and such legends or endorsements placed thereon as may, consistently herewith, be determined by the officers executing the Notes, as evidenced by their execution of the Notes. Any portion of the text of any Note may be set forth on the reverse
thereof, with an appropriate reference thereto on the face of the Note. 
 The definitive Notes shall be typewritten, printed, lithographed
or engraved or produced by any combination of these methods (with or without steel engraved borders), all as determined by the Authorized Representatives executing such Notes, as evidenced by their execution of such Notes. 
 Each Note shall be dated the Date of Issuance. The terms of the Notes set forth in Exhibits B-1 through B-2 hereto are part of the terms of this
Indenture. 
 Section 2.02 Execution, Authentication and Delivery of Notes. The Notes shall be executed in the name and on behalf
of the Issuer by the manual or facsimile signature of an Authorized Representative. Any Note may be signed (manually or by facsimile) or attested on behalf of the Issuer by any person who, at the date of such act, shall hold the proper office or

 The Trustee shall upon Issuer Order authenticate and deliver the U.S. Dollar-denominated Class A-1 Notes, Class A-2 Notes, Class A-3 Notes, Class A-4 Notes, Class A-5

multiple thereof. 
 No Note shall be entitled to any benefit under this Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose, unless there
appears on such Note a certificate of authentication in accordance with Section 2.05 hereof. 
 Each Class of Notes will be represented
by a book-entry note certificate (“U.S. Note Certificate”) deposited on the Date of Issuance with The Bank of New York Trust Company, N.A., as custodian for DTC (the “DTC Custodian”), and registered in the name of
“Cede & Co.” as initial nominee for DTC. 
 Section 2.03 Registration, Transfer and Exchange of Notes; Persons
Treated As Registered Owners. The Issuer shall cause books for the registration and for the transfer of the Notes as provided in this Indenture to be kept by the Trustee which is hereby appointed the transfer agent of the Issuer for the Notes.
Notwithstanding such appointment and with the prior written consent of the Issuer, the Trustee is hereby authorized to make any arrangements with other institutions which it deems necessary or desirable in order that such institutions may perform
the duties of transfer agent for the Notes, including any Paying Agent. Upon surrender for transfer of any Note at the Principal Office of the Trustee, duly endorsed for transfer or accompanied by an assignment duly executed by the Registered Owner
or his attorney duly authorized in writing, the Issuer shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in the name of the transferee or transferees a new fully registered Note or Notes of the same interest rate and for a like Class and
aggregate principal amount of the same Note Final Maturity Date. 
 Notes may be exchanged at the Principal Office of the Trustee for a like
aggregate principal amount of fully registered Notes of the same Class, interest rate and Note Final Maturity Date in Authorized Denominations. The Issuer shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver Notes which the Registered Owner
making the exchange is entitled to receive, bearing numbers not contemporaneously outstanding. The execution by the Issuer of any fully registered Note of any Authorized Denomination shall constitute full and due authorization of such denomination
and the Trustee shall thereby be authorized to authenticate and deliver such fully registered Note. 
 As to any Note, the person in whose
name the same shall be registered shall be deemed and regarded as the absolute owner thereof for all purposes, and payment of either principal or interest on any fully registered Note shall be made only to or upon the written order of the Registered
Owner thereof or his legal representative but such registration may be changed as hereinabove provided. All such payments shall be valid and effectual to satisfy and discharge the liability upon such Note to the extent of the sum or sums paid.

  

 31 








 Each Registered Owner and each transferee of a Note shall be deemed to represent and warrant that either
(a) it is not acquiring the Note directly or indirectly for, or on behalf of, a Benefit Plan or a governmental plan, non-U.S. plan, or church plan that is subject to any Similar Law; or (b) the acquisition and holding of the Notes will not
result in a nonexempt prohibited transaction under Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code or a nonexempt violation of any Similar Law. 
 The Trustee shall require the payment by any Registered Owner requesting exchange or transfer of any tax or other governmental charge required to be paid with respect to such exchange or transfer. The applicant for
any such transfer or exchange may be required to pay all taxes and governmental charges in connection with such transfer or exchange, other than exchanges pursuant to Section 2.07 hereof. 
 Section 2.04 Lost, Stolen, Destroyed and Mutilated Notes. Upon receipt by the Trustee of evidence satisfactory to it of the ownership of and
the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of any Note and, in the case of a lost, stolen or destroyed Note, of indemnity satisfactory to it, and upon surrender and cancellation of the Note, if mutilated, (a) the Issuer shall execute, and the
Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, a replacement Note of the same interest rate, Class, Note Final Maturity Date and denomination in lieu of such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note or (b) if such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated
Note shall have matured and within 15 days be due and payable, in lieu of executing and delivering a new Note as aforesaid, the Issuer may pay such Note. Any such new Note shall bear a number not contemporaneously outstanding. The applicant for any
such new Note may be required to pay all taxes and governmental charges and all expenses and charges of the Issuer and of the Trustee in connection with the issuance of such Note. All Notes shall be held and owned upon the express condition that, to
the extent permitted by law, the foregoing conditions are exclusive with respect to the replacement and payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes, negotiable instruments or other securities. 
 Section 2.05 Trustee’s Authentication Certificate. The Trustee’s authentication certificate upon any Notes shall be substantially
in the form attached to the Notes. No Note shall be secured hereby or entitled to the benefit hereof, or shall be valid or obligatory for any purpose, unless a certificate of authentication, substantially in such form, has been duly executed by the
Trustee; and such certificate of the Trustee upon any Note shall be conclusive evidence and the only competent evidence that such Note has been authenticated and delivered hereunder. The Trustee’s certificate of authentication shall be deemed
to have been duly executed by it if manually signed by an authorized officer or signatory of the Trustee, but it shall not be necessary that the same person sign the certificate of authentication on all of the Notes issued hereunder. 
 Section 2.06 Cancellation and Destruction of Notes by the Trustee. Whenever any Outstanding Notes shall be delivered to the Trustee for the
cancellation thereof pursuant to this Indenture, upon payment of the principal amount and interest represented thereby, or for replacement pursuant to Section 2.03 hereof, such Notes shall be promptly cancelled and, within a reasonable time,
cremated or otherwise destroyed by the Trustee and counterparts of a certificate of destruction evidencing such cremation or other destruction shall be furnished by the Trustee to the Issuer.

 Section 2.07 Temporary Notes. Pending the preparation of definitive Notes, the Issuer may
execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver temporary Notes. Temporary Notes shall be issuable as fully registered Notes without coupons, of any denomination, and substantially in the form of the definitive Notes but with such omissions,
insertions and variations as may be appropriate for temporary Notes, all as may be determined by the Issuer. Every temporary Note shall be executed by the Issuer and be authenticated by the Trustee upon the same conditions and in substantially the
same manner, and with like effect, as the definitive Notes. As promptly as practicable the Issuer shall execute and shall furnish definitive Notes and thereupon temporary Notes may be surrendered in exchange therefor without charge at the principal
office of the Trustee, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange for such temporary Notes a like aggregate principal amount of definitive Notes. Until so exchanged the temporary Notes shall be entitled to the same benefits under
this Indenture as definitive Notes. 
 Section 2.08 Issuance of Notes. The Issuer shall have the authority, upon complying with
the provisions of this Article, to issue and deliver the Notes which shall be secured by the Trust Estate. In addition, the Issuer may enter into any Derivative Products it deems necessary or desirable with respect to any or all of the Notes.

 Section 2.09 Book-Entry Notes. The Notes, upon original issuance, will be issued in the form of typewritten Notes representing
the Book-Entry Notes, to be delivered to the Trustee on behalf of DTC, as the initial Clearing Agency, by the Issuer, or on behalf of the Issuer. Such Notes shall initially be registered on the Note Register in the name of the nominee of each
initial Clearing Agency, and no Noteholder shall receive a definitive, fully registered note representing such Noteholder’s interest in such Note, except as provided in Section 2.11 hereof. Unless and until Definitive Notes have been
issued to Noteholders pursuant to Section 2.11 hereof: 
 (a) the provisions of this Section shall be in full force and
effect; 
 (b) the Trustee, as registrar, and its respective directors, officers, employees and agents, may deal with the
applicable Clearing Agency for all purposes (including the payment of principal of and interest and other amounts on the Notes) as the authorized representative of the Noteholders; 
 (c) to the extent that the provisions of this Section conflict with any other provisions of this Indenture, the provisions of this Section
shall control; 
 (d) the rights of Noteholders shall be exercised only through the applicable Clearing Agency and shall be
limited to those established by law and agreements between such Noteholders and the applicable Clearing Agency and/or the applicable Clearing Agency Participants pursuant to the Note Depository Agreements; and unless and until Definitive Notes are
issued pursuant to Section 2.11 hereof, the initial Clearing Agencies will make book-entry transfers among the applicable Clearing Agency Participants and receive and transmit payments of principal of and interest and other amounts on the Notes
to such applicable Clearing Agency Participants; 
  

 33 








 (e) whenever this Indenture requires or permits actions to be taken based upon
instructions or directions of Noteholders of Notes evidencing a specified percentage of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes, the applicable Clearing Agency shall be deemed to represent such percentage only to the extent that it has received
instructions to such effect from Noteholders and/or applicable Clearing Agency Participants owning or representing, respectively, such required percentage of the beneficial interest in the Notes and has delivered such instructions to the Trustee;
and 
 (f) upon acquisition or transfer of a beneficial interest in any Book-Entry Note by, for or with the assets of, a
Benefit Plan or a governmental plan, non-U.S. plan, or church plan that is subject to any Similar Law, such Noteholder shall be deemed to have represented that such acquisition or purchase will not constitute or otherwise result in a non-exempt
prohibited transaction of Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code or a non-exempt violation of any Similar Law. Any transfer found to have been made in violation of such deemed representation shall be null and void and of no
effect. 
 Section 2.10 Notices to Clearing Agency. Whenever a notice or other communication is required under this Indenture to
be given to Noteholders, unless and until Definitive Notes shall have been issued to Noteholders pursuant to Section 2.11 hereof, the Trustee shall give all such notices and communications specified herein to the applicable Clearing Agency.

 Section 2.11 Definitive Notes. If (a) the Administrator advises the Trustee in writing that a Clearing Agency (i) is
closed for business for a continuous period of 14 days (other than by reason of holiday, statutory or otherwise), (ii) announces an intention to cease business permanently (or does so and no alternative clearing system acceptable to the Trustee
is then available), or (iii) at any time, is unwilling or unable to continue as, or ceases to be, a clearing agency registered under all applicable laws, and a successor clearing agency which is registered as a clearing agency under all
applicable laws is not appointed by the Administrator within 90 days of such event, (b) the Administrator at its option advises the Trustee in writing that it elects to terminate the book-entry system through that Clearing Agency or
(c) after the occurrence of an Event of Default, Noteholders representing beneficial interests aggregating at least a majority of the Outstanding Amount of the applicable Notes advise the applicable Clearing Agency (which shall then notify the
Trustee) in writing that the continuation of a book-entry system through such Clearing Agency is no longer in the best interests of such Noteholders, then the Trustee shall cause such Clearing Agency to notify all Noteholders cleared through such
Clearing Agency of the occurrence of any such event and of the availability of Definitive Notes to Noteholders requesting the same. Upon surrender to the Trustee of the typewritten Notes representing the Book-Entry Notes by a Clearing Agency,
accompanied by registration instructions, the Issuer shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate the Definitive Notes in accordance with the instructions of such Clearing Agency, which shall include, without limitation, the identity and payment
instructions for all Noteholders of the applicable Notes. Neither the Issuer nor the Trustee shall be liable for any delay in delivery of such instructions and may conclusively rely on, and shall be protected in relying on, such instructions. Upon
the issuance of Definitive Notes, the Trustee shall recognize the holders of the Definitive Notes as Noteholders. 
  

 34 








 Upon acquisition or transfer of a Definitive Note by, for or with the assets of, a Benefit Plan or a
governmental plan, non-U.S. plan, or church plan that is subject to any Similar Law, such Noteholder shall be deemed to have represented that such acquisition or purchase will not constitute or otherwise result in a non-exempt prohibited transaction
of Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code or a non-exempt violation of any Similar Law. Any transfer found to have been made in violation of such deemed representation shall be null and void and of no effect. 
 Section 2.12 Payment of Principal and Interest. 
 (a) The LIBOR Rate Notes shall accrue interest as provided in the form of LIBOR Rate Note set forth in Exhibit B-1 hereto. The Auction Rate Notes shall accrue interest as provided in Appendix B hereto and as provided
in the form of Auction Rate Note set forth in Exhibit B-2 hereto. Such interest shall be payable with respect to each Class of the Notes on each Distribution Date as specified in Section 5.04(c) hereof, subject to Section 4.01 hereof. Any
installment of interest or principal, if any, payable on any Note which is punctually paid or duly provided for by the Issuer on the Distribution Date shall be paid to the Person in whose name such Note is registered on the Record Date by check
mailed first-class, postage prepaid to such Person’s address as it appears on the records of the Trustee on such Record Date, except that, unless definitive Notes have been issued pursuant to Section 2.11 hereof, with respect to Notes
registered on the Record Date in the names of the nominees of the Clearing Agencies, payment shall be made by wire transfer in immediately available funds to the account designated by such nominees and except for the final installment of principal
payable with respect to such Note on a Quarterly Distribution Date or on the Note Final Maturity Date for such Note which shall be payable as provided below. The amount of interest distributable to Noteholders of LIBOR Rate Notes, for each $1,000 in
principal amount, will be calculated by applying the applicable interest rate for the Interest Accrual Period to the principal amount of $1,000, multiplying that product by the actual number of days in the Interest Accrual Period divided by 360, and
rounding the resulting percentage figure to the fifth decimal point. Interest on the Auction Rate Notes shall be computed as set forth in Appendix B hereto. The terms of and definitions related to the Auction Rate Notes are found in Article I hereof
and Appendix B hereto. 
 (b) The principal of each Note shall be payable in installments on each Quarterly Distribution Date
as provided in Section 5.04(c) hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the entire unpaid principal amount of each Class of the Notes shall be due and payable, if not previously paid, on the Note Final Maturity Date for such Class of Notes or on
the date on which an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing if the Trustee or the Registered Owners of the Notes representing not less than a majority of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes have declared the Notes to be immediately
due and payable in the manner provided in Section 6.02 hereof. The Trustee shall notify the Person in whose name a Note is registered at or prior to the close of business on the Record Date preceding the Distribution Date on which the Issuer
expects that the final installment of principal of and interest on such Note will be paid. Such notice shall be mailed or transmitted by facsimile prior to such final Distribution Date and shall specify that such final installment will be payable
only upon presentation and surrender of such 

  

 35 








 
Note and shall specify the place where such Note may be presented and surrendered for payment of such installment. 
 (c) The Issuer shall cause each Paying Agent other than the Trustee to execute and deliver to the Trustee an instrument in which such
Paying Agent shall agree with the Trustee (and if the Trustee acts as Paying Agent, it hereby so agrees), subject to the provisions of this Section, that such Paying Agent will: 
 (i) hold all sums held by it for the payment of amounts due with respect to the Notes or any Derivative Product in trust for the benefit
of the Persons entitled thereto until such sums shall be paid to such Persons or otherwise disposed of as herein provided and pay such sums to such Persons as herein provided; 
 (ii) give the Trustee notice of any default by the Issuer of which it has actual knowledge in the making of any payment required to be
made with respect to the Notes or any Derivative Product; 
 (iii) at any time during the continuance of any such default,
upon the written request of the Trustee, forthwith pay to the Trustee all sums so held in trust by such Paying Agent; 
 (iv)
immediately resign as a Paying Agent and forthwith pay to the Trustee all sums held by it in trust for the payments due under the Notes or any Derivative Product if at any time it ceases to meet the standards required to be met by a Paying Agent at
the time of its appointment; and 
 (v) comply with all requirements of the Code with respect to the withholding from any
payments made by it on any Notes of any applicable withholding taxes imposed thereon and with respect to any applicable reporting requirements in connection therewith. 
 The Issuer may at any time, for the purpose of obtaining the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture or for any other purpose, by Issuer Order direct any Paying Agent to pay to the Trustee all sums held in trust
by such Paying Agent, such sums to be held by the Trustee upon the same trusts as those upon which the sums were held by such Paying Agent; and upon such payment by any Paying Agent to the Trustee, such Paying Agent shall be released from all
further liability with respect to such money. 
  

 36 








 Section 2.13 Redemption of the Notes. 
 (a) Mandatory Redemption of the Notes From Sale of Financed Eligible Loans. The Notes shall be subject to redemption from
the proceeds of a sale of Financed Eligible Loans in accordance with Section 10.03 or 10.04 hereof on any Quarterly Distribution Date, in whole only, at a redemption price equal to the principal amount thereof being redeemed, plus accrued
interest, if any, due and payable on the Notes to such Quarterly Distribution Date. 
 (b) Redemption of the Auction
Rate Notes. The Auction Rate Notes of any class shall be subject to redemption pursuant to Section 5.04(e) hereof. The redemption price for any Auction Rate Notes shall be 100% of the outstanding principal balance of such Auction Rate
Notes plus interest accrued thereon through the Redemption Date. 
  

	(c)	Notice of Redemption. 

 (i)
In respect of the redemption of Notes (other than Auction Rate Notes) pursuant to Section 2.13(a) hereof, preferably five, but not less than two Business Days prior to the Quarterly Distribution Date on which the Notes are to be redeemed, the
Trustee shall cause notice of such redemption to be given by mailing (or so long as the Notes are in book-entry form, emailing or faxing to the Securities Depositary) a copy of the notice by first-class mail to the Administrator and Registered
Owners of the Notes at their address as the same shall last appear upon the registration books on such date; provided, however, that failure to give such notice, or any defect therein, shall not affect the validity of any proceedings for the
reduction or redemption of such Notes. 
 (ii) With respect to the redemption of Auction Rate Notes pursuant to
Section 2.13(a) or Section 2.13(b) hereof, notice of such redemption shall be given by the Trustee by first-class mail (or email or fax in the case of Book-Entry Notes) postage prepaid, mailed no later than 10 days prior to the Redemption
Date to the Registered Owners of Auction Rate Notes to be redeemed at the address of such Registered Owner appearing in the note register; but neither failure to give such notice nor any defect in any notice so given shall affect the validity of the
proceedings for redemption of any Auction Rate Note not affected by such failure or defect. So long as any such Auction Rate Notes are maintained in book-entry form, the Trustee shall treat the Clearing Agency as the sole Registered Owner of such
Auction Rate Notes. All notices of redemption shall state (i) the Redemption Date, (ii) the redemption price, (iii) the name (including class designation), Final Maturity Date and CUSIP number of each of the Auction Rate Notes to be
redeemed, (iv) the principal amount of Auction Rate Notes of each Class to be redeemed, and, if less than all Outstanding Auction Rate Notes of a Class are to be redeemed, the identification (and, in the case of partial redemption, the
respective principal amounts) of the Auction Rate Notes of each class to be redeemed, (v) that, on the Redemption Date, the redemption price on each such Auction Rate Note will become due and payable and that interest on each such Auction Rate
Note shall cease to accrue on and after such date, (vi) the place or 

  

 37 








 
places where such Auction Rate Notes are to be surrendered for payment of the redemption price thereof, and (vii) if it be the case, that such Auction
Rate Notes are to be redeemed by the application of certain specified trust moneys and for certain specified reasons. Within 60 days after any Redemption Date, a second notice of redemption shall be given by the Trustee, in the manner described
above, to the Registered Owner of an Auction Rate Note that was not presented for redemption within 30 days after the Redemption Date. Following provision of notice, the redemption price will become due and payable on the Redemption Date, and
interest shall cease to accrue on the Auction Rate Notes to be redeemed. Upon surrender of any such Auction Rate Note for redemption in accordance with such notice, such Auction Rate Note shall be paid at the redemption price. If any Auction Rate
Note called for redemption shall not be so paid upon surrender thereof for redemption, the redemption price and, to the extent lawful, interest thereon shall, until paid, bear interest from the Redemption Date at the interest rate borne by the
Auction Rate Note on the Redemption Date. Any Auction Rate Note which is to be redeemed only in part shall be surrendered to the Trustee (with, if the Trustee so requires, due endorsement by, or a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory
to the Trustee duly executed by, the Registered Owner thereof or his, her or its attorney duly authorized in writing) and an Authorized Representative shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Registered Owner of such
Auction Rate Note, without service charge to such Registered Owner (such charge to be paid by the Issuer), a new Auction Rate Note or Notes of the same Class, of any Authorized Denomination or Denominations, in aggregate outstanding principal
balance equal to the unredeemed portion of the principal of the Auction Rate Note so surrendered. Any Auction Rate Note with respect to which a partial distribution of principal is made shall remain Outstanding in the then current outstanding
principal balance. The Trustee shall retain a record of the outstanding principal balance of each Auction Rate Note any portion of the principal of which has been distributed. 
 Section 2.14 Tax-Treatment of the Notes. The Issuer has entered into this Indenture, and the Notes shall be issued, with the intention that,
solely for federal, state and local income and franchise tax purposes, the Notes shall qualify as indebtedness secured by the pledge of the Trust Estate. The Issuer, by entering into this Indenture, and each Noteholder, by its acceptance of a Note,
agree to treat the Notes for federal, state and local income and franchise tax purposes as indebtedness. 
 ARTICLE III 
 PARITY AND PRIORITY OF LIEN; OTHER OBLIGATIONS; 
 AND DERIVATIVE PRODUCTS 
 Section 3.01 Parity and Priority of Lien. The provisions, covenants and agreements
herein set forth to be performed by or on behalf of the Issuer shall be for the equal benefit, protection and security of the Registered Owners of any and all of the Obligations, each of which shall be of equal rank to each other Obligation, without
preference, priority or distinction over 

