Agreement is terminated in accordance with the terms hereof.

Definitions

. In addition to terms elsewhere defined in this Agreement, and except as
otherwise provided herein or as the context may otherwise require or suggest,
initially capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned thereto

Agreement to Provide Services with respect to Financed FFELP Loans; Cooperation

.

The Servicer shall provide services to the Issuer in connection with the
origination and acquisition of FFELP Loans to be Financed in accordance with
this Agreement. The Servicer shall commence servicing the Financed FFELP Loans
as of the day they are Financed and shall service the Financed FFELP Loans in
accordance with this Agreement. The Servicer may perform all or part of its
origination, acquisition, and servicing activities hereunder through a
subcontractor. The Servicer shall perform or shall cause its subcontractor to
perform all services hereunder in compliance with the Higher Education Act,
applicable requirements of each Guarantee Agency and all other applicable
federal, state and local laws and regulations. The Servicer shall be responsible
for the performance of its obligations hereunder, whether such obligations are
performed by the Servicer or by its subcontractor, and the Servicer shall be
responsible for any fees and payments required by the subcontractor. A
subcontractor shall agree to reasonable audits, examinations and inspections
with respect to the performance of its activities on behalf of the Servicer. The
Servicer shall provide the Issuer and the Trustee with prior written notice of
any subcontractor relationship (other than the existing relationships with
Educational Assistance Service Company, Inc., Great Lakes Educational Loan
Services, Inc., Nelnet, Inc. and College Access Network (formerly known as the
Student Loan Division of the Colorado Department of Higher Education, Colorado
Student Loan Program)). No such subcontractor relationship (other than the
existing relationships with Educational Assistance Service Company, Inc. and
Great Lakes Educational Loan Services, Inc., Nelnet, Inc. and College Access
Network) shall be entered into unless the Trustee has received written
confirmation from each Rating Agency that such relationship will not result in
the reduction or withdrawal of the rating on any Note.

The Issuer and the Trustee shall, in accordance with the provisions of the
Indenture, cooperate with the Servicer in delivering or causing to be delivered
Financed FFELP Loans to the Servicer for origination, acquisition and servicing
in accordance with this Agreement.

Acquisition Process

. The Issuer, the Trustee and the Servicer agree that:

Unless and until otherwise directed in writing by the Issuer, the Servicer shall
provide to the Trustee all certificates and directions required to be delivered
by the Issuer to the Trustee under the Indenture in connection with the
Financing through acquisition of Eligible Loans and FFELP Loans thereunder.

(1) Pursuant to the Issuer Student Loan Purchase Agreements, the Servicer will,
on behalf of the Issuer and the Trustee, require that each Lender transfer to
the Servicer or the Servicer's bailee, on or before each applicable Loan
Purchase Date, physical custody and possession of documentation and information
relating to FFELP Loans scheduled to be sold to the Trustee on behalf of the
Issuer on each such Loan Purchase Date. Such documentation and information so
transferred will include (i) the documents described in Exhibit B attached to
the Issuer Student Loan Purchase Agreements (the "Loan Documents"), and (ii)
such additional documentation or information relating to the FFELP Loans as the
Servicer shall reasonably require for the purpose of allowing the FFELP Loans to
be properly serviced by the Servicer.

(2) Pursuant to the GOAL Funding Transfer Agreements, the Servicer will, on
behalf of the Issuer and the Trustee, require that GOAL Funding transfer, or
cause to be transferred, to the Servicer or the Servicer's bailee, on or before
each applicable Loan Purchase Date (which term, as used in this Agreement with
respect to the purchase of Financed GOAL Funding FFELP Loans, means the date of
purchase of such loans under the applicable GOAL Funding Transfer Agreement),
physical custody and possession of documentation and information relating to
FFELP Loans scheduled to be sold to the Trustee on behalf of the Issuer on each
such Loan Purchase Date. Such documentation and information so transferred will
include (i) the documents described in Exhibit B attached to the GOAL Funding
Student Loan Purchase Agreements (the "Loan Documents"), and (ii) such
additional documentation or information relating to the FFELP Loans as the
Servicer shall reasonably require for the purpose of allowing the FFELP Loans to
be properly serviced by the Servicer.

Within a reasonable period after delivery to the Servicer (but in no event
longer than 10 Business Days unless otherwise expressly agreed) of the
documentation and information relating to the FFELP Loans identified in Section
4(b) above, the Servicer shall (i) establish and maintain all records delivered
to the Servicer with respect to each Financed FFELP Loan, and complete records
of the Servicer's servicing of the Financed FFELP Loan from the date such
servicing commenced, (ii) maintain possession of the loan documents described in
Section 6(p) and (r) hereof that it receives as required hereunder, and (iii)
image, microfilm or otherwise reproduce such documents and cause such
reproductions to be stored at a separate location.

