 EXHIBIT 10.53 

RISK SHARING AGREEMENT 

This RISK SHARING AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”), dated as of February 20, 2009 (“Effective
Date”) is made between ITT EDUCATIONAL SERVICES, INC., a Delaware corporation, on behalf of itself and its affiliates and subsidiaries (“ITT ESI”) and STUDENT CU CONNECT CUSO, LLC, a Delaware limited liability

 ARTICLE I 

PURPOSE AND SCOPE 

SECTION 1.1 Purpose and Scope. Pursuant to the Program Agreement, the CUSO intends to conduct the Program utilizing the
Originating Entity to provide access for Students across the country to non-governmentally guaranteed student loans. The Originating Entity will originate Loans to Students. The CUSO will purchase Loans creating discrete annual pools based on dates
of disbursement of Loan proceeds. The CUSO will then participate its interest in the Loans among the Credit Unions. To induce the CUSO to both induce the Originating Entity to originate Loans and itself purchase such Loans and to induce the Credit
Unions to participate therein, ITT ESI has agreed to provide a guarantee for the Loans upon and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

 ARTICLE III 

ITT ESI RISK LOANS 

SECTION 3.1 ITT ESI Guaranty. ITT ESI shall have no liability whatsoever with respect to any Loans in any Loan Pool unless and
until such time as the aggregate amount that is Charged Off on Loans in such Loan Pool exceeds the First Loss Risk for such Loan Pool. ITT ESI hereby absolutely and unconditionally guarantees the full and prompt payment of all the ITT ESI Risk Loans
in each Loan Pool, as and in the manner hereinafter provided. For example, if a Loan Pool consists of Loans the aggregate Net Disbursements on which are $100,000,000 and the applicable First Loss Percentage for such Loan Pool is thirty-five percent
(35%), once an aggregate of $35,000,000 has been Charged Off on Loans in such Loan Pool, ITT ESI will have an obligation to make payments required under this Article III. 

SECTION 3.2 Monthly Report. So long as any Loans are outstanding in any Loan Pool, the CUSO shall provide or cause to be provided
to ITT ESI on or before the tenth (10th) Business Day after the CUSO has received its regular monthly report from the Servicer, a Monthly Report on such Loan Pool as of the end of the month
that is the subject of such report from the Servicer. 
 SECTION 3.3 Claim Package. Each Monthly Report for a Loan Pool shall
also be accompanied by a Claim Package. 
 SECTION 3.4 Payments. Within fifteen (15) days (or on the next Business Day if
such 15th day is not a Business Day) after receipt of the last of the required information, ITT ESI shall transfer, via electronic transfer, payment of the full amount of any ITT ESI Risk Payment
due for such month (net of the amount, if any, due to ITT ESI pursuant to Section 4.1 hereof) to such account as the CUSO may from time to time in writing designate to ITT ESI not less than ten (10) days before the due date
of any ITT ESI Risk Payment. 
 SECTION 3.5 Repayment of Risk Share Payment. In the event that ITT ESI shall make any ITT ESI
Risk Payment pursuant to Section 3.4 (directly or by way of offset), the CUSO shall reimburse ITT ESI therefor to the extent and in the manner provided in Article IV hereof. 

SECTION 3.6 Mature Loans. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 3.4, ITT ESI may, by written notice to the
CUSO, elect to discharge all its obligations under this Article III in respect of any Mature Loan for which an ITT ESI Risk Payment is then due by both (i) giving written notice thereof to the CUSO not less than five (5) days
before the due date for such ITT ESI Risk Payment and (ii) remitting, with such ITT ESI Risk Payment, the then outstanding balance plus accrued unpaid interest of such Mature Loan as reflected in the then current Monthly Report. ITT ESI may
also discharge all its obligations under this Article III in respect of any Charged Off Loan on which an ITT ESI Risk Payment is due but which is not yet a Mature Loan by giving the notice required with respect to a Mature Loan and, in
addition to the payment required for a Mature Loan, paying an amount equal to any additional interest that would otherwise have been payable before such Loan became a Mature Loan, subject to discount at the rate of ten percent (10%) per annum.
The CUSO shall reimburse ITT ESI for all payments made pursuant to this Section 3.6 to the extent and in the manner provided in Article IV hereof. Loans as to which ITT ESI has discharged all its obligations under
this Article III pursuant to this Section 3.6 shall, upon the payment provided for in this Section, no longer be considered an ITT ESI Risk Loan for any purpose under this Agreement. ITT ESI may, on reasonable notice
to the CUSO and the Servicer, remove from servicing by the Servicer any Loans on which ITT ESI has discharged its obligations under Article III pursuant to this Section 3.6 (each a “Removed
Loan”) and, after such removal, neither the CUSO nor the Servicer shall have any further servicing obligations or liabilities for any Removed Loan, other than the obligation to cooperate with ITT ESI’s reasonable requests for
administrative items (but their obligations and liabilities therefor arising prior to such removal shall be unaffected thereby). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the CUSO shall continue to own all Removed Loans and they shall remain a part of the Loan
Pool for the Funding Year in which they were originally disbursed. ITT ESI shall cause collected proceeds of Removed Loans, net of third party collection costs, to be remitted to or as directed by the CUSO (to be thereafter paid to ITT ESI, as
provided in Article IV to the extent of the CUSO’s reimbursement obligation pursuant to Section 3.5 and Section 3.6).

 SECTION 3.7 Nature of Guarantee. ITT ESI’s obligations hereunder are joint and
several and independent of the obligations of any Borrower and any other guarantor. ITT ESI’s obligations hereunder shall remain in effect until all Loans in each Loan Pool are either paid in full or ITT ESI has discharged its obligations with
respect thereto pursuant to Sections 3.4 and 3.6, notwithstanding any act, omission or thing that might otherwise operate as a legal or equitable discharge of ITT ESI or any Borrower, except any that otherwise arises as a
result of the fraudulent or grossly negligent action or inaction or willful misconduct of the CUSO. ITT ESI’s obligations hereunder are independent of and not in consideration of, or contingent upon, the liability of any other person under any
guarantee, surety or similar obligation, such as the obligation of a co-signer. The release of or death of, or cancellation by, any person or entity responsible under any such guarantee, surety or similar obligation will not act to release or
otherwise affect the continuing liability of ITT ESI; provided that any such release or cancellation is not a result of, or caused by, the fraudulent or grossly negligent action or inaction or willful misconduct of the CUSO. Any partial payment by
any Borrower or other circumstance which operates to toll any statute of limitations as to any Borrower will operate equally to toll the statute of limitations as to ITT ESI. Notwithstanding the foregoing, ITT ESI shall have no liability hereunder
in respect of any Loan as to which there is a breach of any representation or warranty by the CUSO set forth in the Program Agreement, excepting only (a) any breach that is the direct result of any fraud, willful misconduct or gross negligence
by ITT ESI, and (b) any breach by the CUSO of Section 2.16(a) of the Program Agreement that is the direct result of either (i) an error by the Origination Vendor or (ii) the failure by the Origination Vendor to comply with
instructions of the Originating Entity, in each case in connection with the origination of such Loan. 
 SECTION 3.8 Information and
Audit Rights. 
 (a) The CUSO shall cause the Servicer to provide to ITT ESI and any designee of ITT ESI all reports
(both regular and special) and other data which the Servicer shall provide to the CUSO contemporaneously with such provision and in the same format as is provided to the CUSO. 

