                                    ARTICLE I

                            VOTING OF SUBJECT SHARES

                  Section 1.1 Agreement to Vote Subject  Shares.  At any meeting
(including  any  and  all  postponements   and  adjournments   thereof)  of  the
stockholders of MeriStar (a "MeriStar  Stockholders Meeting") called to consider
and  vote  upon  the  approval  of the  Merger,  the  Merger  Agreement  and the
transactions contemplated thereby (the "Proposals"),  and in connection with any
action  to be taken in  respect  of the  Proposals  by  written  consent  of the
stockholders  of  MeriStar,  each  Stockholder  shall  vote or cause to be voted
(including by written consent, if applicable) all of such Stockholder's  Subject
Shares  in  favor  of the  Proposals  and any  other  matter  necessary  for the
consummation  of the  transactions  contemplated  by the  Merger  Agreement  and
considered  and voted upon at any such  meeting.  At any meeting (and at any and
all postponements and adjournments  thereof) of the stockholders of MeriStar (an
"Adverse  Meeting")  called to consider  and vote upon any Adverse  Proposal (as
defined below),  and in connection with any action to be taken in respect of any
Adverse   Proposal  by  written  consent  of  stockholders  of  MeriStar,   each
Stockholder  shall vote or cause to be voted (including by written  consent,  if
applicable)  all of such  Stockholder's  Subject  Shares  against  such  Adverse
Proposal. For purposes of this Agreement,  the term "Adverse Proposal" means any
(a) proposal or action that would  reasonably  be expected to result in a breach
of any covenant,  representation or warranty of MeriStar set forth in the Merger
Agreement  or (b)  proposal or action that is  intended or would  reasonably  be
expected to impede, interfere with, delay or materially and adversely affect the
Merger or any of the other transactions  contemplated by the Merger Agreement or
this Agreement.

                  Section 1.2 Other Proxies Revoked. Any proxies (other than the
Proxy) heretofore given in respect of such Stockholder's  Subject Shares are not
irrevocable and all such proxies are hereby revoked.

                                   ARTICLE II

                         REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

                  Section   2.1   Representations   and   Warranties   of   the
Stockholders.  Each  Stockholder,  severally  and not  jointly,  represents  and
warrants,  as of the date hereof, the time of each MeriStar Stockholders Meeting
and each Adverse Meeting and as of the Effective Time, to ASC as follows:

                   (a) Except for Subject Shares  transferred in accordance with
Section 3.1 hereof after the date hereof,  such  Stockholder  is the sole record
and beneficial  owner of the number of shares of MeriStar Common Stock set forth

                                                                               3

Common Stock into which such other  equity or voting  interests  are  converted,
being collectively  referred to herein as such  Stockholder's  "Subject Shares")
and has full, unrestricted and sole power to dispose of and to vote such Subject
Shares.  Such Subject  Shares are now,  and at all times prior to the  Effective
Time will be, held by such  Stockholder,  or by a nominee or  custodian  for the
benefit  of such  Stockholder,  free and clear of all  liens,  voting  trusts or
agreements,  powers of attorney,  proxies or any other  arrangement or agreement
with any person or entity limiting or affecting such  Stockholder's  legal power
or authority to vote or sell the Subject Shares,  except for those  restrictions
arising  hereunder or under the Proxy delivered by such Stockholder or set forth
under applicable securities laws and except as specified on Schedule 2.1 hereto.
Such  Stockholder  does not  beneficially  own or hold any rights to acquire any
additional securities of MeriStar other than such Subject Shares.

                   (b) Such Stockholder has all requisite power and authority to
enter into this Agreement, to grant the Proxy and to consummate the transactions
contemplated  hereby. The execution and delivery of this Agreement and the Proxy
by such Stockholder and the consummation by such Stockholder of the transactions
contemplated  hereby have been duly authorized by all necessary  action, if any,
on the part of such  Stockholder.  This  Agreement  and the Proxy have been duly
executed and delivered by such  Stockholder  and,  assuming that this  Agreement
constitutes the valid and binding  obligation of ASC, each of this Agreement and
the  Proxy  constitutes  a valid and  binding  obligation  of such  Stockholder,
enforceable  against such  Stockholder in accordance with its terms,  subject to
applicable  bankruptcy,   insolvency,  fraudulent  conveyance,   reorganization,
moratorium and similar laws affecting  creditors' rights and remedies  generally
and to general principles of equity. The Proxy is an irrevocable proxy,  coupled
with an interest,  and ASC shall,  by operation of the Proxy,  have the power to
vote such  Stockholder's  Subject Shares in accordance with, and as contemplated
by, Section 1.1 and by the terms of the Proxy.

                   (c) The  execution  and delivery of this  Agreement or of the
Proxy does not, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and
thereby and compliance with the provisions hereof and thereof will not, conflict
with,  result in a breach or violation of or default (with or without  notice or
lapse of time or both)  under,  give rise to a material  obligation,  a right of
termination,  cancellation,  or  acceleration  of any  obligation or a loss of a
material  benefit under, or require notice to or the consent of any person under
(i) in the  case  of a  Stockholder  that is a  corporation  or  other  business
organization, any organizational documents of such Stockholder, (ii) in the case
of any  Stockholder  that is a  trust,  violate  or  conflict  with  any term or
provision  of the  indenture,  or other  governing  or  testamentary  instrument
relating to such trust or (iii) in the case of any  Stockholder,  any  Contract,
Law,  order,  injunction,  determination  or award binding on such  Stockholder,
other than any such  conflicts,  breaches,  violations,  defaults,  obligations,
rights or losses that,  individually  or in the aggregate,  would not (i) impair
the ability of such Stockholder to perform such Stockholder's  obligations under

this  Agreement  or  (ii)  prevent  or  delay  the  consummation  of  any of the
transactions contemplated hereby.

enter into any  contract,  option or other  arrangement  or  understanding  with
respect  to  or  consent  to  the  offer  for  sale,  sale,  transfer,   tender,
encumbrance,   assignment  or  other   disposition   of,  any  or  all  of  such
Stockholder's  Subject Shares,  unless it receives (i) an irrevocable  proxy, in
form and  substance  substantially  similar  to  Exhibit A  hereto,  to vote the
transferred  Subject Shares as provided  therein and (ii) a deed of adherence to
this Agreement  (including  representations and warranties of the type set forth
in Section 2.1) reasonably  satisfactory to the other parties hereto executed by
the transferee of such Subject Shares;  (B) except pursuant to the terms of this
Agreement  and except for the  execution  and  delivery of the Proxy,  grant any
proxies or powers of attorney,  deposit any of such Stockholder's Subject Shares
into a voting trust or enter into a voting agreement with respect to any of such
Stockholder's  Subject Shares;  or (C) take any action that would  reasonably be
expected to make any  representation  or  warranty  contained  herein  untrue or
incorrect or have the effect of  impairing  the ability of such  Stockholder  to
perform such  Stockholder's  obligations  under this  Agreement or preventing or
delaying the  consummation  of any of the  transactions  contemplated  hereby or
revoke or invalidate the Proxy.

              Section  3.2  Reliance  by  ASC;  Cooperation.   Each  Stockholder
understands and  acknowledges  that ASC is entering into the Merger Agreement in

fulfill  the  conditions  to the  Merger  set forth in  Article VI of the Merger
Agreement.

                                  MISCELLANEOUS

              Section  4.1 Fees and  Expenses.  Except  as set  forth in the ASC
Voting/Recapitalization  Agreement, each party hereto shall pay its own expenses
incident to preparing for, entering into and carrying out this Agreement and the

parties hereto. This Agreement shall terminate  immediately upon the termination

Section 4.2, this Agreement  shall become null and void and of no effect with no
liability  on the part of any party hereto and all Proxies  shall  automatically
terminate;  provided,  however, that no such termination shall relieve any party

termination of this Agreement.

              Section 4.3  Extension,  Waiver.  Any  agreement  on the part of a
party to waive any  provision of this  Agreement,  or to extend the time for any

writing  signed  on  behalf  of such  party.  The  failure  of any party to this
Agreement  to assert any of its rights under this  Agreement or otherwise  shall
not constitute a waiver of such rights.

Agreement constitutes the entire agreement,  and supersedes all prior agreements
and understandings, both written and oral, among the parties with respect to the

              Section 4.7  Assignment.  Neither  this  Agreement  nor any of the
rights,  interests  or  obligations  under this  Agreement  may be  assigned  or
delegated,  in  whole or in  part,  by  operation  of law or  otherwise,  by any
Stockholder  without  the prior  written  consent of ASC,  or by ASC without the
prior written consent of the  Stockholders and any such assignment or delegation
that is not  consented  to shall  be null and  void.  Subject  to the  preceding
sentence,  this Agreement shall be binding upon, inure to the benefit of, and be
enforceable  by,  the  parties  and  their  respective  successors  and  assigns
(including,  without limitation, any person to whom any Subject Shares are sold,
transferred or assigned).

              Section 4.8 Further Assurances. Each Stockholder shall execute and
deliver such other  documents and  instruments  and take such further actions as
may be  necessary or  appropriate  or as may be  reasonably  requested by ASC in
order to ensure that ASC receives the full benefit of this Agreement.

              Section 4.9  Enforcement.  Irreparable  damage  would occur in the
event  that  any of the  provisions  of this  Agreement  were not  performed  in
accordance  with their specific terms or were otherwise  breached.  Accordingly,
the  parties  shall be  entitled  to an  injunction  or  injunctions  to prevent
breaches of this Agreement and to enforce  specifically the terms and provisions
of this Agreement in the federal court of the United States located in the State
of New  York,  this  being in  addition  to any other  remedy to which  they are
entitled at law or in equity. Each of the parties hereto (i) shall submit itself
to the  jurisdiction  of the  federal  courts of the  United  States of  America
located  in the State of New York in the event any  dispute  arises  out of this
Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby, (ii) shall not attempt
to deny or defeat  such  personal  jurisdiction  by motion or other  request for
leave from any such court, and (iii) shall not bring any action relating to this
Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby in any court other than

agrees that any  controversy  that may arise under this  Agreement  is likely to
involve  complicated and difficult issues,  and therefore each such party hereby
irrevocably and unconditionally  waives any right such party may have to a trial
by jury in respect of any  litigation  directly or indirectly  arising out of or
relating to this Agreement or the  transactions  contemplated by this Agreement.
Each party  certifies  and  acknowledges  that (i) no  representative,  agent or
attorney of any other party has represented,  expressly or otherwise,  that such
other party would not, in the event of litigation, seek to enforce the foregoing
waiver,  (ii) each such party understands and has considered the implications of
this waiver, (iii) each such party makes this waiver voluntarily,  and (iv) each
such party has been induced to enter into this agreement by, among other things,
the mutual waivers and certifications in this Section 4.10.

              Section 4.11 Severability.  Whenever  possible,  each provision or
portion of any provision of this  Agreement  shall be interpreted in such manner
as to be  effective  and valid  under  applicable  law but if any  provision  or
portion of any  provision of this  Agreement  is held to be invalid,  illegal or
unenforceable   in  any  respect  under  any  applicable  law  or  rule  in  any
jurisdiction,  such invalidity,  illegality or unenforceability shall not affect
any other provision or portion of any provision in such  jurisdiction,  and this
Agreement shall be reformed,  construed and enforced in such  jurisdiction as if
such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision or portion of any provision had
never been contained herein.

              Section 4.12  Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed in one

provided for (herein referred to as "Defaulted Interest") shall cease to be
payable to the person who is the Holder thereof at the close of business on the
Regular Record Date and shall be payable to the person who is the Holder thereof
at the close of business on a Special Record Date for the payment of any such
Defaulted Interest. Such Special Record Date shall

                                      -13-
<PAGE>

be fixed by the Trustee whenever moneys become available for payment of the
Defaulted Interest, and notice of the Special Record Date shall be given to the
Holders of the Series 2000-1 Notes not less than ten (10) days prior thereto by
first-class mail to each such Holder as shown on the Note Register on a date
selected by the Trustee, stating the date of the Special Record Date and the
date fixed for the payment of such Defaulted Interest. All payments of principal
of and interest on the Series 2000-1 Notes shall be made in lawful money of the
United States of America.

          The Series 2000-1 Notes are subject to redemption prior to their
Stated Maturities upon the terms and conditions and at the Redemption Prices
specified in Section 16 hereof.

          Subject to the provisions of the Indenture, the Series 2000-1 Senior
Notes shall be in substantially the form set forth in Exhibit A hereto, with
such variations, omissions and insertions as may be required by the
circumstances, be required or permitted by the Indenture, or be consistent with
the Indenture and necessary or appropriate to conform to the rules and
requirements of any governmental authority or any usage or requirement of law
with respect thereto.

          Subject to the provisions of the Indenture, the Series 2000-1C Notes
shall be in substantially the form set forth in Exhibit B hereto, with such
variations, omissions and insertions as may be required by the circumstances, be
required or permitted by the Indenture, or be consistent with the Indenture and
necessary or appropriate to conform to the rules and requirements of any
governmental authority or any usage or requirement of law with respect thereto.

          Section 3.  Interest Payable on Series 2000-1 Notes. The Initial
                      ---------------------------------------
Interest Rate Adjustment Dates for each series of Series 2000-1 Notes shall be
(i) with respect to the Series 2000-1A Notes and the Series 2000-1C Notes,
January 4, 2001, and (ii) with respect to the Series 2000-1B Notes, January 11,
2001.

          During the Initial Interest Period, each series of Series 2000-1 Notes
shall bear interest at the Series 2000-1 Note Initial Interest Rate for such
series. Thereafter, except with respect to an Auction Period Adjustment, the
Series 2000-1 Notes shall bear interest at a Series 2000-1 Note Auction Rate
based on a 28-day Auction Period, as determined pursuant to this Section 3 and
Sections 4 through 12 hereof.

          The Series 2000-1 Note Auction Rate to be borne by each series of
Series 2000-1 Notes after such Initial Interest Period for each Auction Period
until an Auction Period Adjustment, if any, shall be determined as hereinbelow
described. Each such Auction Period shall commence on and include the Thursday
(or, if such Thursday is not a Business Day, the next succeeding Business Day)
following the expiration of the immediately preceding Auction Period and
terminate on and include the last day immediately preceding the Thursday (or, if
such Thursday is not a Business Day, the next succeeding Business Day) of the
fourth following week; provided, however, that in the case of the Auction Period
that immediately follows the Initial Interest Period for a series of Series
2000-1 Notes, such Auction Period shall commence on the Initial Interest Rate
Adjustment Date for such series. The

                                      -14-
<PAGE>

Series 2000-1 Note Auction Rate on each series of Series 2000-1 Notes for each
Auction Period shall be the lesser of (i) the Net Loan Rate in effect for such
Auction Period, and (ii) the Auction Rate in effect for such Auction Period as
determined in accordance with Section 4 hereof; provided that if, on any
Interest Rate Determination Date, an Auction is not held for any reason, then
the Series 2000-1 Note Auction Rate on such series for the next succeeding
Auction Period shall equal the lesser of (a) the Maximum Auction Rate and (b)
the Net Loan Rate.