In the course of establishing the records relating to each Financed FFELP Loan
as described in Section 4(c) hereof, the Servicer shall make note of any item
which comes to the attention of the Servicer during the establishment process
(it being understood that the Servicer will not be conducting a complete file
and note examination of each FFELP Loan to be Financed) which would make it
appear that any FFELP Loan has not been properly originated, disbursed and
documented or has not had due diligence exercised with respect thereto, in the
origination, disbursement, administration, servicing and collection thereof, in
accordance with the requirements of the Higher Education Act, the Guarantee
Program, and the applicable Student Loan Purchase Agreement. The Servicer shall
give Lenders a reasonable opportunity (but in no event longer than 30 days or
such greater period of time as the Trustee shall consent to in writing) to
correct any exceptions or problems identified by the Servicer and to provide
such documentation and information to the Servicer as shall be necessary to
correct such exceptions or problems. Except as otherwise permitted under the
Indenture, if such exceptions or problems are not corrected, the Servicer shall
return to the Lenders in accordance with procedures and under the conditions
specified in the sections of the Student Loan Purchase Agreements relating to
the rejection or repurchase of Student Loans, any documents and information
related to Student Loans which have exceptions or problems resulting in such
loans not being Eligible Loans.

The Servicer shall (i) establish a course of communication with each Lender and
(in the case of Financed GOAL Funding FFELP Loans) the GOAL Funding Servicer
sufficient to ensure that the Servicer receives notice from each Lender and the
GOAL Funding Servicer of all transactions with respect to each FFELP Loan prior
to the required time of delivery by the Servicer to the Trustee of the documents
required by Section 4(a) hereof, and (ii) load all information necessary for
servicing Financed FFELP Loans into its servicing system so that servicing and
collection of Financed FFELP Loans on the basis of "simple interest" can
commence as of the Loan Purchase Date or purchase date as required by Section 3
hereof. If interest has been collected on any FFELP Loan to be purchased by the
Trustee (for the account and on behalf of the Issuer) on the basis of the "rule
of 78's," the Servicer shall cause the Lender or (in the case of Financed GOAL
Funding FFELP Loans) GOAL Funding or the GOAL Funding Servicer wishing to sell
such loan to convert the remaining repayment schedule for each such FFELP Loan
so that it may be collected on the basis of "simple interest."

The Issuer and the Trustee shall promptly after each Loan Purchase Date, upon
request by the Servicer, provide to the Servicer any additional documentation or
information related to the Financed FFELP Loans which either of them may have in
their possession or may reasonably be able to obtain.

The Servicer shall, promptly after each Loan Purchase Date, notify the Borrower
under each Financed FFELP Loan purchased on such Loan Purchase Date of the
assignment and transfer to the Trustee (for the account and on behalf of the
Issuer) of the Lender's or (in the case of Financed GOAL Funding FFELP Loans)
GOAL Funding's interest in each such Financed FFELP Loan and shall direct each
such Borrower thereafter to make all payments on such Financed FFELP Loan
directly to the Servicer until otherwise notified by the Trustee. If a Financed
FFELP Loan has been converted from repayment under the rule of 78's to repayment
under the simple interest method, as required by Section 4(e) hereof, the Lender
or (in the case of Financed GOAL Funding FFELP Loans) GOAL Funding or the GOAL
Funding Servicer shall notify the Borrower and shall obtain the written consent
of the Borrower and take whatever additional action may be necessary to effect
such conversion of repayment method in accordance with applicable legal
requirements. Each Borrower notification shall include any information required
to be included by the Higher Education Act and the requirements of the Guarantee
Agency.

The assignment of each Financed FFELP Loan to the Trustee (for the account and
on behalf of the Issuer) shall be reported by the Servicer promptly after each
applicable Loan Purchase Date to the Secretary of Education and/or the Guarantee
Agency, as appropriate, and the Trustee, by a properly completed Loan Transfer
Report in the form required by the Secretary of Education and/or the Guarantee
Agency.

If the Servicer at any time becomes aware of an event which would (i) allow the
Issuer to reject a Student Loan under the applicable Student Loan Purchase
Agreement, or (ii) allow the Issuer to require a Lender to repurchase a Financed
Eligible Loan or Financed Student Loan or to substitute an Eligible Loan under
the applicable Student Loan Purchase Agreement, then the Servicer shall so
notify the Issuer. If the Servicer or the Issuer determine that such a Student
Loan should be rejected or repurchased, the Trustee shall take such action as
shall be necessary to allow the Issuer and the Trustee to enforce their
respective rights under the applicable Student Loan Purchase Agreement.

