Requirements for Interim Eligible Lender Trustee.  The Interim Eligible Lender Trustee shall at
all times be a corporation or banking association (i) qualifying as an
“eligible lender” as such term is defined in Section 435(d) of the Higher
Education Act for purposes of holding legal title to the Interim Trust Loans on
behalf and for the benefit of the Depositor, with a valid lender identification
number with respect to the Interim Trust Loans from the Department; and (ii)
being authorized to exercise corporate trust powers and hold legal title to the
Interim Trust Loans.  In case at any
time the Interim Eligible Lender Trustee shall cease to be eligible in
accordance with the provisions of this Section, the Interim Eligible Lender
Trustee shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in
Section 8.2.


 


SECTION
8.2       Resignation
or Removal of Interim Eligible Lender Trustee.  The Interim Eligible Lender Trustee may at
any time resign and be discharged from the trust hereby created by giving
written notice thereof to the Depositor. 
Upon receiving such notice of resignation, the Depositor shall promptly
appoint a successor Interim Eligible Lender Trustee meeting the eligibility
requirements of Section 8.1 by written instrument, in duplicate, one copy of
which instrument shall be delivered to the resigning Interim Eligible Lender
Trustee and one copy to the successor Interim Eligible Lender Trustee.  If no successor Interim Eligible Lender
Trustee shall have been so appointed and have accepted appointment within 30
days after the giving of such notice of resignation, the resigning Interim Eligible
Lender Trustee may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the
appointment of a successor Interim Eligible Lender Trustee; provided, however,
that such right to appoint or to petition for the appointment of any such
successor shall in no event relieve the resigning Interim Eligible Lender
Trustee from any obligations otherwise imposed on it under this Agreement, the
Purchase Agreement or the Sale Agreement until such successor has in fact
assumed such appointment.


 


If at any time the
Interim Eligible Lender Trustee shall cease to be or shall be likely to cease
to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of Section 8.1 and shall fail
to resign after written request therefor by the Depositor, then the Depositor
may remove the Interim Eligible Lender Trustee.  If the Depositor shall remove the Interim Eligible Lender Trustee
under the authority of the immediately preceding sentence, the Depositor shall
promptly appoint a successor Interim Eligible Lender Trustee by written
instrument, in duplicate, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to
the outgoing Interim Eligible Lender Trustee so removed and one copy to the
successor Interim Eligible Lender Trustee together with payment of all fees
owed to the outgoing Interim Eligible Lender Trustee.


 


Any resignation or
removal of the Interim Eligible Lender Trustee and appointment of a successor
Interim Eligible Lender Trustee pursuant to any of the provisions of this
Section shall not become effective until acceptance of appointment by the
successor Interim Eligible Lender Trustee pursuant to Section 8.3 and payment
of all fees and expenses owed to the outgoing Interim Eligible Lender Trustee.


 


6

















 


SECTION
8.3       Successor
Interim Eligible Lender Trustee.  Any successor Interim Eligible Lender Trustee appointed pursuant
to Section 8.2 shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Depositor and to
its predecessor Interim Eligible Lender Trustee an instrument accepting such
appointment under this Agreement, and thereupon the resignation or removal of
the predecessor Interim Eligible Lender Trustee shall become effective and such
successor Interim Eligible Lender Trustee, without any further act, deed or
conveyance, shall become fully vested with all the rights, powers, duties and
obligations of its predecessor under this Agreement, with like effect as if
originally named as Interim Eligible Lender Trustee.  The predecessor Interim Eligible Lender Trustee shall upon
payment of its fees and expenses deliver to the successor Interim Eligible
Lender Trustee all documents, statements, moneys and properties held by it
under this Agreement and shall assign, if permissible, to the successor Interim
Eligible Lender Trustee any lender identification number obtained from the
Department with respect to the Interim Trust Loans; and the Depositor and the
predecessor Interim Eligible Lender Trustee shall execute and deliver such
instruments and do such other things as may reasonably be required for fully
and certainly vesting and confirming in the successor Interim Eligible Lender
Trustee all such rights, powers, duties and obligations.


 


No successor
Interim Eligible Lender Trustee shall accept such appointment as provided in
this Section unless at the time of such acceptance such successor Interim
Eligible Lender Trustee shall be eligible pursuant to Section 8.1.


 


SECTION
8.4       Merger
or Consolidation of Interim Eligible Lender Trustee.  Any corporation into which the Interim
Eligible Lender Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be
consolidated, or any corporation or banking association resulting from any
merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Interim Eligible Lender
Trustee shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to all or substantially
all the corporate trust business of the Interim Eligible Lender Trustee, shall,
without the execution or filing of any instrument or any further act on the
part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary
notwithstanding, be the successor of the Interim Eligible Lender Trustee
hereunder; provided that such corporation or banking association shall
be eligible pursuant to Section 8.1.


 


ARTICLE IX


 


Miscellaneous


 


SECTION
9.1       Supplements
and Amendments. This Agreement may be amended by the Depositor

consents and of evidencing the authorization of the execution thereof shall be
subject to such reasonable requirements as the Interim Eligible Lender Trustee
may prescribe.


 


Prior to the execution
of any amendment to this Agreement, the Interim Eligible Lender Trustee shall
be entitled to receive and rely upon an Opinion of Counsel stating that the
