding sentence, the full amount of Issuer Swap Payments that will be due on such date under each such Swap Agreement. In no event, however, shall the Trustee deposit on any Monthly Calculation Date to the credit of the Interest Account for any Swap Agreement more than the amount of Issuer Swap Payments that will be due under such Swap Agreement on the next date that Issuer Swap Payments are required to be made. With respect to any Swap Agreement for which any such amount cannot be determined on the Monthly Calculation Date, the Trustee will make such deposit based upon assumptions set forth in the Supplemental Indenture authorizing such Swap Agreement.

           With respect to each Credit Enhancement Facility under which fees or premiums are due no less frequently than every 60 days, the Trustee shall deposit to the credit of the Interest Account on each Monthly Calculation Date an amount equal to the fees or premiums that will become payable under such Credit Enhancement Facility during the following calendar month. With respect to each Credit Enhancement Facility under which fees or premiums are paid less frequently than every 60 days, the Trustee shall make equal monthly deposits to the credit of the Interest Account on each Monthly Calculation Date preceding each Interest Payment Date, to aggregate the full amount of such fees or premiums.

           In making the deposits required to be deposited and credited to the Interest Account, all other deposits and credits otherwise made or required to be made to the Interest Account shall, to the extent available for such purpose, be taken into consideration and allowed for. Each deposit required by this Section 4.06(a) to pay the foregoing amounts shall be made by transfer from the following Funds and Accounts, in the following order of priority: the Collection Fund, the Surplus Fund, the Reserve Fund and, as to Senior Notes and Other Senior Obligations only, the Acquisition Fund (other than that portion of the Balance thereof consisting of Financed Student Loans) and the Remarketing Fee Account.

           On each Monthly Calculation Date, if any Carry-Over Amount (including any accrued interest thereon) will be due and payable with respect to a series of Notes during the next month, as provided in the related Supplemental Indenture, the Trustee shall transfer to the Interest Account (to the extent amounts are available therefor in the Collection Fund or the Surplus Fund after taking into account all prior applications of moneys in such Funds on such Monthly Calculation Date in accordance with Sections 4.05 and 4.07 hereof) an amount equal to such Carry-Over Amount (including any accrued interest thereon) so due and payable.

           On each Monthly Calculation Date, if any Series IO Carry-Over Interest (including any accrued interest thereon) will be due and payable with respect to a series of Notes during the next month, as provided in the related Supplemental Indenture, the Trustee shall transfer to the Interest Account (to the extent amounts are available therefor in the Collection Fund or the Surplus Fund after taking into account all prior applications of moneys in such Funds on such Monthly Calculation Date in accordance with Sections 4.05 and 4.07 hereof) an amount equal to such Series IO Carry-Over Interest (including any accrued interest thereon) so due and payable.

          The moneys in the Interest Account required for the payment of interest on the Notes of any series (including, without limitation, the payment of that portion of the purchase price of Notes purchased pursuant to Section 4.06(b) or 4.06(c) hereof attributable to accrued interest thereon), any Issuer Swap Payments or fees payable to a Credit Facility Provider under a Credit Enhancement Facility or any Carry-Over Amount (including any accrued interest thereon) or Series IO Carry-Over Interest shall be applied by the Trustee to the payment of such interest or amounts when due without further authorization or direction, except that the Issuer shall provide written direction as to any Issuer Swap Payments or fees payable to a Credit Facility Provider under a Credit Enhancement Facility.

          Pending application of moneys in the Interest Account, such moneys shall be invested in Investment Securities as provided in Section 4.12 hereof, and any earnings on or income from such investments shall be deposited in the Collection Fund as provided in Section 4.05 hereof.

          (b)       Principal Account. With respect to each series of Notes, the Trustee shall, upon delivery to the original purchasers thereof and from the proceeds thereof, credit to the Principal Account the amount, if any, representing premium on such Notes paid as part of the purchase price thereof. The Trustee shall also deposit to the credit of Principal Account: (i) that portion of the proceeds from the sale of the Issuer’s bonds, notes or other evidences of indebtedness, if any, to be used to pay principal of the Notes on a Principal Payment Date; (ii) all payments under any Credit Enhancement Facility to be used to pay principal of Notes; and (iii) all amounts required to be transferred thereto from the Funds and Accounts specified in this Section 4.06(b).

          Each deposit required by this Section 4.06(b) to pay the foregoing amounts shall be made by transfer from the following Funds, in the following order of priority (after transfers therefrom to the Interest Account required on the date of any such transfer): the Collection Fund, the Surplus Fund, the Reserve Fund and, as to Senior Notes and Other Senior Obligations only, the Acquisition Fund (other than that portion of the Balance thereof consisting of Financed Student Loans) and the Remarketing Fee Account.

          The moneys in the Principal Account required for the payment of the principal of Notes at the Stated Maturity thereof or on a Sinking Fund Payment Date therefor (or for the reimbursement to any Credit Facility Provider for the payment of such principal) shall be applied by the Trustee to such payment when due without further authorization or direction.

          Subject to Section 3.02 hereof, Balances in the Principal Account may also be applied to the purchase of Notes at a purchase price (including any brokerage or other charges) not to exceed the Principal Amount thereof plus accrued interest, in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.07 hereof, or to the redemption of or distribution of principal with respect to Notes at a Prepayment Price not to exceed the Principal Amount thereof plus accrued interest, upon transfer to the Retirement Account, as determined by the Issuer at such time, provided the Trustee shall have first certified that no deficiency exists at such time in the Debt Service Fund. Any such purchase, redemption, or distribution of principal shall be limited to those Notes whose Stated Maturity or Sinking Fund Payment Date is the next succeeding Principal Payment Date. If any moneys credited to the Principal Account for the retirement of the Term Notes are applied to the purchase or redemption of, or distribution of principal with respect to, such Notes as provided in this Section 4.06(b), the Principal Amount of such Notes to be prepaid on the next respective Sinking Fund Payment Date shall be reduced by the Principal Amount of the Notes so purchased, redeemed or distributed; provided, however, that no Term Notes shall be so purchased during the interval between the date on which notice of prepayment of said Notes on a Sinking Fund Payment Date is given and the date of prepayment set forth in such notice, unless the Notes so purchased are Notes called for prepayment in such notice or are purchased from moneys other than those credited to the Principal Account with respect to sinking fund installments.

          All Notes retired by prepayment, purchase or payment at Stated Maturity pursuant to this Section 4.06(b) shall be canceled and shall not be reissued. The accrued interest to be paid on the prepayment, purchase or payment at Stated Maturity of such Notes shall be paid from the Interest Account.

          Pending application of moneys in the Principal Account, such moneys shall be invested in Investment Securities as provided in Section 4.12 hereof, and any earnings on or income from such investments shall be deposited in the Collection Fund as provided in Section 4.06 hereof.

          (c)       Retirement Account. The Trustee shall deposit to the credit of the Retirement Account (i) any amounts transferred thereto from the Acquisition Fund, the Collection Fund, the Reserve Fund, the Surplus Fund or the Principal Account to provide for the redemption or purchase of, or the distribution of principal with respect to, Notes; (ii) that portion of the proceeds from the sale of the Issuer’s bonds, notes or other evidences of indebtedness, if any, to be used to pay the principal or Prepayment Price of Notes on a date other than the Stated Maturity thereof or a Sinking Fund Payment Date therefor; (iii) that portion of the proceeds of the sale or securitization of an Eligible Loan, if any, to be used to pay the principal or Prepayment Price of Notes on a date other than the Stated Maturity thereof or a Sinking Fund Payment Date thereof; and (iv) all payments made by a Credit Facility Provider under a Credit Enhancement Facility to be used to pay the principal or Prepayment Price of Notes payable from the Retirement Account.

          Subject to Section 3.02 hereof, all redemptions of and distributions of principal with respect to Notes (other than at Stated Maturity or on a Sinking Fund Payment Date), shall be made with moneys deposited to the credit of the Retirement Account. Moneys in the Retirement Account shall also be used for the reimbursement to any Credit Facility Provider for the payment of such amounts pursuant to a Credit Enhancement Facility.

          Subject to Section 3.02 hereof, Balances in the Retirement Account may also be applied to the purchase of Notes at a purchase price (including any brokerage or other charges) not to exceed the Principal Amount thereof plus accrued interest plus any then applicable prepayment premium, in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.07 hereof, as determined by the Issuer at such time; provided the Trustee shall have first certified that no deficiency exists at such time in the Debt Service Fund.

          In the event that Notes are to be prepaid from the Retirement Account on a date other than a regularly scheduled Interest Payment Date or are to be purchased from Balances in the Retirement Account pursuant to the preceding paragraph, accrued interest on such Notes shall be paid from the Interest Account.

          The moneys in the Retirement Account required for the payment of the Prepayment Price of Notes to be redeemed, or required distributions or principal with respect to Notes (or for the reimbursement to any Credit Facility Provider for the payment of such amounts) shall be applied by the Trustee to such payment when due without further authorization or direction.

          Pending application of moneys in the Retirement Account, such moneys shall be invested in Investment Securities as provided in Section 4.12 hereof, and any earnings on or income from such investment shall be deposited in the Collection Fund as provided in Section 4.06 hereof.

          (d)       Supplemental Interest Account. The Trustee shall deposit to the credit of the Supplemental Interest Account amounts transferred from the Collection Fund pursuant to Section 4.05(o) hereof representing a Supplemental Interest Deposit Amount. All amounts on deposit in the Supplemental Interest Account and any subaccount thereof shall be transferred to the Collection Fund on each Quarterly Distribution Date.

           Section 4.07. Surplus Fund. On each Monthly Calculation Date, the Trustee shall transfer from the Collection Fund to the Surplus Fund any amounts permitted to be transferred to the Surplus Fund pursuant to Section 4.05 hereof. The Trustee shall also credit to the Surplus Fund any amounts transferred from the Acquisition Fund pursuant to Section 4.02.

          At any time there is a deficiency in any of the other Funds or Accounts, Balances in the Surplus Fund shall be transferred to such Funds or Accounts to remedy such deficiency in the same order of priority as set forth in Section 4.06 hereof for the application of moneys in the Collection Fund.

          Upon receipt by the Trustee of an Issuer Order directing such transfer, Balances in the Surplus Fund may also be transferred to the Acquisition Fund for the acquisition of Eligible Loans and as further authorized or limited in a Supplemental Indenture.

          Subject to Section 3.02 hereof, Balances in the Surplus Fund may also be applied to any one or more of the following purposes at any time as determined by the Issuer at such time, provided the Trustee shall have first certified that no deficiencies exist at such time in the Administration Fund, the Debt Service Fund or the Reserve Fund:

          (a)       transfer to the Retirement Account for the redemption or purchase of, or the distribution of principal with respect to, Notes;

          (b)       the purchase of Notes in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.07 hereof; or

          (c)       transfer to the Acquisition Fund for the acquisition of Eligible Loans pursuant to Section 4.02 hereof.

          Any amounts in the Surplus Fund shall, upon Issuer Order, be released to the Issuer free and clear of the lien of this Indenture or may be released free and clear of the lien of this Indenture to make indemnity payments required pursuant to the terms of a Servicing Agreement if, after taking into account any such release and excluding, for these purposes only, from the calculation of Aggregate Value, any Financed Student Loans which are not Eligible Loans, the Asset Release Requirement will be met.

          Pending application of moneys in the Surplus Fund, such moneys shall be invested in Investment Securities as provided in Section 4.12 hereof, and any earnings on or income from such investments shall be deposited in the Collection Fund as provided in Section 4.05 hereof.

           Section 4.08. Accumulation Fund. (a) If a series of Reset Rate Notes is structured to receive a payment of principal only at the end of the related Reset Period, amounts transferred pursuant to Section 4.05 hereof to pay principal on the applicable series of Reset Rate Notes shall be deposited to the applicable Accumulation Account within the Accumulation Fund.

          (b)       If a series of Reset Rate Notes is denominated in U.S. Dollars and is structured during the then current Reset Period not to receive a payment of principal until the end of the related Reset Period, the Issuer Administrator shall instruct the Trustee in writing no later than one Business Day preceding each Quarterly Distribution Date that is also a Reset Date, to withdraw from the applicable Accumulation Account on such Quarterly Distribution Date (after any additional allocations of principal are made to the applicable Accumulation Account on such Quarterly Distribution Date) the amount (less any investment earnings) on deposit in the such Accumulation Account and distribute (by 1:00 p.m. (New York time) on the related Quarterly Distribution Date) such amounts to the Noteholders of the related series of Reset Rate Notes as of the immediately current Regular Record Date, pro rata, as a payment of principal. If a series of Reset Rate Notes are in a Foreign Exchange Mode and are structured during the then current Reset Period not to receive a payment of principal until the end of the related Reset Period and a currency Swap Agreement is in effect for such series of Reset Rate Notes, the Issuer Administrator shall instruct the Trustee in writing no later than five Business Day preceding each Quarterly Distribution Date that is also a Reset Date for such series of the Reset Rate Notes, to withdraw from the applicable Accumulation Account on such Quarterly Distribution Date (after any additional allocations of principal are made to that account on such Quarterly Distribution Date) the amount (less any investment earnings) on deposit in the such Accumulation Account and deliver such amounts to the related Swap Counterparty or Counterparties in exchange for the amount of the applicable non U.S. Dollar currency, determined using the exchange rate set forth in the related Swap Agreement, for payment to the Noteholders of such series of Reset Rate Notes as of the immediately preceding Regular Record Date, pro rata, as a payment of principal. Amounts (less any investment earnings) on deposit in the applicable Accumulation Account may be used only to pay principal on the related series of Reset Rate Notes (or to the related Swap Counterparty or Counterparties) and for no other purpose. If no currency Swap Agreement is in effect for the Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes, such payment shall be made as set forth in Section 4.06 hereof.

          (c)       In the event that on any Quarterly Distribution Date the amount (less any investment earnings) on deposit for a series of Reset Rate Notes in the applicable Accumulation Account, including amounts deposited on that Quarterly Distribution Date, would equal the Outstanding Principal Amount of the related series of Reset Rate Notes, then no additional amounts will be deposited into such Accumulation Account and all amounts therein, less any investment earnings, will be distributed on the next related Reset Date, pursuant to subsection (b) above, and the Outstanding Amount of such series will be reduced to zero.

          Pending application of moneys in the Accumulation Fund, such moneys shall be invested in Investment Securities as provided in Section 4.12 hereof, and any earnings on or income from such investments shall be deposited in the Collection Fund as provided in Section 4.05 hereof.

           Section 4.09. Currency Fund. With respect to a series of Reset Rate Notes during each Reset Period and on each Reset Date when a series of Reset Rate Notes is reset to be denominated in a currency other than U.S. Dollars during the next Reset Period, the Issuer shall establish and maintain a Currency Account for such series. Any payments in the related currency received from any currency Swap Counterparty will be deposited into the related Currency Account for the benefit of the Noteholders of the applicable series of Reset Rate Notes.

          Pending application of moneys in the Currency Fund, such moneys shall be invested in Investment Securities as provided in Section 4.12 hereof, and any earnings on or income from such investments shall be deposited in the Collection Fund as provided in Section 4.05 hereof.

           Section 4.10. Termination. When no Notes remain Outstanding and no Other Obligations are Outstanding, the Trustee shall transfer to the Issuer, or to the order of the Issuer, the Balances in all Funds and Accounts if, and to the extent that, such Balances are in excess of amounts needed to pay principal of, premium, if any, and interest on, and any Carry-Over Amounts (and accrued interest thereon) and Series IO Carry-Over Interest due and payable with respect to the Notes, to satisfy any Other Obligations, and to pay the fees, compensation and expenses of the Trustee and any Authenticating Agent, Note Registrar, Remarketing Agents, Tender Agents, Auction Agents, Market Agents, Broker-Dealers, and Paying Agents. To the extent that such Balances are needed to pay such amounts or fees, the Trustee shall retain such Balances hereunder and pay such amounts or fees to the Persons to whom such amounts are due and payable as provided hereunder. In the event that any portion or all of the Balances in the Funds and Accounts payable to the Issuer pursuant to this Section 4.10 consist of Investment Securities which are payable solely to the Trustee and cannot be effectively transferred to the Issuer, the Trustee shall continue to hold such Investment Securities under this Indenture on behalf of the Issuer until such time as such securities can be transferred to the Issuer or amounts payable thereunder received, whether by acceleration at the option of the holder thereof, at maturity or otherwise, all at the direction of an Authorized Officer of the Issuer.

           Section 4.11. Pledge. The Notes, including the principal thereof, premium, if any, and interest thereon and any Carry-Over Amounts (and accrued interest thereon) and Series IO Carry-Over Interest with respect thereto, and Other Obligations shall be limited obligations of the Issuer specifically secured as provided in the Granting Clauses hereof. Financed Student Loans purchased with the proceeds of the Issuer’s bonds, notes or other obligations as described in Section 4.02 hereof, or resold to a Lender pursuant to its repurchase obligation, or sold or exchanged for Eligible Loans in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.02 hereof, shall, contemporaneously with receipt by the Trustee of the purchase price thereof in freely transferable funds, including any Eligible Loans to be received in exchange therefor, no longer be pledged to nor serve as security for the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on and any Carry-Over Amounts (and accrued interest thereon) and Series IO Carry-Over Interest with respect to the Notes or any Other Obligations. Moneys paid out to the Issuer as provided in Section 4.03 hereof for Costs of Issuance, Servicing Fees, Administration Fees, and reimbursement for the prior payment of Note Fees, moneys released to the Issuer pursuant to Section 4.07 hereof, and other moneys applied as herein provided shall, upon such payment, release, or application, no longer be pledged to nor serve as security for the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on and any Carry-Over Amounts (and accrued interest thereon) and Series IO Carry-Over Interest with respect to the Notes or any Other Obligations.

          The Issuer pledges and agrees with the Beneficiaries that the Issuer will not limit or alter its powers to fulfill the terms of any agreements made in this Indenture or in any Notes or in any way impair the rights and remedies of the Beneficiaries until the Notes, together with interest thereon, including interest on any unpaid installments of interest, and all costs and expenses in connection with any action or proceeding by or on behalf of the Holders and all amounts owing to Other Beneficiaries, are fully met and discharged.

          The Notes, including the principal thereof, premium, if any, and interest thereon and any Carry-Over Amounts (and accrued interest thereon) and Series IO Carry-Over Interest with respect thereto, and any Other Obligations shall be secured hereunder by the foregoing pledge of the Financed Student Loans, revenues, securities and other moneys hereby made, and by a lien thereon, subject to the priorities expressly provided herein. The pledge in the Granting Clauses hereof shall constitute a prior and paramount lien and charge on such Financed Student Loans, revenues, contract rights, securities and other moneys from time to time held hereunder (subject only to the valid exercise of the constitutional powers of the United States of America, valid bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and other laws affecting creditors’ rights, and to the provisions of this Indenture permitting the application of such Financed Student Loans, revenues, securities and other moneys for the purposes and on the terms and conditions hereof), over and ahead of any claims (whether in tort, contract or otherwise irrespective of whether the parties possessing such claims have notice of the foregoing pledges or charges), encumbrances or obligations of any nature hereafter arising or incurred, and over and ahead of all other indebtedness payable from or secured by such revenues which may hereafter be created or incurred. The pledge of such Financed Student Loans, revenues, securities and other moneys made herein and hereby shall be valid and binding from the time of the delivery of and payment for the first series of Notes issued hereunder, and such Financed Student Loans, revenues, securities and other moneys shall thereupon be immediately subject to the lien, pledge and charge hereof upon receipt thereof by the Issuer or Trustee, without any physical delivery or segregation thereof or further act.

          No Beneficiary shall be required to see that the moneys derived from any Note are applied to the purpose or purposes for which the Note is issued. The validity of the Notes shall neither be dependent upon nor affected by the use and application of the proceeds of such Notes.

          The pledge of the Financed Student Loans, revenues, securities and other moneys made hereby includes the pledge of any contract or any evidence of indebtedness or other rights of the Issuer to receive any of the same, whether now existing or hereafter coming into existence, and whether now or hereafter acquired, and the proceeds thereof.

           Section 4.12. Investments. Moneys held by the Trustee for the credit of any Fund or Account shall be invested by the Trustee, in accordance with the Sections hereof relating to such Funds and Accounts, as directed in writing by the Issuer, to the fullest extent practicable and reasonable, in Investment Securities which shall mature or be redeemable at the option of the holder (at a price not less than the principal amount thereof payable at its stated maturity) without penalty prior to the respective times when the moneys held for the credit of such Fund or Account will be required for the purposes intended, including for the purpose of paying debt service on the Notes. All Funds and Accounts in which money in the Trust Estate is held shall be in (i) trust accounts or (ii) accounts at a bank having combined capital and surplus of at least $50 million and rated at least “Aa3” by Moody’s. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Investment Securities must mature, or be redeemable at the option of the holder, prior to the next Monthly Calculation Date in an amount equal to the lesser of (i) three months’ accrued interest on all Outstanding Notes and the then Outstanding Principal Amount of all Notes having a Stated Maturity occurring during the three month period following such Monthly Calculation Date or (ii) all Investment Securities then held in the Trust Estate

          Subject to the right of the Issuer to direct in writing the investment of funds hereunder, moneys in any Fund or Account or any combination of Funds and Accounts shall be continuously invested and reinvested or deposited and redeposited by the Trustee. If the Issuer shall fail to direct the investment of any amounts hereunder, then the Trustee shall invest such moneys in Investment Securities described in clause (f) of the definition of Investment Securities. The Investment Securities purchased shall be held by the Trustee and shall be deemed at all times to be part of such Fund or Account or combination thereof. The Trustee shall sell or present for redemption, any Investment Securities purchased by it as an investment whenever it shall be necessary to provide moneys to meet any payment from such Fund or Account. The Trustee may purchase from or sell to itself or an affiliate, as principal or agent, any Investment Securities. The Trustee shall advise the Issuer of all investments held for the credit of each Fund or Account in its custody under the provisions of this Indenture as provided in Section 7.14 hereof.

          Any investment of funds in Investment Securities shall be held by a financial institution in accordance with the following requirements:

           (a)      all Investment Securities shall be held in an account with such financial institution in the name of the Trustee;

           (b)      all Investment Securities held in such account shall be delivered to the Trustee in the following manner:

           (ii)      with respect to a “certificated security” (as defined in Section 8-102(a)(4) of the UCC), transferred:

           (A)      by physical delivery of such certificated security to the Trustee, provided that if the certificated security is in registered form, it shall be endorsed to, or registered in the name of, the Trustee or endorsed in blank;

           (B)      by physical delivery of such certificated security in registered form to a “securities intermediary” (as defined in Section 8-102(a)(14) of the UCC) acting on behalf of the Trustee if the certificated security has been specially endorsed to the Trustee by an effective endorsement;

           (iii)      with respect to any security issued by the U.S. Treasury, the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation or by the Federal National Mortgage Association that is a book-entry security held through the Federal Reserve System pursuant to Federal book entry regulations, the following procedures, all in accordance with applicable law, including applicable federal regulations and Articles 8 and 9 of the UCC: book-entry registration of such property to an appropriate book-entry account maintained with a Federal Reserve Bank by a securities intermediary which is also a “depositary” pursuant to applicable federal regulations and issuance by such securities intermediary of a deposit advice or other written confirmation of such book-entry registration to the Trustee of the purchase by the securities intermediary on behalf of the Trustee of such book-entry security; the making by such securities intermediary of entries in its books and records identifying such book-entry security held through the Federal Reserve System pursuant to Federal book-entry regulations as belonging to the Trustee and indicating that such securities intermediary holds such book-entry security solely as agent for the Trustee; or such additional or alternative procedures as may hereafter become appropriate to effect complete transfer of ownership of any such Investment Securities to the Trustee free of any adverse claims, consistent with changes in applicable law or regulations or the interpretation thereof;

           (iv)      with respect to any “uncertificated security” (as defined in Section 8-102(a)(18) of the UCC) that is not governed by clause (iii) above, transferred:

           (A)      (1)      by registration to the Trustee as the registered owner thereof, on the books and records of the issuer thereof; or

           (2)      by registration to another Person (not a securities intermediary) that either becomes the registered owner of the uncertificated security on behalf of the Trustee or, having become the registered owner, acknowledges that it holds for the Trustee; or

           (B)      by the issuer thereof having agreed that it will comply with instructions originated by the Trustee without further consent of the registered owner thereof;

           (v)      with respect to any “security entitlement” (as defined in Section 8-102(a)(17) of the UCC):

           (A)      if a securities intermediary

           (1)      indicates by book entry that a “financial asset” (as defined in Section 8-102(a)(9) of the UCC) has been credited to the Trustee’s “securities account” (as defined in Section 8-501(a) of the UCC),

           (3)      becomes obligated under other law, regulation or rule to credit a financial asset to the Trustee’s securities account, or

           (4)      has agreed that it will comply with “entitlement orders” (as defined in Section 8-102(a)(8) of the UCC) originated by the Trustee, without further consent by the “entitlement holder” (as defined in Section 8-102(a)(7) of the UCC), and

           (B)      such financial asset either is such Investment Security or a security entitlement evidencing a claim thereto; and

           (vi)      in each case of delivery contemplated pursuant to clauses (i) through (v) above, the Trustee shall make appropriate notations on its records, and shall cause the same to be made on the records of its nominees, indicating that such Investment Security is held in trust pursuant to and as provided in this Indenture.

          Any cash held by the Trustee shall be considered a “financial asset” for purposes of this paragraph. Subject to the other provisions hereof, the Trustee shall have sole control over each such investment and the income thereon, and any certificate or other instrument evidencing any such investment, if any, shall be delivered directly to the Trustee or its agent, together with each document of transfer, if any, necessary to transfer title to such investment to the Trustee in a manner which complies with this paragraph.

          The Trustee agrees that it has no security interest or other adverse claim to the Funds and Accounts or the Investment Securities therein that are part of the Trust Estate other than pursuant to this Indenture and that it will not enter into any agreement that would give any Person or entity other than the Trustee the right to give entitlement orders with respect to such Investment Securities or the Funds and Accounts.

           Section 4.13. Transfer of Investment Securities. Whenever any transfer is required by this Indenture to be made from any Fund or Account to any other Fund or Account, the Trustee may use Investment Securities, or allocable portions thereof, included in the Balance of the former to the extent necessary to make such transfer, but only to the extent such Investment Securities are permissible investments for the Fund or Account to which they are to be transferred. The amount of any such transfer of Investment Securities shall be the Value thereof determined with respect thereto as of the date of transfer.

           Section 4.14. Transfer of Money Following Revolving Period. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture to the contrary, no transfer of moneys shall be made to the Acquisition Fund following the end of the Revolving Period, nor will moneys in the Surplus Fund be used to acquire Student Loans following the end of the Revolving Period; provided, however, that the Issuer may acquire any Add-On Loan required to be funded under the Higher Education Act within 180 days after the end of the Revolving Period.

           Section 4.15. Release. The Trustee shall, upon Issuer Order and subject to the provisions of this Indenture, take all actions reasonably necessary to effect the release of any Financed Student Loans from the lien of this Indenture to the extent the terms hereof permit the sale, disposition or transfer of such Financed Student Loans.

          Subject to the payment of its fees and expenses pursuant to Sections 7.02 and 7.21, the Trustee may, and when required by the provisions of this Indenture shall, execute instruments to release property from the lien of this Indenture, or convey the Trustee’s interest in the same, in a manner and under circumstances that are not inconsistent with the provisions of this Indenture. No party relying upon an instrument executed by the Trustee as provided in this Article IV shall be bound to ascertain the Trustee’s authority, inquire into the satisfaction of any conditions precedent or see to the application of any moneys.

          The Trustee shall, at such time as there are no Notes Outstanding and all sums due the Trustee pursuant to Sections 7.02 and 7.21 and all amounts payable to the Servicers, the Issuer Administrator, the Remarketing Agents, the Auction Agents, the Broker-Dealers, the Delaware Trustee and the Counterparties have been paid, release any remaining portion of the Trust Estate that secured the Notes from the lien of this Indenture and release to the Issuer or any other Person entitled thereto any funds then on deposit in the Funds and Accounts.

          Subject to the provisions of this Indenture and except for sales of Financed Student Loans pursuant to Section 4.02, the Trustee shall release property from the lien of this Indenture only upon receipt of an Issuer Order, an Opinion of Counsel and Independent Certificates in accordance with TIA Sections 314(c) and 314(d)(1) or an Opinion of Counsel in lieu of such Independent Certificates to the effect that the TIA does not require any such Independent Certificates.

          Each Noteholder, by the acceptance of a Note, acknowledges that from time to time the Trustee shall release the lien of this Indenture on any Financed Student Loan to be sold pursuant to Section 4.02, and each Noteholder, by the acceptance of a Note, consents to any such release.

