                  AND USE OF PROCEEDS OF SERIES 2002-1 NOTES

            Section 2.01 Series 2002-1 Note Details. The aggregate principal
amount of the Series 2002-1 Notes which may be initially authenticated and
delivered under this Supplemental Indenture is limited to, and shall be
individually issued in six (6) separate classes consisting of $59,825,000 of

Class R-1 Notes, except for Series 2002-1 Notes authenticated and delivered upon
transfer of, or in exchange for, or in lieu of Notes pursuant to Sections 1.03
and 1.04 of the Indenture. The Series 2002-1 Notes shall be issuable only as
fully registered notes in the Authorized Denominations. The Series 2002-1 Notes
of each class shall each be lettered "A" and shall be numbered separately from 1
upwards, respectively.

            The Class A Notes and Class B Notes (collectively, the "Auction Rate
Securities") shall be dated their Date of Issuance and shall bear interest from
their Date of Issuance, payable on each Payment Date (as defined in Appendix A
to this Supplemental Indenture), except that Auction Rate Securities which are
issued upon transfer, exchange or other replacement shall bear interest from the
most recent Payment Date to which interest has been paid, or if no interest has
been paid, from the date of the Auction Rate Securities. The Class A Notes and
Class B Notes shall mature on December 1, 2035. Interest on the Auction Rate
Securities shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year and actual days
elapsed. The terms of and definitions related to the Auction Rate Securities are
found in Article I hereof and Appendix A to this Supplemental Indenture. No
premium payments shall be paid on the Class A Notes or Class B Notes issued
under this Supplemental Indenture.

            The Class R-1 Note shall mature on December 1, 2042 and shall bear
interest at the Commercial Paper Rate (90-day) plus 0.85%, adjusted on the first
Business Day of each calendar quarter. Interest on the Class R-1 Note shall
accrue from the Closing Date, capitalize on each June 1 and December 1, but
shall be payable on each June 1 and December 1, commencing December 1, 2002 only
if, after giving effect to such payments, the ratio of the Value of the Trust
Estate to the Value of the Outstanding Notes (excluding the Residual Notes) then
Outstanding exceeds 100.5%, or such other percentage that satisfies the Rating
Agency Condition.

            The principal of the Series 2002-1 Notes due at its Stated Maturity
or redemption in whole shall be payable at the Corporate Trust Office of the
Indenture Trustee, or such other location as directed by the Indenture Trustee,
or at the principal office of its successor in trust upon presentation and
surrender of the Series 2002-1 Notes. Payment of interest and principal paid
subject to a redemption on any Series 2002-1 Note shall be made to the
Noteholder thereof by check or draft mailed on the Payment Date by the Indenture
Trustee to the Noteholder at his address as it last appears on the registration
books kept by the Indenture Trustee at the close of business on the Record Date
for such Payment Date, but any such interest not so timely paid or duly provided
for shall cease to be payable to the Noteholder thereof at the close of business
on the Record Date and shall be payable to the Noteholder thereof at the close
of business on a special record date (a "Special Record Date") for the payment
of any such defaulted interest. Such Special Record Date shall be fixed by the
Indenture Trustee whenever moneys become available for payment of the defaulted
interest, and notice of such Special Record Date shall be given to the
Noteholders of the Series 2002-1 Notes not less than ten (10) days prior thereto
by first-class mail to each such Noteholder as shown on the Indenture Trustee's
registration books on the date selected by the Indenture Trustee, stating the
date of the Special Record Date and the date fixed for the payment of such
defaulted interest. Payment of interest to the Securities Depository or its
nominee shall, and at the written request addressed to the Indenture Trustee of
any other Noteholder owning at least $1,000,000 principal amount of the Series
2002-1 Notes, payments of interest shall, be paid by wire transfer within the
United States to the bank account number filed no later than the Record Date or
Special Record Date with the Indenture Trustee for such purpose. All payments on
the Series 2002-1 Notes shall be made in lawful money of the United States of
America.

            (a) Except as otherwise provided in this Section, the Class A Notes
and Class B Notes in the form of one global note for each Stated Maturity date
shall be registered in the name of the Securities Depository or its nominee and
ownership thereof shall be maintained in book-entry form by the Securities
Depository for the account of the Agent Members. Initially, each Class A Note
and Class B Note shall be registered in the name of CEDE & CO., as the nominee
of The Depository Trust Company. Except as provided in subsection (d) of this
Section, the Class A Notes and Class B Notes may be transferred, in whole but
not in part, only to the Securities Depository or a nominee of the Securities
Depository or to a successor Securities Depository selected or approved by the
Issuer or to a nominee of such successor Securities Depository. Each global note
shall bear a legend substantially to the following effect: "Except as otherwise
provided in the Indenture, this global note may be transferred, in whole but not
in part, only to another nominee of the Securities Depository (as defined in the
Indenture) or to a successor Securities Depository or to a nominee of a
successor Securities Depository."

            (b) Except as otherwise provided herein, the Issuer and the
Indenture Trustee shall have no responsibility or obligation with respect to (i)
the accuracy of the records of the Securities Depository or any Agent Member
with respect to any beneficial ownership interest in the Class A Notes and Class
B Notes, (ii) the delivery to any Agent Member, beneficial owner of the Class A
Notes and Class B Notes or other Person, other than the Securities Depository,
of any notice with respect to the Class A Notes and Class B Notes or (iii) the
payment to any Agent Member, beneficial owner of the Class A Notes and Class B
Notes or other Person, other than the Securities Depository, of any amount with
respect to the principal of or interest on the Class A Notes and Class B Notes.
So long as the certificates for the Class A Notes and Class B Notes issued under
this Supplemental Indenture are not issued pursuant to subsection (c) of this
Section the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee may treat the Securities Depository
as, and deem the Securities Depository to be, the absolute owner of the Class A
Notes and Class B Notes for all purposes whatsoever, including, without
limitation, (A) the payment of principal of and interest on such Class A Notes
and Class B Notes, (B) giving notices of redemption and other matters with
respect to such Class A Notes and Class B Notes and (C) registering transfers
with respect to such Class A Notes and Class B Notes. In connection with any
notice or other communication to be provided to the Noteholders pursuant to this
Supplemental Indenture by the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee with respect to
any consent or other action to be taken by the Noteholders, the Issuer or the
Indenture Trustee, as the case may be, shall establish a record date for such
consent or other action and, if the Securities Depository shall hold all of the
Class A Notes and Class B Notes, give the Securities Depository notice of such
record date not less than 15 calendar days in advance of such record date to the
extent possible. Such notice to the Securities Depository shall be given only
when the Securities Depository is the sole Noteholder.

            (c) If at any time the Securities Depository notifies the Issuer and
the Indenture Trustee that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Securities
Depository with respect to any or all of the Class A Notes and Class B Notes or
if at any time the Securities Depository shall no longer be registered or in
good standing under the Securities Exchange Act or other applicable statute or
regulation and a successor Securities Depository is not appointed by the Issuer
within 90 days after the Issuer receives notice or becomes aware of such
condition, as the case may be, subsections (a) and (b) of this Section shall no
longer be applicable and the Issuer shall execute and the Indenture Trustee
shall authenticate and deliver certificates representing the Class A Notes and
Class B Notes as provided below. In addition, the Issuer may determine at any
time that the Class A Notes and Class B Notes shall no longer be represented by
global certificates and that the provisions of subsections (a) and (b) of this
Section shall no longer apply to the Class A Notes and Class B Notes. In such
event, the Issuer shall execute and the Indenture Trustee shall authenticate and
deliver certificates representing the Class A Notes and Class B Notes as
provided below. Certificates for the Class A Notes and Class B Notes issued in
exchange for a global certificate pursuant to this subsection shall be
registered in such names and authorized denominations as the Securities
Depository, pursuant to instructions from the Agent Members or otherwise, shall
instruct in writing to the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee, and upon which
written instructions the Indenture Trustee may rely without investigation. The
Indenture Trustee shall promptly deliver such certificates representing the
Class A Notes and Class B Notes to the Persons in whose names such Notes are so
registered.



            Section 2.02 Redemption of the Series 2002-1 Notes.

            (a)   Mandatory Redemption.