(b) Promptly upon request therefor, the CUSO shall provide to ITT ESI such information regarding the Loans as ITT ESI may,
from time to time, request, including, without limitation, information regarding the servicing and collection of the Loans and any alterations made to any Loans, as provided in Section 3.9. 

  
 3 








 (c) Upon at least five (5) Business Days prior notice to the CUSO, ITT ESI
shall be afforded access to all documents and records relating to Loans and/or the Program to inspect and audit the same (either itself or through a third-party auditor). Any such inspection or audit shall be at ITT ESI’s sole expense;
provided, however, that if any such inspection or audit shall reveal that the records or reporting with respect to any Loan Pool reflect material inaccuracies with respect to Loans, the Net Disbursements on which aggregate in excess of 10% of the
aggregate Net Disbursements on all Loans in such Loan Pool, then, within ten (10) days of demand therefor by ITT ESI, the CUSO shall reimburse ITT ESI for its out-of-pocket costs for such inspection or audit, including without limitation the
fees and costs of any third-party auditor. 
 SECTION 3.9 Alteration of Borrower Obligations. From time to time, the CUSO may
modify or renew terms of any Loan (or any documentation or collateral therefor), without thereby releasing ITT ESI from its guarantee provided that such modification is within the Loan Criteria or the Collection and Charge Off Standards. However,
any alteration described above that reduces the amount that a Borrower is obligated to pay under a Loan will similarly reduce ITT ESI’s guarantee obligations with respect thereto. Further, any forbearance, revision, modification, extension,
amendment, or other change to any Loan in any manner inconsistent with the Loan Criteria or the Collection and Charge Off Standards, will disqualify such Loan as an ITT ESI Risk Loan. 

SECTION 3.10 Multiple Disbursements. The parties acknowledge that individual Loans may be funded in multiple disbursements and, as
a result, funded over different Funding Years. For all purposes under this Agreement, a Loan will be deemed made in a Funding Year only to the extent disbursed in that Funding Year regardless of when originated. For example, assuming a $9,000 Loan
disbursed in three (3) equal parts, one (1) in Funding Year 2009 and two (2) in Funding Year 2010, the initial $3,000 disbursement would be deemed a separate Loan that would be included in the Loan Pool for Funding Year 2009 and the
later $6,000 aggregate disbursements would be deemed a separate Loan that would be included in the Loan Pool for Funding Year 2010. 

SECTION 3.11 Certain Loans. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, any Loan procured through fraud, willful
misconduct or gross negligence by an ITT ESI employee shall, upon written notice from the CUSO to ITT ESI (identifying such Loan and describing the fraud, willful misconduct or gross negligence by the ITT ESI employee), be deemed a Charged Off ITT
ESI Risk Loan without regard to whether the First Loss Risk for the applicable Loan Pool has been exceeded. ITT ESI may, at any time, discharge its obligations with respect to any such Loan as if it were a Mature Loan subject to
Section 3.6, regardless of the number of monthly payments made thereon and, in such event, any such Loan shall no longer be considered an ITT ESI Risk Loan for any purpose under this Agreement. 

SECTION 3.12 Benefit to Credit Unions. It is acknowledged and agreed both that (i) the Credit Unions will indirectly benefit
from the guaranty and other obligations undertaken by ITT ESI pursuant to this Agreement, the Security Agreement and the Program Agreement and (ii) enforcement of such guaranty and obligations shall be effected exclusively through the
CUSO.

 ARTICLE IV 

REPAYMENT OF ITT ESI/APPLICATION OF 

CHARGED OFF LOAN PROCEEDS 

SECTION 4.1 Repayment of ITT ESI/Application of Proceeds of Charged Off Loans. The CUSO’s reimbursement obligations pursuant
to Section 3.5 and Section 3.6 shall be payable by the CUSO only to the extent that collected proceeds in respect of Charged Off Loans in the Loan Pool to which such reimbursement obligations relate (whether
subject to First Loss Risk or an ITT ESI Risk Loan, and any Loans as to which ITT ESI has discharged its obligations pursuant to Section 3.4, Section 3.6, or Section 3.11) are received by or
on behalf of the CUSO while there are any such unsatisfied reimbursement obligations. For the avoidance of confusion, once ITT ESI has made any ITT ESI Risk Payment or other payment pursuant to Article III on any Loan Pool, until such
time as ITT ESI has recovered all ITT ESI Risk Payments or other payment pursuant to Article III made (or offset) on such Loan Pool, it shall be entitled to all proceeds of all Charged Off Loans in such Loan Pool until ITT ESI has been
fully reimbursed therefor. Thereafter, ITT ESI shall be entitled to no proceeds on such Charged Off Loans unless and until it again makes an ITT ESI Risk Payment or other payment pursuant to Article III (or offset) on such Loan Pool.
By way of further clarification, ITT ESI is not entitled to reimbursement on any Loans that are not Charged Off Loans, whether they be First Risk Loans or ITT ESI Risk Loans. 

SECTION 4.2 Timing and Manner of Payment. Any sums payable to ITT ESI in respect of a Charged Off Loan pursuant to
Section 4.1 shall be paid to ITT ESI at the time and in the same manner as payment is required to be made to Credit Unions that are participants in the Loan Pool of which such Charged Off Loan is a part. 

Section 4.3 Disclosure. The CUSO shall disclose to all Credit Unions ITT ESI’s right to proceeds of Charged Off Loans
pursuant to Section 4.1. The CUSO agrees, and all participation certificates shall provide, that the rights of the CUSO and each Credit Union in respect of proceeds of Charged Off Loans are expressly subordinated to the rights
thereto of ITT ESI hereunder. 
 ARTICLE V 

TERM/TERMINATION; SERVICING 

SECTION 5.1 Term. This Agreement shall be for an Initial Term commencing on the Effective Date and ending December 31, 2011
and shall automatically renew for successive Renewal Terms of one (1) year each, unless not less than one (1) year prior to the end of the Initial Term or any Renewal Term, either party hereto shall provide notice to the other party of
either (i) such party’s intent to terminate this Agreement as of the end of the then current Term, or (ii) its desire that the First Loss Percentage and/or the Collateralization Percentage be changed for the Renewal Term (indicating
the First Loss Percentage and/or the Collateralization Percentage desired). In the first such instance, this Agreement shall terminate as of the end of the then current Term. In the second such instance, the parties shall endeavor to negotiate in
good faith for a First Loss Percentage and/or a Collateralization Percentage acceptable to all parties and, if they are successful, such First Loss Percentage and/or such Collateralization Percentage shall be the First Loss Percentage and/or the
Collateralization Percentage for the succeeding Renewal Term and thereafter. 
  