          Notwithstanding the foregoing:

          (a)  if the ownership of a series of Series 2000-1 Notes is no longer
     maintained in Book-Entry Form, the Series 2000-1 Note Auction Rate on such
     series for any Interest Period commencing after the delivery of definitive
     notes representing such series pursuant to Section 17 hereof shall equal
     the lesser of (i) the Maximum Auction Rate and (ii) the Net Loan Rate on
     the Business Day immediately preceding the first day of such subsequent
     Interest Period; or

          (b)  if a Payment Default shall have occurred with respect to a series
     of Series 2000-1 Notes, the Series 2000-1 Note Auction Rate on such series
     for the Interest Period commencing on or immediately after such Payment
     Default, and for each Interest Period thereafter, to and including the
     Interest Period, if any, during which, or commencing less than two (2)
     Business Days after, such Payment Default is cured, shall equal the Non-
     Payment Rate on the first day of each such Interest Period.

          In accordance with Section 4(c)(iii) hereof, the Auction Agent shall
promptly give written notice to the Trustee and the Corporation of each Series
2000-1 Note Auction Rate (unless the Series 2000-1 Note Auction Rate is the Non-
Payment Rate or the ownership of such series is no longer maintained in Book-
Entry Form) and either the Auction Rate or the Net Loan Rate, as the case may
be, when such rate is not the Series 2000-1 Note Auction Rate, applicable to
each series of Series 2000-1 Notes. The Trustee shall notify the Holders of
Series 2000-1 Notes of the Series 2000-1 Note Auction Rate applicable to each
such series for each Auction Period on the second Business Day of such Auction
Period.

          In the event that the last Business Day immediately preceding what
would otherwise be the commencement date of an Auction Period for a series of
Series 2000-1 Notes is more than five days prior to such date, the Interest Rate
Determination Date and commencement date for such Auction Period, as well as the
expiration date for the preceding Auction Period, may be adjusted to fall on
such dates as the Market Agent, with the consent of the Corporation, may
determine to be appropriate under such circumstances. The Market Agent shall
promptly notify the Trustee and the Auction Agent in writing of any such
determination. The Trustee, upon receipt of such notice, shall immediately give
written notification of such determination to the Holders of such series of
Series 2000-1 Notes.

                                      -15-
<PAGE>

          Notwithstanding any other provision of the Series 2000-1 Notes or this
Second Supplemental Indenture, and except for the occurrence of a Payment
Default, interest payable on each series of the Series 2000-1 Notes for an
Auction Period shall never exceed for such Auction Period the amount of interest
payable at the Net Loan Rate (subject to the Series 2000-1 Note Auction Rate
Limitation) in effect for such Auction Period.

          If the Auction Rate for a series of Series 2000-1 Notes is greater
than the Net Loan Rate, then the Series 2000-1 Note Auction Rate applicable to
such series for that Interest Period will be the Net Loan Rate. If the Series
2000-1 Note Auction Rate for a series of Series 2000-1 Notes for any Interest
Period is the Net Loan Rate, the Trustee shall determine the Carry-Over Amount,
if any, with respect to such series for such Interest Period. Such determination
of the Carry-Over Amount shall be made separately for each series of Series
2000-1 Notes. Each 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 Interest Payment Date for the Interest
Period with respect to which such Carry-Over Amount was calculated, until paid.
Any payment in respect of Carry-Over Amount shall be applied, first, to any
accrued interest payable thereon and, thereafter, in reduction of such Carry-
Over Amount. For purposes of this Second Supplemental Indenture, the Indenture
and the Series 2000-1 Notes, any reference to "principal" or "interest" herein
and therein 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 Series 2000-1 Note of such series
by the Trustee during such Interest Period in sufficient time for the Trustee to
give notice to each Holder of such Carry- Over Amount as required in the next
succeeding sentence. On the Interest Payment Date for an Interest Period with
respect to which such Carry-Over Amount has been calculated by the Trustee, the
Trustee shall give written notice to each Holder of the Carry-Over Amount
applicable to such Holder's Series 2000-1 Note, which written notice may
accompany the payment of interest by check made to each such Holder on such
Interest Payment Date or otherwise shall be mailed on such Interest Payment Date
by first-class mail, postage prepaid, to each such Holder at such Holder's
address as it appears on the registration books maintained by the Note
Registrar. Such notice shall state, in addition to such Carry-Over Amount, that,
unless and until a Series 2000-1 Note has been redeemed or has been deemed no
longer Outstanding under the Indenture (after which all accrued Carry-Over
Amount with respect to such Series 2000-1 Note (and all accrued interest
thereon) that remains unpaid shall be cancelled and no Carry-Over Amount (or
interest accrued thereon) shall be paid with respect to such Series 2000-1
Note), (i) the Carry-Over Amount (and interest accrued thereon) shall be paid by
the Trustee on such Series 2000-1 Note on the first occurring Interest Payment
Date for a subsequent Interest Period if and to the extent that (l) the Eligible
Carry-Over Make-Up Amount with respect to such Interest Period is greater than
zero, and (2) moneys are available pursuant to the terms of this Second
Supplemental Indenture to pay such Carry-Over Amount (and interest accrued
thereon), and (ii) interest shall accrue on the Carry-Over Amount at a per annum
rate equal to One-Month LIBOR until such Carry-Over Amount is paid in full or is
cancelled.

                                      -16-
<PAGE>

          The Carry-Over Amount (and interest accrued thereon) for a series of
Series 2000- 1 Notes shall be paid by the Trustee on Outstanding Series 2000-1
Notes of such series on the first occurring Interest Payment Date for a
subsequent Interest Period if and to the extent that (i) the Eligible Carry-Over
Make-Up Amount with respect to such Interest Period is greater than zero, and
(ii) moneys in the Surplus Account are available on such Interest Payment Date
for transfer to the Interest Account for such purpose in accordance with the
second paragraph of Section 4.8 of the Indenture, after taking into account all
other amounts payable from the Surplus Fund in accordance with such paragraph on
such Interest Payment Date. Any Carry-Over Amount (and any interest accrued
thereon) with respect to any Series 2000-1 Note which is unpaid as of an
Interest Payment Date, which Series 2000-1 Note is to be redeemed or deemed no
longer Outstanding under this Second Supplemental Indenture on such Interest
Payment Date, shall be paid to the Holder thereof on such Interest Payment Date
to the extent that moneys are available therefor in accordance with the
provisions of the preceding clause (ii); provided, however, that any Carry-Over
Amount (and any interest accrued thereon) which is not so paid on such Interest
Payment Date shall be cancelled with respect to such Series 2000-1 Note on such
Interest Payment Date and shall not be paid on any succeeding Interest Payment
Date. To the extent that any portion of the Carry-Over Amount (and any interest
accrued thereon) remains unpaid after payment of a portion thereof, such unpaid
portion shall be paid in whole or in part as required hereunder until fully paid
by the Trustee on the next occurring Interest Payment Date or Dates, as
necessary, for a subsequent Interest Period or Periods, if and to the extent
that the conditions in the first sentence of this paragraph are satisfied. On
any Interest Payment Date on which the Trustee pays less than all of the Carry-
Over Amount (and any interest accrued thereon) with respect to a Series 2000-1
Note, the Trustee shall give written notice in the manner set forth in the
immediately preceding paragraph to the Holder of such Series 2000-1 Note of the
Carry- Over Amount remaining unpaid on such Series 2000-1 Note.

          The Interest Payment Date on which any Carry-Over Amount (or any
interest accrued thereon) for a series of Series 2000-1 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 Account from which, it pays interest on the Series 2000-1 Notes on
an Interest Payment Date.

          In the event that the Auction Agent no longer determines, or fails to
determine, when required, the Series 2000-1 Note Auction Rate with respect to a
series of Series 2000-1 Notes, or, if for any reason, such manner of
determination shall be held to be invalid or unenforceable, the Series 2000-1
Note Auction Rate for the next succeeding Interest Period (which Interest Period
shall be an Auction Period for such series of Series 2000-1 Notes) shall be the
Net Loan Rate. The Net Loan Rate with respect to each Interest Rate
Determination Date shall be determined and communicated to the Auction Agent and
the Trustee in accordance with Section 6 hereof.

          Section 4.  Determining the Series 2000-1 Note Auction Rate. By
                      -----------------------------------------------
purchasing Series 2000-1 Notes, whether in an Auction or otherwise, each
purchaser of the Series 2000-1 Notes,

                                      -17-
<PAGE>

or its Broker-Dealer, must agree and shall be deemed by such purchase to have
agreed (i) to participate in Auctions on the terms described herein, (ii) to
have its beneficial ownership of the Series 2000-1 Notes maintained at all times
in Book-Entry Form for the account of its Participant, which in turn will
maintain records of such beneficial ownership, and (iii) to authorize such
Participant to disclose to the Auction Agent such information with respect to
such beneficial ownership as the Auction Agent may request.

          So long as the ownership of a series of Series 2000-1 Notes is
maintained in Book-Entry Form by the Securities Depository, an Existing Holder
may sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of Series 2000-1 Notes of such series
only pursuant to a Bid or Sell Order placed in an Auction or otherwise sell,
transfer or dispose of Series 2000-1 Notes through a Broker-Dealer, provided
that, in the case of all transfers other than pursuant to Auctions, such
Existing Holder, its Broker-Dealer or its Participant advises the Auction Agent
of such transfer. Auctions shall be conducted on each Auction Date, if there is
an Auction Agent on such Auction Date, in the following manner (such procedures
to be applicable separately to each series of the Series 2000-1 Notes):

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

                    (A)  each Existing Holder of Series 2000-1 Notes may submit
          to a Broker- Dealer by telephone or otherwise any information as to:

                              (1)  the principal amount of Outstanding Series
                    2000-1 Notes, if any, owned by such Existing Holder which
                    such Existing Holder desires to continue to own without
                    regard to the Auction Rate for the next succeeding Auction
                    Period;

                              (2)  the principal amount of Outstanding Series
                    2000-1 Notes, if any, which such Existing Holder offers to
                    sell if the Auction Rate for the next succeeding Auction
                    Period shall be less than the rate per annum specified by
                    such Existing Holder; and/or

                              (3)  the principal amount of Outstanding Series
                    2000-1 Notes, if any, owned by such Existing Holder which
                    such Existing Holder offers to sell without regard to the
                    Auction Rate for the next succeeding Auction Period; and

                    (B)  one or more Broker-Dealers may contact Potential
          Holders to determine the principal amount of Series 2000-1 Notes which
          each Potential Holder offers to purchase, if the Auction Rate for the
          next succeeding Auction Period shall not be less than the rate per
          annum specified by such Potential Holder.

          The statement of an Existing Holder or a Potential Holder referred to
     in (A) or (B) of this paragraph (i) is herein referred to as an "Order,"
     and each Existing Holder and each

                                      -18-
<PAGE>

     Potential Holder placing an Order is herein referred to as a "Bidder"; an
     Order described in clause (A)(1) is herein referred to as a "Hold Order";
     an Order described in clauses (A)(2) and (B) is herein referred to as a
     "Bid"; and an Order described in clause (A)(3) is herein referred to as a
     "Sell Order."

          (ii) (A)  Subject to the provisions of Section 4(b) hereof, a Bid by
          an Existing Holder shall constitute an irrevocable offer to sell:

                         (1)  the principal amount of Outstanding Series 2000-1
               Notes specified in such Bid if the Auction Rate determined as
               provided in this Section 4 shall be less than the rate specified
               therein; or

                         (2)  such principal amount, or a lesser principal
               amount of Outstanding Series 2000-1 Notes to be determined as set
               forth in Section 4(d)(i)(D) hereof, if the Auction Rate
               determined as provided in this Section 4 shall be equal to the
               rate specified therein; or

                         (3)  such principal amount, or a lesser principal
               amount of Outstanding Series 2000-1 Notes to be determined as set
               forth in Section 4(d)(ii)(C) hereof, if the rate specified
               therein shall be higher than the Maximum Auction Rate and
               Sufficient Bids have not been made.

               (B)  Subject to the provisions of Section 4(b) hereof, a Sell
          Order by an Existing Holder shall constitute an irrevocable offer to
          sell:

                         (l)  the principal amount of Outstanding Series 2000-1
               Notes specified in such Sell Order; or

                         (2)  such principal amount, or a lesser principal
               amount, of Outstanding Series 2000-1 Notes set forth in Section
               4(d)(ii)(C) hereof, if Sufficient Bids have not been made.

               (C)  Subject to the provisions of Section 4(b) hereof, a Bid by a
          Potential Holder shall constitute an irrevocable offer to purchase:

                         (1)  the principal amount of Outstanding Series 2000-1
               Notes specified in such Bid if the Auction Rate determined as
               provided in this Section 4 shall be higher than the rate
               specified in such Bid; or

                         (2)  such principal amount, or a lesser principal
               amount of Outstanding Series 2000-1 Notes set forth in Section
               4(d)(i)(E) hereof, if the Auction Rate

                                      -19-
<PAGE>

               determined as provided in this Section 4 shall be equal to the
               rate specified in such Bid.

     (b)  (i) Each Broker-Dealer shall submit in writing to the Auction Agent
     prior to the Submission Deadline on each Auction Date all Orders obtained
     by such Broker-Dealer and shall specify with respect to each such Order:

               (A)  the name of the Bidder placing such Order;

               (B)  the aggregate principal amount of Series 2000-1 Notes that
          are the subject of such Order;

               (C)  to the extent that such Bidder is an Existing Holder:

                         (1)  the principal amount of Series 2000-1 Notes, if
               any, subject to any Hold Order placed by such Existing Holder;

                         (2)  the principal amount of Series 2000-1 Notes, if
               any, subject to any Bid placed by such Existing Holder and the
               rate specified in such Bid; and

                         (3)  the principal amount of Series 2000-1 Notes, if
               any, subject to any Sell Order placed by such Existing Holder;
               and

               (D)  to the extent such Bidder is a Potential Holder, the rate
          specified in such Potential Holder's Bid.

       (ii)  If any rate specified in any Bid contains more than three figures
    to the right of the decimal point, the Auction Agent shall round such rate
    up to the next higher .001%.

       (iii) If an Order or Orders covering all Outstanding Series 2000-1 Notes
    owned by an Existing Holder 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 Holder covering the principal
    amount of Outstanding Series 2000-1 Notes owned by such Existing Holder and
    not subject to an Order submitted to the Auction Agent.

       (iv)  Neither the Corporation, 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 Holder or Potential Holder.

       (v)   If any Existing Holder submits through a Broker-Dealer to the
    Auction Agent one or more Orders covering in the aggregate more than the
    principal amount of Outstanding Series

                                      -20-
<PAGE>

2000-1 Notes owned by such Existing Holder, such Orders shall be considered
valid as follows and in the following order of priority:

          (A)  All Hold Orders shall be considered valid, but only up to the
     aggregate principal amount of Outstanding Series 2000-1 Notes owned by such
     Existing Holder, and if the aggregate principal amount of Series 2000-1
     Notes subject to such Hold Orders exceeds the aggregate principal amount of
     Series 2000-1 Notes owned by such Existing Holder, the aggregate principal
     amount of Series 2000-1 Notes subject to each such Hold Order shall be
     reduced pro rata so that the aggregate principal amount of Series 2000-1
     Notes subject to such Hold Order equals the aggregate principal amount of
     Outstanding Series 2000-1 Notes owned by such Existing Holder.