Origination Process

. The Issuer, the Trustee and the Servicer agree that:

Unless and until otherwise directed in writing by the Issuer, the Servicer shall
provide to the Trustee all certificates and directions required to be delivered
by the Issuer to the Trustee under the Indenture in connection with the
Financing through origination of Eligible Loans and FFELP Loans thereunder.

The Servicer shall provide disbursement and origination services in connection
with the origination and disbursement of Eligible Loans under the Indenture. The
Servicer shall perform all services and duties customary to the origination and
disbursement of FFELP Loans in accordance with generally accepted industry
standards and practices and in compliance with the Higher Education Act,
applicable requirements of the Guarantor and all other applicable federal, state
and local laws and regulations.

Servicing

. The Servicer agrees that each of the Financed FFELP Loans, while held under
the Indenture, shall be serviced by it in accordance with the procedures
established in the Higher Education Act and the Guarantee Program regulations.
Additionally, the Servicer shall perform at least the following minimum duties,
obligations and functions in connection with its servicing of such Financed
FFELP Loans:

of the student, payment status, days delinquent, number of payments made, next
payment due date, date of last payment received, total amount disbursed,
beginning of deferments and forbearances, and ending of deferments and
forbearances; and (ii) shall be maintained in a manner sufficient to allow

behalf of the Issuer).

Take all steps necessary to maintain the Guarantee coverage on each Financed
FFELP Loan in full force and effect at all times.

Exercise reasonable discretion in approving borrower requests for forbearance
(as permitted under the Higher Education Act and the Guarantee Program
regulations) where such approval will not adversely affect the financial
viability of the Issuer and will not violate the covenants set forth in the
Indenture.

Exercise due diligence (within the meaning of the Higher Education Act and the
Guarantee Program regulations) in the servicing, administration and collection
of all Financed FFELP Loans.

Attempt to collect or cause to be collected all payment of principal and

of Education directly to the Trustee for immediate deposit into the appropriate
Fund or Account under the Indenture and (ii) deposit all other such payments
within two (2) Business Days of receipt thereof by the Servicer into the Revenue
Fund established under the Indenture. Upon submission by the Servicer to the
Secretary of Education of a billing for interest subsidy payments or Special
Allowance Payments, the Servicer shall, upon request, provide to the Trustee and
the Issuer a written statement indicating (a) the amount billed for interest
subsidy payments and (b) the principal amount in each Special Allowance Payment
category for which the billing is submitted, for use by the Trustee and the
Issuer in verifying amounts billed for and received with respect thereto from
the Secretary of Education. In the event of discrepancies or disputes with the
Secretary of Education, the Servicer shall be responsible for representing the
interests of the Issuer and the Trustee in effecting a settlement with the
Secretary of Education of such discrepancies or disputes. The Servicer shall
direct the transfer from time to time of the balances in the Revenue Fund for
transfer to the appropriate Fund or Account under the Indenture. On or before
the date of any transfer, the Servicer shall deliver by facsimile, hand or mail
by U.S. express mail (or other substantially equivalent means acceptable to the
Trustee) a statement to the Trustee indicating the portion of the payments
transferred on such date which represents (x) principal payments from any source
with respect to Financed FFELP Loans, and (y) interest payments from any source
with respect to Financed FFELP Loans.

Retain summary records of all contacts, follow-ups and collection efforts
(showing at least the date and subject of each communication with the Borrower

of all correspondence (including, without limitation, changes for which records
are required to be maintained by the Higher Education Act and the Guarantee

In the case of defaulted Financed FFELP Loans, take all steps necessary to file
and prove a claim for loss with the Secretary of Education or the Guarantee
Agency, as the case may be and as required, and assume responsibility for all
necessary communication and contact with the Secretary of Education or the
Guarantee Agency, as the case may be and as required, to recover on such
defaulted Financed FFELP Loans within the time required by the Higher Education
Act and the requirements of the Guarantee Agency.

In the case of a claim for loss being denied by the Secretary of Education or
the Guarantee Agency, as the case may be, under circumstances resulting in a
Lender being required by a Student Loan Purchase Agreement to repurchase a
Financed FFELP Loan, take such action as shall be necessary to allow the Issuer
or the Trustee to cause such Lender to repurchase such Financed FFELP Loan or to
substitute a different Eligible Loan in accordance with the requirements of the

Loans in the event of natural disaster or the malfunction of any computer
systems.

disputes between a Borrower and such Eligible institution regarding tuition or
registration.