  
 5 








 SECTION 5.2 Termination. If, in a situation to which clause (ii) of
Section 5.1 is applicable, the parties are unsuccessful in negotiating a First Loss Percentage and/or a Collateralization Percentage acceptable to both parties by two hundred seventy (270) days before the end of the then
current Term, this Agreement shall automatically terminate as of the end of the then current Term. This Agreement may also be terminated as provided in Section 8.4. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, this
Agreement shall also automatically terminate upon termination of the Program Agreement, for any reason. In no event may ITT ESI terminate this Agreement other than at the end of the then current Term except in the case of an Event of Default by the
CUSO or termination of the Program Agreement. 
 SECTION 5.3 Effect of Termination. Regardless of the reason for termination of
this Agreement (including pursuant to Section 8.4(a)), (a) such termination will not affect the validity of any Loans made prior to such termination, (b) the existing obligations of the terminating party and the other
party regarding such Loans shall remain in effect, and (c) all Loans originated while this Agreement is in effect shall remain subject to the terms of this Agreement until the last such Loan in the last Loan Pool has been paid in full. 

SECTION 5.4 Loan Servicing. The CUSO, through a Servicer, will service all Loans in accordance with the terms of the Servicing
Agreement and the Collection and Charge Off Standards. All Servicing Agreements, and all amendments or modifications thereto, shall be subject to ITT ESI’s prior approval. Errors and/or omissions by a Servicer shall not affect the obligations
of either party hereunder. 
 ARTICLE VI 

COLLATERALIZATION BY ITT ESI 

SECTION 6.1 Collateralization by ITT ESI. So long as any Loans remain outstanding that are subject to ITT ESI obligations pursuant
to Article III, ITT ESI shall secure its obligations thereunder with respect to each Loan Pool containing such Loans by pledging, as provided in the Security Agreement of even date herewith of which Exhibit 6.1 is a copy,
Collateral in the form of cash, government or agency securities, and/or one or more letters of credit, all in an aggregate amount equal to (i) the Collateralization Percentage applicable to such Loan Pool times (ii) the product of
(x) the First Loss Percentage applicable to such Loan Pool times (y) the then principal balance of all Loans in such Loan Pool that are subject to ITT ESI obligations pursuant to Article III, or, if the First Loss Risk has
been exceeded, all ITT ESI Risk Loans in such Loan Pool. To the extent ITT ESI uses cash or government or agency securities, (a) such Collateral shall be held in a restricted account as Collateral for the benefit of the CUSO with one or more
Designated Financial Institutions and subject to an appropriate account control or other similar security agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to both the CUSO and ITT ESI; and (b) ITT ESI shall be entitled to all earnings
thereon. If ITT ESI shall fulfill any part of its obligations pursuant to this Section 6.1 by providing any letter of credit, ITT ESI shall renew or provide substitute letters of credit (or establish a restricted account as above
provided) therefor not less than ten (10) days before the expiration of any such letter of credit. During 2009, not less than two-thirds (2/3) of the Collateral required to be maintained shall consist of cash, government or agency
securities. After the end of 2009, not less than one-third (1/3) of the Collateral required to be maintained for each Loan Pool shall consist of cash, government or agency securities; provided, however, that, if and so long as the
Collateralization Percentage for the Loan Pool for Funding Year 2009 is increased pursuant to Section 6.3, not less than two-thirds (2/3) of the Collateral required to be maintained for such Loan Pool shall consist of cash,
government or agency securities. 
  

  
 6 








 SECTION 6.2 Establishment and Adjustment of Collateral. 

(a) Establishment of Initial Collateral for Each Funding Year. The initial collateralization for each Loan Pool for
each Funding Year shall be determined for each Funding Period in each such Funding Year in accordance with the following: (i) not less than twelve (12) Business Days before the First Disbursement Date of the first Funding Period, in any
Funding Year, ITT ESI shall both provide the CUSO with ITT ESI’s good faith estimate of the aggregate original sum to be disbursed on all Loans during such Funding Period and, on or before the First Disbursement Date of such Funding Period,
shall provide the initial collateralization required for such Loan Pool for such Funding Period (based upon such estimate); (ii) within twelve (12) Business Days before the First Disbursement Date of each subsequent Funding Period in such
Funding Year, ITT ESI shall provide the CUSO with ITT ESI’s good faith estimate of the original sum to be disbursed on all Loans during such subsequent Funding Period and, on or before the First Disbursement Date of such Funding Period, ITT ESI
shall provide the initial collateralization required for such Funding Period, subject to adjustment as provided in clause (iv) hereof; (iii) not less than twelve (12) Business Days before the First Disbursement Date of a Funding
Period other than the first Funding Period for a Funding Year, the CUSO shall provide ITT ESI with all of (1) a detailed summary of Loans then in the Loan Pool for such Funding Year, (2) the aggregate current balances of all Loans then in
such Loan Pool and (3) the amount of Collateral that ITT ESI is required to maintain for the subject Loan Pool based on the formula set forth in Section 6.1; and (iv) if the amount of Collateral required based upon the
summary provided in accordance with clause (iii) hereof exceeds or is exceeded by the amount of Collateral then provided by ITT ESI for the applicable Loan Pool pursuant to this Section, the amount of any deficiency shall be added to, and the
amount of any excess shall be credited against, the amount of Collateral that ITT ESI is required to provide pursuant to clause (ii) hereof. Contemporaneously with each establishment and adjustment of Collateral pursuant to this
Section 6.2(a), ITT ESI shall send evidence, reasonably satisfactory to the CUSO, of the amount of such Collateral actually provided. After the adjustment for the last Funding Period for a Loan Pool provided for at clause
(iv) above, the amount of Collateral required with respect to such Loan Pool shall be adjusted as provided in Section 6.2(b). 

(b) Adjustment of Collateral. Commencing with the fourth calendar quarter of the Funding Year for each Loan Pool,
within fifteen (15) days after the end of each calendar quarter, the CUSO will provide ITT ESI with a detailed summary of all of the Loans in such Loan Pool, or, if the First Loss Risk has been exceeded, all of the ITT ESI Risk Loans in such
Loan Pool, the aggregate principal balances of Loans in such Loan Pool, or, if the First Loss Risk has been exceeded, the aggregate principal balances of all ITT ESI Risk Loans in such Loan Pool, in each case as of the end of such calendar quarter,
and the amount of Collateral that ITT ESI is required to maintain with respect to such Loan Pool based on the formula set forth in Section 6.1 applied to such aggregate balances. Within thirty (30) days after receipt of each
summary provided above, ITT ESI will both (i) adjust, upwards or downwards, the amount of Collateral it is required to maintain pursuant to this Article and (ii) send evidence, reasonably satisfactory to the CUSO, of the adjusted amount of
such Collateral actually provided. 
  

  
 7 








 SECTION 6.3 Increase of Collateral in the Event of Default by ITT ESI. In the event
ITT ESI shall violate any of the financial covenants or percentages set forth in Section 7.2(b), the Collateralization Percentage applicable to each Loan Pool shall be increased by sixty-six and two-thirds percent (66-2/3%)
and ITT ESI shall provide such additional Collateral within thirty (30) days after written demand therefor by the CUSO; provided however that, if the Collateralization Percentage is increased on account of ITT ESI’s violation of any
financial covenant or percentage and ITT ESI thereafter becomes in compliance therewith, the Collateralization Percentage for each Loan Pool shall thereafter be restored to its original amount. For example, if the Collateralization Percentage for a
Loan Pool would otherwise be 15%, while ITT ESI is in violation of the financial covenants and percentages set forth in Section 7.2(b), the Collateralization Percentage shall be 25%. 