          (B)       (1)  any Bid shall be considered valid up to an amount equal
          to the excess of the principal amount of Outstanding Series 2000-1
          Notes owned by such Existing Holder over the aggregate principal
          amount of Series 2000-1 Notes subject to any Hold Order referred to in
          clause (A) of this paragraph (v);

                    (2)  subject to subclause (1) of this clause (B), if more
          than one Bid with the same rate is submitted on behalf of such
          Existing Holder and the aggregate principal amount of Outstanding
          Series 2000-1 Notes subject to such Bids is greater than such excess,
          such Bids shall be considered valid up to an amount equal to such
          excess;

                    (3)  subject to subclauses (1) and (2) of this clause (B),
          if more than one Bid with different rates are submitted on behalf of
          such Existing Holder, 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

                    (4)  in any such event, the amount of Outstanding Series
          2000-1 Notes, if any, subject to Bids not valid under this clause (B)
          shall be treated as the subject of a Bid by a Potential Holder at the
          rate therein specified; and

          (C)  All Sell Orders shall be considered valid up to an amount equal
     to the excess of the principal amount of Outstanding Series 2000-1 Notes
     owned by such Existing Holder over the aggregate principal amount of Series
     2000-1 Notes subject to Hold Orders referred to in clause (A) of this
     paragraph (v) and valid Bids referred to in clause (B) of this paragraph
     (v).

     (vi) If more than one Bid for Series 2000-1 Notes is submitted on behalf of
any Potential Holder, each Bid submitted shall be a separate Bid with the rate
and principal amount therein specified.

                                      -21-
<PAGE>

          (vii)  An Existing Holder that offers to purchase additional Series
     2000-1 Notes is, for purposes of such offer, treated as a Potential Holder.

          (viii) Any Bid or Sell Order submitted by an Existing Holder covering
     an aggregate principal amount of Series 2000-1 Notes not equal to an
     Authorized Denomination shall be rejected and shall be deemed a Hold Order.
     Any Bid submitted by a Potential Holder covering an aggregate principal
     amount of Series 2000-1 Notes not equal to an Authorized Denomination shall
     be rejected.

          (ix)   Any Bid specifying a rate higher than the Maximum Auction Rate
     will (a) be treated as a Sell Order if submitted by an Existing Holder and
     (b) not be accepted if submitted by a Potential Holder.

          (x)    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.

     (c)  (i)    Not earlier than the Submission Deadline on each Auction Date,
     the Auction Agent shall assemble all valid Orders submitted or deemed
     submitted to it by the Broker- Dealers (each such Order as submitted or
     deemed submitted by a Broker-Dealer being herein referred to individually
     as a "Submitted Hold Order," a "Submitted Bid" or a "Submitted Sell Order,"
     as the case may be, or as a "Submitted Order," and collectively as
     "Submitted Hold Orders," "Submitted Bids" or "Submitted Sell Orders," as
     the case may be, or as "Submitted Orders") and shall determine:

                    (A)  the excess of the total principal amount of Outstanding
          Series 2000-1 Notes over the sum of the aggregate principal amount of
          Outstanding Series 2000- 1 Notes subject to Submitted Hold Orders
          (such excess being herein referred to as the "Available Series 2000-1
          Notes"), and

                    (B)  from the Submitted Orders whether:

                              (1)  the aggregate principal amount of Outstanding
                    Series 2000-1 Notes subject to Submitted Bids by Potential
                    Holders specifying one or more rates equal to or lower than
                    the Maximum Auction Rate;

          exceeds or is equal to the sum of:

                              (2)  the aggregate principal amount of Outstanding
                    Series 2000-1 Notes subject to Submitted Bids by Existing
                    Holders specifying one or more rates higher than the Maximum
                    Auction Rate; and

                                      -22-
<PAGE>

                              (3)  the aggregate principal amount of Outstanding
                    Series 2000-1 Notes subject to Submitted Sell Orders;

          (in the event such excess or such equality exists, other than because
          all of the Outstanding Series 2000-1 Notes are subject to Submitted
          Hold Orders, such Submitted Bids described in subclause (1) above
          shall be referred to collectively as "Sufficient Bids"); and

                    (C)  if Sufficient Bids exist, the Bid Auction Rate, which
          shall be the lowest rate specified in such Submitted Bids such that
          if:

                              (1)  (x) each such Submitted Bid from Existing
                    Holders specifying such lowest rate and (y) all other
                    Submitted Bids from Existing Holders specifying lower rates
                    were rejected, thus entitling such Existing Holders to
                    continue to own the principal amount of Series 2000-1 Notes
                    subject to such Submitted Bids; and

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

          the result would be that such Existing Holders described in subclause
          (1) above would continue to own an aggregate principal amount of
          Outstanding Series 2000-1 Notes which, when added to the aggregate
          principal amount of Outstanding Series 2000-1 Notes to be purchased by
          such Potential Holders described in subclause (2) above, would equal
          not less than the Available Series 2000-1 Notes.

          (ii) Promptly after the Auction Agent has made the determinations
     pursuant to Section 4(c)(i) hereof, the Auction Agent shall advise the
     Trustee, the Broker-Dealers and the Corporation of the Net Loan Rate, the
     Maximum Auction Rate and the All Hold Rate and the components thereof on
     the Auction Date and, based on such determinations, the Auction Rate for
     the next succeeding Interest Period as follows:

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

                    (B)  if Sufficient Bids do not exist (other than because all
          of the Outstanding Series 2000-1 Notes are subject to Submitted Hold
          Orders), that the Auction Rate for the next succeeding Interest Period
          shall be equal to the Maximum Auction Rate; or

                                      -23-
<PAGE>

                    (C)  if all Outstanding Series 2000-1 Notes are subject to
          Submitted Hold Orders, that the Auction Rate for the next succeeding
          Interest Period shall be equal to the All Hold Rate.

          (iii) Promptly after the Auction Agent has determined the Auction
     Rate, the Auction Agent shall determine and advise the Trustee of the
     Series 2000-1 Note Auction Rate, which rate shall be the lesser of (a) the
     Auction Rate and (b) the Net Loan Rate; provided, however, that in no event
     shall the Series 2000-1 Note Auction Rate exceed the Series 2000-1 Note
     Auction Rate Limitation.

     (d)  Existing Holders shall continue to own the principal amount of Series
2000-1 Notes that are subject to Submitted Hold Orders. If Sufficient Bids have
been received by the Auction Agent, the Bid Auction Rate will be the Auction
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 (i).

     If the Auction Agent has not received Sufficient Bids (other than because
all of the Outstanding Series 2000-1 Notes are subject to Submitted Hold
Orders), the Auction Rate will be the Maximum Auction Rate, and Submitted Orders
will be accepted or rejected and the Auction Agent will take such other action
as described below in subparagraph (ii).

          (i)   if Sufficient Bids have been made, all Submitted Sell Orders
     shall be accepted and, subject to the provisions of paragraphs (iv) and (v)
     of this Section 4(d), Submitted Bids shall be accepted or rejected as
     follows in the following order of priority, and all other Submitted Bids
     shall be rejected:

                    (A)  Existing Holders' Submitted Bids specifying any rate
          that is higher than the Bid Auction Rate shall be accepted, thus
          requiring each such Existing Holder to sell the aggregate principal
          amount of Series 2000-1 Notes subject to such Submitted Bids;

                    (B)  Existing Holders' Submitted Bids specifying any rate
          that is lower than the Bid Auction Rate shall be rejected, thus
          entitling each such Existing Holder to continue to own the aggregate
          principal amount of Series 2000-1 Notes subject to such Submitted
          Bids;

                    (C)  Potential Holders' Submitted Bids specifying any rate
          that is lower than the Bid Auction Rate shall be accepted;

                    (D)  Each Existing Holders' Submitted Bid specifying a rate
          that is equal to the Bid Auction Rate shall be rejected, thus
          entitling such Existing Holder to continue to own the aggregate
          principal amount of Series 2000-1 Notes subject to such Submitted Bid,
          unless the aggregate principal amount of Outstanding Series 2000-1
          Notes subject to all such Submitted Bids shall be greater than the
          principal amount of Series 2000-1

                                      -24-
<PAGE>

          Notes (the "remaining principal amount") equal to the excess of the
          Available Series 2000-1 Notes over the aggregate principal amount of
          Series 2000-1 Notes subject to Submitted Bids described in clauses (B)
          and (C) of this Section 4(d)(i), in which event such Submitted Bid of
          such Existing Holder shall be rejected in part, and such Existing
          Holder shall be entitled to continue to own the principal amount of
          Series 2000-1 Notes subject to such Submitted Bid, but only in an
          amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of Series 2000-1 Notes
          obtained by multiplying the remaining principal amount by a fraction,
          the numerator of which shall be the principal amount of Outstanding
          Series 2000-1 Notes owned by such Existing Holder subject to such
          Submitted Bid and the denominator of which shall be the sum of the
          principal amount of Outstanding Series 2000-1 Notes subject to such
          Submitted Bids made by all such Existing Holders that specified a rate
          equal to the Bid Auction Rate; and

                    (E)  Each Potential Holder's Submitted Bid specifying a rate
          that is equal to the Bid Auction Rate shall be accepted, but only in
          an amount equal to the principal amount of Series 2000-1 Notes
          obtained by multiplying the excess of the aggregate principal amount
          of Available Series 2000-1 Notes over the aggregate principal amount
          of Series 2000-1 Notes subject to Submitted Bids described in clauses
          (B), (C) and (D) of this Section 4(d)(i) by a fraction the numerator
          of which shall be the aggregate principal amount of Outstanding Series
          2000-1 Notes subject to such Submitted Bid and the denominator of
          which shall be the sum of the principal amount of Outstanding Series
          2000-1 Notes subject to Submitted Bids made by all such Potential
          Holders that specified a rate equal to the Bid Auction Rate.

          (ii) If Sufficient Bids have not been made (other than because all of
     the Outstanding Series 2000-1 Notes are subject to Submitted Hold Orders),
     subject to the provisions of Section 4(d)(iv) hereof, Submitted Orders
     shall be accepted or rejected as follows in the following order of priority
     and all other Submitted Bids shall be rejected:

                    (A)  Existing Holders' Submitted Bids specifying any rate
          that is equal to or lower than the Maximum Auction Rate shall be
          rejected, thus entitling such Existing Holders to continue to own the
          aggregate principal amount of Series 2000-1 Notes subject to such
          Submitted Bids;

                    (B)  Potential Holders' Submitted Bids specifying (1) any
          rate that is equal to or lower than the Maximum Auction Rate shall be
          accepted and (2) any rate that is higher than the Maximum Auction Rate
          shall be rejected; and

                    (C)  each Existing Holder's Submitted Bid specifying any
          rate that is higher than the Maximum Auction Rate and the Submitted
          Sell Order of each Existing Holder shall be accepted, thus entitling
          each Existing Holder that submitted any such Submitted Bid or
          Submitted Sell Order to sell the Series 2000-1 Notes subject to such
          Submitted Bid

                                      -25-

          or Submitted Sell Order, but in both cases only in an amount equal to
          the aggregate principal amount of Series 2000-1 Notes obtained by
          multiplying the aggregate principal amount of Series 2000-1 Notes
          subject to Submitted Bids described in clause (B)(1) of this Section
          4(d)(ii) by a fraction the numerator of which shall be the aggregate
          principal amount of Outstanding Series 2000-1 Notes owned by such
          Existing Holder subject to such Submitted Bid or Submitted Sell Order
          and the denominator of which shall be the aggregate principal amount
          of Outstanding Series 2000-1 Notes subject to all such Submitted Bids
          and Submitted Sell Orders.

          (iii) If all Outstanding Series 2000-1 Notes are subject to Submitted
     Hold Orders, all Submitted Bids shall be rejected.

          (iv)  If, as a result of the procedures described in paragraph (i) or
     (ii) of this Section 4(d), any Existing Holder would be entitled or
     required to sell, or any Potential Holder would be entitled or required to
     purchase, a principal amount of Series 2000-1 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 Series 2000-1 Notes to be purchased or sold by any Existing Holder or
     Potential Holder so that the principal amount of Series 2000-1 Notes
     purchased or sold by each Existing Holder or Potential Holder shall be
     equal to an Authorized Denomination.

          (v)   If, as a result of the procedures described in paragraph (i) of
     this Section 4(d), any Potential Holder would be entitled or required to
     purchase less than an Authorized Denomination of Series 2000-1 Notes, the
     Auction Agent shall, in such manner as in its sole discretion it shall
     determine, allocate Series 2000-1 Notes for purchase among Potential
     Holders so that only Series 2000-1 Notes in Authorized Denominations are
     purchased by any Potential Holder, even if such allocation results in one
     or more of such Potential Holders not purchasing any Series 2000-1 Notes.

     (e)  Based on the result of each Auction, the Auction Agent shall determine
the aggregate principal amount of Series 2000-1 Notes to be purchased and the
aggregate principal amount of Series 2000-1 Notes to be sold by Potential
Holders and Existing Holders 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 Series 2000-1 Notes to be sold differs from such
aggregate principal amount of Series 2000-1 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, Series 2000-1 Notes.

     (f)  Any calculation by the Auction Agent, the Corporation or the Trustee,
as applicable, of the Series 2000-1 Note Auction Rate, One-Month LIBOR, Three-
Month LIBOR, Maximum Auction

Rate, All Hold Rate and Non-Payment Rate, and any calculation by or on behalf of
the Corporation of the Net Loan Rate, shall, in the absence of manifest error,
be binding on all other parties.

     (g)  Notwithstanding anything in this Second Supplemental Indenture to the
contrary notwithstanding, no Auction will be held on any Auction Date hereunder
during the continuance of a Payment Default.

                        --------------------------------------------------------
Agent and Broker-Dealer Fees.
----------------------------

            (a)  The Trustee shall determine, not later than 2:00 p.m., New York
City time, on the Business Day next succeeding each Interest Payment Date
relating to a series of Series 2000-1 Notes, whether a Payment Default has
occurred with respect to such series. If a Payment Default has occurred, the
Trustee shall, not later than 2:15 p.m., New York City time, on such Business
Day, send a notice thereof in substantially the form of Exhibit C attached
hereto to the Auction Agent by telecopy or similar means and, if such Payment
Default is cured, the Trustee shall immediately send a notice in substantially
the form of Exhibit D attached hereto to the Auction Agent by telecopy or
similar means.

            (b)  Not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, on each Interest
Payment Date relating to a series of Series 2000-1 Notes, the Corporation shall
pay to the Auction Agent, in immediately available funds out of amounts
available therefor in the Administration Fund, an amount equal to the Auction
Agent Fee and the Broker-Dealer Fee as calculated in accordance with the Auction
Agent Agreement. The Corporation shall, from time to time at the request of the
Auction Agent, reimburse the Auction Agent for its reasonable expenses as
provided in the Auction Agent Agreement, such expenses to be paid out of amounts
available therefor in the Administration Fund.