  

 38 








 
any other Obligation, except as expressly provided in this Indenture with respect to certain payment and other priorities. 
 Section 3.02 Other Obligations. The Available Funds and other moneys, Financed Eligible Loans, securities, evidences of indebtedness,
interests, rights and properties pledged under this Indenture are and will be owned by the Issuer free and clear of any pledge, lien, charge or encumbrance thereon or with respect thereto, prior to, of equal rank with or subordinate to the
respective pledges created by this Indenture, except as otherwise expressly provided herein, and all action on the part of the Issuer to that end has been duly and validly taken. If any Financed Eligible Loan is found to have been subject to a lien
at the time such Financed Eligible Loan was acquired, the Issuer shall cause such lien to be released, shall purchase such Financed Eligible Loan from the Trust Estate for a purchase price equal to its principal amount plus interest accrued thereon
or shall replace such Financed Eligible Loan with another Eligible Loan with substantially identical characteristics which replacement Eligible Loan shall be free and clear of liens at the time of such replacement. Except as otherwise provided
herein, the Issuer shall not create or voluntarily permit to be created any debt, lien or charge on the Financed Eligible Loans which would be on a parity with, subordinate to, or prior to the lien of this Indenture; shall not do or omit to do or
suffer to be done or omitted to be done any matter or things whatsoever whereby the lien of this Indenture or the priority of such lien for the Obligations hereby secured might or could be lost or impaired; and will pay or cause to be paid or will
make adequate provisions for the satisfaction and discharge of all lawful claims and demands which if unpaid might by law be given precedence to or any equality with this Indenture as a lien or charge upon the Financed Eligible Loans; provided,
however, that nothing in this Section shall require the Issuer to pay, discharge or make provision for any such lien, charge, claim or demand so long as the validity thereof shall be by it in good faith contested, unless thereby, in the opinion of
the Trustee, the same will endanger the security for the Obligations; and provided further that any subordinate lien hereon (i.e., subordinate to the lien securing the Obligations) shall be entitled to no payment from the Trust Estate, nor may any
remedy be exercised with respect to such subordinate lien against the Trust Estate until all Obligations have been paid or deemed paid hereunder. 
 Section 3.03 Derivative Products; Counterparty Payments; Issuer Derivative Payments. The Issuer hereby authorizes and directs the Trustee to acknowledge and agree to any Derivative Product hereafter entered into by the Issuer
and a Counterparty under which (a) the Issuer may be required to make, from time to time, payments to a Counterparty and (b) the Trustee may receive, from time to time, Counterparty Payments for the account of the Issuer. No Derivative

interest (as defined in the applicable Uniform Commercial Code in effect in the State of New York) in the Financed Eligible Loans in favor of the Trustee, which security interest is prior to all other liens, charges, security interests, mortgages or
other encumbrances, and is enforceable as such as against creditors of and purchasers from Issuer. 
 (b) Pursuant to the
Higher Education Act, a security interest in student loans is perfected in the same manner as “accounts” within the meaning of the applicable UCC as in effect in the States of Delaware and New York for the purposes of perfecting a security
interest in the Financed Eligible Loans. 
 (c) The Issuer (or the Eligible Lender Trustee on behalf of the Issuer) owns and
has good and marketable title to the Financed Eligible Loans free and clear of any lien, charge, security interest, mortgage or other encumbrance, claim or encumbrance of any Person, other that those granted pursuant to this Indenture. 

(d) For sale of loan participations, swaps and other “payment intangibles” (within the meaning of the applicable UCC), the
Issuer has received all consents and approvals required by the terms of the Financed Eligible Loans to the sale of the Financed Eligible Loans hereunder to the Trustee. 
 (e) All filings (including, without limitation, UCC filings) necessary in any jurisdiction to give the Trustee a first priority perfected
ownership and security interest in the Trust Estate, including the Financed Eligible Loans, have been made or will be made on or about the Date of Issuance. The Issuer has not caused, suffered or permitted any lien, pledges, offsets, defenses,
claims, counterclaims, charges or security interest with respect to the Financed Eligible Loans (other than the security interest created in favor of the Trustee) to be created. 
 (f) Other than the security interest granted to the Trustee pursuant to this Indenture, the Issuer has not pledged, assigned, sold,
granted a security interest in, or otherwise conveyed any of the Financed Eligible Loans. The Issuer has not authorized the filing of and is not aware of any financing statements against the Issuer that include a description of collateral covering
the Financed Eligible Loans other than any financing statement relating to the security interest granted to the Trustee hereunder or that has been terminated. The Issuer is not aware of any judgment or tax lien filings against the Issuer.

Agent’s Certificate. The Verification Agent Agreement provides that, prior to each Monthly Allocation Date and each Distribution Date, the Verification Agent shall deliver to the Trustee a certificate certifying as to whether the Issuer
Orders to transfer moneys on such date pursuant to Section 5.04 are accurate. In the event that such certificate delivered by the Verification Agent indicates that any such Issuer Order is not accurate, then the Trustee shall transfer moneys on

 54 








 
Fund shall be used, upon receipt by the Trustee of an Eligible Loan Acquisition Certificate, to acquire any Add-On Consolidation Loans at a price not in
excess of 100% of the outstanding principal balance of such Eligible Loans, plus accrued interest. Any such Eligible Loan Acquisition Certificate shall state that such proposed use of moneys in the Prefunding Account or the Add-On Consolidation Loan
Account of the Acquisition Fund, as applicable, is in compliance with the provisions of this Indenture. 
 To the extent that (a) on any
Monthly Allocation Date, the amount of Available Funds on deposit in the Collection Fund is insufficient to make one or more of the payments described in Sections 5.04(b)(i) through (iii), (b) on any Quarterly Distribution Date, the amount of
Available Funds on deposit in the Collection Fund and, to the extent applicable, amounts distributed from the Future Distribution Fund, are insufficient to make one or more of the payments and deposits described in Sections 5.04(c)(i) through
(v) (other than Termination Payments) or (c) on any Auction Rate Distribution Date, the amount of Available Funds on deposit in the Future Distribution Fund is insufficient to make one or more of the payments described in Sections
5.04(d)(i) and (ii) (any such shortfall, a “Distribution Shortfall”), the Administrator shall instruct the Trustee in writing to withdraw from the Acquisition Fund (first, from the Prefunding Account and second, from the Add-On
Consolidation Loan Account) and deposit in the Collection Fund on such date an amount of money (but not Eligible Loans) equal to such Distribution Shortfall less any amounts transferred from the Capitalized Interest Fund pursuant to

foregoing clauses (i) and (ii), it is understood and agreed that, if the Issuer or the Administrator on behalf of the Issuer determines in its sole discretion on any date prior to the applicable date specified in such clauses that no Add-On
Consolidation Loans or Additional Trust Loans, as applicable, will be available for acquisition pursuant to this Section on or after such date, the Issuer or the Administrator on behalf of the Issuer may direct the Trustee to transfer to the
Collection Fund the remaining moneys or funds on deposit in the applicable Account on the Business Day next succeeding such date. Any moneys transferred to the Collection Fund in accordance with this paragraph shall be deemed to be Available Funds
on deposit on the Collection Fund. 
 While the Issuer will be the beneficial owner of the Financed Eligible Loans, it is understood and
agreed that the Eligible Lender Trustee will be the legal owner thereof and the Trustee will have a security interest in the Financed Eligible Loans for and on behalf of the Registered Owners. In the case of a single Financed Eligible Loan evidenced
by a separate note, each such note will be held in the name of the Trustee for the account of the Issuer, for the benefit of the Registered Owners. 
 Except (i) as provided in Sections 5.12, 10.03 and 10.04 hereof, (ii) for consolidation or serialization purposes, (iii) for transfers to a Guaranty Agency, (iv) for transfers to any Servicer or a Subservicer pursuant to
its repurchase obligation under the applicable Servicing Agreement

or Subservicing Agreement, (v) for transfers to a Depositor pursuant to its repurchase obligation under its Student Loan Purchase Agreement,
(vi) for transfers to Goal Financial pursuant to its purchase obligation under the Student Loan Repurchase Agreement or (vii) when the Issuer does not have sufficient moneys in the Acquisition Fund to fund any applicable Add-On
Consolidation Loan or Additional Trust Loan (in which case the Issuer may sell the Financed Eligible Loan to which such Add-On Consolidation Loan or Additional Trust Loan relates), Financed Eligible Loans shall not be sold, transferred or otherwise
disposed of by the Issuer through the Trustee free from the lien of this Indenture while any of the Class A Notes are Outstanding. The Issuer hereby certifies, upon which the Trustee may conclusively rely, that any Financed Eligible Loan sold
pursuant to this Indenture shall not be sold for a price less than the Purchase Amount of such Financed Eligible Loan. The Issuer shall provide notice to Moody’s if the principal amount of Financed Eligible Loans sold pursuant to this Indenture
exceeds 10% of the Initial Pool Balance. 
 Section 5.03 Capitalized Interest Fund. There shall be deposited into the Capitalized
Interest Fund moneys from proceeds of the Notes in an amount equal to $45,000,000. 
 In the event of a Distribution Shortfall on any date,
the Administrator shall instruct the Trustee in writing to withdraw from the Capitalized Interest Fund and deposit in the Collection Fund on such date an amount of money equal to such Distribution Shortfall less any amounts transferred on such date
to the Collection Fund in accordance with the third paragraph of this Section 5.03 for application to cover any Distribution Shortfall (in the case of any deficiency in the transfers described in Sections 5.04(b)(i) through (iii), in the order
of priority specified in Section 5.04(b), in the case of any deficiency in the transfers described in Sections 5.04(c)(i) through (v), in the order of priority specified in Section 5.04(c) and, in the case of any deficiency in the
transfers described in Sections 5.04(d)(i) and (ii), in the order of priority specified in Section 5.04(d)).

Capitalized Interest Fund to the Collection Fund. On the Quarterly Distribution Date in June of 2009, the Trustee shall transfer any remaining amounts on deposit in the Capitalized Interest Fund to the Collection Fund; provided, however, that if
less than 60.0% of the Financed Eligible Loans are in repayment status on such Quarterly Distribution Date, the remaining amounts on deposit shall be retained in the Capitalized Interest Fund (unless otherwise required to be transferred to the
Collection Fund to cover a Distribution Shortfall) until the Quarterly Distribution Date in June of 2010; on which date any remaining amounts in the Capitalized Interest Fund shall be transferred to the Collection Fund. 
 Section 5.04 Collection Fund. 
 (a) Deposits to Collection Fund. There shall be deposited to the Collection Fund (i) all Available Funds, and all other moneys and investments derived from assets on deposit in and transfers from

preceding each Monthly Allocation Date (based on the information contained in a certificate of the Administrator (in the form set forth as Exhibit C hereto) and the related Servicer’s Report, if applicable), prior to an Event of Default that
results in an acceleration of the Outstanding Obligations pursuant to Section 6.08 hereof, to make the following deposits and distributions from Available Funds on deposit in the Collection Fund (including any amounts transferred from the
Capitalized Interest Fund pursuant to Section 5.03 hereof, the Acquisition Fund pursuant to Section 5.02 hereof and the Reserve Fund pursuant to Section 5.05(b) and (c) hereof) in the following order of priority on the following

 (c) Payments on Quarterly Distribution Dates. Prior to an Event of Default that results in an acceleration of the
Outstanding Obligations pursuant to Section 6.08 hereof, the Administrator shall instruct the Trustee in writing no later than the second Business Day preceding each Quarterly Distribution Date (based on the information contained in a
certificate of the Administrator (in the form set forth as Exhibit D hereto) and the related Servicer’s Report, if applicable), to make the payments and deposits required pursuant to this subsection (c) on such Quarterly Distribution Date
after payments or allocations are made pursuant to Section 5.04(b) hereof and only to the extent such payments and deposits will not be made from funds on deposit in the Future Distribution Fund on such Quarterly Distribution Date), in the
order of priority described in this subsection (c), from Available Funds on deposit in the Collection Fund received during the most recently ended Collection Period to the extent remaining after making the payments and deposits required pursuant to
Section 5.04(b) hereof (plus any amounts transferred from the Capitalized Interest Fund pursuant to Section 5.03 hereof, the Acquisition Fund pursuant to Section 5.02 hereof and the Reserve Fund pursuant to Sections 5.05(b) and
(c) hereof), and the Trustee shall comply with such instructions; provided, however, that if funds distributed from the Future Distribution Fund on such Quarterly Distribution Date and Available Funds received during the most recently ended
Collection Period are not sufficient to make the payments or deposits required pursuant to clauses (i) through (vi) of this subsection (c), then, after any required transfers from the Acquisition Fund, the Capitalized Interest Fund and the
Reserve Fund, any other Available Funds on deposit in the Collection Fund, which the Administrator would have deemed Available Funds for the Collection Period in which such Quarterly Distribution Date occurs, may be used to make the payments or
deposits required pursuant to clauses (i) through (vi) of this subsection (c): 
 (i) to pay to the Trustee, the
Delaware Trustee, and to the extent the Quarterly Distribution Date is also an Auction Rate Distribution Date, the Broker-Dealer and the Auction Agent, pro rata, based on amounts owed to each such party, without preference or priority of any kind,
the Trustee Fee, the Delaware Trustee Fee, the Broker-Dealer fees and the Auction Agent fees, respectively, due on such Quarterly Distribution Date, in each case, together with such fees remaining unpaid from prior Quarterly Distribution Dates;

any Issuer Derivative Payments owed to such Counterparty on such Quarterly Distribution Date (excluding Termination Payments other than Priority Termination Payments), pro rata, based on amounts owed to each such party, without preference or

 59 








 
manner set forth in subclauses (A) through (E) of clause (vi) above, until the Class A Notes have been paid in full, and second to the

 Amounts properly distributed to the Certificateholders pursuant to

 In the event Available Funds received during the immediately preceding Collection Period and on deposit in the Collection
Fund (and any other amounts in the Collection Fund available therefor in accordance with this Indenture, including without limitation any applicable amounts from the Acquisition Fund, the Capitalized Interest Fund and the Reserve Fund ) are not
sufficient to make the payments and deposits described in clauses (i) through (v) of this subsection (c) for a Quarterly Distribution Date, the Administrator shall, or shall direct the Trustee to, notify the Rating Agencies by sending

furnishing each Rating Agency with revised cash flows, shall have received a Rating Confirmation. 
  

 60 








 In the event that a Termination Payment is owed by the Issuer to any Counterparty and a
Replacement Transaction is procured by the Issuer under which the replacement Counterparty makes a payment to the Issuer, the Issuer will pay that amount directly to the original Counterparty to the extent that a Termination Payment is owed by the
Issuer to that Swap Counterparty. If after making that payment, the original Counterparty is still owed a payment, then the remaining amount will be paid as set forth in clause (xii) of this subsection (c). 
 (d) Payments on Auction Rate Distribution Dates. On each Auction Rate Distribution Date for a Class of the Auction Rate
Notes, (a) amounts deposited in the Future Distribution Fund to pay Auction Agent Fees due and owing on such Auction Rate Distribution Date shall be paid to the Auction Agent and amounts deposited in the Future Distribution Date to pay
Broker-Dealer Fees due and owing on such Auction Rate Distribution Date shall be paid to the Broker-Dealers, (b) amounts deposited in the Future Distribution Fund to pay the Class B Noteholders’ Interest Distribution Amount, principal on
the Class B-1 Notes (if notice of redemption for such Class had been properly given for such Auction Rate Distribution Date) and the Class B Carry-Over Amount and allocable to the Class B-1 Notes shall be paid to the Noteholders of the Class B-1
Notes. In addition, on each Auction Rate Distribution Date, amounts transferred from the Capitalized Interest Fund to the Collection Fund pursuant to Section 5.03 hereof, the Acquisition Fund pursuant to Section 5.02 hereof and the Reserve
Fund pursuant to Section 5.05(b) hereof shall be applied by the Trustee to make the payments described in the following clauses (i) and (ii) (in that order of priority) to the extent any such amounts remain unpaid after giving effect
to the application of funds on deposit in the Future Distribution Fund that have been allocated to pay such amounts on such Auction Rate Distribution Date: 
 (i) to pay to the Auction Agent and the Broker-Dealers, pro rata, to the Auction Agent and the Broker-Dealers, pro rata, based on amounts owed to each such party, without preference or priority of any kind, the
Auction Agent Fees and the Broker-Dealer Fees, respectively, due on such Auction Rate Distribution Date, in each case, together with such fees remaining unpaid from prior Auction Rate Distribution Dates; and 
 (ii) if the date is a Distribution Date for the Class B-1 Notes, to pay to the Class B-1 Noteholders, the Class B Noteholders’
Interest Distribution Amount payable to the Class B-1 Noteholders on such Distribution Date. 
 If any amount described in the preceding
clauses (i) and (ii) would remain unpaid after giving effect to the application of funds described in the preceding sentence, then the Administrator shall instruct the Trustee in writing no later than the second Business Day preceding such
Auction Rate Distribution Date (based on information contained in a certificate of the Administrator (in the form set forth in Exhibit D hereto)), to apply, on such Auction Rate Distribution Date, Available Funds then on deposit in the Collection
Fund that are expected to be allocated to the Future Distribution Fund on the next following Monthly Allocation Date to pay such amounts. For purposes of determining the amount of funds expected to be allocated to the Future Distribution Fund for
payment 

  

 61 








 
of any amount on the next following Monthly Allocation Date as required by the preceding sentence, the Administrator shall assume that the amount of
Available Funds on the next Monthly Allocation Date will equal the amount of Available Funds on such date of determination and shall determine the amount of funds that would be available to make such payment if such Available Funds were applied
pursuant to Section 5.04(b) on such date of determination using a good faith estimate of any amounts required to be paid or deposited pursuant to Section 5.04(b) that are not then determinable). 
 (e) Determination, Allocation and Payment of Principal Distribution Amount. The Class A Principal Distribution
Amount and the Class B Principal Distribution Amount will be allocated for the Notes only on Quarterly Distribution Dates. If a Class of LIBOR Rate Notes is allocated some or all of the Class A Principal Distribution Amount on a Quarterly
Distribution Date, that Class will be paid such amount on such Quarterly Distribution Date. If principal payments are allocated to any Class of Auction Rate Notes on a Quarterly Distribution Date, such allocations will be used to redeem such Class
on the first Auction Rate Distribution Date for such Class on or immediately following the Quarterly Distribution Date for which notice of redemption can be given pursuant to Section 2.13(c) hereof. 
 (f) Allocations of Funds Among Registered Owners of Auction Rate Notes. If less than all of the Auction Rate Notes of
a given Class are to be paid or allocated principal in an amount sufficient to cover the full amount payable to such Class, the particular Auction Rate Notes of such Class to be paid shall be selected by the Trustee by random lots of $50,000. If
there are any amounts available to pay principal to a Class of the Auction Rate Notes that are not in $50,000 increments, the Trustee shall retain such amounts in the Future Distribution Fund to pay principal to the applicable Class of Auction Rate
Notes. 
 Section 5.05 Reserve Fund. 
 (a) On the Date of Issuance, the Trustee shall deposit $2,761,717 from the proceeds of the Notes into the Reserve Fund. Thereafter, the
Trustee shall transfer to the Reserve Fund from the Collection Fund all amounts designated for transfer thereto pursuant to Section 5.04(c)(viii) hereof. 
 (b) In the event of a Distribution Shortfall on any date, the Administrator shall instruct the Trustee in writing to withdraw from the
Reserve Fund and deposit in the Collection Fund on such date an amount of money equal to such Distribution Shortfall less any amounts transferred on such date to the Collection Fund in accordance with Sections 5.02 and 5.03 hereof, for application
to cover such Distribution Shortfall. Additionally, if on the Note Final Maturity Date for a Class of Notes, and after giving effect to the distribution of the Available Funds on such Note Final Maturity Date, the principal amount of such Class of
Notes will not be reduced to zero, the Administrator shall instruct the Trustee in writing to withdraw from the Reserve Fund on such Note Final Maturity Date an amount equal to the amount needed to reduce the principal amount of such Class of Notes
to zero and to deposit such amount in the Collection Fund for application to payment of the Outstanding Amount of such Class of Notes. 
  