ARTICLE VII 

REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND COVENANTS 

SECTION 7.1 Representations and Warranties of Each Party. Each of the parties hereto, severally and not jointly, makes the
following representations and warranties to the other party hereto, which representations and warranties shall be deemed to be continuing so long as either party has any obligations under this Agreement: 

(a) Existence and Rights. Such party is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its
jurisdiction of organization and is duly qualified to transact operations in all places where such qualification is legally required. Such party has the corporate power and authority, rights and franchises to own its property and to carry on its
business as now conducted. Such party has the corporate power and authority and legal right to enter into this Agreement and to perform its obligations hereunder. 

(b) Agreement Authorized. The making and performance by such party of this Agreement: (i) have been duly
authorized by all necessary corporate action; (ii) do not require the consent or approval of any governmental body, regulatory authority, court or official, except such as have already been obtained and are in full force and effect;
(iii) do not violate or contravene or constitute a default under any provision of law or regulation or such party’s charter or by-laws or any judgment, injunction, order, or mortgage, security agreement, indenture or other agreement or
instrument, to which such party is a party or by which such party or any of its property may be bound or affected; and (iv) will not result in the creation or imposition of any lien or security interest on any property of such party other than
as is provided in this Agreement. This Agreement is the legal, valid and binding general obligation of such party enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar laws
generally relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights or by general principles of equity. 
  

  
 8 








 (c) Litigation. There is no suit, tax claim or other proceeding pending
against or, to the knowledge of such party, threatened against, or affecting such party or any of its property before any court or by or before any governmental authority which, if adversely determined, would materially adversely affect such
party’s ability to make and perform this Agreement. 
 (d) No Event of Default. No Event of Default by such
party or other event which, with the giving of notice or lapse of time or both, would become an Event of Default under this Agreement, has occurred and is continuing or will occur by reason of the execution or performance of this Agreement. 

SECTION 7.2 Representations, Warranties and Covenants of ITT ESI. 

(a) Representations and Warranties. ITT ESI represents and warrants to the CUSO that the financial statements of ITT
ESI as of December 31, 2007 and for the fiscal year then ended and as of the quarter ended September 30, 2008 and for the three (3) month period then ended, copies of which have been delivered to the CUSO, fairly present in all
material respects, in conformity with GAAP, consistently applied, the financial position of ITT ESI as of such dates and its results of operations and changes in financial position for the periods then ended; provided, however, that it shall not be
deemed to be a breach of this representation and warranty if such financial statements are the subject of a subsequent restatement, as long as such restatement is not the result of misconduct. Except as set forth in public filings with the SEC,
since September 30, 2008, there has been no material adverse change in the business, financial position, results of operations or prospects of ITT ESI. 

(b) Covenants. ITT ESI covenants with the CUSO as follows, which covenants shall continue so long as any ITT ESI Risk
Loans shall be outstanding: 
 (1) Financial Covenants. During the Term of this Agreement, and thereafter, while any ITT ESI Risk
Loans remain outstanding, measured at the end of each fiscal quarter based on ITT ESI’s quarterly and year-end financial statements reported in its Forms 10-Q and 10-K, respectively, filed with the SEC, ITT ESI will maintain: 

a. Debt Service Ratio. A debt service ratio that is equal to or greater than 1.2 to 1, defined as earnings before interest, income
taxes, depreciation and amortization divided by the current portion of long-term debt plus interest expense; 
 b. Long-term Debt to
Equity Ratio. A long-term debt to equity ratio, defined as loans and other liabilities with terms extending over one year divided by the shareholders’ equity of ITT ESI, of equal to or less than 5 to 1; 

 

  
 9 








 c. Current Ratio. A current ratio, defined as the current assets (assets to be sold or
used up in less than one year and any cash or securities pledged as Collateral under this Agreement) divided by the current liabilities (loans or other liabilities with remaining terms of less than one year and the current portion of long-term
debt), of ITT ESI, equal to or greater than 1 to 1. This calculation excludes all unsecured and uncollateralized related-party receivables and payables. 

For purposes of the foregoing financial covenants, the term “debt” shall not include any securities issued by ITT ESI or a
consolidated entity that are convertible into equity securities or a combination of equity securities and cash. 
 (2) Persistence
Percentage. During the Term of this Agreement, and thereafter, while any ITT ESI Risk Loans remain outstanding, measured at the end of each fiscal quarter based on ITT ESI’s quarterly and annual reports filed with the SEC, ITT ESI will
maintain an average persistence percentage over the eight fiscal quarters ending on the measurement date of not less than 70%, calculated on a straight average basis. 

(3) Compliance Certificate. Within thirty (30) days after the earlier of the date its Form 10-Q or Form 10-K, as the case may be,
is filed or required to be filed with the SEC, ITT ESI will furnish to the CUSO a certificate setting forth the status of ITT ESI’s compliance with the financial covenants and persistence percentage set forth in
Section 7.2(b) as of the end of such fiscal quarter in the case of a Form 10-Q and fiscal year in the case of a Form 10-K, in each case signed by one of its officers. 

(c) Corporate Existence. Except as permitted by Section 8.7(i), during the Term of this Agreement,
ITT ESI will not initiate any proceedings or take any action to dissolve or liquidate or to terminate its existence as a corporation or otherwise dispose of all or a substantial part of its assets, either in a single transaction or in a series of
related transactions. 
 ARTICLE VIII 

GENERAL PROVISIONS 

SECTION 8.1 Confidentiality. Each of the parties shall keep all Confidential Information as confidential and will not, without
each other party’s prior written consent, disclose any portion of the Confidential Information to anyone other than to persons who are representatives of such party. No party will (and will cause its representatives not to) use any of the
Confidential Information for any purpose other than in connection with its responsibilities under this Agreement and the Program. Each party will inform its representatives of the confidential nature of the Confidential Information and direct each
representative to treat the Confidential Information as confidential. Promptly after either party shall gain knowledge of any unauthorized use or disclosure of any Confidential Information, the party gaining such knowledge shall notify the other
party of such use or disclosure so that, to the extent then possible, mitigating actions can be taken. 
  

  
 10 








 SECTION 8.2 Information Excluded From Confidentiality Obligations Set Forth Above.
Nothing in this Agreement will be deemed to prevent either party from disclosing any Confidential Information to the extent required by any applicable law, regulation or court order, including, without limitation, applicable securities laws,
provided that (i) unless prohibited by law, regulation or court order (including applicable securities or credit union laws), such disclosing party, other than ITT ESI with respect to any information disclosed by ITT ESI under applicable
securities laws and regulations, will notify the non-disclosing party of the imminent disclosure as soon as is practicable and in all events with sufficient prior notice to allow the non-disclosing party to seek a protective order or otherwise to
object; and (ii) the disclosing party will use commercially reasonable best efforts to minimize or prevent such disclosure to the maximum extent allowed under applicable law, regulation or court order. Confidential Information does not include
any such information which: (1) was or becomes generally available to the public other than as a result of a disclosure by the receiving party or its representatives; (2) was within the receiving party’s possession prior to being
furnished by or on behalf of the other party; (3) is furnished to the receiving party by a third party who has represented to the receiving party that she/he is not under an obligation of confidentiality to the other party; or (4) is
independently developed by the receiving party without the use of any Confidential Information. 
 SECTION 8.3 Customer
Information. Neither party shall disclose to any third party (other than its employees and/or representatives) or use any Customer Information, except solely to carry out the purposes under this Agreement for which such Customer Information was
disclosed. Promptly after either party gains knowledge of any unauthorized use or disclosure of any Customer Information, the party gaining such knowledge shall notify the other party of such use or disclosure so that, to the extent then possible,
mitigating actions can be taken. 
 SECTION 8.4 Event of Default and Remedies. If an Event of Default occurs, then, and in every
such event, the non-defaulting party may do any one or more of the following (without presentment, protest or notice of protest, all of which are expressly waived by the defaulting party): 

(a) terminate this Agreement immediately upon written notice to the other party; and 

(b) exercise all other rights legally available to it. 