Any communication received by the Servicer which is in the nature of a

Financed FFELP Loans) and the Financed FFELP Loans.

The Servicer shall provide to the Issuer and the Trustee promptly after it
becomes available (and in no event later than 10 Business Days) a copy of each
such audit and any other audit or report required by the Secretary of Education,
any Guaranty Agency or other third party in connection with the Servicer's
activities in originating, acquiring and servicing the Financed FFELP Loans.

The Servicer shall provide to the Issuer and the Trustee copies of its annual
third party (SAS70) audit reports, if such reports are prepared, promptly
following the Servicer's receipt thereof.

The Servicer shall provide to the Issuer and the Trustee its annual financial
statements, audited by a firm of independent certified public accountants,
within one hundred twenty (120) days of the end of each fiscal year of the
Servicer; and its quarterly unaudited financial statements, within forty-five
(45) days of the end of each fiscal quarter of the Servicer.

If reports are not prepared and submitted under Section 9(c) hereof or if the
Trustee determines it is necessary as part of a request under Section 9(b)
hereof, upon the request of the Trustee or the Issuer, the Servicer shall
undergo an annual audit, examination and review conducted by a firm of
independent public accountants with experience in auditing student loan program
operations under the Higher Education Act, independently selected by the Issuer
(or the Trustee if the Issuer fails to make such selection), of its systems,
programs, procedures, services and operations to determine the Servicer's
compliance with this Agreement. If any such audit, examination and review shall
indicate to the Issuer or the Trustee that the Servicer is not in material
compliance with its obligations under this Agreement, this Agreement may be
terminated by the Issuer or the Trustee on the basis of Section 11(a)(3) hereof
(an audit, examination or review under this subsection, however, is not required
for a termination under Section 11(a)(3)).

The costs of audits and reports prepared under subsections (c) through (f) above
shall be paid by the Servicer.

Amendments; Benefits; Termination

. This Agreement (a) may be amended, supplemented or modified only by written
instrument duly executed by all parties hereto and only upon the receipt of a
written certificate from the Issuer and the Trustee that such amendment,
supplement or modification will not deprive any Holder of the Notes in any
material respect of the security afforded by this Agreement, (b) shall be
binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their
respective successors and assigns, and (c) except as provided in Section 11
hereof, may not be terminated (except for cause) or assigned by any party hereto
without the prior written consent of the other parties hereto; provided that the
Trustee may make an assignment to its successor as trustee under the Indenture
if the Trustee shall cease serving as trustee under the Indenture.

Termination

.

This Agreement shall terminate with respect to the Servicer (in the case of any
of the following events relating solely to the Servicer) or the Administrator
(in the case of any of the following events relating solely to the
Administrator) or both (in the case of any of the following events relating to
both the Servicer and the Administrator):

upon the expiration of the term stated in Section 1 hereof;

if the Servicer or the Administrator shall:

admit in writing its inability to pay its debts generally as they become due;

consent to the appointment of a custodian (as that term is defined in the
federal Bankruptcy Code) for or assignment to a custodian of the whole or any
substantial part of the property of the Servicer or the Administrator, as the

the date of entry thereof any order or decree entered by a court of competent
jurisdiction ordering such appointment or assignment;

commence any proceeding or file a petition under the provisions of the federal
Bankruptcy Code for liquidation, reorganization or adjustment of debts, or under
any insolvency law or other statute or law providing for the modification or
adjustment of the rights of creditors, or fail to stay, set aside or vacate
within sixty (60) days from the date of entry thereof any order or decree
entered by a court of competent jurisdiction pursuant to an involuntary

modification or adjustment of the rights of creditors; or

contest in writing the validity or enforceability of this Agreement as a whole
or deny in writing that this Agreement as a whole is binding upon the Servicer
or the Administrator, as the case may be;

upon written notice by the Issuer or the Trustee to the Servicer or the
Administrator, as applicable, if the Servicer or the Administrator materially
breaches its obligations, or any representation or warranty, under this
Agreement or upon written notice by the Issuer or the Trustee to the Servicer on
the basis of Section 9(f) hereof; or

upon written notice by the Issuer or the Trustee to the Servicer, if at any time
the Guarantee Agency or the Department of Education has issued a notice of
suspension or termination against the Servicer, or has suspended or terminated
the payment of all claims with respect to Financed FFELP Loans or, in the case
of the Department of Education, all Special Allowance Payments or interest
benefit payments with respect to Financed FFELP Loans as a result of actions or
omissions of the Servicer (it being understood that the cessation of less than
all such claims or payments may constitute a breach under Section 11(a)(3)
hereof).