 62 








 (c) After giving effect to subsection (b) of this Section, if the amount on deposit
in the Reserve Fund on any Quarterly Distribution Date is greater than the Specified Reserve Fund Balance for such Quarterly Distribution Date, the Administrator shall instruct the Trustee in writing to withdraw from the Reserve Fund on such
Quarterly Distribution Date an amount equal to such excess and to deposit such amount in the Collection Fund. 
 (d) On the
final Distribution Date upon termination of the trust and following the payment in full of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes and of all other amounts owing or to be distributed hereunder to Noteholders, the Trustee, each Servicer, the
Administrator, the Delaware Trustee or the Counterparties (other than Termination Payments), to the extent that Available Funds on deposit in the Collection Fund are insufficient to pay any unpaid Termination Payments, amounts remaining in the
Reserve Fund shall be used to make such Payments. Any amount remaining on deposit in the Reserve Fund after such payments have been made shall be released to the Issuer. The Issuer shall in no event be required to refund any amounts properly
distributed pursuant to this subsection (d). 
 (e) Anything in this Section to the contrary notwithstanding, if the market
value of securities and cash in the Reserve Fund is on any Quarterly Distribution Date sufficient to pay the remaining principal amount of and interest accrued on the Notes, and to pay any unpaid Issuer Derivative Payments, such amount will be so
applied on such Quarterly Distribution Date and the Administrator shall instruct the Trustee in writing to make such payments. 
 Section 5.06 [Reserved]. 
 Section 5.07 [Reserved]. 
 Section 5.08 [Reserved]. 
 Section 5.09 [Reserved]. 
 Section 5.10 [Reserved]. 
 Section 5.11 Investment of Funds Held by Trustee. The Trustee shall invest money held for the credit of any Fund or Account or Subaccount held
by the Trustee hereunder as directed in writing (or orally, confirmed in writing) by an Authorized Representative of the Issuer, to the fullest extent practicable and reasonable, in Investment Securities which shall mature or be redeemed at the
option of the holder prior to the respective dates when the money held for the credit of such Fund or Account will be required for the purposes intended. In the absence of any such direction and to the extent practicable, the Trustee shall invest
amounts held hereunder in those Investment Securities described in clause (k) of the definition of the Investment Securities. All such investments shall be held by (or by any custodian on behalf of) the Trustee for the benefit of the Issuer;
provided that on the Business Day preceding each Quarterly Distribution Date all interest and other investment income collected (net of losses and investment expenses) on funds on deposit therein (other than in any Currency Account) shall be
deposited into the Collection Fund and shall be deemed to constitute a portion of the Available 

  

 63 








 
Funds. The Trustee and the Issuer hereby agree that unless an Event of Default shall have occurred hereunder, the Issuer acting by and through an Authorized
Representative shall be entitled to, and shall, provide written direction or oral direction confirmed in writing to the Trustee with respect to any discretionary acts required or permitted of the Trustee under any Investment Securities and the
Trustee shall not take such discretionary acts without such written direction. 
 The Investment Securities purchased shall be held by the
Trustee and shall be deemed at all times to be part of such Fund or Account or Subaccounts or combination thereof, and the Trustee shall inform the Issuer of the details of all such investments. Upon direction in writing (or orally, confirmed in
writing) from an Authorized Representative of the Issuer, the Trustee shall use its best efforts to sell at the best price obtainable, or present for redemption, any Investment Securities purchased by it as an investment whenever it shall be
necessary to provide money to meet any payment from the applicable Fund. The Trustee shall advise the Administrator in writing, on or before the fifteenth day of each calendar month (or such later date as reasonably consented to by the
Administrator), of all investments held for the credit of each Fund in its custody under the provisions of this Indenture as of the end of the preceding month and the value thereof, and shall list any investments which were sold or liquidated for
less than the par value thereof, plus accrued but unpaid interest at the time thereof. 
 Money in any Fund constituting a part of the Trust
Estate may be pooled for the purpose of making investments and may be used to pay accrued interest on Investment Securities purchased. The Trustee and its affiliates may act as principal or agent in the acquisition or disposition of any Investment
Securities. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Trustee shall not be responsible or liable for any losses on investments made by it
hereunder or for keeping all Funds held by it fully invested at all times, its only responsibility being to comply with the investment instructions of the Issuer or its designee in a non-negligent manner. 
 The Issuer acknowledges that to the extent the regulations of the Comptroller of the Currency or other applicable regulatory agency grant the Issuer the
right to receive brokerage confirmations of security transactions, the Issuer waives receipt of such confirmations. 
 Section 5.12
Release. 
 (a) The Trustee shall, upon Issuer Order and subject to the provisions of this Indenture, take all actions
reasonably necessary to effect the release of any Financed Eligible Loans from the lien of this Indenture to the extent the terms hereof permit the sale, disposition or transfer of such Financed Eligible Loans. 
 (b) Subject to the payment of its fees and expenses pursuant to Sections 7.05 and 7.07 hereof, the Trustee may, and, when required by the
provisions of this Indenture, shall, execute instruments to release property from the lien of this Indenture, or convey the Trustee’s interest in the same, in a manner and under circumstances that are not inconsistent with the provisions of
this Indenture. No party relying upon an instrument executed by the Trustee as provided in this Article shall be bound to ascertain the 

  

 64 








 
Trustee’s authority, inquire into the satisfaction of any conditions precedent or see to the application of any moneys. 
 (c) The Trustee shall, at such time as there are no Notes Outstanding and all sums due the Trustee pursuant to Sections 7.05 and 7.07
hereof and all amounts payable to each Servicer, each Subservicer, the Administrator, the Delaware Trustee and the Counterparties have been paid, release any remaining portion of the Trust Estate that secured the Notes from the lien of this
Indenture and release to the Issuer or any other Person entitled thereto any funds then on deposit in the Funds and Accounts. 
 (d) Subject to the provisions of this Indenture, the Trustee shall release property from the lien of this Indenture only upon receipt of an Issuer Order, an Opinion of Counsel and Independent Certificates in accordance with Sections 314(c)
and 314(d)(1) of the Trust Indenture Act or an Opinion of Counsel in lieu of such Independent Certificates to the effect that the Trust Indenture Act does not require any such Independent Certificates. 
 (e) Each Registered Owner, by the acceptance of a Note, acknowledges that from time to time the Trustee shall release the lien of this
Indenture on any Financed Eligible Loan to be sold or transferred pursuant to Section 5.02 hereof, and each Registered Owner, by the acceptance of a Note, consents to any such release. 
 Section 5.13 Opinions as to Trust Estate. On or before March 31 in each calendar year, beginning in 2008, the Issuer will furnish to the
Trustee an Opinion of Counsel at the expense of the Issuer either stating that, in the opinion of such counsel, such action has been taken with respect to the recording, filing, re-recording and refiling of this Indenture, any indentures
supplemental hereto and any other requisite documents and with respect to the filing of any financing statements and continuation statements as is necessary to maintain the lien and security interest created by this Indenture and reciting the
details of such action or stating that in the opinion of such counsel no such action is necessary to maintain such lien and security interest. Such Opinion of Counsel shall also describe the recording, filing, re-recording and refiling of this
Indenture, any indentures supplemental hereto and any other requisite documents and the filing of any financing statements and continuation statements that will, in the opinion of such counsel, be required to maintain the lien and security interest
of this Indenture until January 1 in the following calendar year. 
 Section 5.14 Department Rebate Fund. On each Monthly
Allocation Date, the Trustee shall deposit into the Department Rebate Fund from the Collection Fund pursuant to Section 5.04(b) hereof the amount necessary to bring the balance of the Department Rebate Fund to the Department Rebate Interest
Amount for such date. On each Department Rebate Payment Date, upon written instructions from the Administrator to the Trustee, the Trustee shall (i) pay to the Department an amount equal to the Department Rebate Interest Amount due on such
Department Rebate Payment Date, first, from amounts on deposit in the Department Rebate Fund and, second, from the Collection Fund pursuant to Section 5.04(b) hereof or (ii) if the Department has deducted the Department Rebate Interest
Amount from Interest Subsidy Payments or Special Allowance Payments due to the Issuer, transfer the amounts on deposit in the Department Rebate Fund to the Collection Fund.

results in an acceleration of the Outstanding Obligations pursuant to Section 6.08 hereof) shall instruct the Trustee in writing no later than the second Business Day preceding any Distribution Date on which any amount described in Sections
5.04(b)(iv) through (vii) and 5.04(c)(vi), (vii) and (x) shall become due and payable (based on information contained in a certificate of the Administrator (in the form set forth in Exhibit D hereto)), to pay any such amount then due
on the related Distribution Date from funds on deposit in the Future Distribution Fund (if any) that have been previously allocated for the payment of such amount and the Trustee shall comply with such instructions.

 The Trustee may fix a record date and payment date for any payment to Registered Owners pursuant to this Section. At least 15 days before such record
date, the Trustee shall mail to each Registered Owner and the Issuer a notice that states the record date, the payment date and the amount to be paid. 
 Section 6.03 Remedies on Default; Advice of Counsel. Upon the happening of any Event of Default, the Trustee may proceed to protect and enforce the rights of the Trustee and the Registered Owners in such
manner as counsel for the Trustee may advise, whether for the specific performance of any covenant, condition, agreement or undertaking herein contained, or in aid of the execution of any power herein granted, or for the enforcement of such other
appropriate legal or equitable remedies as, in the opinion of such counsel, may be more effectual to protect and enforce the rights aforesaid. 
 Section 6.04 Remedies on Default; Sale of Trust Estate. Upon the happening of any Event of Default and if the principal of all of the Outstanding Obligations shall have been declared due and payable, then and in every such case,
and irrespective of whether other remedies authorized shall have been pursued in whole or in part, the Trustee may sell, with or without entry, to the highest bidder the Trust Estate, and all right, title, interest, claim and demand thereto and the
right of redemption thereof, at any such place or places, and at such time or times and upon such notice and terms as may be required by law. Upon such sale the Trustee may make and deliver to the purchaser or purchasers a good and sufficient
assignment or conveyance for the same, which sale shall be a perpetual bar both at law and in equity against the Issuer and all Persons claiming such properties. No purchaser at any sale shall be bound to see to the application of the purchase money
or to inquire as to the authorization, necessity, expediency or regularity of any such sale. The Trustee is hereby irrevocably appointed the true and lawful attorney-in-fact of the Issuer, in its name and stead, to make and execute all bills of
sale, instruments of assignment and transfer and such other documents of transfer as may be necessary or advisable in connection with a sale of all or part of the Trust Estate, but the Issuer, if so requested by the Trustee, shall ratify and confirm
any sale or sales by executing and delivering to the Trustee or to such purchaser or purchasers all such instruments as may be necessary, or in the 

  

 68 








 
judgment of the Trustee, proper for the purpose which may be designated in such request. In addition, the Trustee may proceed to protect and enforce the
rights of the Trustee and the Registered Owners of the Obligations in such manner as counsel for the Trustee may advise, whether for the specific performance of any covenant, condition, agreement or undertaking herein contained, or in aid of the
execution of any power herein granted, or for the enforcement of such other appropriate legal or equitable remedies as, in the opinion of such counsel, may be more effectual to protect and enforce the rights aforesaid. The Trustee shall take any
such action or actions if requested to do so in writing by the Registered Owners of at least a majority of the principal amount of the Highest Priority Obligations at the time Outstanding. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Trustee is prohibited from selling the Financed Eligible Loans following an Event of Default, other than a default in
the payment of any principal or interest on any Note, unless: 
 (a) The Registered Owners of all of the Highest Priority
Obligations at the time Outstanding consent to such a sale; 
 (b) The proceeds of such a sale will be sufficient to discharge
all the Outstanding Obligations pursuant to Article X hereof at the date of such a sale; or 
 (c) The Issuer, or the
Administrator on behalf of the Issuer, determines that the collections on the Financed Eligible Loans would not be sufficient on an ongoing basis to make all payments on such Obligations as such payments would have become due if such Obligations had
not been declared due and payable, and the Trustee obtains the consent of the Registered Owners of at least 66-2/3% of the aggregate principal amount of the Highest Priority Obligations at the time Outstanding. 
 Such a sale shall also require the consent of all the Registered Owners of each Class of Notes that are not the Highest Priority Obligations unless the proceeds of such
a sale would be sufficient to discharge such Class of Notes pursuant to Article X hereof at the date of such a sale. 
 Section 6.05
Appointment of Receiver. In case an Event of Default occurs, and if all of the Outstanding Obligations shall have been declared due and payable and in case any judicial proceedings are commenced to enforce any right of the Trustee or of the
Registered Owners under this Indenture or otherwise, then as a matter of right, the Trustee shall be entitled to the appointment of a receiver of the Trust Estate and of the earnings, income or revenue, rents, issues and profits thereof with such
powers as the court making such appointments may confer. 
 Section 6.06 Restoration of Position. In case the Trustee shall have
proceeded to enforce any rights under this Indenture by sale or otherwise, and such proceedings shall have been discontinued, or shall have been determined adversely to the Trustee, then and in every such case to the extent not inconsistent with
such adverse decree, the Issuer, the Trustee and the Registered Owners shall be restored to their former respective positions and the rights hereunder in respect to the Trust Estate, and all rights, remedies and powers of the Trustee and of the
Registered Owners shall continue as though no such proceeding had been taken. 
  

 69 








 Section 6.07 Application of Sale Proceeds. The proceeds of any sale of the Trust Estate,
together with any funds at the time held by the Trustee and not otherwise appropriated, shall be applied by the Trustee as set forth in Section 6.02 hereof. 
 Section 6.08 Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission and Annulment. If an Event of Default should occur and be continuing, the Trustee or the Registered Owners of Obligations representing not less than a
majority of the Outstanding Amount of the Highest Priority Obligations may declare all the Outstanding Obligations to be immediately due and payable, by a notice in writing to the Issuer (and to the Trustee if given by the Registered Owners), and
upon any such declaration the unpaid principal amount of such Outstanding Obligations, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon through the date of acceleration, shall become immediately due and payable. 
 At any time after such declaration of acceleration of maturity has been made and before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been
obtained by the Trustee as hereinafter in this Article provided, the Registered Owners of Obligations representing a majority of the collective aggregate principal amount of the Highest Priority Obligations then Outstanding, by written notice to the
Issuer and the Trustee, may rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences if: 
 (a) the Issuer has paid or
deposited with the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay: 
 (i) all payments of principal of and interest on all Obligations and
all other amounts that would then be due hereunder or upon such Obligations if the Event of Default giving rise to such acceleration had not occurred; and 
 (ii) all sums paid or advanced by the Trustee hereunder and the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, the Administrator, any Servicer, any Subservicer, the Delaware Trustee and
their agents and counsel; and 
 (b) all Events of Default, other than the nonpayment of the principal of the Obligations that
has become due solely by such acceleration, have been cured or waived as provided in Section 6.14 hereof. 
 No such rescission shall
affect any subsequent default or impair any right consequent thereto. 
 Section 6.09 Remedies Not Exclusive. The remedies herein
conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or the Registered Owners of Obligations are not intended to be exclusive of any other remedy, but each remedy herein provided shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other remedy given
hereunder or now or hereafter existing, and every power and remedy hereby given to the Trustee or to the Registered Owners of Obligations, or any supplement hereto, may be exercised from time to time as often as may be deemed expedient. No delay or
omission of the Trustee or of any Registered Owner of Obligations to exercise any power or right arising from any default hereunder shall impair any such right or power or shall be construed to be a waiver of any such default or to be acquiescence
therein. 
  

 70 








 Section 6.10 Collection of Indebtedness and Suits for Enforcement by Trustee. The Issuer
covenants that if: 
 (a) default is made in the payment of any installment of interest, if any, on any Notes when such
interest becomes due and payable and such default continues for a period of five (5) days; or 
 (b) default is made in
the payment of the principal of any Notes at their Note Final Maturity Date, 
 then the Issuer will, upon demand of the Trustee, pay to the Trustee, for the
benefit of the Registered Owners, the whole amount then due and payable on such Notes for principal and interest, with interest upon any overdue principal and, to the extent that payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable, upon any
overdue installments of interest, if any, at the rate or rates borne by or provided for in such Notes, and, in addition thereto, such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable
compensation, fees, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee and its agents and counsel. 
 If the Issuer fails to pay such
amounts forthwith upon such demand, the Trustee, in its own name and as Trustee of an express trust, may upon receiving indemnification satisfactory to the Trustee institute a judicial proceeding for the collection of the sums so due and unpaid, may
prosecute such proceeding to judgment or final decree, and may enforce the same against the Issuer or any other obligor upon such Notes of such Class and collect the moneys adjudged or decreed to be payable in the manner provided by law out of the
property of the Issuer or any other obligor upon such Notes, wherever situated. 
 If an Event of Default with respect to Notes occurs and is
continuing, the Trustee may, after being indemnified to its satisfaction and in its discretion, proceed to protect and enforce its rights and the rights of the Registered Owners of Notes by such appropriate judicial proceedings as the Trustee shall
deem most effectual to protect and enforce any such rights, whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement in this Indenture or in aid of the exercise of any power granted herein, or to enforce any other proper remedy. 

Section 6.11 Direction of Trustee. Upon the happening of any Event of Default, the Registered Owners of at least 51% of the collective
aggregate principal amount of the Highest Priority Obligations then Outstanding, shall have the right by an instrument or instruments in writing delivered to the Trustee to direct and control the Trustee as to the method of taking any and all
proceedings for any sale of any or all of the Trust Estate, or for the appointment of a receiver, if permitted by law, and may at any time cause any proceedings authorized by the terms hereof to be so taken or to be discontinued or delayed;
provided, however, that such Registered Owners shall not be entitled to cause the Trustee to take any proceedings which in the Trustee’s opinion would be unjustly prejudicial to non-assenting Registered Owners of Obligations, but the Trustee
shall be entitled to assume that the action requested by the Registered Owners of at least 51% of the collective aggregate principal amount of the Highest Priority Obligations then Outstanding will not be prejudicial to any non-assenting Registered
Owners unless the Registered Owners of more than 50% of the collective aggregate principal amount of the non-assenting Registered Owners of such Obligations, in writing, show the Trustee how they will be 

  

 71 








 
prejudiced. Provided, however, that anything in this Indenture to the contrary notwithstanding, the Registered Owners of a majority of the collective
aggregate principal amount of the Highest Priority Obligations then Outstanding together with the Registered Owners of a majority of the collective aggregate principal amount of all other Obligations then Outstanding shall have the right, at any
time, by an instrument or instruments in writing executed and delivered to the Trustee, to direct the method and place of conducting all proceedings to be taken in connection with the enforcement of the terms and conditions of this Indenture, or for
the appointment of a receiver or any other proceedings hereunder, provided that such direction shall not be otherwise than in accordance with the provisions of law and of this Indenture. The provisions of this Section shall be expressly subject to
the provisions of Sections 7.01(c), 7.05 and 7.07 hereof. 
 Section 6.12 Right to Enforce in Trustee. No Registered Owner of any
Obligation shall have any right as such Registered Owner to institute any suit, action or proceedings for the enforcement of the provisions of this Indenture or for the execution of any trust hereunder or for the appointment of a receiver or for any
other remedy hereunder, all rights of action hereunder being vested exclusively in the Trustee, unless and until such Registered Owner shall have previously given to the Trustee written notice of a default hereunder, and of the continuance thereof,
and also unless the Registered Owners of the requisite principal amount of the Obligations then Outstanding shall have made written request upon the Trustee and the Trustee shall have been afforded reasonable opportunity to institute such action,
suit or proceeding in its own name, and unless the Trustee shall have been offered indemnity and security satisfactory to it against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred therein or thereby, which offer of indemnity shall be an express
condition precedent hereunder to any obligation of the Trustee to take any such action hereunder, and the Trustee for 30 days after receipt of such notification, request and offer of indemnity, shall have failed to institute any such action, suit or
proceeding. It is understood and intended that no one or more Registered Owners of the Obligations shall have the right in any manner whatever by his or their action to affect, disturb or prejudice the lien of this Indenture or to enforce any right
hereunder except in the manner herein provided and for the equal benefit of the Registered Owners of not less than a majority of the collective aggregate principal amount of the Obligations then Outstanding. 
 Section 6.13 Physical Possession of Obligations Not Required. In any suit or action by the Trustee arising under this Indenture or on all or
any of the Obligations issued hereunder, or any supplement hereto, the Trustee shall not be required to produce such Obligations, but shall be entitled in all things to maintain such suit or action without their production. 
 Section 6.14 Waivers of Events of Default. The Trustee may in its discretion waive any Event of Default hereunder and its consequences and
rescind any declaration of acceleration of Obligations, and shall do so upon the written request of the Registered Owners of at least a majority of the collective aggregate principal amount of the Highest Priority Obligations then Outstanding;
provided, however, that there shall not be waived (a) any Event of Default in the payment of the principal of any Outstanding Obligations at the date of maturity thereof, or any default in the payment when due of the interest on any such
Obligations, unless prior to such waiver or rescission, all arrears of interest or all arrears of payments of principal and all expenses of the Trustee, in connection with such default shall have been paid or provided for; or (b) any default in
the payment of amounts set forth in Sections 7.05 and 7.07 hereof. In case of any such waiver or rescission, or in case any proceedings taken by the Trustee on account of any such 