            (i) Mandatory Redemption of Class A Notes and Class B Notes. Subject
      to the provisions of Section 2.02(c), as long as any Class A Notes and
      Class B Notes remain Outstanding, Senior Notes, Subordinate Notes and
      Junior-Subordinate Notes are subject to mandatory redemption, in whole or
      in part, at a redemption price equal to the principal balance being
      redeemed plus accrued interest to the date fixed for redemption (A) on the
      Payment Date designated by the Issuer in an Issuer Order no earlier than
      June 26, 2002, from amounts remaining in the Acquisition Fund, (B) on any
      Payment Date from amounts on deposit in the Revenue Fund representing
      collections of principal payments on the Financed Student Loans as
      specified in the Servicer Report received by the Indenture Trustee with
      respect to such Payment Date and (C) on any Payment Date that the Value of
      the Financed Student Loans is less than 100.5% of the Value of the Senior
      Notes and Subordinate Notes then Outstanding as specified in the Servicer
      Report received by the Indenture Trustee with respect to such Payment Date
      (or such other ratio as specified by the Issuer in a notice to the
      Indenture Trustee accompanied by a Rating Agency Confirmation), from
      interest payments on the Financed Student Loans remaining in the Revenue
      Fund after all other required payments have been made. Notwithstanding the
      forgoing provisions of this Section 2.02(a)(i), the Issuer may, by Issuer
      Order, delay any such redemption for purposes of balancing or otherwise
      adjusting the principal balance of the Notes Outstanding among the classes
      and series of Notes.

            (ii) Mandatory Redemption of Residual Notes. As long as the Class
      R-1 Note remains outstanding, the Residual Notes are subject to mandatory
      redemption, in whole or in part at a redemption price equal to the
      principal balance being redeemed plus accrued interest to the date fixed
      for redemption (A) on any Payment Date when no Senior Notes, Subordinate
      Notes or Junior-Subordinate Notes are Outstanding from amounts on deposit
      in the Revenue Fund representing collections of principal payments on the
      Financed Student Loans as specified in the Servicer Report received by the
      Indenture Trustee with respect to such Payment Date and (B) to the extent
      that, after such redemption the Value of the Financed Student Loans is not
      less than the 100.5% of the Value of the Senior Notes and Subordinate
      Notes then Outstanding as specified in the Servicer Report received by the
      Indenture Trustee with respect to such Payment Date (or such other ratio
      as specified by the Issuer in a notice to the Indenture Trustee
      accompanied by a Rating Agency Confirmation), from interest payments on
      the Financed Student Loans remaining in the Revenue Fund after all other
      required payments have been made.

            (b) Optional Redemptions and Optional Purchase.

            (i) Optional Redemption of Series 2002-1 Notes. Subject to the
      provisions of Section 2.02(c), the Series 2002-1 Notes are subject to
      redemption pursuant to Section 4.03(b)(x) of the Indenture at a redemption
      price equal to the principal balance being redeemed plus accrued interest
      to the date fixed for redemption, from funds received by the Indenture
      Trustee constituting interest on the Financed Student Loans remaining in
      the Revenue Fund after all other prior required payments have been made
      and not required for mandatory redemptions.

            (ii) Optional Redemption or Purchase of Series 2002-1 Notes. Subject
      to the provisions of Section 2.02(c), the Series 2002-1 Notes are subject
      to redemption or purchase at the option of the Issuer exercised by an
      Issuer Order, in whole only, on any Payment Date on which the aggregate
      current principal balance of all the Notes issued under the Indenture
      (excluding the Residual Notes) is less than or equal to 10% of the initial
      aggregate principal balance of all the Notes issued under the Indenture
      (excluding the Residual Notes) on their respective date of issuance, at a
      redemption price equal to the principal balance plus accrued interest to
      the date fixed for redemption, from the proceeds of funds received by the
      Indenture Trustee for such purpose and deposited in the Revenue Fund. On
      the Payment Date fixed for redemption or purchase in such Issuer Order
      (which Issuer Order shall be received by the Indenture Trustee not less
      then 16 days prior to such redemption), the Issuer shall deposit or cause
      to be deposited in the Revenue Fund an amount sufficient to redeem all of
      the Notes pursuant to Section 4.03 of the Indenture, less amounts on
      deposit in the Reserve Fund. On such redemption date the Indenture Trustee
      shall transfer amounts in the Reserve Fund to the Revenue Fund and effect
      the redemption of all the Notes.

            (iii) Notice of Redemption and Purchase. The Indenture Trustee shall
      cause notice of any redemption or purchase to be given by mailing a copy
      of the notice by first-class mail to the Noteholder of any Series 2002-1
      Notes, and the Auction Agent, designated for redemption or purchase in
      whole or in part, at their address as the same shall last appear upon the
      registration books, in each case not less than 12 days prior to the
      redemption or purchase date; provided, however, that failure to give such
      notice, or any defect therein, shall not affect the validity of any
      proceedings for the redemption or purchase date of such Series 2002-1
      Notes for which no such failure or defect occurs.

            (c) Partial Redemption.

            (i) If less than all of the Series 2002-1 Notes are to be redeemed

                                   ARTICLE II

                               TERMS AND ISSUANCE

            Section 2.01 Auction Rate and Carry-Over Amounts. During the Initial
Period, each Class of Auction Rate Securities shall bear interest at the Initial
Rate for such Class. Thereafter, and except with respect to an Auction Period
Adjustment, the Auction Rate Securities shall bear interest at an Auction Note
Interest Rate based on a 28-day Auction Period for the Auction Rate Securities,
as determined pursuant to this Section 2.01 and Section 2.02 of this Appendix A.

            For the Auction Rate Securities during the Initial Period and each
Auction Period thereafter, interest at the applicable Auction Rate Securities
Interest Rate shall accrue daily and shall be computed for the actual number of
days elapsed on the basis of a year consisting of 360 days.

            The Auction Note Interest Rate to be borne by the Auction Rate
Securities after such Initial Period for each Auction Period until an Auction
Period Adjustment, if any, shall be determined as described below. Each such
Auction Period after the Initial Period shall commence on and include the day
following the expiration of the immediately preceding Auction Period and
terminate on and include the third Business Day of the following fourth week in
the case of the Class A-1 Notes, the Class A-2 Notes, the Class A-3 Notes, the
Class A-4 Notes and the Class B-1 Notes; provided, however, that in the case of
the Auction Period that immediately follows the Initial Period for the Auction
Rate Securities, such Auction Period shall commence on the Initial Rate
Adjustment Date. The Auction Note Interest Rate of the Auction Rate Securities
for each Auction Period shall be the Auction Rate in effect for such Auction
Period as determined in accordance with Section 2.02(a) of this Appendix A;
provided that if, on any Interest Rate Determination Date, an Auction is not
held for any reason, then the Auction Note Interest Rate on such Auction Rate
Securities for the next succeeding Auction Period shall be the applicable Cap
Rate.

            Notwithstanding the foregoing:

            (a) if the ownership of an Auction Rate Security is no longer
      maintained in Book-entry Form, the Auction Note Interest Rate on the
      Auction Rate Securities for any Interest Period commencing after the
      delivery of certificates representing Auction Rate Securities pursuant to
      this Supplemental Indenture shall equal the Cap Rate; or

            (b) if a Payment Default shall have occurred, the Auction Note
      Interest Rate on the Auction Rate Securities 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 applicable Non-Payment Rate on
      the first day of each such Interest Period.

            In accordance with Section 2.02(a)(iii)(B) and (C) of this Appendix
A, the Auction Agent shall promptly give written notice to the Indenture Trustee
and the Issuer of each Auction Note Interest Rate (unless the Auction Note
Interest Rate is the applicable Non-Payment Rate) and the Maximum Rate when such
rate is not the Auction Note Interest Rate, applicable to the Auction Rate
Securities. The Indenture Trustee shall, upon request, notify the Noteholders
and the Issuer of Auction Rate Securities of the applicable Auction Note
Interest Rate applicable to such Auction Rate Securities for each Auction Period
not later than the third Business Day of such Auction Period. Notwithstanding
any other provision of the Auction Rate Securities or this Supplemental
Indenture and except for the occurrence of a Payment Default, interest payable
on the Auction Rate Securities for an Auction Period shall never exceed for such
Auction Period the amount of interest payable at the applicable Maximum Rate in
effect for such Auction Period.

            If the Auction Rate for the Auction Rate Securities is greater than
the Net Loan Rate, then the Variable Rate applicable to such Auction Rate
Securities for that Interest Period will be the Net Loan Rate and the Issuer
shall determine the Carry-over Amount, if any, with respect to such Auction Rate
Securities for such interest period.