Notwithstanding the foregoing, any termination pursuant to clauses (3) or (4) of
this subsection (a) will be subject to the following conditions. If such breach
under clause (3) or suspension or termination under clause (4) is capable of
being cured within ninety (90) days without, in the judgment of the Trustee,
adversely affecting the security provided to the Noteholders by the Financed
FFELP Loans and the related Guarantee payments, Special Allowance Payments and
interest subsidy payments, the Servicer or the Administrator, as the case may
be, shall have the right to cure such breach, within ninety (90) days of the
date the Servicer or the Administrator, as the case may be, learns of such
breach or receives notice of such breach from the Issuer or the Trustee, prior
to such termination. If such breach is not capable of being cured in the manner
specified above, no termination pursuant to clause (3) or (4) shall occur if, in
the judgment of the Trustee, such breach or suspension or termination will not
adversely affect the security provided the Noteholders by the Financed FFELP
Loans and any related Guarantee, Special Allowance Payments and interest subsidy
payments.

Each of the Servicer and the Administrator agrees to promptly notify the
Trustee, the Issuer and each Rating Agency of any occurrence or condition which
constitutes (or which with the passage of time or the giving of notice or both
would constitute) an event permitting the termination of this Agreement.

If this Agreement shall be terminated with respect to the Servicer under
subsection (a), or if any Financed FFELP Loan is sold or otherwise transferred
by the Trustee (for the account and on behalf of the Issuer) to another person,
then any Financed FFELP Loans then being serviced hereunder (or the particular
Financed FFELP Loans that are sold or otherwise transferred, as the case may be)
shall be transferred by the Servicer to a servicing system of the Issuer, the
Trustee or their designee and (i) the Servicer shall promptly provide the Issuer
and the Trustee with every reasonable and necessary assistance, including data
processing support, to timely transfer the Financed FFELP Loans and all
promissory notes and all records related to the Financed FFELP Loans (including
system records), together with all necessary or proper assignments, transfers
and documents of authority, and (ii) the actual documented costs and expenses of
such transfer and of the conversion by the replacement servicer of such Financed
FFELP Loans to such replacement servicing system shall be paid by the Servicer
if such termination is by the Issuer or the Trustee by reason of the occurrence
of an event described in Section 11(a)(2), (3) or (4). There shall be no
additional charge to the Issuer or the Trustee for the Servicer's handling of
assignments and transfers of Financed FFELP Loans in the ordinary course.

If this Agreement shall be terminated with respect to the Servicer or the
Administrator, or both, under subsection (a), the terminated party agrees that
it shall continue to perform all its obligations under this Agreement until a
successor servicer or administrator, as the case may be, has been appointed or
until otherwise directed in writing by the Trustee.

Disposition of Files on Termination

. Upon termination of this Agreement with respect to the Servicer or the
Administrator, all files and information held by the Servicer or the
Administrator, as the case may be, in connection herewith (including computer
information) will be turned over to the Issuer or its designee in such form
(which may include microfilm) as the Issuer may reasonably request, upon
reimbursement by the Issuer for reasonable costs, except as otherwise specified
in Section 11(b) above.

Servicer and Administrator Not Agents

. Neither the Servicer nor the Administrator is, nor shall they hold themselves
out to be, the agent of the Issuer or the Trustee except for the specific
limited purposes set forth in this Agreement. Except as set forth in this
Agreement, the Issuer and the Trustee may not direct the methods or means by
which the Servicer or the Administrator shall accomplish its duties under this
Agreement.

Maintenance of Records

.

The Servicer shall retain information and documentation pertaining to the
Financed FFELP Loans (including, but not limited to, the information and
documentation to be delivered to the Servicer in accordance with Section 3
hereof) which comes into the physical custody or possession of the Servicer as a
result of this Agreement or by the servicing of the Financed FFELP Loans by the
Servicer, unless and until the Trustee shall notify the Servicer in writing to
the contrary, whereupon such physical custody and possession shall be
transferred in the manner directed by the Trustee.

The Servicer shall maintain original documentation and system records for each
Financed FFELP Loan, segregated from any other loans or assets of the Servicer
or any other party and clearly labeled so as to identify the Financed FFELP
Loans as property of the Trustee (for the account and on behalf of the Issuer)
and as security for the Notes, provided that the Servicer may combine original
documentation and system records for each consolidated serial loan so long as
the Servicer does so in a manner which will ensure that each Financed FFELP Loan
comprising such a consolidated serial loan may be separately identified and
transferred or sold. The Servicer shall hold such documentation and records
subject to this Agreement and the Indenture. From time to time the Servicer
shall, upon request by the Trustee or the Issuer and the Trustee, submit such
information and take such action as may be reasonably required by the Trustee or
the Issuer and the Trustee, to assure that the Financed FFELP Loans are
maintained in a proper and secure condition.