 

  
 11 








 As used herein, “Event of Default” shall mean any of the following: 

(1) if a party materially fails to perform any of its covenants or agreements herein and such failure, if capable of being cured, continues
for 30 days without cure after written notice from the non-defaulting party specifying the nature of such failure (provided however that in no event shall ITT ESI’s breach of any covenant contained in Section 7.2 be deemed an
Event of Default hereunder); or 
 (2) the filing by a party to this Agreement of a petition in bankruptcy or a proposed or actual
assignment for the benefit of creditors or a similar proceeding by a party; or 
 (3) the filing against a party of a petition in bankruptcy

of the Collateral, ITT ESI covenants, warrants and represents that:

has reason to believe is pending or threatened. ITT ESI will promptly pay when due all taxes and all other such charges and fees affecting or arising out of or relating to the Collateral and shall defend the Collateral, at ITT ESI’s sole
expense, against all claims and demands of any Persons claiming any interest in the Collateral adverse to the CUSO.

including, without limitation, the payment of any taxes and the satisfaction or discharge of any judgment or any Lien upon the Collateral; provided, however, that the making of any such advance by the CUSO shall not constitute a waiver by the CUSO
of any Event of Default with respect to which such advance is made nor relieve ITT ESI of any such Event of Default. ITT ESI shall pay to the CUSO upon demand all such advances made by the CUSO. All such advances shall be deemed to be included in
the Obligations to which they relate and secured by the security interest in the related Loan Pool Collateral; provided, however, that the provisions of this Subsection shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the CUSO’s security
interest hereunder and the payment of all other Obligations. 
 SECTION 9.2 Waivers by ITT ESI. ITT ESI waives, to the extent
the same may be waived under applicable law: (a) notice of acceptance of this Agreement; and (b) upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, with respect to any Loan Pool (i) all rights of redemption of ITT ESI with respect to the
related Loan Pool Collateral, (ii) presentment, demand for payment, protest and notice of non-payment and all exemptions with respect to such Loan Pool and/or the related Loan Pool Collateral,
(iii) any and all other notices or demands which by applicable law must be given to or made upon ITT ESI by the CUSO with respect to such Loan Pool and/or the related Loan Pool Collateral, (iv) settlement, compromise or release of the
obligations of any person primarily or secondarily liable upon any of the Obligations with respect to such Loan Pool and/or the related Loan Pool Collateral, and (v) substitution, impairment, exchange or release of any related Loan Pool
Collateral. Subject to the provisions of Section 2.1 and Article VIII hereof, ITT ESI agrees that the CUSO may exercise any or all of its rights and/or remedies under the Security Documents and under applicable
law without resorting to and without regard to any Collateral or other sources of liability with respect to any of the Obligations. 

SECTION 9.3 Release and Termination. Within ten (10) days following both all Obligations having been satisfied in full as to
any Loan Pool (whether paid, terminated or otherwise discharged) and there existing no commitment by the CUSO that could give rise to any additional Obligations as to such Loan Pool, the CUSO shall (i) release control of any security interest
in all related Collateral perfected by control (including without limitation providing notice to the depository institution or intermediary of termination of any subject Deposit Account Control Agreement or Securities Account Control Agreement),
(ii) return all Letters of Credit related thereto to ITT ESI, and (iii) terminate any financing statement filed against the related Collateral.

 SECTION 9.4 Waivers. Neither any failure nor any delay on the part of any party in
exercising any right, power or remedy, under any of the Security Documents or under applicable law shall operate as a waiver thereof by such party, nor shall a single or partial exercise thereof by any party preclude any other or further exercise
thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy by such party. 
 SECTION 9.5 Modifications. No modifications or
waiver of any provision of any of the Security Documents shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing signed by both parties, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose
for which given. No notice to or demand upon ITT ESI in any case shall entitle ITT ESI to any other or further notice or demand in the same, similar or other circumstances related. 

SECTION 9.6 Notices. Any notice, request or other communication in connection with this Agreement shall be subject to the
provisions of the Risk Sharing Agreement concerning notice. 
 SECTION 9.7 Applicable Law and Consent to Jurisdiction. The
performance and construction of the Security Documents shall be governed by the laws of the State of Indiana. 
 SECTION 9.8
Survival: Successors and Assigns. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made in any of the Security Documents shall survive the execution and delivery thereof, and shall continue in full force and effect until all
Obligations have been satisfied in full (whether paid, terminated or otherwise discharged), and there exists no commitment by the CUSO which could give rise to any Obligations. Whenever in this Agreement any of the parties hereto is referred to,
such reference shall be deemed to include the successors and assigns of such party. The CUSO shall not assign the Risk Sharing Agreement, any of the Security Documents and/or all or any part of its security interest in the Collateral without ITT
ESI’s express prior written consent, which consent may be withheld or delayed for any reason or for no reason. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties by or on behalf of ITT ESI which are contained in any of the Security
Documents shall inure to the benefit of the CUSO, its successors and assigns. ITT ESI may not assign this Agreement or any of its rights hereunder without the prior written consent of the CUSO which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or
delayed. 
 SECTION 9.9 Severability. If any term, provision or condition, or any part thereof, of this Agreement or any of the
Loan Documents shall for any reason be found or held invalid or unenforceable by any court or governmental agency of competent jurisdiction, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect the remainder of such term, provision or condition nor
any other term, provision or condition, and this Agreement and the Security Documents shall survive and be construed as if such invalid or unenforceable term, provision or condition had not been contained therein. 

 

  
 10 








 SECTION 9.10 Merger and Integration. The Security Documents (with the Risk Sharing
Agreement and the Program Documents) contain the entire agreement of the parties hereto with respect to the matters covered and the transactions contemplated hereby, and no other agreement, statement or promise made by any party hereto, or by any
employee, officer, agent or attorney of any party hereto, which is not contained herein shall be valid or binding. 
 SECTION 9.11
Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto on separate counterparts, each of which, when so executed and delivered, shall be an original, but all such counterparts shall together
constitute one and the same instrument. 
 SECTION 9.12 Headings. The headings and
sub-headings contained in the titling of this Agreement are intended to be used for convenience only and shall not be used or deemed to limit or diminish any of the provisions hereof. 

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have executed or caused this Agreement to be executed as of the date first above written.