                        ---------------------------------------------------
Net Loan Rate, One-Month LIBOR, Three-Month LIBOR and Non-Payment Rate. The
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Auction Agent shall calculate the Maximum Auction Rate, the All Hold Rate and
One-Month LIBOR or Three- Month LIBOR, as the case may be, on each Auction Date
and shall notify the Trustee and the Broker-Dealers of the Maximum Auction Rate,
the All Hold Rate and One-Month LIBOR or Three-Month LIBOR, as the case may be,
as provided in the Auction Agent Agreement. If the ownership of the Series
2000-1 Notes is no longer maintained in Book-Entry Form by the Securities
Depository, the Trustee shall calculate the Maximum Auction Rate on the Business
Day immediately preceding each Interest Payment Date after the delivery of
definitive Series 2000-1 Notes pursuant to Section 17 hereof. 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 Period commencing
after the occurrence and during the continuance of such Payment Default and (ii)
any Interest Period commencing less than two Business Days after the cure of any
Payment Default. The Auction Agent shall determine One-Month LIBOR or Three-
Month LIBOR, as applicable, for each Interest Period other than the first
Interest Period; provided that if the ownership of the Series 2000-1 Notes is no
longer maintained in Book-Entry Form, or if a Payment Default has occurred, then
the Trustee shall determine One-Month LIBOR or Three-

                                      -27-
<PAGE>

Month LIBOR, as applicable, for each such Interest Period. The determination by
the Trustee or the Auction Agent, as the case may be, of One-Month LIBOR or
Three-Month LIBOR, as applicable, 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 One-Month LIBOR or
Three-Month LIBOR, as applicable.

            The Net Loan Rate with respect to each Interest Rate Determination
Date shall be determined by or on behalf of the Corporation and written notice
thereof given to the Auction Agent and the Trustee on or prior to the twenty-
fifth day (or, if such twenty-fifth day is not a Business Day, the next
succeeding Business Day) of the calendar month preceding such Interest Rate
Determination Date. If the Corporation shall fail or refuse to determine the Net
Loan Rate, the Net Loan Rate shall be the Net Loan Rate last determined and
communicated to the Auction Agent and the Trustee in accordance with this
paragraph. The determination by or on behalf of the Corporation of the Net Loan
Rate shall (in the absence of manifest error) be final and binding upon all
parties.

            Section 7.  Notification of Rates, Amounts and Payment Dates.
                        ------------------------------------------------

            (a)   By 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on each Regular Record
Date with respect to the Series 2000-1 Notes, the Trustee shall determine the
aggregate amounts of interest distributable on the next succeeding Interest
Payment Date to the beneficial owners of each series thereof.

            (b)   As soon as practicable prior to each Interest Payment Date
with respect to the Series 2000-1 Notes, the Trustee shall:

            (i)   confirm with the Auction Agent, so long as no Payment Default
     has occurred and is continuing and the ownership of each series of Series
     2000-1 Notes is maintained in Book-Entry Form by the Securities Depository,
     (1) the date of such next Interest Payment Date and (2) the amount payable
     to the Auction Agent on such Interest Payment Date pursuant to Section 5(b)
     hereof;

            (ii)  pursuant to Section 3 hereof, advise the Holders of each
     series of Series 2000- 1 Notes of any Carry-Over Amount accruing on such
     Series 2000-1 Notes; and

            (iii) advise the Securities Depository, so long as the ownership of
     each series of Series 2000-1 Notes is maintained in Book-Entry Form by the
     Securities Depository, upon request, of the Series 2000-1 Note Interest
     Rate payable on such series of Series 2000-1 Notes and the interest amount.

            If any day scheduled to be an Interest Payment Date with respect to
a series of Series 2000-1 Notes shall be changed after the Trustee shall have
given the notice or confirmation referred to in clause (i) of the preceding
sentence, the Trustee shall, not later than 9:15 a.m., New York City time, on
the Business Day next preceding the earlier of the new Interest Payment Date or
the old Interest

such change to the Auction Agent, so long as no Payment Default has occurred and
is continuing and the ownership of the Series 2000-1 Notes is maintained in
Book-Entry Form by the Securities Depository.

          Section 8.  Auction Agent.
                      -------------

          (a)  Bankers Trust Company is hereby appointed as Initial Auction
Agent to serve as agent for the Corporation in connection with Auctions. The
Trustee and the Corporation will, and the Trustee is hereby directed to, enter
into the Initial Auction Agent Agreement with Bankers Trust Company, as the
Initial Auction Agent. Any Substitute Auction Agent shall be (i) 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 (ii) 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 Second Supplemental Indenture by giving at least ninety (90)
days' notice to the Trustee, the Market Agent and the Corporation. The Auction
Agent may be removed at any time by the Trustee upon the written direction of an
Authorized Officer of the Corporation or the Holders of 66-2/3% of the aggregate
principal amount of the Series 2000-1 Senior Notes then Outstanding (or, if no
Series 2000-1 Senior Notes are then Outstanding, the Holders of 66-2/3% of the
aggregate principal amount of the Series 2000-1C Notes then Outstanding), and,
if by such Holders, by an instrument signed by such Holders or their attorneys
and filed with the Auction Agent, the Corporation and the Trustee upon at least
ninety (90) days' notice. Neither resignation nor removal of the Auction Agent
pursuant to the preceding two sentences shall be effective unless and until a
Substitute Auction Agent has been appointed and has accepted such appointment.
However, if a successor Auction Agent shall not have been appointed within sixty
(60) days from the date of a notice of resignation, the resigning Auction Agent
may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a
successor Auction Agent. If required by the Corporation, 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 twenty-five (25) days after notifying the Trustee, the
Market Agent and the Corporation 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.

          (b)  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 Trustee at the direction
of an Authorized Officer of the Corporation, shall use its best efforts to
appoint a Substitute Auction Agent.

          (c)  The Auction Agent is acting as agent for the Corporation in
connection with Auctions. In the absence of bad faith, negligent failure to act
or negligence on its part, the Auction Agent shall not be liable for any action
taken, suffered or omitted or any error of judgment made by it in the
performance of its duties under the Auction Agent Agreement and shall not be
liable for any error of judgment made in good faith unless the Auction Agent
shall have been negligent in ascertaining (or failing to ascertain) the
pertinent facts.

          (d)  In the event of a change in the Auction Agent Fee Rate pursuant
to Section 6.4(b) of the Auction Agent Agreement, the Auction Agent shall give a
Notice of Fee Rate Change to the Trustee in accordance with the Auction Agent
Agreement.

          Section 9.  Broker-Dealers.
                      --------------

          (a)  The Auction Agent will enter into a Broker-Dealer Agreement with
Salomon Smith Barney Inc., as the sole initial Broker-Dealer with respect to the
Series 2000-1 Notes. An Authorized Officer of the Corporation 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; provided, however, that
while Salomon Smith Barney Inc. is serving as a Broker-Dealer with respect to a
series of the Series 2000-1 Notes, Salomon Smith Barney Inc. shall have the
right to consent to the approval of any additional Broker-Dealers with respect
to such series, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld.

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

          Section 10.  Changes in Auction Period or Periods.
                       ------------------------------------

          (a)  While any of the Series 2000-1 Notes are Outstanding, the
Corporation may, from time to time, convert the length of one or more Auction
Periods (an "Auction Period Adjustment"), in order to conform with then current
market practice with respect to similar securities or to accommodate economic
and financial factors that may affect or be relevant to the length of the
Auction Period and the Series 2000-1 Note Interest Rate borne by the Series
2000-1 Notes. The Corporation shall not initiate an Auction Period Adjustment
unless it shall have received, not less than three (3) days nor more than twenty
(20) days prior to the Auction Period Adjustment, (i) the written consent of the
Market Agent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld and (ii) written
confirmation from each of the Rating Agencies then rating the Series 2000-1
Notes that such Auction Period Adjustment will not adversely affect its ratings
then applicable to any of the Series 2000-1 Notes. The Corporation shall
initiate the Auction Period Adjustment by giving written notice by Corporation
Order to the Trustee, the Auction Agent, the Market Agent and the Securities
Depository in substantially the form of, or containing substantially the
information contained in, Exhibit E to this Second Supplemental Indenture at
least ten (10) days prior to the Auction Date for such Auction Period.

          (b)  Any such adjusted Auction Period shall not be less than seven (7)
days nor more than ninety-one (91) days. If any such adjusted Auction Period
will be less than twenty- eight (28) days, the notice described above will be
effective only if it is accompanied by a written statement of the Trustee, the
Auction Agent and the Securities Depository to the effect that they are capable
of performing their duties, if any, under this Second Supplemental Indenture,
the Auction Agent Agreement and any Broker-Dealer Agreement with respect to such
changed Auction Period.

          (c)  An Auction Period Adjustment shall take effect only (A) if the
Trustee and the Auction Agent receive, by 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the
Business Day before the Auction Date for the first such Auction Period, a
Corporation Certificate in substantially the form attached as, or containing
substantially the same information contained in, Exhibit F to this Second
Supplemental Indenture, authorizing the Auction Period Adjustment specified in
such certificate along with a copy of the consent of the Market Agent and the
Rating Agency confirmations described in subparagraph (a) above and, if
applicable, the written statement of the Trustee, the Auction Agent and the
Securities Depository described in subparagraph (b) above, and (B) Sufficient
Bids exist as of the Auction on the Auction Date for such first Auction Period.
If the condition referred to in (A) above is not met, the Series 2000-1 Note
Interest Rate for the next Auction Period shall be determined pursuant to the
provisions of Sections 4 through 9 hereof and the Auction Period shall be the
Auction Period determined without reference to the proposed change. If the
condition referred to in (A) is met but the condition referred in (B) above is
not met, the Series 2000-1 Note Auction Rate for the next Auction Period shall
be the lesser of the Maximum Auction Rate and the Net Loan 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 2.5
of the Auction Agent Agreement.

          Section 11. Changes in the Auction Date. The Market Agent, with the
                      ---------------------------
written consent of an Authorized Officer of the Corporation, 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 of this Second Supplemental Indenture
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 Series 2000-1 Note Interest
Rate borne by the Series 2000-1 Notes. The Market Agent shall deliver a written
request for consent to such change in the Auction Date to the Corporation not
less than three days nor more than twenty (20) days prior to the effective date
of such change. The Market Agent 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 ten (10) days prior to the proposed changed
Auction Date to the Trustee, the Auction Agent, the Corporation and the
Securities Depository. Such notice shall be substantially in the form of, or
contain substantially the information contained in, Exhibit G to this Second
Supplemental Indenture.

          In connection with any change described in this Section 11, the
Auction Agent shall provide such further notice to such parties as is specified
in Section 2.5 of the Auction Agent Agreement.

          Section 12. Additional Provisions Regarding the Series 2000-1 Note
                      ------------------------------------------------------
Interest Rate. The determination of a Series 2000-1 Note Interest Rate by the
-------------
Auction Agent or any other Person pursuant to the provisions of the applicable
Section of this Second Supplemental Indenture shall be conclusive and binding on
the Holders of the series of Series 2000-1 Notes to which such Series 2000-1
Note Interest Rate applies, and the Corporation and the Trustee may rely thereon
for all purposes.

          In no event shall the cumulative amount of interest paid or payable on
a series of Series 2000-1 Notes (including interest calculated as provided
herein, plus any other amounts that constitute interest on the Series 2000-1
Notes of such series under applicable law, which are contracted for, charged,
reserved, taken or received pursuant to the Series 2000-1 Notes of such series
or related documents) calculated from the date of issuance of such series
through any subsequent day during the term of such series or otherwise prior to
payment in full of the Series 2000-1 Notes of such series 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 Series
2000-1 Notes of a series or related documents or otherwise contracted for,
charged, reserved, taken or received in connection with the Series 2000-1 Notes
of such series, or if the redemption or acceleration of the maturity of the
Series 2000-1 Notes of such series results in payment to or receipt by the
Holder or any former Holder of the Series 2000-1 Notes of such series of any
interest in excess of that permitted by applicable law, then, notwithstanding
any provision of the Series 2000-1 Notes of such series or related documents to
the contrary, all excess amounts theretofore paid or received with respect to
the Series 2000-1 Notes of such series shall be credited on the principal
balance of the Series 2000-1 Notes of such series (or, if

                                      -32-
<PAGE>

the Series 2000- 1 Notes of such series have been paid or would thereby be paid
in full, refunded by the recipient thereof), and the provisions of the Series
2000-1 Notes of such series 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 Series 2000-1
Notes of such series and under the related documents.

          Section 13. Qualifications of Market Agent. The Market Agent shall be
                      ------------------------------
a member of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc., have a
capitalization of at least $50,000,000 and be authorized by law to perform all
the duties imposed upon it by this Second Supplemental Indenture. The Market
Agent may resign and be discharged of the duties and obligations created by this
Second Supplemental Indenture by giving at least thirty (30) days notice to the
Corporation and the Trustee, provided that such resignation shall not be
effective until the appointment of a successor market agent by the Corporation
and the acceptance of such appointment by such successor market agent. The
Market Agent may be replaced at the direction of the Corporation, by an
instrument signed by an Authorized Officer of the Corporation filed with the
Market Agent and the Trustee at least thirty (30) days before the effective date
of such replacement, provided that such replacement shall not be effective until
the appointment of a successor market agent by the Corporation and the
acceptance of such appointment by such successor market agent.

          In the event that the Market Agent shall be removed or be dissolved,
or if the property or affairs of the Market 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, and there is no Market Agent,
and the Corporation shall not have appointed its successor as Market Agent, the
Trustee, notwithstanding the provisions of the first paragraph of this Section
13, shall be deemed to be the Market Agent for all purposes of this Second
Supplemental Indenture until the appointment by the Corporation of the successor
Market Agent. Nothing in this Section 13 shall be construed as conferring on the
Trustee additional duties other than as set forth herein.

          Section 14. Purposes of Issuance of Series 2000-1 Notes. The Series
                      -------------------------------------------
2000-1 Notes are being issued to provide funds to be used to (a) acquire student
loan notes incurred under the Higher Education Act and under the Alternative
Loan Programs, (b) fund the Reserve Fund, (c) pay a portion of the interest
coming due on the Series 2000-1 Notes and (d) pay Costs of Issuance of the
Series 2000-1 Notes.

          Section 15. Deposit of Series 2000-1 Note Proceeds. From the proceeds
                      --------------------------------------

the Trustee:

          (1)  for credit to the Series 2000-1 Reserve Account, an amount equal
     to $1,953,000; and

                                      -33-

          (2)  for credit to the Series 2000-1 Capitalized Interest Account, an
     amount equal to $232,000;

          (3)  for credit to the Series 2000-1 Cost of Issuance Account, an
     amount equal to $380,000;

          (4)  for credit to the Series 2000-1 Acquisition Account, the
     remainder , to remain in the Series 2000-1 Acquisition Account until
     applied for the acquisition or origination of Eligible Loans, including the
     acquisition of Eligible Loans pursuant to the Series 2000- 1 Transfer
     Agreement (which Eligible Loans were either originated by GOAL Funding or
     purchased by GOAL Funding pursuant to the Student Loan Purchase Agreements
     identified in Exhibit H-2 hereto) and pursuant to the Student Loan Purchase
     Agreements identified in Exhibit H-1 hereto (as such Exhibit H-1 may be
     amended or supplemented from time to time).