Except as required by law and permitted by Section 6(t) hereof, the Servicer
shall maintain the confidentiality of the information provided hereunder and
shall not disclose or in any way communicate such information to third parties
without the express written consent of the Issuer and the Trustee. The Servicer
shall provide a proper security system for access to original documents and to
its computer system.

With respect to the original promissory note relating to each Financed FFELP
Loan held by the Servicer or its bailee, the obligations of the Servicer shall
be only to the Trustee during the time the Notes are Outstanding and the Issuer
shall have no authority during the time the Notes are Outstanding to direct the
Servicer in its activities with respect to such original promissory notes.

Notification to Borrowers

. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that each Student Loan Purchase
Agreement provides that the Lender which is a party thereto, and that each GOAL
Funding Transfer Agreement provides that GOAL Funding, shall, to the extent
required by the Higher Education Act and the Guarantee Program regulations,
notify, or cause to be notified, each Borrower under each Financed FFELP Loan of
the assignment and transfer to the Trustee (but for the account and on behalf of
the Issuer) of the Lender's or GOAL Funding's interest in such Financed FFELP
Loan and shall direct the Borrower to make all payments thereon directly to the
Servicer until otherwise notified by the Trustee. To the extent permitted by the
Higher Education Act and the Guarantee Program regulations, the Servicer may, on
behalf of the Issuer, waive this requirement of any Lender or (in the case of
Financed GOAL Funding FFELP Loans) GOAL Funding if the notice is sent by the
Servicer on behalf of such Lender or GOAL Funding.

Obligations to Forward Payments

. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that each Student Loan Purchase
Agreement provides that if the Lender which is a party thereto, and that each
GOAL Funding Transfer Agreement provides that if GOAL Funding, after any Loan
Purchase Date, is the recipient of any funds, from whatever source received,
which constitute payment of principal, interest or Special Allowance Payments
accrued with respect to any Financed FFELP Loan for any period subsequent to
such Loan Purchase Date, such Lender or GOAL Funding shall promptly remit, or
cause to be remitted, all such funds to the Servicer or in such manner as the
Trustee may otherwise direct. If any such funds shall be received by the Trustee
or by a person to whom the Trustee has directed such funds to be remitted, the
Trustee shall furnish the Servicer with prompt advice as to the receipt thereof.

Fees; No Petition

. Subject to the following paragraph, the Issuer shall pay, or shall cause the
Trustee to pay, from funds available for such purpose under the Indenture, to
the Servicer and the Administrator, for the performance of the Servicer's and
the Administrator's functions under this Agreement, a monthly fee in an amount
each month equal to 0.079167% of the outstanding principal balance of all
Financed FFELP Loans as of the first day of the immediately preceding month;
provided that the monthly fee payable on the first Monthly Payment Date will be
equal to .026389% of the outstanding principal balance of the Financed FFELP
Loans as of the Closing Date. Such fee shall be paid to the Servicer on a
monthly basis within five (5) days after each Monthly Payment Date and Quarterly
Payment Date and receipt by the Issuer and the Trustee of an itemized written
monthly billing statement from the Servicer. The Servicer shall promptly remit
to the Administrator its allocable portion (equal to 15%) of such fee. If the
Servicer or the Administrator believes that it is necessary to increase the
monthly fee payable hereunder, it shall provide a written request to the Issuer
and the Trustee of its need for an increase in such fee, together with all
information required under the Indenture for the Trustee to approve an increase
in the fees payable hereunder. Each of the Servicer and the Administrator
acknowledges that such fee shall not be increased unless the conditions for
increasing such fee under the Indenture have been satisfied.

Each of the Servicer and the Administrator acknowledges that the Issuer and the
Trustee contemplate paying all fees payable under this Agreement solely from
funds available for such purpose in the Collection Account created under the
Indenture, which funds are primarily dependent upon collection by the Servicer
and receipt by the Trustee of payments with respect to the Financed FFELP Loans.
Each of the Servicer and the Administrator covenants and agrees to continue to
be bound by the terms and provisions of this Agreement relating to the Financed
FFELP Loans in all respects, and to perform for a period of one hundred twenty
(120) days its obligations hereunder, regardless of the receipt or non-receipt
on a timely basis by it of any payments in respect of fees under this Agreement.