 SECURITY AGREEMENT 

DEPOSIT ACCOUNT CONTROL AGREEMENT 

Deposit Account Control Agreement (this “Agreement”), dated as of <DATE>,
20            , by and among STUDENT CU CONNECT CUSO, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Secured Party”); ITT EDUCATIONAL SERVICES, INC., a Delaware
corporation (“Debtor”); and <NAME OF BANK> with an address at <ADDRESS OF BANK> (“Bank”). 

PREAMBLE: 
 Debtor has
granted Secured Party a security interest in a deposit account maintained by Bank for Debtor. The parties are entering into this agreement to perfect Secured Party’s security interest in that account. 

TERMS: 
 Section 1.
The Account. Bank maintains a deposit account for Debtor, currently numbered <NUMBER> and titled <TITLE OF ACCOUNT> (as such account may be renumbered or retitled, the “Account”). All parties
agree that the Account is a “deposit account” within the meaning of Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code of the State of Indiana (the “UCC”). 

Section 2. Control. Bank will comply with instructions originated by Secured Party directing disposition of the funds in the
Account without further consent by Debtor. Except as provided below, Bank will not permit the withdrawal or other disposition of any funds in the Account by Debtor without Secured Party’s prior written consent. Until such time as Secured Party
delivers a written notice to Bank that Secured Party is thereby exercising exclusive control over the Account (a “Notice of Exclusive Control”), Bank will (i) distribute to ITT ESI monthly all earnings on the Account and
(ii) comply with instructions directing the disposition of funds in the Account originated by Debtor or its authorized representatives and accompanied by a certification from an officer of Debtor to the effect that such disposition will not
cause Debtor to be in violation of its collateralization obligations pursuant to Article VI of that certain Risk Sharing Agreement between Debtor and Creditor dated <DATE>, 2009, as from time to time amended, modified or supplemented.
Bank will send a copy of any Notice of Exclusive Control that it receives to Debtor within three (3) business days after receipt thereof. After Bank receives a Notice of Exclusive Control and has had reasonable opportunity to comply, it will
cease complying with instructions concerning the Account or funds on deposit therein originated by Debtor or its representatives. Bank has not and will not agree with any third party to comply with instructions or other directions concerning the
Account or the disposition of funds in the Account originated by such third party without the prior written consent of Secured Party and Debtor. 

  
 12 








 Section 3. Subordination Of Bank’s Security Interest. Bank hereby subordinates
all security interests, encumbrances, claims and rights of setoff it may have, now or in the future, against the Account or any funds in the Account other than in connection with the payment of Bank’s customary fees and charges pursuant to its
agreement with Debtor and for the reversal of provisional credits. 
 Section 4. Statements, Confirmations And Notices Of Adverse
Claims. Bank will send copies of all statements concerning the Account to each of Debtor and Secured Party at the addresses set forth following their signatures hereto. Bank will provide Secured Party with such information concerning the Account
as Secured Party shall from time to time request, provided Debtor would otherwise be entitled to such information. Upon receipt of written notice of any lien, encumbrance or adverse claim against the Account or any funds credited thereto, Bank will
make reasonable efforts promptly to notify Secured Party and Debtor thereof. 
 Section 5. Bank’s Responsibility. Except
for acting on Debtor’s instructions in violation of Section 2 above, Bank shall have no responsibility or liability to Secured Party for complying with instructions concerning the Account from Debtor or Debtor’s
authorized representatives which are received by Bank before Bank receives a Notice of Exclusive Control and has had reasonable opportunity to act on it. Bank shall have no responsibility or liability to Debtor for complying with a Notice of
Exclusive Control or complying with instructions concerning the Account originated by Secured Party, and shall have no responsibility to investigate the appropriateness of any such instruction or Notice of Exclusive Control, unless (i) Bank
takes the action after it is served with an injunction, restraining order or other legal process enjoining it from doing so issued by a court of competent jurisdiction and had reasonable opportunity to act on the injunction, restraining order or
other legal process or (ii) Bank acts in collusion with Secured Party in violating Debtor’s rights. 
 Section 6.
Indemnity. Debtor and Secured Party hereby agree to indemnify and hold harmless Bank, its directors, officers, agents and employees against any and all claims, causes of action, liabilities, lawsuits, demands and damages, including without
limitation, any and all court costs and reasonable attorney’s fees, in any way related to or arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or any action taken or not taken by Bank pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, except to the
extent caused by Bank’s gross negligence or willful misconduct or Bank’s breach of any of the provisions hereof. 

Section 7. Customer Agreement. In the event of a conflict between this Agreement and any other agreement between the Bank and the
Debtor relating to the Account, the terms of this Agreement will prevail; provided, however, that this Agreement shall not alter or affect any mandatory arbitration provision currently in effect between Bank and Debtor pursuant to a separate
agreement. 
 Section 8. Termination. This Agreement shall continue in effect until Secured Party has notified Bank in writing
that this Agreement, or its security interest in the Account, is terminated. 

  
 13 








 Upon receipt of such notice, the obligations of Bank hereunder with respect to the operation and
maintenance of the Account after the receipt of such notice shall terminate, Secured Party shall have no further right to originate instructions concerning the Account and any previous Notice of Exclusive Control delivered by Secured Party shall be
deemed to be of no further force and effect. 
 Section 9. Complete Agreement; Amendments. This Agreement sets forth the entire
agreement of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, and, subject to Section 7 above supersedes any prior agreement and contemporaneous oral agreements of the parties concerning its subject matter. No amendment,
modification or (except as otherwise specified in Section 8 above) termination of this Agreement, nor any assignment of any rights hereunder (except to the extent contemplated under Section 12 below), shall be
binding on any party hereto unless it is in writing and is signed by each of the parties hereto, and any attempt to so amend, modify, terminate or assign except pursuant to such a writing shall be null and void. No waiver of any rights hereunder
shall be binding on any party hereto unless such waiver is in writing and signed by the party against whom enforcement is sought. 

Section 10. Governing Law. This Agreement and the agreement governing the Account shall be governed by and construed in accordance
with the law of the State of Indiana. The parties agree that said State of Indiana is the “bank’s jurisdiction” for purposes of the UCC. 

Section 11. Severability. To the extent a provision of this Agreement is unenforceable, this Agreement will be construed as if the
unenforceable provision were omitted. 
 Section 12. Successors And Assigns. The terms of this Agreement shall be binding upon,
and shall inure to the benefit of, the parties hereto and their respective successors, heirs and personal representatives. This Agreement may be assigned by Secured Party to any successor of Secured Party under and only as permitted in its Security
Agreement with Debtor, provided that written notice thereof is given by Secured Party to Bank. 
 Section 13. Notices. Except as
otherwise expressly provided herein, any notice, order, instruction, request or other communication required or permitted to be given under this Agreement shall be in writing and deemed to have been properly given when delivered in person, or when
sent by telecopy or other electronic means and electronic confirmation of error-free receipt is received or upon receipt of notice sent by certified or registered United States mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, addressed to the party
at the address set forth after such party’s signature hereto. Any party may change its address for notices in the manner set forth above. 

Section 14. Jury Waiver. EACH PARTY WAIVES ITS RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL WITH RESPECT TO ANY ACTION OR CLAIM ARISING OUT OF ANY
DISPUTE IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT, ANY RIGHTS, REMEDIES, OBLIGATIONS, OR DUTIES HEREUNDER, OR THE PERFORMANCE OR ENFORCEMENT HEREOF OR THEREOF.