            Such Carry-over Amount shall bear interest calculated at a rate
equal to One-Month LIBOR (as determined by the Issuer, provided the Indenture
Trustee has received notice of One-Month LIBOR from the Issuer, and if the
Indenture Trustee shall not have received such notice from the Issuer, then as
determined by the Indenture Trustee) from the 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, second, in reduction of such Carry-over
Amount. For purposes of this Supplemental Indenture and this Appendix A, any
reference to "principal" or "interest" herein shall not include within the
meaning of such words Carry-over Amount or any interest accrued on any such
Carry-over Amount. Such Carry-over Amount shall be separately calculated for
each Auction Rate Security by the Issuer during such Interest Period in
sufficient time for the Indenture Trustee to give notice to each Noteholder of
such Carry-over Amount as required in the next succeeding sentence. Not less
than four days before the Payment Date for an Interest Period with respect to
which such Carry-over Amount has been calculated by the Issuer, the Indenture
Trustee shall give written notice to each Noteholder the Auction Agent and the
Issuer, in the form provided by the Issuer, of the Carry-over Amount applicable
to each Auction Rate Security, which written notice may accompany the payment of
interest made to the Noteholder on such Payment Date. Such notice shall state,
in addition to such Carry-over Amount, that, unless and until an Auction Rate
Security has been redeemed (other than by optional redemption), after which all
accrued Carry-over Amounts (and all accrued interest thereon) that remains
unpaid shall be canceled and no Carry-over Amount (and interest accrued thereon)
shall be paid with respect to such Auction Rate Security, (a) the Carry-over
Amount (and interest accrued thereon calculated at a rate equal to One-Month
LIBOR) shall be paid by the Indenture Trustee pursuant to an Issuer Order on an
Auction Rate Security on the earliest of (i) the date of defeasance of the
Auction Rate Securities or (ii) the first occurring Payment Date with respect to
the Auction Rate Security (or on the date of any such optional redemption) if
and to the extent that (A) the Eligible Carry-over Make-Up Amount with respect
to such subsequent Interest Period is greater than zero, and (B) moneys are
available pursuant to the terms of the Indenture in an amount sufficient to pay
all or a portion of such Carry-over Amount (and interest accrued thereon), and
(b) interest shall accrue on the Carry-over Amount at a rate equal to One-Month
LIBOR until such Carry-over Amount is paid in full or is cancelled.

            The Carry-over Amount (and interest accrued thereon) for Auction
Rate Securities shall be paid by the Indenture Trustee pursuant to an Issuer
Order on Outstanding Auction Rate Securities on the earliest of (a) the date of
defeasance of any of the Auction Rate Securities or (b) the first occurring
Payment Date 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) on
such Payment Date there are sufficient moneys in the Revenue Fund to pay all
interest due on the Auction Rate Securities on such Payment Date, to redeem any
Auction Rate Securities required to be redeemed on such Payment Date in
accordance with the Indenture and to fund amounts required to be added to the
Reserve Fund on such Payment Date. Any Carry-over Amount (and any interest
accrued thereon) on any Auction Rate Security which is due and payable on an
Payment Date, which Auction Rate Security is to be redeemed (other than by
optional redemption) on said Payment Date, shall be paid to the Noteholder
thereof on said Payment Date to the extent that moneys are available therefor in
accordance with the provisions of this Appendix A; provided, however, that any
Carry-over Amount (and any interest accrued thereon) which is not yet due and
payable on said Payment Date shall be cancelled with respect to said Auction
Rate Security that is to be redeemed (other than by optional redemption) on said
Payment Date and shall not be paid on any succeeding 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 Indenture
Trustee on the earliest of (a) the date of defeasance of any of the Auction Rate
Securities or (b) the next occurring Payment Date or Dates, as necessary, if and
to the extent that the conditions in the second preceding sentence are
satisfied. On any Payment Date on which the Indenture Trustee pays only a
portion of the Carry-over Amount (and any interest accrued thereon) on Auction
Rate Securities, the Indenture Trustee shall give written notice in the manner
set forth in the immediately preceding paragraph to the Noteholder of such
Auction Rate Security receiving such partial payment of the Carry-over Amount
remaining unpaid on such Auction Rate Security.

            The Payment Date or other date on which such Carry-over Amount (or
any interest accrued thereon) for Auction Rate Securities shall be paid shall be
determined by the Indenture Trustee in accordance with the provisions of the
immediately preceding paragraph and the Indenture, and the Indenture Trustee
shall make payment of the Carry-over Amount (and any interest accrued thereon)
in the same manner as, and from the same Fund from which, it pays interest on
the Auction Rate Securities on an Payment Date. Any payment of Carry-over
Amounts (and interest accrued thereon) shall reduce the amount of Eligible
Carry-over Make-up Amount.

            In the event that the Auction Agent no longer determines, or fails
to determine, when required, the Auction Note Interest Rate with respect to
Auction Rate Securities, or, if for any reason such manner of determination
shall be held to be invalid or unenforceable, the Auction Note Interest Rate for
the next succeeding Interest Period, which Interest Period shall be an Auction
Period, for Auction Rate Securities shall be the applicable Cap Rate as
determined by the Auction Agent for such next succeeding Auction Period, and if
the Auction Agent shall fail or refuse to determine the Cap Rate, the Cap Rate
shall be determined by the securities dealer appointed by the Issuer capable of
making such a determination in accordance with the provisions of this Appendix A
and written notice of such determination shall be given by such securities
dealer to the Indenture Trustee.

            Section 2.02 Auction Rate.

            (a) Determining the Auction Rate. By purchasing Auction Rate
Securities, whether in an Auction or otherwise, each purchaser of the Auction
Rate Securities, or its Broker-Dealer, must agree and shall be deemed by such
purchase to have agreed (x) to participate in Auctions on the terms described
herein, (y) to have its beneficial ownership of the Auction Rate Securities
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 (z) 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 Auction Rate Securities is maintained in
Book-entry Form by the Securities Depository, an Existing Owner may sell,
transfer or otherwise dispose of Auction Rate Securities only pursuant to a Bid
or Sell Order placed in an Auction or otherwise sell, transfer or dispose of
Auction Rate Securities through a Broker-Dealer, provided that, in the case of
all transfers other than pursuant to Auctions, such Existing Owner, its
Broker-Dealer or its Participant advises the Auction Agent 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:

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

                        (1) each Existing Owner of Auction Rate Securities may
                  submit to a Broker-Dealer by telephone or otherwise any
                  information as to:

                              a. the principal amount of Outstanding Auction
                        Rate Securities, if any, owned by such Existing Owner
                        which such Existing Owner desires to continue to own
                        without regard to the Auction Note Interest Rate for the
                        next succeeding Auction Period;

                              b. the principal amount of Outstanding Auction
                        Rate Securities, if any, which such Existing Owner
                        offers to sell if the Auction Note Interest Rate for the
                        next succeeding Auction Period shall be less than the
                        rate per annum specified by such Existing Owner; and/or

                              c. the principal amount of Outstanding Auction
                        Rate Securities, if any, owned by such Existing Owner
                        which such Existing Owner offers to sell without regard
                        to the Auction Note Interest Rate for the next
                        succeeding Auction Period;

                        and

                        (2) one or more Broker-Dealers may contact Potential
                  Owners to determine the principal amount of Auction Rate
                  Securities which each Potential Owner offers to purchase, if
                  the Auction Note Interest Rate for the next succeeding Auction
                  Period shall not be less than the rate per annum specified by
                  such Potential Owner.

            The statement of an Existing Owner or a Potential Owner referred to
in (1) or (2) of this paragraph (A) is herein referred to as an "Order," and
each Existing Owner and each Potential Owner 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)c. is herein referred to as a
"Sell Order."

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

                        Rate Securities specified in such Bid if the Auction
                        Note Interest Rate determined as provided in this
                        Section 2.02(a) shall be less than the rate specified
                        therein; or

                              b. such principal amount, or a lesser principal
                        amount of Outstanding Auction Rate Securities to be
                        determined as set forth in Section 2.02(a)(iv)(A)(4) of
                        this Appendix A, if the Auction Note Interest Rate
                        determined as provided in this Section 2.02(a) shall be
                        equal to the rate specified therein; or

                              c. such principal amount, or a lesser principal
                        amount of Outstanding Auction Rate Securities to be
                        determined as set forth in Section 2.02(a)(iv)(B)(3) of
                        this Appendix A, if the rate specified therein shall be
                        higher than the applicable Maximum Rate and Sufficient
                        Bids have not been made.