Each of the Servicer and the Administrator, by entering into this Agreement,
covenants and agrees that it will not at any time institute against the Issuer,
or join in any institution against the Issuer of, any bankruptcy,
reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings, or other
proceedings under any United States Federal or state bankruptcy or similar law
in connection with any obligation relating to this Agreement.

Cooperation

hereto to facilitate the transactions contemplated hereunder and by the Student
Loan Purchase Agreements and the Indenture.

of which is included as Schedule 1 thereto. The Servicer also shall prepare for

The Issuer, the Trustee and the Administrator agree that the Administrator

agreements relating thereto. The Administrator shall prepare, or shall cause the
preparation by other appropriate persons of, all such documents, reports,
filings, instruments, certificates and opinions (other than those to be prepared
by the Servicer as part of its responsibilities under this Agreement) as it
shall be the duty of the Issuer to prepare, file or deliver pursuant to the
Indenture. In furtherance of the foregoing, the Administrator shall take all
appropriate action, including but not limited to, the following:

preparing and delivering to the Trustee any agreements with respect to notice
provisions; and

taking such actions as may be required of the Issuer under any agreement between
the Issuer and other parties relating to the Indenture.

The Servicer, on behalf of itself and on behalf of the Issuer, as the case may
be, shall provide all notices and perform all other activities required of the
Servicer or of the Issuer to comply with the requirements of the
Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act and regulations promulgated thereunder in connection with
the origination, acquisition, holding and servicing of the Financed FFELP Loans
and in connection with otherwise performing services hereunder.

Servicer as Bailee

.

The Servicer, in holding Loan Documents relating to the Financed FFELP Loans,
holds such Loan Documents as bailee for and on behalf of the Trustee.

No Loan Documents held by the Servicer on behalf of the Trustee hereunder shall
be released or delivered to the Issuer or any other person (other than claim
filings in the ordinary course with the Guaranty Agencies and sales or transfers
permitted under the Indenture) without the prior written consent of the Trustee.

The Servicer shall maintain all Loan Documents in a manner which clearly
identifies them as being held by the Servicer as bailee for and on behalf of the
Trustee and not for or on behalf of the Issuer or any other person.

No assignment or purported assignment by the Issuer or any other person (other
than the Trustee) of any Loan Documents held by the Servicer on behalf of the
Trustee hereunder shall be recognized by the Servicer, and the Servicer shall
provide immediate notice to the Trustee upon receiving notice of any such
assignment or purported assignment.

The Servicer hereby represents, warrants and acknowledges that the Servicer, in
serving as bailee under this Section, is acting exclusively as the bailee and
agent of the Trustee, and not of the Issuer or any other person, with respect to
the Loan Documents.

The Servicer hereby waives any lien which the Servicer might have pursuant to
statute or otherwise available at law or in equity on the Financed FFELP Loans
and the Loan Documents held by the Servicer on behalf of the Trustee hereunder,
including all monies and proceeds derived therefrom or relating thereto.

Indemnification

. The Servicer and the Administrator shall each indemnify and hold harmless the
Issuer and the Trustee from and against any loss, cost, damage or expense,
including reasonable attorney's fees, to the extent that such loss, cost, damage
or expense arises out of the failure of the Servicer or the Administrator, as
the case may be, to perform its obligations under this Agreement. In addition,
and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Servicer and the
Administrator shall each defend and indemnify the Issuer and the Trustee
against, and hold each harmless from, all claims, losses, liabilities and
expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising from or in connection
with:

any claim of infringement of any patent, trade secret, copyright, trademark,
service mark, trade name or other proprietary right alleged to have occurred as
a result of the performance of services hereunder by the Servicer or the
Administrator, as the case may be; or

any claim by an employee of the Servicer or the Administrator, as the case may
be, arising in consequence of, or relating to, the employee's employment by the
Servicer or the Administrator, as applicable.

Miscellaneous

Any material written communication received at any time by the Issuer or the
Trustee with respect to a Financed FFELP Loan or the Borrower under such a
Financed FFELP Loan shall be immediately transmitted by the Issuer or the
Trustee, as the case may be, to the Servicer. Such communications shall include,
but not be limited to, letters, notices of death or disability, adjudications of
bankruptcy and like documents, and forms requesting forbearance, deferment of
repayment or loan cancellations.

This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of South Dakota.

All covenants and agreements herein contained shall extend to and be obligatory
upon all successors and assigns of the respective parties hereto.

This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall
be deemed an original and all of which shall be deemed to constitute but one and
the same instrument.