A copy of such notice shall also be provided to any Tender Agent, any Remarketing Agent, any Auction Agent, any Market Agent and any Broker-Dealer. In the event that the Trustee shall declare the principal of and interest accrued on all Notes then Outstanding due and payable in accordance with this Section 6.02, such principal and interest shall become immediately due and payable on the date of declaration. At any time after such a declaration of acceleration has been made, but before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been obtained by the Trustee, the Acting Beneficiaries Upon Default may, by written notice to the Issuer and the Trustee, rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences if:

          (a)      There has been paid to or deposited with the Trustee by or for the account of the Issuer, or provision satisfactory to the Trustee has been made for the payment of, a sum sufficient to pay:


          (i)      if Senior Obligations are Outstanding:


          (A)      all overdue installments of interest on all Senior Notes;


          (B)      the principal of (and premium, if any, on) any Senior Notes which have become due otherwise than by such declaration of acceleration, together with interest thereon at the rate or rates borne by such Senior Notes;


          (C)      to the extent that payment of such interest is lawful, interest upon overdue installments of interest on the Senior Notes at the rate or rates borne by such Senior Notes;


          (D)      all Other Senior Obligations which have become due other than as a direct result of such declaration of acceleration;


          (E)      all other sums required to be credited to the Collection Fund and the Interest Account under the provisions of this Indenture; and


          (F)      all sums paid or advanced by the Trustee under this Indenture and the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel and any Paying Agents, Remarketing Agents, Tender Agents, Auction Agents, Market Agents and Broker-Dealers; or


          (ii)      if no Senior Obligations are Outstanding but Subordinate Obligations are Outstanding:


          (A)      all overdue installments of interest on all Subordinate Notes;


          (B)      the principal of (and premium, if any, on) any Subordinate Notes which have become due other than by such declaration of acceleration, together with interest thereon at the rate or rates borne by such Subordinate Notes;


          (C)      to the extent that payment of such interest is lawful, interest upon overdue installments of interest on the Subordinate Notes at the rate or rates borne by such Subordinate Notes;


          (D)      all Other Subordinate Obligations which have become due otherwise as a direct result of such declaration of acceleration;


          (E)      all other sums required to be credited to the Collection Fund and the Interest Account under the provisions of this Indenture; and


          (F)      all sums paid or advanced by the Trustee under this Indenture and the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel and any Paying Agents, Remarketing Agents, Tender Agents, Auction Agents and Broker-Dealers; or


          (iii)      if no Senior Obligations and no Subordinate Obligations are Outstanding but Junior Subordinate Notes are Outstanding:


          (A)      all overdue installments of interest on all Junior Subordinate Notes;


          (B)      the principal of (and premium, if any, on) any Junior Subordinate Notes which have become due other than by such declaration of acceleration, together with interest thereon at the rate or rates borne by such Junior Subordinate Notes;


          (C)      to the extent that payment of such interest is lawful, interest upon overdue installments of interest on the Junior Subordinate Notes at the rate or rates borne by such Junior Subordinate Notes;


          (D)      all Other Junior Subordinate Obligations which have become due otherwise as a direct result of such declaration of acceleration;


          (E)      all other sums required to be credited to the Collection Fund and the Interest Account under the provisions of this Indenture; and


          (F)      all sums paid or advanced by the Trustee under this Indenture and the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel and any Paying Agents, Remarketing Agents, Tender Agents, Auction Agents and Broker-Dealers.


          (b)      All Events of Default, other than the non-payment of the principal of Notes or Other Obligations which have become due solely by, or as a direct result of, such declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived as provided in Section 6.13 hereof.


          No such rescission and annulment shall affect any subsequent default or impair any right consequent thereon.

          Section 6.03. Other Remedies; Rights of Beneficiaries. If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee may (a) institute judicial proceedings in its own name and as or on behalf of a trustee of an express trust for the collection of all amounts then payable on the Notes and any Other Obligations or under this Indenture with respect thereto, whether by declaration or otherwise, enforce any judgment obtained, and collect from the Issuer and any other obligor upon such Notes and Other Obligations moneys adjudged due; and (b) pursue any other available remedy by suit at law or in equity to enforce the covenants of the Issuer herein, including, without limitation, any remedy of a secured party under the Delaware Uniform Commercial Code, foreclosure and mandamus, and may pursue such appropriate judicial proceedings as the Trustee shall deem most effective to protect and enforce, or aid in the protection and enforcement of, the covenants and agreements herein.

          If an Event of Default shall have occurred and is continuing, and if it shall have been requested so to do by the Acting Beneficiaries Upon Default and shall have been indemnified to its reasonable satisfaction as provided in Section 7.01 hereof, the Trustee shall be obliged to exercise such one or more of the rights and powers conferred by this Section 6.03 as the Trustee, being advised by its Counsel, shall deem most expedient in the interests of the Beneficiaries; provided, however, that the Trustee shall have the right to decline to comply with any such request if the Trustee shall be advised by Counsel that the action so requested may not lawfully be taken or if the Trustee receives, before exercising such right or power, contrary instructions from the Acting Beneficiaries Upon Default.

          Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Article VI, if an “Event of Default” (as defined therein) occurs under a Swap Agreement or a Credit Enhancement Facility and, as a result, the Other Beneficiary that is a party thereto is entitled to exercise one or more remedies thereunder, such Other Beneficiary may exercise such remedies, including, without limitation, the termination of such agreement, as provided therein, in its own discretion; provided that the exercise of any such remedy shall not adversely affect the legal ability of the Trustee or Acting Beneficiaries Upon Default to exercise any remedy available hereunder.

          No remedy by the terms of this Indenture conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the Beneficiaries is intended to be exclusive of any other remedy, but each and every such remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to any other remedy given to the Trustee or to the Beneficiaries hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy.

          No delay or omission to exercise any right or power accruing upon any Event of Default shall impair any such right or power or shall be construed to be a waiver of any such Event of Default or acquiescence therein; and every such right and power may be exercised from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient by the Trustee or the Acting Beneficiaries Upon Default, as the case may be.

           Section 6.04. Direction of Proceedings by Acting Beneficiaries Upon Default. The Acting Beneficiaries Upon Default shall have the right, at any time, by an instrument or instruments in writing executed and delivered to the Trustee, to direct the method and place of conducting all proceedings to be taken in connection with the enforcement of the terms and conditions of this Indenture; provided that (a) such direction shall not be otherwise than in accordance with the provisions of law and of this Indenture; (b) the Trustee shall not determine that the action so directed would be unjustly prejudicial to the Holders of Notes or Other Beneficiaries not taking part in such direction, other than by effect of the subordination of any of their interests hereunder; (c) the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee which is not inconsistent with such direction and (d) the Trustee shall be indemnified to its reasonable satisfaction as provided in Section 7.01 hereof.

           Section 6.05. Waiver of Stay or Extension Laws. To the extent that such rights may lawfully be waived, neither the Issuer nor anyone claiming through it or under it shall or will set up, claim, or seek to take advantage of any stay or extension laws now or hereafter in force, which may affect the covenants or agreements contained in this Indenture, or in the Notes, and the Issuer, for itself and all who may claim through or under it, hereby waives, to the extent that it lawfully may do so, the benefit of all such laws.

           Section 6.06. Application of Moneys. All moneys received by the Trustee pursuant to any right given or action taken under the provisions of this Article VI shall, after, except as otherwise provided in a Supplemental Indenture, payment of the cost and expenses of the proceedings resulting in the collection of such moneys and of the expenses, liabilities, disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Trustee and any counsel with respect thereto and any other outstanding fees and expenses of the Trustee (provided that any moneys or Investment Securities held pursuant to Section 9.01 hereof with respect to Notes no longer deemed Outstanding hereunder shall not be available for, nor be applied to, the payment of any such costs, expenses, liabilities or advances), be applied as follows (except that moneys received with respect to Credit Enhancement Facilities shall be applied only to the purposes for which such Credit Enhancement Facilities were provided, and shall be so applied prior to the application of other moneys as provided in this Section 6.06 and any moneys contained in an Accumulation Account shall be paid to the Holders of the related Reset Rate Notes):

           Section 6.08. Limitation on Suits by Beneficiaries. Except as may be permitted in a Supplemental Indenture with respect to an Other Beneficiary, no Holder of any Note or Other Beneficiary shall have any right to institute any suit, action or proceeding in equity or at law for the enforcement of this Indenture or for the execution of any trust hereof or for the appointment of a receiver or any other remedy hereunder unless (a) an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing; (b) the Acting Beneficiaries Upon Default shall have made written request to the Trustee; (c) such Beneficiary or Beneficiaries shall have offered to the Trustee indemnity, as provided in Section 7.01 hereof; (d) the Trustee shall have thereafter failed for a period of 60 days after the receipt of the request and indemnification or refused to exercise the powers hereinbefore granted or to institute such action, suit or proceeding in its own name; and (e) no direction inconsistent with such written request shall have been given to the Trustee during such 60-day period by the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate Principal Amount of the Notes then Outstanding; it being understood and intended that no one or more Holders of the Notes or any Other Beneficiary shall have any right in any manner whatsoever to affect, disturb or prejudice the lien of this Indenture by his, her, its or their action or to enforce any right hereunder except in the manner herein provided, and that all proceedings at law or in equity shall be instituted, had and maintained in the manner herein provided and for the benefit of the Holders of all Outstanding Notes and Other Beneficiaries hereunder as their interests may appear hereunder; provided, however, that, notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 6.08, the Acting Beneficiaries Upon Default may institute any such suit, action or proceeding in their own names for the benefit of the Holders of all Outstanding Notes and Other Beneficiaries hereunder.

           Section 6.10. Trustee May File Proofs of Claims. In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to the Issuer or the property of the Issuer, the Trustee (irrespective of whether the principal of the Notes shall then be due and payable as therein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Trustee shall have made any demand on the Issuer for the payment of overdue principal or interest) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise,

          (a)      to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of principal, premium, if any, and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Notes then Outstanding and to file such other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and Counsel and any Paying Agents, Authenticating Agents, Note Registrar, Remarketing Agents, Tender Agents, Auction Agents, Market Agents and Broker-Dealers) and of the Beneficiaries allowed in such judicial proceeding, and


          (b)      to collect and receive any moneys or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same;

          Nothing herein shall affect the right of any Paying Agent, Authenticating Agent, Note Registrar, Remarketing Agent, Tender Agent, Auction Agent, Market Agent or Broker-Dealer to file proofs of claim on their own behalf in any such proceeding.

          Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Noteholder or Other Beneficiary any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Notes or the rights of any Holder thereof or Other Beneficiary, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Noteholder in any such proceeding.

           Section 6.11. Undertaking for Costs. The Issuer and the Trustee agree, and each Holder of any Note by his, her or its acceptance thereof shall be deemed to have agreed, that any court may in its discretion require, in any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it as Trustee, the filing by any party litigant in such suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and that such court may in its discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys fees, against any party litigant in such suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by such party litigant; but the provisions of this Section 6.11 shall not apply to (a) any suit instituted by the Trustee; (b) any suit instituted by any Noteholder, or group of Noteholders, in each case holding in the aggregate more than 10% of the Outstanding Principal Amount of the Notes; or (c) any suit instituted by any Noteholder for the enforcement of the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Note in accordance with Section 6.09 hereof.

           Section 6.12. Termination of Proceedings. In case the Trustee or any Beneficiary shall have proceeded to enforce any right under this Indenture by the appointment of a receiver, or otherwise, and such proceedings shall have been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or shall have been determined adversely to the Trustee or such Beneficiary, then and in every such case the Issuer and the Trustee or such Beneficiary shall, subject to any final determination in such proceedings, be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder with respect to this Indenture, and all rights, remedies and powers of the Trustee and the Beneficiaries shall continue as if no such proceedings had been taken.

           Section 6.13. Waiver of Defaults and Events of Default. The Trustee shall, unless the Trustee has declared the principal of and interest on all Outstanding Notes immediately due and payable in accordance with Section 6.02 hereof and a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been obtained by the Trustee, waive any default or Event of Default hereunder and its consequences but only upon written request of the Acting Beneficiaries Upon Default; provided, however, that there shall not be waived (a) any Event of Default arising from the acceleration of the maturity of the Notes, except upon the rescission and annulment of such declaration as described in Section 6.02 hereof; (b) any Event of Default in the payment when due of any amount owed to any Beneficiary (including payment of principal of or interest on any Note) except with the consent of such Beneficiary or unless, prior to such waiver, the Issuer has paid or deposited (or caused to be paid or deposited) with the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay all amounts owed to such Beneficiary (including, to the extent permitted by law, interest upon overdue installments of interest); (c) any Event of Default arising from the failure of the Issuer to pay unpaid expenses of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any Authenticating Agent, Paying Agents, Note Registrar, Remarketing Agents, Tender Agents, Auction Agents, Market Agents and Broker-Dealers as required by this Indenture, unless, prior to such waiver, the Issuer has paid or deposited (or caused to be paid or deposited) with the Trustee sums required to satisfy such obligations of the Issuer under the provisions of this Indenture; or (d) any default in respect of a covenant or provision hereof which, under Article VIII hereof, cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the Holder of each Note affected thereby. No such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other default or Event of Default, or impair any right consequent thereon.

ARTICLE VII

FIDUCIARIES

           Section 7.01. Acceptance of the Trustee. The Trustee hereby accepts the trusts imposed upon it by this Indenture, and agrees to perform said trusts, but only upon and subject to the following terms and conditions:

          (a)      Except during the continuance of an Event of Default;


          (i)      the Trustee undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Indenture, and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee; and


          (ii)      in the absence of bad faith on its part, the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Indenture; but in the case of any such certificates or opinions which by any provisions hereof are specifically required to be furnished to the Trustee, the Trustee shall be under a duty to examine the same to determine whether or not they conform in form to the requirements of this Indenture; and the Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, entitlement order, approval or other paper or document.


          (b)      In case an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing of which an officer of the Trustee has actual knowledge, the Trustee shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture, and use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise, as a prudent man would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of his own affairs.


          (c)      No provision of this Indenture shall be construed to relieve the Trustee from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act, or its own willful misconduct, except that:


          (i)      this subsection (c) shall not be construed to limit the effect of subsection (a) of this Section;


          (ii)      the Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by an officer or officers of the Trustee, unless it shall be conclusively determined that the Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts;


          (iii)      the Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with the direction of the Issuer with respect to matters which the Issuer is entitled to direct hereunder or the Acting Beneficiaries Upon Default relating to the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred upon the Trustee, under this Indenture; and


          (iv)      no provision of this Indenture shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any liability, financial or otherwise, in the performance of any of its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if it shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it.


          (d)      The Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers hereof and perform any of its duties by or through attorneys, agents, receivers, custodians, nominees or employees and shall not be liable for the acts or omissions of such parties appointed with due care and shall be entitled to advice of Counsel and the advice or any opinion of counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken or admitted by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance with such advice or opinion of counsel, and may in all cases pay reasonable compensation to any attorney, agent, receiver or employee retained or employed by it in connection herewith. The Trustee may act upon the opinion or advice of any Counsel or accountant selected by it in the exercise of reasonable care. The Trustee shall not be responsible for any loss or damage resulting from any action or inaction based on its good faith reliance upon such opinion or advice.


          (e)      The Trustee shall not be responsible for any recital herein or in the Notes (except with respect to the certificate of the Trustee endorsed on the Notes), or for the filing or refiling of this Indenture, or for the validity of the execution by the Issuer of this Indenture, or of any Supplemental Indenture or instrument of further assurance, or for the sufficiency of the security for the Notes issued hereunder or intended to be secured hereby.


          (f)      The Trustee shall not be accountable for the use or application by the Issuer of any of the Notes or the proceeds thereof or for the use or application of any money paid over by the Trustee in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture or for the use and application of money received by any Paying Agent.


          (g)      The Trustee may conclusively rely and shall be fully protected in acting upon any notice, order, requisition, request, consent, certificate, order, opinion (including an opinion of Counsel), affidavit, letter, telegram or other paper or document deemed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed or sent by the proper person or persons. Any action taken by the Trustee pursuant to this Indenture upon the request or authority or consent of any person who at the time of making such request or giving such authority or consent is the Holder of any Note shall be conclusive and binding upon all future Holders of the same Note and Notes issued in exchange therefor or in place thereof.


          (h)      Whenever in the administration of the provisions of this Agreement the Trustee shall deem it necessary or desirable that a matter be proved or established prior to taking or suffering any action to be taken hereunder, such matter (unless other evidence in respect thereof be herein specifically prescribed) may, in the absence of no negligence or bad faith on the part of the Trustee, be deemed to be conclusively proved and established by an Issuer’s Certificate delivered to the Trustee and such certificate, in the absence of no negligence or bad faith on the part of the Trustee, shall be full warrant to the Trustee for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it under the provisions of this Indenture upon the faith thereof.


          (i)      At any and all reasonable times, the Trustee, and its duly authorized agents, attorneys, experts, engineers, accountants and representatives, shall have the right fully to inspect all books, papers and records of the Issuer pertaining to the Financed Student Loans, and to take such memoranda from and in regard thereto as may be desired.


          (j)      The Trustee shall not be required to give any bond or surety in respect of the execution of the said trusts and powers or otherwise in respect of the premises.


          (k)      Notwithstanding anything elsewhere in this Indenture contained, the Trustee, in respect to the authentication of any Notes, the withdrawal of any cash or any action whatsoever within the purview of this Indenture, and any Authenticating Agent, in respect of the authentication of Notes, shall have the right, but shall not be required, to demand any showings, certificates, opinions (including opinions of Counsel), appraisals or other information, or corporate action or evidence thereof, in addition to that by the terms hereof required as a condition of such action by the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent, as the case may be, deemed desirable for the purpose of establishing the right of the Issuer to the authentication of any Notes, the withdrawal of any cash, or the taking of any other action by the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent, as the case may be.


          (l)      Before taking any action hereunder requested by Noteholders or by any Other Beneficiary, the Trustee may require that it be furnished an indemnity bond or other indemnity satisfactory to it for the reimbursement of all expenses to which it may be put and to protect it against all liability, except liability which results from the negligence or willful misconduct of the Trustee, by reason of any action so taken by the Trustee.


          (m)      The Trustee shall periodically file Uniform Commercial Code continuation statements and take such other actions described in Section 4.12 hereof as required to maintain and continue the perfection of any security interests granted by the Issuer and the Eligible Lender Trustee as debtors to the Trustee as secured party hereunder.


          (n)      Anything in this Indenture to the contrary notwithstanding, in no event shall the Trustee be liable for special, indirect or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including but not limited to lost profits).


           Section 7.02. Fees, Charges and Expenses of the Trustee, Paying Agents, Note Registrar, Authenticating Agents, Remarketing Agents, Tender Agents, Auction Agents, Market Agents and Broker-Dealers. The Trustee and each Paying Agent, Note Registrar, Authenticating Agent, Remarketing Agent, Tender Agent, Auction Agent, Market Agent and Broker-Dealer shall be entitled to payment and/or reimbursement from the Issuer for reasonable fees for services rendered hereunder (monthly in the case of the Trustee) and all advances, legal fees and other expenses reasonably and necessarily made or incurred by it in and about the execution of the trusts created by this Indenture and in and about the exercise and performance of the powers and duties of the Trustee and each Paying Agent, Note Registrar, Authenticating Agent, Remarketing Agent, Tender Agent, Auction Agent, Market Agent and Broker-Dealer hereunder and for the reasonable and necessary costs and expenses incurred in defending any liability in the premises of any character whatsoever (unless such liability is adjudicated to have resulted from the negligence or willful misconduct of the Trustee, the Paying Agent, the Note Registrar, the Authenticating Agent, the Remarketing Agent, the Tender Agent, the Auction Agent, the Market Agent or the Broker-Dealer); provided that any moneys or Investment Securities held pursuant to Section 9.01 hereof with respect to Notes no longer deemed Outstanding hereunder, shall not be available for, nor be applied to, the payment of any such fees, advances, costs or expenses. The right of the Trustee to payment under this Section 7.02 shall survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture or the earlier resignation or removal of the Trustee. As security for the performance of the Issuer under this Section or Section 7.21 hereof, after the occurrence of a Default the Trustee shall without further action or authorization have a lien and a right to set-off, prior to the lien of the Noteholders and all other Persons, upon the Trust Estate. When the Trustee incurs expenses after the occurrence of a Default specified in Section 6.01 (o) or (p) with respect to the Issuer, if the surviving entity has failed to honor such obligation the expenses are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any insolvency law or under Title 11 of the United States Code.

           Section 7.03. Notice to Beneficiaries if Default Occurs. The Trustee shall give to all Beneficiaries, in the manner provided in Section 10.04 hereof, notice of all Events of Default, and of all events which, with the passage of time or the giving of notice, or both, would become an Event of Default, known to the Trustee, within 90 days after the occurrence of such Event of Default or other event unless such Event of Default or other event shall have been cured before the giving of such notice; provided that, except in the case of Events of Default in the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any of the Notes, the Trustee shall be protected in withholding such notice if and so long as a trust committee of the Trustee in good faith determines that the withholding of such notice is in the interest of the Beneficiaries.

           Section 7.04. Intervention by Trustee. In any judicial proceeding to which the Issuer is a party and which in the opinion of the Trustee and its Counsel has a substantial bearing on the interest of the Beneficiaries, the Trustee may intervene on behalf of Beneficiaries and shall do so if requested in writing by the Acting Beneficiaries Upon Default. The rights and obligations of the Trustee under this Section 7.04 are subject to the approval of a court of competent jurisdiction in the premises.

           Section 7.05. Successor Trustee, Paying Agents, Authenticating Agents, and Tender Agents. Any corporation, association or agency into which the Trustee and any Paying Agent, any Authenticating Agent or any Tender Agent may be converted or merged, or with which it may be consolidated, or to which it may sell or transfer its trust business and assets as a whole or substantially as a whole, or any corporation or association resulting from any such conversion, sale, merger, consolidation or transfer to which it is a party, ipso facto, shall be and become successor Trustee, Paying Agent, Note Registrar, Authenticating Agent, or Tender Agent hereunder and vested with all of the trusts, powers, discretions, immunities, privileges and all other matters as was its predecessor, without the execution or filing of any instrument or any further act, deed or conveyance on the part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding; provided that no such merger, conversion or consolidation shall relieve the Trustee of its obligation to comply with Section 7.13 hereof.

           Section 7.06. Resignation by Trustee, Paying Agents, Authenticating Agents, and Tender Agents. The Trustee, any Paying Agent, any Authenticating Agent and any Tender Agent may at any time resign from the trusts and be discharged of the duties and obligations hereby created by giving 60 days’ written notice to the Issuer and, in the case of the Trustee, a Paying Agent, an Authenticating Agent or a Tender Agent, by first-class mail to all Noteholders and Other Beneficiaries and such resignation shall take effect upon the appointment of a successor Trustee, Paying Agent, Authenticating Agent or Tender Agent. No such resignation of the Trustee shall become effective until the acceptance of appointment by a successor Trustee under Section 7.09 hereof. Upon the appointment and acceptance of a successor Trustee, the successor Trustee shall or upon appointment and acceptance of a successor Authenticating Agent, Paying Agent or Tender Agent, the Trustee shall, promptly cause written notice of such appointment to be given to all Noteholders and Other Beneficiaries in the manner provided in Section 10.04 hereof, which notice shall include the address of the Principal Office of such successor. If an instrument of acceptance by a successor Trustee, Paying Agent, Authenticating Agent or Tender Agent shall not have been delivered to the resigning Trustee, Paying Agent, Authenticating Agent or Tender Agent within 60 days after the giving of such notice of resignation, the resigning Trustee, Paying Agent, Authenticating Agent or Tender Agent may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor and any attorneys’ fees incurred in connection with any such petition shall be payable by the Issuer.

           Section 7.07. Removal of Trustee. The Issuer may at any time, subject to the provisions of this Article VII, remove the Trustee by Issuer Order. The Issuer shall remove the Trustee if at any time so requested by an instrument or concurrent instruments in writing, filed with the Trustee and the Issuer, and signed by the Holders of a majority in Principal Amount of the Notes then Outstanding or their attorneys-in-fact duly authorized. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Trustee may not be removed during the existence of an Event of Default.

          In case the Trustee shall be dissolved, fail to comply with Section 7.13 hereof or otherwise become incapable of acting hereunder, or in case it shall be taken under the control of any public officer or officers, or of a receiver appointed by a court, any Noteholder may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee.

          No removal of the Trustee, and no appointment of a successor Trustee, pursuant to the provisions of this Article VII shall become effective until the acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee under Section 7.09 hereof.

           Section 7.08. Appointment of Successor Trustee. If the Trustee shall resign, be removed or become incapable of acting, or if a vacancy shall occur in the office of Trustee for any cause, the Issuer shall, by Issuer Order, promptly appoint a successor trustee. If no successor trustee has been appointed and accepted appointment as herein provided after 60 days from the mailing of notice of resignation by the Trustee under Section 7.06 hereof, or from the date the Trustee is removed or otherwise incapable of acting hereunder, any Beneficiary or the Trustee may petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint a successor trustee. No appointment of a successor Trustee shall be effective without the written consent of all Other Beneficiaries, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

          The Issuer shall promptly notify any Paying Agent, Authenticating Agent, Remarketing Agent and Tender Agent as to the appointment of any successor trustee and shall promptly cause written notice of such appointment to be given to all Noteholders and Other Beneficiaries in the manner provided in Section 10.04 hereof, which notice shall include the address of the Principal Office of the successor Trustee.

           Section 7.09. Concerning any Successor Trustee. Every successor Trustee appointed hereunder shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to its predecessor, and to the Issuer, an instrument in writing accepting such appointment hereunder, and thereupon such successor, without any further act, assignment or conveyance, shall become fully vested with all the estates, properties, rights, powers, trusts, duties and obligations of its predecessor as Trustee; but such predecessor shall, nevertheless, on the written request of the Issuer, or of its successor Trustee, execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor Trustee all the estates, properties, rights, powers and trusts of such predecessor hereunder, and every predecessor Trustee shall deliver all securities and moneys and Balances held by it as Trustee hereunder to its successor together with an accounting of the Balances held by it hereunder and shall take such actions as may be necessary to cause any Credit Enhancement Facility to be transferred to the successor Trustee. Should any instrument in writing from the Issuer be required by any successor Trustee for more fully and certainly vesting in such successor the estates, rights, powers and duties hereby vested or intended to be vested in the predecessor trustee, any and all such instruments in writing shall, on request, be executed, acknowledged and delivered by the Issuer.

           Section 7.10. Trustee Protected in Relying Upon Resolutions, Etc. The resolutions, orders, requisitions, opinions, certificates and other instruments conforming to the requirements of this Indenture may be accepted by the Trustee as conclusive evidence of the facts and conclusions stated therein and shall be full warrant, protection and authority to the Trustee for the withdrawal of cash hereunder.

           Section 7.11. Successor Trustee as Custodian of Funds. In the event of a change in the office of Trustee the predecessor Trustee which has resigned or been removed shall cease to be custodian of the Funds and Accounts, and the successor Trustee shall be and become such custodian.

           Section 7.12. Co-Trustee. At any time or times, for the purpose of (a) meeting any legal requirements of any state in which the Trustee determines it necessary to take any action hereunder; or (b) establishing the eligibility of any Financed Student Loans for receipt of federal payments with respect thereto, the Trustee shall have power to appoint, and, upon the request of the Trustee or of the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate Principal Amount of Notes Outstanding or of any Other Beneficiary, the Issuer shall for such purpose join with the Trustee in the execution, delivery and performance of all instruments and agreements necessary or proper to appoint one or more Persons approved by the Trustee either to act as co-trustee or co-trustees, jointly with the Trustee of all or any part of the trust estate, or to act as separate trustee or separate trustees of all or any part of the trust estate, and to vest in such person or persons, in such capacity, such title to the trust estate or any part thereof, and such rights, powers, duties, trusts or obligations as the Trustee may consider necessary or desirable, subject to the remaining provisions of this Section 7.12. No co-trustee or separate trustee hereunder shall be required to meet the terms of eligibility as a successor Trustee under Section 7.13 hereof and no notice to Noteholders of the appointment of any co-trustee or separate trustee shall be required under Section 7.08 hereof.

          If the Issuer shall not have joined in such appointment within 15 days after the receipt by it of a request so to do, or in case an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Trustee alone shall have power to make such appointment.

          The Issuer shall execute, acknowledge and deliver all such instruments as may be required by any such co-trustee or separate trustee.

          Every co-trustee or separate trustee shall, to the extent permitted by law but to such extent only, be appointed subject to the following terms, namely:

          (a)      The Notes shall be authenticated and delivered, and all rights, powers, trusts, duties and obligations by this Indenture conferred upon the Trustee in respect of the custody, control and management of moneys, papers, securities and other personal property shall be exercised, solely by the Trustee.


          (b)      All rights, powers, trusts, duties and obligations conferred or imposed upon the trustees shall be conferred or imposed upon and exercised or performed by the Trustee, or by the Trustee and such co-trustee or co-trustees or separate trustee or separate trustees jointly, as shall be provided in the instrument appointing such co-trustee or co-trustees or separate trustee or separate trustees, except to the extent that, under the law of any jurisdiction in which any particular act or acts are to be performed, the Trustee shall be incompetent or unqualified to perform such act or acts, in which event such act or acts shall be performed by such co-trustee or co-trustees or separate trustee or separate trustees.


          (c)      Any request in writing by the Trustee to any co-trustee or separate trustee to take or to refrain from taking any action hereunder shall be sufficient warrant for the taking, or the refraining from taking, of such action by such co-trustee or separate trustee.


          (d)      Any co-trustee or separate trustee may delegate to the Trustee the exercise of any right, power, trust, duty or obligations, discretionary or otherwise.


          (e)      The Trustee at any time, by any instrument in writing, may accept the resignation of or remove any co-trustee or separate trustee appointed under this Section 7.12. Upon the request of the Trustee, the Issuer shall join with the Trustee in the execution, delivery and performance of all instruments and agreements necessary or proper to effectuate such resignation or removal.


          (f)      No trustee hereunder shall be personally liable by reason of any act or omission of any other trustee hereunder.


          (g)      Any demand, request, direction, appointment, removal, notice, consent, waiver or other action in writing delivered to the Trustee shall be deemed to have been delivered to each such co-trustee or separate trustee.


          (h)      Any moneys, papers, securities or other items of personal property received by any such co-trustee or separate trustee hereunder shall forthwith, so far as may be permitted by law, be turned over to the Trustee.