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

                              a. the principal amount of Outstanding Auction
                        Rate Securities  specified in such Sell Order; or

                              b. such principal amount, or a lesser principal
                        amount of Outstanding Auction Rate Securities set forth
                        in Section 2.02(a)(iv)(B)(3) of this Appendix A, if
                        Sufficient Bids have not been made.

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

                              a. the principal amount of Outstanding Auction
                        Rate Securities specified in such Bid if the Auction
                        Note Interest Rate determined as provided in this
                        Section 2.02(a) shall be higher than the rate specified
                        in such Bid; or

                              b. such principal amount, or a lesser principal
                        amount of Outstanding Auction Rate Securities set forth
                        in Section 2.02(a)(iv)(A)(5) of this Appendix A, if the
                        Auction Note Interest Rate determined as provided in
                        this Section 2.02(a) shall be equal to the rate
                        specified in such Bid.

            (ii)  (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 Auction Rate
                  Securities that are the subject of such Order;

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

                              a. the principal amount of Auction Rate
                        Securities, if any, subject to any Hold Order placed by
                        such Existing Owner;

                              b. the principal amount of Auction Rate
                        Securities, if any, subject to any Bid placed by such
                        Existing Owner and the rate specified in such Bid; and

                              c. the principal amount of Auction Rate
                        Securities, if any, subject to any Sell Order placed by
                        such Existing Owner;

                        and

                        (4) to the extent such Bidder is a Potential Owner, the
                  rate specified in such Potential Owner'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 higher one thousandth of 1%.

                  (C) If an Order or Orders covering all Outstanding Auction
            Rate Securities owned by an Existing Owner 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 Owner covering the principal amount of Outstanding Auction
            Rate Securities owned by such Existing Owner and not subject to an
            Order submitted to the Auction Agent.

                  (D) Neither the Issuer, the Indenture 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 Owner
            or Potential Owner.

                  (E) If any Existing Owner submits through a Broker-Dealer to
            the Auction Agent one or more Orders covering in the aggregate more
            than the principal amount of Outstanding Auction Rate Securities
            owned by such Existing Owner, 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 Auction
                  Rate Securities owned by such Existing Owner, and if the
                  aggregate principal amount of Auction Rate Securities subject
                  to such Hold Orders exceeds the aggregate principal amount of
                  Auction Rate Securities owned by such Existing Owner, the
                  aggregate principal amount of Auction Rate Securities subject
                  to each such Hold Order shall be reduced pro rata so that the
                  aggregate principal amount of Auction Rate Securities subject
                  to such Hold Order equals the aggregate principal amount of
                  Outstanding Auction Rate Securities owned by such Existing
                  Owner.

                        (2) a. Any Bid shall be considered valid up to an amount
                  equal to the excess of the principal amount of Outstanding
                  Auction Rate Securities owned by such Existing Owner over the
                  aggregate principal amount of Auction Rate Securities subject
                  to any Hold Order referred to in clause (A) of this paragraph
                  (ii);

                             b. subject to subclause (1) of this clause (E), if
                        more than one Bid with the same rate is submitted on
                        behalf of such Existing Owner and the aggregate
                        principal amount of Outstanding Auction Rate Securities
                        subject to such Bids is greater than such excess, such
                        Bids shall be considered valid up to an amount equal to
                        such excess;

                             c. subject to subclauses (1) and (2) of this
                        clause (E), if more than one Bid with different rates
                        are submitted on behalf of such Existing Owner, 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
                        Auction Rate Securities, if any, subject to Bids not
                        valid under this clause (E) shall be treated as the
                        subject of a Bid by a Potential Owner 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 Auction Rate Securities owned by such Existing
                  Owner over the aggregate principal amount of Auction Rate
                  Securities subject to Hold Orders referred to in clause (1) of
                  this paragraph (v) and valid Bids referred to in clause (2) of
                  this paragraph (E).

                  (F) If more than one Bid for Auction Rate Securities is
            submitted on behalf of any Potential Owner, each Bid submitted shall
            be a separate Bid with the rate and principal amount therein
            specified.

                  (G) An Existing Owner that offers to purchase additional
            Auction Rate Securities is, for purposes of such offer, treated as a
            Potential Owner.

                  (H) Any Bid or Sell Order submitted by an Existing Owner
            covering an aggregate principal amount of Auction Rate Securities
            not equal to an Authorized Denomination shall be rejected and shall
            be deemed a Hold Order. Any Bid submitted by a Potential Owner
            covering an aggregate principal amount of Auction Rate Securities
            not equal to an Authorized Denomination shall be rejected.

                  (I) Any Bid specifying a rate higher than the applicable
            Maximum Rate will (1) be treated as a Sell Order if submitted by an
            Existing Owner and (2) not be accepted if submitted by a Potential
            Owner.

                  (J) Any Order submitted in an Auction by a Broker-Dealer to
            the Auction Agent prior to the Submission Deadline on any Auction
            Date shall be irrevocable.

           (iii)  (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 Auction Rate Securities over the sum of the
                  aggregate principal amount of Outstanding Auction Rate
                  Securities subject to Submitted Hold Orders (such excess being
                  herein referred to as the "Available Auction Rate
                  Securities"), and

                        (2) from the Submitted Orders whether:

                              a. the aggregate principal amount of Outstanding
                        Auction Rate Securities subject to Submitted Bids by
                        Potential Owners specifying one or more rates equal to
                        or lower than the applicable Maximum Rate;

                  exceeds or is equal to the sum of:

                              b. the aggregate principal amount of Outstanding
                        Auction Rate Securities subject to Submitted Bids by
                        Existing Owners specifying one or more rates higher than
                        the applicable Maximum Rate; and

                              c. the aggregate principal amount of Outstanding
                        Auction Rate Securities subject to Submitted Sell
                        Orders;

                  (in the event such excess or such equality exists, other than
                  because all of the Outstanding Auction Rate Securities 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 Bid Auction Rate,
                  which shall be the lowest rate specified in such Submitted
                  Bids such that if:

                              a. (x) each Submitted Bid from Existing Owners
                        specifying such lowest rate and (y) all other Submitted
                        Bids from Existing Owners specifying lower rates were
                        rejected, thus entitling such Existing Owners to
                        continue to own the principal amount of Auction Rate
                        Securities subject to such Submitted Bids; and

                              b. (x) each such Submitted Bid from Potential
                        Owners specifying such lowest rate and (y) all other
                        Submitted Bids from Potential Owners specifying lower
                        rates were accepted;

                  the result would be that such Existing Owners described in
                  subclause a. above would continue to own an aggregate
                  principal amount of Outstanding Auction Rate Securities which,
                  when added to the aggregate principal amount of Outstanding
                  Auction Rate Securities to be purchased by such Potential
                  Owners described in subclause b. above, would equal not less
                  than the Available Auction Rate Securities.

                  (B) Promptly after the Auction Agent has made the
            determinations pursuant to Section 2.02(a)(iii)(A) of this Appendix
            A, the Auction Agent shall advise the Indenture Trustee, the
            Broker-Dealers and the Issuer of the Net Loan Rate, Maximum Rate and
            the All Hold Rate and the components thereof on the Auction Date
            provided, however, the Auction Agent shall have no obligation to
            determine the Net Loan Rate except on any Auction Date on which the
            Auction Rate for the next succeeding Interest Period would exceed
            the applicable Commercial Paper Rate (90-day) plus 0.70% or
            Sufficient Bids do not exist for such Auction Date. Based on such
            determinations, the Auction Rate for the next succeeding Interest
            Period will be established as follows:

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

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

                        (3) if all Outstanding Auction Rate Securities are
                  subject to Submitted Hold Orders, that the Auction Rate for
                  the next succeeding Interest Period shall be equal to the
                  applicable All Hold Rate.

                  (C) Promptly after the Auction Agent has determined the
            Auction Rate, the Auction Agent shall determine and advise the
            Indenture Trustee of the Auction Note Interest Rate, which rate
            shall be the lesser of (x) the Auction Rate and (y) the applicable
            Maximum Rate.