          Upon the acquisition of Eligible Loans pursuant to the Series 2000-1
Transfer Agreement, the Trustee shall deposit to the credit of the Series 2000-1
Alternative Loan Guarantee Account cash in the amount of $537,541.64 received
from the trustee for GOAL Funding in connection with such acquisition.
Thereafter, upon the acquisition of any Alternative Loan with amounts from the
Series 2000-1 Acquisition Account or the Series 2000-1 Surplus Account, the
Trustee shall, as a condition of such acquisition, receive and deposit to the
credit of the Series 2000-1 Alternative Loan Guarantee Account cash in the
amount of the origination fee, if any, paid in connection with the origination
of such Alternative Loan.

          Section 16. Redemption of Series 2000-1 Notes. The Series 2000-1 Notes
                      ---------------------------------
are subject to redemption as provided in this Section 16.

          (A)  Redemption From Unexpended Proceeds. Subject to compliance with
               -----------------------------------
Section 10.2 of the Indenture, Outstanding Series 2000-1 Notes shall be
redeemed, in part, on the first regularly scheduled Interest Payment Date
occurring after April 2, 2001, for which notice can be given in accordance with
subsection (E) of this Section 16, at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the
principal amount of Series 2000-1 Notes so redeemed, from proceeds of the Series
2000-1 Notes constituting that portion of the Balance of the Series 2000-1
Acquisition Account that have not been used to acquire Eligible Loans by April
2, 2001, and from that portion of the Reserve Fund which, if left in the Reserve
Fund upon such redemption, would cause the Balance in the Reserve Fund to exceed
the Reserve Fund Requirement, calculated after giving effect to such redemption.
The Trustee shall transfer any such moneys to the credit of the Series 2000-1
Retirement Subaccount for such purpose without any further authorization or
direction.

          (B)  Redemption from Surplus Account. Subject to compliance with
               -------------------------------
Section 10.2 of the Indenture, Outstanding Series 2000-1 Notes shall be redeemed
on any regularly scheduled Interest Payment Date with respect thereto, in whole
or in part, at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof
to be redeemed, from that portion of the Balance of the Series 2000-1 Surplus

                                      -34-
<PAGE>

Subaccount transferred to the Series 2000-1 Retirement Account in accordance
with this subsection (B). If there any amounts in the Series 2000-1 Surplus
Subaccount which have been on deposit therein for at least twelve (12) months
and have not been used to acquire Student Loans, and if there are no
deficiencies in any of the Indemnification Fund, the Note Fund, the Reserve Fund
or the Special Redemption and Prepayment Account, the Trustee shall give written
notice to the Corporation that such moneys will be transferred to the Series
2000-1 Retirement Account and applied to the redemption of Series 2000-1 Notes
in accordance with this subsection (B) unless the Corporation, within ten (10)
Business Days of receipt of such notice, delivers to the Trustee a Corporation
Certificate to the effect that some or all of such amounts are reasonably
expected to be necessary to pay Debt Service on the Outstanding Notes or on
Outstanding Other Obligations, Carry-Over Amounts, including accrued interest
thereon, with respect to Outstanding Notes, Administrative Expenses or Note Fees
or to make required deposits to the Indemnification Fund. Any amounts so
certified by the Corporation will remain in the Series 2000-1 Surplus Subaccount
and will not be applied to the redemption of Series 2000-1 Notes pursuant to
this subsection (B).

          (C)  Optional Redemption. Subject to compliance with Section 10.2 of
               -------------------
the Indenture, Outstanding Series 2000-1 Notes may, at the option of the
Corporation and from amounts credited to the Retirement Account for such
purpose, be redeemed on any regularly scheduled Interest Payment Date with
respect thereto, in whole or in part, at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the
principal amount of Series 2000-1 Notes to be so redeemed.

          Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Series 2000-1 Notes shall be
redeemed pursuant to this subsection (C) unless the Trustee receives, at least
forty-five (45) days prior to the proposed Redemption Date (unless a shorter
notice is satisfactory to the Trustee), a Corporation Certificate certifying
that, based on a Cash Flow Projection, such redemption of such Series 2000-1
Notes will not materially adversely affect the Corporation's ability to pay Debt
Service on the Outstanding Notes and Outstanding Other Obligations, Carry-Over
Amounts (including accrued interest thereon) with respect to Outstanding Notes,
Administrative Expenses or Note Fees or to make required deposits to the
Indemnification Fund.

          (D)  Selection of Series 2000-1 Notes for Redemption. If less than all
               -----------------------------------------------
Outstanding Series 2000-1 Notes are to be redeemed pursuant to subsections (A),
(B) or (C) of this Section 16, the principal amounts of each series of Series
2000-1 Notes to be redeemed shall be selected as follows: to the extent that the
provisions of Section 10.2 of the Indenture will not be violated thereby, either
(i) that principal amount of Series 2000-1C Notes shall be redeemed which bears,
as nearly as practicable, the same (but no greater) proportion to the aggregate
principal amount of all Outstanding Series 2000-1 Notes to be redeemed as the
aggregate principal amount of Outstanding Series 2000-1C Notes bears to the
aggregate principal amount of all Outstanding Series 2000-1 Notes or (ii) if the
Trustee receives, at least forty-five (45) days prior to the Redemption Date
(unless a shorter notice is satisfactory to the Trustee), a Corporation
Certificate certifying that, based on a Cash Flow Projection, a different
proportion of Series 2000-1C Notes to be redeemed will not materially adversely
affect the Corporation's ability to pay Debt Service on the Outstanding Notes
and on Outstanding Other

                                      -35-
<PAGE>

Obligations, Carry-Over Amounts (including accrued interest thereon) with
respect to Outstanding Notes, Administrative Expenses or Note Fees or to make
required deposits to the Indemnification Fund, Series 2000-1C Notes shall be
redeemed in such principal amount as is designated by the Corporation in such
certificate. The remaining Series 2000-1 Notes to be redeemed shall be selected
from each series of the Series 2000-1 Senior Notes in, as nearly as practicable,
the same proportion to the aggregate principal amount of all Outstanding Series
2000-1 Senior Notes to be redeemed as the aggregate principal amount of
Outstanding Series 2000-1 Senior Notes of such series bears to the aggregate
principal amount of all Outstanding Series 2000-1 Senior Notes.

          Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 16, to the
extent Series 2000-1C Notes cannot be redeemed due to the application of Section
10.2 of the Indenture, but Series 2000-1 Senior Notes may be redeemed without
violating the provisions of said Section 10.2, the particular Series 2000-1
Notes to be redeemed shall be selected from the Series 2000-1 Senior Notes in
the manner described in the preceding paragraph.

          If less than all of the Outstanding Series 2000-1 Notes of a given
series are to be redeemed pursuant to this Section 16, the particular Series
2000-1 Notes to be redeemed shall be selected by the Trustee by lot in such
manner as the Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate and which may provide for
the selection for redemption of portions of the principal of Series 2000-1 Notes
in an Authorized Denomination.

          The Trustee shall promptly notify the Note Registrar and any Paying
Agent for the Series 2000-1 Notes (in each case, if other than the Trustee) in
writing of the Series 2000-1 Notes selected for redemption and, in the case of
any Series 2000-1 Note selected for partial redemption, the principal amount
thereof to be redeemed.

          For all purposes of the Indenture, unless the context otherwise
requires, all provisions relating to the redemption of Series 2000-1 Notes shall
relate, in the case of any Series 2000-1 Note redeemed or to be redeemed only in
part, to the portion of the principal of such Series 2000-1 Note which has been
or is to be redeemed.

          (E)  Notice of Redemption. Notice of redemption of Series 2000-1 Notes
               --------------------
pursuant to this Section 16 shall be given not less than fifteen (15) days prior
to the Redemption Date in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.4 of the
Indenture.

          Section 17.  Book-Entry Series 2000-1 Notes. (a) The registered
                       ------------------------------
Holder of all Series 2000-1 Notes shall be the Securities Depository and the
Series 2000-1 Notes shall be registered in the name of the nominee for the
Securities Depository. The "Series 2000-1 Notes" referred to in this subsection
(a) shall refer to the Series 2000-1 Notes registered in the name of the
Securities Depository.

                                      -36-
<PAGE>

          (b)  The Series 2000-1 Notes shall be initially issued in the form of
separate, single, authenticated fully-registered Series 2000-1 Notes for each
series thereof in the amount of such series. Upon initial issuance, the
ownership of each such Series 2000-1 Note shall be registered in the
registration books kept by the Note Registrar in the name of the nominee of the
Securities Depository. The Trustee and the Corporation may treat the Securities
Depository (or its nominee) as the sole and exclusive owner of the Series 2000-1
Notes registered in its name for the purposes of (1) payment of the principal or
Redemption Price of, interest on or Carry-Over Amount (including any accrued
interest thereon) with respect to the Series 2000-1 Notes, (2) selecting the
Series 2000-1 Notes or portions thereof to be redeemed, (3) giving any notice
permitted or required to be given to Holders under the Indenture, (4)
registering the transfer of Series 2000-1 Notes, and (5) obtaining any consent
or other action to be taken by Holders and for all other purposes whatsoever,
and neither the Trustee nor the Corporation shall be affected by any notice to
the contrary (except as provided in subsection (c) below). Neither the Trustee
nor the Corporation shall have any responsibility or obligation to any
Participant, any Beneficial Owner or any other Person claiming a beneficial
ownership interest in the Series 2000-1 Notes under or through the Securities
Depository or any Participant, or any other Person which is not shown on the
registration books of the Note Registrar as being a Holder, with respect to the
accuracy of any records maintained by the Securities Depository or any
Participant, the payment to the Securities Depository of any amount in respect
of the principal or Redemption Price of, interest on or Carry-Over Amount
(including any accrued interest thereon) with respect to the Series 2000-1
Notes; any notice which is permitted or required to be given to Holders under
the Indenture; the selection by the Securities Depository or any Participant of
any Person to receive payment in the event of a partial redemption of the Series
2000-1 Notes; or any consent given or other action taken by the Securities
Depository as Holder. The Trustee shall pay all principal and Redemption Price
of, interest on and Carry-Over Amount (including any accrued interest thereon)
with respect to the Series 2000-1 Notes only "to or upon the order of" the
Securities Depository (as that phrase is used in the Uniform Commercial Code as
adopted in the State of South Dakota), and all such payments shall be valid and
effective to fully satisfy and discharge the Corporation's obligations with
respect to the principal, purchase price or Redemption Price of, interest on and
Carry-Over Amount (including any accrued interest thereon) with respect to the
Series 2000-1 Notes to the extent of the sum or sums so paid. Except as provided
in subsection(c) below, no Person other than the Securities Depository shall
receive an authenticated Series 2000-1 Note evidencing the obligation of the
Corporation to make payments of principal or Redemption Price, interest and
Carry-Over Amount (including any accrued interest thereon) pursuant to this
Indenture. Upon delivery by the Securities Depository to the Trustee of written
notice to the effect that the Securities Depository has determined to substitute
a new nominee in place of the preceding nominee, the Series 2000-1 Notes will be
transferable to such new nominee in accordance with subsection (f) below.

          (c)  Except with respect to any Series 2000-1 Notes during such time
as they bear interest at the Auction Rate, in the event the Corporation
determines that it is in the best interest of the Corporation not to continue
the book-entry system of transfer or that the interest of the Holders might be
adversely affected if the book-entry system of transfer is continued, the
Corporation may so notify the Securities Depository and the Trustee, whereupon
the Securities Depository will notify the

                                      -37-
<PAGE>

Participants of the availability through the Securities Depository of definitive
Series 2000-1 Notes. In such event, the Trustee shall authenticate, transfer and
exchange definitive Series 2000-1 Notes as requested by the Securities
Depository in appropriate amounts in accordance with subsection (f) below. The
Securities Depository may determine to discontinue providing its services with
respect to the Series 2000-1 Notes at any time by giving notice to the
Corporation and the Trustee and discharging its responsibilities with respect
thereto under applicable law, or the Corporation may determine that the
Securities Depository is incapable of discharging its responsibilities and may
so advise the Securities Depository. In either such event, the Corporation shall
either establish its own book-entry system or use reasonable efforts to locate
another securities depository. Under such circumstances (if there is no
successor Securities Depository), the Corporation and the Trustee shall be
obligated to deliver definitive Series 2000-1 Notes as described in this
Indenture and in accordance with subsection (f) below. In the event definitive
Series 2000-1 Notes are issued, the provisions of this Indenture shall apply to
such definitive Series 2000-1 Notes in all respects, including, among other
things, the transfer and exchange of such Series 2000-1 Notes and the method of
payment of principal or Redemption Price of, interest on and Carry-Over Amount
(including any accrued interest thereon) with respect to such Series 2000-1
Notes. Whenever the Securities Depository requests the Corporation and the
Trustee to do so, the Trustee and the Corporation will cooperate with the
Securities Depository in taking appropriate action after reasonable notice (A)
to make available one or more separate definitive Series 2000-1 Notes to any
Participant having Series 2000-1 Notes credited to its account with the
Securities Depository or (B) to arrange for another securities depository to
maintain custody of definitive Series 2000-1 Notes.

          (d)  Notwithstanding any other provision of the Indenture to the
contrary, so long as any Series 2000-1 Note is registered in the name of the
nominee of the Securities Depository, all payments with respect to the principal

Balances to the purchase or origination of all Student Loans, unless the

          The Corporation shall not agree to, or permit any Servicer to agree
to, any discount or other reduction in the yield on any Student Loan Financed
from Balances in the Series 2000-1 Acquisition Account or the Series 2000-1
Surplus Subaccount (other than any such reduction that existed at the time such
Student Loan was so Financed) if, as a result thereof, the yield on such Student
Loan would be reduced by more than .25% per annum, unless the Corporation
delivers to the Trustee (1) a Corporation Certificate certifying that, based on
a Cash Flow Projection, such reduction will not materially adversely affect the
Corporation's ability to pay Debt Service on the Outstanding Notes and on

to the Indemnification Fund, and (2) written confirmation from each Rating

the Balance in the Series 2000-1 Surplus Subaccount (A) after December 31, 2001,
(B) if such Student Loan is an Alternative Loan, unless the Corporation delivers
to the Trustee (1) a Corporation Certificate certifying that, based on a Cash
Flow Projection, the purchase or origination of such Student Loan will not
materially adversely affect the Corporation's ability to pay Debt Service on the
Outstanding Notes and on Outstanding Other Obligations, to pay Carry- Over

or to make required deposits to the Indemnification Fund, and (2) written
confirmation from each Rating Agency then rating the Series 2000-1 Notes that
the purchase or

                                      -42-
<PAGE>

origination of such Student Loan will not result in a reduction or withdrawal of
the rating of the Series 2000-1 Notes, or (C) if such Student Loan is a FFELP
Loan from a Lender located in a state outside the midwestern portion of the
United States, the Corporation delivers to the Trustee written confirmation from
each Rating Agency then rating the Series 2000-1 Notes that the purchase of such
Student Loan will not result in a reduction or withdrawal of the rating of the
Series 2000-1 Notes.