  

 72 








 
default shall have been discontinued or abandoned or determined adversely to the Trustee, then and in every such case the Issuer, the Trustee and the
Registered Owners of Obligations shall be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder respectively, but no such waiver or rescission shall extend to or affect any subsequent or other default, or impair any rights or remedies consequent
thereon. The Trustee shall give written notice to each Rating Agency of any waiver of an Event of Default pursuant to this Section. 
 ARTICLE VII 
 THE TRUSTEE 
 Section 7.01 Acceptance of Trust. The Trustee hereby accepts the trusts imposed upon it by this Indenture, and agrees to perform said trusts, but only upon and subject to the following terms and
conditions: 
 (a) Except during the continuance of an Event of Default, 
 (i) the Trustee undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Indenture, and no implied
covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee; and 
 (ii) in the absence of bad faith on its
part, the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Indenture; but in the
case of any such certificates or opinions which by any provisions hereof are specifically required to be furnished to the Trustee, the Trustee shall be under a duty to examine the same to determine whether or not they conform as to form with the
requirements of this Indenture. 
 (b) In case an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee, in exercising
the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture, shall use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of his or her own affairs. 
 (c) Before taking any action hereunder requested by Registered Owners, the Trustee may require that it be furnished an indemnity bond or
other indemnity and security satisfactory to it by the Registered Owners, as applicable, for the reimbursement of all expenses to which it may be put and to protect it against all liability, including costs incurred in defending itself against any
and all charges, claims, complaints, allegations, assertions or demands of any nature whatsoever arising from or related to its role as Trustee, except liability which results from the negligence or willful misconduct of the Trustee including
without limitation negligence or willful misconduct with respect to moneys deposited and applied pursuant to this Indenture. 
 Section 7.02 Recitals of Others. The recitals, statements and representations set forth herein and in the Notes shall be taken as the statements of the Issuer, and the Trustee assumes no responsibility for the correctness of the
same. The Trustee makes no representations as to the title 

  

 73 








 
of the Issuer in the Trust Estate or as to the security afforded thereby and hereby, or as to the validity or sufficiency of this Indenture or of the Notes
issued hereunder, and the Trustee shall incur no responsibility in respect of such matters. 
 Section 7.03 As to Filing of
Indenture. The Trustee shall be under no duty (a) to file or record, or cause to be filed or recorded, this Indenture or any instrument supplemental hereto, (b) to procure any further order or additional instruments of further
assurance, (c) to see to the delivery to it of any personal property intended to be mortgaged or pledged hereunder or thereunder, (d) to do any act which may be suitable to be done for the better maintenance of the lien or security hereof
(other than the filing of any continuation (but not initial) statements), or (e) to give notice of the existence of such lien, or for extending or supplementing the same or to see that any rights to the Trust Estate and Funds intended now or
hereafter to be transferred in trust hereunder are subject to the lien hereof. The Trustee shall not be liable for failure of the Issuer to pay any tax or taxes in respect of such property, or any part thereof, or the income therefrom or otherwise,
nor shall the Trustee be under any duty in respect of any tax which may be assessed against it or the Registered Owners in respect of such property or pledged to the Trust Estate. The Trustee agrees to prepare, request that the Issuer execute (if
such execution is necessary for any such filing) and file in a timely manner (if received from the Issuer in a timely manner) with any necessary execution by the Issuer, the continuation statements referred to herein; provided, that the Trustee
shall have no responsibility for the sufficiency, adequacy or priority of any initial filing and in the absence of written notice to the contrary by the Issuer or other Authorized Representative, may rely and shall be protected in relying on all
information and exhibits in such initial filings for the purposes of any continuation statements. 
 Section 7.04 Trustee May Act
Through Agents. The Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers hereof and perform any duty hereunder, either itself or by or through its attorneys, agents or employees, and it shall not be answerable or accountable for any default, neglect
or misconduct of any such attorneys, agents or employees, if reasonable care has been exercised in the appointment, supervision and monitoring of the work performed. All reasonable costs incurred by the Trustee and all reasonable compensation to all
such persons as may reasonably be employed in connection with the trusts hereof shall be paid by the Issuer. 
 Section 7.05
Indemnification of Trustee. Other than with respect to its duties to make payment on the Obligations when due, and its duty to pursue the remedy of acceleration as provided in Sections 6.02 and 6.08 hereof, for each of which no additional
security or indemnity may be required, the Trustee shall be under no obligation or duty to perform any act at the request of Registered Owners or to institute or defend any suit in respect thereof unless properly indemnified and provided with
security to its satisfaction as provided in Section 7.01(c) hereof. The Trustee shall not be required to take notice, or be deemed to have knowledge, of any default or Event of Default of the Issuer hereunder and may conclusively assume that
there has been no such default or Event of Default (other than an Event of Default described in Section 6.01(a) or (b) hereof) unless and until it shall have been specifically notified in writing at the address in Section 9.01 hereof
of such default or Event of Default by (a) the Registered Owners of the required percentages in principal amount of the Obligations then Outstanding hereinabove specified or (b) an Authorized Representative of the Issuer. However, the
Trustee may begin suit, or appear in and defend suit, execute any of the trusts hereby created, enforce any of its rights or powers hereunder, or do anything else in its judgment proper to be done by it as Trustee, without 

  

 74 








 
assurance of reimbursement or indemnity, and in such case the Trustee shall be reimbursed or indemnified by the Registered Owners requesting such action, if
any, or the Issuer in all other cases, for all fees, costs and expenses, liabilities, outlays and counsel fees and other reasonable disbursements properly incurred in connection therewith, unless such costs and expenses, liabilities, outlays and
attorneys’ fees and other reasonable disbursements properly incurred in connection therewith are adjudicated to have resulted from the negligence or willful misconduct of the Trustee. In furtherance and not in limitation of this Section, the
Trustee shall not be liable for, and shall be held harmless by the Issuer from, following any Issuer Orders, instructions or other directions upon which the Trustee is authorized to rely pursuant to this Indenture or any other agreement to which it
is a party. If the Issuer or the Registered Owners, as appropriate, shall fail to make such reimbursement or indemnification, the Trustee may reimburse itself from any money in its possession under the provisions of this Indenture, subject only to
the prior lien of the Notes for the payment of the principal thereof and interest thereon from the Collection Fund. None of the provisions contained in this Indenture or any other agreement to which it is a party shall require the Trustee to act or
to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur individual financial liability in the performance of any of its duties or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers if the Registered Owners shall not have offered security and indemnity
acceptable to it or if it shall have reasonable grounds for believing that prompt repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it. 
 The Issuer agrees to indemnify the Trustee for, and to hold it harmless against, any loss, liability or expenses incurred without negligence or bad faith
on its part, arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of the trust or trusts hereunder, including the costs and expenses of defending itself against any claim or liability in connection with the exercise or performance
of any of its powers or duties hereunder arising from the Trust Estate. The Issuer agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Trustee against any and all claims, demands, suits, actions or other proceedings and all liabilities, costs and expenses
whatsoever caused by any untrue statement or misleading statement or alleged untrue statement or alleged misleading statement of a material fact contained in any offering document distributed in connection with the issuance of the Notes or caused by
any omission or alleged omission from such offering document of any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements made therein in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

 Section 7.06 Trustee’s Right to Reliance. The Trustee shall be protected in acting upon any notice, resolution, request,
consent, order, certificate, report, appraisal, opinion, report or document of the Issuer, the Administrator, a Servicer or a Subservicer or other paper or document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper
party or parties and the Trustee shall be under no duty to make any investigation as to any statement contained in any such instance, paper or document, but may accept the same as conclusive evidence of the truth and accuracy of such statement.
Before acting or refraining from acting in the administration hereof, the Trustee may consult with experts and with counsel (who may but need not be counsel for the Issuer, the Trustee, the Administrator or a Registered Owner), and the opinion of
such counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken or suffered, and in respect of any determination made by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance with the opinion of such counsel. 

 

 75 








 Whenever in the administration hereof the Trustee shall reasonably deem it desirable that a matter be
proved or established prior to taking, suffering or omitting any action hereunder, the Trustee (unless other evidence be herein specifically prescribed) may, in the absence of bad faith on its part, rely upon a certificate signed by an Authorized
Representative of the Issuer or an authorized officer of the Administrator, a Servicer or a Subservicer. 
 The Trustee shall not be bound to
ascertain or inquire as to the performance or observance of any covenants, conditions, or agreements on the part of the Issuer or any Servicer or Subservicer but the Trustee may require of the Issuer or any Servicer or Subservicer full information
and advice as to the performance of any covenants, conditions or agreements pertaining to the Financed Eligible Loans. 
 The Trustee shall
not be liable for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it in good faith and believed by it to be authorized or within the discretion or rights or powers conferred upon it hereby or error of judgment made in good faith; provided, however, that
the Trustee shall be liable for its negligence or willful misconduct in taking such action. 
 The Trustee is authorized to enter into
agreements with other Persons, in its capacity as Trustee, in order to carry out or implement the terms and provisions of this Indenture. The Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action taken, suffered or omitted to be taken in good faith
in accordance with this Indenture or any other transaction document or at the direction of the Registered Owners evidencing the appropriate percentage of the aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Notes relating to the time, method and place
of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred upon the Trustee, under this Indenture or any other transaction document. 
 Section 7.07 Compensation of Trustee. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all advances, counsel fees (including without limitation
allocated fees of in-house counsel) and other expenses reasonably made or incurred by the Trustee in and about the execution and administration of the trust hereby created and reasonable compensation to the Trustee for its services in the premises
shall be paid by the Issuer. The compensation of the Trustee shall not be limited to or by any provision of law in regard to the compensation of trustees of an express trust. The Trustee shall not change the Trustee Fee without giving the Issuer and
each Rating Agency at least 90 days’ written notice prior to the beginning of a Fiscal Year. If not paid by the Issuer, the Trustee shall have a lien against all money held pursuant to this Indenture, subject only to the prior lien of the
Obligations against the money and investments in the Collection Fund for the payment of the principal thereof and interest thereon, for such reasonable compensation, expenses, advances and counsel fees incurred in and about the execution of the
trusts hereby created and the exercise and performance of the powers and duties of the Trustee hereunder and the cost and expense incurred in defending against any liability in the premises of any character whatsoever (unless such liability is
adjudicated to have resulted from the negligence or willful misconduct of the Trustee). 
 Section 7.08 Creditor Relationships.
The Trustee shall comply with Section 311(a) of the Trust Indenture Act, excluding any creditor relationship listed in Section 311(b) of the Trust Indenture Act. A Trustee who has resigned or been removed shall be subject to
Section 311(a) of the Trust Indenture Act to the extent indicated therein. The Trustee may act as depository for, 

  

 76 








 
and permit any of its officers or directors to act as a member of, or act in any other capacity in respect to, any committee formed to protect the rights of
the Registered Owners or to effect or aid in any reorganization growing out of the enforcement of the Notes or of this Indenture, whether or not any such committee shall represent the Registered Owners of more than 60% of the collective aggregate
principal amount of the Outstanding Obligations. 
 Section 7.09 Resignation of Trustee. The Trustee and any successor to the
Trustee may resign and be discharged from the trust created by this Indenture by giving to the Issuer notice in writing which notice shall specify the date on which such resignation is to take effect; provided, however, that such resignation shall
only take effect on the day specified in such notice if a successor Trustee shall have been appointed pursuant to Section 7.11 hereof (and is qualified to be the Trustee under the requirements of Section 7.11 hereof). If no successor
Trustee has been appointed by the date specified or within a period of 90 days from the receipt of the notice by the Issuer, whichever period is the longer, the Trustee may (a) appoint a temporary successor Trustee having the qualifications
provided in Section 7.11 hereof or (b) request a court of competent jurisdiction to (i) require the Issuer to appoint a successor, as provided in Section 7.11 hereof, within three days of the receipt of citation or notice by the
court, or (ii) appoint a Trustee having the qualifications provided in Section 7.11 hereof. In no event may the resignation of the Trustee be effective until a qualified successor Trustee shall have been selected and appointed. In the
event a temporary successor Trustee is appointed pursuant to clause (a) above, the Issuer may remove such temporary successor Trustee and appoint a successor thereto pursuant to Section 7.11 hereof. 
 Section 7.10 Removal of Trustee. The Trustee or any successor Trustee may be removed (a) at any time by the Registered Owners of a
majority of the collective aggregate principal amount of the Highest Priority Obligations then Outstanding, (b) by the Issuer for cause or upon the sale or other disposition of the Trustee or its corporate trust functions or (c) by the
Issuer without cause so long as no Event of Default exists or has existed within the last 30 days, upon payment to the Trustee so removed of all money then due to it hereunder and appointment of a successor thereto by the Issuer and acceptance
thereof by said successor. One copy of any such order of removal shall be filed with the Delaware Trustee and the other with the Trustee so removed. 
 In the event a Trustee (or successor Trustee) is removed, by any person or for any reason permitted hereunder, such removal shall not become effective until (a) in the case of removal by the Registered Owners,
such Registered Owners by instrument or concurrent instruments in writing (signed and acknowledged by such Registered Owners or their attorneys-in-fact) filed with the Trustee removed have appointed a successor Trustee or otherwise the Issuer shall
have appointed a successor, and (b) the successor Trustee has accepted appointment as such. 
 Section 7.11 Successor
Trustee. In case at any time the Trustee or any successor Trustee shall resign, be dissolved, or otherwise shall be disqualified to act or be incapable of acting, or in case control of the Trustee or of any successor Trustee or of its officers
shall be taken over by any public officer or officers, a successor Trustee may be appointed by the Issuer by an instrument in writing duly authorized by the Issuer. In the case of any such appointment by the Issuer of a successor to the Trustee, the
Issuer shall forthwith cause notice thereof to be 

  

 77 








 
mailed to the Registered Owners of the Notes at the address of each Registered Owner appearing on the note registration books maintained by the Trustee, as
registrar. 
 Every successor Trustee appointed by the Registered Owners, by a court of competent jurisdiction, or by the Issuer shall be a
bank or trust company in good standing, organized and doing business under the laws of the United States or of a state therein, which has a reported capital and surplus of not less than $50,000,000, be authorized under the law to exercise corporate
trust powers, be subject to supervision or examination by a federal or state authority, and be an Eligible Lender so long as such designation is necessary to maintain guarantees and federal benefits under the Higher Education Act with respect to the
Financed Eligible Loans originated under the Higher Education Act. 
 Section 7.12 Manner of Vesting Title in Trustee. Any
successor Trustee appointed hereunder shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to its predecessor Trustee, and also to the Issuer, an instrument accepting such appointment hereunder, and thereupon such successor Trustee, without any further act, deed
or conveyance shall become fully vested with all the estate, properties, rights, powers, trusts, duties and obligations of its predecessors in trust hereunder (except that the predecessor Trustee shall continue to have the benefits to
indemnification hereunder together with the successor Trustee), with like effect as if originally named as Trustee herein; but the Trustee ceasing to act shall nevertheless, on the written request of an Authorized Representative of the Issuer, or an
authorized officer of the successor Trustee, execute, acknowledge and deliver such instruments of conveyance and further assurance and do such other things as may reasonably be required for more fully and certainly vesting and confirming in such
successor Trustee all the right, title and interest of the Trustee which it succeeds, in and to the Trust Estate and such rights, powers, trusts, duties and obligations, and the Trustee ceasing to act also, upon like request, pay over, assign and
deliver to the successor Trustee any money or other property or rights subject to the lien of this Indenture, including any pledged securities which may then be in its possession. Should any deed or instrument in writing from the Issuer be required
by the successor Trustee for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to such new Trustee such estate, properties, rights, powers and duties, any and all such deeds and instruments in writing shall on request be executed, acknowledged and
delivered by the Issuer. 
 In case any of the Notes to be issued hereunder shall have been authenticated but not delivered, any successor
Trustee may adopt the certificate of authentication of the Trustee or of any successor to the Trustee; and in case any of the Notes shall not have been authenticated, any successor to the Trustee may authenticate such Notes in its own name; and in
all such cases such certificate shall have the full force which it has anywhere in the Notes or in this Indenture. 
 Section 7.13
Additional Covenants by the Trustee to Conform to the Higher Education Act. The Trustee covenants that it will at all times be an Eligible Lender under the Higher Education Act so long as such designation is necessary, as determined by the
Issuer, to maintain the guarantees and federal benefits under the Higher Education Act with respect to the Financed Eligible Loans, that it will acquire Eligible Loans originated under the Higher Education Act in its capacity as an Eligible Lender
and that it will not knowingly dispose of or deliver any Financed Eligible Loans originated under the Higher Education Act or any security interest in any such Financed Eligible Loans to any party who is not an Eligible Lender so long 

  

 78 








 
as the Higher Education Act or Regulations adopted thereunder require an Eligible Lender to be the owner or holder of such Financed Eligible Loans; provided,
however, that nothing above shall prevent the Trustee from delivering the Eligible Loans to a Servicer, a Subservicer or a Guaranty Agency. 
 Section 7.14 Right of Inspection. (a) A Registered Owner shall be permitted at reasonable times during regular business hours and in accordance with reasonable regulations prescribed by the Trustee to examine at the
principal office of the Trustee a copy of any report or instrument theretofore filed with the Trustee relating to the condition of the Trust Estate. 
 (b) At any and all reasonable times, the Trustee, and its duly authorized agents, attorneys, experts, accountants and representatives, shall have the right to fully inspect all books, papers and records of the Issuer,
the Administrator and any Servicer or Subservicer pertaining to Financed Eligible Loans, and to copy or to take such memoranda from and in regard thereto as may be desired. 
 Section 7.15 Limitation with Respect to Examination of Reports. Except as provided in this Indenture, the Trustee shall be under no duty to
examine any report or statement or other document required or permitted to be filed with it by or on behalf of the Issuer, the Administrator, or any Servicer or Subservicer, and the Trustee may accept the same as conclusive evidence of the truth and
accuracy of any statement contained therein or as to the existence or non-existence of any fact stated therein. 
 Section 7.16
Servicing Agreements. The Trustee acknowledges the receipt of copies of the Servicing Agreements and Subservicing Agreements described in Section 4.04 hereof. 
 Section 7.17 Additional Covenants of Trustee. The Trustee, by the execution hereof, covenants, represents and agrees that: 
 (a) it will not exercise any of the rights, duties or privileges under this Indenture in such manner as would cause the Eligible Loans
held or acquired under the terms hereof to be transferred, assigned or pledged as security to any person or entity other than as permitted by this Indenture; 
 (b) it will comply with the Higher Education Act and the Regulations and will, upon written notice from an Authorized Representative of
the Issuer, the Secretary or a Guaranty Agency, use its reasonable efforts to cause this Indenture to be amended (in accordance with Section 8.01 hereof) if the Higher Education Act or Regulations are hereafter amended so as to be contrary to
the terms of this Indenture; and 
 (c) it will comply with each covenant, agreement or undertaking set forth in the
Securitization Cooperation Annex. 
 Section 7.18 Notices to Rating Agencies. It shall be the duty of the Issuer to notify each
Rating Agency then rating any of the Notes of (a) any amendment, change, expiration, extension or renewal of this Indenture, (b) prepayment or defeasance of all the Notes, (c) any change in the Trustee and (d) any other
information reasonably required to be reported to each Rating Agency under any Supplemental Indenture; provided, however, the provisions of this 

  

 79 








 
Section do not apply when such documents have been previously supplied to such Rating Agency and the Trustee has received written evidence to such effect,
all as may be required by this Indenture. All notices required to be forwarded to the Rating Agencies under this Section shall be sent in writing (which shall include electronic transmission) at the following addresses:

 The Trustee also acknowledges that each Rating Agency’s periodic review for maintenance of a Rating on any Class of
the Notes may involve discussions and/or meetings with representatives of the Trustee at mutually agreeable times and places. 
 Section 7.19 Merger of the Trustee. Any corporation into which the Trustee may be merged or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger or consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a party,
or any corporation succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate trust business of the Trustee, shall be the successor of the Trustee hereunder, provided such corporation shall be otherwise qualified and eligible under this Indenture,
without the execution or filing of any paper of any further act on the part of any other parties hereto. 
  