 Section 15. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of
counterparts, all of which shall constitute one and the same instrument, and any party hereto may execute this Agreement by signing and delivering one or more counterparts.

 EXHIBIT 1.1(f) 

TO 
 SECURITY AGREEMENT

 SECURITIES ACCOUNT CONTROL AGREEMENT 

Securities Account Control Agreement (this “Agreement”), dated as of <DATE>,
20            , by and among STUDENT CU CONNECT CUSO, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Secured Party”); ITT EDUCATIONAL SERVICES, INC., a Delaware
corporation (“Debtor”); and <NAME OF SECURITIES INTERMEDIARY> with an address at <ADDRESS OF SECURITIES INTERMEDIARY> (“Intermediary”). 

PREAMBLE: 
 Debtor has
granted Secured Party a security interest in a securities account maintained by Intermediary for Debtor. The parties are entering into this Agreement to perfect Secured Party’s security interest in that account. 

TERMS: 
 Section 1.
The Account. Intermediary represents and warrants to Secured Party that: 
 1.1 Intermediary maintains a securities account number
<NUMBER> for Debtor titled <TITLE OF ACCOUNT> (as such account may be renumbered or retitled, the “Account”). 

1.2 Exhibit A is a statement produced by Intermediary in the ordinary course of its business regarding the property credited to
the Account at the statement’s date. Intermediary does not know of any inaccuracy in such statement. 
 1.3 Intermediary does not know
of any claim to or interest in the Account, except for claims and interests of the parties referred to in this Agreement. 
 1.4 All
property credited to the Account, and all other rights of Debtor against Intermediary arising out of the Account, including any free credit balances, will be treated as “financial assets” under Article 8 of the Indiana Uniform Commercial
Code. 
 Section 2. Control By Secured Party. Intermediary will comply with all notifications it receives directing it to
transfer or redeem any financial assets in the Account (each an “entitlement order”) originated by Secured Party without further consent by Debtor. 

Section 3. Subordination Of Intermediary’s Security Interest. Intermediary subordinates in favor of Secured Party any
security interest, lien or right of setoff Intermediary may have, now or in the future, against the Account or financial assets in the Account, except that Intermediary will retain its prior lien on financial assets in the Account to secure payment
for financial assets purchased for the Account and normal commissions and fees for the Account. 

  
 16 








 Section 4. Debtor’s Rights In Account. Except as otherwise provided in this
Section 4, Intermediary will comply with entitlement orders originated by Debtor without further consent by Secured Party. If Secured Party notifies Intermediary that Secured Party will exercise exclusive control over the Account
(a “Notice of Exclusive Control”), Intermediary will cease (i) complying with entitlement orders or other directions concerning the Account originated by Debtor, and (ii) distributing to Debtor interest and/or
dividends on financial assets in the Account. Bank will send a copy of any Notice of Exclusive Control that it receives to Debtor within three (3) business days after receipt thereof. Until Intermediary receives a Notice of Exclusive Control,
Intermediary may distribute to Debtor all interest and regular cash dividends on financial assets in the Account. Intermediary will not comply with any entitlement order originated by Debtor that would require Intermediary to make a free delivery to
Debtor or any other person unless such entitlement order is accompanied by a certification from an officer of Debtor that such free delivery will not cause the Debtor to be in violation of Article VI of that certain Risk Sharing Agreement between
Debtor and Secured Party dated <DATE>, 2009, as from time to time amended, modified or supplemented. 
 Section 5. No
Third Party Control. Intermediary represents and warrants that no third party has a right to give an entitlement order regarding financial assets in the Account. Intermediary will not agree with any third party that Intermediary will comply with
entitlement orders originated by the third party. 
 Section 6. Statements, Confirmations And Notices Of Adverse Claims.
Intermediary will send copies of all statements and confirmations for the Account simultaneously to Debtor and Secured Party. Intermediary will provide Secured Party with such information concerning the Account as Secured Party shall from time to
time request, provided Debtor would otherwise be entitled to such information. Intermediary will use reasonable efforts to promptly notify Secured Party and Debtor if any other person claims that it has a property interest in a financial asset in
the Account and that it is a violation of that person’s rights for anyone else to hold, transfer or deal with the financial asset. 

Section 7. Intermediary’s Responsibility. 

7.1 Except for permitting a withdrawal, delivery or payment in violation of Section 4, Intermediary will not be liable to
Secured Party for complying with entitlement orders from Debtor that are received by Intermediary before Intermediary receives and has a reasonable opportunity to act on a Notice of Exclusive Control. Intermediary will not be liable to Debtor for
complying with a Notice of Exclusive Control or with entitlement orders originated by Secured Party, unless (i) Intermediary takes the action after it is served with an injunction, restraining order or other legal process enjoining it from
doing so, issued by a court of competent jurisdiction, and had a reasonable opportunity to act on the injunction, restraining order or other legal process, or (ii) Intermediary acts in collusion with Secured Party in violating Debtor’s
rights. 
 7.2 This Agreement does not create any obligation of Intermediary except for those expressly set forth in this Agreement. In
particular, Intermediary need not investigate whether (i) Secured Party is entitled under Secured Party’s agreements with Debtor to give an entitlement order or a Notice of Exclusive Control or (ii) Debtor is entitled to give an
entitlement orderpursuant to Section 4 hereof. Intermediary may rely on notices and communications it believes are given by the appropriate party. 
  

  
 17 








 Section 8. Indemnity. Secured Party and Debtor will indemnify Intermediary, its
officers, directors, employees, and agents against claims, liabilities and expenses with respect to Intermediary’s actions in accordance with this Agreement (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements), except to the extent the
claims, liabilities, or expenses are caused by Intermediary’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. Secured Party’s and Debtor’s liability under this Section is joint and several. 

Section 9. Termination. Secured Party may terminate this Agreement by notice to Intermediary and Debtor. Intermediary may
terminate this Agreement on <NUMBER> days’ notice to Secured Party and Debtor. If Secured Party notifies Intermediary that Secured Party’s security interest in the Account has terminated, this Agreement will immediately
terminate. Sections 7, “Intermediary’s Responsibility,” and 8, “Indemnity,” will survive termination of this Agreement. 

Section 10. Complete Agreement; Amendments. This Agreement is the entire agreement, and supersedes any prior agreements and
contemporaneous oral agreements, of the parties concerning its subject matter; provided, however, that this Agreement shall not alter or affect any mandatory arbitration provision (if any) currently in effect between Intermediary and Debtor pursuant
to a separate agreement. No amendment of, or waiver of a right under, this Agreement will be binding unless it is in writing and signed by the party to be charged. 

Section 11. Governing Law. This Agreement will be governed by the laws of the State of Indiana. 

Section 12. Severability. To the extent a provision of this Agreement is unenforceable, this Agreement will be construed as if the
unenforceable provision were omitted. 
 Section 13. Successors And Assigns. A successor to or assignee of Secured Party’s
rights and obligations under the security agreement between Secured Party and Debtor will succeed to Secured Party’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. 