          The Corporation shall not purchase or originate any FFELP Loan from
the Balances in the Series 2000-1 Acquisition Account or the Series 2000-1
Surplus Subaccount if, as a result of an amendment to the Higher Education Act
after the date of this Second Supplemental Indenture (other than an amendment
contained in a bill currently pending in Congress and subsequently enacted into
law), such FFELP Loan bears a rate of interest that is lower than the rate of
interest such FFELP Loan would have borne under the Higher Education Act as it
currently exists, unless the Corporation delivers to the Trustee (1) a
Corporation Certificate certifying that, based on a Cash Flow Projection, the
purchase or origination of such FFELP Loan will not materially adversely affect
the Corporation's ability to pay Debt Service on the Outstanding Notes and on
Outstanding Other Obligations, to pay Carry-Over Amounts (including accrued
interest thereon) with respect to Outstanding Notes or to make required deposits
to the Indemnification Fund, and (2) written confirmation from each Rating
Agency then rating the Series 2000-1 Notes that the purchase or origination of

Series 2000- 1 Surplus Subaccount that do not constitute Eligible Loans, it
shall give written notice of such purchase to each Rating Agency then rating the
Series 2000-1 Notes.

          Any Student Loans Financed from Balances in the Series 2000-1 Surplus
Subaccount prior to April 2, 2001, and constituting Eligible Loans shall, upon
the financing thereof, be credited to, and included in the Balance of, the
Series 2000-1 Acquisition Account, and shall not be deemed to have been Financed
with moneys in the Surplus Account but to have been Financed with moneys in the
Acquisition Fund.

Outstanding Notes or to make required deposits to the Indemnification Fund and
(ii) written confirmation from each of the Rating Agencies then rating the

     and the provisions of this Indenture, each Supplemental Indenture and each
     Other Obligation are and will be valid and legally enforceable obligations
     of the Corporation in accordance with their terms and the terms of this
     Indenture and each Supplemental Indenture. The Corporation shall at all
     times, to the extent permitted by law, defend, preserve and protect the
     pledge of the Trust Estate pledged under this Indenture and each
     Supplemental Indenture and all the rights of the Beneficiaries hereto
     against all claims and demands of all Persons whomsoever.

          The pledge of the Trust Estate made hereby includes the pledge of any
     contract or any evidence of indebtedness or other rights of the Corporation
     to receive any of the same, whether now existing or hereafter coming into
     existence, and whether now or hereafter acquired, and the proceeds thereof.

     subordinate to the lien of this Indenture created by any other indenture
     authorizing the issuance of bonds, notes or other evidences of indebtedness
     of the Corporation the proceeds of which have been or will be used to
     refund or otherwise retire all or a portion of the Outstanding Notes (but
     only upon receipt by the Trustee of an opinion of Counsel that the creation
     of such lien will not be prejudicial to the Trustee or the Holders of any
     Outstanding Notes or any Other Beneficiary) or as otherwise provided in or
     permitted by this Indenture. The Corporation will not issue any bonds or
     other evidences of indebtedness, other than the Notes as permitted by this
     Indenture

     provided that nothing in this Indenture shall prevent the Corporation from
     issuing obligations secured by assets and revenues of the Corporation other
     than the Trust Estate pledged in this Indenture.

PRINCIPAL AMOUNT:

          FOR VALUE RECEIVED, EDUCATION LOANS INCORPORATED, a corporation
organized under the laws of the State of Delaware (the "Corporation," which term
includes any successor corporation under the Indenture hereinafter referred to),
acknowledges itself indebted and hereby promises to pay to the registered holder
specified above, or registered assigns (the "Registered Holder"), but solely
from the revenues and receipts hereinafter specified and not otherwise, the
Principal Amount specified above on the Stated Maturity Date specified above
(subject to the right of prior redemption hereinafter mentioned), upon
presentation and surrender of this Note at the Principal Office of the Trustee
(as hereinafter defined), as Paying Agent for the Series 2000-1 Notes

                                     A-1

(as hereinafter defined), or a duly appointed successor Paying Agent, and to pay
interest on said Principal Amount, but solely from the revenues and receipts
hereinafter specified and not otherwise, to the Registered Holder hereof from
the date hereof until the payment of said Principal Amount has been made or duly
provided for, payable on each Interest Payment Date and at Maturity, at the
Series 2000-1 Note Interest Rate (as hereinafter described), and at the same
rate per annum (to the extent that the payment of such interest shall be legally
enforceable) on overdue installments of interest. Payment of interest on this
Note on each regularly scheduled Interest Payment Date shall be made by check or
draft drawn upon the Paying Agent and mailed to the person who is the Registered
Holder hereof as of 5:00 p.m. in the city in which the Principal Office of the
Note Registrar is located on the applicable Regular Record Date at the address
of such Registered Holder as it appears on the Note Register maintained by the
Note Registrar, or, if the Registered Holder of this Note is the Registered
Holder of Series 2000-1 Notes in the aggregate principal amount of $1,000,000 or
more, at the direction of such Registered Holder received by the Paying Agent by
5:00 p.m. in the city in which the Principal Office of the Paying Agent is
located on the last Business Day preceding the applicable Regular Record Date,
by electronic transfer by the Paying Agent in immediately available funds to an
account designated by such Registered Holder. In addition, premium, if any, and
interest on this Note are payable at the Maturity hereof in the same manner as
the principal hereof, unless the date of such maturity is a regularly scheduled
Interest Payment Date, in which event interest is payable in the manner set
forth in the preceding sentence. Any interest not so timely paid or duly
provided for shall cease to be payable to the person who is the Registered
Holder hereof at the close of business on the Regular Record Date and shall be
payable to the person who is the Registered Holder hereof at the close of
business on a special record date for the payment of any such defaulted
interest. Such special record date shall be fixed by the Trustee whenever moneys
become available for payment of the defaulted interest, and notice of the
special record date shall be given to the Registered Holder hereof not less than
ten days prior thereto by first-class mail to such Registered Holder as shown on
the Note Register on a date selected by the Trustee, stating the date of the
special record date and the date fixed for the payment of such defaulted
interest. The principal of, premium, if any, and interest on this Note are

          This Note is one of an authorized issue of Notes (the "Notes"), issued
and to be issued by the Corporation in one or more series pursuant to an
Indenture of Trust, dated as of December 1, 1999 (as supplemented and amended,
the "Indenture"), as amended and supplemented by a First Supplemental Indenture
of Trust, dated as of December 1, 1999, and a Second Supplemental Indenture of
Trust, dated as of December 1, 2000 (the "Second Supplemental Indenture"), each
between the Corporation and U.S. Bank National Association, in Minneapolis,
Minnesota, as Trustee (the "Trustee," which term includes any successor trustee
under the Indenture). As provided in the Indenture, the Notes are issuable in
series which may vary as in the Indenture provided or permitted. This Note is
one of a series issued in an aggregate principal amount of $54,100,000 (the
"Series 2000-1A [B] Notes"). The Series 2000- 1A [B] Notes are issued
simultaneously with one other series of Class A Notes issued in the aggregate
principal amount of $54,100,000 (the "Series 2000-1B [A] Notes" and, together
with the Series 2000-1A [B] Notes, collectively referred to herein as the
"Series 2000-1 Senior Notes"), and a series of Class B Notes issued in the
aggregate principal amount of

                                      A-2
<PAGE>

$22,000,000 (the "Series 2000-1C Notes" and, together with the Series 2000-1
Senior Notes, collectively referred to herein as the "Series 2000-1 Notes"). The
proceeds of the Series 2000-1 Notes will be used by the Corporation to (a)
acquire student loan notes incurred under the Higher Education Act and under
certain Alternative Loan Programs, (b) fund the Reserve Fund, (c) pay a portion
of the interest coming due on the Series 2000-1 Notes and (d) pay Costs of
Issuance of the Series 2000-1 Notes. The Series 2000-1 Senior Notes are being
issued on a parity, and are equally and ratably secured under the Indenture,
with the Corporation's Student Loan Asset-Backed Notes, Senior Series 1999-A and
1999-B, issued under the Indenture as Class A Notes in the original aggregate
principal amount of $117,000,000, and the Series 2000-1C Notes are being issued
on a parity, and are equally and ratably secured under the Indenture, with the
Corporation's Student Loan Asset-Backed Notes, Subordinate Series 1999-1C,
issued under the Indenture as Class B Notes in the original principal amount of
$9,300,000.

          Reference is hereby made to the Indenture, copies of which are on file
in the principal corporate trust office of the Trustee, and to all of the
provisions of which any Registered Holder of this Note by his acceptance hereof
hereby assents, for definitions of terms; the description of and the nature and
extent of the security for the various classes of Notes and Other Obligations
secured thereunder; the student loan acquisition program being financed by the
issuance of the Notes; the revenues and other moneys pledged to the payment of
the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes and the Other
Obligations; the nature and extent and manner of enforcement of the pledge; the
conditions upon which Notes may be issued or Other Obligations may be incurred
by the Corporation thereunder, payable from such revenues and other moneys
thereunder as Senior Obligations, Subordinate Obligations or Class C Notes; the
conditions upon which the Indenture may be amended or supplemented with or
without the consent of the Holders of the Notes; the rights and remedies of the
Registered Holder hereof with respect hereto and thereto, including the
limitations upon the right of a Registered Holder hereof to institute any suit,
action or proceeding in equity or at law with respect hereto and thereto; the
rights, duties and obligations of the Corporation and the Trustee thereunder;
the terms and provisions upon which the liens, pledges, charges, trusts and
covenants made therein may be discharged at or prior to the maturity or
redemption of this Note, and this Note thereafter no longer be secured by the
Indenture, or be deemed to be Outstanding thereunder; and for the other terms
and provisions thereof. Terms used with initial capital letters but not defined
in this Note have the respective meanings given such terms in the Indenture. The
Series 2000-1 Senior Notes are being issued as, and will constitute, Class A
Notes under the Indenture. The Series 2000-1C Notes are being issued as, and
will constitute, Class B Notes under the Indenture.

          The Notes and Other Obligations are limited obligations of the
Corporation, payable solely from the revenues and assets of the Corporation
pledged therefor under the Indenture, including certain notes evidencing Student
Loans and the proceeds of the Corporation's bonds, notes or other evidences of
indebtedness, if any, issued with respect to the Notes.

          Interest payable on this Note shall be computed on the basis of actual
days elapsed and accrue daily from the date hereof (on the basis of a 360-day
year), and is payable on each regularly

                                      A-3
<PAGE>

scheduled Interest Payment Date prior to the Maturity of this Note and at the
Maturity of this Note. The interest payable on each Interest Payment Date for
this Note shall be that interest which has accrued through the last day of the
last complete Interest Period immediately preceding the Interest Payment Date
or, in the case of the Maturity of this Note, the last day preceding the date of
such Maturity. The Series 2000-1 Note Interest Rate shall be effective as of and
on the first day (whether or not a Business Day) of the applicable Interest
Period and be in effect thereafter through the end of such Interest Period.

          The unpaid principal amount hereof from time to time outstanding shall
bear interest at a Series 2000-1 Note Auction Rate, as described below, payable
on each Interest Payment Date and at the Maturity hereof, such interest to
accrue from the later of the date hereof or the date through which interest has
been paid or duly provided for.

          During the Initial Interest Period, this Note shall bear interest at
the Series 2000-1 Note Initial Interest Rate. Thereafter until an Auction Period
Adjustment, if any, this Note shall bear interest at a Series 2000-1 Note
Auction Rate based on an Auction Period that shall generally consist of 28 days,
all as determined in the Second Supplemental Indenture.

          The Series 2000-1 Note Auction Rate to be borne by this Note after the
Initial Interest Period for each Auction Period until an Auction Period
Adjustment, if any, shall be the lesser of (i) the Net Loan Rate in effect for
such Auction Period, (ii) the Auction Rate determined in accordance with the
applicable provisions of the Second Supplemental Indenture and (iii) the Series
2000-1 Note Auction Rate Limitation.

          In no event shall the Series 2000-1 Note Auction Rate on this Note
exceed the Series 2000-1 Note Auction Rate Limitation.

          The Interest Period, including, without limitation, an Auction Period,
the applicable Series 2000-1 Note Auction Rate, the method of determining the
applicable Series 2000-1 Note Auction Rate on each of the Series 2000-1A [B]
Notes and the Auction Procedures related thereto, including, without limitation,
required notices thereof to the Holders or Existing Holders of the Series 2000-1
Senior Notes, an Auction Period Adjustment, a change in the Auction Date and the
Interest Payment Dates will be determined in accordance with the terms,
conditions and provisions of the Second Supplemental Indenture and the Auction
Agent Agreement, to which terms, conditions and provisions specific reference is
hereby made, and all of which terms, conditions and provisions are hereby
specifically incorporated herein by reference.

          If the Auction Rate for the Series 2000-1A [B] Notes is greater than
the Net Loan Rate, then the Series 2000-1 Note Auction Rate applicable to the
Series 2000-1 Notes for that Interest Period will be the Net Loan Rate. If the
Series 2000-1 Note Auction Rate applicable to the Series 2000-1A [B] Notes for
any Interest Period is the Net Loan Rate, the Trustee shall determine the Carry-
Over Amount, if any, with respect to the Series 2000-1A [B] Notes for such
Interest Period.

                                      A-4
<PAGE>

Such Carryover Amount shall bear interest calculated at a rate equal to One-
Month LIBOR from the Interest Payment Date for the Interest Period with respect
to which such Carry-Over Amount was calculated until paid. For purposes of this
Note, 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 Series 2000-1A [B] Note by the Trustee during such Interest Period in
sufficient time for the Trustee to give notice to each Holder of such Carry-Over
Amount as required in the next succeeding sentence. On the Interest Payment Date
for an Interest Period with respect to which such Carry-Over Amount has been
calculated by the Trustee, the Trustee shall give written notice to each Holder
of the Carry-Over Amount applicable to each Holder's Series 2000-1A [B] Note,
which written notice may accompany the payment of interest by check made to each
such Holder on such Interest Payment Date or otherwise shall be mailed on such
Interest Payment Date by first class mail, postage prepaid, to each such Holder
at such Holder's address as it appears on the registration books maintained by
the Note Registrar. Such notice shall state, in addition to such Carry-Over
Amount, that, unless and until a Series 2000-1A [B] Note has been redeemed or
has been deemed no longer Outstanding under the Second Supplemental Indenture
(after which no Carry-Over Amount shall be paid with respect to a Series 2000-1A
[B] Note), (i) the Carry-Over Amount (and interest accrued thereon) shall be
paid by the Trustee on such Series 2000-1A [B] Note on the first occurring
Interest Payment Date for a subsequent Interest Period if and to the extent that
(l) the Eligible Carry-Over Make-Up Amount with respect to such Interest Period
is greater than zero, and (2) moneys are available pursuant to the terms of the
Second Supplemental Indenture to pay such Carry-Over Amount (and interest
accrued thereon), and (ii) interest shall accrue on the Carry-Over Amount at a
per annum rate equal to One-Month LIBOR until such Carry-Over Amount is paid in
full or is cancelled.