          Upon the acceptance in writing of such appointment by any such co-trustee or separate trustee, it or he or she shall be vested with such title to the trust estate or any part thereof, and with such rights, powers, duties or obligations, as shall be specified in the instrument of appointment jointly with the Trustee (except insofar as local law makes it necessary for any such co-trustee or separate trustee to act alone) subject to all the terms of this Indenture. Every such acceptance shall be filed with the Trustee. Any co-trustee or separate trustee may, at any time by an instrument in writing, constitute the Trustee, his, her or its attorney-in-fact and agent, with full power and authority to do all acts and things and to exercise all discretion on his, her or its behalf and in his, her or its name.

          In case any co-trustee or separate trustee shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, the title to the trust estate, and all rights, powers, trusts, duties and obligations of said co-trustee or separate trustee shall, so far as permitted by law, vest in and be exercised by the Trustee unless and until a successor co-trustee or separate trustee shall be appointed in the manner herein provided.

There shall at all times be a Trustee hereunder which shall be eligible to act as Trustee under TIA Section 310(a)(1) and shall have a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000 (and, with respect to any successor Trustee, having a rating of at least “Baa3” from Moody’s unless a Rating Agency Condition is satisfied). If such corporation publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or the requirements of federal, state, territorial or District of Columbia supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section 7.13, the combined capital and surplus of such corporation shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. If at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section 7.13, it shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in this Article VII. Neither the Issuer nor any Person directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by, or under common control with, the Issuer shall serve as Trustee.

           Section 7.14. Statement by Trustee of Funds and Accounts and Other Matters. Not more than 30 days after the close of each Fiscal Year the Trustee shall furnish the Issuer and any Noteholder or Other Beneficiary filing with the Trustee a written request for a copy, a statement setting forth (to the extent applicable) in respect to such Fiscal Year, (a) all transactions relating to the receipt, disbursement and application of all moneys received by the Trustee pursuant to all terms of this Indenture; (b) the Balances held by the Trustee at the end of such Fiscal Year to the credit of each Fund and Account; (c) a brief description of all moneys, Financed Student Loans and Investment Securities held by the Trustee as part of the Balance of each Fund and Account as of the end of such Fiscal Year; (d) the Principal Amount of Notes of each series purchased by the Trustee during such Fiscal Year from moneys available therefor in any Fund pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture and the respective purchase price of such Notes; (e) the Principal Amount of Notes of each series retired, at their Stated Maturity or by prepayment, during such Fiscal Year and the Prepayment Prices thereof, if any; and (f) any other information which the Issuer may reasonably request.

Neither the Trustee nor any Authenticating Agent, Note Registrar, Paying Agent, Remarketing Agent, Tender Agent, Auction Agent, Market Agent or Broker-Dealer shall constitute a Beneficiary under the Indenture and subsequent to the issuance of the Initial Notes, the Issuer shall use its best efforts to require that any agreement entered into with the foregoing parties shall contain an agreement by such parties not to file an involuntary bankruptcy petition against the Issuer.

           Section 7.16. Authenticating Agent and Paying Agents; Paying Agents To Hold Moneys in Trust. Any Paying Agent for a series of Notes shall be appointed by or pursuant to a Supplemental Indenture providing for the issuance of such series of Notes. Each Paying Agent shall hold in trust for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes and the Trustee any sums held by such Paying Agent for the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on and any Carry-Over Amounts (and accrued interest thereon) and Series IO Carry-Over Interest with respect to the Notes. Anything in this paragraph to the contrary notwithstanding, the Issuer may, at any time, for the purpose of obtaining a satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, or for any other reason, cause to be paid to the Trustee all sums held in trust by any Paying Agent hereunder as required by this paragraph, such sums to be held by the Trustee upon the trusts herein contained, and such Paying Agent shall thereupon be released from all further liability with respect to such sums.

          Any Authenticating Agent for a series of Notes shall be appointed by or pursuant to a Supplemental Indenture providing for the issuance of such series of Notes. The Authenticating Agent shall have the power to act in the receipt, authentication and delivery of Notes in connection with transfers, exchanges and registrations hereunder.

          Each Authenticating Agent and Paying Agent other than the Trustee shall designate its Principal Office and signify its acceptance of the duties and obligations imposed upon it by this Indenture by executing and delivering to the Issuer a written acceptance thereof under which, in the case of the Paying Agent, the Paying Agent will agree particularly:

          (a)      to hold all sums held by it pursuant to this Indenture in trust for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes until such sums shall be paid to such Holders or otherwise disposed of as herein provided;


          (b)      at any time during the continuance of any Event of Default, upon the written request of the Trustee, to forthwith pay to the Trustee all sums so held in trust by such Paying Agent; and

           The principal of the Series 2006-1 Notes (other than the Series 2006-1A-IO Notes), together with interest payable on the Series 2006-1 Notes at the Maturity thereof if the date of such Maturity is not a regularly scheduled Interest Payment Date, shall be payable in lawful money of the United States of America (except for an Series 2006-1 Reset rate Notes that are designated in a different currency) upon, except as otherwise provided in Section 8 hereof, presentation and surrender of such Series 2006-1 Notes at the Principal Office of the Trustee, as Paying Agent with respect to the Series 2006-1 Notes, or a duly appointed successor Paying Agent. Interest due on the Series 2006-1 Notes on each regularly scheduled Interest Payment Date shall, except as otherwise provided in Section 8 hereof, be paid by check or draft drawn upon the Paying Agent and mailed to the person who is the Holder thereof as of 5:00 p.m. on the Regular Record Date for such Interest Payment Date at the address of such Holder as it appears on the Note Register, or, in the case of any Series 2006-1 Note the Holder of which is the Holder of Series 2006-1 Notes in the aggregate Principal Amount or Notional Amount of $1,000,000 or more (or, if less than $1,000,000 in Principal Amount or Notional Amount of Series 2006-1 Notes is Outstanding, the Holder of all outstanding Series 2006-1 Notes), at the direction of such Holder received by the Paying Agent by 5:00 p.m. on the last Business Day preceding the applicable Regular Record Date, by electronic transfer by the Paying Agent in immediately available funds to an account designated by such Holder. Any interest not so timely paid or duly provided for (herein referred to as "Defaulted Interest") shall cease to be payable to the person who is the Holder thereof at the close of business on the Regular Record Date and shall be payable to the person who is the Holder thereof at the close of business on a Special Record Date for the payment of any such Defaulted Interest. Such Special Record Date shall be fixed by the Trustee whenever moneys become available for payment of the Defaulted Interest, and notice of the Special Record Date shall be given to the Holders of the Series 2006-1 Notes with respect to which such Defaulted Interest is to be paid, not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date by first-class mail to each such Holder as shown on the Note Register on a date selected by the Trustee, stating the date of the Special Record Date and the date fixed for the payment of such Defaulted Interest. All payments of principal of and premium, if any, and interest on the Series 2006-1 Notes shall be made in lawful money of the United States of America, except for any Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes that are designated in a different currency.

           The Series 2006-1 Notes are subject to redemption prior to their Stated Maturity upon the terms and conditions specified in Section 7 hereof.

           Subject to the provisions of the Indenture, the Series 2006-1 Notes shall be in substantially the form set forth in Exhibit A-1, Exhibit A-2, Exhibit A-3 and Exhibit B hereto, with such variations, omissions and insertions as may be required by the circumstances, be required or permitted by the Indenture, or be consistent with the Indenture and necessary or appropriate to conform to the rules and requirements of any governmental authority or any usage or requirement of law with respect thereto.

           Section 3. Interest Payable On Series 2006-1 Notes. Each series of the Series 2006-1 Notes shall bear interest at the Applicable Interest Rate for the number of days of the applicable Interest Period, as determined pursuant to this Section 3 and, with respect to the Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes, Annex I hereto and, with respect to the Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes, Annex II hereto. The Series 2006-1A-IO Senior Notes shall be entitled to Series IO Carry-Over Interest pursuant to Section 4.05(x) of the Base Indenture after their Stated Maturity.

           On each LIBOR Determination Date, the Trustee shall determine LIBOR and the Applicable Interest Rate for each series of Series 2006-1 LIBOR Rate Notes for the upcoming Interest Period. Promptly following each LIBOR Determination Date, the Trustee shall provide the Issuer Administrator with written notice of LIBOR and the Applicable Interest Rates so determined. The Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes shall accrue interest as specified in Annex I hereto. The Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes shall accrue interest as specified in Annex II hereto.

           Section 4. Additional Provisions Regarding the Applicable Interest Rate for the Series 2006-1 LIBOR Rate Notes. The determination of LIBOR and each Applicable Interest Rate for the Series 2006-1 LIBOR Rate Notes by the Trustee pursuant to the provisions of Section 3 hereof shall be conclusive and binding on the Holders of the Notes, and the Issuer and the Issuer Administrator may rely thereon for all purposes.

           In no event shall the cumulative amount of interest paid or payable on a series of Series 2006-1 LIBOR Rate Notes (including interest calculated as provided herein, plus any other amounts that constitute interest on the Series 2006-1 LIBOR Rate Notes of such series under applicable law, which are contracted for, charged, reserved, taken or received pursuant to the Series 2006-1 LIBOR Rate Notes of such series or related documents) calculated from the Closing Date through any subsequent day during the term of such series or otherwise prior to payment in full of the Series 2006-1 LIBOR Rate Notes of such series exceed the amount permitted by applicable law. If the applicable law is ever judicially interpreted so as to render usurious any amount called for under the Series 2006-1 LIBOR Rate Notes of a series or related documents or otherwise contracted for, charged, reserved, taken or received in connection with the Series 2006-1 LIBOR Rate Notes of such series, or if the redemption or acceleration of the maturity of the Series 2006-1 LIBOR Rate Notes of such series results in payment to or receipt by the Holder or any former Holder of the Series 2006-1 LIBOR Rate Notes of such series of any interest in excess of that permitted by applicable law, then, notwithstanding any provision of the Series 2006-1 LIBOR Rate Notes of such series or related documents to the contrary, all excess amounts theretofore paid or received with respect to the Series 2006-1 LIBOR Rate Notes of such series shall be credited on the Principal Amount of the Series 2006-1 LIBOR Rate Notes of such series (or, if the Series 2006-1 LIBOR Rate Notes of such series have been paid or would thereby be paid in full, refunded by the recipient thereof), and the provisions of the Series 2006-1 LIBOR Rate Notes of such series and related documents shall automatically and immediately be deemed reformed and the amounts thereafter collectible hereunder and thereunder reduced, without the necessity of the execution of any new document, so as to comply with the applicable law, but so as to permit the recovery of the fullest amount otherwise called for under the Series 2006-1 LIBOR Rate Notes of such series and under the related documents.

           Section 5. Purposes of Issuance of Series 2006-1 Notes. The Series 2006-1 Notes are being issued (a) to provide funds to be used to acquire Student Loans, (b) to fund the Reserve Fund and (c) to pay the costs of issuing the Series 2006-1 Notes.

           Section 6. Deposit of Series 2006-1 Note Proceeds. From the net proceeds derived from the sale of the Series 2006-1 Notes on the Closing Date $1,754, 345,905, there shall be deposited with the Trustee:

             (a) for credit to the Acquisition Fund, an amount equal to $1,741,595,905 ($1,591,821,629 of which will be used to pay the costs of issuance other than the underwriting discount); and

             (b) for credit to the Reserve Fund, an amount equal to $12,750,000.

           Section 7. Redemption of Series 2006-1 Notes. The Series 2006-1 Notes are subject to redemption as provided in this Section 7.

             (a) Prior to their Stated Maturity, the Series 2006-1 Notes shall not receive distributions pursuant to Section 4.05(e) of the Base Indenture.

             (b) So long as any Series 2003-2 Notes are Outstanding, on each Monthly Calculation Date the Trustee, upon receipt of an Issuer Order, shall transfer to the Retirement Account and allocate to the Series 2003-2 Notes pursuant to Section 4.05(m) of the Base Indenture (to the extent amounts are available in the Collection Fund or the Surplus Fund, after taking into account all prior application of moneys in those Funds on that Monthly Calculation Date) an amount equal to the amount determined by the following formula:

           TA = [(TB) x (F/3)] – RAB

           Where

           TA = Amount to be transferred to the Retirement Account and allocated to the Series 2003-2 Notes on the Monthly Calculation Date.

           TB = Excess, if any, of the aggregate outstanding Principal Amount of each series of Series 2003-2 Notes immediately prior to the Monthly Calculation Date less the aggregate Targeted Balance of each series of Series 2003-2 Notes listed on Schedule I hereto for the next Quarterly Distribution Date or, if such Monthly Calculation Date is also a Quarterly Distribution Date, the Targeted Balance for that Quarterly Distribution Date.

           F = 1 for the first Monthly Calculation Date occurring in an Interest Period, 2 for the second Monthly Calculation Date occurring in an Interest Period and 3 for the third Monthly Calculation Date occurring in an Interest Period.

           RAB = Amount on deposit in the Retirement Account immediately prior to such Monthly Calculation Date and allocated to the Series 2003-2 Notes, including any amounts received pursuant to Section 4.05(w) of the Base Indenture.

           If on any Monthly Calculation Date, the amount resulting from the formula above is zero or a negative amount, no additional amounts will be transferred to the Retirement Account and allocated to the Series 2003-2 Notes on that Monthly Calculation Date.

           So long as any Series 2003-2 Notes are Outstanding, on each Quarterly Distribution Date the Trustee, upon receipt of an Issuer Order, shall use amounts on deposit in the Retirement Account to redeem Series 2003-2 Notes up to the amount needed to reduce their outstanding Principal Amount to their Targeted Balance listed on Schedule I hereto for that Quarterly Distribution Date.

           Prior to an Event of Default under the Base Indenture, no Series 2003-2 Note will receive a payment of principal if a Series 2003-2 Note with a lower numerical designation is outstanding.

           The Series 2004-1 Notes, the Series 2005-1 Notes and the Series 2006-1 Notes will not receive distributions pursuant to Section 4.05(m) of the Base Indenture. Rather, they will receive distributions pursuant to Section 4.05(w) of the Base Indenture.

             (c) Redemption of Notes will be made pursuant to Section 4.05(w) of the Base Indenture as follows:

  First, to redeem each series of Series 2004-1 LIBOR Rate Notes following its Principal Lock-out Period, sequentially in numerical order starting with the Series 2004-1A-1 Senior Notes and ending with the Series 2004-1A-4 Senior Notes, until their outstanding Principal Amount is reduced to zero.

Second, to redeem each series of Series 2005-1 LIBOR Rate Notes up to the amount needed to reduce their outstanding Principal Amount to their Targeted Balance listed on Schedule I hereto for that Quarterly Distribution Date. Redemptions will be made up to these amounts even if the Senior Asset Percentage and Subordinate Asset Percentage would exceed the Asset Release Requirement.

Third, to redeem each series of Series 2006-1 LIBOR Rate Notes up to the amount needed to reduce their outstanding Principal Amount to their Targeted Balance listed on Schedule I hereto for that Quarterly Distribution Date. Redemptions will be made up to these amounts even if the Senior Asset Percentage and Subordinate Asset Percentage would exceed the Asset Release Requirement.

Fourth, if so provided for a series of Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes for a Reset Period subsequent to the initial Reset Period or if a Failed Remarketing has occurred with respect to a series of Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes, to redeem such series (or if a Failed Remarketing has occurred with respect to both series of the Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes, to redeem each series of the Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes on a pro rata basis; provided that if a series of the Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes is structured to receive payments of principal only at the end of its Reset Period, amounts allocated to such series will be deposited into the applicable Account in the Accumulation Fund and used to redeem such series of Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes on its next Reset Date). However, the Issuer may elect not to redeem Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes under priority fourth upon a Failed Remarketing if the Rating Agency Condition has been satisfied with respect thereto.

Fifth, to redeem each series of Auction Rate Notes issued by the Issuer that are then permitted to be redeemed, including any series of subordinate Auction Rate Notes. The specific series of Auction Rate Notes to be redeemed will be determined by Issuer Order and the redemptions will occur on the dates determined for the applicable series pursuant to the terms of the applicable Supplemental Indenture pursuant to which such series of Auction Rate Notes was issued. However, so long as the Series 2003-2 Notes are Outstanding, if on the first two Monthly Calculation Dates occurring in an Interest Accrual Period, the amount on deposit in the Retirement Account and allocated to the Series 2003-2 Notes is less than the full amount needed to reduce their outstanding Principal Amount to their Targeted Balance on the next Quarterly Distribution Date, amounts available in this priority fifth, up to the amount of such deficiency, will be transferred to the Retirement Account and allocated to the Series 2003-2 Notes prior to redeeming any Auction Rate Notes.

Sixth, to redeem each series of the Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes still Outstanding on a pro rata basis (or, if a series of the Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes is structured to receive payments of principal only at the end of its Reset Period, amounts allocated to such series will be deposited into the applicable Account in the Accumulation Fund and used to redeem such series of Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes on its next Reset Date).

Seventh, to redeem each series of Series 2003-2 Senior Notes sequentially in ascending numerical order, until their outstanding Principal Amount is reduced to zero.

Eighth, to redeem each series of Series 2004-1 LIBOR Rate Notes during its Principal Lock-out Period, sequentially in numerical order starting with the Series 2004-1A-1 Senior Notes and ending with the Series 2004-1A-4 Senior Notes, until their outstanding Principal Amount is reduced to zero.

Ninth, to redeem each series of Series 2005-1 LIBOR Rate Notes, sequentially in numerical order starting with the Series 2005-1A-1 Senior Notes and ending with the Series 2005-1A-5 Senior Notes, until their outstanding Principal Amount is reduced to zero.

Tenth, to redeem each series of Series 2006-1 LIBOR Rate Notes, sequentially in numerical order starting with the Series 2006-1A-1 Senior Notes and ending with the Series 2006-1A-6 Senior Notes, until their outstanding Principal Amount is reduced to zero.

             (d) When the Series 2005-1 LIBOR Rate Notes or Series 2006-1 LIBOR Rate Notes are receiving principal distributions, on each Monthly Calculation Date the Trustee, upon receipt of an Issuer Order, shall transfer to the Retirement Account and allocate to the Series 2005-1 LIBOR Rate Notes or the Series 2006-1 LIBOR Rate Notes pursuant to Section 4.05(w) of the Base Indenture (to the extent amounts are available in the Collection Fund or the Surplus Fund, after taking into account all prior application of moneys in those Funds on that Monthly Calculation Date) an amount equal to the amount determined by the following formula calculated first, for the Series 2005-1 LIBOR Rate Notes and second, to the extent any amounts remain in the Collection Fund or the Surplus Fund, for the Series 2006-1 LIBOR Rate Notes:

           TA = TB – RAB

           Where

           TA = Amount to be transferred to the Retirement Account and allocated to the Series 2005-1 LIBOR Rate Notes or Series 2006-1 LIBOR Rate Notes, as applicable, on the Monthly Calculation Date.

           TB = Excess, if any, of the aggregate outstanding Principal Amount of each series of Series 2005-1 LIBOR Rate Notes or Series 2006-1 LIBOR Rate Notes, as applicable, immediately prior to the Monthly Calculation Date less the aggregate Targeted Balance of each such series listed on Schedule I hereto for the next Quarterly Distribution Date or, if such Monthly Calculation Date is also a Quarterly Distribution Date, the Targeted Balance for that Quarterly Distribution Date.

           RAB = Amount on deposit in the Retirement Account immediately prior to such Monthly Calculation Date and allocated to the Series 2005-1 LIBOR Rate Notes or the Series 2006-1 LIBOR Rate Notes, as applicable.

           If on any Quarterly Distribution Date on which the Series 2003-2 Notes are receiving principal distributions, the amount in the Retirement Account allocated to the Series 2003-2 Notes is less than the amount needed to reduce their outstanding Principal Amount to their Targeted Balance for that Quarterly Distribution Date, amounts in the Retirement Account allocated to the Series 2006-1 LIBOR Rate Notes, up to the amount of the deficiency, will be reallocated from the Series 2006-1 LIBOR Rate Notes to the Series 2003-2 Notes. If, after giving effect to the previous sentence, the amount in the Retirement Account allocated to the Series 2003-2 Notes is less than the amount needed to reduce their outstanding Principal Amount to their Targeted Balance for that Quarterly Distribution Date, amounts in the Retirement Account allocated to the Series 2005-1 LIBOR Rate Notes, up to the amount of the deficiency, will be reallocated from the Series 2005-1 LIBOR Rate Notes to the Series 2003-2 Notes.

           Pursuant to the allocations described in the preceding paragraphs, on each Quarterly Distribution Date occurring when the Series 2005-1 LIBOR Rate Notes or the Series 2006-1 LIBOR Rate Notes are receiving principal distributions, the Trustee will use amounts on deposit in the Retirement Account and allocated to the Series 2005-1 LIBOR Rate Notes or the Series 2006-1 LIBOR Rate Notes, as applicable, to redeem the Series 2005-1 LIBOR Rate Notes and Series 2006-1 LIBOR Rate Notes, up to the amount needed to reduce their outstanding Principal Amount to their respective Targeted Balances listed on Schedule I hereto for that Quarterly Distribution Date

As a result of the priorities described above, prior to an Event of Default under the Indenture:

           (i) so long as any Series 2003-2 Notes remain Outstanding, deposits will be made to the Retirement Account for the Series 2003-2 Notes pursuant to Section 4.05(m) of the Base Indenture prior to any other series of Notes issued by the Issuer receiving a principal payment, except for payments due at the Stated Maturity of a series of Notes.

           (ii) so long as any Series 2004-1 LIBOR Rate Note is Outstanding and not in a Principal Lock-out Period, no Series 2005-1 Note or Series 2006-1 Note will receive payments of principal;

           (iii) so long as any Series 2005-1 LIBOR Rate Note is Outstanding and has not been paid to its Targeted Balance for that Quarterly Distribution Date, no Series 2006-1 Note will receive payments of principal;

           (iv) the Series 2006-1A-2 Senior Notes will not receive any payments of principal so long as any Series 2006-1A-1 Senior Notes remain Outstanding;

           (v) the Series 2006-1A-3 Senior Notes will not receive any payments of principal so long as any Series 2006-1A-2 Senior Notes remain Outstanding;

           (vi) the Series 2006-1A-4 Senior Notes will not receive any payments of principal so long as any Series 2006-1A-3 Senior Notes remain Outstanding;

           (vii) the Series 2006-1A-5 Senior Notes will not receive any payments of principal so long as any Series 2006-1A-4 Notes remain Outstanding;

           (viii) the Series 2006-1A-6 Senior Notes will not receive any payments of principal so long as any Series 2006-1A-5 Notes remain Outstanding; and

           (ix) no series of Series 2006-1 LIBOR Rate Notes will receive any payments of principal exceeding the amount needed to reduce its outstanding Principal Amount to the Targeted Balance listed on Schedule I for the applicable Quarterly Distribution Date unless the Issuer has redeemed previously each series of Auction Rate Notes that are then permitted to be redeemed, each series of Series 2006-1A Reset Rate Notes (or if a series of Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes is not then receiving payments of principal, an amount equal to the outstanding Principal Amount of such series of Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes has been deposited into the Accumulation Fund), each series of Series 2003-2 Notes, each series of Series 2004-1 LIBOR Rate Notes and each series of Series 2005-1 LIBOR Rate Notes.

             (e) Optional Redemption of Series 2006-1B Subordinate Notes. Subject to compliance with Section 3.02 of the Base Indenture and Section 10 hereof, Series 2006-1B Subordinate Notes may, at the option of the Issuer and from amounts credited to the Retirement Account for such purpose, be redeemed on any regularly scheduled Interest Payment Date for such series, in whole or in part, at a price equal to 100% of the Principal Amount of Series 2006-1B Subordinate Notes to be redeemed plus accrued interest thereon to the date of redemption.

             (f) Selection of Series 2006-1 Notes for Redemption. If less than all Outstanding Series 2006-1A-1 Senior Notes, Series 2006-1A-2 Senior Notes, Series 2006-1A-3 Senior Notes, Series 2006-1A-4 Senior Notes, Series 2006-1A-5 Senior Notes or Series 2006-1A-6 Senior Notes are to be redeemed pursuant to this Section 7, redemptions will be made to the Noteholders of the series of Series 2006-1 LIBOR Rate Notes being redeemed on a pro rata basis based upon the Percentage Interest represented by their respective Notes.

             If less than all of the Outstanding Series 2006-1B Subordinate Notes are to be redeemed pursuant to this Section 7, the particular Series 2006-1B Subordinate Notes to be redeemed shall be selected by the Trustee by lot in such manner as the Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate and which may provide for the selection for redemption of portions of the principal of Series 2006-1B Notes in an Authorized Denomination.

             The Trustee shall promptly notify the Note Registrar and any Paying Agent for the Series 2006-1 Notes (in each case, if other than the Trustee) in writing of the Series 2006-1 Notes selected for redemption and, in the case of any Series 2006-1 Note selected for partial redemption, the Principal Amount thereof to be redeemed.

             For all purposes of the Indenture, unless the context otherwise requires, all provisions relating to the redemption of Series 2006-1 Notes shall relate, in the case of any Series 2006-1 Note redeemed or to be redeemed only in part, to the portion of the principal of such Series 2006-1 Note which has been or is to be redeemed.

             (g) Notice of Redemption. The provisions of Section 3.04 of the Base Indenture shall not apply to the Series 2006-1 Senior Notes. Notice of redemption of Series 2006-1B Subordinate Notes pursuant to this Section 7 shall be given not less than ten days nor more than 30 days prior to the Prepayment Date in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.04 of the Base Indenture.

           Section 8. Book-Entry Series 2006-1 Notes.

             (a) Subject to subsection (c) below, the registered Holder of all Series 2006-1 Notes (other than any Individual Notes) shall be the Securities Depository, and the Series 2006-1 Notes (other than any Individual Notes) shall be registered in the name of the nominee for the Securities Depository.

             (b) The Series 2006-1 Notes shall be initially issued in the form of one or more separate, authenticated fully-registered Series 2006-1 Notes for each series thereof in the aggregate Principal Amount of such series. Upon initial issuance, the ownership of each such Series 2006-1 Note shall be registered in the registration books kept by the Note Registrar in the name of the nominee of the Securities Depository. The Trustee and the Issuer may treat the Securities Depository (or its nominee) as the sole and exclusive owner of the Series 2006-1 Notes (other than any Individual Notes) registered in its name for the purposes of (i) payment of the principal or Prepayment Price of and interest on the Series 2006-1 Notes, (ii) selecting the Series 2006-1 Notes or portions thereof to be redeemed, (iii) giving any notice permitted or required to be given to Holders under the Indenture, (iv) registering the transfer of Series 2006-1 Notes, and (v) obtaining any consent or other action to be taken by Holders and for all other purposes whatsoever, and neither the Trustee nor the Issuer shall be affected by any notice to the contrary (except as provided in subsection (c) below). Neither the Trustee nor the Issuer shall have any responsibility or obligation to any Participant, any beneficial owner of Series 2006-1 Notes or any other Person claiming a beneficial ownership interest in the Series 2006-1 Notes under or through the Securities Depository or any Participant, or any other Person which is not shown on the registration books of the Note Registrar as being a Holder, with respect to the accuracy of any records maintained by the Securities Depository or any Participant, the payment to the Securities Depository of any amount in respect of the principal or Prepayment Price of or interest on the Series 2006-1 Notes; any notice which is permitted or required to be given to Holders under the Indenture; the selection by the Securities Depository or any Participant of any Person to receive payment in the event of a partial redemption of the Series 2006-1 Notes; or any consent given or other action taken by the Securities Depository as Holder. The Trustee shall pay all principal and Prepayment Price of and interest on the Series 2006-1 Notes (other than any Individual Notes) only to or upon the order of the Securities Depository, and all such payments shall be valid and effective to fully satisfy and discharge the Issuer's obligations with respect to the principal, purchase price or Prepayment Price of and interest on the Series 2006-1 Notes (other than any Individual Notes) to the extent of the sum or sums so paid. Except as provided in subsection (c) below, no Person other than the Securities Depository shall receive an authenticated Series 2006-1 Note evidencing the obligation of the Issuer to make payments of principal or Prepayment Price and interest pursuant to this Seventh Supplement. Upon delivery by the Securities Depository to the Trustee of written notice to the effect that the Securities Depository has determined to substitute a new nominee in place of the preceding nominee, the Series 2006-1 Notes (other than any Individual Notes) will be transferable to such new nominee in accordance with subsection (f) of this Section 8.

             (c) The Securities Depository may determine to discontinue providing its services with respect to the Series 2006-1 Notes at any time by giving notice to the Issuer and the Trustee and discharging its responsibilities with respect thereto under applicable law, or the Issuer may determine that the Securities Depository is incapable of discharging its responsibilities and may so advise the Securities Depository. In either such event, the Issuer shall either establish its own Book-Entry System or use reasonable efforts to locate another securities depository. Under such circumstances (if there is no successor Securities Depository), the Issuer and the Trustee shall be obligated to deliver definitive Series 2006-1 Notes as described in the Indenture and in accordance with subsection (f) below. In the event definitive Series 2006-1 Notes are issued, the provisions of the Indenture and this Supplemental Indenture shall apply to such definitive Series 2006-1 Notes in all respects, including, among other things, the transfer and exchange of such Series 2006-1 Notes and the method of payment of principal or Prepayment Price of and interest on such Series 2006-1 Notes. Whenever the Securities Depository requests the Issuer and the Trustee to do so, the Issuer and the Trustee will cooperate with the Securities Depository in taking appropriate action after reasonable notice (i) to make available one or more separate definitive Series 2006-1 Notes to any Participant having Series 2006-1 Notes credited to its account with the Securities Depository or (ii) to arrange for another securities depository to maintain custody of definitive Series 2006-1 Notes.