Section 14. Notices. A notice or other communication to a party under this Agreement will be in writing (except that entitlement
orders may be given orally), will be sent to the party’s address set forth below or to such other address as the party may notify the other parties and will be effective on receipt. 

Section 15. Jury Waiver. EACH PARTY WAIVES ITS RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL WITH RESPECT TO ANY ACTION OR CLAIM ARISING OUT OF ANY
DISPUTE IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT, ANY RIGHTS, REMEDIES, OBLIGATIONS, OR DUTIES HEREUNDER, OR THE PERFORMANCE OR ENFORCEMENT HEREOF OR THEREOF.

shall provide such additional Collateral within thirty (30) days after written demand therefor by the CUSO; provided however that, if the Collateralization Percentage is increased on account of ITT ESI’s violation of any financial covenant
or percentage and ITT ESI thereafter becomes in compliance therewith, the Collateralization Percentage for each Loan Pool shall thereafter be restored to its original amount. For example, if the Collateralization Percentage for a Loan Pool would
otherwise be 30%, while ITT ESI is in violation of the financial covenants and percentages set forth in Section 7.2(b), the Collateralization Percentage shall be 43.5%. 

4. Except as amended by this Amendment, both the remainder of the Agreement and Schedule A are unchanged and remain in full force and effect.

 5. This Amendment may be executed in multiple counterparts, each of which shall for all purposes be deemed to be an original and both of
which shall together constitute but one and the same instrument.

 THIRD AMENDMENT TO 

RISK SHARING AGREEMENT 

This THIRD AMENDMENT TO RISK SHARING AGREEMENT (this “Amendment”) is made and entered into effective as of
May 18, 2012, by and between ITT EDUCATIONAL SERVICES, INC., a Delaware corporation, on behalf of itself and its Affiliates and subsidiaries (“ITT ESI”), and STUDENT CU CONNECT CUSO, LLC, a Delaware limited liability
company operating as a credit union service organization (the “CUSO”). 
 RECITALS 

The following recitals are a material part of this Amendment: 

A. ITT ESI and the CUSO are parties to that certain Risk Sharing Agreement entered into as of February 20, 2009, and subsequently amended
on January 13, 2011, and March 30, 2011 (as so amended, the “Agreement”). 
 B. Capitalized terms used in
this Amendment and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings provided in the Agreement and Schedule A thereto. 
 C. ITT ESI and
the CUSO have agreed to amend certain provisions of the Agreement in certain respects. 
 D. In connection with the foregoing, the parties
hereto desire to amend the Agreement as set forth in this Amendment. 
 AGREEMENT 

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of foregoing and the mutual promises and covenants contained herein, and other good and valuable consideration,
the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows: 
 1. The definition of “Net
Disbursement,” as set forth on Schedule A, is hereby amended for all Loan Pools established on or subsequent to January 1, 2011, but only with respect to the use of the term “Net Disbursements” in the definition of “First
Loss Risk”: 
 “Net Disbursement” means, as to any Loan, the total original sum disbursed, utilizing cash
funding from the Participants and the CUSO (but excluding the amount of disbursements made with accumulated refunds from the Commitment Account), to ITT ESI as payment of tuition and other charges, plus all origination and other loan fees, net of
any refund or return thereof paid by ITT ESI within sixty (60) days after the disbursement date thereof. The amount of the Net Disbursement on a Loan shall not be reduced for any principal payments made on such Loan, whether by the Borrower,
ITT ESI, or otherwise (excepting only refunds as aforesaid), or increased for any capitalized interest charges. 







 2. The definition of “First Loss Risk,” as set forth on Schedule A, is hereby amended
in its entirety as follows: 
 “First Loss Risk” means, with respect to any Loan Pool, the product produced by
multiplying (x) the applicable First Loss Percentage times (y) the aggregate Net Disbursements on all Loans in such Loan Pool. Without limitation of the foregoing, based on reports received from the Servicer, the First Loss Risk for each
of the Loan Pools is as follows: (i) 2009 Loan Pool: $21,632,460; (ii) 2010 Loan Pool: $13,849,291; and (iii) 2011 Loan Pool: $19,653,013. 

3. Section 3.9 of the Agreement is hereby amended to read in its entirety as follows: 

SECTION 3.9 Alteration of Borrower Obligations. From time to time, the CUSO may forbear, revise, modify, extend, amend, change or renew
(collectively, an “Alteration”) terms of any Loan (or any documentation or collateral therefor), without thereby releasing ITT ESI from its guarantee provided that such modification is within the Loan Criteria or the
Collection and Charge Off Standards. However, any Alteration that reduces the amount that a Borrower is obligated to pay under a Loan will similarly reduce ITT ESI’s guarantee obligations with respect thereto, unless the Alteration consists of
a partial payment in settlement of the full outstanding balance of a Charged Off Loan in compliance with an agreement between the CUSO and a collection agency that has been previously consented to by ITT ESI in accordance with the Collection and
Charge Off Standards. Further, any Alteration to any Loan in any manner inconsistent with the Loan Criteria or the Collection and Charge Off Standards, will disqualify such Loan as an ITT ESI Risk Loan. 

4. Section 7.2(b)(1)(b) of the Agreement is hereby amended to read in its entirety as follows: 

b. Long-term Debt to Equity Ratio. A long-term debt to equity ratio, defined as loans and other liabilities with terms extending
over one year divided by the shareholders’ equity of ITT ESI, of equal to or less than 5 to 1; provided, however, that ITT ESI shall not be required to maintain any specified long-term debt to equity ratio with respect to the
measurement points as of June 30, 2012 and September 30, 2012; 
 5. Section 7.2(b)(1)(c) of the Agreement is hereby amended
to read in its entirety as follows: 
 c. Current Ratio. A current ratio, defined as the “Total Current Assets” as reported
on ITT ESI’s consolidated balance sheet contained in its Forms 10-Q and 10-K filed with the SEC and any cash or securities pledged as Collateral under this Agreement, divided by the “Total Current Liabilities” as reported on ITT
ESI’s consolidated balance sheet contained in its Forms 10-Q and 10-K filed with the SEC, of ITT ESI, equal to or greater than: (i) 0.75 to 1 as of
June 30, 2012 and September 30, 2012; and (ii) 1 to 1 as of December 31, 2012 and every measurement period thereafter. This calculation excludes all unsecured and uncollateralized
related-party receivables and payables.

 6. Within two Business Days following the date of this Amendment, ITT ESI agrees to pay to the
CUSO a fee (the “Waiver Fee”) in respect of the amendments to Sections 7.2(b)(1)(b) and 7.2(b)(1)(c) of the Agreement contained herein, in an amount equal to $200,000.00. The Waiver Fee will be paid by wire transfer to the Operating
Account (as defined in the Credit Facility Agreement) of the CUSO. The CUSO shall utilize the Waiver Fee solely to pay valid fees and expenses of the CUSO. The Waiver Fee shall not be considered a part of Monthly Collections or otherwise be payable
to or for the benefit of the Participants. 
 7. Except as amended by this Amendment, both the remainder of the Agreement and Schedule A are
unchanged and remain in full force and effect. 
 8. This Amendment may be executed in multiple counterparts, each of which shall for all
purposes be deemed to be an original and both of which shall together constitute but one and the same instrument.