 80 








 Section 7.20 Receipt of Funds from and Actions of a Servicer or Subservicer. The Trustee
shall not be accountable or responsible in any manner whatsoever for any action of the Issuer, the Administrator, the depository bank of any funds of the Issuer, or any Servicer or Subservicer while such Servicer or Subservicer is acting as bailee
or agent of the Trustee with respect to the Eligible Loans for actions taken in compliance with any instruction or direction given to the Trustee, or for the application of funds or moneys by any Servicer or Subservicer until such time as funds are
received by the Trustee. The Trustee shall not be liable for any act or omission by a Servicer. The Trustee shall be under no duty to service or monitor the servicing of Financed Eligible Loans and the Administrator on behalf of the Issuer shall be
responsible for selecting, contracting with or otherwise engaging any Servicer and monitoring any Servicer. 
 Section 7.21 Special
Circumstances Leading to Resignation of Trustee. Because the Trustee serves as trustee hereunder for Obligations of different priorities, it is possible that circumstances may arise which will cause the Trustee to resign from its position as
trustee for one or more but not all of the Obligations. In the event that the Trustee makes a determination that it should so resign due to the occurrence of an Event of Default or potential default hereunder or otherwise, the Issuer may permit such
resignation as to one or more but not all of the Obligations or request the Trustee’s resignation as to all Obligations, as the Issuer may elect. If the Issuer should determine that a conflict of interest has arisen as to the trusteeship of any
of the Obligations, it may authorize and execute a Supplemental Indenture with one or more successor Trustees, under which the administration of certain of the Obligations would be separated from the administration of the other Obligations.

 Section 7.22 Survival of Trustee’s Rights to Receive Compensation, Reimbursement and Indemnification. The Trustee’s
rights to receive compensation, reimbursement and indemnification of money due and owing hereunder at the time of the Trustee’s resignation or removal shall survive the Trustee’s resignation or removal. 
 Section 7.23 Corporate Trustee Required; Eligibility; Conflicting Interests. There shall at all times be a Trustee hereunder which shall be
eligible to act as Trustee under Section 310(a)(1) of the Trust Indenture Act and shall have a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000. If such corporation publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or the
requirements of federal, state, territorial or District of Columbia supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section, the combined capital and surplus of such corporation shall be deemed to be its combined capital and
surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. If at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, it shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect
hereinafter specified in this Article. Neither the Issuer nor any Person directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by, or under common control with, the Issuer shall serve as Trustee. 
 Section 7.24 Trustee May File Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy,
reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to the Issuer or any other obligor upon the Notes or the property of the Issuer or of such other obligor or their creditors, the Trustee (irrespective of
whether the principal of the Notes of any Class shall then be due and payable as therein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Trustee shall 

  

 81 








 
have made any demand on the Issuer for the payment of overdue principal or interest) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or
otherwise: 
 (a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount, or such lesser amount as may be provided for in the Notes,
of principal and interest, if any, owing and unpaid in respect of the Notes and to file such other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for the reasonable fees,
compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee and its agents and counsel) and of the Registered Owners allowed in such judicial proceeding; and 
 (b) to collect and receive any money or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same; and any
custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator (or other similar official) in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Registered Owner of Notes to make such payments to the Trustee, and if the Trustee shall
consent to the making of such payments directly to the Registered Owners, to pay to the Trustee any amount due to it for the reasonable fees, compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee and any predecessor Trustee, their agents
and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee or any predecessor Trustee. 
 Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the
Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Registered Owner of a Note any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Notes or the rights of any Registered Owner thereof, or to authorize
the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Registered Owner of a Note in any such proceeding. 
 In any proceedings brought by the
Trustee (and also any proceedings involving the interpretation of any provision of this Indenture to which the Trustee shall be a party), the Trustee shall be held to represent all the Registered Owners of the Notes, and it shall not be necessary to
make any Registered Owners of the Notes parties to any such proceedings. 
 Section 7.25 No Petition. The Trustee will not at any
time institute against the Issuer any bankruptcy proceeding under any United States federal or State bankruptcy or similar law in connection with any obligations of the Issuer under this Indenture. 
 Section 7.26 Article Controlling as to Trustee Conduct and Liability. Whether or not therein expressly so provided, every provision of this
Indenture relating to the conduct or affecting the liability of the Trustee shall be subject to this Article VII. 
 ARTICLE VIII

 SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURES 
 Section 8.01 Supplemental Indentures Not Requiring Consent of Registered Owners. The Issuer and the Trustee may, without the consent of or notice to any of the Registered Owners of any Obligations enter into any indenture or
indentures supplemental to this Indenture for any one or more of the following purposes: 
  

 82 








 (a) to cure any ambiguity or formal defect or omission in this Indenture;

authorities that may lawfully be granted to or conferred upon the Registered Owners or the Trustee; 
 (c) to subject to this
Indenture additional revenues, properties or collateral; 
 (d) to modify, amend or supplement this Indenture or any indenture
supplemental hereto in such manner as to permit the qualification hereof and thereof under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939 or any similar federal statute hereafter in effect or to permit the qualification of the Notes for sale under the securities
laws of the United States of America or of any of the states of the United States of America, and, if they so determine, to add to this Indenture or any indenture supplemental hereto such other terms, conditions and provisions as may be permitted by
said Trust Indenture Act of 1939 or similar federal statute; 
 (e) to evidence the appointment of a separate or co-Trustee or
a co-registrar or transfer agent or the succession of a new Trustee hereunder, or any additional or substitute Guaranty Agency, Servicer or Subservicer; 
 (f) to add such provisions to or to amend such provisions of this Indenture as may be necessary or desirable to assure implementation of the Program in conformance with the Higher Education Act if along with such
Supplemental Indenture there is filed an opinion of counsel to the effect that the addition or amendment of such provisions will in no way impair the existing security of the Registered Owners of any Outstanding Obligations; 
 (g) to make any change as shall be necessary in order to obtain and maintain for any of the Notes an investment grade Rating from a
nationally recognized rating service, which changes, in the opinion of the Trustee are not to the prejudice of the Registered Owner of any of the Obligations; 
 (h) to make any changes necessary to comply or obtain more favorable treatment under any current or future law, rule or regulation,
including the Higher Education Act, the Regulations or the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder; 
 (i) to make the
terms and provisions of this Indenture, including the lien and security interest granted herein, applicable to a Derivative Product, and to modify this Indenture with respect to any particular Derivative Product;

 (k) to make any other change with a Rating Confirmation; or 
 (l) to make any other change which, in the judgment of the Trustee is not to the material prejudice of the Registered Owners of any
Obligations; 
  

 83 








 provided, however, that nothing in this Section shall permit, or be construed as permitting, any modification of the
trusts, powers, rights, duties, remedies, immunities and privileges of the Trustee without the prior written approval of the Trustee, which approval shall be evidenced by execution of a Supplemental Indenture. 
 Section 8.02 Supplemental Indentures Requiring Consent of Registered Owners. Exclusive of Supplemental Indentures covered by
Section 8.01 hereof and subject to the terms and provisions contained in this Section, and not otherwise, the Registered Owners of not less than a majority of the collective aggregate principal amount of the Obligations then Outstanding that
are adversely affected thereby shall have the right, from time to time, to consent to and approve the execution by the Issuer and the Trustee of such other indenture or indentures supplemental hereto as shall be deemed necessary and desirable by the
Trustee for the purpose of modifying, altering, amending, adding to or rescinding, in any particular, any of the terms or provisions contained in this Indenture or in any Supplemental Indenture; provided, however, that nothing in this Section shall
permit, or be construed as permitting (a) without the consent of the Registered Owners of all then Outstanding Obligations adversely affected thereby, (i) an extension of the Note Final Maturity Date or interest payment date for any Note,
or (ii) a reduction in the principal amount of any Obligation or the rate of interest thereon, or (iii) a privilege or priority of any Obligation or Obligations over any other Obligation or Obligations except as otherwise provided herein,
or (iv) a reduction in the aggregate principal amount of the Obligations required for consent to such Supplemental Indenture, or (v) the creation of any lien other than a lien ratably securing all of the Obligations at any time Outstanding
hereunder except as otherwise provided herein; or (b) any modification of the trusts, powers, rights, obligations, duties, remedies, immunities and privileges of the Trustee without the prior written approval of the Trustee. 
 If at any time the Issuer shall request the Trustee to enter into any such Supplemental Indenture for any of the purposes of this Section, the Trustee
shall, upon being satisfactorily indemnified with respect to expenses, cause notice of the proposed execution of such Supplemental Indenture to be mailed by registered or certified mail to each Registered Owner of an Obligation at the address shown
on the registration books or listed in any Derivative Product. Such notice (which shall be prepared by the Issuer) shall briefly set forth the nature of the proposed Supplemental Indenture and shall state that copies thereof are on file at the
principal corporate trust office of the Trustee for inspection by all Registered Owners. If, within 60 days, or such longer period as shall be prescribed by the Issuer, following the mailing of such notice, the Registered Owners of not less than a
majority of the collective aggregate principal amount of the Obligations Outstanding at the time of the execution of any such Supplemental Indenture shall have consented in writing to and approved the execution thereof as herein provided, no
Registered Owner of any Obligation shall have any right to object to any of the terms and provisions contained therein, or the operation thereof, or in any manner to question the propriety of the execution thereof, or to enjoin or restrain the
Trustee or the Issuer from executing the same or from taking any action pursuant to the provisions thereof. Upon the execution of any such Supplemental Indenture as in this Section permitted and provided, this Indenture shall be and be deemed to be
modified and amended in accordance therewith. 
  

 84 








 Section 8.03 Additional Limitation on Modification of Indenture. None of the provisions of
this Indenture (including Sections 8.01 and 8.02 hereof) shall permit an amendment to the provisions of the Indenture which permits the transfer of all or part of the Financed Eligible Loans originated under the Higher Education Act or granting of a
security interest therein to any Person other than an Eligible Lender, a Servicer, a Subservicer or a Guaranty Agency, unless the Higher Education Act or Regulations are hereafter modified so as to permit the same. The Trustee may request an Opinion
of Counsel to the effect that an amendment or supplement to this Indenture was adopted in conformance with this Indenture. 
 Section 8.04 Notice of Defaults. Within 90 days after the occurrence of any default hereunder with respect to the Notes, the Trustee shall transmit in the manner and to the extent provided in Section 313(c) of the Trust
Indenture Act, notice of such default hereunder known to the Trustee, unless such default shall have been cured or waived; provided, however, that, except in the case of a default in the payment of the principal of or interest with respect to any
Note, or in the payment of any sinking fund installment with respect to the Notes, the Trustee shall be protected in withholding such notice if and so long as an authorized officer of the Trustee in good faith determines that the withholding of such
notice is in the interest of the Registered Owners of the Notes. For the purpose of this Section, the term “default” means any event which is, or after notice or lapse of time or both would become, an Event of Default with respect to the
Notes. 
 Section 8.05 Conformity with the Trust Indenture Act. Every supplemental indenture executed pursuant to this Article
shall conform to the requirements of the Trust Indenture Act as then in effect. 
 ARTICLE IX 
 GENERAL PROVISIONS

of similar tenor, and may be signed or executed by such Registered Owners of Obligations in person or by agent appointed in writing. As a condition for acting thereunder the Trustee may demand proof of the execution of any such instrument and of the
fact that any person claiming to be the owner of any of said Obligations is such owner and may further require the actual deposit of such Obligation or Obligations with the Trustee. The fact and date of the execution of such instrument may be proved

 Section 9.02 Covenants Bind
Issuer. The covenants, agreements, conditions, promises, and undertakings in this Indenture shall extend to and be binding upon the successors 

  

 86 








 
and assigns of the Issuer, and all of the covenants hereof shall bind such successors and assigns, and each of them, jointly and severally. All the
covenants, conditions and provisions hereof shall be held to be for the sole and exclusive benefit of the parties hereto and their successors and assigns and of the Registered Owners from time to time of the Obligations. 
 No extension of time of payment of any of the Obligations shall operate to release or discharge the Issuer, it being agreed that the liability of the
Issuer, to the extent permitted by law, shall continue until all of the Obligations are paid in full, notwithstanding any transfer of Financed Eligible Loans or extension of time for payment. 
 Section 9.03 Lien Created. This Indenture shall operate effectually as (a) a grant of lien on and security interest in, and (b) an
assignment of, the Trust Estate. 
 Section 9.04 Severability of Lien. If the lien of this Indenture shall be or shall ever
become ineffectual, invalid or unenforceable against any part of the Trust Estate that is not subject to the lien because of want of power or title in the Issuer, the inclusion of any such part shall not in any way affect or invalidate the pledge
and lien hereof against such part of the Trust Estate as to which the Issuer in fact had the right to pledge. 
 Section 9.05 Consent
of Registered Owners Binds Successors. Any request or consent of the Registered Owner of any Obligations given for any of the purposes of this Indenture shall bind all future Registered Owners of the same Obligation or any Obligations issued in
exchange therefor or in substitution thereof in respect of anything done or suffered by the Issuer or the Trustee in pursuance of such request or consent. 
 Section 9.06 Nonliability of Persons; No General Obligation. It is hereby expressly made a condition of this Indenture that any agreements, covenants or representations herein contained or contained in the
Notes do not and shall never constitute or give rise to a personal or pecuniary liability or charge against the organizers, officers, employees, agents or trustees or the Administrator of the Issuer, or against the general credit of the Issuer, and
in the event of a breach of any such agreement, covenant or representation, no personal or pecuniary liability or charge payable directly or indirectly from the general revenues of the Issuer shall arise therefrom. Nothing contained in this Section,
however, shall relieve the Issuer from the observance and performance of the several covenants and agreements on its part herein contained. 
 Section 9.07 Nonpresentment of Notes. Should any of the Notes not be presented for payment when due, the Trustee shall retain from any money transferred to it for the purpose of paying the Notes so due, for the benefit of the
Registered Owners thereof, a sum of money sufficient to pay such Notes when the same are presented by the Registered Owners thereof for payment. Such money shall not be required to be invested. All liability of the Issuer to the Registered Owners of
such Notes and all rights of such Registered Owners against the Issuer under the Notes or under this Indenture shall thereupon cease and determine, and the sole right of such Registered Owners shall thereafter be against such deposit. If any Note
shall not be presented for payment within the period of two years following its payment or prepayment date, the Trustee shall return to the Issuer the money theretofore held by it for payment of such Note, and such Note shall (subject to the defense
of any applicable statute of limitation) thereafter be 

  

 87 








 
an unsecured obligation of the Issuer. The Trustee’s responsibility for any such money shall cease upon remittance thereof to the Issuer. 
 Section 9.08 Security Agreement. This Indenture constitutes a Financing Statement and a Security Agreement under the Uniform Commercial Code
as in effect in New York and Delaware. 
 Section 9.09 Laws Governing. It is the intent of the parties hereto that this Indenture
shall in all respects be governed by the laws of the State of New York. This Indenture is subject to the provisions of the Trust Indenture Act that are required to be part of this Indenture and shall, to the extent applicable, be governed by such
provisions. 
 Section 9.10 Severability. If any covenant, agreement, waiver, or part thereof in this Indenture contained be
forbidden by any pertinent law or under any pertinent law be effective to render this Indenture invalid or unenforceable or to impair the lien hereof, then each such covenant, agreement, waiver, or part thereof shall itself be and is hereby declared
to be wholly ineffective, and this Indenture shall be construed as if the same were not included herein. 
 Section 9.11
Exhibits. The terms of the Schedules, Exhibits and Annexes, if any, attached to this Indenture are incorporated herein in all particulars. 
 Section 9.12 Non-Business Days. Except as may otherwise be provided herein, if the date for making payment of any amount hereunder or on any Note, or if the date for taking any action hereunder, is not a Business Day, then such
payment can be made without accruing further interest or action can be taken on the next succeeding Business Day, with the same force and effect as if such payment were made when due or action taken on such required date. 
 Section 9.13 Parties Interested Herein. Nothing in this Indenture expressed or implied is intended or shall be construed to confer upon, or
to give to, any person or entity, other than the Trustee, the Delaware Trustee, the Paying Agent, if any, and the Registered Owners of the Obligations, any right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Indenture or any covenant, condition or
stipulation hereof, and all covenants, stipulations, promises and agreements in this Indenture contained by and on behalf of the Issuer shall be for the sole and exclusive benefit of the Trustee, the Paying Agent, if any, and the Registered Owners
of the Obligations. 
 Section 9.14 Obligations Are Limited Obligations. The Notes and the obligations of the Issuer contained in
this Indenture are special, limited obligations of the Issuer, secured by and payable solely from the Trust Estate herein provided. The Issuer shall not be obligated to pay the Notes, the interest thereon, or any other obligation created by or
arising from this Indenture from any other source. 
 Section 9.15 Limitations on Counterparty Rights. No Counterparty which
shall be in default under any Derivative Product with the Issuer shall have any of the rights granted to a Counterparty or a Registered Owner of an Obligation hereunder. A Counterparty which is in default under any Derivative Product shall however,
continue to maintain all obligations undertaken by it under the terms of its Derivative Product. No Counterparty shall have any consent or voting rights under this Indenture, or any rights to instruct the Trustee to take, or refrain from taking, any
action hereunder except upon satisfaction of a Rating Confirmation. 
  

 88 








 Section 9.16 Disclosure of Names and Addresses of Registered Owners. 
 (a) Registered Owners may communicate pursuant to Section 312(b) of the Trust Indenture Act with other Registered Owners with respect
to their rights under this Indenture or under the Notes. Upon receipt by the Trustee of any request by three or more Registered Owners or by one or more holders of Notes evidencing not less than 25% of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes to receive
a copy of the current list of Registered Owners (whether or not made pursuant to Section 312(b) of the Trust Indenture Act), the Trustee shall promptly notify the Issuer thereof by providing to the Issuer a copy of such request and a copy of
the list of Registered Owners produced in response thereto. 
 (b) Registered Owners of Notes, by receiving and holding the
same, agree with the Issuer and the Trustee that neither the Issuer nor the Trustee nor any Clearing Agency shall be held accountable by reason of the disclosure of any information as to the names and addresses of the Registered Owners of Notes in
accordance with Section 312 of the Trust Indenture Act, regardless of the source from which such information was derived, and that the Trustee shall not be held accountable by reason of mailing any material pursuant to a request made under
Section 312(b) of the Trust Indenture Act. 
 Section 9.17 Aggregate Principal Amount of Obligations. Whenever in this
Indenture reference is made to the aggregate principal amount of any Obligations, such phrase shall mean, at any time, the principal amount of any Notes and the Derivative Value of any Derivative Product. 
 Section 9.18 Financed Eligible Loans. The Issuer expects to acquire Eligible Loans and to transfer Eligible Loans to the Trustee, in
accordance with this Indenture, which Eligible Loans, upon becoming subject to the lien of this Indenture, constitute Financed Eligible Loans, as defined herein. If for any reason a Financed Eligible Loan does not constitute an Eligible Loan, or
ceases to constitute an Eligible Loan, such loan shall continue to be subject to the lien of this Indenture as a Financed Eligible Loan. 
 Section 9.19 Concerning The Delaware Trustee. It is expressly understood and agreed by the parties to this Indenture and the Registered Owners that (a) this Indenture is executed and delivered by the Delaware Trustee not in
its individual or personal capacity but solely in its capacity as Delaware Trustee under the Trust Agreement on behalf of the Issuer, in the exercise of the powers and authority conferred and vested in it as Delaware Trustee under the Trust
Agreement, subject to the protections, indemnities and limitations from liability afforded to the Delaware Trustee thereunder; (b) the representations, warranties, covenants, undertakings, agreements and obligations by the Delaware Trustee are
made and intended not as personal representations, warranties, covenants, undertakings, agreements and obligations by Wilmington Trust Company, but are made and intended for the purpose of only binding the Trust Estate, as defined in the Trust
Agreement, and the Issuer; (c) nothing contained herein shall be construed as creating any liability on Wilmington Trust Company, individually or personally, to perform any expressed or implied covenant, duty or obligation of any kind
whatsoever contained herein; and (d) under no circumstances shall Wilmington Trust Company, be personally liable for the payment of any fees, costs, indebtedness or expenses of any kind whatsoever or be personally 

  