            (iv) Existing Owners shall continue to own the principal amount
      of Auction Rate Securities that are subject to Submitted Hold Orders. If
      the Net Loan Rate is equal to or greater than the Bid Auction Rate and if
      Sufficient Bids have been received by the Auction Agent, the Bid Auction
      Rate will be the Auction Note Interest Rate, and Submitted Bids and
      Submitted Sell Orders will be accepted or rejected and the Auction Agent
      will take such other action as described below in subparagraph (A).

            If the Maximum Rate is less than the Auction Rate, the Maximum Rate
will be the Auction Note Interest Rate. If the Auction Agent has not received
Sufficient Bids (other than because all of the Outstanding Auction Rate
Securities are subject to Submitted Hold Orders), the Auction Note Interest Rate
will be the applicable 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).

                  (A) If Sufficient Bids have been made and the Maximum Rate is
            equal to or greater than the Bid Auction Rate (in which case the
            Auction Note Interest Rate shall be the Bid Auction Rate), all
            Submitted Sell Orders shall be accepted and, subject to the
            provisions of clauses (4) and (5) 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 Owners' Submitted Bids specifying any rate
                  that is higher than the Auction Note Interest Rate shall be
                  accepted, thus requiring each such Existing Owner to sell the
                  aggregate principal amount of Auction Rate Securities subject
                  to such Submitted Bids;

                        (2) Existing Owners' Submitted Bids specifying any rate
                  that is lower than the Auction Note Interest Rate shall be
                  rejected, thus entitling each such Existing Owner to continue
                  to own the aggregate principal amount of Auction Rate
                  Securities subject to such Submitted Bids;

                        (3) Potential Owners' Submitted Bids specifying any rate
                  that is lower than the Auction Note Interest Rate shall be
                  accepted;

                        (4) Each Existing Owners' Submitted Bid specifying a
                  rate that is equal to the Auction Note Interest Rate shall be
                  rejected, thus entitling such Existing Owner to continue to
                  own the aggregate principal amount of Auction Rate Securities
                  subject to such Submitted Bid, unless the aggregate principal
                  amount of Outstanding Auction Rate Securities subject to all
                  such Submitted Bids shall be greater than the principal amount
                  of Auction Rate Securities (the "remaining principal amount")
                  equal to the excess of the Available Auction Rate Securities
                  over the aggregate principal amount of Auction Rate Securities
                  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 Owner shall be rejected in part, and such
                  Existing Owner shall be entitled to continue to own the
                  principal amount of Auction Rate Securities subject to such
                  Submitted Bid, but only in an amount equal to the aggregate
                  principal amount of Auction Rate Securities obtained by
                  multiplying the remaining principal amount by a fraction, the
                  numerator of which shall be the principal amount of
                  Outstanding Auction Rate Securities owned by such Existing
                  Owner subject to such Submitted Bid and the denominator of
                  which shall be the sum of the principal amount of Outstanding
                  Auction Rate Securities subject to such Submitted Bids made by
                  all such Existing Owners that specified a rate equal to the
                  Auction Note Interest Rate, subject to the provisions of
                  Section 2.02(a)(iv)(D) of this Appendix A; and

                        (5) Each Potential Owner's Submitted Bid specifying a
                  rate that is equal to the Auction Note Interest Rate shall be
                  accepted, but only in an amount equal to the principal amount
                  of Auction Rate Securities obtained by multiplying the excess
                  of the aggregate principal amount of Available Auction Rate
                  Securities over the aggregate principal amount of Auction Rate
                  Securities 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 Auction Rate Securities subject to such Submitted
                  Bid and the denominator of which shall be the sum of the
                  principal amount of Outstanding Auction Rate Securities
                  subject to Submitted Bids made by all such Potential Owners
                  that specified a rate equal to the Auction Note Interest Rate,
                  subject to the provisions of Section 2.02(a)(iv)(D) of this
                  Appendix A.

                  (B) If Sufficient Bids have not been made (other than because
            all of the Outstanding Auction Rate Securities are subject to
            submitted Hold Orders), or if the Maximum Rate is less than the Bid
            Auction Rate (in which case the Auction Note Interest Rate shall be
            the Maximum Rate), subject to the provisions of Section
            2.02(a)(iv)(D) of this Appendix A, 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 Owners' Submitted Bids specifying any rate
                  that is equal to or lower than the Auction Note Interest Rate
                  shall be rejected, thus entitling such Existing Owners to
                  continue to own the aggregate principal amount of Auction Rate
                  Securities subject to such Submitted Bids;

                        (2) Potential Owners' Submitted Bids specifying (x) any
                  rate that is equal to or lower than the Auction Note Interest
                  Rate shall be accepted and (y) any rate that is higher than
                  the Auction Note Interest Rate shall be rejected; and

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

                  (C) If all Auction Rate Securities 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(a)(iv), any Existing Owner would be
            entitled or required to sell, or any Potential Owner would be
            entitled or required to purchase, a principal amount of Auction Rate
            Securities 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 Auction
            Rate Securities to be purchased or sold by any Existing Owner or
            Potential Owner so that the principal amount of Auction Rate
            Securities purchased or sold by each Existing Owner or Potential
            Owner shall be equal to an Authorized Denomination.

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

            (v) Based on the result of each Auction, the Auction Agent shall
      determine the aggregate principal amount of Auction Rate Securities to be
      purchased and the aggregate principal amount of Auction Rate Securities to
      be sold by Potential Owners and Existing Owners 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
      Auction Rate Securities to be sold differs from such aggregate principal
      amount of Auction Rate Securities 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, Auction Rate Securities.

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

            (vii) Notwithstanding anything in this Appendix A to the contrary,
      (A) no Auction for the Auction Rate Securities for an Auction Period of
      less than 180 days will be held on any Auction Date hereunder on which
      there are insufficient moneys in the Revenue Fund to pay, or otherwise
      held by the Indenture Trustee under the Indenture and available to pay,
      the principal of and interest due on the Auction Rate Securities on the
      Payment Date immediately following such Auction Date, and (B) no Auction
      will be held on any Auction Date hereunder during the continuance of a
      Payment Default. The Indenture Trustee shall promptly notify the Auction
      Agent of any such occurrence.

            (b) Application of Interest Payments for the Auction Rate
Securities.

            (i) The Indenture Trustee shall determine not later than 2:00 p.m.,
      eastern time, on the Business Day next succeeding an Payment Date, whether
      a Payment Default has occurred. If a Payment Default has occurred, the
      Indenture Trustee shall, not later than 2:15 p.m., eastern 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 Indenture 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 2:00 p.m., eastern time, on each anniversary of
      the Closing Date, the Indenture Trustee shall pay to the Auction Agent, in
      immediately available funds out of amounts in the Revenue Fund, an amount
      equal to the Auction Agent Fee as set forth in the Auction Agent Agreement
      as set forth in the Servicer's Report. Not later than 2:00 p.m., eastern
      time, on each Auction Date, the Indenture Trustee shall pay to the Auction
      Agent, in immediately available funds out of amounts in the Revenue Fund,
      an amount equal to the Broker-Dealer Fee as calculated in the Auction
      Agent Agreement. The Indenture Trustee shall, from time to time at the
      request of the Auction Agent and at the direction of an Authorized
      Officer, reimburse the Auction Agent for its reasonable expenses as
      provided in the Auction Agent Agreement, such expenses to be paid out of
      amounts in the Revenue Fund.

            (c) Calculation of Maximum Rate, All Hold Rate, Net Loan Rate,
Applicable LIBOR Rate, and Non-Payment Rate. The Auction Agent shall calculate
the applicable Maximum Rate, Net Loan Rate, Applicable LIBOR Rate, and All Hold
Rate, as the case may be, on each Auction Date and shall notify the Indenture
Trustee and the Broker-Dealers of the applicable Maximum Rate, Net Loan Rate,
Applicable LIBOR Rate, and All Hold Rate, as the case may be, as provided in the
Auction Agent Agreement; provided, that if the ownership of the Auction Rate
Securities is no longer maintained in Book-entry Form, or if a Payment Default
has occurred, then the Indenture Trustee shall determine the applicable Maximum
Rate, Net Loan Rate, Applicable LIBOR Rate, All Hold Rate and Non-Payment Rate
for each such Interest Period. If the ownership of the Auction Rate Securities
is no longer maintained in Book-entry Form by the Securities Depository, the
Indenture Trustee shall calculate the applicable Maximum Rate and the Net Loan
Rate on the Business Day immediately preceding the first day of each Interest
Period after the delivery of certificates representing the Auction Rate
Securities pursuant to the Indenture. If a Payment Default shall have occurred,
the Indenture 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 determination by the Indenture Trustee or the Auction Agent, as the case may
be, of the applicable Maximum Rate, Net Loan Rate, Applicable LIBOR Rate, All
Hold Rate and Non-Payment Rate shall (in the absence of manifest error) be final
and binding upon all parties. If calculated or determined by the Auction Agent,
the Auction Agent shall promptly advise the Indenture Trustee of the applicable
Maximum Rate, Net Loan Rate, Applicable LIBOR Rate, and All Hold Rate.

