reason be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provisions of this Supplemental Indenture or of the Notes, but this Supplemental Indenture and the
Notes shall be construed as if such invalid or illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein or therein.

 WHEREAS, effective the date hereof, the Company merged with and into the Successor Company (the

of the Indenture, upon the Merger, the Successor Company succeeded to, and was substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of, the Company under the Indenture and the Securities, with the same effect as if the Successor Company had been

Amendments

“GUARANTOR” means Navient Corporation until a successor replaces it, and thereafter means the successor. 

“SECURITY GUARANTY” means the guaranty of a Security by the Guarantor pursuant to the Indenture. 

  
 2 

 SECTION 3.2    Security Guaranty. The Indenture is hereby amended and
supplemented by the addition of the following Article 13: 
 ARTICLE 13 

Section 13.01. The Guaranty. Subject to the provisions of this Article, the Guarantor hereby fully, irrevocably and
unconditionally guarantees, jointly and severally, on an unsecured basis, the full and punctual payment (whether at the date of maturity, upon redemption, purchase pursuant to an offer to purchase or acceleration, or otherwise) of the principal of,
premium, if any, and interest on, and all other amounts payable under, each Security, and the full and punctual payment of all other amounts payable by the Successor Company under the Indenture. Upon failure by the Successor Company to pay
punctually any such amount, the Guarantor shall forthwith on demand pay the amount not so paid at the place and in the manner specified in the Indenture. 

Section 13.02. Guaranty Unconditional. The obligations of the Guarantor hereunder are unconditional and absolute and, without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, will not be released, discharged or otherwise affected by: 

(1)    any extension, renewal, settlement, compromise, waiver or release in respect of any obligation of
the Successor Company under the Indenture or any Security, by operation of law or otherwise; 

(2)    any modification or amendment of or supplement to the Indenture or any Security; 

(3)    any change in the corporate existence, structure or ownership of the Successor Company, or any
insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or other similar proceeding affecting the Successor Company or its assets or any resulting release or discharge of any obligation of the Successor Company contained in the Indenture or any Security; 

(4)    the existence of any claim, set-off or other rights which
the Guarantor may have at any time against the Successor Company, the Trustee or any other Person, whether in connection with the Indenture or any unrelated transactions, provided that nothing herein prevents the assertion of any such claim
by separate suit or compulsory counterclaim; 
 (5)    any invalidity or unenforceability relating to or
against the Successor Company for any reason of the Indenture or any Security, or any provision of applicable law or regulation purporting to prohibit the payment by the Successor Company of the principal of or interest on any Security or any other
amount payable by the Successor Company under the Indenture; or 
 (6)    any other act or omission to
act or delay of any kind by the Successor Company, the Trustee or any other Person or any other circumstance whatsoever which might, but for the provisions of this paragraph, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of or defense to the
Guarantor’s obligations hereunder. 

  
 3 

 Section 13.03. Discharge; Reinstatement. The Guarantor’s obligations hereunder
will remain in full force and effect until the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the applicable Security and all other amounts payable by the Successor Company on the applicable Security under the Indenture have been paid in full. If at
any time any payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any such Security or any other amount payable by the Successor Company under the Indenture is rescinded or must be otherwise restored or returned upon the insolvency,
bankruptcy or reorganization of the Successor Company or otherwise, the Guarantor’s obligations hereunder with respect to such payment will be reinstated as though such payment had been due but not made at such time. 

Section 13.04. Waiver by the Guarantor. The Guarantor irrevocably waives acceptance hereof, presentment, demand, protest and any
notice not provided for herein, as well as any requirement that at any time any action be taken by any Person against the Successor Company or any other Person. 

Section 13.05. Subrogation and Contribution. Upon making any payment with respect to any obligation of the Successor Company under
this Article, the Guarantor making such payment will be subrogated to the rights of the payee against the Successor Company with respect to such obligation. 

Section 13.06. Stay of Acceleration. If acceleration of the time for payment of any amount payable by the Successor Company under
the Indenture or the Securities is stayed upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of the Successor Company, all such amounts otherwise subject to acceleration under the terms of the Indenture are nonetheless payable by the Guarantor
hereunder forthwith on demand by the Trustee or the Holders. 
 Section 13.07. Limitation on Amount of Guaranty. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in this Article, the Guarantor, and the Trustee on behalf of each Holder of Securities, hereby confirm that it is the intention of all such parties that the Security Guaranty of the Guarantor not constitute a fraudulent
conveyance under applicable fraudulent conveyance provisions of the United States Bankruptcy Code or any comparable provision of state law. To effectuate that intention, the Trustee, the Holders and the Guarantor hereby irrevocably agree that the
obligations of the Guarantor under its Security Guaranty are limited to the maximum amount that would not render the Guarantor’s obligations subject to avoidance under applicable fraudulent conveyance provisions of the United States Bankruptcy
Code or any comparable provision of state law. 
 Section 13.08. Execution and Delivery of Security Guaranty. The execution by
the Guarantor of the Indenture (or a supplemental indenture) evidences the Security Guaranty, whether or not the person signing as an officer of the Guarantor still holds that office at the time of authentication of any Security. The delivery of any
Security by the Trustee after authentication constitutes due delivery of the Security Guaranty set forth in the Indenture on behalf of the Guarantor. 

Section 13.09. Release of Security Guaranty. The Security Guaranty of the Guarantor will terminate upon: 

(1)    a sale or other disposition (including by way of consolidation or merger) of the Guarantor or the
sale or disposition of all or substantially all the assets of the Guarantor (in each case other than to the Successor Company or a Subsidiary) otherwise permitted by the Indenture; 

  
 4 

 (2)    if the Security Guaranty was required pursuant to the
terms of the Indenture, the cessation of the circumstances requiring the Security Guaranty; 
 (3)    if
Navient Corporation or its successors requests such release in writing to the Trustee at any time; or 

(4)    defeasance or discharge of any Securities, or Series of Securities, but with respect to such
Securities or Series only as applicable, as provided in Article 8. 
 Upon delivery by the Successor Company to the Trustee of an
Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel to the foregoing effect, the Trustee will execute any documents reasonably required in order to evidence the release of the Guarantor from its obligations under the Security Guaranty. 

ARTICLE IV 
 Agreement To Be
Bound; Security Guaranty 
 SECTION 4.1    Agreement To Be Bound. Navient Corporation, by its execution of
this Supplemental Indenture, agrees to be a Guarantor of the Securities issued under the Indenture and to be bound by the terms of the Indenture applicable to the Guarantor, including, but not limited to, Article 13 of the Indenture. 

SECTION 4.2    Security Guaranty. Subject to the provisions of the Indenture, Navient Corporation hereby fully,
irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees, jointly and severally, on an unsecured basis, the full and punctual payment (whether at the date of maturity, upon redemption, purchase pursuant to an offer to purchase or acceleration, or otherwise) of
the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on, and all other amounts payable under, each Security, and the full and punctual payment of all other amounts payable by the Successor Company under the Indenture. Upon failure by the Successor
Company to pay punctually any such amount, the Guarantor shall forthwith on demand pay the amount not so paid at the place and in the manner specified in the Indenture.