If any provisions of this Agreement shall be held, or deemed to be, or shall, in
fact, be inoperative or unenforceable as applied in any particular situation,
such circumstance shall not have the effect of rendering any other provision or
provisions herein contained invalid, inoperative or unenforceable to any extent
whatsoever. The invalidity of any one or more phrases, sentences, clauses or
paragraphs herein contained shall not affect the remaining portions of this
Agreement or any part hereof.

All notices, requests, demands or other instruments which may or are required to
be given by any party to another party, shall be in writing, and each shall be
deemed to have been properly given when served personally on an officer of the

This Agreement may not be terminated by any party hereto except in the manner
and with the effect herein specifically provided.

Time is of the essence in this Agreement.

No remedy by the terms of this Agreement conferred upon or reserved to the
Trustee or the Issuer is intended to be exclusive of any other remedy, but each
and every such remedy shall be cumulative and in addition to every other remedy
given under this Agreement or existing at law or in equity or by statute on or
after the date of this Agreement, including, without limitation, the right to
such equitable relief by way of injunction, mandatory or prohibitory, to prevent
the breach or threatened breach of any of the provisions of this Agreement or to
enforce the performance hereof.

This Agreement has been made and entered into not only for the benefit of the
Issuer, the Trustee, the Servicer and the Administrator, but also for the
benefit of all Noteholders, and its provisions may be enforced not only by the
parties to this Agreement but also by each Noteholder in the manner and to the
extent such Noteholders may enforce provisions of the Indenture. The Servicer
specifically acknowledges the rights of the Trustee pursuant to Section 7.3 of
the Indenture.

Any information required by this Agreement to be provided by the Servicer with
respect to a Financed FFELP Loan may in the case of Financed FFELP Loans that
have been consolidated be provided with respect to a consolidated Financed FFELP
Loan, provided that such information at a minimum meets the requirements of the
Secretary of Education and the Guarantee Agency, as the case may be, for the
collection by the Trustee of interest subsidy payments, Special Allowance
Payments, and claim payments, and provides sufficient information as requested
by the Issuer to enable the Issuer to comply with any arbitrage requirements
under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the regulations
thereunder.

SLFC specifically acknowledges that the Issuer will be making representations
and warranties regarding the FFELP Loans to be Financed as part of the proposed
public offering of the Notes based in part on the accuracy of SLFC's and
warranties in this Agreement. SLFC agrees to cooperate with the Issuer and to
furnish all information in its possession appropriate for inclusion in the
Issuer's Prospectus. SLFC agrees to indemnify and save the Trustee, the Issuer
and the underwriters for the Notes harmless of, from and against any and all
loss, cost, damage or expense, including reasonable attorneys' fees, incurred by
reason of any breach of SLFC's warranties or representations hereunder or any
false or misleading representations of SLFC or any failure to disclose any
matter which makes the warranties and representations herein misleading or any
inaccuracy in any information furnished by SLFC in connection herewith.

It is hereby acknowledged and agreed that the Trustee will be serving as
"Eligible Lender Trustee" under the Indenture and that (i) legal title to all
Financed FFELP Loans constituting FFELP Loans will, pursuant to the applicable
FFELP Loan Purchase Agreement, be transferred to the Trustee in such capacity
for the benefit of the Issuer, and (ii) upon such transfer, the Trustee will be
the legal owner and the Issuer will be the beneficial owner of such FFELP Loans.

Indemnification with respect to Prior Servicing

. Pursuant to the GOAL Funding Transfer Agreements entered into at the time of
issuance of the Notes, the Issuer and the Trustee have purchased or will
purchase student loans described therein (the "Initially Transferred FFELP
Loans") from GOAL Funding and the GOAL Funding Trustee, which Initially
Transferred FFELP Loans were, prior to such purchase, serviced by the Servicer,
as GOAL Funding Servicer, under the GOAL Funding Servicing Agreements. Pursuant
to other GOAL Funding Transfer Agreements to be entered into, the Issuer and the
Trustee will purchase student loans described therein (the "Subsequent
Transferred FFELP Loans") from GOAL Funding and the GOAL Funding Trustee, which
Subsequent Transferred FFELP Loans will, prior to such purchase, have been
serviced by the Servicer, as GOAL Funding Servicer, under the GOAL Funding
Servicing Agreements. The Servicer hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless
the Issuer and the Trustee from and against any loss, cost, damage or expense,
including reasonable attorney's fees, to the extent that such loss, cost, damage
or expense arises out of the failure of the Servicer to have performed its
obligations under the GOAL Funding Servicing Agreement
.
