        otherwise disbursed in accordance with section 428G.
    ``(b) Withdrawal and Termination Procedures.--The Secretary shall 
establish procedures by which eligible lenders may withdraw or be 
terminated from the program under this part.
    ``(c) Submission of Statements by Holders on Amount of Payment.--
Each holder of an eligible loan under this part, with respect to which 
payments of interest are required to be made by the Secretary, shall 
submit to the Secretary, at such time or times and in such manner as 
the Secretary may prescribe, statements containing such information as 
may be required by or pursuant to regulation for the purpose of 
enabling the Secretary to determine the amount of the payment which the 
Secretary must make with respect to that loan.

``SEC. 499A-4. PAYMENT OF LOAN GUARANTEE FOR DEFAULTED LOANS.

    ``(a) Notice to Secretary and Payment of Loss.--Upon default by the 
student borrower on any eligible loan under this part, and prior to the 
commencement of suit or other enforcement proceedings upon security for 
that loan, the insurance beneficiary shall promptly notify the 
Secretary, and the Secretary shall if requested (at that time or after 
further collection efforts) by the beneficiary, or may on the 
Secretary's own motion, if the insurance is still in effect, pay to the 
beneficiary 96 percent of the amount of the loss sustained by the 
insured upon that loan as soon as that amount has been determined.
    ``(b) Amount of Loss.--The `amount of the loss' on any loan shall, 
for the purposes of this subsection and subsection (e), be deemed to be 
an amount equal to the unpaid balance of the principal amount and 
accrued interest, including interest accruing from the date of 
submission of a valid default claim (as determined by the Secretary) to 
the date on which payment is authorized by the Secretary, except that 
such amount may be reduced based on default rate in a manner similar to 
the reductions described in section 425(b).
    ``(c) Due Diligence.--Such beneficiary shall be required to meet 
the standards of due diligence in the collection of the loan and shall 
be required to submit proof that the institution was contacted and 
other reasonable attempts were made to locate the borrower (when the 
location of the borrower is unknown) and proof that contact was made 
with the borrower (when the location is known).
    ``(d) Timing of Determination.--The Secretary shall make the 
determination required to carry out the provisions of this section not 
later than 90 days after the notification by the insurance beneficiary 
and shall make payment in full on the amount of the beneficiary's loss 
pending completion of the due diligence investigation.
    ``(e) Effect of Payment of Loss.--Upon payment of the amount of the 
loss pursuant to subsection (a), the United States shall be subrogated 
for all of the rights of the holder of the obligation upon the insured 
loan and shall be entitled to an assignment of the note or other 
evidence of the insured loan by the insurance beneficiary. The 
Secretary may, in attempting to make recovery on such loans, contract 
with private business concerns, State student loan insurance agencies, 
or State guaranty agencies, for payment for services rendered by such 
concerns or agencies in assisting the Secretary in making such 
recovery. Any contract under this subsection entered into by the 
Secretary shall provide that attempts to make recovery on such loans 
shall be fair and reasonable, and do not involve harassment, 
intimidation, false or misleading representations, or unnecessary 
communications concerning the existence of any such loan to persons 
other than the student borrower.
    ``(f) Forbearance Not Precluded.--Nothing in this section or in 
this part shall be construed to preclude any forbearance for the 
benefit of the student borrower which may be agreed upon by the parties 
to the insured loan and approved by the Secretary, or to preclude 
forbearance by the Secretary in the enforcement of the insured 
obligation after payment on that insurance. Any forbearance which is 
approved by the Secretary under this subsection with respect to the 
repayment of a loan, including a forbearance during default, shall not 
be considered as indicating that a holder of a federally insured loan 
has failed to exercise reasonable care and due diligence in the 
collection of the loan.
    ``(g) Care and Diligence Required of Holders.--Nothing in this 
section or in this part shall be construed to excuse the holder of a 
federally insured loan from exercising reasonable care and diligence in 
the making and collection of loans under the provisions of this part. 
If the Secretary, after a reasonable notice and opportunity for hearing 
to an eligible lender, finds that it has substantially failed to 
exercise such care and diligence or to make the reports and statements 
required under section 499A-3(c), the Secretary shall disqualify that 
lender for further Federal insurance on loans granted pursuant to this 
part until the Secretary is satisfied that its failure has ceased and 
finds that there is reasonable assurance that the lender will in the 
future exercise necessary care and diligence or comply with such 
requirements, as the case may be.
    ``(h) Reports to Consumer Reporting Agencies and Institutions of 
Higher Education.--For the purpose of promoting responsible repayment 
of loans under this part, the Secretary and each eligible lender and 
subsequent holder shall enter into an agreement with each consumer 
reporting agency to exchange information concerning student borrowers 
in the same manner as such agreements are made under section 430A.