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

            (i) By 12:00 noon, eastern time, on the Business Day following each
      Regular Record Date, the Indenture Trustee shall determine the aggregate
      amounts of interest distributable on the next succeeding Payment Date to
      the beneficial owners of Auction Rate Securities.

            (ii) At least four days prior to any Payment Date, the Indenture
      Trustee shall:

                  (A) confirm with the Auction Agent, so long as no Payment
            Default has occurred and is continuing and the ownership of the
            Auction Rate Securities is maintained in Book-entry Form by the
            Securities Depository, (1) the date of such next Payment Date and
            (2) the amount payable to the Auction Agent on the Auction Date
            pursuant to Section 2.02(b)(ii) of this Appendix A; and

                  (B) advise the Securities Depository, so long as the ownership
            of the Auction Rate Securities is maintained in Book-entry Form by
            the Securities Depository, upon request, of the aggregate amount of
            interest distributable on such next Payment Date to the beneficial
            owners of each Class of the Auction Rate Securities.

            If any day scheduled to be an Payment Date shall be changed after
the Indenture Trustee shall have given the notice or confirmation referred to in
clause (i) of the preceding sentence, the Indenture Trustee shall, not later
than 11:15 a.m., eastern time, on the Business Day next preceding the earlier of
the new Payment Date or the old Payment Date, by such means as the Indenture
Trustee deems practicable, give notice of such change to the Auction Agent, so
long as no Payment Default has occurred and is continuing and the ownership of
the Auction Rate Securities is maintained in Book-entry Form by the Securities
Depository.

            (e) Auction Agent.

            (i) Bankers Trust Company is hereby appointed as Initial Auction
      Agent to serve as agent for the Issuer in connection with Auctions. The
      Indenture Trustee and the Issuer will, and the Indenture Trustee is hereby
      directed to, enter into the Initial Auction Agent Agreement with Bankers
      Trust Company, as the Initial Auction Agent. Any Substitute Auction Agent
      shall be (A) 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 Indenture
      Trustee in writing and having a combined capital stock or surplus of at
      least $50,000,000, or (B) 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 at any time resign and be discharged of the duties and obligations
      created by this Appendix A by giving at least 90 days' notice to the
      Indenture Trustee, each Broker-Dealer and the Issuer. The Auction Agent
      may be removed at any time by the Indenture Trustee upon the written
      direction of an Authorized Officer or by the holders of a majority of the
      aggregate principal amount of the Auction Rate Securities then
      Outstanding, and if by such Noteholders, by an instrument signed by such
      Noteholders or their attorneys and filed with the Auction Agent, the
      Issuer and the Indenture Trustee upon at least 90 days' written notice.
      Neither resignation nor removal of the Auction Agent pursuant to the
      preceding two sentences shall be effective until and unless a Substitute
      Auction Agent has been appointed and has accepted such appointment. 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 Indenture Trustee, each Broker-Dealer
      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
      Indenture Trustee at the direction of an Authorized Officer, 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.

            (f) Broker-Dealer.

            (i) The Auction Agent will enter into Broker-Dealer Agreements with
      Salomon Smith Barney Inc. and Merrill Lynch & Co. as the initial
      Broker-Dealers. An Authorized Officer may, from time to time, approve one
      or more additional persons to serve as a Broker-Dealer under the
      Broker-Dealer Agreements and shall be responsible for providing such
      Broker-Dealer Agreements to the Indenture Trustee and the Auction Agent.

            (ii) Any Broker-Dealer may be removed at any time, at the request of
      an Authorized Officer, but there shall, at all times, be at least one
      Broker-Dealer appointed and acting as such.

            (g) Changes in Auction Period or Periods and Certain Percentages.

            (i) While any of the Auction Rate Securities are Outstanding, the
      Issuer may, from time to time, change the length of one or more Auction
      Periods (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 interest rate borne by the
      Auction Rate Securities. The Issuer shall not initiate an Auction Period
      Adjustment unless it shall have received the written consent of the
      applicable Broker-Dealer, which consent shall not be unreasonably
      withheld, not later than nine days prior to the Auction Date for such
      Auction Period. The Issuer shall initiate the Auction Period Adjustment by
      giving written notice by Issuer Order to the Indenture Trustee, the
      Auction Agent, the applicable Broker-Dealer, each Rating Agency and the
      Securities Depository in substantially the form of, or containing
      substantially the information contained in, Exhibit E attached hereto at
      least 10 days prior to the Auction Date for such Auction Period.

            (ii) Any such adjusted Auction Period shall not be less than 7 days
      nor more than 366 days.

            (iii) An Auction Period Adjustment shall take effect only if (A) the
      Indenture Trustee and the Auction Agent receive, by 11:00 a.m., eastern
      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 attached hereto, authorizing the Auction Period Adjustment specified in
      such certificate along with a copy of the written consent of the
      applicable Broker-Dealer 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 Auction Note Interest
      Rate for the next Auction Period shall be determined pursuant to the above
      provisions of this Section 2.02 and the Auction Period shall be the
      Auction Period determined without reference to the proposed change. If the
      condition referred to in (A) is met but the condition referred in (B)
      above is not met, the applicable Auction Note Interest Rate for the next
      Auction Period shall be the applicable Maximum Rate and the Auction Period
      shall be the Auction Period determined without reference to the proposed
      change.

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

            (h) Changes in the Auction Date. The applicable Broker-Dealer,
with the written consent of an Authorized Officer and, if applicable, upon
receipt of the opinion of Note Counsel as required below, may specify a
different 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 Section 1.01 of this Appendix A with respect to
one or more specified Auction Periods 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 interest rate borne on the Auction Rate
Securities. The applicable Broker-Dealer shall deliver a written request for
consent to such change in the length of the Auction Date to the Issuer at least
14 days prior to the effective date of such change. If the Issuer shall have
delivered such written consent to the applicable Broker-Dealer, such
Broker-Dealer 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 10 days prior to the proposed changed Auction Date to the
Indenture Trustee, the Auction Agent, the Issuer, each Rating Agency and the
Securities Depository. Such notice shall be substantially in the form of, or
contain substantially the information contained in, Exhibit G attached hereto.

            In connection with any change described in this Section 2.02(h), the
Auction Agent shall provide such further notice to such parties as is specified
in Section 2.03 of the Auction Agent Agreement.

            Section 2.03 Additional Provisions Regarding the Interest Rates on
the Auction Rate Securities. The determination of a Variable Rate by the Auction
Agent or any other Person pursuant to the provisions of the applicable Section
of this Article II shall be conclusive and binding on the Noteholders of the
Auction Rate Securities to which such Variable Rate applies, and the Issuer and
the Indenture Trustee may rely thereon for all purposes.

            In no event shall the cumulative amount of interest paid or payable
on the Auction Rate Securities (including interest calculated as provided
herein, plus any other amounts that constitute interest on the Auction Rate
Securities under applicable law, which are contracted for, charged, reserved,
taken or received pursuant to the Auction Rate Securities or related documents)
calculated from the Date of Closing of the Auction Rate Securities through any
subsequent day during the term of the Auction Rate Securities or otherwise prior
to payment in full of the Auction Rate Securities 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 Auction Rate Securities or
related documents or otherwise contracted for, charged, reserved, taken or
received in connection with the Auction Rate Securities, or if the redemption or
acceleration of the maturity of the Auction Rate Securities results in payment
to or receipt by the Noteholder or any former Noteholder of the Auction Rate
Securities of any interest in excess of that permitted by applicable law, then,
notwithstanding any provision of the Auction Rate Securities or related
documents to the contrary, all excess amounts theretofore paid or received with
respect to the Auction Rate Securities shall be credited on the principal
balance of the Auction Rate Securities (or, if the Auction Rate Securities have
been paid or would thereby be paid in full, refunded by the recipient thereof),
and the provisions of the Auction Rate Securities 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
Auction Rate Securities and under the related documents.