 89 








 
liable for the breach or failure of any obligation, representation, agreement, warranty or covenant whatsoever made or undertaken by the Delaware Trustee or
Issuer hereunder. 
 Section 9.20 Subordination of Counterparties. All rights and interest of any Counterparty in the security
interest granted to the Trustee under this Indenture with respect to any Termination Payments (other than Priority Termination Payments) shall be fully subordinated to the interests of the Registered Owners of the Notes. No Counterparty shall have
any rights, implied or otherwise, in the Trust Estate with respect to any Termination Payments (other than Priority Termination Payments) until after the Outstanding Amount of the Notes has been reduced to zero and the Registered Owners have been
paid all amounts owed to them under this Indenture. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions of this Section shall not modify or otherwise affect the contractual priority of payments set forth in Sections 5.04(b) and (c) hereof. More
specifically, no Counterparty shall have any voting rights or rights to exercise any remedies under this Indenture until after the Outstanding Amount of the Notes has been reduced to zero and the Registered Owners have been paid all amounts owed to
them under this Indenture. After the Outstanding Amount of the Notes has been reduced to zero and the Registered Owners have been paid all amounts owed to them under this Indenture, each Counterparty shall have all of the rights and obligations,
including all voting rights, of the Registered Owners set forth in this Indenture. 
 Section 9.21 Subordination of Claims. The
Issuer’s obligations under this Indenture are obligations solely of the Issuer and will not constitute a claim against the Depositor to the extent that the Issuer does not have funds sufficient to make payment of such obligations. In
furtherance of and not in derogation of the foregoing, each of the Trustee (in its individual capacity and as the Trustee), by entering into this Indenture, and each Noteholder or any other beneficiary, by accepting the benefits of this Indenture,
hereby acknowledges and agrees that the Trustee, such Noteholder and any other such beneficiary has no right, title or interest in or to the Other Assets of the Depositor. To the extent that, notwithstanding the agreements and provisions contained
in the preceding sentence, any of the Trustee, a Noteholder or any other beneficiary either (i) asserts an interest in, claim to, or benefit from Other Assets, or (ii) is deemed to have any such interest, claim to, or benefit in or from
Other Assets, whether by operation of law, legal process, pursuant to applicable provisions of insolvency laws or otherwise (including by virtue of Section 1111(b) of the Bankruptcy Code or any successor provision having similar effect under
the Bankruptcy Code), then the Trustee, such Noteholder or such beneficiary, as applicable, further acknowledges and agrees that any such interest in, claim to or benefit from such Other Assets is and will be expressly subordinated to the
indefeasible payment in full of such Other Assets under the terms of the relevant documents relating to the securitization or conveyance of such Other Assets to such Persons as are entitled to be paid from, entitled to the benefits of, or otherwise
secured by such Other Assets (whether or not any such entitlement or security interest is legally perfected or otherwise entitled to a priority of distributions or application under applicable law, including insolvency laws, and whether or not
asserted against the Depositor), including the payment of post-petition interest on such other obligations and liabilities. This subordination agreement will be deemed a subordination agreement within the meaning of Section 510(a) of the
Bankruptcy Code. Each of the Trustee (in its individual capacity and as the Trustee), by entering into or accepting this agreement, any Noteholder and any beneficiary, by accepting the benefits of this Indenture, hereby further acknowledges and
agrees that no adequate remedy at law exists for a breach of this Section and the terms of this Section may be enforced 

  

 90 








 
by an action for specific performance. The provisions of this Section will be for the third party benefit of those entitled to rely thereon and will survive
the termination of this Indenture. 
 ARTICLE X 
 PAYMENT AND CANCELLATION OF NOTES 
 AND SATISFACTION OF INDENTURE 
 Section 10.01 Trust Irrevocable. The trust created by the terms and provisions of this Indenture is irrevocable until the indebtedness
secured hereby (the Notes and interest thereon) and all Issuer Derivative Payments are fully paid or provision made for its payment as provided in this Article. 
 Section 10.02 Satisfaction of Indenture. 
 (a) If the Issuer shall pay, or cause
to be paid, or there shall otherwise be paid (i) to the Registered Owners of the Notes, the principal of and interest on the Notes, at the times and in the manner stipulated in this Indenture; and (ii) to each Counterparty, all Issuer
Derivative Payments then due, then the pledge of the Trust Estate, and all covenants, agreements and other obligations of the Issuer to the Registered Owners of Notes shall thereupon cease, terminate and become void and be discharged and satisfied.
In such event, the Trustee shall execute and deliver to the Issuer all such instruments as may be desirable to evidence such discharge and satisfaction, and the Trustee shall pay over or deliver all money held by it under this Indenture to the party
entitled to receive the same under this Indenture. If the Issuer shall pay or cause to be paid, or there shall otherwise be paid, to the Registered Owners of any Outstanding Notes the principal of and interest on such Notes and to each Counterparty
all Issuer Derivative Payments then due, at the times and in the manner stipulated in this Indenture and in the respective Derivative Product, such Notes and each Counterparty shall cease to be entitled to any lien, benefit or security under this
Indenture, and all covenants, agreements and obligations of the Issuer to the Registered Owners thereof and each Counterparty shall thereupon cease, terminate and become void and be discharged and satisfied. 
 (b) Notes or interest installments shall be deemed to have been paid within the meaning of Section 10.02(a) hereof if money for the
payment thereof has been set aside and is being held in trust by the Trustee at the Note Final Maturity Date or earlier prepayment date thereof. Any Outstanding Note shall, prior to the Note Final Maturity Date or earlier prepayment thereof, be
deemed to have been paid within the meaning and with the effect expressed in Section 10.02(a) hereof if (i) such Note is to be prepaid on any date prior to its Note Final Maturity Date and (ii) the Issuer shall have given notice of
prepayment as provided herein on said date, there shall have been deposited with the Trustee either money (fully insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or fully collateralized by Governmental Obligations) in an amount which shall be
sufficient, or Governmental Obligations (including any Governmental Obligations issued or held in book-entry form on the books of the Department of Treasury of the United States of America) the principal of and the interest on which when due will
provide money which, together with the money, if any, deposited with the Trustee at the same time, shall be 

  

 91 








 
sufficient, to pay when due the principal of and interest to become due on such Note on and prior to the prepayment date or Note Final Maturity Date thereof,
as the case may be. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, however, no such deposit shall have the effect specified in this subsection (b) if made during the existence of an Event of Default, unless made with respect to all of the
Notes then Outstanding. Neither Governmental Obligations nor money deposited with the Trustee pursuant to this subsection (b) nor principal or interest payments on any such Governmental Obligations shall be withdrawn or used for any purpose
other than, and shall be held irrevocably in trust in an escrow account for, the payment of the principal of and interest on such Notes. Any cash received from such principal of and interest on such Governmental Obligations deposited with the
Trustee, if not needed for such purpose, shall, to the extent practicable, be reinvested in Governmental Obligations maturing at times and in amounts sufficient to pay when due the principal of and interest on such Notes on and prior to such
prepayment date or Note Final Maturity Date thereof, as the case may be, and interest earned from such reinvestments shall be paid over to the Issuer, as received by the Trustee, free and clear of any trust, lien or pledge. Any payment for
Governmental Obligations purchased for the purpose of reinvesting cash as aforesaid shall be made only against delivery of such Governmental Obligations. For the purposes of this Section, “Governmental Obligations” shall mean and include
only non-callable direct obligations of the Department of the Treasury of the United States of America or portions thereof (including interest or principal portions thereof), and such Governmental Obligations shall be of such amounts, maturities and
interest payment dates and bear such interest as will, without further investment or reinvestment of either the principal amount thereof or the interest earnings therefrom, be sufficient to make the payments required herein, and which obligations
have been deposited in an escrow account which is irrevocably pledged as security for the Notes. Such term shall not include mutual funds and unit investment trusts. 
 (c) Any Issuer Derivative Payments are deemed to have been paid and the applicable Derivative Product terminated when payment of all
Issuer Derivative Payments due and payable to each Counterparty under its respective Derivative Product have been made or duly provided for to the satisfaction of each Counterparty and the respective Derivative Product has been terminated.

 (d) In no event shall the Trustee deliver over to the Issuer any Financed Eligible Loans originated under the Higher
Education Act unless the Issuer is an Eligible Lender, if the Higher Education Act or Regulations then in effect require the owner or holder of such Financed Eligible Loans to be an Eligible Lender. 
 (e) The provisions of this Section are applicable to the Notes and the Issuer Derivative Payments. 
 Section 10.03 Optional Purchase of All Financed Eligible Loans. The Administrator shall certify to and notify the Depositor, or any assignee
of its rights hereunder, and the Trustee in writing, within 15 days after the last Business Day of each Collection Period in which the then outstanding Pool Balance is 12% or less of the Initial Pool Balance, of the percentage that the then
outstanding Pool Balance bears to the Initial Pool Balance. The Administrator or its 

  

 92 








 
assignee (provided that such assignee is a Goal Eligible Purchaser) shall have the option to purchase all of the Financed Eligible Loans on the date that is
the tenth (10th) Business Day preceding the Quarterly Distribution Date next succeeding the Collection Period during which the then outstanding Pool Balance is first reduced to 10% or less of the Initial Pool Balance (the “Optional
Purchase Date”). To exercise the option described in this Section, the Administrator or its assignee shall deposit in the Collection Fund on the Optional Purchase Date, an amount equal to the aggregate Purchase Amount for the Financed
Eligible Loans and the related rights with respect thereto, plus the appraised value of any such other property held in the Trust Estate other than the Funds and Accounts, such value to be determined by an appraiser mutually agreed upon by the
Administrator or its assignee and the Trustee; provided, however, that the Administrator or its assignee may not effect such purchase if such aggregate Purchase Amounts and the appraised value of such other property do not equal or exceed the
Minimum Purchase Amount, less any amounts on deposit in the Funds and Accounts. The amount deposited by the Administrator or its designee on the Optional Purchase Date, together with all amounts on deposit in the Funds and Accounts, shall be applied
in accordance with Section 6.02. 
 Section 10.04 Auction of Financed Eligible Loans. If the Administrator, or any assignee
of its rights under Section 10.03 hereof, does not exercise its option to purchase Financed Eligible Loans pursuant to Section 10.03 hereof, the Trustee (or its designated agent) shall, promptly after the Business Day next succeeding the
Optional Purchase Date, offer for sale Financed Eligible Loans in an amount sufficient to redeem all Notes Outstanding on such Quarterly Distribution Date, and any such sale shall be consummated on or before such Quarterly Distribution Date (the
“Trust Auction Date”). Goal Financial or any Affiliate of Goal Financial, may bid to purchase the Financed Eligible Loans only to the extent such bidding party is a Goal Eligible Purchaser. The Trustee shall provide written notice
to the Administrator of any such offer for sale at least five Business Days in advance of the Trust Auction Date. If at least two independent bids are received, the Trustee (or its designated agent) shall solicit and resolicit new bids from all
participating bidders until only one bid remains or the remaining bidders decline to resubmit bids. The Trustee shall accept the highest of the remaining bids if it is equal to or in excess of both (i) the Minimum Purchase Amount, less any
amounts on deposit in the Funds and Accounts and (ii) the fair market value of such Financed Eligible Loans as of the end of the Collection Period immediately preceding the Trust Auction Date. If at least two bids are not received or the
highest bid after the resolicitation process is completed is not equal to or in excess of the higher of the amounts described in the preceding sentences, the Trustee shall not consummate such sale. The Trustee may consult, and, at the direction of
the Depositor, shall consult, with a financial advisor, including an underwriter of the Notes or the Administrator, to determine if the fair market value of the Financed Eligible Loans has been offered. The proceeds of any such sale, together with
all amounts on deposit in the Funds and Accounts, shall be deposited to the Collection Fund and applied in accordance with Section 6.02. Unless requested by the Administrator, if the sale is not completed, the Trustee may, but will not be
obligated to, solicit bids for sale of the Financed Eligible Loans with respect to future Quarterly Distribution Dates upon terms similar to those described above. The Trustee shall be obligated to make such solicitations, however, if requested to
do so by the Administrator. Notice of the prepayment of any Obligations resulting from a purchase of the Financed Eligible Loans on the Optional Purchase Date or the auction of the Financed Eligible Loans on the Trust Auction Date, shall be given by
the Trustee to the Registered Owners by first-class mail within five Business Days of such Optional Purchase Date or Trust Auction Date. 
  

 93 








 Section 10.05 Cancellation of Paid Notes. Any Notes which have been paid or purchased by the
Issuer, mutilated Notes replaced by new Notes, and any temporary Note for which definitive Notes have been delivered shall (unless otherwise directed by the Issuer by Issuer Order) forthwith be cancelled by the Trustee and, except for temporary
Notes, returned to the Issuer. 
  

 94 








 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Issuer has caused this Indenture to be executed in its organizational name and
behalf by its Delaware Trustee, and the Trustee, to evidence its acceptance of the trusts hereby created, has caused this Indenture to be executed in its organizational name and behalf, all in multiple counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an
original, and the Issuer and the Trustee have caused this Indenture to be dated as of the date herein above first shown.

 EXHIBIT A 
 ELIGIBLE LOAN ACQUISITION CERTIFICATE 
 This Eligible Loan Acquisition Certificate is submitted
pursuant to the provisions of Section 5.02 of the Indenture of Trust, dated as of June 7, 2007, as amended (the “Indenture”), between Goal Capital Funding Trust 2007-1 (the “Issuer”) and The Bank of New
York Trust Company, N.A., as Trustee and as Eligible Lender Trustee. All capitalized terms used in this Certificate and not otherwise defined herein shall have the same meanings given to such terms in the Indenture. In your capacity as Trustee, you
are hereby authorized and requested to disburse to              (the “Seller”) the sum of
$             (or, in the case of an exchange, the Eligible Loans listed in Exhibit A hereto) for the acquisition of Eligible Loans. With respect to the Eligible Loans so to be
acquired, the Issuer hereby certifies as follows: 
 1. The Eligible Loans to be acquired are those specified in Schedule A attached hereto
(the “Acquired Eligible Loans”). The remaining unpaid principal amount of each Acquired Eligible Loan is as shown on such Schedule A. 
 2. The amount to be disbursed pursuant to this Certificate does not exceed the amount permitted by Section 5.02 of the Indenture, plus accrued interest and any applicable premium. 
 3. Each Acquired Eligible Loan is an Eligible Loan authorized so to be acquired by the Indenture. 
 4. The following items have been received and are being retained, on your behalf, by the Issuer, a Servicer or a Subservicer: 
 (a) a copy of the Student Loan Purchase Agreement(s) between the Issuer and the Eligible Lender Trustee with respect to the Acquired
Eligible Loans (original copy maintained on file with the Issuer on behalf of the Trustee); 
 (b) with respect to each
Insured Loan included among the Acquired Eligible Loans, the Certificate of Insurance relating thereto; 
 (c) with respect to
each Guaranteed Loan included among the Acquired Eligible Loans, a certified copy of the Guarantee Agreement relating thereto; 
 (d) an opinion of counsel to the Issuer specifying each action necessary to perfect a security interest in all Eligible Loans to be acquired by the Issuer pursuant to the Student Loan Purchase Agreements in favor of the Trustee in the
manner provided for by the provisions of 20 U.S.C. § 1087-2(d)(3) or 20 U.S.C. § 1082(m)(1)(D)(iv), as applicable, (you are authorized to rely on the advice of a single blanket opinion of counsel to the Issuer until such time as the Issuer
shall provide any amended opinion to you); and 
 (e) instruments duly assigning the Acquired Eligible Loans to the Trustee.

  

 A-1 








 5. The Issuer is not, on the date hereof, in default under the Indenture or in the performance of any of
its covenants and agreements made in the Student Loan Purchase Agreement(s) relating to the Acquired Eligible Loans, and, to the best knowledge of the Issuer, the Eligible Lender Trustee is not in default under the Student Loan Purchase Agreement
applicable to the Acquired Eligible Loans. The Issuer is not aware of any default existing on the date hereof under any of the other documents referred to in paragraph 4 hereof, nor of any circumstances which would reasonably prevent reliance upon
the opinion of counsel referred to in paragraph 4(d) hereof. 
 6. All of the conditions specified in the Student Loan Purchase Agreement(s)
applicable to the Acquired Eligible Loans and the Indenture for the acquisition of the Acquired Eligible Loans and the disbursement hereby authorized and requested have been satisfied; provided that the Issuer may waive any requirement of an opinion
of counsel in connection with such acquisition. 
 7. If a Financed Eligible Loan is being sold in exchange for an Acquired Eligible Loan,
the final expected maturity date of such Acquired Eligible Loan shall be substantially similar to that of the Financed Eligible Loan being sold and such sale and exchange shall not adversely affect the ability of the Issuer to make timely principal
and interest payments on its Obligations. 
 8. With respect to all Acquired Eligible Loans which are Insured, Insurance is in effect with
respect thereto, and with respect to all Acquired Eligible Loans which are Guaranteed, the Guarantee Agreement is in effect with respect thereto. 
 9. The Issuer is not in default in the performance of any of its covenants and agreements made in any Contract of Insurance or the Guarantee Agreement applicable to the Acquired Eligible Loans. 
 10. The proposed use of moneys in the Prefunding Account or the Add-On Consolidation Loan Account of the Acquisition Fund, as applicable, is in
compliance with the provisions of the Indenture. 
 11. The undersigned is authorized to sign and submit this Certificate on behalf of the
Issuer. 
 12. Eligible Loans are being acquired at a price which permits the results of the cash flow analyses provided to the Rating
Agencies on or about the Date of Issuance and as revised/amended to be sustained.

 Goal Capital Funding Trust 2007-1, a statutory trust organized and existing under the laws of the
State of Delaware (herein referred to as the “Issuer”), for value received, hereby promises to pay to CEDE & CO., or registered assigns, on each Quarterly Distribution Date the principal sum equal to the portion of any
payments of principal owing to the Class [•] Notes allocable to this Note for such Quarterly Distribution Date, as described in the Indenture of Trust, dated as of June 7, 2007 (the “Indenture”), between the Issuer (by
Wilmington Trust Company, in its capacity as Delaware Trustee) and The Bank of New York Trust Company, N.A., a national banking association organized under the laws of the United States, as eligible lender trustee and indenture trustee (the
“Trustee”) (capitalized terms used but not defined herein being defined in Article I of the Indenture, which also contains rules as to usage that shall be applicable herein); provided, however, that the entire unpaid principal
amount of this Note shall be due and payable on the Maturity Date specified above (the “Class [•] Maturity Date”). 
  

 B-1-1 








 The Issuer shall pay interest on this Note at the rate per annum equal to the Class [•] Rate on each
Quarterly Distribution Date until the principal of this Note is paid or made available for payment, on the principal amount of this Note outstanding on the preceding Quarterly Distribution Date or the Date of Issuance in the case of the first
Quarterly Distribution Date (after giving effect to all payments of principal made on the preceding Quarterly Distribution Date), subject to certain limitations contained in the Indenture. The “Class [•] Rate” for each Interest
Accrual Period shall be equal to the applicable Three-Month LIBOR, plus [            ]%; provided that the Class [•] Rate for the first Interest Accrual Period shall be
determined by reference to the formula described in the Indenture. [If, however, a Junior Subordinate Interest Trigger Event (as defined in the Indenture) is in effect on any Quarterly Distribution Date, interest accrued on the Class C-1 Notes will
constitute a Carry-Over Amount and will be paid only to the extent of available funds in accordance with Section 5.04(c) of the Indenture] Interest on this Note shall accrue from and including the preceding Quarterly Distribution Date (or, in
the case of the first Interest Accrual Period, the Date of Issuance) to but excluding the following Quarterly Distribution Date (each an “Interest Accrual Period”). Interest shall be calculated on the basis of the actual number of
days elapsed in each Interest Accrual Period divided by 360 and rounding the resultant figure to the fifth decimal point. Such principal of and interest on this Note shall be paid in the manner specified on the reverse hereof. 
 The principal of and interest on this Note are payable in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender
for payment of public and private debts. All payments made by the Issuer with respect to this Note shall be applied first to interest due and payable on this Note as provided above and then to the unpaid principal of this Note. 
 Reference is made to the further provisions of this Note set forth on the reverse hereof, which shall have the same effect as though fully set forth on
the face of this Note. 
 Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by the Trustee whose name appears below by manual
signature, this Note shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Indenture referred to on the reverse hereof, or be valid or obligatory for any purpose.

 This Note is one of a duly authorized issuance of Notes of the Issuer (the “Notes”), including
its Student Loan Asset-Backed Notes, Senior Class A-1, Senior Class A-2, Senior Class A-3, Senior Class A-4, Senior Class A-5, (collectively, the “Class A Notes”), Subordinate Class B-1 (the “Class
B-1 Notes”) and Junior Subordinate Class C (the “Class C-1 Notes”), which are issued under and secured by the Indenture, to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of
the respective rights and obligations thereunder of the Issuer, the Trustee and the Registered Owners. The Notes are subject to all terms of the Indenture. 
 The Indenture provides that the Issuer may enter into a derivative product (a “Derivative Product”) between the Issuer and a derivative provider (a “Counterparty”), as originally
executed and as amended or supplemented, or other interest rate hedge agreement between the Issuer and a Counterparty, as originally executed and as amended or supplemented. Payments due to a Counterparty from the Issuer pursuant to the applicable
Derivative Product are referred to herein as “Issuer Derivative Payments,” and are paid on a parity with interest on the Class A Notes. 
 The Notes are and will be secured by the Trust Estate pledged as security therefor as provided in the Indenture. The Class A Notes and any Derivative Products are senior to the Class B-1 Notes as and to the
extent provided in the Indenture. The Class B-1 Notes are senior to the Class C-1 Notes as and to the extent provided in the Indenture. The Class A Notes are, except for certain Termination Payments that are not Priority Termination Payments,
issued on a parity with any Derivative Products entered into by the Issuer with a Counterparty, pursuant to which the Issuer will, from time to time, owe Issuer Derivative Payments, and will, from time to time, be owed Counterparty Payments.