             (d) Notwithstanding any other provision of the Indenture to the contrary, so long as any Series 2006-1 Note is registered in the name of the nominee of the Securities Depository, all payments with respect to the principal or Prepayment Price of and interest on such Series 2006-1 Note and all notices with respect to such Series 2006-1 Note shall be made and given, respectively, to the Securities Depository as provided in its letter of representations.

             (e) In connection with any notice or other communication to be provided to Holders pursuant to the Indenture by the Issuer or the Trustee or with respect to any consent or other action to be taken by Holders, the Issuer or the Trustee, as the case may be, shall establish a record date for such consent or other action and give the Securities Depository notice of such record date not less than 15 calendar days in advance of such record date (or such longer time as may be required by the Securities Depository) to the extent possible. Such notice to the Securities Depository shall be given only when the Securities Depository is the sole Holder.

             (f) In the event that any transfer or exchange of Series 2006-1 Notes is permitted under subsection (b) or (c) of this Section 8, such transfer or exchange shall be accomplished upon receipt by the Trustee from the registered Holder thereof of the Series 2006-1 Notes to be transferred or exchanged and appropriate instruments of transfer to the permitted transferee, all in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Indenture. In the event definitive Series 2006-1 Notes are issued to Holders other than the nominee of the Securities Depository, or another securities depository as Holder of all the Series 2006-1 Notes, the provisions of the Indenture shall also apply to, among other things, the printing of such definitive Series 2006-1 Notes and the methods of payment of principal or Prepayment Price of and interest on such Series 2006-1 Notes.

           Section 9. Limitation on Fees.

             (a) For so long as any Series 2006-1 Notes shall be Outstanding, the Issuer covenants and agrees that the Note Fees with respect to the Series 2006-1 Notes to be paid, or reimbursed to the Issuer, from the Administration Fund shall not, in any year, exceed the sum of (a) the annual fees of the Trustee, the Delaware Trustee, the Verification Agent, the Back-up Administrator and the Eligible Lender Trustee in effect as of the Closing Date, plus (b) the Broker-Dealer Fees payable at the Broker-Dealer Fee Rate in effect as of the Closing Date, plus (c) the Auction Agent Fees payable at the Auction Agent Fee Rate in effect as of the Closing Date, plus (d) the remarketing fees payable pursuant to the Remarketing Agreement, unless the Rating Agency Condition is satisfied with respect to any such excess amount.

             (b) The Issuer covenants and agrees that the aggregate amount of Servicing Fees, Administration Fees and Note Fees paid from the Administration Fund shall not, in any Fiscal Year, exceed the sum of such fees provided for in the Cash Flows provided to each Rating Agency on the Closing Date for the Series 2006-1 Notes, unless a Rating Agency Condition is satisfied with respect to any such excess amount.

             (i) Subject to this Section 23, so long as a Global Note remains outstanding and is held by or on behalf of the Securities Depository, transfers of beneficial interests in the Global Note, or transfers by holders of Individual Notes to transferees that take delivery in the form of beneficial interests in the Global Note, may be made only in accordance with this Section 23(i) and in accordance with the rules of the Securities Depository.

Upon receipt by the Note Registrar at its Principal Office of (1) written instructions given in accordance with the Applicable Procedures from a Participant directing the Note Registrar to credit or cause to be credited to another specified Participant's account a beneficial interest in the Regulation S Global Note in an amount equal to the denomination of the beneficial interest in the Rule 144A Global Note to be transferred, (2) a written order given in accordance with the Applicable Procedures containing information regarding the account of the Participant (and the Euroclear or Clearstream account, as the case may be) to be credited with, and the account of the Participant to be debited for, such beneficial interest, and (3) a certificate in the form of Exhibit J hereto given by the Beneficial Owner that is transferring such interest, the Note Registrar shall instruct the Securities Depository to reduce the denomination of the Rule 144A Global Note by the denomination of the beneficial interest in the Rule 144A Global Note to be so transferred and, concurrently with such reduction, to increase the denomination of the Regulation S Global Note by the denomination of the beneficial interest in the Rule 144A Global Note to be so transferred, and to credit or cause to be credited to the account of the Person specified in such instructions (who shall be a Participant acting for or on behalf of Euroclear or Clearstream, or both, as the case may be) a beneficial interest in the Regulation S Global Note having a denomination equal to the amount by which the denomination of the Rule 144A Global Note was reduced upon such transfer.

             (B) Rule 144A Global Note to Regulation S Global Note After the Restricted Period. If, after the Restricted Period, a Beneficial Owner of an interest in a Rule 144A Global Note wishes at any time to transfer its beneficial interest in such Rule 144A Global Note to a Person who wishes to take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in a Regulation S Global Note, such holder may, in addition to complying with all Applicable Procedures, transfer or cause the transfer of such beneficial interest for an equivalent beneficial interest in a Regulation S Global Note only upon compliance with the provisions of this Section 23 (i)(B).

             (C) Regulation S Global Note to Rule 144A Global Note. If the Beneficial Owner of an interest in a Regulation S Global Note wishes at any time to transfer its beneficial interest in such Regulation S Global Note to a Person who wishes to take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in a Rule 144A Global Note, such holder may, in addition to complying with all Applicable Procedures, transfer or cause the transfer of such beneficial interest for an equivalent beneficial interest in the Rule 144A Global Note only upon compliance with the provisions of this Section 23(i)(C).

             (D) Transfers Within Regulation S Global Notes During Restricted Period. If, during the Restricted Period, the Beneficial Owner of an interest in a Regulation S Global Note wishes at any time to transfer its beneficial interest in such Note to a Person who wishes to take delivery thereof in the form of a Regulation S Global Note, such Beneficial Owner may transfer or cause the transfer of such beneficial interest for an equivalent beneficial interest in such Regulation S Global Note only upon compliance with the provisions of this Section 23(i)(D) and all Applicable Procedures.

The Note Registrar shall not be required to monitor compliance by Beneficial Owners of the provisions of this Section 23(i)(D).

             (ii) Transfers of Global Notes to Individual Notes. Any and all transfers from a Global Note to a transferee wishing to take delivery in the form of an Individual Note will require the transferee to take delivery subject to the restrictions on the transfer of such Individual Note described on the face of such Individual Note, and such transferee agrees that it will transfer such Individual Note only as provided therein and herein. No such transfer shall be made and the Note Registrar shall not register any such transfer unless such transfer is made in accordance with this Section 23(ii).

             (A) Transfers of a beneficial interest in a Global Note to an Institutional Accredited Investor will require delivery of such Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Note to the transferee in the form of an Individual Note and the Note Registrar shall register such transfer only if prior to the transfer such transferee furnishes to the Note Registrar (1) a Transferee Letter to the effect that the transfer is being made to an Institutional Accredited Investor in accordance with an applicable exemption under the Securities Act and other applicable laws, and (2) an opinion of counsel acceptable to the Note Registrar that such transfer is in compliance with the Securities Act.

TERMS AND ISSUANCE

           Section 2.01 Interest Payable On Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes. During the Initial Interest Period, the Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes shall bear interest at the Initial Interest Rate. Thereafter, except with respect to an Auction Period Adjustment, the Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes shall bear interest at the Applicable Interest Rate for the number of days of the applicable Interest Period, as determined pursuant to this Section 2.01 and Sections 2.02 through 2.03 of this Annex I.

           The Applicable Interest Rate to be borne by the Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes for each Auction Period after the Initial Interest Period until an Auction Period Adjustment, if any, shall be determined as hereafter described. Each such Auction Period with respect to the Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes at all times (i) shall commence on and include the first Business Day following the applicable Series Auction Date, and end on (and include) the applicable Series Auction Date (unless such date is not followed by a Business Day, in which case on the next succeeding day that is followed by a Business Day) and (ii) if the Auction Periods are changed as provided herein, each period commencing on an Interest Payment Date and ending on but excluding the next succeeding Interest Payment Date (unless the duration of the Interest Period is one year or longer, then the Interest Period therefor shall commence on an Interest Payment Date and end on but exclude the final Interest Payment Date for such Interest Period); provided, however, that if an Auction is scheduled to occur for the next Interest Period on a date that was reasonably expected to be a Business Day, but such Auction does not occur because such date is later not considered to be a Business Day, the Auction shall nevertheless be deemed to have occurred, the applicable Auction Rate in effect for the next Interest Period will be the Auction Rate in effect for the preceding Interest Period and such Interest Period will generally be 28 days in duration, beginning on the Business Day following the date of the deemed Auction and ending on (and including) the applicable Series Auction Date (unless such date is not followed by a Business Day, in which case on the next succeeding day that is followed by a Business Day). If the preceding Interest Period was other than generally 28 days in duration, the Auction Rate for the deemed Auction will instead be the rate of interest determined by the Market Agent on equivalently rated auction securities with a comparable length of auction period.

           Notwithstanding the foregoing:

           (a) if the ownership of a series of Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes is no longer maintained in Book-Entry Form then, the Auction Rate on such series for any Interest Period commencing after the delivery of definitive notes representing such series pursuant to Section 8 of the Seventh Supplement shall equal the Maximum Rate on the Business Day immediately preceding the first day of such subsequent Interest Period; or

           (b) if a Payment Default shall have occurred with respect to a series of Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes, the Applicable Interest Rate on such series for the Interest Period commencing on or immediately after such Payment Default, and for each Interest Period thereafter, to and including the Interest Period, if any, during which, or commencing less than two Business Days after, such Payment Default is cured, shall equal the Non-Payment Rate on the first day of each such Interest Period.

           In accordance with Section 2.02(a)(iii)(B) of this Annex I, the Auction Agent shall promptly give written notice to the Trustee and the Issuer of each Auction Rate (unless the Applicable Interest Rate is the Non-Payment Rate or the ownership of such series is no longer maintained in Book-Entry Form except as provided above) applicable to each series of the Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes. The Trustee shall notify the Holders of Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes of the Applicable Interest Rate with respect to each such series for each Auction Period not later than the second Business Day of such Auction Period.

           In the event that the Auction Agent no longer determines, or fails to determine, when required, the Applicable Interest Rate with respect to a series of Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes, or if, for any reason, such manner of determination shall be held to be invalid or unenforceable, the Applicable Interest Rate for the next succeeding Interest Period shall be the Maximum Rate. The Maximum Rate with respect to each Interest Rate Determination Date shall be determined and communicated by the Auction Agent in accordance with Section 2.02(c) of this Annex I and the Auction Agent Agreement. If the Auction Agent shall fail or refuse to determine the Maximum Rate, the Maximum Rate shall be determined by a securities dealer appointed by the Issuer capable of making such a determination in accordance with the provisions hereof and written notice of such determination shall be given by such securities dealer to the Trustee.

           If the Auction Rate for a series of Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes is greater than the Maximum Rate, then the Applicable Interest Rate with respect to such series for the related Interest Period will be the Maximum Rate. The excess of the amount of interest that would have accrued on the Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes at the Auction Rate over the amount of interest actually accrued at the Maximum Rate will accrue as the Carry-Over Amount. Each Carry-Over Amount shall bear interest for each Interest Period calculated at a rate equal to One-Month LIBOR (as determined by the Auction Agent on the related Interest Rate Determination Date, provided the Trustee has received notice of One-Month LIBOR from the Auction Agent, and, if the Trustee shall not have received such notice from the Auction Agent, then as determined by the Trustee on such date) from the Interest Payment Date for the Interest Period with respect to which such Carry-Over Amount was calculated, until paid. Any payment in respect of Carry-Over Amount shall be applied, first, to any accrued interest payable thereon and thereafter in reduction of such Carry-Over Amount. For purposes of the Seventh Supplement, the Indenture and the Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes, any reference to "principal" or "interest" herein and therein shall not include, within the meaning of such words, any Carry-Over Amount or any interest accrued on any Carry-Over Amount. Such Carry-Over Amount shall be separately calculated for each Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Note of such series by the Trustee during such Interest Period in sufficient time for the Trustee to give notice to each Holder of such Carry-Over Amount as required in the next succeeding sentence. On the Interest Payment Date for an Interest Period with respect to which such Carry-Over Amount has been calculated by the Trustee, the Trustee shall give written notice to each Holder of the Carry-Over Amount applicable to such Holder's Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Note, which written notice may accompany the payment of interest (if made by check made to each such Holder on such Interest Payment Date) or otherwise shall be mailed on such Interest Payment Date by first-class mail, postage prepaid, to each such Holder at such Holder's address as it appears on the registration books maintained by the Note Registrar. Such notice shall state, in addition to such Carry-Over Amount, that, unless and until a Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Note has been redeemed under the Indenture (after which all accrued Carry-Over Amount with respect to such Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Note, and all accrued interest thereon, that remains unpaid shall be canceled and no Carry-Over Amount, or interest accrued thereon, shall be paid with respect to such Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Note), (i) the Carry-Over Amount (and interest accrued thereon) shall be paid by the Trustee on the first occurring Interest Payment Date for a subsequent Interest Period if and to the extent that (A) the Eligible Carry-Over Make-Up Amount with respect to such Interest Period is greater than zero, and (B) moneys are available pursuant to the terms of the Indenture to pay such Carry-Over Amount (and interest accrued thereon), and (ii) interest shall accrue on the Carry-Over Amount at a per annum rate equal to One-Month LIBOR until such Carry-Over Amount is paid in full or is canceled.

           The Carry-Over Amount (and interest accrued thereon) on Outstanding Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes of a series shall be paid by the Trustee on the first occurring Interest Payment Date for a subsequent Interest Period with respect to such series if and to the extent that (i) the Eligible Carry-Over Make-Up Amount with respect to such Interest Period is greater than zero, and (ii) moneys in the Collection Fund and the Surplus Fund are available on the Monthly Calculation Date immediately preceding the month in which such Interest Payment Date occurs, for transfer to the Interest Account for such purpose in accordance with Sections 4.05 and 4.06 of the Base Indenture, after taking into account all other amounts payable from the Collection Fund and the Surplus Fund in accordance with such Sections on such Monthly Calculation Date. Any Carry-Over Amount (and any interest accrued thereon) with respect to any Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Note which is unpaid as of the Maturity of such Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Note shall be paid to the Holder thereof on the date of such Maturity to the extent that moneys are available therefor in accordance with the provisions of the preceding clause (ii); provided, however, that any Carry-Over Amount (and any interest accrued thereon) which is not so paid on the date of such Maturity shall be canceled with respect to such Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Note on the date of such Maturity and shall not be paid on any succeeding Interest Payment Date. To the extent that any portion of the Carry-Over Amount (and any interest accrued thereon) remains unpaid after payment of a portion thereof, such unpaid portion shall be paid in whole or in part as required hereunder until fully paid by the Trustee on the next occurring Interest Payment Date(s), as necessary, for the subsequent Interest Period(s), if and to the extent that the conditions in the first sentence of this paragraph are satisfied. On any Interest Payment Date(s) on which the Trustee pays less than all of the Carry-Over Amount (and any interest accrued thereon) with respect to a Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Note, the Trustee shall give written notice in the manner set forth in the immediately preceding paragraph to the Holder of such Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Note of the Carry-Over Amount remaining unpaid on such Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Note.

           The Interest Payment Date on which any Carry-Over Amount (or any interest accrued thereon) for a series of Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes shall be paid shall be determined by the Trustee in accordance with the provisions of the immediately preceding paragraph, and the Trustee shall make payment of the Carry-Over Amount (and any interest accrued thereon) in the same manner as it pays interest on the Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes on an Interest Payment Date.

           Section 2.02 Auction Rate.

             (a) Determining the Applicable Interest Rate. By purchasing Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes, whether in an Auction or otherwise, each purchaser of the Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes, or its Broker-Dealer, must agree and shall be deemed by such purchase to have agreed (i) to participate in Auctions on the terms described herein; (ii) to have its beneficial ownership of the Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes maintained at all times in Book Entry Form for the account of its Participant, which in turn will maintain records of such beneficial ownership; (iii) to authorize such Participant to disclose to the Auction Agent such information with respect to such beneficial ownership as the Auction Agent may request; (iv) that a Sell Order placed by an Existing Holder will constitute an irrevocable offer to sell the principal amount of the Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes specified in such Sell Order; (v) that a Bid placed by an Existing Holder will constitute an irrevocable offer to sell the principal amount, or a lesser principal amount, of the Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes specified in such Bid if the rate specified in such Bid is greater than, or in some cases equal to, the Applicable Interest Rate, determined as described herein; and (vi) that a Bid placed by a Potential Holder will constitute an irrevocable offer to purchase the amount, or a lesser principal amount, of the Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes specified in such Bid if the rate specified in such Bid is, respectively, less than or equal to the Applicable Interest Rate, determined as set forth herein.

          So long as the ownership of a series of Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes is maintained in Book-Entry Form by the Securities Depository, an Existing Holder may sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes of such series only pursuant to a Bid or Sell Order placed in an Auction or otherwise sell, transfer or dispose of Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes through a Broker-Dealer, provided that, in the case of all transfers other than pursuant to Auctions, such Existing Holder, its Broker-Dealer or its Participant advises the Auction Agent in writing of such transfer. Auctions shall be conducted on each Auction Date, if there is an Auction Agent on such Auction Date, in the following manner (such procedures to be applicable separately to the Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes):

             (i) Submission by Existing Holders and Potential Holders to a Broker-Dealer.

             (A) Prior to the Submission Deadline on each Auction Date:

             (1) each Existing Holder of Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes may submit to a Broker-Dealer by telephone or otherwise any information as to:

             (a) the Principal Amount of Outstanding Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes, if any, owned by such Existing Holder which such Existing Holder desires to continue to hold without regard to the Auction Rate for the next succeeding Auction Period;

             (b) the Principal Amount of Outstanding Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes, if any, which such Existing Holder offers to sell if the Auction Rate for the next succeeding Auction Period shall be less than the rate per annum specified by such Existing Holder; and/or

             (c) the Principal Amount of Outstanding Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes, if any, owned by such Existing Holder which such Existing Holder offers to sell without regard to the Auction Rate for the next succeeding Auction Period; and

             (2) one or more Broker-Dealers may contact Potential Holders to determine the Principal Amount of Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes which each Potential Holder offers to purchase, if the Auction Rate for the next succeeding Auction Period shall not be less than the rate per annum specified by such Potential Holder.

             For the purposes hereof, the communication to a Broker-Dealer of information referred to in clause (1) or (2) of this paragraph (A) is herein referred to as an "Order," and each Existing Holder and each Potential Holder placing an Order is herein referred to as a "Bidder"; an Order described in clause (1)(a) is herein referred to as a "Hold Order"; an Order described in clauses (1)(b) and (2) is herein referred to as a "Bid"; and an Order described in clause (1)(a) is herein referred to as a "Sell Order."

             (B) (1) Subject to the provisions of Section 2.02(a)(ii) of this Annex I, a Bid by an Existing Holder shall constitute an irrevocable offer to sell:

             (a) the Principal Amount of Outstanding Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes specified in such Bid if the Auction Rate determined as provided in this Section 2.02 shall be less than the rate specified therein; or

             (b) such Principal Amount, or a lesser Principal Amount of Outstanding Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes to be determined as set forth in Section 2.02(a)(iv)(A)(4) of this Annex I, if the Auction Rate determined as provided in this Section 2.02(a)(i) shall be equal to the rate specified therein; or

             (c) such Principal Amount, or a lesser Principal Amount of Outstanding Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes to be determined as set forth in Section 2.02(a)(iv)(B)(3) of this Annex I, if the rate specified therein shall be higher than the Maximum Rate and Sufficient Bids have not been made.

             (2) Subject to the provisions of Section 2.02(a)(ii) of this Annex I, a Sell Order by an Existing Holder shall constitute an irrevocable offer to sell:

             (a) the Principal Amount of Outstanding Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes specified in such Sell Order; or

             (b) such Principal Amount, or a lesser Principal Amount of Outstanding Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes determined as set forth in Section 2.02(a)(iv)(B)(3) of this Annex I, if Sufficient Bids have not been made.

             (3) Subject to the provisions of Section 2.02(a)(ii) of this Annex I, a Bid by a Potential Holder shall constitute an irrevocable offer to purchase:

             (a) the Principal Amount of Outstanding Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes specified in such Bid if the Auction Rate determined as provided in this Section 2.02 shall be higher than the rate specified in such Bid; or

             (b) such Principal Amount, or a lesser Principal Amount of Outstanding Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes determined as set forth in Section 2.02(a)(iv)(A)(5) of this Annex I, if the Auction Rate determined as provided in this Section 2.02(a)(i) shall be equal to the rate specified in such Bid.

             (ii) Submission by Broker-Dealer to the Auction Agent.

             (A) Each Broker-Dealer shall submit in writing to the Auction Agent prior to the Submission Deadline on each Auction Date all Orders obtained by such Broker-Dealer and shall specify with respect to each such Order:

             (1) the name of the Bidder placing such Order;

             (2) the aggregate Principal Amount of Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes that are the subject of such Order;

             (3) to the extent that such Bidder is an Existing Holder:

             (a) the Principal Amount of Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes, if any, subject to any Hold Order placed by such Existing Holder;

             (b) the Principal Amount of Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes, if any, subject to any Bid placed by such Existing Holder and the rate specified in such Bid; and

             (c) the Principal Amount of Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes, if any, subject to any Sell Order placed by such Existing Holder; and

             (4) to the extent such Bidder is a Potential Holder, the rate specified in such Potential Holder's Bid.

             (B) If any rate specified in any Bid contains more than three figures to the right of the decimal point, the Auction Agent shall round such rate up to the next highest .001%.

             (C) If an Order or Orders covering all Outstanding Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes owned by an Existing Holder is not submitted to the Auction Agent prior to the Submission Deadline, the Auction Agent shall deem a Hold Order to have been submitted on behalf of such Existing Holder covering the Principal Amount of Outstanding Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes owned by such Existing Holder and not subject to an Order submitted to the Auction Agent.

             (D) Neither the Issuer, the Trustee nor the Auction Agent shall be responsible for any failure of a Broker-Dealer to submit an Order to the Auction Agent on behalf of any Existing Holder or Potential Holder.

             (E) If any Existing Holder submits through a Broker-Dealer to the Auction Agent one or more Orders covering in the aggregate more than the Principal Amount of Outstanding Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes owned by such Existing Holder, such Orders shall be considered valid as follows and in the following order of priority:

             (1) All Hold Orders shall be considered valid, but only up to the aggregate Principal Amount of Outstanding Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes held by such Existing Holder, and if the aggregate Principal Amount of Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes subject to such Hold Orders exceeds the aggregate Principal Amount of Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes held by such Existing Holder, the aggregate Principal Amount of Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes subject to each such Hold Order shall be reduced pro rata so that the aggregate Principal Amount of Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes subject to such Hold Order equals the aggregate Principal Amount of Outstanding Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes owned by such Existing Holder.

             (2) (a) any Bid shall be considered valid up to an amount equal to the excess of the Principal Amount of Outstanding Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes owned by such Existing Holder over the aggregate Principal Amount of Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes subject to any Hold Order referred to in clause (1) of this paragraph (E);

             (b) subject to subclause (a) of this clause (2), if more than one Bid with the same rate is submitted on behalf of such Existing Holder and the aggregate Principal Amount of Outstanding Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes subject to such Bids is greater than such excess, such Bids shall be considered valid up to and including an amount equal to such excess, and the stated amount of Outstanding Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes subject to each Bid with the same rate shall be reduced pro rata to cover the stated amount of Outstanding Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes equal to such excess;

             (c) subject to subclauses (a) and (b) of this clause (2), if more than one Bid with different rates are submitted on behalf of such Existing Holder, such Bids shall be considered valid first in the ascending order of their respective rates until the highest rate is reached at which such excess exists and then at such rate up to the amount of such excess; and

             (d) in any such event, the amount of Outstanding Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes, if any, subject to Bids not valid under this clause (B) shall be treated as the subject of a Bid by a Potential Holder at the rate therein specified; and

             (3) All Sell Orders shall be considered valid up to an amount equal to the excess of the Principal Amount of Outstanding Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes held by such Existing Holder over the aggregate Principal Amount of Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes subject to valid Hold Orders referred to in clause (1) of this paragraph (E) and valid Bids referred to in clause (2) of this paragraph (E).

             (F) If more than one Bid for Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes is submitted on behalf of any Potential Holder, each Bid submitted shall be a separate Bid with the rate and Principal Amount therein specified.

             (G) Any Bid or Sell Order submitted by an Existing Holder covering an aggregate Principal Amount of Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes not equal to an Authorized Denomination shall be rejected and shall be deemed a Hold Order. Any Bid submitted by a Potential Holder covering an aggregate Principal Amount of Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes not equal to an Authorized Denomination shall be rejected.

             (H) Any Bid submitted by an Existing Holder or a Potential Holder specifying a rate lower than the All Hold Rate shall be treated as a Bid specifying the All Hold Rate, and any such Bid shall be considered as valid and shall be selected in the ascending order of the respective rates in the Submitted Bids.

             (I) An Existing Holder that offers to purchase additional Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes is, for purposes of such offer, treated as a Potential Holder.

             (J) Any Bid specifying a rate higher than the Maximum Interest Rate will (i) be treated as a Sell Order if submitted by an Existing Holder and (ii) not be accepted if submitted by a Potential Holder.

             (iii) Determination of Sufficient Bids, Auction Rate and Winning Bid Rate.

             (A) Not earlier than the Submission Deadline on each Auction Date, the Auction Agent shall assemble all valid Orders submitted or deemed submitted to it by the Broker-Dealers (each such Order as submitted or deemed submitted by a Broker-Dealer being herein referred to individually as a "Submitted Hold Order," a "Submitted Bid" or a "Submitted Sell Order," as the case may be, or as a "Submitted Order," and collectively as "Submitted Hold Orders," "Submitted Bids" or "Submitted Sell Orders," as the case may be, or as "Submitted Orders") and shall determine:

             (1) the excess of the total Principal Amount of Outstanding Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes over the sum of the aggregate Principal Amount of Outstanding Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes subject to Submitted Hold Orders (such excess being herein referred to as the "Available Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes"), and

             (2) from the Submitted Orders whether:

             (a) the aggregate Principal Amount of Outstanding Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes subject to Submitted Bids by Potential Holders specifying one or more rates equal to or lower than the Maximum Interest Rate exceeds or is equal to the sum of:

             (b) the aggregate Principal Amount of Outstanding Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes subject to Submitted Bids by Existing Holders specifying one or more rates higher than the Maximum Interest Rate, and

             (c) the aggregate Principal Amount of Outstanding Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes subject to Submitted Sell Orders;

  (in the event such excess or such equality exists, other than because all of the Outstanding Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes are subject to Submitted Hold Orders, such Submitted Bids described in subclause (a) above shall be referred to collectively as "Sufficient Bids"); and

             (3) if Sufficient Bids exist, the Winning Bid Rate, which shall be the lowest rate specified in such Submitted Bids such that if:

             (y) each such Submitted Bid from Existing Holders specifying such lowest rate and (z) all other Submitted Bids from Existing Holders specifying lower rates were rejected (thus entitling such Existing Holders to continue to own the Principal Amount of Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes subject to such Submitted Bids); and

             (y) each such Submitted Bid from Potential Holders specifying such lowest rate and (z) all other Submitted Bids from Potential Holders specifying lower rates were accepted;

  the result would be that such Existing Holders described in subclause (a) above would continue to own an aggregate Principal Amount of Outstanding Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes which, when added to the aggregate Principal Amount of Outstanding Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes to be purchased by such Potential Holders described in subclause (b) above, would equal not less than the Available Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes.

             (B) Promptly after the Auction Agent has made the determinations pursuant to Section 2.02(a)(iii)(A) hereof, the Auction Agent shall advise the Trustee, the Broker-Dealers and the Issuer of the Maximum Auction Rate, the Maximum Interest Rate, the All Hold Rate, One-Month LIBOR and the Applicable LIBOR-Based Rate and the components thereof on the Auction Date and, based on such determinations, the Auction Rate for the next succeeding Interest Period as follows:

             (1) if Sufficient Bids exist, that the Auction Rate for the next succeeding Interest Period shall be equal to the Winning Bid Rate so determined;

             (2) if Sufficient Bids do not exist (other than because all of the Outstanding Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes are subject to Submitted Hold Orders), that the Auction Rate for the next succeeding Interest Period shall be equal to the Maximum Rate; or

             (3) if all Outstanding Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes are subject to Submitted Hold Orders, that the Auction Rate for the next succeeding Interest Period shall be equal to the All Hold Rate.

             (C) Promptly after the Auction Agent has determined the Auction Rate, the Auction Agent will determine and advise the Trustee of the Applicable Interest Rate, which shall not exceed the Maximum Rate.

             If for any Interest Period the Auction Rate exceeds the Maximum Rate, the Applicable Interest Rate for such Interest Period shall equal the Maximum Rate. If the Maximum Auction Rate is less than the Auction Rate, the Applicable Interest Rate will be the Maximum Auction Rate. If the Auction Agent has not received Sufficient Bids (other than because all of the Outstanding Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes are subject to Submitted Hold Orders), the Applicable Interest Rate will be the Maximum Rate. In any of the cases described above, Submitted Orders will be accepted or rejected and the Auction Agent will take such other action as described below in subparagraph (B) of Section 2.02(a)(iv) hereof.