PRINCIPAL  SUM:  _________________________________________  AND 00/100 DOLLARS
NOTEHOLDER: CEDE & CO.

            SLC STUDENT LOAN TRUST-I, a Delaware business trust organized under
the laws of the State of Delaware (the "Issuer," which term includes any
successor entity under the Indenture of Trust, dated as of [March _, 2002] (the
"Indenture") and the Series 2002-1 Supplemental Indenture of Trust dated as of
[March _, 2002] (as amended, the "Series 2002-1 Supplemental Indenture"), each
between the Issuer and Bankers Trust Company, as Indenture Trustee (the
"Indenture Trustee," which term includes any successor indenture trustee under
the Indenture)) for value received, hereby promises to pay to the Noteholder
(stated above) or registered assigns, the Principal Sum of (stated above), but
solely from the revenues and receipts hereinafter specified and not otherwise,
on the Maturity Date specified above (subject to the right of prior redemption
hereinafter described), upon presentation and surrender of this note at the
Corporate Trust Office of the Indenture Trustee, as paying agent, Indenture
Trustee, authenticating agent and registrar for the Notes, or a duly appointed
successor paying agent, and to pay interest in arrears on said Principal Sum,
but solely from the revenues and receipts hereinafter specified and not
otherwise, to the Noteholder hereof from the most recent Payment Date to which
interest has been paid hereon, until the payment of said principal sum in full.

            Any capitalized words and terms used as defined words and terms in
this note and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings given them in
the Indenture.

            This note shall bear interest at an Auction Rate, all as determined
in Appendix A of the Series 2002-1 Supplemental Indenture.

            The principal of and interest on this note are payable in lawful
money of the United States of America. If the specified date for any payment of
principal or interest accrued to such specified date shall be a day other than a
Business Day then such payment may be made on the next succeeding Business Day,
with the same force and effect as if made on the specified date for such payment
without additional interest.

            Interest payable on this note shall be computed on the assumption
that each year contains 360 days and actual days elapsed.

            This note is one of a series of notes of the Issuer designated
Student Loan Asset-Backed Notes, Senior Class A-[1][2][3][4] Auction Rate
Securities, dated the Original Issue Date, in the aggregate original principal
amount of $_______________ (the "Class A-[1][2][3][4] Notes") which have been
authorized by the Issuer, and issued by the Issuer pursuant to the Indenture.
The Issuer is, simultaneously with the Class A-[1][2][3][4] Notes, issuing
$_______________ of its Student Loan Asset-Backed Notes, Senior Class A Notes in
three other classes (together with the Class A-[1][2][3][4] Notes, the "Class A
Notes"), $_____ of its Student Loan Asset-Backed Notes, Subordinate Class 2002-1
Notes in one class (the "Class B Notes") and $_____ of its Student Loan
Asset-Backed Notes, Residual Class 2002-1 Notes in one class (the "Class R
Notes"). The proceeds of such notes have been used by the Issuer, together with
other moneys of the Issuer, for the purpose of providing funds to finance the
acquisition of student loans, fund a reserve fund and to pay certain costs and
expenses in connection with the issuance of such notes. The Indenture provides
for the issuance of additional notes (the "Additional Notes") which may be
secured on a parity with or subordinate to the Class A Notes, the Class B Notes
and Class R Notes as determined by the Issuer. The Class A Notes, the Class B
Notes, the Class R Notes and any Additional Notes are collectively referred to
herein as the "Notes."

            Mandatory Redemption and Optional Redemption. This note is subject
to mandatory redemption and optional redemption, all as described in the
Indenture.

            Optional Redemption or Purchase. The Issuer may redeem or purchase
or cause to be purchased all of the Notes on any Payment Date on which the
aggregate current principal balance of all the Notes (other than the Residual
Notes) shall be less than or equal to10% of the initial aggregate principal
balance of all the Notes (other than the Residual Notes) issued under the
Indenture on the respective Dates of Issuance, at a redemption or purchase price
equal to the aggregate current principal balance of all the Notes, plus accrued
interest on the Notes through the day preceding the Payment Date on which the
redemption or purchase occurs.

            Notice of Redemption or Purchase. Notice of the call for redemption
shall be given by the Indenture Trustee by mailing a copy of the notice at least
12 days prior to the redemption or purchase date to the Noteholders to be
redeemed in whole or in part at the address of such Noteholder last showing on
the registration books. Failure to give such notice or any defect therein shall
not affect the validity of any proceedings for the redemption or purchase of
such Auction Rate Securities for which no such failure or defect occurs. All
Notes called for redemption or purchase 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. If less than all Notes are to be
redeemed or purchased, Notes shall be selected for redemption or purchase as
provided in the Indenture.

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

            The principal of and interest on the Class A Notes and any
Additional Notes issued on a parity with the Class A Notes and any Issuer
Derivative Payments secured on a parity with the Class A Notes are payable on a
superior basis to such payments on the Class B Notes and any Additional Notes
issued on a parity or subordinate to the Class B Notes; provided, however, that
current principal and interest may be paid on the Class B Notes and any
Additional Notes issued on a parity with the Class B Notes or subordinate to the
Class B Notes if all principal and interest payments due and owing at such time
on the Class A Notes and any Additional Notes issued on a parity with the Class
A Notes and any Issuer Derivative Payments secured on a parity with the Class A
Notes have been previously made or provided for as provided in the Indenture.

            Reference is hereby made to the Indenture, copies of which are on
file in the Corporate Trust Office of the Indenture Trustee, and to all of the
provisions of which any Noteholder 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 Noteholders and any
Reciprocal Payor; the rights and remedies of the Noteholder hereof with respect
hereto and thereto, including the limitations upon the right of a Noteholder
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 Indenture 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 Indenture Trustee, or any
employee, or agent of the Issuer, nor against the State of Delaware, or any
official thereof, 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.

            Subject to the restrictions specified in the Indenture, this note is
transferable on the Note Register kept for that purpose by the Indenture
Trustee, as registrar, upon surrender of this note for transfer at the Corporate
Trust Office of the Indenture Trustee, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a
written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee
duly executed by, the Noteholder hereof or his attorney duly authorized in
writing, and thereupon one or more new Notes of the same series, Stated
Maturity, of authorized denominations, bearing interest at the same rate, and
for the same aggregate principal amount will be issued to the designated
transferee or transferees. At the option of the Noteholder, any Note may be
exchanged for other Notes in authorized denominations upon surrender of the Note
to be exchanged at the Corporate Trust Office of the Indenture Trustee. Upon any
such presentation for exchange, one or more new Notes of the same series, Stated
Maturity, in authorized denominations, bearing interest at the same rate, and
for the same aggregate principal amount as the Note or Notes so surrendered will
be issued to the Noteholder of the Note or Notes so surrendered; and the Note or
Notes so surrendered shall thereupon be cancelled by the Indenture Trustee.

            Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as the ownership of the Notes
is maintained in book-entry form by The Depository Trust Company (the
"Securities Depository") or a nominee thereof, this note may be transferred in
whole but not in part only to the Securities Depository or a nominee thereof or
to a successor Securities Depository or its nominee.

            The Issuer, the Indenture Trustee, and any agent of either of them
shall treat the Person in whose name this note is registered as the Noteholder
hereof (a) on the record date for purposes of receiving timely payment of
interest hereon, and (b) on the date of surrender of this note for purposes of
receiving payment of principal hereof at its stated maturity and (c) for all
other purposes, whether or not this note is overdue, and neither the Issuer, the
Indenture Trustee, nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the

NOTEHOLDER: CEDE & CO.

            SLC STUDENT LOAN TRUST-I, a Delaware business trust organized under
the laws of the State of Delaware (the "Issuer," which term includes any
successor corporation under the Indenture of Trust, dated as of [March _, 2002]
(the "Original Indenture") and the Series 2002-1 Supplemental Indenture of Trust
dated as of [March _, 2002] (as amended, the "Series 2002-1 Supplemental
Indenture," and together with the Original Indenture, the "Indenture"), each
between the Issuer and Bankers Trust Company, as Indenture Trustee (the

the Indenture)) for value received, hereby promises to pay to the Noteholder

hereinafter described), upon presentation and surrender of this note at the
principal office of the Indenture Trustee, as paying agent, Indenture Trustee,
authenticating agent and registrar for the Notes, or a duly appointed successor
paying agent, and to pay interest in arrears on said Principal Sum, but solely
from the revenues and receipts hereinafter specified and not otherwise, to the
Noteholder hereof from the most recent Payment Date to which interest has been
paid hereon, until the payment of said principal sum in full.