``SEC. 499A-5. PURCHASE OF LOANS SOLD IN SECONDARY MARKET.

    ``(a) In General.--Loans under this part may be sold in the 
secondary market to another eligible lender.
    ``(b) Servicing and Liquidation.--When an eligible lender has sold 
the guaranteed portion of a loan in the secondary market, the loan 
holder must perform all necessary servicing and liquidation actions for 
such loan.
    ``(c) Status Report.--In the event that the Secretary purchases its 
guaranteed portion of such a loan from the holder of the loan, the loan 
holder shall provide the Secretary with a loan status report within 15 
business days of such purchase. This report shall include a status 
report on the borrower and plans for any type of loan workout or loan 
restructuring. The report shall accompany requested documentation that 
the Secretary determines is sufficient to be able to review the loan 
holder's administration of the loan. Failure to provide requested 
documentation to the Secretary may lead to initiation of an action for 
recovery from the loan holder of all or some of the amounts the 
Secretary paid to the holder of the loan on a guarantee.
    ``(d) Further Evaluation.--The Secretary shall evaluate the 
eligible lender's continued participation in the secondary market and 
may restrict further sale of guaranteed portions into the secondary 
market until the Secretary determines that the eligible lender has 
provided sufficient documentation for purchases.

``SEC. 499A-6. DEFAULT REDUCTION PROGRAM.

    ``(a) Other Repayment Incentives.--
            ``(1) Sale or assignment of loan.--
                    ``(A) In general.--The Secretary, upon securing 9 
                payments made within 20 days of the due date during 10 
                consecutive months of amounts owed on a loan for which 
                the Secretary has made a payment under this section, 
                shall, if practicable, sell the loan to another 
                eligible lender.
                    ``(B) Monthly payments.--The Secretary shall not 
                demand from a borrower as monthly payment amounts 
                described in subparagraph (A) more than is reasonable 
                and affordable based on the borrower's total financial 
                circumstances, except such monthly payment amount shall 
                not be less than $5.
                    ``(C) Consumer reporting agencies.--Upon the sale 
                or assignment of the loan, the Secretary shall request 
                any consumer reporting agency to which the Secretary or 
                holder, as applicable, reported the default of the 
                loan, to remove the record of the default from the 
                borrower's credit history.
                    ``(D) Eligible lender limitation.--A loan shall not 
                be sold to an eligible lender under subparagraph (A) if 
                such lender has been found by the Secretary to have 
                substantially failed to exercise the due diligence 
                required of lenders under this part.
                    ``(E) Default due to error.--A loan that does not 
                meet the requirements of subparagraph (A) may also be 
                eligible for sale or assignment under this paragraph 
                upon a determination that the loan was in default due 
                to clerical or data processing error and would not, in 
                the absence of such error, be in a delinquent status.
            ``(2) Borrower eligibility.--Any borrower whose loan is 
        sold under paragraph (1)(A) shall not be precluded by section 
        484 from receiving additional loans or grants under this title 
        (for which he or she is otherwise eligible) on the basis of 
        defaulting on the loan prior to such loan sale.
            ``(3) Applicability of general loan conditions.--A loan 
        that is sold under paragraph (1)(A) shall, so long as the 
        borrower continues to make scheduled repayments thereon, be 
        subject to the same terms and conditions and qualify for the 
        same benefits and privileges as other loans made under this 
        part.
            ``(4) Limitation.--A borrower may obtain the benefits 
        available under this subsection with respect to rehabilitating 
        a loan (whether by loan sale or assignment) not more than 2 
        times per loan.
    ``(b) Satisfactory Repayment Arrangements To Renew Eligibility.--
The Secretary shall establish a program which allows a borrower with a 
defaulted loan or loans to renew eligibility for all title IV student 
financial assistance (regardless of whether the defaulted loan has been 
sold to an eligible lender or assigned to the Secretary) upon the 
borrower's payment of 6 consecutive monthly payments. The loan holder 
shall not demand from a borrower as a monthly payment amount under this 
subsection more than is reasonable and affordable based upon the 
borrower's total financial circumstances. A borrower may only obtain 
the benefit of this subsection with respect to renewed eligibility 
once.
    ``(c) Financial and Economic Literacy.--Each program described in 
subsection (b) shall include making available financial and economic 
education materials for a borrower who has rehabilitated a loan.