          The Carry-Over Amount for the Series 2000-1A [B] Notes shall be paid
by the Trustee on Outstanding Series 2000-1A [B] Notes on the first occurring
Interest Payment Date for a subsequent Interest Period if and to the extent that
(i) the Eligible Carry-Over Make-Up Amount with respect to such Interest Period
is greater than zero, and (ii) moneys in the Surplus Account are available on
such Interest Payment Date for transfer to the Interest Account for such purpose
in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Indenture, after taking into
account all other amounts payable from the Surplus Fund on such Interest Payment
Date. Any Carry- Over Amount (and any interest accrued thereon) which is unpaid
as of an Interest Payment Date with respect to any Series 2000-1A [B] Note,
which Series 2000-1A [B] Note is to be redeemed or deemed no longer Outstanding
under the Second Supplemental Indenture on such Interest Payment Date, shall be
paid to the Holder thereof on such Interest Payment Date to the extent that
moneys are available therefor in accordance with the provisions of the preceding
clause (b); provided, however, that any Carry-Over Amount (and any interest
accrued thereon) which is not so paid on such Interest Payment Date shall be
cancelled with respect to such Series 2000-1A [B] Note on such Interest Payment
Date and shall not be paid on any succeeding Interest Payment Date. To the
extent that any portion of the Carry-Over Amount (and any interest accrued
thereon) remains unpaid after payment of a portion thereof, such unpaid portion
shall be paid in whole or in part as required hereunder until fully paid by the
Trustee on the next occurring Interest Payment Date or Dates, as necessary, for
a subsequent Interest Period or Periods, if and to the

                                      A-5
<PAGE>

extent that the conditions in the first sentence of this paragraph are
satisfied. On any Interest Payment Date on which the Trustee pays less than all
of the Carry-Over Amount (and any interest accrued thereon) with respect to a
Series 2000-1A [B] Note, the Trustee shall give written notice in the manner set
forth in the immediately preceding paragraph to the Holder of such Series 2000-
1A [B] Note of the Carry-Over Amount remaining unpaid on such Series 2000- 1A
[B] Note.

          The Interest Payment Date in such subsequent Interest Period on which
such Carry-Over Amount for the Series 2000-1A [B] 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
in the same manner as, and from the same Account from which, it pays interest on
the Series 2000-1A [B] Notes on an Interest Payment Date.

          By purchasing Series 2000-1A [B] Notes, whether in an Auction or
otherwise, each purchaser of the Series 2000-1A [B] Notes, or its Broker-Dealer,
must agree and shall be deemed by such purchase to have agreed (i) to
participate in Auctions on the terms described in the Second Supplemental
Indenture, (ii) to have its beneficial ownership of the Series 2000-1A [B] Notes
maintained at all times in Book-Entry Form for the account of its Participant,
which in turn will maintain records of such beneficial ownership, and (iii) to
authorize such Participant to disclose to the Auction Agent such information
with respect to such beneficial ownership as the Auction Agent may request. So
long as the ownership of Series 2000-1A [B] Notes is maintained in Book-Entry
Form by the Securities Depository, an Existing Holder may sell, transfer or
otherwise dispose of Series 2000-1A [B] Notes only pursuant to a Bid or Sell
Order placed in an Auction or otherwise sell, transfer or dispose of Series
2000-1A [B] Notes through a Broker-Dealer, provided that, in the case of all
transfers other than pursuant to Auctions, such Existing Holder, its Broker-
Dealer or its Participant advises the Auction Agent of such transfer.

          The determination of a Series 2000-1 Note Interest Rate by the Auction
Agent or any other authorized Person pursuant to the provisions of the Second
Supplemental Indenture shall be conclusive and binding on the Holders of the
Series 2000-1A [B] Notes to which such Series 2000-1 Note Interest Rate applies,
and the Corporation and the Trustee may rely thereon for all purposes.

          Notwithstanding any provision of this Note to the contrary, in no
event shall the cumulative amount of interest paid or payable on this Note
(including interest calculated as provided herein, plus any other amounts that
constitute interest on this Note under applicable law, which are contracted for,
charged, reserved, taken or received pursuant to this Note or related documents)
calculated from the date of issuance of this Note through any subsequent day
during the term of this Note or otherwise prior to payment in full of this Note
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 this
Note or related documents or otherwise contracted for, charged, reserved, taken
or received in connection with this Note, or if the redemption or acceleration
of the maturity of this Note results in payment to or receipt by the Registered
Holder or any former Registered Holder hereof of any interest in excess of that
permitted by applicable law, then notwithstanding any provision of this Note or
related

                                      A-6
<PAGE>

documents to the contrary all excess amounts theretofore paid or received with
respect to this Note shall be credited on the principal balance of this Note
(or, if this Note has been paid or would thereby be paid in full, refunded by
the recipient thereof), and the provisions of this Note and related documents
shall 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 this Note and under
the related documents.

          Subject to compliance with the provisions of the Indenture relating to
certain asset requirements, Outstanding Series 2000-1 Notes shall be redeemed,
in part, on the first regularly scheduled Interest Payment Date occurring after
April 2, 2001 for which notice can be given in accordance with the requirements
of the Second Supplemental Indenture, at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the
principal amount of Series 2000-1 Notes so redeemed, from proceeds of the Series
2000-1 Notes constituting a portion of the Balance of the Acquisition Fund that
have not been used to acquire Eligible Loans and from that portion of the
Reserve Fund which, if left in the Reserve Fund upon such redemption, would
cause the Balance in the Reserve Fund to exceed the Reserve Fund Requirement,
calculated giving effect to such redemption.

          Subject to compliance with the provisions of the Indenture relating to
certain asset requirements, Outstanding Series 2000-1A [B] Notes shall be
redeemed on any regularly scheduled Interest Payment Date, in whole or in part,
at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof to be
redeemed, from that portion of the balance of the Series 2000-1 Surplus
Subaccount that has been on deposit therein for at least 12 months, has not been
used to acquire Student Loans and as to which the Corporation has failed to
certify to the Trustee is necessary to pay debt service on the Outstanding Notes
or on Outstanding Other Obligations, Carry-Over Amounts, including accrued
interest thereon, with respect to Outstanding Notes, Administrative Expenses or
Note Fees or to make required deposits to the Indemnification Fund.

          Subject to compliance with the provisions of the Indenture relating to
certain asset requirements and certain other requirements, Outstanding Series
2000-1A [B] Notes may, at the option of the Corporation, be redeemed on any
regularly scheduled Interest Payment Date, in whole or in part, at a Redemption
Price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof to be redeemed, from amounts
credited to the Retirement Account for such purpose.

          If not all Series 2000-1 Notes are to be redeemed, the particular
Series 2000-1 Notes to be redeemed are to be selected as provided in the
Indenture.

          Notice of redemption shall be given by first-class mail mailed at
least 15 days before the Redemption Date to each Holder of Series 2000-1A [B]
Notes to be redeemed at his last address appearing on the Note Register; but no
defect in or failure to give such notice of redemption shall affect the validity
of proceedings for redemption of any Series 2000-1A [B] Notes not affected by
such defect or failure. All Series 2000-1A [B] Notes so called for redemption
will cease to bear interest on

                                      A-7
<PAGE>

such Redemption Date, provided funds for their redemption have been duly
deposited, and, except for the purpose of payment, shall no longer be protected
by the Indenture and shall not be deemed Outstanding thereunder.

          It is provided in the Indenture that Series 2000-1A [B] Notes of a
denomination larger than $50,000 may be redeemed in part ($50,000 or an integral
multiple thereof) and that upon any partial redemption of any such Series 2000-
1A [B] Note the same shall be surrendered in exchange for one or more new Notes
of the same series in authorized form for the unredeemed portion of principal.

          If provision is made for the payment of principal of, premium, if any,
and interest on this Note in accordance with the Indenture, this Note shall no
longer be deemed Outstanding under the Indenture, shall cease to be entitled to
the benefits of the Indenture and shall thereafter be payable solely from the
funds provided for such payment.

          If an Event of Default shall occur, the principal of all the
Outstanding Notes may and, under certain circumstances, shall be declared due
and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture.

          The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided,
the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the
Corporation and the rights of the Holders of the Notes and Other Beneficiaries

consent of the Holders of two-thirds of the aggregate principal amount of Class
A Notes at the time Outstanding, if affected thereby, and the consent of the
Holders of two-thirds of the aggregate principal amount of Class B Notes at the
time Outstanding, if affected thereby. The Indenture also contains provisions
permitting the Holders of specified percentages in aggregate principal amount of
the Class A Notes at the time Outstanding or Other Senior Beneficiaries or, if
no Senior Obligations are Outstanding, the Holders of specified percentages in
aggregate principal amount of the Class B Notes at the time Outstanding or Other
Subordinate Beneficiaries, on behalf of the Holders of all the Notes, to waive
certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such
consent or waiver shall be conclusive and binding upon the Registered Holder of
this Note and upon all future Registered Holders hereof and of any Note issued
in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent
or waiver is made upon this Note.

          This Note is transferable by the Registered Holder hereof upon
surrender of this Note for transfer at the Principal Office of the Note

PRINCIPAL AMOUNT:

          FOR VALUE RECEIVED, EDUCATION LOANS INCORPORATED, a corporation
organized under the laws of the State of Delaware (the "Corporation," which term
includes any successor corporation under the Indenture hereinafter referred to),
acknowledges itself indebted and hereby promises to pay to the registered holder
specified above, or registered assigns (the "Registered Holder"), but solely
from the revenues and receipts hereinafter specified and not otherwise, the

                                      B-1
<PAGE>

(as hereinafter defined), or a duly appointed successor Paying Agent, and to pay

hereinafter specified and not otherwise, to the Registered Holder hereof from
the date hereof until the payment of said Principal Amount has been made or duly
provided for, payable on each Interest Payment Date and at Maturity, at the
Series 2000-1 Note Interest Rate (as hereinafter described), and at the same
rate per annum (to the extent that the payment of such interest shall be legally
enforceable) on overdue installments of interest. Payment of interest on this
Note on each regularly scheduled Interest Payment Date shall be made by check or
draft drawn upon the Paying Agent and mailed to the person who is the Registered
Holder hereof as of 5:00 p.m. in the city in which the Principal Office of the
Note Registrar is located on the applicable Regular Record Date at the address
of such Registered Holder as it appears on the Note Register maintained by the
Note Registrar, or, if the Registered Holder of this Note is the Registered

more, at the direction of such Registered Holder received by the Paying Agent by

by electronic transfer by the Paying Agent in immediately available funds to an

Interest Payment Date, in which event interest is payable in the manner set
forth in the preceding sentence. Any interest not so timely paid or duly
provided for shall cease to be payable to the person who is the Registered
Holder hereof at the close of business on the Regular Record Date and shall be
payable to the person who is the Registered Holder hereof at the close of
business on a special record date for the payment of any such defaulted
interest. Such special record date shall be fixed by the Trustee whenever moneys

Indenture of Trust, dated as of December 1, 1999 (as supplemented and amended,
the "Indenture"), as amended and supplemented by a First Supplemental Indenture
of Trust, dated as of December 1, 1999, and a Second Supplemental Indenture of
Trust, dated as of December 1, 2000 (the "Second Supplemental Indenture"), each
between the Corporation and U.S. Bank National Association, in Minneapolis,
Minnesota, as Trustee (the "Trustee," which term includes any successor trustee
under the Indenture). As provided in the Indenture, the Notes are issuable in
series which may vary as in the Indenture provided or permitted. This Note is
one of a series of Class B Notes issued in an aggregate principal amount of
$22,000,000 (the "Series 2000-1C Notes"). The Series 2000-1C Notes are issued
simultaneously with two series of Class A Notes issued in the aggregate
principal amount of $108,200,000 (the "Series 2000-1 Senior Notes" and, together
with the Series 2000-1C Notes, collectively referred to herein as the "Series
2000-1 Notes"). The proceeds of the Series 2000-1 Notes will be used by the
Corporation to (a)

                                      B-2
<PAGE>

acquire student loan notes incurred under the Higher Education Act and under
certain Alternative Loan Programs, (b) fund the Reserve Fund, (c) pay a portion
of the interest coming due on the Series 2000-1 Notes and (d) pay Costs of
Issuance of the Series 2000-1 Notes. The Series 2000-1 Senior Notes are being
issued on a parity, and are equally and ratably secured under the Indenture,
with the Corporation's Student Loan Asset-Backed Notes, Senior Series 1999-A and
1999-B, issued under the Indenture as Class A Notes in the original aggregate
principal amount of $117,000,000 (the "Prior Senior Notes"), and the Series
2000-1C Notes are being issued on a parity, and are equally and ratably secured
under the Indenture, with the Corporation's Student Loan Asset- Backed Notes,
Subordinate Series 1999-1C, issued under the Indenture as Class B Notes in the
original principal amount of $9,300,000.

          Reference is hereby made to the Indenture, copies of which are on file
in the principal corporate trust office of the Trustee, and to all of the
provisions of which any Registered Holder of this Note by his acceptance hereof
hereby assents, for definitions of terms; the description of and the nature and
extent of the security for the various classes of Notes and Other Obligations
secured thereunder; the student loan acquisition program being financed by the
issuance of the Notes; the revenues and other moneys pledged to the payment of
the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes and the Other
Obligations; the nature and extent and manner of enforcement of the pledge; the
conditions upon which Notes may be issued or Other Obligations may be incurred
by the Corporation thereunder, payable from such revenues and other moneys
thereunder as Senior Obligations, Subordinate Obligations or Class C Notes; the
conditions upon which the Indenture may be amended or supplemented with or
without the consent of the Holders of the Notes; the rights and remedies of the
Registered Holder hereof with respect hereto and thereto, including the
limitations upon the right of a Registered Holder hereof to institute any suit,
action or proceeding in equity or at law with respect hereto and thereto; the
rights, duties and obligations of the Corporation and the Trustee thereunder;
the terms and provisions upon which the liens, pledges, charges, trusts and
covenants made therein may be discharged at or prior to the maturity or
redemption of this Note, and this Note thereafter no longer be secured by the
Indenture, or be deemed to be Outstanding thereunder; and for the other terms
and provisions thereof. Terms used with initial capital letters but not defined
in this Note have the respective meanings given such terms in the Indenture. The
Series 2000-1 Senior Notes are being issued as, and will constitute, Class A
Notes under the Indenture. The Series 2000-1C Notes are being issued as, and
will constitute, Class B Notes under the Indenture.

          The Notes and Other Obligations are limited obligations of the
Corporation, payable solely from the revenues and assets of the Corporation
pledged therefor under the Indenture, including certain notes evidencing Student
Loans and the proceeds of the Corporation's bonds, notes or other evidences of
indebtedness, if any, issued with respect to the Notes.