            Any capitalized words and terms used as defined words and terms in
this note and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings given them in
the Indenture.

            This note shall bear interest at an Auction Rate, all as determined
in Appendix A of the Series 2002-1 Supplemental Indenture.

            The principal of and interest on this note are payable in lawful
money of the United States of America. If the specified date for any payment of
principal or interest accrued to such specified date shall be a day other than a
Business Day then such payment may be made on the next succeeding Business Day,
with the same force and effect as if made on the specified date for such payment
without additional interest.

            Interest payable on this note shall be computed on the assumption
that each year contains 360 days and actual days elapsed.

            This note is one of a series of notes of the Issuer designated
Student Loan Asset-Backed Notes, Subordinate Class B-1 Auction Rate Securities,
dated the Original Issue Date, in the aggregate original principal amount of
$_______ (the "Class B-1 Notes") which have been authorized by the Issuer, and
issued by the Issuer pursuant to the Indenture. The Issuer is, simultaneously
with the Class B-1 Notes, issuing $______ of its Student Loan Asset-Backed
Notes, Senior Class A Notes in four classes (collectively, the "Class A Notes")
and $______ of its Student Loan Asset-Backed Notes, Residual Class Notes in one
class (the "Class R Notes"). The proceeds of such notes have been used by the
Issuer, together with other moneys of the Issuer, for the purpose of providing
funds to finance the acquisition of student loans, fund a reserve fund and to
pay certain costs and expenses in connection with the issuance of such notes.
The Indenture provides for the issuance of additional notes (the "Additional
Notes") which may be secured on a parity with or subordinate to the Class A
Notes, the Class B Notes and the Class R Notes as determined by the Issuer. The
Class A Notes, the Class B Notes, the Class R Notes and any Additional Notes are
collectively referred to herein as the "Notes."

            Mandatory Redemption, Optional Redemption and Extraordinary
Redemption. This note is subject to mandatory redemption, optional redemption
and extraordinary redemption, all as described in the Indenture.

            Optional Redemption or Purchase. The Issuer may redeem or purchase
or cause to be purchased all of the Notes on any Payment Date on which the
aggregate current principal balance of all the Notes (other than the Residual
Notes) shall be less than or equal to10% of the initial aggregate principal
balance of all the Notes (other than the Residual Notes) issued under the
Indenture on the respective Dates of Issuance, at a redemption or purchase price
equal to the aggregate current principal balance of all the Notes, plus accrued
interest on the Notes through the day preceding the Payment Date on which the
redemption or purchase occurs.

            Notice of Redemption or Purchase. Notice of the call for redemption
shall be given by the Indenture Trustee by mailing a copy of the notice at least
12 days prior to the redemption or purchase date to the Noteholders to be
redeemed in whole or in part at the address of such Noteholder last showing on
the registration books. Failure to give such notice or any defect therein shall
not affect the validity of any proceedings for the redemption or purchase of
such Auction Rate Securities for which no such failure or defect occurs. All
Notes called for redemption or purchase 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. If less than all Notes are to be
redeemed or purchased, Notes shall be selected for redemption or purchase as
provided in the Indenture.

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

            The principal of and interest on the Class A Notes and any
Additional Notes issued on a parity with the Class A Notes and any Issuer
Derivative Payments secured on a parity with the Class A Notes are payable on a
superior basis to such payments on the Class B Notes and any Additional Notes
issued on a parity or subordinate to the Class B Notes; provided, however, that
current principal and interest may be paid on the Class B Notes and any
Additional Notes issued on a parity with the Class B Notes or subordinate to the
Class B Notes if all principal and interest payments due and owing at such time
on the Class A Notes and any Additional Notes issued on a parity with the Class
A Notes and any Issuer Derivative Payments secured on a parity with the Class A
Notes have been previously made or provided for as provided in the Indenture.

            Reference is hereby made to the Indenture, copies of which are on
file in the principal office of the Indenture Trustee, and to all of the
provisions of which any Noteholder of this note by his acceptance hereof hereby
assents, for definitions of terms; the description of and the nature and extent

respect hereto and thereto; the rights, duties, and obligations of the Issuer
and the Indenture 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

and provisions thereof.

FROM, AND FURTHER SECURED BY, THE TRUST ESTATE, AS DEFINED IN THE INDENTURE.

amounts required by the Indenture securing this note and the obligation to do

alterations of the Indenture and any supplemental indenture may be made with the
consent of less than all of the holders of the Notes then outstanding or without
the consent of any of such Noteholders (by reason of a change in the Act or
Regulation or to cure ambiguities or conflicts), but such modification or
alteration is not permitted to affect the maturity date, Stated Maturity,
amount, Payment Date, or rate of interest on any outstanding Notes or affect the
rights of the Noteholders of less than all of the Notes outstanding.

            Any capitalized term used herein and not otherwise defined herein
shall have the same meaning ascribed to such term in the herein defined
Indenture unless the context shall clearly indicate otherwise.

            It is hereby certified and recited that all acts and things required
by the laws of the State of Delaware to happen, exist, and be performed
precedent to and in the issuance of this note, and the passage of said
resolution and the execution of said Indenture, have happened, exist and have

            The Class R-1 Notes shall be subject to certain transfer
restrictions as described in Section 3.22(d) of the Indenture.

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

            Payments of interest and principal on the Class R-1 Notes shall be
subordinate to the rights of the Class A Notes and Class B Notes to receive
payments of interest and principal.

            Reference is hereby made to the Indenture, copies of which are on
file in the Corporate Trust Office of the Indenture Trustee, and to all of the
provisions of which any Noteholder 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 Noteholders and any
Reciprocal Payor; the rights and remedies of the Noteholder hereof with respect
hereto and thereto, including the limitations upon the right of a Noteholder
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 Indenture 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 Indenture Trustee, or any
incorporator, director, officer, employee, or agent of the Issuer, nor against
the State of Delaware, or any official thereof, 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.

            Subject to the restrictions specified in the Indenture, this note is
transferable on the Note Register kept for that purpose by the Indenture
Trustee, as registrar, upon surrender of this note for transfer at the Corporate
Trust Office of the Indenture Trustee, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a
written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee
duly executed by, the Noteholder hereof or his attorney duly authorized in
writing, and thereupon one or more new Notes of the same series, Stated
Maturity, of authorized denominations, bearing interest at the same rate, and
for the same aggregate principal amount will be issued to the designated
transferee or transferees. At the option of the Noteholder, any Note may be
exchanged for other Notes in authorized denominations upon surrender of the Note
to be exchanged at the Corporate Trust Office of the Indenture Trustee. Upon any
such presentation for exchange, one or more new Notes of the same series, Stated
Maturity, in authorized denominations, bearing interest at the same rate, and
for the same aggregate principal amount as the Note or Notes so surrendered will
be issued to the Noteholder of the Note or Notes so surrendered; and the Note or
Notes so surrendered shall thereupon be cancelled by the Indenture Trustee.

            The Issuer, the Indenture Trustee, and any agent of either of them
shall treat the Person in whose name this note is registered as the Noteholder
hereof (a) on the record date for purposes of receiving timely payment of
interest hereon, and (b) on the date of surrender of this note for purposes of
receiving payment of principal hereof at its stated maturity and (c) for all
other purposes, whether or not this note is overdue, and neither the Issuer, the
Indenture Trustee, nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the
contrary.

            To the extent permitted by the Indenture, modifications or
alterations of the Indenture and any supplemental indenture may be made with the
consent of less than all of the holders of the Notes then Outstanding or without
the consent of any of such Noteholders (by reason of a change in the Act or
Regulation or to cure ambiguities or conflicts), but such modification or
alteration is not permitted to affect the maturity date, Stated Maturity,
amount, Payment Date, or rate of interest on any Outstanding Notes or affect the
rights of the Noteholders of less than all of the Notes Outstanding.

            Any capitalized term used herein and not otherwise defined herein
shall have the same meaning ascribed to such term in the herein defined
Indenture unless the context shall clearly indicate otherwise.

            It is hereby certified and recited that all acts and things required
by the laws of the State of Delaware to happen, exist, and be performed
precedent to and in the issuance of this note, and the passage of said
resolution and the execution of said Indenture, have happened, exist and have
been performed as so required.