             (iv) Acceptance and Rejection of Submitted Bids and Submitted Sell Orders. Existing Holders shall continue to own the Principal Amount of Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes that are subject to Submitted Hold Orders, and, based on the determinations made pursuant to Section 2.02(a)(iii)(A) hereof, Submitted Bids and Submitted Sell Orders shall be accepted or rejected, and the Auction Agent shall take such other action as described below:

             (A) if Sufficient Bids have been made, all Submitted Sell Orders shall be accepted and, subject to the provisions of paragraphs (D) and (E) of this Section 2.02(a)(iv), Submitted Bids shall be accepted or rejected as follows in the following order of priority, and all other Submitted Bids shall be rejected:

             (1) Existing Holders' Submitted Bids specifying any rate that is higher than the Winning Bid Rate shall be accepted, thus requiring each such Existing Holder to sell the aggregate Principal Amount of Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes subject to such Submitted Bids;

             (2) Existing Holders' Submitted Bids specifying any rate that is lower than the Winning Bid Rate shall be rejected, thus entitling each such Existing Holder to continue to own the aggregate Principal Amount of Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes subject to such Submitted Bids;

             (3) Potential Holders' Submitted Bids specifying any rate that is lower than the Winning Bid Rate shall be accepted, thus requiring such Potential Owner to purchase the aggregate Principal Amount of Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes subject to such Submitted Bid;

             (4) Each Existing Holders' Submitted Bid specifying a rate that is equal to the Winning Bid Rate shall be rejected, thus entitling such Existing Holder to continue to own the aggregate Principal Amount of Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes subject to such Submitted Bid, unless the aggregate Principal Amount of Outstanding Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes subject to all such Submitted Bids shall be greater than the Principal Amount of Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes (the "Remaining Principal Amount") equal to the excess of the Available Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes over the aggregate Principal Amount of Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes subject to Submitted Bids described in clauses (2) and (3) of this Section 2.02(a)(iv)(A), in which event such Submitted Bid of such Existing Holder shall be rejected in part, and such Existing Holder shall be entitled to continue to own the Principal Amount of Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes subject to such Submitted Bid, but only in an amount equal to the aggregate Principal Amount of Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes obtained by multiplying the Remaining Principal Amount by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the Principal Amount of Outstanding Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes owned by such Existing Holder subject to such Submitted Bid and the denominator of which shall be the sum of the Principal Amount of Outstanding Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes subject to such Submitted Bids made by all such Existing Holders that specified a rate equal to the Winning Bid Rate; and

             (5) Each Potential Holder's Submitted Bid specifying a rate that is equal to the Winning Bid Rate shall be accepted, but only in an amount equal to the Principal Amount of Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes obtained by multiplying the excess of the aggregate Principal Amount of Available Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes over the aggregate Principal Amount of Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes subject to Submitted Bids described in clauses (2), (3) and (4) of this Section 2.02(a)(iv)(A) by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the aggregate Principal Amount of Outstanding Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes subject to such Submitted Bid and the denominator of which shall be the sum of the Principal Amount of Outstanding Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes subject to Submitted Bids made by all such Potential Holders that specified a rate equal to the Winning Bid Rate.

             (B) If Sufficient Bids have not been made (other than because all of the Outstanding Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes are subject to Submitted Hold Orders), subject to the provisions of Section 2.02(iv)(D) hereof, Submitted Orders shall be accepted or rejected as follows in the following order of priority and all other Submitted Bids shall be rejected:

             (1) Existing Holders' Submitted Bids specifying any rate that is equal to or lower than the Maximum Rate shall be rejected, thus entitling such Existing Holders to continue to own the aggregate Principal Amount of Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes subject to such Submitted Bids;

             (2) Potential Holders' Submitted Bids specifying any rate that is equal to or lower than the Maximum Rate shall be accepted, thus requiring each Potential Holder to purchase the aggregate Principal Amount of Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes subject to such Submitted Bids; and

             (3) each Existing Holder's Submitted Bid specifying any rate that is higher than the Maximum Rate and each Existing Holder's Submitted Sell Order shall be accepted, thus entitling each Existing Holder that submitted any such Submitted Bid or Submitted Sell Order to sell the Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes subject to such Submitted Bid or Submitted Sell Order, but in both cases only in an amount equal to the aggregate Principal Amount of Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes obtained by multiplying the aggregate Principal Amount of Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes subject to Submitted Bids described in clause (2) of this Section 2.02(iv)(B) by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the aggregate Principal Amount of Outstanding Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes owned by such Existing Holder subject to such Submitted Bid or Submitted Sell Order and the denominator of which shall be the aggregate Principal Amount of Outstanding Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes subject to all such Submitted Bids and Submitted Sell Orders.

             (C) If all Outstanding Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes are subject to Submitted Hold Orders, all Submitted Bids shall be rejected.

             (D) If, as a result of the procedures described in paragraph (A) or (B) of this Section 2.02(iv), any Existing Holder would be entitled or required to sell, or any Potential Holder would be entitled or required to purchase, a Principal Amount of Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes that is not equal to an Authorized Denomination, the Auction Agent shall, in such manner as in its sole discretion it shall determine, round up or down the Principal Amount of Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes to be purchased or sold by any Existing Holder or Potential Holder so that the Principal Amount of Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes purchased or sold by each Existing Holder or Potential Holder shall be equal to an Authorized Denomination.

             (E) If, as a result of the procedures described in paragraph (A) of this Section 2.02(iv), any Potential Holder would be entitled or required to purchase less than an Authorized Denomination of Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes, the Auction Agent shall, in such manner as in its sole discretion it shall determine, allocate Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes for purchase among Potential Holders so that only Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes in Authorized Denominations are purchased by any Potential Holder, even if such allocation results in one or more of such Potential Holders not purchasing any Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes.

             (v) Based on the result of each Auction, the Auction Agent shall determine the aggregate Principal Amount of Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes to be purchased and the aggregate Principal Amount of Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes to be sold by Potential Holders and Existing Holders on whose behalf each Broker-Dealer submitted Bids or Sell Orders and, with respect to each Broker-Dealer, to the extent that such aggregate Principal Amount of Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes to be sold differs from such aggregate Principal Amount of Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes to be purchased, determine to which other Broker-Dealer or Broker-Dealers acting for one or more purchasers such Broker-Dealer shall deliver, or from which other Broker-Dealer or Broker-Dealers acting for one or more sellers such Broker-Dealer shall receive, as the case may be, Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes.

             (vi) Any calculation by the Auction Agent, the Issuer or the Trustee, as applicable, of the Applicable Interest Rate, the Applicable LIBOR-Based Rate, the Maximum Auction Rate, the Maximum Interest Rate, the All Hold Rate and the Non-Payment Rate shall, in the absence of manifest error, be binding on all other parties.

             (vii) Notwithstanding anything in the Seventh Supplement to the contrary notwithstanding, no Auction will be held on any Auction Date hereunder during the continuance of a Payment Default (or on the next Business Day after a Payment Default is cured) or if the Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes are no longer in Book-Entry-Form.

             The Issuer shall not, and shall not cause (or, to the extent within its control, permit) any affiliate to, submit any Order (other than a Sell Order) in any Auction.

             (b) Determination of Payment Defaults and Payment of Auction Agent and Broker-Dealer Fees.

             (i) The Trustee shall determine, not later than 2:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Business Day next preceding each Interest Payment Date, whether a Payment Default has occurred. If a Payment Default has occurred, the Trustee shall, not later than 2:15 p.m., New York City time, on such Business Day, send a notice thereof in substantially the form of Exhibit C attached hereto to the Auction Agent by telecopy or similar means and, if such Payment Default is cured, the Trustee shall immediately send a notice in substantially the form of Exhibit D attached hereto to the Auction Agent by telecopy or similar means.

             (ii) Not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, on each Interest Payment Date, the Issuer shall pay or cause to be paid to the Auction Agent, in immediately available funds out of amounts available therefor in the Administration Fund, an amount equal to the Auction Agent Fee and the Broker-Dealer Fee as calculated in accordance with the Auction Agent Agreement. The Issuer shall, from time to time at the request of the Auction Agent, reimburse the Auction Agent for its reasonable expenses as provided in the Auction Agent Agreement, such expenses to be paid out of amounts available therefor in the Administration Fund

             (c) Calculation of Various Rates. The Auction Agent shall calculate the Maximum Auction Rate, the All Hold Rate and the Applicable LIBOR-Based Rate on each Auction Date and shall notify the Issuer, Trustee and the Broker-Dealers of the Maximum Auction Rate, the Maximum Interest Rate, the All Hold Rate and the Applicable LIBOR-Based Rate, all as provided in the Auction Agent Agreement. If the ownership of the Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes is no longer maintained in Book-Entry Form by the Securities Depository, the Trustee shall calculate the Maximum Rate on the Business Day immediately preceding the first day of each Interest Period after the delivery of definitive Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes pursuant to Section 8 of the Seventh Supplement. If a Payment Default shall have occurred, the Trustee shall calculate the Non-Payment Rate on the Interest Rate Determination Date for (i) each Interest Period commencing after the occurrence and during the continuance of such Payment Default and (ii) any Interest Period commencing less than two Business Days after the cure of any Payment Default. The Auction Agent shall determine the Applicable LIBOR-Based Rate for each Interest Period other than the Initial Interest Period; provided that if the ownership of the Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes is no longer maintained in Book-Entry Form, or if a Payment Default has occurred, then the Trustee shall determine the Applicable LIBOR-Based Rate for each such Interest Period.

             For any Interest Period for which any Carry-Over Amount exists, the Auction Agent shall calculate One-Month LIBOR.

             The Issuer shall determine on each Auction Date whether the Net Loan Rate Restriction Period is applicable for the next Auction Period and, if it is, the Issuer shall notify the Trustee, the Auction Agent and the Broker-Dealers of such event. If the Net Loan Rate Restriction Period is applicable for an Auction Period, the Issuer shall calculate the Net Loan Rate, the Adjusted Student Loan Portfolio Rate of Return and the Program Expense Percentage and shall notify the Trustee, the Auction Agent and the Broker-Dealers of such calculations.

             (d) Notification of Rates, Amounts and Payment Dates.

The Trustee and the Issuer will, and the Trustee is hereby directed to, enter into the Initial Auction Agent Agreement with Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as the Initial Auction Agent. Any Substitute Auction Agent shall be (i) a bank, national banking association or trust company duly organized under the laws of the United States of America or any state or territory thereof having its principal place of business in the Borough of Manhattan, New York, or such other location as approved by the Trustee in writing and having a combined capital stock or surplus of at least $50,000,000, or (ii) a member of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc., having a capitalization of at least $50,000,000, and, in either case, authorized by law to perform all the duties imposed upon it hereunder and under the Auction Agent Agreement.

The Auction Agent may be removed at any time by the Trustee upon the written direction of an Authorized Officer of the Issuer or the Holders of 66-2/3% of the aggregate Principal Amount of the Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes then Outstanding, and if by such Holders, by an instrument signed by such Holders or their attorneys and filed with the Auction Agent, the Issuer and the Trustee upon at least 90 days' notice. Neither resignation nor removal of the Auction Agent pursuant to the preceding two sentences shall be effective unless and until a Substitute Auction Agent has been appointed and has accepted such appointment. However, if a Substitute Auction Agent shall not have been appointed within 60 days from the date of a notice of resignation, the resigning Auction Agent may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a Substitute Auction Agent. If required by the Issuer, a Substitute Auction Agent Agreement shall be entered into with a Substitute Auction Agent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Auction Agent may terminate the Auction Agent Agreement if, within 25 days after notifying the Trustee, each Market Agent and the Issuer in writing that it has not received payment of any Auction Agent Fee due it in accordance with the terms of the Auction Agent Agreement, the Auction Agent does not receive such payment.

             (ii) If the Auction Agent shall resign or be removed or be dissolved, or if the property or affairs of the Auction Agent shall be taken under the control of any state or federal court or administrative body because of bankruptcy or insolvency, or for any other reason, the Trustee at the direction of an Authorized Officer of the Issuer, shall use its best efforts to appoint a Substitute Auction Agent.

             (iii) The Auction Agent is acting as agent for the Issuer in connection with Auctions. In the absence of bad faith, negligent failure to act or negligence on its part, the Auction Agent shall not be liable for any action taken, suffered or omitted or any error of judgment made by it in the performance of its duties under the Auction Agent Agreement and shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith unless the Auction Agent shall have been negligent in ascertaining (or failing to ascertain) the pertinent facts.

             (iv) In the event of a change in the Auction Agent Fee Rate pursuant to Section 3.04(a) of the Auction Agent Agreement, the Auction Agent shall give notice thereof to the Trustee in accordance with the Auction Agent Agreement.

             (f) Broker-Dealers.

             (i) The Auction Agent will enter into a Broker-Dealer Agreement with Goldman, Sachs & Co., as the initial Broker-Dealer.

             (ii) Any Broker-Dealer may be removed at any time, at the request of an Authorized Officer of the Issuer, but there shall, at all times, be at least one Broker-Dealer appointed and acting as such with respect to the Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes.

             (g) Changes in Auction Period or Periods.

             (i) While any of the Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes are Outstanding, the Issuer may, from time to time, convert the length of one or more Auction Periods and designate an Auction Period of a different length than set forth in the definition of Interest Period (an "Auction Period Adjustment"), in order to conform with then current market practice with respect to similar securities or to accommodate economic and financial factors that may affect or be relevant to the length of the Auction Period and the Applicable Interest Rate borne by the Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes. The Issuer shall not initiate an Auction Period Adjustment unless it shall have received, not less than 10 days nor more than 20 days prior to the Auction Period Adjustment, the written consent of the applicable Market Agent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. The Issuer shall initiate the Auction Period Adjustment by giving written notice by Issuer Order to the Trustee, the Auction Agent, the applicable Market Agent and the Securities Depository in substantially the form of, or containing substantially the information contained in, Exhibit E to the Seventh Supplement at least ten days prior to the Auction Date for such Auction Period.

             (ii) An Auction Period Adjustment shall take effect only (A) if the Trustee and the Auction Agent receive, by 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the Business Day before the Auction Date for the first such Auction Period, an Issuer Certificate in substantially the form attached as, or containing substantially the same information contained in, Exhibit F to the Seventh Supplement, authorizing the Auction Period Adjustment specified in such certificate along with written confirmation that the Rating Agency Condition has been satisfied with respect to such Auction Period Adjustment, and (B) Sufficient Bids exist as of the Auction on the Auction Date for such first Auction Period. If the condition referred to in (A) above is not met, the Applicable Interest Rate for the next Auction Period shall be determined pursuant to the provisions of subsections (a) through (d) of this Section and the Auction Period shall be the Auction Period determined without reference to the proposed change. If the condition referred to in (A) above is met but the condition referred to in (B) above is not met, the Applicable Interest Rate for the next Auction Period shall be the Maximum Rate, and in either case the Auction Period shall be the Auction Period determined without reference to the proposed change.

             (iii) In connection with any Auction Period Adjustment, the Auction Agent shall provide such further notice to such parties as is specified in Section 2.06(a) of the Auction Agent Agreement.

           (h) Changes in the Auction Date. The applicable Market Agent, with the written consent of an Authorized Officer of the Issuer, may specify an earlier Auction Date (but in no event more than five Business Days earlier) than the Auction Date that would otherwise be determined in accordance with the definition of "Auction Date" in Article I of this Annex I with respect to one or more specified Auction Periods for the Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes, designate a Series Auction Date different than as set forth in the definition of Interest Period in order to conform with then current market practice with respect to similar securities or to accommodate economic and financial factors that may affect or be relevant to the day of the week constituting an Auction Date and the Applicable Interest Rate borne by the Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes. The applicable Market Agent shall deliver a written request for consent to such change in the Auction Date to the Issuer not less than three days nor more than twenty days prior to the effective date of such change. The applicable Market Agent shall provide notice of its determination to specify an earlier Auction Date for one or more Auction Periods by means of a written notice delivered at least three days prior to the proposed changed Auction Date to the Trustee, the Auction Agent, the Issuer and the Securities Depository. Such notice shall be substantially in the form of, or contain substantially the information contained in, Exhibit G to the Seventh Supplement.

           In connection with any change described in this Section 2.02(g), the Auction Agent shall provide such further notice to such parties as is specified in Section 2.06(b) of the Auction Agent Agreement.

           Section 2.03 Additional Provisions Regarding the Applicable Interest Rate. The determination of each Applicable Interest Rate by the Auction Agent or any other Person pursuant to the provisions of this Annex I shall be conclusive and binding on the Holders of the Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes, and the Issuer and the Trustee may rely thereon for all purposes.

           In no event shall the cumulative amount of interest paid or payable on the Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes (including interest calculated as provided herein, plus any other amounts that constitute interest on the Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes of such series under applicable law, which are contracted for, charged, reserved, taken or received pursuant to the Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes of such series or related documents) calculated from the Closing Date of such series through any subsequent day during the term of such series or otherwise prior to payment in full of the Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes of such series exceed the amount permitted by applicable law. If the applicable law is ever judicially interpreted so as to render usurious any amount called for under the Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes of such series, or related documents or otherwise contracted for, charged, reserved, taken or received in connection with the Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes of such series, or if the redemption or acceleration of the maturity of the Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes of such series results in payment to or receipt by the Holder or any former Holder of the Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes of such series of any interest in excess of that permitted by applicable law, then, notwithstanding any provision of the Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes of such series or related documents to the contrary, all excess amounts theretofore paid or received with respect to the Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes of such series shall be credited on the Principal Amount of the Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes of such series (or, if the Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes of such series have been paid or would thereby be paid in full, refunded by the recipient thereof), and the provisions of the Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes of such series and related documents shall automatically and immediately be deemed reformed and the amounts thereafter collectible hereunder and thereunder reduced, without the necessity of the execution of any new document, so as to comply with the applicable law, but so as to permit the recovery of the fullest amount otherwise called for under the Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes of such series and under the related documents.

           Section 2.04 Qualifications of Market Agent. Each Market Agent shall be a member of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc., have a capitalization of at least $50,000,000 and be authorized by law to perform all the duties imposed upon it by the Seventh Supplement, including this Annex I. Any Market Agent may resign and be discharged of the duties and obligations created by the Seventh Supplement, including this Annex I, by giving at least 90 days' notice to the Issuer and the Trustee, provided that such resignation shall not be effective until the appointment of a successor market agent by the Issuer and the acceptance of such appointment by such successor market agent. Any Market Agent may be replaced at the direction of the Issuer, by an instrument signed by an Authorized Officer of the Issuer filed with such Market Agent and the Trustee at least thirty days before the effective date of such replacement, provided that such replacement shall not be effective until the appointment of a successor market agent by the Issuer and the acceptance of such appointment by such successor market agent.

           In the event that any Market Agent shall be removed or be dissolved, or if the property or affairs of any Market Agent shall be taken under the control of any state or federal court or administrative body because of bankruptcy or insolvency, or for any other reason, and there is no Market Agent for the Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes, and the Issuer shall not have appointed its successor as Market Agent, the Trustee, notwithstanding the provisions of the first paragraph of this Section 2.04, shall be deemed to be the Market Agent for the Series 2006-1 Auction Rate Notes for all purposes of the Seventh Supplement, including this Annex I, until the appointment by the Issuer of the successor Market Agent. Nothing in this Section 2.04 shall be construed as conferring on the Trustee additional duties other than as set forth herein.

Federal Reserve Board Release H.15. . . .Mondays Approximately 3:45 p.m.," under the column for: (a) if the Designated CMT Moneyline Telerate Page is 7051, the rate on that Interest Rate Determination Date; or (b) if the Designated CMT Moneyline Telerate Page is 7052, the average for the week, the month or the quarter, as specified on the Remarketing Terms Determination Date, ended immediately before the week in which the related Interest Rate Determination Date occurs. The following procedures will apply if the CMT Rate cannot be determined as described above: (i) if the rate described above is not displayed on the relevant page by 3:00 p.m., New York City time on that Interest Rate Determination Date, unless the calculation is made earlier and the rate is available from that source at that time on that Interest Rate Determination Date, then the CMT Rate will be the Treasury constant maturity rate having the designated index maturity, as published in H.15(519) or another recognized electronic source for displaying the rate; (ii) if the applicable rate described above is not published in H.15(519) or another recognized electronic source for displaying such rate by 3:00 p.m., New York City time on that Interest Rate Determination Date, unless the calculation is made earlier and the rate is available from one of those sources at that time, then the CMT Rate will be the Treasury constant maturity rate, or other United States Treasury rate, for the index maturity and with reference to the relevant Interest Rate Determination Date, that is published by either the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System or the United States Department of the Treasury and that the Indenture Trustee determines to be comparable to the rate formerly displayed on the Designated CMT Moneyline Telerate Page shown above and published in H.15(519); (iii) if the rate described in the prior paragraph cannot be determined, then the Indenture Trustee will determine the CMT Rate to be a yield to maturity based on the average of the secondary market closing offered rates as of approximately 3:30 p.m., New York City time, on the relevant Interest Rate Determination Date reported, according to their written records, by leading primary United States government securities dealers in New York City. The Indenture Trustee will select five such securities dealers and will eliminate the highest and lowest quotations or, in the event of equality, one of the highest and lowest quotations, for the most recently issued direct noncallable fixed rate obligations of the United States Treasury ("Treasury Notes") with an original maturity of approximately the designated index maturity and a remaining term to maturity of not less than the designated index maturity minus one year in a representative amount; (iv) if the Indenture Trustee cannot obtain three Treasury Note quotations of the kind described in clause (iii) above, the Indenture Trustee will determine the CMT Rate to be the yield to maturity based on the average of the secondary market bid rates for Treasury Notes with an original maturity longer than the designated CMT index maturity which have a remaining term to maturity closest to the designated CMT index maturity and in a representative amount, as of approximately 3:30 p.m., New York City time, on the relevant Interest Rate Determination Date of leading primary United States government securities dealers in New York City. In selecting these offered rates, the Indenture Trustee will request quotations from at least five such securities dealers and will disregard the highest quotation (or if there is equality, one of the highest) and the lowest quotation (or if there is equality, one of the lowest). If two Treasury Notes with an original maturity longer than the designated CMT index maturity have remaining terms to maturity that are equally close to the designated CMT index maturity, the Indenture Trustee will obtain quotations for the Treasury Note with the shorter remaining term to maturity; (v) if three or four but not five leading primary United States government securities dealers are quoting as described in the prior paragraph, then the CMT Rate for the relevant Interest Rate Determination Date will be based on the average of the bid rates obtained and neither the highest nor the lowest of those quotations will be eliminated; or (vi) if fewer than three leading primary United States government securities dealers selected by the Indenture Trustee are quoting as described in clause (v) above, the CMT Rate will remain the CMT Rate then in effect on that Interest Rate Determination Date.

If the rate described above is not published in H.15(519) by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on that Interest Rate Determination Date, unless the calculation is made earlier and the rate was available from that source at that time, then the Commercial Paper Rate will be the Bond Equivalent Yield of the rate on the relevant Interest Rate Determination Date, for commercial paper having the index maturity specified on the Remarketing Terms Determination Date, as published in H.15 Daily Update or any other recognized electronic source used for displaying that rate under the heading "Commercial Paper—Financial."

          (b)    At any time a Failed Remarketing is declared on a series of the Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes when denominated in U.S. Dollars, (i) all such Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes will be deemed to have been retained by the applicable Noteholders on the related Reset Date, regardless of any deemed mandatory or voluntary tenders made to Remarketing Agents; (ii) the Failed Remarketing Rate for such Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes will apply for the related Reset Period; and (iii) a Reset Period of three months will be established for such Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes.

          (c)    At any time a Failed Remarketing is declared on a series of the Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes when in a Foreign Exchange Mode, (i) all such Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes will be deemed to have been retained by the applicable Noteholders on the related Reset Date, regardless of any deemed mandatory tenders made to Remarketing Agents, (ii) such Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes will remain denominated in such foreign currency, (iii) each related Currency Swap Counterparty will be entitled to receive quarterly payments from the Issuer at the Extension Rate, (iv) the Issuer will be entitled to receive from each Currency Swap Counterparty, for payment to the applicable Noteholders, quarterly index rate payments at the Failed Remarketing Rate and (v) a Reset Period of three months will be established for such Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes. In addition, if such Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes are in a Foreign Exchange Mode at the time a Failed Remarketing is declared, the provisions of Sections 2.09(a)(i) and (ii) shall also apply.

          (d)    If there is a Failed Remarketing of a series of the Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes, Noteholders of such Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes shall not be entitled to exercise any remedies as a result of the failure of such Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes to be remarketed on the related Reset Date.

           Section 2.06.  Call Option.

          (a)    With respect to each Reset Date and any date following a Failed Remarketing for such series of the Rest Rate Notes and the continuation thereof, College Loan Corporation is hereby granted a Call Option for the purchase of not less than 100% of a series of Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes, exercisable at a price equal to 100% of the Outstanding Principal Amount of such series of Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes, less all amounts distributed to the Noteholders of such series of Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes as a payment of principal on the related Quarterly Distribution Date, plus any accrued and unpaid interest not paid by the Issuer on the applicable Reset Date.

          (b)    College Loan Corporation may transfer ownership of the Call Option at any time to any College Loan Eligible Purchaser.

          (c)    A Call Option may be exercised with respect to a series of Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes at any time on or prior to the determination of the related Spread, auction rate or fixed rate or the declaration of a Failed Remarketing, as applicable, on the related Spread Determination Date by delivery of a Call Option Notice; provided that such Call Option Notice may not be delivered before the day following the last Quarterly Distribution Date immediately preceding the next applicable Reset Date. Once written notice of the exercise of a Call Option is given, such exercise may not be rescinded.

          (d)    All amounts due and owing to the Noteholders of such series of Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes shall be remitted on or before the related Reset Date by the holder of the related Call Option in accordance with the standard procedures established by the Clearing Agencies for transfer of securities to ensure timely payment of principal to the Noteholders of the such series on the related Reset Date.

          (e)    In the event that a Call Option is exercised with respect to a series of Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes then in a Foreign Exchange Mode, the holder of such Call Option shall deliver the U.S. Dollar Equivalent Principal Amount remaining after all payments of principal are made with respect to the related Quarterly Distribution Date, and interest (if applicable) owing to the Noteholders of such series of Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes to the Remarketing Agents for delivery to the Swap Counterparties to the related Currency Swap Agreements, who shall exchange such amount into the applicable currency for delivery to the Trustee or its agent for delivery to the Noteholders of such series of Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes; provided, however, that if there are no such Currency Swap Agreements then in effect, the holder of such Call Option shall remit all amounts due and owing to the Remarketing Agents for delivery to the Trustee or its agent for delivery to the Noteholders of such series in the applicable currency on or before the Reset Date in accordance with the standard procedures established by the related Clearing Agencies for transfer of securities to ensure timely payment of principal to the Noteholders of such series on the related Reset Date.

          (f)    If a Call Option is exercised with respect to a series of Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes, (i) the interest rate on such series will be the Call Rate, (ii) such series will be denominated in U.S. Dollars and (iii) a Reset Period of three months will be established. At the end of such three month Reset Period, the holder of the related Call Option may either remarket such series of Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes pursuant to the remarketing procedures set forth in this Annex II and in the Remarketing Agreement, or retain such series for one or more successive three-month Reset Periods at the then-current Call Rate. In the event the holder of the related Call Option chooses to remarket such series of Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes, such holder shall be solely responsible for all costs and expenses relating to the preparation of any new offering document and any other related costs and expenses associated with such remarketing, other than the fees of the Remarketing Agents, as more fully set forth in Section 3 of the Remarketing Agreement.

           Section 2.07.   Hold Notice. If a series of Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes are denominated in U.S. Dollars during both the then-current Reset Period and the immediately following Reset Period, the Noteholders of such series of Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes will have the option to deliver a Hold Notice to any Remarketing Agent setting forth their desire to hold their Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes for the next Reset Period at a rate of interest not less than the All Hold Rate and on the terms set forth in the related Remarketing Terms Notice, at any time on or after the Remarketing Terms Determination Date until the Notice Date. Such Hold Notice may be delivered as an oral statement to a Remarketing Agent, if subsequently confirmed in writing within 24 hours, which confirmation may be in the form of an e-mail if timely received by the Remarketing Agent. If a Noteholder of a series of Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes does not timely deliver a Hold Notice to a Remarketing Agent (such Hold Notice not to be considered delivered until actually received by such Remarketing Agent), such Noteholder will be deemed to have tendered for remarketing 100% of the Outstanding Amount of its Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes. Any duly delivered Hold Notice will be irrevocable, but will be subject to a mandatory tender of such series of Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes pursuant to any exercise of the related Call Option. All of such series of Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes, whether tendered or not, will bear interest during any related Reset Period on the same terms.

          Section 2.08.   Spread Determination Date.

          (a)    On each Spread Determination Date, unless a Failed Remarketing has been declared or the holder of the related Call Option has delivered the related Call Option Notice or the related Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes are to be redeemed pursuant to Section 2.13 of this Annex II, the Issuer Administrator, the Issuer and the Remarketing Agents will enter into a Supplemental Remarketing Agency Agreement.

          (b)    If pursuant to the Remarketing Terms Notice, the Remarketing Agents, in consultation with the Issuer Administrator, have determined that the Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes are to be reset to bear a fixed rate of interest, then the applicable fixed rate of interest for the corresponding Reset Period will be determined on the Spread Determination Date by adding (i) the applicable spread as determined by the Remarketing Agents on the Spread Determination Date; and (ii) the yield to maturity on the Spread Determination Date of the applicable fixed rate pricing benchmark, selected by the Remarketing Agents, as having an expected weighted average life based on a scheduled maturity at the next Reset Date, which would be used in accordance with customary financial practice in pricing new issues of asset-backed securities of comparable average life; provided that such fixed rate of interest will in no event be lower than the related All Hold Rate, if applicable. The Remarketing Agents shall determine the applicable fixed rate of interest for the Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes (by reference to the applicable fixed rate pricing benchmark plus or minus the spread determined on the Remarketing Terms Determination Date) on each Spread Determination Date irrespective of whether no remarketing will occur as the result of the application of the All Hold Rate. In addition, on the related Spread Determination Date, the Remarketing Agents, in consultation with the Issuer Administrator, shall determine the Supplemental Interest Deposit Amount, if any, for the Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes.