 Principal of the Class [•] Notes shall be payable on each Quarterly Distribution Date in the amount specified in Section 5.04(c)
of the Indenture for such Quarterly Distribution Date. “Quarterly Distribution Date” means the twenty-fifth (25th) day of each March, June, September and December, commencing in September of 2007, or, if any such date is not a
Business Day, the immediately succeeding Business Day. 
 As described on the face hereof, the entire unpaid principal amount of this Note
shall be due and payable on the Class [•] Maturity Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the entire unpaid principal amount of the Notes shall be due and payable on the date on which (a) an Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing and (b) either the Trustee or the Registered Owners of Obligations representing not less than a majority of the Outstanding Amount of the Highest Priority Obligations shall have declared the Notes to be immediately due and payable in
the manner provided in the Indenture. 
 The Notes are subject to redemption from the proceeds of a sale of Financed Eligible Loans in
accordance with Section 10.03 or 10.04 of the Indenture on any Quarterly Distribution Date on or after the Quarterly Distribution Date next succeeding the Collection Period during which the then outstanding Pool Balance is first reduced to 10%
or less of the Initial Pool Balance (all as defined in the Indenture), in whole only, at a redemption price equal to the principal amount thereof being redeemed, plus accrued interest, if any, due and payable on the Notes to such Quarterly
Distribution Date. 
  

 B-1-4 








 The LIBOR Rate Notes called for redemption 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. Preferably five, but not less than two Business Days prior to each Quarterly Distribution Date on which the LIBOR Rate Notes are to be redeemed, the
Trustee shall cause notice of such redemption to be given by emailing, faxing or mailing a copy of the notice by first-class mail to the Administrator and Registered Owners of the LIBOR Rate Notes, at their address as the same shall last appear upon
the registration books on such date; provided, however that failure to give such notice, or defect therein, shall not affect the validity of any proceedings for the reduction or redemption of the LIBOR Rate Notes. 
 Payments of interest on this Note on each Quarterly Distribution Date, together with the installment of principal, if any, to the extent not in full
payment of this Note, shall be paid to the Person in whose name such Note is registered on the Record Date by check mailed first-class, postage prepaid to such Person’s address as it appears on the records of the Trustee on such Record Date,
except that, unless definitive Notes have been issued pursuant to the Indenture, with respect to Notes registered on the Record Date in the name of the nominee of the Clearing Agency (initially, such nominee to be Cede & Co.), payment shall
be made by wire transfer in immediately available funds to the account designated by such nominee. If funds are expected to be available, as provided in the Indenture, for payment in full of the then remaining unpaid principal amount of this Note on
a Quarterly Distribution Date, then the Trustee shall notify the Person in whose name a Note is registered at the close of business on the Record Date preceding the Quarterly Distribution Date on which the Issuer expects that the final installment
of principal of and interest on such Note will be paid. Such notice shall be mailed or transmitted by facsimile prior to such final Quarterly Distribution Date and shall specify that such final installment will be payable only upon presentation and
surrender of such Note and shall specify the place where such Note may be presented and surrendered for payment of such installment. 
 As
provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations set forth therein, the transfer of this Note may be registered upon the records of the Trustee upon surrender for transfer of this Note at the Principal Office of the Trustee, duly
endorsed for transfer or accompanied by an assignment duly executed by the Registered Owner or his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon the Issuer shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in the name of the
transferee or transferees a new fully registered Note or Notes of the same interest rate and for a like class and aggregate principal amount of the same maturity. 
 As to any Note, the person in whose name the same shall be registered shall be deemed and regarded as the absolute owner thereof for all purposes, and payment of either principal or interest on any fully registered
Note shall be made only to or upon the written order of the Registered Owner thereof or his legal representative but such registration may be changed as provided in the Indenture. All such payments shall be valid and effectual to satisfy and
discharge the liability upon such Note to the extent of the sum or sums paid. 
 Each Registered Owner and each transferee of a Note shall be
deemed to represent and warrant that either (a) it is not acquiring the Note directly or indirectly for, or on behalf of, (i) an employee benefit plan (as defined in Section 3(3) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974,
as amended (“ERISA”)), which is subject to the provisions of Title I of ERISA, (ii) a plan (as defined in Section 4975(e)(1) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the 

  

 B-1-5 








 
“Code”)), which is subject to Section 4975 of the Code (iii) a governmental plan, non-U.S. plan, or church plan that is subject to any
applicable law that is substantially similar to the fiduciary responsibility provisions of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code (“Similar Law”) or (iv) any entity whose underlying assets include plan assets by reason of an employee
benefit plan’s or a plan’s investment in the entity; or (b) the acquisition and holding of the Notes will not result in a nonexempt prohibited transaction under Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code or a nonexempt
violation of any Similar Law. 
 Each Registered Owner and each transferee of a Note shall be deemed to agree to treat its Note for federal,
state and local income and franchise tax purposes as indebtedness. 
 The Trustee shall require the payment by any Registered Owner
requesting exchange or transfer of any tax or other governmental charge required to be paid with respect to such exchange or transfer. The applicant for any such transfer or exchange may be required to pay all taxes and governmental charges in
connection with such transfer or exchange, other than exchanges pursuant to the Indenture. 
 The term “Issuer” as used in this
Note includes any successor to the Issuer under the Indenture. 
 The Issuer is permitted by the Indenture, under certain circumstances, to
merge or consolidate, subject to the rights of the Trustee and the Registered Owners under the Indenture. 
 The Notes are issuable only in
registered form in denominations as provided in the Indenture, subject to certain limitations therein set forth. 
 This Note shall be
construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without reference to its conflict of law provisions, and the obligations, rights and remedies of the parties hereunder and thereunder shall be determined in accordance with such laws.

 No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Note or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Issuer,
which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and interest on this Note at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed.

 This Note is one of a duly authorized issuance of Notes of the Issuer (the “Notes”), including
its Student Loan Asset-Backed Notes, Senior Class A-1, Senior Class A-2, Senior Class A-3, Senior Class A-4, Senior Class A-5 (collectively, the “Class A Notes”), Subordinate Class B-1 (the “Class

the respective rights and obligations thereunder of the Issuer, the Trustee and the Registered Owners. The Notes are subject to all terms of the Indenture. 
 The Indenture provides that the Issuer may enter into a derivative product (a “Derivative Product”) between the Issuer and a derivative provider (a “Counterparty”), as originally executed and as
amended or supplemented, or other interest rate hedge agreement between the Issuer and a Counterparty, as originally executed and as amended or supplemented. Payments due to a Counterparty from the Issuer pursuant to the applicable Derivative
Product are referred to herein as “Issuer Derivative Payments,” and are paid on a parity with interest on the Class A Notes. 
 The Notes are and will be secured by the Trust Estate pledged as security therefor as provided in the Indenture. The Class A Notes and any Derivative Products are senior to the Class B-1 Notes as and to the extent provided in the
Indenture. The Class B-1 Notes are senior to the Class C-1 Notes as and to the extent provided in the Indenture. The Class A Notes are, except for certain Termination Payments that are not Priority Termination Payments, issued on a parity with
any Derivative Products entered into by the Issuer with a Counterparty, pursuant to which the Issuer will, from time to time, owe Issuer Derivative Payments, and will, from time to time, be owed Counterparty Payments. 
 Principal of the Class B-1 Notes shall be payable on each Auction Rate Distribution Date in the amount specified in Sections 5.04(c) and (d) of the
Indenture. “Auction Rate Distribution Date” means for the Class B-1 Notes, the Business Day immediately following the Initial Period and each related Auction Period thereafter; provided, however, that if the duration of such Auction Period
exceeds 90 days, then the Class B-1 Notes will have Auction Rate Distribution Dates on (i) the 25th of each March, June, September and December occurring during such Auction Period (or, if such day is not a Business Day, the immediately
succeeding Business Day), and (ii) the first Business Day immediately following the end of such Auction Period. 
 As described on the
face hereof, the entire unpaid principal amount of this Note shall be due and payable on the Class B-1 Maturity Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the entire unpaid principal amount of the Notes shall be due and payable on the date on which
(a) an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and (b) either the Trustee or the Registered Owners of Obligations representing not less than a majority of the Outstanding Amount of the Highest Priority Obligations shall have
declared the Notes to be immediately due and payable in the manner provided in the Indenture. 
 The Notes are subject to redemption from the
proceeds of a sale of Financed Eligible Loans in accordance with Section 10.03 or 10.04 of the Indenture on any Quarterly Distribution Date on or after the Quarterly Distribution Date next succeeding the Collection Period during which the then
outstanding Pool Balance is first reduced 10% or less of the Initial Pool Balance (all as defined in the Indenture), in whole only, at a redemption price equal to the principal 

  

 B-2-4 








 
amount thereof being redeemed, plus accrued interest, if any, due and payable on the Notes to such Quarterly Distribution Date. 
 All Auction Rate Notes called for redemption 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. Not less than 10 days prior to the Auction Rate Distribution Date on which the Auction Rate Notes are to be redeemed, the Trustee shall cause notices of such redemption to be given by
emailing, faxing or mailing a copy of the notice by first-class mail to the Administrator and registered owners of the Auction Rate Notes, at their address as the same shall last appear upon the registration books on such date; provided, however,
that failure to give such notice, or any defect therein, shall not affect the validity of any proceedings for the reduction or redemption of the Auction Rate Notes. 
 Interest on the Class B-1 Notes shall be payable on each Auction Rate Distribution Date on the principal amount outstanding of the Class B-1 Notes until the principal amount thereof is paid in full, at a rate per
annum equal to the Class B-1 Rate. The “Class B-1 Rate” for each Interest Accrual Period, other than the first Interest Accrual Period, shall be equal to the Auction Note Interest Rate for the Class B-1 Notes for such Interest Accrual
Period, and, for the first Interest Accrual Period, the Initial Rate for such class. The Auction Note Interest Rate is determined for each Interest Accrual Period in accordance with the Auction Procedures described in Appendix B to the Indenture.
The Initial Rate for the Class B-1 Notes is the rate selected by the Underwriters and specified in the Indenture for such class of Notes. Under certain circumstances, the Class B-1 Notes may be entitled to payment of certain Carry-Over Amounts for
such class, as described in Appendix B to the Indenture. Payment of such Carry-Over Amounts is subordinated to the payment of principal and interest on the Notes, and to payment of other amounts owed by the Issuer, as described in the Indenture.

 Payments of interest on this Note on each Auction Rate Distribution Date, together with the installment of principal, if any, to the
extent not in full payment of this Note, shall be paid to the Person in whose name such Note is registered on the Record Date by check mailed first-class, postage prepaid to such Person’s address as it appears on the records of the Trustee on
such Record Date, except that, unless definitive Notes have been issued pursuant to the Indenture, with respect to Notes registered on the Record Date in the name of the nominee of the Clearing Agency (initially, such nominee to be Cede &
Co.), payment shall be made by wire transfer in immediately available funds to the account designated by such nominee. If funds are expected to be available, as provided in the Indenture, for payment in full of the then remaining unpaid principal
amount of this Note on a Auction Rate Distribution Date, then the Trustee shall notify the Person in whose name a Note is registered at the close of business on the Record Date preceding the Auction Rate Distribution Date on which the Issuer expects
that the final installment of principal of and interest on such Note will be paid. Such notice shall be mailed or transmitted by facsimile prior to such final Auction Rate Distribution Date and shall specify that such final installment will be
payable only upon presentation and surrender of such Note and shall specify the place where such Note may be presented and surrendered for payment of such installment. 
 As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations set forth therein, the transfer of this Note may be registered upon the records of the Trustee upon surrender for

transfer of this Note at the Principal Office of the Trustee, duly endorsed for transfer or accompanied by an assignment duly executed by the Registered
Owner or his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon the Issuer shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in the name of the transferee or transferees a new fully registered Note or Notes of the same interest rate and
for a like class and aggregate principal amount of the same maturity. 
 As to any Note, the person in whose name the same shall be

legal representative but such registration may be changed as provided in the Indenture. All such payments shall be valid and effectual to satisfy and discharge the liability upon such Note to the extent of the sum or sums paid. 
 Each Registered Owner and each transferee of a Note shall be deemed to represent and warrant that either (a) it is not acquiring the Note directly
or indirectly for, or on behalf of, (i) an employee benefit plan (as defined in Section 3(3) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”)), which is subject to the provisions of Title I of ERISA,
(ii) a plan (as defined in Section 4975(e)(1) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”)), which is not subject to Section 4975 of the Code (iii) a governmental plan, non-U.S. plan, or church plan
that is subject to any applicable law that is substantially similar to the fiduciary responsibility provisions of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code (“Similar Law”) or (iv) any entity whose underlying assets include plan assets by
reason of an employee benefit plan’s or a plan’s investment in the entity; or (b) the acquisition and holding of the Notes will not result in a nonexempt prohibited transaction under Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of
the Code or a nonexempt violation of any Similar Law. 
 Each Registered Owner and each transferee of a Note shall be deemed to agree to
treat its Note for federal, state and local income and franchise tax purposes as indebtedness. 
 The Trustee shall require the payment by
any Registered Owner requesting exchange or transfer of any tax or other governmental charge required to be paid with respect to such exchange or transfer. The applicant for any such transfer or exchange may be required to pay all taxes and
governmental charges in connection with such transfer or exchange, other than exchanges pursuant to the Indenture.

 ANNEX A 
 SECURITIZATION COOPERATION ANNEX 
 This Annex forms a part of the Indenture of Trust dated as of June 7, 2007
(the “Indenture”) between Goal Capital Funding Trust 2007-1, as issuer (the “Issuer”), and The Bank of New York Trust Company, N.A. (“BNYTC”), as trustee and as eligible lender trustee (referred to herein
in both such capacities as the “Trustee”). Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Annex shall have the meanings assigned to them in Exhibit A to this Annex and, if not defined therein, in the Indenture. 
 1. Trustee Duties. 
 (a) As
soon as available, but in no event later than March 15 of each calendar year in which the Issuer is required to file reports under the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission, beginning with March 15, 2008, the Trustee
shall deliver to the Issuer a report regarding its assessment of compliance with the relevant Servicing Criteria applicable to the Trustee, as identified on Exhibit B to this Annex, as of and for the period ending the end of the fiscal year ending
no later than December 31 of the year prior to the year of delivery of the report. Each such report shall include (a) a statement of the party’s responsibility for assessing compliance with the Servicing Criteria applicable to such
party, (b) a statement that such party used the criteria identified in Item 1122(d) of Regulation AB (§ 229.1122(d)) to assess compliance with the applicable Servicing Criteria, (c) disclosure of any material instance of
noncompliance identified by such party and (d) a statement that a registered public accounting firm has issued an attestation report on such party’s assessment of compliance with the applicable Servicing Criteria, which report shall be
delivered by the Trustee. In addition, on or before March 15th of each calendar year in which the Issuer is required to file reports in accordance with the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission, beginning with
March 15, 2008, the Trustee shall furnish or cause to be furnished to the Issuer an assessment of compliance of any Subservicer or Subcontractor with respect to the Trustee. 
 (b) On or before March 15th of each calendar year for so long as the Issuer is subject to Exchange Act reporting requirements,
beginning with March 15, 2008, the Trustee shall cause a firm of independent public accountants (who may also render other services to Trustee), which is a member of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, to furnish to the
Issuer a report to the effect that such firm attests to, and reports on, the assessment made by such asserting party pursuant to Section 1(a) of this Annex, which report shall be made in accordance with standards for attestation engagements
issued or adopted by the PCAOB. In addition, on or before March 15th of each calendar year in which the Issuer is required to file reports with respect to the Trust Estate in accordance with the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations of the
Commission, beginning with March 15, 2008, the Trustee shall furnish to the Issuer an accountant’s attestation of any Subservicer or Subcontractor with respect to the Trustee. 
  

 Annex A-1 








 (c) The Trustee shall give written notice to the Issuer of the appointment of any
Subcontractor by it and a written description (in form and substance satisfactory to the Issuer) of the role and function of each Subcontractor utilized by the Trustee, specifying (A) the identity of each such Subcontractor and (B) which

 ARTICLE II 
 TERMS AND ISSUANCE

 Section 2.01. Auction Rate And Carry Over Amounts. During the Initial Period, the Auction Rate Notes shall bear interest
at the Initial Rate. Thereafter, and except with respect to an Auction Period Adjustment, the Auction Rate Notes shall bear interest at an Auction Note Interest Rate based on a 28-day Auction Period with respect to the Class B Auction Rate Notes, as
determined pursuant to this Section 2.01 and Section 2.02 of this Appendix B. For the Auction Rate Notes during the Initial Period and each Auction Period thereafter, interest at the applicable Auction Note 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, and rounded to the fifth decimal point. 
 The Auction Note Interest Rate to be borne by the Auction Rate Notes 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 for the Auction Rate Notes shall commence on and include the day following the expiration of the immediately preceding Auction Period and terminate on and include the Wednesday (unless such day is not followed by a Business Day, in
which case on the next succeeding day that is followed by a Business Day) of the following fourth week; provided, however, that in the case of the Auction Period that immediately follows the Initial Period for the Auction Rate Notes, such Auction
Period shall commence on the Initial Rate Adjustment Date. The Auction Note Interest Rate for each 

  


					
		 	APPENDIX B-8	 	









 
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 B. By way
of example, if an Auction Period ordinarily would end on a Friday, but the following Monday is not a Business Day, the Auction Period will end on that Monday and the new Auction Period will begin on Tuesday. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, unless otherwise specified in an Issuer Order, if an Auction is scheduled to occur for the next Auction Period on a date
that was reasonably expected to be a Business Day, but such Auction does not occur because such date is later not considered to be a Business Day, the Auction shall nevertheless be deemed to have occurred, and the applicable Auction Note Interest
Rate in effect for the next Auction Period will be the Auction Note Interest Rate in effect for the preceding Auction Period and such Auction Period will generally be 28 days in duration for the Class B Auction Rate Notes, beginning on the calendar
day following the date of the deemed Auction and ending on (and including) the applicable Wednesday (unless such day is not followed by a Business Day, in which case on the next succeeding day that is followed by a Business Day) of the following
fourth week in the case of such Auction Rate Notes. If the preceding Auction Period was other than 28 days in duration for the Auction Rate Notes, the Auction Note Interest Rate for the deemed Auction will instead be the rate of interest determined
by the applicable Broker-Dealer on equivalently rated auction securities with a comparable length of Auction Period. 
 Notwithstanding the
foregoing: 
 (a) If the ownership of an Auction Rate Note is no longer maintained in Book-Entry Form, the Auction Note
Interest Rate on the Auction Rate Notes for any Interest Accrual Period commencing after the delivery of certificates representing Auction Rate Notes pursuant to this Indenture shall equal the Maximum Rate on the Business Day immediately preceding
the first day of such subsequent Interest Accrual Period; or 
 (b) If a Payment Default shall have occurred, the Auction Note
Interest Rate for the Interest Accrual Period commencing on or immediately after such Payment Default, and for each Interest Accrual Period thereafter, to and including the Interest Accrual 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 Accrual Period. 
 In accordance with Section 2.02(a)(iii)(B) and (C) of this Appendix B, the Auction Agent shall promptly give written notice to the 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. The Trustee shall notify the Registered Owners and the Issuer of Auction Rate Notes of the applicable Auction
Note Interest Rate applicable to such Auction Rate Notes for each Auction Period not later than the third Business Day of such Auction Period. Notwithstanding any other provision of an Auction Rate Note or this Indenture and except for the
occurrence of a Payment Default, interest payable on such Auction Rate Note 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. 

 


					
		 	APPENDIX B-9	 	









 If the Auction Rate is greater than the Maximum Rate, then the Auction Note Interest Rate for that
Interest Accrual Period will be the Maximum Rate. If the Auction Note Interest Rate for any Interest Accrual Period is the Maximum Rate, the Trustee shall determine the Carry-Over Amount, if any, with respect to such Auction Rate Notes for such
Interest Accrual Period. Such Carry-Over Amount shall bear interest calculated at a rate equal to One-Month LIBOR (as determined by the Auction Agent, provided the Trustee has received notice of One-Month LIBOR from the Auction Agent, and if the
Trustee shall not have received such notice from the Auction Agent, then as determined by the Trustee) from the Auction Rate Distribution Date for the Interest Accrual 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 Indenture and this Appendix B, 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 Note by the Trustee during such Interest Accrual Period in sufficient time for the Trustee to give notice to each Registered Owner of such Carry-Over Amount as required in the next succeeding sentence. Not less than four days before the Auction
Rate Distribution Date for an Interest Accrual Period with respect to which such Carry-Over Amount has been calculated by the Trustee, the Trustee shall give written notice to each Registered Owner, the Auction Agent and the Issuer of the Carry-Over
Amount applicable to each Registered Owner’s Auction Rate Note, which written notice may accompany the payment of interest by check made to each such Registered Owner on such Auction Rate Distribution Date or otherwise shall be mailed on such
Auction Rate Distribution Date by first-class mail, postage prepaid, to each such Registered Owner at such Registered Owner’s address as it appears on the registration records maintained by the Trustee, as registrar (or a successor registrar).
In addition to such Carry-Over Amount, such notice shall state, that, unless and until an Auction Rate Note has been redeemed (other than by optional redemption), after which redemption all accrued Carry-Over Amounts (and all accrued interest
thereon) that remain unpaid shall be cancelled and no Carry-Over Amount (or related accrued interest) shall be paid with respect to any redeemed Auction Rate Note, (a) the Carry-Over Amount (and interest accrued thereon calculated at a rate
equal to One-Month LIBOR) shall be paid by the Trustee from the Collection Account on an Auction Rate Note on the earlier of (i) the date of defeasance of such Auction Rate Notes and (ii) the first occurring Auction Rate Distribution Date
(or on the date of any optional redemption) if and to the extent that (x) the Eligible Carry-Over Make-Up Amount with respect to such subsequent Interest Accrual Period is greater than zero, and (y) 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 the Auction Rate Notes shall be paid by
the Trustee from the Collection Account on Outstanding Auction Rate Notes on the earlier of (a) the date of defeasance of the Auction Rate Notes and (b) the first occurring Auction Rate Distribution Date if and to the extent that
(i) the Eligible Carry-Over Make-Up Amount with respect to the related Interest Accrual Period is greater than zero and (ii) on such Auction Rate Distribution Date there are sufficient moneys in the Future Distribution Fund to pay the
Eligible Carry-Over Make-Up Amount on such Auction Rate Distribution Date pursuant to Section 5.04(d) of this Indenture. Any Carry-Over Amount (and any interest accrued thereon) on 

  


					
		 	APPENDIX B-10	 	









 
any Auction Rate Note which is due and payable on an Auction Rate Distribution Date, which Auction Rate Note is to be redeemed (other than by optional
redemption) on said Auction Rate Distribution Date, shall be paid to the Registered Owner thereof on said Auction Rate Distribution Date to the extent that moneys are available therefor in accordance with the provisions of this Appendix B; provided,
however, that any Carry-Over Amount (and any interest accrued thereon) which is not yet due and payable on said Auction Rate Distribution Date shall be cancelled with respect to said Auction Rate Note that is to be redeemed (other than by optional
redemption) on said Auction Rate Distribution Date and shall not be paid on any succeeding Auction Rate Distribution 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 Trustee on the earliest of (a) the date of defeasance of any of the Auction Rate Notes or (b) the next occurring Auction
Rate Distribution Date or Dates, as necessary, if and to the extent that the conditions in the second preceding sentence are satisfied. On any Auction Rate Distribution Date on which the Trustee pays only a portion of the Carry-Over Amount (and any
interest accrued thereon) on Auction Rate Notes, the Trustee shall give written notice in the manner set forth in the immediately preceding paragraph to the Registered Owner of such Auction Rate Note receiving such partial payment of the Carry-Over
Amount remaining unpaid on such Auction Rate Note. 
 The Auction Rate Distribution Date or other date on which such Carry-Over Amount (or
any interest accrued thereon) for Auction Rate Notes shall be paid shall be determined by the Trustee in accordance with the provisions of the immediately preceding paragraph, and the 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 such Auction Rate Notes on an Auction Rate Distribution 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, 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 Accrual Period, which Interest Accrual Period
shall be an Auction Period for such Auction Rate Notes, shall be the Maximum 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 Maximum Rate, the Maximum
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 B and written notice of such determination shall be given by such securities dealer
to the Trustee. 
 Section 2.02. Auction Rate. 
 (a) Determining the Auction Rate. By purchasing Auction Rate Notes, whether in an Auction or otherwise, each purchaser of the Auction Rate
Notes, 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 Notes maintained at all
times in Book-Entry Form for the account of its Clearing Agency Participant, which in turn will maintain records of such beneficial 

  


					
		 	APPENDIX B-11	 	









 
ownership, and (z) to authorize such Clearing Agency 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 Notes is maintained in Book-Entry Form by the
Clearing Agency, an Existing Owner may sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of Auction Rate Notes only pursuant to a Bid or Sell Order placed in an Auction or otherwise sell, transfer or dispose of Auction Rate Notes 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 Clearing Agency 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 for the Auction
Rate Notes on each Auction Date;

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 Notes, 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 Notes, 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 Notes 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.

Notes 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 in such Bid; or 
 b. such principal amount, or a lesser principal amount of Outstanding Auction Rate Notes to be determined as set forth in
Section 2.02(a)(iv)(A)(4) of this Appendix B, 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; or 
 c. such principal amount, or a lesser principal amount of Outstanding Auction Rate Notes to be determined as set forth in
Section 2.02(a)(iv)(B)(3) of this Appendix B, if the rate specified in such Bid 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 B, a Sell Order by an Existing Owner shall constitute an
irrevocable offer to sell: 
 a. The principal amount of Outstanding Auction Rate Notes specified in such Sell Order; or

 b. Such principal amount, or a lesser principal amount of Outstanding Auction Rate Notes set forth in
Section 2.02(a)(iv)(B)(3) of this Appendix B, if Sufficient Bids have not been made. 
 (3) Subject to the provisions of
Section 2.02(a)(ii) of this Appendix B, a Bid by a Potential Owner shall constitute an irrevocable offer to purchase: 
 a. the principal amount of Outstanding Auction Rate Notes 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 Notes set forth in Section 2.02(a)(iv)(A)(5) of
this Appendix B, 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.

 (1) the name of the Bidder placing such Order; 
 (2) the aggregate principal amount of the
Auction Rate Notes that are the subject of such Order;` 
 (3) to the extent that such Bidder is an Existing Owner:

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 Notes 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 Notes owned by such Existing Owner and not subject to an Order submitted to the Auction Agent. 
 (D) Each Broker-Dealer may submit Orders in Auctions for its own account. 
 (E) Neither the Issuer, the 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. 
 (F) 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 Notes owned by such Existing Owner, such Orders shall be considered valid as follows and in the following order of priority: 
  


					
		 	APPENDIX B-14	 	









 (1) All Hold Orders shall be considered valid, but only up to the aggregate principal
amount of Outstanding Auction Rate Notes owned by such Existing Owner, and if the aggregate principal amount of Auction Rate Notes subject to such Hold Orders exceeds the aggregate principal amount of Auction Rate Notes owned by such Existing Owner,
the aggregate principal amount of Auction Rate Notes subject to each such Hold Order shall be reduced pro rata so that the aggregate principal amount of Auction Rate Notes subject to such Hold Order equals the aggregate principal amount of
Outstanding Auction Rate Notes 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 Notes owned by such Existing Owner over the aggregate principal amount of Auction Rate Notes subject to any Hold Order referred to in clause (1) of this paragraph (F);

 b. subject to subclause a. of this clause (2), 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 Notes 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 a. and b. of this clause (2), if more than one Bid with different rates is 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 Notes, if any, subject to Bids not valid under this clause (2) 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 Notes owned by such Existing Owner over the aggregate principal amount of Auction Rate Notes subject to Hold Orders referred to in clause
(1) of this paragraph (F) and valid Bids referred to in clause (2) of this paragraph (F). 
 (G) If more than
one Bid for Auction Rate Notes is submitted on behalf of any Potential Owner, each Bid submitted shall be a separate Bid with the rate and principal amount therein specified. 
  


					
		 	APPENDIX B-15	 	









 (H) An Existing Owner that offers to purchase additional Auction Rate Notes is, for
purposes of such offer, treated as a Potential Owner. 
 (I) Any Bid or Sell Order submitted by an Existing Owner covering an
aggregate principal amount of Auction Rate Notes 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 Notes not
equal to an Authorized Denomination shall be rejected. 
 (J) 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. 
 (K) 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, generally, as a “Submitted Order,” and collectively as “Submitted Hold Orders,” “Submitted Bids” or “Submitted Sell Orders,” as the case may be, or, generally, as
“Submitted Orders”) and shall determine (such determinations shall be made separately for the Auction Rate Notes): 
 (1) the excess of the total principal amount of Outstanding Auction Rate Notes over the sum of the aggregate principal amount of Outstanding Auction Rate Notes subject to Submitted Hold Orders (such excess being herein referred to as the
“Available Auction Rate Notes”), and 
 (2) From the Submitted Orders whether: 
 a. the aggregate principal amount of Outstanding Auction Rate Notes 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: 
 1. the aggregate principal
amount of Outstanding Auction Rate Notes subject to Submitted Bids by Existing Owners specifying one or more rates higher than the applicable Maximum Rate; and 
 2. the aggregate principal amount of Outstanding Auction Rate Notes subject to Submitted Sell Orders; 
  


					
		 	APPENDIX B-16	 	









 (in the event such excess or such equality exists, other than because all of the Outstanding Auction
Rate Notes 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 Notes 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 Notes which, when added to the aggregate principal amount of Outstanding Auction Rate Notes to be purchased by such Potential Owners described in subclause b. above, would equal not
less than the Available Auction Rate Notes. 
 (B) Promptly after the Auction Agent has made the determinations pursuant to
Section 2.02(a)(iii)(A) of this Appendix B, the Auction Agent shall advise the Trustee, the Broker-Dealers and the Issuer of the Maximum Rate and the All Hold Rate and the components thereof on the Auction Date and, based on such
determinations, the Auction Note Interest Rate for the next succeeding Interest Accrual Period as follows: 
 (1) if
Sufficient Bids exist, that the Auction Note Interest Rate for the next succeeding Interest Accrual 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 Notes are subject to Submitted Hold Orders),
that the Auction Note Interest Rate for the next succeeding Interest Accrual Period shall be equal to the applicable Maximum Rate; or 
 (3) if all Outstanding Auction Rate Notes are subject to Submitted Hold Orders, that the Auction Note Interest Rate for the next succeeding Interest Accrual Period shall be equal to the applicable All Hold Rate.

  


					
		 	APPENDIX B-17	 	









 (C) Promptly after the Auction Agent has determined the Auction Note Interest Rate, the
Auction Agent shall advise the Trustee of the Auction Note Interest Rate. 
 (iv) Existing Owners shall continue to own the
principal amount of Auction Rate Notes that are subject to Submitted Hold Orders. If the Maximum 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 Bid 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 Notes are subject to Submitted Hold Orders), the Auction Note Interest Rate will be the 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, and if the Maximum Rate does not apply (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 clause (D) 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 Notes 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
Notes 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 Notes subject to such Submitted Bid, unless the aggregate principal amount of Outstanding
Auction Rate Notes subject to all such Submitted Bids shall be greater than the principal amount of Auction Rate Notes (the “remaining principal amount”) equal to the excess of the Available Auction Rate Notes over the aggregate principal
amount of

Auction Rate Notes 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 Notes subject to such Submitted Bid, but only in an amount equal to the aggregate principal
amount of Auction Rate Notes obtained by multiplying the remaining principal amount by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the principal amount of Outstanding Auction Rate Notes 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 Notes 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 B; 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 Notes obtained by multiplying the excess of the aggregate principal amount of Available Auction Rate Notes
over the aggregate principal amount of Auction Rate Notes 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 Notes subject to such Submitted Bid and the denominator of which shall be the sum of the principal amount of Outstanding Auction Rate Notes 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 B. 
 (B)
If Sufficient Bids have not been made (other than because all of the Outstanding Auction Rate Notes 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 B, 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 Notes 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 
  


					
		 	APPENDIX B-19	 	









 (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 Notes 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 Notes obtained by multiplying the aggregate principal amount of Auction Rate Notes 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 Notes 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 Notes subject to all such Submitted Bids and Submitted Sell Orders. 
 (C) If all Auction Rate Notes 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 Notes 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 Notes to be purchased or sold by any Existing Owner or Potential Owner so that the principal amount of Auction Rate Notes purchased or sold by each Existing Owner
or Potential Owner shall be equal to an Authorized Denomination even if such allocation results in one or more of such Potential Owners not purchasing any Auction Rate Notes. 
 (v) Based on the result of each Auction, the Auction Agent shall determine the aggregate principal amount of Auction Rate Notes to be
purchased and the aggregate principal amount of Auction Rate Notes 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 Notes to be sold differs from such aggregate principal amount of Auction Rate Notes 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 Notes. 
 (vi) Notwithstanding anything in this Appendix B to the contrary, (A) no Auction 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 Collection Fund to pay, or otherwise held by the Trustee under the Indenture and available to pay, the principal of and interest due on any such Auction Rate Notes on
the Auction Rate Distribution 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 Trustee shall promptly notify the Auction Agent of any
such occurrence. 
  


					
		 	APPENDIX B-20	 	









 (b) Application of interest payments for the auction rate notes. 
 (i) The Trustee shall determine not later than 2:00 p.m., Eastern time, on the Business Day next succeeding an Auction Rate Distribution
Date, whether a Payment Default has occurred. If a Payment Default has occurred, the Trustee shall, not later than 2:15 p.m., Eastern time, on such Business Day, send a notice thereof in substantially the form of Attachment A attached hereto to the
Auction Agent by telecopy or similar means and, if such Payment Default is cured, the Trustee shall immediately send a notice in substantially the form of Attachment B 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 Date of Issuance, the Trustee shall pay to the Auction Agent, in
immediately available funds out of amounts in the Collection Fund or the Future Distribution Fund, as applicable, in accordance with Sections 5.04(c) and 5.04(d) of this Indenture, an amount equal to the Auction Agent Fee as set forth in the Auction
Agent Agreement. Not later than 2:00 p.m., Eastern time, on each Auction Date, the Trustee shall pay to the Auction Agent, in immediately available funds out of amounts in the Collection Fund or the Future Distribution Fund, as applicable, in
accordance with Sections 5.04(c) and 5.04(d) of this Indenture, an amount equal to the Broker-Dealer Fee as calculated in the Auction Agent Agreement. 
 (c) Calculation of Maximum Rate, All Hold Rate, Applicable LIBOR Rate, and Non-Payment Rate. The Auction Agent shall calculate the Maximum Rate, Applicable LIBOR Rate and All Hold Rate, as the case may be, on each
Auction Date and shall notify the Trustee and the Broker-Dealers of the Maximum 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 Notes
is no longer maintained in Book-Entry Form, or if a Payment Default has occurred, then the Trustee shall determine the Maximum Rate, Applicable LIBOR Rate, All Hold Rate and Non-Payment Rate for each such Interest Accrual Period. If the ownership of
the Auction Rate Notes is no longer maintained in Book-Entry Form by the Clearing Agency, the Trustee shall calculate the Maximum Rate on the Business Day immediately preceding the first day of each Interest Accrual Period after the delivery of
certificates representing the Auction Rate Notes pursuant to the Indenture. If a Payment Default shall have occurred, the Trustee shall calculate the Non-Payment Rate on the Interest Rate Determination Date for (i) each Interest Accrual Period
commencing after the occurrence and during the continuance of such Payment Default and (ii) any Interest Accrual Period commencing less than two Business Days after the cure of any Payment Default. The determination by the Trustee or the
Auction Agent, as the case may be, of the Maximum 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 Trustee of the Maximum Rate, Applicable LIBOR Rate and All Hold Rate. The Trustee shall be allowed to hire such consultants or experts as it deems necessary to make any such calculations required of the
Trustee as set forth in this Indenture or the Auction Agent Agreement. 
  


					
		 	APPENDIX B-21	 	









 (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 Trustee shall determine the aggregate amounts
of interest distributable on the next succeeding Auction Rate Distribution Date to the beneficial owners of Auction Rate Notes. 
 (ii) At least four days prior to any Auction Rate Distribution Date, the 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 Notes is maintained in Book-Entry Form by the Clearing Agency, (1) the date of such next Auction Rate Distribution Date and
(2) the amount payable to the Auction Agent on the Auction Date pursuant to Section 2.02(b)(ii) of this Appendix B; 
 (B) pursuant to Section 2.01 of this Appendix B, advise the Registered Owners of the Auction Rate Notes of any Carry-Over Amount accruing on such Auction Rate Notes; and 
 (C) advise the Clearing Agency, so long as the ownership of the Auction Rate Notes is maintained in Book-Entry Form by the Clearing
Agency, upon request, of the aggregate amount of interest distributable on such next Auction Rate Distribution Date to the beneficial owners of the Auction Rate Notes. 
 If any day scheduled to be an Auction Rate Distribution Date shall be changed after the Trustee shall have given the notice or
confirmation referred to in clause (ii) of the preceding sentence, the Trustee shall, not later than 11:15 a.m., Eastern time, on the Business Day next preceding the earlier of the new Auction Rate Distribution Date or the old Auction Rate
Distribution Date, by such means as the 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 Notes is maintained in Book-Entry
Form by the Clearing Agency. 
 (e) Auction Agent. 
 (i) The Bank of New York is hereby appointed as Initial Auction Agent by the Trustee. 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 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 B-22	 	









 
Appendix B by giving at least 90 days’ notice to the Trustee, each Broker-Dealer and the Issuer. The Auction Agent may be removed at any time by the
Trustee upon the written direction of an authorized officer or the Registered Owners of 51% of the aggregate principal amount of the auction rate notes then outstanding, and if by such Registered Owners, by an instrument signed by such Registered
Owners or their attorneys and filed with the Auction Agent, the Issuer and the 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 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 Issuer, shall use its
best efforts to appoint a Substitute Auction Agent. 
 (iii) 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-Dealers. 
 (i) The Auction Agent will enter into Broker-Dealer Agreements with each of Banc of America
Securities LLC and J.P. Morgan Securities Inc., as the initial Broker-Dealers for the Auction Rate Notes. An Authorized Representative may, from time to time, approve one or more additional persons to serve as Broker Dealers under Broker-Dealer
Agreements and shall be responsible for providing such Broker-Dealer Agreements to the Trustee and the Auction Agent. 
 (ii)
Any Broker-Dealer may be removed at any time, at the request of an Authorized Representative, 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 Notes 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 

  


					
		 	APPENDIX B-23	 	









 
relevant to the length of the Auction Period and the interest rate borne by the Auction Rate Notes. The Issuer shall not initiate an Auction Period
Adjustment unless it shall have received the written consent of the applicable Broker-Dealers, 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 Trustee, the Auction Agent, the applicable Broker-Dealers, each Rating Agency and the Registered Owners of the Auction Rate Notes in substantially the form of, or
containing substantially the information contained in, Attachment C attached hereto at least 10 days prior to the Auction Date for such Auction Period. 
 (ii) An Auction Period Adjustment shall take effect only if (A) the 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, Attachment D attached hereto, authorizing the Auction Period Adjustment specified in such certificate along with a
copy of the written consents of the applicable Broker-Dealers and, (B) Sufficient Bids exist as of the Auction on the Auction Date for such first Auction Period. If the condition referred to in clause (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 clause (A) above is met but the condition referred in clause (B) above is not met, the applicable Auction Note Interest Rate for the next Auction Period shall be the 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 2.06 of the Auction Agent Agreement. 
 (h)
Changes in the Auction Date. The applicable Broker-Dealer, with the written consent of an Authorized Representative, may specify an earlier 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 B 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 Notes. 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 Trustee, the Auction
Agent, the Issuer, each Rating Agency and the Registered Owners of the Auction Rate Notes. Such notice shall be substantially in the form of, or contain substantially the information contained in, Attachment E attached hereto. 
  


					
		 	APPENDIX B-24	 	









 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 2.06 of the Auction Agent Agreement. 
 Section 2.03. Additional
provisions regarding the interest rates on the auction rate notes. The determination of an Auction Note Interest 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 Registered Owners of the Auction Rate Notes to which such Auction Note Interest Rate applies, and the Issuer and the Trustee may rely thereon for all purposes. 
 In no event shall the cumulative amount of interest paid or payable on the Auction Rate Notes (including interest calculated as provided herein, plus any
other amounts that constitute interest on the Auction Rate Notes under applicable law, which are contracted for, charged, reserved, taken or received pursuant to the Auction Rate Notes or related documents) calculated from the Date of Issuance of
the Auction Rate Notes through any subsequent day during the term of the Auction Rate Notes or otherwise prior to payment in full of the Auction Rate Notes 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 Notes or related documents or otherwise contracted for, charged, reserved, taken or received in connection with the Auction Rate Notes, or if the redemption or
acceleration of the maturity of the Auction Rate Notes results in payment to or receipt by the Registered Owner or any former Registered Owner of the Auction Rate Notes of any interest in excess of that permitted by applicable law, then,
notwithstanding any provision of the Auction Rate Notes or related documents to the contrary, all excess amounts theretofore paid or received with respect to the Auction Rate Notes shall be credited on the principal balance of the Auction Rate Notes
(or, if the Auction Rate Notes have been paid or would thereby be paid in full, refunded by the recipient thereof), and the provisions of the Auction Rate Notes 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 Notes and under the related documents. 
 Section 2.04. Amendments to this Appendix B. The provisions of this
Appendix B, including without limitation the definitions of All Hold Rate, Auction Note Interest Rate, Auction Rate Distribution Date, Maximum Rate and Non Payment Rate, may be amended pursuant to the Indenture by obtaining the consent of the
Registered Owners of all affected Outstanding Auction Rate Notes as follows. If on the first Auction Date occurring at least 20 days after the date on which the Trustee mailed notice of such proposed amendment to the Registered Owners of the
affected Outstanding Auction Rate Notes as required by the Indenture, the Auction Note Interest Rate which is determined on such date is the Bid Auction Rate or the All Hold Rate, the proposed amendment shall be deemed to have been consented to by
the Registered Owners of all affected Outstanding Auction Rate Notes.