          (c)    If pursuant to the Remarketing Terms Notice, the Remarketing Agents, in consultation with the Issuer Administrator, have determined that the Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes are to be reset to bear a floating rate of interest, then, on the related Spread Determination Date, the Remarketing Agents will establish the applicable Spread to be added or subtracted from the applicable Index; provided that such floating rate of interest will in no event be lower than the related All Hold Rate, if applicable. In addition, on the related Spread Determination Date, the Remarketing Agents, in consultation with the Issuer Administrator, shall determine the Supplemental Interest Deposit Amount, if any, for the Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes.

          (d)    If required pursuant to Section 2.01(c) of this Annex II, on the related Reset Date the Issuer shall enter into either (i) one or more Currency Swap Agreements, if the Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes are to be reset into a Foreign Exchange Mode, or (ii) one or more Swap Agreements if the Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes are to be reset in U.S. Dollars and to bear interest at a fixed rate or at a floating rate other than one based on LIBOR or a Commercial Paper Rate, with an Eligible Counterparty.

          (e)    On or immediately following the Spread Determination Date, the Remarketing Agents will communicate in writing (including facsimile or other electronic transmission if in accordance with each Clearing Agency's standard procedures) the contents of the Spread Determination Notice to each Clearing Agency or the Noteholders of the related Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes if Definitive Notes have been issued, as applicable, with instructions to distribute such notices to its related participants, or to the Noteholders of the related Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes, as applicable, the Trustee and the Rating Agencies. The Spread Determination Date Notice will contain: (i) the determined Spread, indices and auction rate or fixed rate of interest, as the case may be, or, if applicable, a statement that the All Hold Rate or the Failed Remarketing Rate will be in effect for the immediately following Reset Period, (ii) any applicable currency exchange rate, (iii) the identity of any selected Swap Counterparty or Counterparties, if applicable, (iv) if applicable, the floating rate (or rates) of interest to be due to each selected Swap Counterparty with respect to each Quarterly Distribution Date during the immediately following Reset Period and (v) any other information that the Issuer Administrator or the Remarketing Agents deem applicable. Furthermore, if the series of Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes is to be reset into a Foreign Exchange Mode, the currency exchange rate, the Extension Rate due to each related Currency Swap Counterparty and the Failed Remarketing Rate applicable to such Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes for the immediately following Reset Period will be determined pursuant to the terms of the related Currency Swap Agreement and contained in the Spread Determination Notice. In addition, if required for the immediately following Reset Period, on or before the related Spread Determination Date the Issuer Administrator will arrange for new or additional securities identification codes to be obtained as required. Furthermore, the Issuer Administrator, on behalf of the Issuer, will prepare the final Remarketing Memorandum, dated the Spread Determination Date, setting forth the terms of the series of Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes for the upcoming Reset Period.

          Section 2.09.   Currency Swap Agreements and Interest Rate Exchange Agreements.

          (a)    If a series of the Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes is to be reset into a Foreign Exchange Mode, on the related Reset Date, the Issuer will enter into or will instruct the Trustee to enter into (not in its individual capacity, but solely as Trustee) one or more Currency Swap Agreements for the related Reset Period.

          (i)    Each Currency Swap Counterparty which is party to a related Currency Swap Agreement will be entitled to receive: (A) on the effective date of such Currency Swap Agreement, all secondary market trade proceeds received from purchasers of such series of the Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes in the applicable currency, (B) with respect to each applicable Quarterly Distribution Date, (x) an interest rate of Three-Month LIBOR, plus or minus a spread, as determined from the bidding process described in subsection (c) of this Section (other than as may be interpolated for an initial or final calculation period under that Currency Swap Agreement), multiplied by the U.S. Dollar Equivalent Principal Amount of such series of the Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes, and multiplied by a fraction determined by the number of days in the applicable Interest Accrual Period and the applicable Day Count Basis and (y) all payments of principal in U.S. Dollars that are allocated to such series of the Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes; provided that if a series of the Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes are then structured not to receive a payment of principal until the end of the related Reset Period, all principal payments allocated to such series on any Quarterly Distribution Date will be deposited into the applicable Accumulation Account and paid to the related Currency Swap Counterparties on or about the next Reset Date as set forth in the related Currency Swap Agreements (including all sums required to be deposited therein on the Reset Date), but excluding all investment earnings thereon, and (C) on a Reset Date corresponding to a successful remarketing or an exercise of the related Call Option or Optional Redemption, all U.S. Dollar currency equivalent of all secondary market trade proceeds or proceeds from the exercise of the related Call Option or the Optional Redemption of the Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes, as applicable, received from the Remarketing Agents directly from purchasers of the Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes (if in U.S. Dollars), from the new Currency Swap Counterparty or Counterparties, as applicable (if in non-U.S. Dollar currency) or from the holder of the related Call Option or pursuant to Section 2.13(a) of this Annex II, as applicable.


          (ii)    In addition, each related Currency Swap Counterparty will be obligated to pay to the Paying Agent, on behalf of the Issuer (for payment to the Noteholders of the related series of Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes, if applicable): (A) on the effective date of such Currency Swap Agreement, the U.S. Dollar equivalent of all secondary market trade proceeds received from purchasers of the applicable series of Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes, (B) with respect to each applicable Quarterly Distribution Date, (x) their applicable percentage of the applicable rate of interest on such series of the Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes multiplied by the Outstanding Amount of such series and multiplied by a fraction determined by the number of days in the applicable Interest Accrual Period and the applicable Day Count Basis, and (y) the applicable non-U.S. Dollar currency equivalent of the U.S. Dollars such Swap Counterparty concurrently receives from the Issuer as a payment of principal allocated to the Noteholders such series of the Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes (including, on the related Maturity Date for such series, if a Currency Swap Agreement is then in effect, the remaining Outstanding Amount of the applicable series of Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes) but only to the extent that the required U.S. Dollar Equivalent Principal Amount is received from the Issuer on such date, at an exchange rate to be set on the effective date of and set forth in the related Currency Swap Agreement, (C) on the date subsequent to any Reset Date (other than for any Reset Date following a Reset Date upon which a Failed Remarketing has occurred, up to and including the Reset Date resulting in a successful remarketing or an exercise of the related Call Option or Optional Redemption) on which the principal amount is actually paid to the related Holders of such Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes, their applicable percentage of any required amount of additional interest, at the interest rate applicable to the tendered Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes resulting from any required delay in Reset Date payments through Euroclear and Clearstream, on the principal amount to be paid to the such Holders of Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes on such date, and (D) on a related Reset Date corresponding to a successful remarketing or an exercise of the related Call Option or the Optional Redemption, the applicable currency equivalent of all U.S. Dollar secondary market trade proceeds received by the Issuer from the purchasers of the related series of Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes or proceeds received by the Issuer from the exercise of the related Call Option or Optional Redemption, as applicable, at an exchange rate to be set on the effective date of and set forth in the related Currency Swap Agreement. For any Reset Period following a Reset Date upon which a Failed Remarketing has occurred for a series of the Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes, up to any including the Reset Date resulting in a successful remarketing or an exercise of the related Call Option or Optional Redemption for such series of Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes, payments of interest and principal to Noteholders of such series will be made no later than the second Business Day following the related Reset Date without the payment of any additional interest.


          (b)    On each Reset Date if a series of the Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes are to be reset in U.S. Dollars, and a Swap Agreement is required pursuant to Sections 2.01(c) of this Annex II and subsection (d) of this Section, then the Issuer Administrator will enter into or will instruct the Trustee to enter into (not in its individual capacity, but solely as Trustee), one or more Interest Rate Swap Agreements for the next Reset Period to facilitate the Issuer's ability to pay applicable interest at the related interest rate.

          (i)    Each Swap Counterparty which is party to a related Interest Rate Swap Agreements will be entitled to receive on each Quarterly Distribution Date an interest rate of Three-Month LIBOR, plus or minus a spread, as determined from the bidding process described in subsection (c) of this Section, multiplied by the Outstanding Amount of the applicable series of Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes and multiplied by a fraction determined by the number of days in the applicable Interest Accrual Period and the applicable Day Count Basis.


          (ii)    In addition, each related Swap Counterparty which is a party to a related Interest Rate Swap Agreement will be obligated to pay to the Issuer on each Quarterly Distribution Date, the applicable rate of interest on the related series of Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes multiplied by the Outstanding Amount of such series and multiplied by a fraction determined by the number of days in the applicable Interest Accrual Period and the applicable Day Count Basis.


          (c)    The Remarketing Agents, in consultation with the Issuer Administrator, in determining the Swap Counterparty to each required Swap Agreement, will solicit bids from at least three Eligible Counterparties and will select the lowest of these bids to provide the interest rate swap and/or currency exchange swap(s). If the lowest bidder specifies a notional amount that is less than the Outstanding Amount of the applicable series of the Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes, the Remarketing Agents, in consultation with the Issuer Administrator, may select more than one Eligible Counterparty, but only to the extent that such additional Eligible Counterparties have provided the next lowest received bid or bids, and enter into more than one Swap Agreement that result in the Rating Agency Condition being satisfied.

          (d)    It is a condition precedent to the entering into of any Swap Agreement and the setting of the amount to be paid to the related Swap Counterparty that the Rating Agency Condition is satisfied. No Swap Agreement will be entered into or caused to be entered into by the Issuer, the Issuer Administrator on its behalf or the Remarketing Agents, for any Reset Period where the related Call Option or Optional Redemption has been exercised or a Failed Remarketing has been declared.

          (e)    Each Currency Swap Agreement will terminate at the earliest to occur of (i) the next succeeding Reset Date for the related series of Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes for which there is a successful remarketing, (ii) the Reset Date for such series for which the related Call Option or Optional Redemption is exercised, (iii) the Quarterly Distribution Date on which the related Outstanding Amount of the applicable series of Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes is reduced to zero or (iv) the Stated Maturity of such series of Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes. No Currency Swap Agreement will terminate solely due to the declaration of a Failed Remarketing. Each Interest Rate Swap Agreement will terminate on the earliest to occur of the next Reset Date, or the occurrence of an event specified in clause (iii) or (iv) above.

          (f)    With respect to each Currency Swap Agreement, and in the event that a Failed Remarketing is declared, the rate of interest due to each related Currency Swap Counterparty from the Issuer on each Quarterly Distribution Date will be increased to the Extension Rate and the rate due to the Issuer from each related Currency Swap Counterparty will change to equal the Failed Remarketing Rate.

          (g)    The Issuer shall not enter into any amendment to any Currency Swap Agreement to cure any ambiguity in, or to correct or supplement any provision of any Currency Swap Agreement, unless the Issuer has determined, and the Trustee has agreed in writing at the written direction of the Issuer, that the amendment will not materially adversely affect the interests of the applicable Noteholders and provided that the Issuer has provided reasonable notice to the Rating Agencies of such amendment and the Rating Agency Condition is satisfied.

          Section 2.10.   Payment of Principal on the Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes.

          (a)    If, on any Quarterly Distribution Date, a principal payment would be payable to a series of Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes when such series is structured to receive a payment of principal only at the end of the related Reset Period (as is the case for the Series 2006-1A-7A Senior Notes for the initial Reset Period), those principal payments will be allocated to such and deposited into the applicable Accumulation Account of the Accumulation Fund where it will remain until the next Reset Date for such series as provided in Section 4.08 of the Indenture (except that if such series of the Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes are in a Foreign Exchange Mode, principal will be paid according to the provisions of Sections 2.09(a)(i) and (a)(ii) of this Annex II), unless an Event of Default under the Indenture has occurred (in which case the Trustee will distribute all sums on deposit therein to the Noteholders of the applicable series of Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes in accordance with the provisions of Section 6.06 of the Indenture). The Trustee shall establish an Accumulation Account and a Supplemental Interest Account for the Series 2006-1-7A Notes during their initial Reset Period.

          (b)    On each Reset Date for a series of Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes when such series is structured to receive a payment of principal only at the end of the related Reset Period (as is the case for the Series 2006-1A-7A Senior Notes for the initial Reset Period), all sums, if any, then on deposit in the applicable Accumulation Account of the Accumulation Fund, including any allocation of principal made on the same date will be distributed by the Trustee, at the direction of the Issuer Administrator, as set forth in Section 4.08 of the Indenture, to the Noteholders of such series, as of the related Record Date, or the related Currency Swap Counterparty or Counterparties (as applicable), in reduction of principal of such series of Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes; provided, that, in the event on any Quarterly Distribution Date the amount on deposit in the related Accumulation Account of the Accumulation Fund would equal the Outstanding Amount of such series of Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes, no additional amounts will be deposited into the related Accumulation Account of the Accumulation Fund and all amounts therein will be distributed by the Trustee, at the direction of the Issuer Administrator, as set forth in Section 4.08 of the Indenture, on the next related Reset Date to the related Noteholders (or to the related Currency Swap Counterparty or Counterparties), and on such Reset Date such series of Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes will no longer be Outstanding.

          (c)    The Trustee, subject to sufficient available funds therefor, at the direction of the Issuer Administrator and pursuant to Section 4.05 of the Indenture, will deposit into a Supplemental Interest Account, the related Supplemental Interest Deposit Amount. On each Quarterly Distribution Date, all sums (which shall include investment earnings) on deposit in the Supplemental Interest Account shall be transferred to the Collection Fund.

          Section 2.11.   Remarketing Agents; Remarketing Fee Account.

          (a)    The initial Remarketing Agents, appointed pursuant to the terms of the Remarketing Agreement are UBS Securities LLC, Citigroup Global Markets Inc. and Goldman, Sachs & Co. The terms and conditions of the Remarketing Agreement will govern the duties and obligations of the Remarketing Agents. The Issuer Administrator, the Issuer and the Remarketing Agents will enter into on each related (i) Remarketing Terms Determination Date, a related Remarketing Agency Agreement in form and substance substantially the same as Appendix A to the Remarketing Agreement, unless (A) a Failed Remarketing is declared, (B) the holder of the related Call Option has delivered the related Call Option Notice on or prior to such date or (C) the series of Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes are to be redeemed pursuant to the Optional Redemption; and (ii) Spread Determination Date, a Supplemental Remarketing Agency Agreement in form and substance substantially the same as Appendix B to the Remarketing Agreement, unless (A) a Failed Remarketing is declared, (B) the holder of the related Call Option has delivered the related Call Option Notice on or prior to such date, (C) the series of Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes are to be redeemed pursuant to the Optional Redemption or (D) if applicable, 100% of the related Noteholders have timely delivered a Hold Notice and the All Hold Rate will apply for the next related Reset Period.

          (b)    Excluding all Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes for which a Remarketing Agent has received a timely delivered Hold Notice, if applicable (or if the holder of the related Call Option has delivered the related Call Option Notice), on the Reset Date that commences each Reset Period for a series of Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes, each Reset Rate Note for such series will be automatically tendered, or deemed tendered, to the relevant Remarketing Agent for remarketing by such Remarketing Agent on the related Reset Date at 100% of its Outstanding Amount. If such series is held in book-entry form, 100% of the Outstanding Amount of such series will be paid by the related Remarketing Agents in accordance with the standard procedures of the applicable Clearing Agencies.

          (c)    The Remarketing Agents will attempt, on a reasonable efforts basis and in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Remarketing Agreement and the related Remarketing Agency Agreement, to remarket the tendered Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes of the applicable series at a price equal to 100% of the Outstanding Amount of the Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes so tendered.

          (d)    Purchasers of a series of Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes will be credited with their positions on the applicable Reset Date with respect to positions held through the Securities Depository. No payment delay to existing Noteholders of a series of Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes holding U.S. Dollar-denominated Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes through the Securities Depository will occur on the related Reset Date if such series of Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes are denominated in U.S. Dollars during the immediately following Reset Period.

          (e)    Each of the Remarketing Agents, in its individual or any other capacity, may buy, sell, hold and deal in any series of the Notes, including, but not limited to, purchasing any tendered Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes as part of the remarketing process. Any Remarketing Agent that owns a Reset Rate Note may exercise any vote or join in any action which any beneficial owner of any series of Notes may be entitled to exercise or take with like effect as if it did not act in any capacity under the Remarketing Agency Agreement. Any Remarketing Agent, in its individual capacity, either as principal or agent, may also engage in or have an interest in any financial or other transaction with the Issuer, the Depositor, the Trustee (in its individual capacity), the Eligible Lender Trustee (in its individual capacity) or the Issuer Administrator as freely as if it did not act in any capacity under the Remarketing Agreement or any Remarketing Agency Agreement. No Noteholder or beneficial owner of any Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Note will have any rights or claims against any Remarketing Agent as a result of such Remarketing Agent's not purchasing any tendered Reset Rate Note, which results in the declaration of a Failed Remarketing.

          (f)    Each of the Remarketing Agents will be entitled to receive a fee in connection with their services rendered for each successful remarketing of the Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes in the amount set forth in the Remarketing Agreement and the related Remarketing Agency Agreement. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Remarketing Agreement, the Issuer Administrator, in its sole discretion, may change the Remarketing Agents for a series of Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes for any Reset Period at any time on or before the related Remarketing Terms Determination Date. In addition, the Issuer Administrator will appoint one or more additional Remarketing Agents, if necessary, for a Reset Date when a series of Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes will be remarketed in a non-U.S. Dollar currency. Furthermore, a Remarketing Agent may resign at any time; provided that no resignation may become effective on a date that is later than 15 Business Days prior to a Remarketing Terms Determination Date.

          (g)    In accordance with Section 4.03(d) of the Indenture, on the Closing Date, the Issuer shall establish the Remarketing Fee Account, which will be held by the Trustee for the benefit of the Remarketing Agents and, in certain circumstances, the Noteholders of the Senior Notes. The fees associated with each successful remarketing will be payable directly to the Remarketing Agents from amounts on deposit from time to time in the Remarketing Fee Account. On each Quarterly Distribution Date, Funds will be deposited into the Remarketing Fee Account, in the priority set forth in Section 4.05 of the Base Indenture, in an amount up to the Quarterly Funding Amount; provided that if the amount on deposit in the Remarketing Fee Account, after the payment of any remarketing fees therefrom, exceeds the Reset Period Target Amount, such excess will be withdrawn on the related Quarterly Distribution Date, deposited into the Collection Fund for that Quarterly Distribution Date. All investment earnings on deposit in the Remarketing Fee Account will be withdrawn on the next Quarterly Distribution Date, deposited into the Collection Fund for that Quarterly Distribution Date. In the event that the fees owed to any Remarketing Agent on a Reset Date exceed the amount then on deposit (after giving effect to distributions made on such Reset Date) in the Remarketing Fee Account, such shortfall shall be paid from the Collection Fund on future Quarterly Distribution Dates in the priority set forth in Section 4.05 of the Base Indenture. The Issuer shall also be responsible for certain remarketing costs and expenses to the extent set forth in Section 3 of the Remarketing Agreement, which shall be paid on each Quarterly Distribution Date from the Collection Fund at the priority set forth in Section 4.05 of the Base Indenture.

          Section 2.12.   Execution of Documents. The Trustee is hereby authorized and directed to execute and deliver, not in its individual capacity, but solely as Trustee, any Swap Agreements including any Interest Rate Swap Agreements and any Currency Swap Agreements, and any required supplement, amendment or replacement thereof, as the Issuer Administrator, in writing and from time to time, shall instruct the Trustee. The Trustee shall not be liable to any party, any third party or any Noteholder for any such actions taken at the written instruction of the Issuer Administrator. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the Trustee declines or fails to execute or deliver any such document, instrument, certificate or agreement as instructed by the Issuer Administrator, the Issuer Administrator is hereby authorized, in its sole discretion, to execute and deliver, not in its individual capacity but solely as Issuer Administrator on behalf of the Issuer, all such required documents, instruments, certificates and agreements.

          Reference is hereby made to the Indenture, copies of which are on file in the Principal Office of the Trustee, and to all of the provisions of which any Registered Holder of this Note by his acceptance hereof hereby assents, for definitions of terms; the description of and the nature and extent of the security for the Notes and Other Obligations secured thereunder; the student loan acquisition program being financed by the issuance of the Notes; the revenues and other moneys pledged to the payment of the principal of and premium, if any, and interest on the Notes and the Other Obligations; the nature and extent and manner of enforcement of the pledge; the conditions upon which Notes may be issued or Other Obligations may be incurred by the Issuer thereunder, payable from such revenues and other moneys thereunder as Senior Obligations or Subordinate Obligations; the conditions upon which the Indenture may be amended or supplemented with or without the consent of the Holders of the Notes; the rights and remedies of the Registered Holder hereof with respect hereto and thereto, including the limitations upon the right of a Registered Holder hereof to institute any suit, action or proceeding in equity or at law with respect hereto and thereto; the rights, duties and obligations of the Issuer and the Trustee thereunder; the terms and provisions upon which the liens, pledges, charges, trusts and covenants made therein may be discharged at or prior to the maturity or redemption of this Note, and this Note thereafter no longer be secured by the Indenture, or be deemed to be Outstanding thereunder; and for the other terms and provisions thereof.

Any such consent or waiver shall be conclusive and binding upon the Registered Holder of this Note and upon all future Registered Holders hereof and of any Note issued in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note.

If a series of Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes is optionally redeemed while bearing interest at an auction rate, any Carry-Over Amounts accrued on the series of Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes being redeemed will be extinguished on the date of such Optional Redemption.

          The Series 2006-1A-7_ Senior Notes are also subject to a call option pursuant to Section 2.06 of Appendix II of the Seventh Supplement by College Loan Corporation, or its assignee, on any Reset Date and on any date for a series of Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes following a Failed Remarketing for such series and the continuation thereof. The purchase price paid for such reset rate notes will be equal to 100% of the Principal Amount of such Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued interest thereon to the purchase date.

          All Series 2006-1A-7_ Senior Notes called for redemption will cease to bear interest after the specified redemption or purchase date, provided funds for their payment are on deposit at the place of payment at the time. Preferably five, but not less than two Business Days prior to each Quarterly Distribution Date on which the Series 2006-1A-7_ Senior Notes are to be redeemed, the Trustee shall cause notice such redemption to be given by mailing a copy of the notice by first-class mail to the Issuer Administrator and Registered Owners of the Series 2006-1A-7_ Senior Notes, at their address as the same shall last appear upon the registration books on such date; provided, however, that failure to give such notice, or any defect therein, shall not affect the validity of any proceedings for the reduction or redemption of the Series 2006-1A-7_ Senior Notes.

          The Indenture provides that the Issuer may enter into a derivative product (a "Derivative Product") between the Issuer and a derivative provider (a "Counterparty"), as originally executed and as amended or supplemented, or other interest rate hedge agreement between the Issuer and a Counterparty, as originally executed and as amended or supplemented. Payments due to a Counterparty from the Issuer pursuant to the applicable Derivative Product are referred to herein as "Issuer Derivative Payments," and may be paid on a parity with interest on any class of the Notes.

          The Series 2006-1A-7_ Senior Notes are and will be secured by the Trust Estate pledged as security therefor as provided in the Indenture. The Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes, other Senior Notes and any Derivative Products are senior to the Subordinate Notes as and to the extent provided in the Indenture. The Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes and other Senior Notes are, except for certain Termination Payments that are not Priority Termination Payments, issued on a parity with any Derivative Products entered into by the Issuer with a Counterparty, pursuant to which the Issuer will, from time to time, owe Issuer Derivative Payments, and will, from time to time, be owed Counterparty Payments.

          Reference is hereby made to the Indenture, copies of which are on file at the designated corporate trust office of the Trustee, and to all of the provisions of which any Registered Owner of this note by his acceptance hereof hereby assents, for definitions of terms; the description of and the nature and extent of the security for the Notes; the Issuer's student loan origination and acquisition program; the revenues and other money pledged to the payment of the principal of and interest on the Notes; the nature and extent and manner of enforcement of the pledge; the conditions upon which the Indenture may be amended or supplemented with or without the consent of the Registered Owners of the Notes and any Swap Counterparty; the rights and remedies of the Registered Owner hereof with respect hereto and thereto, including the limitations upon the right of a Registered Owner hereof to institute any suit, action, or proceeding in equity or at law with respect hereto and thereto; the rights, duties, and obligations of the Issuer and the Trustee thereunder; the terms and provisions upon which the liens, pledges, charges, trusts, and covenants made therein may be discharged at or prior to the stated maturity or earlier redemption of this note, and this note thereafter shall no longer be secured by the Indenture or be deemed to be Outstanding, as defined in the Indenture, thereunder; and for the other terms and provisions thereof.

          THE NOTES ARE LIMITED OBLIGATIONS OF THE ISSUER, PAYABLE SOLELY FROM, AND FURTHER SECURED BY, THE TRUST ESTATE, AS DEFINED IN THE INDENTURE.

          No recourse, either directly or indirectly, shall be had for the payment of the principal of and interest on this note or any claim based hereon or in respect hereof or of the Indenture, against the Trustee, or any incorporator, director, officer, employee, or agent of the Issuer, but the obligation to pay all amounts required by the Indenture securing this note and the obligation to do and perform the covenants and acts required of the Issuer therein and herein shall be and remain the responsibility and obligation of said Issuer, limited as herein set forth.

          As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations set forth therein, the transfer of this Note may be registered upon the records of the Trustee upon surrender for transfer of any Note at the Principal Office of the Trustee, duly endorsed for transfer or accompanied by an assignment duly executed by the Registered Owner or his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon the Issuer shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in the name of the transferee or transferees a new fully registered Note or Notes of the same interest rate and for a like class and aggregate principal amount of the same maturity.

          Notwithstanding any provision of this Note to the contrary, in no event shall the cumulative amount of interest paid or payable on this Note (including interest calculated as provided herein, plus any other amounts that constitute interest on this Note under applicable law, which are contracted for, charged, reserved, taken or received pursuant to this Note or related documents) calculated from the Date of Original Issuance of this Note through any subsequent day during the term of this Note or otherwise prior to payment in full of this Note exceed the amount permitted by applicable law. If the applicable law is ever judicially interpreted so as to render usurious any amount called for under this Note or related documents or otherwise contracted for, charged, reserved, taken or received in connection with this Note, or if the redemption or acceleration of the Maturity of this Note results in payment to or receipt by the Registered Holder or any former Registered Holder hereof of any interest in excess of that permitted by applicable law, then notwithstanding any provision of this Note or related documents to the contrary all excess amounts theretofore paid or received with respect to this Note shall be credited on the principal balance of this Note (or, if this Note has been paid or would thereby be paid in full, refunded by the recipient thereof), and the provisions of this Note and related documents shall immediately be deemed reformed and the amounts thereafter collectible hereunder and thereunder reduced, without the necessity of the execution of any new document, so as to comply with the applicable law, but so as to permit the recovery of the fullest amount otherwise called for under this Note and under the related documents.

          If provision is made for the payment of principal of and interest on this Note in accordance with the Indenture, this Note shall no longer be deemed Outstanding under the Indenture, shall cease to be entitled to the benefits of the Indenture and shall thereafter be payable solely from the funds provided for such payment.

          If an Event of Default shall occur, the principal of all the Outstanding Notes may and, under certain circumstances, shall be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture.

          The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Issuer and the rights of the Holders of the Notes and Other Beneficiaries under the Indenture at any time by the Issuer with, among other things, the consent of the Holders of two-thirds of the aggregate principal amount of Senior Notes at the time Outstanding, if affected thereby, and with the consent of the Holders of two-thirds of the aggregate principal amount of Subordinate Notes at the time Outstanding, if affected thereby. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of specified percentages in aggregate principal amount of the Senior Notes at the time Outstanding or Other Senior Beneficiaries or, if no Senior Obligations are Outstanding, the Holders of specified percentages in aggregate principal amount of the Subordinate Notes at the time Outstanding or Other Subordinate Beneficiaries, on behalf of the Holders of all the Notes, to waive certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver shall be conclusive and binding upon the Registered Holder of this Note and upon all future Registered Holders hereof and of any Note issued in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note.

          The Issuer may require payment by the Registered Holder hereof of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of this Note, other than certain exchanges specifically exempted under the Indenture and not involving any transfer.

          The Issuer, the Trustee, each Paying Agent, any Authenticating Agent, the Note Registrar and any other agent of the Issuer may treat the Person in whose name this Note is registered on the Note Register as the absolute owner hereof for all purposes, whether or not this Note is overdue, and neither the Issuer, the Trustee, any Paying Agent, any Authenticating Agent, the Note Registrar nor any other such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

          It Is Hereby Certified, Recited, Covenanted and Declared that all acts, conditions and things required to have happened, to exist and to have been performed precedent to and in the issuance of this Note have happened, do exist, and have been performed in regular and due time, form and manner as so required.

          This Note shall not be valid or become obligatory for any purpose or be entitled to any security or benefit under the Indenture until the Certificate of Authentication hereon shall have been signed by the Trustee or by the Authenticating Agent by the manual signature of one of its authorized representatives.

          It is expressly understood and agreed by the holder hereof that (a) the Indenture and this Note each is executed and delivered by Wilmington Trust Company, not individually or personally but solely as Delaware Trustee of the Issuer, in the exercise of the powers and authority conferred and vested in it; (b) each of the representations, undertakings and agreement in the Indenture and this Note made on the part of the Issuer is made and intended not as personal representations, undertakings and agreements by Wilmington Trust Company but is made and intended for the purpose of binding only the Issuer; (c) nothing contained in the Indenture and this Note shall be construed as creating any liability on Wilmington Trust Company, individually or personally, to perform any covenant either expressed or implied contained in the Indenture and this Note, all such liability, if any, being expressly waived by the holder hereof and by any Person claiming by, through or under the holder hereof; and (d) under no circumstances shall Wilmington Trust Company be personally liable for the payment of any indebtedness or expenses of the Issuer or be liable for the breach or failure of any obligations, representation, warranty or covenant made or undertaken by the Issuer under the Indenture, this Note or the other Basic Documents.

          This Note shall be construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without reference to its conflict of law provisions, and the obligations, rights and remedies of the parties hereunder and thereunder shall be determined in accordance with such laws.

          IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Issuer has caused this Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Note to be executed in its name by the manual signature of the Delaware Trustee.

Registered Holder: Cede & Co.
Notional Amount:

          For Value Received, College Loan Corporation Trust I, a Delaware statutory trust (the "Issuer," which term includes any successor under the Indenture hereinafter referred to), acknowledges itself indebted and hereby promises to pay to the registered holder specified above, or registered assigns (the "Registered Holder"), but solely from the revenues and receipts hereinafter specified and not otherwise, the interest on the Notional Amount specified above as detailed herein and in the Indenture (as hereinafter defined) until the Stated Maturity Date (or as such Notional Amount may be reduced pursuant to the Indenture), upon presentation and surrender of this Note at the Principal Office of the Trustee (as hereinafter defined), as Paying Agent for the Series 2006-1 Notes (as hereinafter defined), or a duly appointed successor Paying Agent, and to pay interest on said Notional Amount, but solely from the revenues and receipts hereinafter specified and not otherwise, to the Registered Holder hereof from the date hereof until said Notional Amount is reduced to zero, payable on each Interest Payment Date and at the Stated Maturity Date, at the Interest Rate stated above, and at the same rate per annum (to the extent that the payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable) on overdue installments of interest.

Any interest not so timely paid or duly provided for (herein referred to as "Defaulted Interest") shall cease to be payable to the person who is the Registered Holder hereof at the close of business on the Regular Record Date and shall be payable to the person who is the Registered Holder hereof at the close of business on a Special Record Date for the payment of any such Defaulted Interest. Such Special Record Date shall be fixed by the Trustee whenever moneys become available for payment of the Defaulted Interest, and notice of the Special Record Date shall be given to the Registered Holder hereof not less than ten days prior thereto by first-class mail to such Registered Holder as shown on the Note Register on a date selected by the Trustee, stating the date of the special record date and the date fixed for the payment of such Defaulted Interest. The principal of, premium, if any, and interest on this Note are payable in lawful money of the United States of America.

          This Note is one of an authorized series of Senior Notes (collectively referred to herein as the "Series 2006-1A-IO Senior Notes") issued by the Issuer pursuant to a Second Amended and Restated Indenture of Trust, dated as of April 1, 2006 (as supplemented and amended previously and as supplemented by the Seventh Supplement dated as of April 1, 2006 and as may be further supplemented and amended, the "Indenture"), from the Issuer and Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as eligible lender trustee, to Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as Trustee (the "Trustee," which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture).

          Reference is hereby made to the Indenture, copies of which are on file in the Principal Office of the Trustee, and to all of the provisions of which any Registered Holder of this Note by his acceptance hereof hereby assents, for definitions of terms; the description of and the nature and extent of the security for the Notes and Other Obligations secured thereunder; the student loan acquisition program being financed by the issuance of the Notes; the revenues and other moneys pledged to the payment of the principal of and premium, if any, and interest on the Notes and the Other Obligations; the nature and extent and manner of enforcement of the pledge; the conditions upon which Notes may be issued or Other Obligations may be incurred by the Issuer thereunder, payable from such revenues and other moneys thereunder as Senior Obligations or Subordinate Obligations; the conditions upon which the Indenture may be amended or supplemented with or without the consent of the Holders of the Notes; the rights and remedies of the Registered Holder hereof with respect hereto and thereto, including the limitations upon the right of a Registered Holder hereof to institute any suit, action or proceeding in equity or at law with respect hereto and thereto; the rights, duties and obligations of the Issuer and the Trustee thereunder; the terms and provisions upon which the liens, pledges, charges, trusts and covenants made therein may be discharged at or prior to the maturity or redemption of this Note, and this Note thereafter no longer be secured by the Indenture, or be deemed to be Outstanding thereunder; and for the other terms and provisions thereof. Terms used with initial capital letters but not defined in this Note have the respective meanings given such terms in the Indenture. The Series 2006-1 Notes are being issued as, and will constitute, Senior Notes under the Indenture.

          The Notes and Other Obligations are limited obligations of the Issuer, payable solely from the Trust Estate created under the Indenture, consisting of certain revenues and Funds and Accounts pledged under the Indenture including, but not limited to, payments of principal and interest made by obligors of Financed Student Loans and available Note proceeds.

          The Issuer will pay interest on the Notional Amount of the Series 2006-1A-IO Senior Notes at the rate per annum equal to the Note Interest Rate (as defined in the Indenture) for this Note, on each Quarterly Distribution Date until the Notional Amount of the Series 2006-1A-IO Senior Notes is reduced to zero. Interest on this Series 2006-1A-IO Senior Notes will accrue for each Quarterly Distribution Date on the Notional Amount of the Series 2006-1A-IO Senior Notes until such Notional Amount is reduced to zero, from the most recent Quarterly Distribution Date on which interest has been paid to but excluding such Quarterly Distribution Date or, if no interest has yet been paid, from the Closing Date). Such interest on this Note shall be paid in the manner specified herein.

          If on any Quarterly Distribution Date the amount of interest payable to the Series 2006-1A-IO Senior Notes is not based on the initial principal amount of the Series 2006-1A-6 Senior Notes, the Series 2006-1A-IO Senior Notes will also be entitled to receive series IO Carry-Over Interest in an amount equal to the difference between the amount of interest accrued at the Series 2006-1A-IO Senior Notes interest rate on the initial principal amount of the Series 2006-1A-6 Senior Notes and the amount of interest accrued at such interest rate on the actual principal balance of the Series 2006-1A-6 Senior Notes. Series IO carry-over interest will be paid as further described under Section 4.05 of the Indenture. Any series IO carry-over interest remaining unpaid on the final maturity date for the Series 2006-1A-IO Senior Notes will be payable on subsequent quarterly distribution dates, to the extent of available funds, to the last record owner of the Series 2006-1A-IO Senior Notes.

          Interest payable on this Note shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months, and is payable on each regularly scheduled Interest Payment Date prior to the Maturity hereof and at the Maturity hereof. The interest payable on each Interest Payment Date for this Note shall be that interest which has accrued through the last day of the last complete Interest Period immediately preceding the Interest Payment Date or, in the case of the Maturity hereof, the last day preceding the date of such Maturity. The Applicable Interest Rate shall be effective as of and on the first day (whether or not a Business Day) of the applicable Interest Period and be in effect thereafter through the end of such Interest Period.

          The unpaid principal amount hereof from time to time outstanding shall bear interest at an Applicable Interest Rate, payable on each Interest Payment Date and at the Maturity hereof such interest to accrue from the later of the date hereof or the date through which interest has been paid or duly provided for.

          The Interest Period, the Applicable Interest Rate, the method of determining the Applicable Interest Rate on each of the Series 2006-1 Notes and the redemption provisions of the Series 2006-1 Notes will be determined in accordance with the terms, conditions and provisions of the Seventh Supplement, to which terms, conditions and provisions specific reference is hereby made, and all of which terms, conditions and provisions are hereby specifically incorporated herein by reference.

          Notwithstanding any provision of this Note to the contrary, in no event shall the cumulative amount of interest paid or payable on this Note (including interest calculated as provided herein, plus any other amounts that constitute interest on this Note under applicable law, which are contracted for, charged, reserved, taken or received pursuant to this Note or related documents) calculated from the Date of Original Issuance of this Note through any subsequent day during the term of this Note or otherwise prior to payment in full of this Note exceed the amount permitted by applicable law. If the applicable law is ever judicially interpreted so as to render usurious any amount called for under this Note or related documents or otherwise contracted for, charged, reserved, taken or received in connection with this Note, or if the redemption or acceleration of the Maturity of this Note results in payment to or receipt by the Registered Holder or any former Registered Holder hereof of any interest in excess of that permitted by applicable law, then notwithstanding any provision of this Note or related documents to the contrary all excess amounts theretofore paid or received with respect to this Note shall be paid in full, refunded by the recipient thereof, and the provisions of this Note and related documents shall immediately be deemed reformed and the amounts thereafter collectible hereunder and thereunder reduced, without the necessity of the execution of any new document, so as to comply with the applicable law, but so as to permit the recovery of the fullest amount otherwise called for under this Note and under the related documents.

          If provision is made for the payment of interest and any series IO carry-over interest on this Note in accordance with the Indenture, this Note shall no longer be deemed Outstanding under the Indenture, shall cease to be entitled to the benefits of the Indenture and shall thereafter be payable solely from the funds provided for such payment.

          If an Event of Default shall occur, the principal of all the Outstanding Notes may and, under certain circumstances, shall be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture.

          The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Issuer and the rights of the Holders of the Notes and Other Beneficiaries under the Indenture at any time by the Issuer with, among other things, the consent of the Holders of two-thirds of the aggregate principal amount of Senior Notes at the time Outstanding, if affected thereby, and with the consent of the Holders of two-thirds of the aggregate principal amount of Subordinate Notes at the time Outstanding, if affected thereby. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of specified percentages in aggregate principal amount of the Senior Notes at the time Outstanding or Other Senior Beneficiaries or, if no Senior Obligations are Outstanding, the Holders of specified percentages in aggregate principal amount of the Subordinate Notes at the time Outstanding or Other Subordinate Beneficiaries, on behalf of the Holders of all the Notes, to waive certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver shall be conclusive and binding upon the Registered Holder of this Note and upon all future Registered Holders hereof and of any Note issued in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note.

          The Issuer may require payment by the Registered Holder hereof of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of this Note, other than certain exchanges specifically exempted under the Indenture and not involving any transfer.

          The Issuer, the Trustee, each Paying Agent, any Authenticating Agent, the Note Registrar and any other agent of the Issuer may treat the Person in whose name this Note is registered on the Note Register as the absolute owner hereof for all purposes, whether or not this Note is overdue, and neither the Issuer, the Trustee, any Paying Agent, any Authenticating Agent, the Note Registrar nor any other such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

          It Is Hereby Certified, Recited, Covenanted and Declared that all acts, conditions and things required to have happened, to exist and to have been performed precedent to and in the issuance of this Note have happened, do exist, and have been performed in regular and due time, form and manner as so required.

          This Note shall not be valid or become obligatory for any purpose or be entitled to any security or benefit under the Indenture until the Certificate of Authentication hereon shall have been signed by the Trustee or by the Authenticating Agent by the manual signature of one of its authorized representatives.

          It is expressly understood and agreed by the holder hereof that (a) the Indenture and this Note each is executed and delivered by Wilmington Trust Company, not individually or personally but solely as Delaware Trustee of the Issuer, in the exercise of the powers and authority conferred and vested in it; (b) each of the representations, undertakings and agreement in the Indenture and this Note made on the part of the Issuer is made and intended not as personal representations, undertakings and agreements by Wilmington Trust Company but is made and intended for the purpose of binding only the Issuer; (c) nothing contained in the Indenture and this Note shall be construed as creating any liability on Wilmington Trust Company, individually or personally, to perform any covenant either expressed or implied contained in the Indenture and this Note, all such liability, if any, being expressly waived by the holder hereof and by any Person claiming by, through or under the holder hereof; and (d) under no circumstances shall Wilmington Trust Company be personally liable for the payment of any indebtedness or expenses of the Issuer or be liable for the breach or failure of any obligations, representation, warranty or covenant made or undertaken by the Issuer under the Indenture, this Note or the other Basic Documents.

Such Special Record Date shall be fixed by the Trustee whenever moneys become available for payment of the Defaulted Interest, and notice of the Special Record Date shall be given to the Registered Holder hereof not less than ten days prior thereto by first-class mail to such Registered Holder as shown on the Note Register on a date selected by the Trustee, stating the date of the special record date and the date fixed for the payment of such Defaulted Interest. The principal of, premium, if any, and interest on this Note are payable in lawful money of the United States of America.

          This Note is one of an authorized series of Subordinate Notes (collectively referred to herein as the "Series 2006-1B Notes") issued by the Issuer pursuant to a Second Amended and Restated Indenture of Trust, dated as of April 1, 2006 (as supplemented and amended previously and as supplemented by the Seventh Supplement dated as of April 1, 2006 and as may be further supplemented and amended, the "Indenture"), from the Issuer and Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as eligible lender trustee, to Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as Trustee (the "Trustee," which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture).

          Reference is hereby made to the Indenture, copies of which are on file in the Principal Office of the Trustee, and to all of the provisions of which any Registered Holder of this Note by his acceptance hereof hereby assents, for definitions of terms; the description of and the nature and extent of the security for the Notes and Other Obligations secured thereunder; the student loan acquisition program being financed by the issuance of the Notes; the revenues and other moneys pledged to the payment of the principal of and premium, if any, and interest on the Notes and the Other Obligations; the nature and extent and manner of enforcement of the pledge; the conditions upon which Notes may be issued or Other Obligations may be incurred by the Issuer thereunder, payable from such revenues and other moneys thereunder as Senior Obligations or Subordinate Obligations; the conditions upon which the Indenture may be amended or supplemented with or without the consent of the Holders of the Notes; the rights and remedies of the Registered Holder hereof with respect hereto and thereto, including the limitations upon the right of a Registered Holder hereof to institute any suit, action or proceeding in equity or at law with respect hereto and thereto; the rights, duties and obligations of the Issuer and the Trustee thereunder; the terms and provisions upon which the liens, pledges, charges, trusts and covenants made therein may be discharged at or prior to the maturity or redemption of this Note, and this Note thereafter no longer be secured by the Indenture, or be deemed to be Outstanding thereunder; and for the other terms and provisions thereof. Terms used with initial capital letters but not defined in this Note have the respective meanings given such terms in the Indenture. The Series 2006-1B Notes are being issued as, and will constitute, Subordinate Notes under the Indenture.

          The Notes and Other Obligations are limited obligations of the Issuer, payable solely from the Trust Estate created under the Indenture, consisting of certain revenues and Funds and Accounts pledged under the Indenture including, but not limited to, payments of principal and interest made by obligors of Financed Student Loans and available Note proceeds.

          The Series 2006-1B Notes constitute Subordinate Notes under the Indenture which are subordinated in right of payment, the direction of remedies and certain other matters in accordance with the terms of the Indenture to the rights of the Holders of Senior Notes issued from time to time under the Indenture and Other Senior Beneficiaries thereunder (except termination payments due under swap agreements as a result of swap counterparty default). A failure to pay principal of and premium, if any, or interest on this Subordinate Note will not constitute an Event of Default under the Indenture if any Senior Obligation is Outstanding.

          Interest payable on this Series 2006-1B Note shall be computed on the basis of a 365-day year for the number of days actually elapsed, except that for any leap year such calculation with respect to an Interest Payment Date occurring after January 1 of such year through December 31 of such year shall be computed on the basis of a 366-day year, and accrue daily from the date hereof, and is payable on each regularly scheduled Interest Payment Date prior to the Maturity hereof and at the Maturity hereof. The interest payable on each Interest Payment Date for this Note shall be that interest which has accrued through the last day of the last complete Interest Period immediately preceding the Interest Payment Date or, in the case of the Maturity hereof, the last day preceding the date of such Maturity. The Applicable Interest Rate shall be effective as of and on the first day (whether or not a Business Day) of the applicable Interest Period and be in effect thereafter through the end of such Interest Period.

          The unpaid principal amount hereof from time to time outstanding shall bear interest at an Applicable Interest Rate, payable on each Interest Payment Date and at the Maturity hereof such interest to accrue from the later of the date hereof or the date through which interest has been paid or duly provided for.

          The Interest Period, the Applicable Interest Rate, the method of determining the Applicable Interest Rate on each of the Series 2006-1B Notes and the Auction Procedures related thereto, an Auction Period Adjustment, a change in the Auction Date and the Interest Payment Dates will be determined in accordance with the terms, conditions and provisions of the Seventh Supplement and the Auction Agent Agreement, to which terms, conditions and provisions specific reference is hereby made, and all of which terms, conditions and provisions are hereby specifically incorporated herein by reference.

          By purchasing Series 2006-1B Notes, whether in an Auction or otherwise, each purchaser of the Series 2006-1B Notes, or its Broker-Dealer, must agree and shall be deemed by such purchase to have agreed (a) to participate in Auctions on the terms described in the Seventh Supplement, (b) to have its beneficial ownership of the Series 2006-1B Notes maintained at all times in Book-Entry Form for the account of its Participant, which in turn will maintain records of such beneficial ownership, and (c) to authorize such Participant to disclose to the Auction Agent such information with respect to such beneficial ownership as the Auction Agent may request. So long as the ownership of Series 2006-1B Notes is maintained in Book-Entry Form by the Securities Depository, an Existing Holder may sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of Series 2006-1B Notes only pursuant to a Bid or Sell Order placed in an Auction or otherwise sell, transfer or dispose of Series 2006-1B Notes through a Broker-Dealer, provided that, in the case of all transfers other than pursuant to Auctions, such Existing Holder, its Broker-Dealer or its Participant advises the Auction Agent of such transfer.

          The determination of the Applicable Interest Rate by the Auction Agent or any other authorized Person pursuant to the provisions of the Seventh Supplement shall be conclusive and binding on the Holders of the Series 2006-1B Notes to which such Applicable Interest Rate applies, and the Issuer and the Trustee may rely thereon for all purposes.

          Notwithstanding any provision of this Note to the contrary, in no event shall the cumulative amount of interest paid or payable on this Note (including interest calculated as provided herein, plus any other amounts that constitute interest on this Note under applicable law, which are contracted for, charged, reserved, taken or received pursuant to this Note or related documents) calculated from the Date of Original Issuance of this Note through any subsequent day during the term of this Note or otherwise prior to payment in full of this Note exceed the amount permitted by applicable law. If the applicable law is ever judicially interpreted so as to render usurious any amount called for under this Note or related documents or otherwise contracted for, charged, reserved, taken or received in connection with this Note, or if the redemption or acceleration of the Maturity of this Note results in payment to or receipt by the Registered Holder or any former Registered Holder hereof of any interest in excess of that permitted by applicable law, then notwithstanding any provision of this Note or related documents to the contrary all excess amounts theretofore paid or received with respect to this Note shall be credited on the principal balance of this Note (or, if this Note has been paid or would thereby be paid in full, refunded by the recipient thereof), and the provisions of this Note and related documents shall immediately be deemed reformed and the amounts thereafter collectible hereunder and thereunder reduced, without the necessity of the execution of any new document, so as to comply with the applicable law, but so as to permit the recovery of the fullest amount otherwise called for under this Note and under the related documents.

          It is provided in the Seventh Supplement that Series 2006-1B Notes of a denomination larger than $25,000 may be redeemed in part ($25,000 or a multiple thereof) and that upon any partial redemption of any such Series 2006-1B Note the same shall be surrendered in exchange for one or more new Notes of the same series in authorized form for the unredeemed portion of principal.

          If provision is made for the payment of principal of and premium, if any, and interest on this Note in accordance with the Indenture, this Note shall no longer be deemed Outstanding under the Indenture, shall cease to be entitled to the benefits of the Indenture and shall thereafter be payable solely from the funds provided for such payment.

          If an Event of Default shall occur, the principal of all the Outstanding Notes may and, under certain circumstances, shall be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture.

          The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Issuer and the rights of the Holders of the Notes an Other Beneficiaries under the Indenture at any time by the Issuer with, among other things, the consent of the Holders of two-thirds of the aggregate principal amount of Senior Notes at the time Outstanding, if affected thereby, and with the consent of the Holders of two-thirds of the aggregate principal amount of Subordinate Notes at the time Outstanding, if affected thereby. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of specified percentages in aggregate principal amount of the Senior Notes at the time Outstanding or Other Senior Beneficiaries or, if no Senior Obligations are Outstanding, the Holders of specified percentages in aggregate principal amount of the Subordinate Notes at the time Outstanding or Other Subordinate Beneficiaries, on behalf of the Holders of all the Notes, to waive certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver shall be conclusive and binding upon the Registered Holder of this Note and upon all future Registered Holders hereof and of any Note issued in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note.

          The Issuer may require payment by the Registered Holder hereof of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of this Note, other than certain exchanges specifically exempted under the Indenture and not involving any transfer.

          The Issuer, the Trustee, each Paying Agent, any Authenticating Agent, the Note Registrar and any other agent of the Issuer may treat the Person in whose name this Note is registered on the Note Register as the absolute owner hereof for all purposes, whether or not this Note is overdue, and neither the Issuer, the Trustee, any Paying Agent, any Authenticating Agent, the Note Registrar nor any other such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

          It Is Hereby Certified, Recited, Covenanted and Declared that all acts, conditions and things required to have happened, to exist and to have been performed precedent to and in the issuance of this Note have happened, do exist, and have been performed in regular and due time, form and manner as so required.

          This Note shall not be valid or become obligatory for any purpose or be entitled to any security or benefit under the Indenture until the Certificate of Authentication hereon shall have been signed by the Trustee or by the Authenticating Agent by the manual signature of one of its authorized representatives.

          It is expressly understood and agreed by the holder hereof that (a) the Indenture and this Note each is executed and delivered by Wilmington Trust Company, not individually or personally but solely as Delaware Trustee of the Issuer, in the exercise of the powers and authority conferred and vested in it; (b) each of the representations, undertakings and agreement in the Indenture and this Note made on the part of the Issuer is made and intended not as personal representations, undertakings and agreements by Wilmington Trust Company but is made and intended for the purpose of binding only the Issuer; (c) nothing contained in the Indenture and this Note shall be construed as creating any liability on Wilmington Trust Company, individually or personally, to perform any covenant either expressed or implied contained in the Indenture and this Note, all such liability, if any, being expressly waived by the holder hereof and by any Person claiming by, through or under the holder hereof; and (d) under no circumstances shall Wilmington Trust Company be personally liable for the payment of any indebtedness or expenses of the Issuer or be liable for the breach or failure of any obligations, representation, warranty or covenant made or undertaken by the Issuer under the Indenture, this Note or the other Basic Documents.

an Accredited Investor that is buying without a view to distribution of the Notes.

  4.

In the normal course of its business, the Investor invests in or purchases securities similar to the Notes, and the Investor has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of purchasing the Notes.

  6.

The Investor: (a) acknowledges receipt of the Indenture and the Offering Memorandum (the "Offering Memorandum") dated April __, 2006, relating to the Series 2006-1 Reset Rate Notes; the Investor acknowledges that the all payments will be based solely on amounts to be received on the Financed Student Loans.

  7. The Investor is not acquiring such Notes, directly or indirectly, for or on behalf of a person who is not a United States person (as defined in Section 7701 of the Code).

Very truly yours,
[INVESTOR]

OPINION OF STROOCK & STROOCK & LAVAN LLP

April 25, 2006

To the Persons Listed on Schedule I Hereto

Re:       College Loan Corporation Trust I

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as special counsel to College Loan Corporation Trust I (the “Issuer”) and College Loan LLC (the “Depositor) in connection with the issuance by the Issuer of $1,390,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its Student Loan Asset-Backed Notes, Series 2006-1A-1, Series 2006-1A-2, Series 2006-1A-3, Series 2006-1A-4, Series 2006-1A-5, Series 2006-1A-6, Series 2006-1A-IO and Series 2006-1B (collectively, the “Public Notes”). As such counsel, we have examined copies of: (a) the Second Amended and Restated Indenture of Trust, dated as of April 1, 2006 (the “Base Indenture”) and a related Seventh Supplemental Indenture of Trust, dated as of April 1, 2006 (collectively, with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”), among the Issuer, Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as eligible lender trustee and as indenture trustee, and the Public Notes issued pursuant thereto, (b) the Trust Agreement, dated as of March 5, 2002, between Wilmington Trust Company (the “Owner Trustee”) and the Depositor, as amended and restated by the Trust Agreement, dated as of March 1, 2002 (as amended and restated, the “Trust Agreement”), among the Owner Trustee and the Depositor, (c) the Underwriting Agreement, dated as of April 19, 2006 (the “Underwriting Agreement”), among College Loan Corporation, the Issuer and Citigroup Global Markets Inc., J. P. Morgan Securities Inc., UBS Securities LLC and Goldman, Sachs & Co. (collectively, the “Underwriters”), (d) the Base Prospectus, dated March 28, 2006 (the “Base Prospectus”), (e) the Prospectus Supplement, dated April 20, 2006 (the “Prospectus Supplement” and together with the Base Prospectus, the “Prospectus”), and (f) the Registration Statement No. 333-112075 (the “Registration Statement”) filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”). We have also examined such other documents, papers, statutes and authorities, as we have deemed necessary as a basis for the opinions hereinafter set forth. The documents referred to in (a) — (c) above, inclusive, are referred to herein as the “Agreements.”

In rendering this opinion, we have assumed (a) the due authorization, execution and delivery of the Agreements by all parties thereto (except for the Issuer and the Depositor), (b) that such parties have the legal power to act in the capacities in which they are to act thereunder (except for the Issuer and the Depositor) and that the Agreements constitute their valid and legally binding obligation subject to the effect of bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance and other similar laws relating to or affecting creditors’ rights generally and court decisions with respect thereto, (c) the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, (d) the conformity to the original documents of all documents submitted to us as copies and (e) the genuineness of all signatures on all documents submitted to us. As to various matters of fact relevant to the opinions hereinafter expressed, we have relied upon the representations and warranties contained in the Agreements and statements and certificates of officers and representatives of the Issuer, the Depositor and others.

Attorneys involved in the preparation of this opinion are admitted to practice law in the State of New York and we do not express any opinion herein concerning any law other than the laws of the State of New York, the Delaware Limited Liability Company Act, the Delaware Statutory Trust Act and United States federal law.

The opinions expressed in paragraph 4 below, to the extent they relate to matters of federal income taxation, and in paragraph 5 below are based on provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, Treasury Regulations thereunder and administrative and judicial interpretations thereof, as of the date hereof, all of which are subject to change (possibly on a retroactive basis). In rendering such opinions, we have relied on certain factual, numerical and statistical information provided to us by the Underwriters, as well as representations and warranties contained in the Agreements and statements and representations of the Issuer, the Depositor and others.

Based upon and subject to the foregoing, we are of the opinion that:

1.           The Issuer has the requisite entity power and authority to execute and deliver the Indenture and to perform its obligations thereunder. The Depositor has the requisite entity power and authority to execute and deliver the Trust Agreement and to perform its obligations thereunder.

2.           The Indenture has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Issuer and the Trust Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Depositor. The issuance, offer, sale and delivery of the Public Notes have been duly authorized by the Issuer.

3.           The Public Notes, when issued, authenticated, delivered and paid for in accordance with the Indenture and the Underwriting Agreement, will be the valid, legal and binding obligations of the Issuer, entitled to the benefits of the Indenture and enforceable in accordance with their terms, subject (a) to the effect of bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium, and similar laws relating to or affecting creditors’ rights generally and court decisions with respect thereto and (b) to the understanding that no opinion is expressed as to the application of equitable principles in any proceeding, whether at law or in equity.

4.           The information (i) in the Prospectus Supplement under the caption “Federal Income Tax Considerations,” and (ii) in the Base Prospectus under the caption “Federal Income Tax Consequences,” to the extent that it constitutes matters of federal or New York law, summaries of legal matters or legal conclusions, has been reviewed by us and is correct in all material respects.

5.           The Public Notes will be treated as debt for federal income tax purposes under federal income tax law, and the Issuer will not be characterized as an association (or publicly traded partnership) taxable as a corporation under federal income tax law.

This opinion is solely for the benefit of the addressees hereof, and may not be relied upon in any manner by any other person or entity without our prior written consent.

We hereby consent to the filing of this letter as an exhibit to the Registration Statement and to the references to this firm under the heading “Legal Matters” in the Prospectus Supplement, without implying or admitting that we are “experts” within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the rules and regulations of the Commission issued thereunder with respect to any part of the Prospectus.

Very truly yours,

THIS AGREEMENT is made and entered into as of March 11, 2002 by and between AFSA Data Corporation (“AFSA”) and College Loan Corporation Trust I, the beneficial owner (but not legal titleholder) of certain Student Loans (herein called the “LENDER”) at Long Beach, California, with reference to the following facts:

A. AFSA has developed and is marketing a computerized origination, billing, record keeping, accounting, reporting and loan management service designated as the “Guaranteed Student Loan Processing Service” (the “Service”).

B. LENDER desires AFSA to assist it in managing its Federal Stafford (SSL), Federal PLUS and Federal Consolidation loans through the use of the Service.

Now, Therefore, AFSA and LENDER hereby agree as follows:

1. AFSA Obligations.

  A. AFSA shall service LENDER’s Federal Stafford (SSL), Federal PLUS and Federal Consolidation loan accounts as provided herein, and any similar student loan accounts as may be mutually agreed upon (the “Accounts”). For the purposes of this Agreement an “Account” shall mean one or more loans having the same holder, borrower (and student in the case of a Federal PLUS loan), loan program, Guarantor, maturity date and repayment terms. Stafford loans, whether subsidized or unsubsidized, shall be considered to have been made under the same loan program.

  B. AFSA shall perform all services and duties customary to the servicing of student loans in accordance with generally established procedures and industry standards and practices, including specifically the services and duties specified in Exhibit A (Origination Services), Exhibit B (Post-Origination Services) and Exhibit F (PLUS Credit Review Services Terms) attached to this Agreement. Such services and duties shall be performed with respect to each Account until such Account is paid in full (whether by the borrower or through the payment of Guarantee benefits or otherwise) or deconverted from AFSA’s servicing system in accordance with this Agreement, or this Agreement is otherwise terminated in accordance with Section 5 below.

  C. AFSA shall use reasonable care to perform its services and duties hereunder in material compliance with, and as required by, (i) the Higher Education Act, (ii) the applicable Guarantor Regulations, (iii) the applicable Contract of Insurance or Guarantee, and (iv) any other laws and regulations governing the servicing of the Accounts, and the foregoing requirements shall determine the general scope of services hereunder. For purposes of this Agreement the “Higher Education Act” means Part B of Title IV of the Higher Education Act of 1965, as amended from time to time, and the rules and regulations of the U.S. Department of Education or any successor thereto (the “Department”) promulgated thereunder, as amended from time to time, and “Guarantor Regulations” means any manual of policies and procedures to be followed under the guarantee program operated by applicable guarantor of the loans involved (the “Guarantor”), as well as all supplements, amendments, bulletins and updates, and all other written or unwritten policies, procedures, rules and regulations promulgated or adopted, formally or informally by such Guarantor relating to its guarantee program or the administration, interpretations, claims review or enforcement policies, procedures and practices thereunder, as the same are reasonably interpreted and understood by AFSA from time to time.

  D. Within a reasonable period after delivery of the loan files to AFSA (generally within 30 days unless otherwise expressly agreed), AFSA shall (i) establish and maintain records received by AFSA with respect to each Account and complete records of AFSA’s servicing of the Account from the date such servicing commenced, (ii) maintain possession of original promissory notes, loan applications and other required supplements that it receives from LENDER stored in a fire-rated, secure vault facility located at 2277 E. 220th Street, Long Beach, California or 501 Bleecker Street, Utica, New York, (iii) otherwise commence servicing the Accounts relating to such loan documents, and (iv) microfilm or otherwise reproduce the promissory notes, loan applications, and other required supplements and cause such reproductions to be stored at Brambles Information Management Corporation or any equivalent facility.

  E. If requested in writing by LENDER for any loans not originated by AFSA for LENDER hereunder, AFSA shall make a Full Note Examination or an Abbreviated Note Examination of the original promissory note and other loan documentation for each Account following receipt by AFSA for servicing, as requested by LENDER on Exhibit D (Note Examination Election). Following such initial election, LENDER may from time to time with AFSA’s consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, select a different loan examination option for a particular set of loans or for all subsequent loans by making a new election with respect thereto or by other appropriate written notice to AFSA.

  F. By undertaking the loan examination and other duties provided above, AFSA assumes no responsibility for the origination, disbursement, documentation or prior servicing of any loan (except to the extent that AFSA performed or was obligated to perform any of these services), it being understood and agreed that the originator and/or prior servicer shall be responsible for all aspects of each loan prior to the date on which AFSA is required to commence servicing of such loan hereunder. AFSA shall not be liable in the overall conduct of the loan examination for the entire portfolio being purchased by CLIENT for failure, despite its reasonable efforts, to detect any prior defect or note any exception during the loan examination process. In the event of any such defect or exception, LENDER shall exhaust all recourse and remedies against the original lender, prior services, or other responsible parties before asserting any claim against AFSA related thereto. The microfilm or other reproduction of each borrower file made by AFSA following delivery to AFSA for servicing shall be prima facie evidence of the record of loan documentation received and reviewed by AFSA.

  G. If requested in writing by LENDER AFSA shall provide cure services for loans that are unguaranteed due to non-AFSA errors, as provided in Exhibit E (Blanket Cure Terms).

  H. If AFSA reasonably determines that any Account has been rejected by a Guarantor and cannot or is not to be cured hereunder, LENDER is responsible for providing direction to AFSA upon AFSA’s written request for the disposition of such Account, which shall remain on AFSA’s servicing system pending such direction from LENDER. If LENDER instructs AFSA to deconvert any Accounts, AFSA shall promptly provide the following deconversion services:

  (1) Any files related to Accounts to be returned to LENDER shall be assembled in substantially the manner in which they were received by AFSA, including any pertinent documents or information received or created by AFSA during its servicing;

  (2) The files related to such Accounts shall be properly deposited in the U.S. Mail as certified or registered mail addressed to LENDER unless otherwise agreed by LENDER and AFSA. AFSA. shall not be liable for any losses, costs or damages incurred by LENDER if files are lost after being properly deposited in the U.S. Mail. If so instructed by LENDER at any time, AFSA shall procure at LENDER’s expense such available insurance coverage as LENDER may desire with respect to such shipments;

  (3) A transmittal shall be provided by AFSA to LENDER listing each Account and certain other mutually-agreeable Account information; and

  (4) Each Account record shall be removed from the AFSA servicing system.

  The deconversion and file preparation and shipping fees specified in Exhibit C (Servicing Fees) shall apply to and shall be payable concurrently with any deconversion of rejected Accounts as provided above, as well as any deconversion of Accounts following any expiration or termination of this Agreement, or any other removal of Accounts from this Agreement; provided, however, that no such fees shall be charged for any deconversion of Accounts upon termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 5.B. (upon AFSA breach) or 5.C. or 5.D. (except for reimbursement of reasonable shipping charges as provided therein).

  I. If any of the Accounts are guaranteed by a Guarantor which permits electronic interface or expedited or express claims filing or review processing (for example, Texas Guaranteed Student Loan Corporation’s Claims Automated Processing System (TGSLC’s GAPS) or Northwest Education Loan Association’s Express Claim Program (NELA’s ECP)), AFSA may participate therein on LENDER’s behalf. In such event, AFSA is hereby authorized to enter into any participation agreement or similar documentation required by such Guarantor on LENDER’s behalf as its agent in order to participate therein.

  J. In originating Consolidation Loans hereunder, AFSA shall use best efforts to meet the servicing goals as set forth on Attachment 1 to Exhibit A (Consolidation Loan Origination Servicing Goals).

2. LENDER Obligations.

  A. LENDER shall promptly transmit or cause to be transmitted to AFSA any material written communications it receives at any time with respect to any borrower’s Account, including but not limited to letters, notices of death or disability, adjudications of bankruptcy and like documents, and forms requesting deferment of repayment or loan cancellations. AFSA will have no liability for reliance upon information that would have been corrected by timely transmittal to it of any such written communication, and shall not bear any related servicing or other costs which reasonably could have been avoided thereby.

  B. LENDER shall examine all reports submitted to it by AFSA promptly upon receipt and promptly notify AFSA of any discovered errors. AFSA shall not be responsible for damages or losses caused by any error disclosed by a report to LENDER unless such error is brought to AFSA’s attention within sixty (60) days after receipt by LENDER. This time restriction shall be extended for the 799 ED Billing Form, for which the LENDER shall have 180 days to bring an error to the attention of AFSA.

  C. LENDER shall be responsible for assuring that the form documents to be used in the origination of the Accounts (other than such documents created independently by AFSA) are in compliance with all applicable federal, state and local laws and regulations, including without limitation any consumer loan laws or disclosure requirements applicable thereto, and shall defend, indemnify and hold AFSA harmless from any violation or non-compliance with any of the foregoing.

3. Banking.

  A. AFSA shall establish a disbursement bank account for loan origination. Such bank account shall be in a bank designated by AFSA which is reasonably acceptable to LENDER. Funding of said account shall be by wire transfer on a schedule which complements the mutually agreed upon disbursement schedule.

  Based on a written funding request to be delivered by AFSA, LENDER shall initiate transfer of funds to an AFSA-designated bank account at least one day prior to funding. The parties acknowledge and agree that in keeping with customary industry practice, the funding of Consolidation Loans shall occur hereunder prior to obtaining the guarantee on such loan from the applicable Guarantor, and AFSA shall not be liable to LENDER for any subsequent failure or inability to obtain or collect any guarantee on a Consolidation Loan except and only to the extent such failure or inability is directly and solely due to AFSA’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.

  B. All borrower and other remittances shall be deposited to an AFSA account at a remittance banking/lock box facility at a bank selected by AFSA which is reasonably acceptable to LENDER, with all earnings on such account being retained by AFSA. Such remittances shall be promptly processed and posted to borrower Accounts and the associated funds shall be transferred to LENDER by ACH or wire transfer on a mutually acceptable schedule.

4. Charges.

  A. LENDER shall pay AFSA for services rendered in the prior month according to the schedule of fees in Exhibit C (Servicing Fees), within fifteen (15) days after receipt of an invoice sent by AFSA to LENDER. Payments become delinquent if not received by AFSA within thirty (30) days from the date of receipt, whichever is later, and thereafter shall incur a late charge of one and one-half percent (1½%) per month until paid.

  B. The fees specified in Exhibit C shall remain fixed during the first twelve (12) months of this Agreement. Unless otherwise expressly agreed, charges during each subsequent twelve (12) month period of this Agreement may be increased over such fees charged during the previous twelve (12) month period by an amount equal to the greater of (i) the percentage increase in the U. S. Department of Labor’s Consumer Price Index for Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers, U.S. City Average (1982-84=100) (the “CPI”) for the most recent twelve (12)month period available at the time of each annual adjustment, or (ii) three percent (3%) per annum. If at any adjustment date the CPI is no longer published, then any replacement index specified by the Bureau of Labor Statistics or successor U.S. governmental agency shall be substituted therefor, with appropriate application of any necessary conversion formula as may be specified by such agency, or if no such replacement index has been so specified, then a comparable cost-of-living index as may be mutually agreed between the parties shall be used.)

  C. AFSA’s fees are subject to adjustment by AFSA (i) in the event of any increase in telephone or postage rates, or (ii) as provided in Section 5.C below.

  D. In addition to any other servicing fees or expense reimbursements to which AFSA shall be entitled under this Agreement, LENDER agrees to reimburse AFSA for (i) any sales or use taxes or similar taxes now or hereafter imposed upon any goods or services provided by or activities of AFSA hereunder, and (ii) any expenses which AFSA incurs as a result of any additional work required due to any transfer of the guarantee on serviced loans to a new or successor Guarantor, or any Guarantor error, or any testing, reconciliation or remediation project or other non-routine activity required by the particular needs of Guarantor or LENDER or resulting from third party errors.

  E. In the event of any good faith dispute by LENDER regarding any amount billed by AFSA, LENDER may by written notice to AFSA detailing the grounds for the dispute withhold payment of such disputed amount for a reasonable period pending resolution of the dispute, but shall pay the undisputed portion billed when and as due. If the dispute has not been mutually resolved within sixty (60) days after the date initially due, LENDER shall deposit the withheld amount into an independent escrow reasonably satisfactory to AFSA pending mutual agreement or court decision regarding proper disposition of such funds. Failure of LENDER to pay the undisputed portion of a billing or to place any disputed amount in escrow as provided above shall constitute a default hereunder.

  F. AFSA shall have the right to offset any amounts due from AFSA to LENDER against the servicing fees or other amounts due AFSA hereunder.

5. Term and Termination.

  A. This Agreement is for a term beginning March 11, 2002, and ending on the fifth (5th) anniversary of such date; provided, however, that unless either party shall give the other written notice of its intention not to renew this Agreement at least ninety (90) days prior to its scheduled expiration date, this Agreement shall automatically renew for successive twelve (12)-month periods thereafter, subject to any renegotiated terms which may be mutually desired.

  B. Either party may terminate this Agreement before its expiration upon a material breach by the other parry, if such breach has not been cured within ninety (90) day after written notice of such material breach bas been sent to the other party, which written notice shall specify in reasonable detail the alleged breach and reference this provision; provided, however, that the notice and cure period shall only be thirty (30) days if the breach is the non-payment of AFSA’s fees or other charges.

  C. In the event of changes in the Higher Education Act, Guarantor Regulations, or other current or future law, regulation or other requirement applicable to the serviced loans, including without limitation, any changes in any interpretation, claims review or enforcement policies, procedures or practices with respect thereto (and including, without limitation, implementation or enforcement of third-parry servicer regulations promulgated by the Department), which in AFSA’s reasonable determination expose AFSA to materially increased risk of liability to the Secretary of Education, LENDER or any other party, impose materially increased duties or obligations upon AFSA, or cause AFSA to incur materially additional expense, or materially restrict or derogate from AFSA’s indemnification rights or liability limitations under this Agreement. AFSA shall have the right, at its option, to (i) terminate this Agreement upon 180 days’ prior written notice to LENDER, or (ii) propose to LENDER an amendment to this Agreement which in AFSA’s reasonable judgment appropriately addresses the increased risk, duties or obligations (which may include an adjustment to AFSA’s fees and/or expense reimbursements), and if the parties are unable to agree upon such amendment within thirty (30) days after the same is submitted to LENDER, AFSA shall be entitled to terminate this Agreement upon 180 days’ prior written notice to LENDER. AFSA shall not be entitled to charge any deconversion fees hereunder in connection with the deconversion of LENDER’s loans from AFSPA’s system following any termination by AFSA under this Section 5.C, but AFSA shall be entitled to receive reimbursement of its reasonable file preparation and shipping costs.

  D. In the event that AFSA announces or actually commences a wind-down of its servicing activities for the purpose of exiting the student loan servicing business, LENDER shall have the right, at its option, to terminate this Agreement upon 90 days’ prior written notice to AFSA. In such event AFSA shall not be entitled to charge any deconversion fees hereunder in connection with the deconversion of LENDER’s loans from AFSA’s system following any termination by AFSA under this Section 5.D, but AFSA shall be entitled to receive reimbursement of its reasonable file preparation and shipping costs.

6. Examination of Records.

LENDER or its agent shall have the right, at reasonable hours and under reasonable circumstances on a mutually-agreeable schedule, to examine all LENDER’s assigned student loan records and material serviced by AFSA that it deems necessary to determine compliance with this Agreement. AFSA shall submit to like examination by any governmental agency or authority having supervisory jurisdiction over LENDER.

7. Exclusion of Warranties and Limitations of AFSA’s Liability.

  A. AFSA shall be entitled to reasonably rely upon any information or data supplied to it by LENDER, any party on LENDER’s behalf, or any third party normally relied upon by servicers in the student loan industry, and shall have no liability for any error or loss caused by such information or data being incomplete or inaccurate. AFSA shall not be responsible for reviewing and verifying the compliance of forms and processes prescribed by the Secretary or Guarantor with applicable state and federal laws and regulations, and AFSA shall be fully entitled to rely upon and use such materials and processes, unless notified to the contrary by LENDER, and shall have not liability for any damages or loss resulting from such use absent such notice.

  B. AFSA shall use due care and diligence in performing its services in a timely manner consistent with the applicable student loan program as reasonably interpreted and understood by AFSA. AFSA hereby excludes and disclaims any and all other warranties with respect to its services under this Agreement, and no employee, agent or representative of AFSA has the authority to bind AFSA to any other oral or written representation or warranty. LENDER will review all processing output, reports and other information provided to it by AFSA and will use due care and diligence to detect and notify AFSA of any errors therein which LENDER discovers. Upon prompt notification to or discovery by AFSA of any processing error or data inaccuracy, AFSA shall re-perform any processing to the extent practicable and necessary, without charge if AFSA is at fault and otherwise at a rate equal, in AFSA’s best and reasonable judgment, to the greater of its original charge for such processing or its direct and allocated indirect cost of such reprocessing. AFSA agrees to provide, at cost to LENDER if necessitated by the nature of the data submitted, such evidence as LENDER may reasonably require which will verify the complete and proper execution of the corrections.

  C. AFSA shall be entitled to cure at its own expense any error or omission in the performance of its duties under this Agreement by the reperformance of such duties to the extent such reperformance will reasonably eliminate or mitigate any losses to LENDER caused by such error or omission.

  D. Notwithstanding the form in which any legal or equitable action may be brought, whether in contract, tort, negligence, strict liability or otherwise, AFSA’s liability, if any, arising out of or in any way related to any act or omission by AFSA in connection with this Agreement or its services hereunder, including but not limited to errors solely due to AFSA, its equipment, operators, programmers, or program, shall be limited to direct losses of principal and interest on rejected claims resulting directly and solely from AFSA’s negligence or willful misconduct. In the event a loan is rejected by a Guarantor directly and solely due to AFSA’s negligence or willful misconduct, and AFSA is unable to cure the loan within twelve (12) months of the final reject date. AFSA shall reimburse LENDER for all principal and accrued interest loss thereon (including such loss during the period of non-guarantee) by the end of the thirteenth (13th) month following the final reject date, and the loan shall thereupon be assigned and transferred to AFSA or its designee, and this shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of LENDER relating to such occurrences.

  E. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, AFSA’s liability, if any, arising out of or in any way related to any act or omission by AFSA in connection with any leans which (i) entered repayment status prior to the date that AFSA’s assumes servicing responsibility, or (ii) have previously been cured following non-AFSA servicing error (i.e., rehab loans), shall be limited to general money damages in an aggregate amount with respect to any Account not to exceed the amount paid for AFSA’s services by LENDER with respect to such Account, and this shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of LENDER relating to such occurrences.

  F. AFSA shall have no liability for its failure to comply with any law, rule, regulation or other requirement applicable to any of the serviced loans, including without limitation any change in any interpretation, claim reviews or enforcement policies, procedures or practices with respect thereto, (i) which was not articulated in writing and actually made known to AFSA or the student loan servicing industry generally a reasonable period in advance of its implementation, (ii) which is inconsistent with general industry practices or prior Guarantor conduct or requirements unless and until AFSA shall have been notified thereof and had a reasonable opportunity to comply with such new requirement and then only with respect to servicing performed after the date thereof (i.e., not on a retroactive basis with respect to servicing which has previously occurred based upon prior requirements), or (iii) during any period in which the Department and/or any Guarantor shall have indicated that it will not enforce any such requirement, even if such requirement may legally be in effect.

  G. In no event, regardless of AFSA’s ability to reperform or cure any error, shall AFSA be liable under any circumstances, (i) for any incidental, indirect, special, punitive or consequential damages, or (ii) for failure to provide services herein for reasons beyond its reasonable control, or (iii) for any violation of applicable law, regulation or other requirement under this Agreement, where AFSA’s action or inaction was not negligent as determined by reference to legally relevant factors (including without limitation general industry standards in effect at such time), or (iv) for any losses, liabilities or expenses directly or indirectly arising in whole or in par from or relating to any Guarantor error, or (v) for any losses, liabilities or expenses directly or indirectly arising in whole or in part from or relating to any data transmission or electronic data interchange (EDI) failure or error not solely and directly due to AFSA’s negligence, or (vi) for the uncollectibihty or non-payment of any amounts payable on or with respect to Accounts serviced hereunder, or the failure of any Guarantor to pay any claim on a loan Account for any reason (including but not limited to the bankruptcy or insolvency of the Guarantor) except where the uncollectible or failure to pay such claim is directly and solely as a result of AFSA’s negligence or willful misconduct as provided hereinabove. These limitations on AFSA’s liability and exclusion of damages are independent of any other remedy or provision herein and shall not be affected by AFSA’s inability to reperform or cure any error or any failure of any other remedy or provision.

  H. AFSA’s sole liability under or in connection with this Agreement or its services, whether in contract, tort, negligence, strict liability, pursuant to violation of statute or regulation, or under any other theory, shall be limited as provided in this Section 7 and Section 8, and the provisions hereof shall constitute the sole and exclusive remedy of LENDER for breaches hereof by AFSA.

  I. No claim or action, regardless of force, arising out of or in any way related to any act or omission by AFSA in connection with this Agreement or its services hereunder shall be brought by LENDER more than one year after LENDER discovers the act or omission by AFSA giving rise to such claim or action. In the case of rejected claims filed by LENDER due to AFSA negligence or willful misconduct, such one-year period shall commence at the end of the 13th month following the final reject date.

  J. The parties agree that the foregoing provisions shall survive the termination of this Agreement and have been reflected in the amount of the charges payable by LENDER to AFSA for the Service, are an essential part of the basis for the bargain between the parties, and that AFSA would not have entered into this Agreement but for such provisions.

8. Indemnification.

  A. If AFSA or LENDER is required to appear in or is made a defendant in any legal action or other proceeding commenced by a borrower or other third party with respect to any loan Account for which services are provided hereunder, subject to the limitations contained in this Agreement, LENDER shall defend and indemnify AFSA against, and hold it harmless from, all claims, losses, liabilities, and reasonable expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising thereunder, unless and until a final judgment is entered by a court properly holding that the claim or action resulted directly and solely from the negligence or willful misconduct by AFSA under this Agreement, in which case AFSA shall thereafter defend and indemnify LENDER against, and hold it harmless from, all claims, losses, liabilities, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising from such negligence or willful misconduct (subject to Section 7 above). In particular, without limiting the foregoing, it is understood that AFSA shall be entitled to a defense and indemnity as provided above where a student alleges that he or she did not receive a proper education and/or was defrauded by the school or lender, or that a prior or subsequent servicer or collection agency committed any error or misconduct or violated any law or regulation.

  B. Notwithstanding the foregoing, AFSA will further defend, indemnify and save LENDER harmless from and against any and all claims, losses and liability relating to (i) any infringement or threatened infringement of any patent, copyright trademark, trade secret or other proprietary rights of any third party, or (ii) any physical loss or damage to property of a third parry, or (iii) any loss or damage arising from bodily injury, including death, when such loss or damage is caused by the negligent acts, omissions or intentional wrongdoing of AFSA, its employees, subcontractors or agents and which arise out of the performance of this Agreement, provided that (a) LENDER gives AFSA prompt written notice of any such claim of loss or damage and, (b) if such loss or damage involves claims by third parties, LENDER allows AFSA to control, and reasonably cooperates with AFSA in, any related defense and all related settlement negotiations.

9. Contingency Plan.

AFSA shall maintain a reasonably comprehensive contingency plan for disaster recovery and continued servicing of the Accounts (the “Plan”) and allow LENDER to review said Plan at AFSA’s site. Such review shall be no more frequently than on an annual basis or within sixty (60) days of implementing any material changes to the Plan.

10. Financial and Administrative Responsibility.

  A. Each party hereto represents that it is currently in compliance with, and agrees to maintain its compliance with, all financial and administrative responsibility standards or requirements which may be established from time to time by the Department or any Guarantor for participation in the Title IV, Higher Education Act programs for which AFSA provides services hereunder. Each party shall have the right to terminate this Agreement upon ninety (90) days’ written notice to the other in the event that the Department’s financial or administrative responsibility standards or requirements are hereafter changed and as a result such party does not thereafter satisfy such standards or requirements.

  B. AFSA agrees to provide LENDER with annual consolidated audited financial statements, as soon as the same are made available to AFSA during the term of this Agreement

  C. AFSA agrees to maintain insurance of bonds and other insurance in full force and effect at all times during the term of this Agreement that meet the following requirements: (i) a fidelity bond (or direct surety bond) with a policy limit of not less than $50,000,000, a deductible of not more than $1,000,000 and per occurrence coverage of not less than $50,000,000; and (ii) an errors and omissions policy with a policy limit of not less than $50,000,000 in the aggregate per occurrence (with no per occurrence coverage minimum), and a deductible of not more than $1,000,000.

11. Audits.

AFSA agrees to provide LENDER with (i) a copy of AFSA’s annual SAS 70 servicer audit without charge, and (ii) a copy of AFSA’s Lender Audit Guide audit report, as required by the Department under the Act, at a prorated charge consistent with the manner charged by AFSA generally to its other clients.

LENDER acknowledges that AFSA shall have the right and obligation to cooperate fully with independent auditors, the Secretary of Education, the Department’s Inspector General, the Comptroller General of the United States, and any applicable Guarantor, or their authorized representatives, in the conduct of audits, investigations, and program reviews with respect to LENDER or the Title IV, Higher Education Act programs administered by AFSA for LENDER, as authorized by law. Furthermore, LENDER agrees to provide AFSA with written notice and copies of all audit reports or findings (preliminary or final) relating to AFSA’s administration of any aspect of such program for LENDER, as soon as such audit reports or findings are available to LENDER. LENDER further agrees to indemnify, reimburse and hold AFSA harmless from the cost of cooperating with, responding to or appealing any such audit report or finding (including any reasonable cost of an attestation engagement performed for any such response or appeal, attorneys’ fees and costs), unless such audit was caused by any AFSA misconduct.

12. Waiver of Jury Trial.

THE PARTIES HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION ARISING UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER DOCUMENT OR AGREEMENT EXECUTED OR DELIVERED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH, OR IN ANYWAY CONNECTED WITH OR RELATED OR INCIDENTAL TO THE DEALINGS OF THE PARTIES HERETO WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY SUCH OTHER DOCUMENT OR AGREEMENT, OR THE SERVICES AND TRANSACTIONS RELATED HERETO OR THERETO, WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING, AND WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE.

  B. All information belonging to LENDER shall be retained by AFSA in confidence. AFSA shall not use, make, and/or maintain a list of LENDER’s Account names, addresses, and/or account numbers for any purpose other than fulfillment of its duties as Servicer under this Agreement. Upon termination or expiration of this Agreement, AFSA shall deconvert the loan Accounts as provided in Section 1.H above. This provision shall survive termination of this Agreement.

  C. Both parties agree to maintain the confidentiality of this Agreement and all amendments hereto, and the terms hereof, and any audit reports or findings (preliminary or final) relating to AFSA’s administration of any Title IV, Higher Education Act program for LENDER, and not to disclose or deliver the same (or any copies, excerpts or summaries thereof) to the Department, any other government agency, national accrediting agency, or any other third party (whether pursuant to regulation, governmental request, or otherwise) without first using best efforts to give the other party prior written notice of such intention, which notice shall be sent by fax, Federal Express or other overnight delivery service, and addressed to the other party. The other party may, at its option, thereupon take appropriate steps to assure that any such information which may be entitled to protection from disclosure under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) is so protected, and the first party shall cooperate with such efforts to protect from FOIA disclosure any information of the other party which the other party believes to constitute trade secrets, or of a commercial or financial interest, or of a privileged or confidential nature, etc., including the inclusion with such disclosure or delivery of appropriate submissions asserting protection from FOIA disclosure. Notwithstanding the foregoing, either party may disclose or deliver any of the foregoing to their independent auditors on a confidential basis, provided that such auditors shall not disclose or deliver the same without the disclosing party first complying with this paragraph.

  D. This Agreement and its performance shall be governed by the internal laws of the State of California.

  E. This Agreement may not be assigned except to an entity succeeding to substantially all of the business or assets of the assigning party, with written notice to the other party, provided, however, that LENDER may collaterally assign its interest hereunder to a trustee under en indenture pursuant to which the Lender incurs indebtedness (the “Trustee”). The Trustee shall be a third party beneficiary hereof, entitled to enforce the provisions of this Agreement against AFSA.

  F. AFSA reserves the right to change any part or all of the Service; provided, however, that such change shall not abrogate or in any way modify the substantive provisions of, and general duties of AFSA under, this Agreement.

  G. LENDER agrees to provide AFSA upon request with LENDER’s current financial statements and such other financial information as AFSA may request from time to time.

  H.

  I. This Agreement supersedes any prior agreement and contains the entire agreement of the parries on the subject matter hereof. No other agreement, statement or promise made by any party to any employee, officer or agent of the other party to this Agreement, or any other person, that is not in writing and signed by both parties to this Agreement, shall be binding upon them. No waiver, alteration or modification of the Agreement shall bind AFSA or LENDER unless in writing and duly executed by AFSA and LENDER.

  J. In the event any Account is transferred off AFSA’s servicing system, whether in connection with a termination or expiration of this Agreement, a sale of Accounts or otherwise, unless otherwise expressly provided herein or agreed in writing at the time of such transfer off, LENDER agrees to pay AFSA the deconversion and file preparation and shipping fees specified in Exhibit C (Servicing Fees).

Both parties and their counsel have participated in the preparation, drafting and negotiation of this Agreement. Accordingly, this Agreement shall be construed according to its fair language and any ambiguities shall not be resolved against either party as the drafting party.

  M. The invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of any provision or term of this Agreement in any instance shall not affect the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other instance or the validity or enforceability of any other provision, and each such provision shall be enforced to the fullest extent possible.

  N. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement.

          THIS VERIFICATION AGENT AGREEMENT dated as of October 1, 2003 (as amended from time to time, this “Agreement”), between COLLEGE LOAN CORPORATION TRUST I, a Delaware statutory trust (the “Issuer”), COLLEGE LOAN CORPORATION, a California corporation (the “Issuer Administrator”) and DEUTSCHE BANK TRUST COMPANY AMERICAS, a New York banking corporation, not in its individual capacity but solely as Verification Agent (in such capacity, the “Verification Agent “).

W I T N E S S E T H :

          WHEREAS, the Issuer, Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as indenture trustee (in such capacity, the “Indenture Trustee”) and College Loan Corporation, as issuer administrator (the “Issuer Administrator”) have entered into an Administration Agreement dated as of March 1, 2002 (the “Administration Agreement”) among such parties and Wilmington Trust Company, as Delaware Trustee (the “Delaware Trustee”), and Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as Eligible Lender Trustee (the “Eligible Lender Trustee”), in connection with the issuance from time to time by the Issuer of its notes under an Amended and Restated Indenture of Trust, dated as of October 1, 2003 (as previously amended and supplemented, the “Base Indenture”) from the Issuer and the Eligible Lender Trustee to the Indenture Trustee (together with any Supplemental Indentures and any amendments thereto made in accordance with their respective terms, the “Indenture”); and

          NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants contained herein, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:

          The Verification Agent may conclusively rely and shall be fully protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, approval or other paper or document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the property party or parties.

          It is hereby understood and agreed by the parties hereto that the Verification Agent shall rely solely on information provided to it by the Issuer Administrator in performing its duties as set forth in this Agreement and that the Verification Agent shall have no obligation to monitor the performance of the Issuer Administrator.

           Section 4. Compensation. As compensation for the performance of the verification obligations described in Section 1 and as reimbursement for its expenses related thereto, the Verification Agent shall be entitled to the fees set forth in Schedule I. The payment of the foregoing fees shall be solely an obligation of the Issuer, payable out of the Trust Estate.

The Issuer Administrator, on behalf of the Issuer, shall promptly furnish to the Verification Agent such additional information regarding the Trust Estate as the Verification Agent shall reasonably request for purposes of performing its obligations hereunder.

           Section 12. Severability. Any provision of this Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.