          The Series 2000-1C Notes constitute Class B Notes under the Indenture
which are subordinated in right of payment, the direction of remedies and
certain other matters in accordance with the terms of the Indenture to the
rights of the Holders of Class A Notes issued from time to time under the
Indenture (including, without limitation, the Prior Senior Notes and the Series
2000-1 Senior Notes)

                                      B-3
<PAGE>

and Other Senior Beneficiaries thereunder. A failure to pay principal of,
premium, if any, or interest on this Class B Note will not constitute an Event
of Default under the Indenture if any Senior Obligation is Outstanding.

          Interest payable on this Note shall be computed on the basis of actual
days elapsed and accrue daily from the date hereof (on the basis of a 360-day
year), and is payable on each regularly scheduled Interest Payment Date prior to
the Maturity hereof and at the Maturity hereof. The interest payable on each
Interest Payment Date for this Note shall be that interest which has accrued
through the last day of the last complete Interest Period immediately preceding
the Interest Payment Date or, in the case of the Maturity hereof, the last day
preceding the date of such Maturity. The Series 2000-1 Note Interest Rate shall
be effective as of and on the first day (whether or not a Business Day) of the
applicable Interest Period and be in effect thereafter through the end of such
Interest Period.

          The unpaid principal amount hereof from time to time outstanding shall
bear interest at a Series 2000-1 Note Auction Rate, as described below, payable
on each Interest Payment Date and at the Maturity hereof, such interest to
accrue from the later of the date hereof or the date through which interest has
been paid or duly provided for.

          During the Initial Interest Period, this Note shall bear interest at
the Series 2000-1 Note Initial Interest Rate. Thereafter until an Auction Period
Adjustment, if any, this Note shall bear interest at a Series 2000-1 Note
Auction Rate based on an Auction Period that shall generally consist of 28 days,
all as determined in the Second Supplemental Indenture.

          The Series 2000-1 Note Auction Rate to be borne by this Note after the
Initial Interest Period for each Auction Period until an Auction Period
Adjustment, if any, shall be the lesser of (i) the Net Loan Rate in effect for
such Auction Period, (ii) the Auction Rate determined in accordance with the
applicable provisions of the Second Supplemental Indenture and (iii) the Series
2000-1 Note Auction Rate Limitation.

          In no event shall the Series 2000-1 Note Auction Rate on this Note
exceed the Series 2000-1 Note Auction Rate Limitation.

          The Interest Period, including, without limitation, an Auction Period,
the applicable Series 2000-1 Note Auction Rate, the method of determining the
applicable Series 2000-1 Note Auction Rate on each of the Series 2000-1C Notes
and the Auction Procedures related thereto, including, without limitation,
required notices thereof to the Holders or Existing Holders of the Series 2000-1
Senior Notes, an Auction Period Adjustment, a change in the Auction Date and the
Interest Payment Dates will be determined in accordance with the terms,
conditions and provisions of the Second Supplemental Indenture and the Auction
Agent Agreement, to which terms, conditions and provisions specific reference is
hereby made, and all of which terms, conditions and provisions are hereby
specifically incorporated herein by reference.

                                      B-4
<PAGE>

          If the Auction Rate for the Series 2000-1C Notes is greater than the
Net Loan Rate, then the Series 2000-1 Note Auction Rate applicable to the Series
2000-1 Notes for that Interest Period will be the Net Loan Rate. If the Series
2000-1 Note Auction Rate applicable to the Series 2000-1C Notes for any Interest
Period is the Net Loan Rate, the Trustee shall determine the Carry-Over Amount,
if any, with respect to the Series 2000-1C Notes for such Interest Period. Such
Carryover Amount shall bear interest calculated at a rate equal to One- Month
LIBOR from the Interest Payment Date for the Interest Period with respect to
which such Carry-Over Amount was calculated until paid. For purposes of this
Note, 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 Series 2000-1C Note by the Trustee during such Interest Period in
sufficient time for the Trustee to give notice to each Holder of such Carry-Over
Amount as required in the next succeeding sentence. On the Interest Payment Date
for an Interest Period with respect to which such Carry-Over Amount has been
calculated by the Trustee, the Trustee shall give written notice to each Holder
of the Carry-Over Amount applicable to each Holder's Series 2000-1C Note, which
written notice may accompany the payment of interest by check made to each such
Holder on such Interest Payment Date or otherwise shall be mailed on such
Interest Payment Date by first class mail, postage prepaid, to each such Holder
at such Holder's address as it appears on the registration books maintained by
the Note Registrar. Such notice shall state, in addition to such Carry-Over
Amount, that, unless and until a Series 2000-1C Note has been redeemed or has
been deemed no longer Outstanding under the Second Supplemental Indenture (after
which no Carry-Over Amount shall be paid with respect to a Series 2000-1C Note),
(i) the Carry-Over Amount (and interest accrued thereon) shall be paid by the
Trustee on such Series 2000-1C Note on the first occurring Interest Payment Date
for a subsequent Interest Period if and to the extent that (l) the Eligible
Carry-Over Make- Up Amount with respect to such Interest Period is greater than
zero, and (2) moneys are available pursuant to the terms of the Second
Supplemental Indenture to pay such Carry-Over Amount (and interest accrued
thereon), and (ii) interest shall accrue on the Carry-Over Amount at a per annum
rate equal to One-Month LIBOR until such Carry-Over Amount is paid in full or is
cancelled.

          The Carry-Over Amount for the Series 2000-1C Notes shall be paid by
the Trustee on Outstanding Series 2000-1C Notes on the first occurring Interest
Payment Date for a subsequent Interest Period if and to the extent that (i) the
Eligible Carry-Over Make-Up Amount with respect to such Interest Period is
greater than zero, and (ii) moneys in the Surplus Account are available on such
Interest Payment Date for transfer to the Interest Account for such purpose in
accordance with the applicable provisions of the Indenture, after taking into
account all other amounts payable from the Surplus Fund on such Interest Payment
Date. Any Carry-Over Amount (and any interest accrued thereon) which is unpaid
as of an Interest Payment Date with respect to any Series 2000-1C Note, which
Series 2000-1C Note is to be redeemed or deemed no longer Outstanding under the
Second Supplemental Indenture on such Interest Payment Date, shall be paid to
the Holder thereof on such Interest Payment Date to the extent that moneys are
available therefor in accordance with the provisions of the preceding clause
(b); provided, however, that any Carry-Over Amount (and any interest accrued
thereon) which is not so paid on such Interest Payment Date shall be cancelled
with

                                      B-5
<PAGE>

respect to such Series 2000-1C Note on such Interest Payment Date and shall not
be paid on any succeeding Interest Payment Date. To the extent that any portion
of the Carry-Over Amount (and any interest accrued thereon) remains unpaid after
payment of a portion thereof, such unpaid portion shall be paid in whole or in
part as required hereunder until fully paid by the Trustee on the next occurring
Interest Payment Date or Dates, as necessary, for a subsequent Interest Period
or Periods, if and to the extent that the conditions in the first sentence of
this paragraph are satisfied. On any Interest Payment Date on which the Trustee
pays less than all of the Carry-Over Amount (and any interest accrued thereon)
with respect to a Series 2000-1C Note, the Trustee shall give written notice in
the manner set forth in the immediately preceding paragraph to the Holder of
such Series 2000-1C Note of the Carry-Over Amount remaining unpaid on such
Series 2000-1C Note.

          The Interest Payment Date in such subsequent Interest Period on which
such Carry-Over Amount for the Series 2000-1C 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
in the same manner as, and from the same Account from which, it pays interest on
the Series 2000-1C Notes on an Interest Payment Date.

          By purchasing Series 2000-1C Notes, whether in an Auction or
otherwise, each purchaser of the Series 2000-1C Notes, or its Broker-Dealer,
must agree and shall be deemed by such purchase to have agreed (i) to
participate in Auctions on the terms described in the Second Supplemental
Indenture, (ii) to have its beneficial ownership of the Series 2000-1C Notes
maintained at all times in Book-Entry Form for the account of its Participant,
which in turn will maintain records of such beneficial ownership, and (iii) to
authorize such Participant to disclose to the Auction Agent such information
with respect to such beneficial ownership as the Auction Agent may request. So
long as the ownership of Series 2000-1C Notes is maintained in Book- Entry Form
by the Securities Depository, an Existing Holder may sell, transfer or otherwise
dispose of Series 2000-1C Notes only pursuant to a Bid or Sell Order placed in
an Auction or otherwise sell, transfer or dispose of Series 2000-1C Notes
through a Broker-Dealer, provided that, in the case of all transfers other than
pursuant to Auctions, such Existing Holder, its Broker- Dealer or its
Participant advises the Auction Agent of such transfer.

          The determination of a Series 2000-1 Note Interest Rate by the Auction
Agent or any other authorized Person pursuant to the provisions of the Second
Supplemental Indenture shall be conclusive and binding on the Holders of the
Series 2000-1C Notes to which such Series 2000-1 Note Interest Rate applies, and
the Corporation and the Trustee may rely thereon for all purposes.

          Notwithstanding any provision of this Note to the contrary, in no
event shall the cumulative amount of interest paid or payable on this Note
(including interest calculated as provided herein, plus any other amounts that
constitute interest on this Note under applicable law, which are contracted for,
charged, reserved, taken or received pursuant to this Note or related documents)
calculated from the date of issuance of this Note through any subsequent day
during the term of this Note or otherwise prior to payment in full of this Note
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

                                      B-6
<PAGE>

this Note or related documents or otherwise contracted for, charged, reserved,
taken or received in connection with this Note, or if the redemption or
acceleration of the maturity of this Note results in payment to or receipt by
the Registered Holder or any former Registered Holder hereof of any interest in
excess of that permitted by applicable law, then notwithstanding any provision
of this Note or related documents to the contrary all excess amounts theretofore
paid or received with respect to this Note shall be credited on the principal
balance of this Note (or, if this Note has been paid or would thereby be paid in
full, refunded by the recipient thereof), and the provisions of this Note and
related documents shall 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 this Note and under the related documents.

          Subject to compliance with the provisions of the Indenture relating to
certain asset requirements, Outstanding Series 2000-1 Notes shall be redeemed,
in part, on the first regularly scheduled Interest Payment Date occurring after
April 2, 2001 for which notice can be given in accordance with the requirements
of the Second Supplemental Indenture, at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the
principal amount of Series 2000-1 Notes so redeemed, from proceeds of the Series
2000-1 Notes constituting a portion of the Balance of the Acquisition Fund that
have not been used to acquire Eligible Loans and from that portion of the
Reserve Fund which, if left in the Reserve Fund upon such redemption, would
cause the Balance in the Reserve Fund to exceed the Reserve Fund Requirement,
calculated giving effect to such redemption.

          Subject to compliance with the provisions of the Indenture relating to
certain asset requirements, Outstanding Series 2000-1C Notes shall be redeemed
on any regularly scheduled Interest Payment Date, in whole or in part, at a
Redemption Price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof to be redeemed,
from that portion of the balance of the Series 2000-1 Surplus Subaccount that
has been on deposit therein for at least 12 months, has not been used to acquire
Student Loans and as to which the Corporation has failed to certify to the
Trustee is necessary to pay debt service on the Outstanding Notes or on
Outstanding Other Obligations, Carry-Over Amounts, including accrued interest
thereon, with respect to Outstanding Notes, Administrative Expenses or Note Fees
or to make required deposits to the Indemnification Fund.

          Subject to compliance with the provisions of the Indenture relating to
certain asset requirements and certain other requirements, Outstanding Series
2000-1C Notes may, at the option of the Corporation, be redeemed on any
regularly scheduled Interest Payment Date, in whole or in part, at a Redemption
Price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof to be redeemed, from amounts
credited to the Retirement Account for such purpose.

          If not all Series 2000-1 Notes are to be redeemed, the particular
Series 2000-1 Notes to be redeemed are to be selected as provided in the
Indenture.

                                      B-7
<PAGE>

          Notice of redemption shall be given by first-class mail mailed at
least 15 days before the Redemption Date to each Holder of Series 2000-1C Notes
to be redeemed at his last address appearing on the Note Register; but no defect
in or failure to give such notice of redemption shall affect the validity of
proceedings for redemption of any Note not affected by such defect or failure.
All Series 2000-1C Notes so called for redemption will cease to bear interest on
such Redemption Date, provided funds for their redemption have been duly
deposited, and, except for the purpose of payment, shall no longer be protected
by the Indenture and shall not be deemed Outstanding thereunder.

          It is provided in the Indenture that Series 2000-1C Notes of a
denomination larger than $50,000 may be redeemed in part ($50,000 or an integral
multiple thereof) and that upon any partial redemption of any such Series 2000-
1C Note the same shall be surrendered in exchange for one or more new Notes of
the same series in authorized form for the unredeemed portion of principal.

          If provision is made for the payment of principal of, premium, if any,
and interest on this Note in accordance with the Indenture, this Note shall no
longer be deemed Outstanding under the Indenture, shall cease to be entitled to
the benefits of the Indenture and shall thereafter be payable solely from the
funds provided for such payment.

          If an Event of Default shall occur, the principal of all the
Outstanding Notes may and, under certain circumstances, shall be declared due
and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture.

          The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided,
the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the
Corporation and the rights of the Holders of the Notes and Other Beneficiaries
under the Indenture at any time by the Corporation with, among other things, the
consent of the Holders of two-thirds of the aggregate principal amount of Class
A Notes at the time Outstanding, if affected thereby, and with the consent of
the Holders of two-thirds of the aggregate principal amount of Class B Notes at
the time Outstanding, if affected thereby. The Indenture also contains
provisions permitting the Holders of specified percentages in aggregate
principal amount of the Class A Notes at the time Outstanding or Other Senior
Beneficiaries or, if no Senior Obligations are Outstanding, the Holders of
specified percentages in aggregate principal amount of the Class B Notes at the
time Outstanding or Other Subordinate Beneficiaries, on behalf of the Holders of
all the Notes, to waive certain past defaults under the Indenture and their
consequences. Any such consent or waiver shall be conclusive and binding upon
the Registered Holder of this Note and upon all future Registered Holders hereof
and of any Note issued in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not
notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note.

          This Note is transferable by the Registered Holder hereof upon
surrender of this Note for transfer at the Principal Office of the Note
Registrar (which shall be the Trustee unless and until an Authenticating Agent
becomes the Note Registrar under the Indenture) or at the Principal Office of a
duly appointed Authenticating Agent (the "Authenticating Agent," which term
includes any successor Authenticating Agent under the Indenture), duly endorsed
or accompanied by a written instrument of

                                      B-8
<PAGE>

transfer in form satisfactory to the Note Registrar or the Authenticating Agent,
as the case may be, and executed by the Registered Holder hereof or his attorney
duly authorized in writing, with signature guarantees satisfactory to the Note
Registrar or the Authenticating Agent, as the case may be. Thereupon the
Corporation shall execute and the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent, as the
case may be, shall authenticate and deliver, in exchange for this Note, one or
more new fully registered Notes in the name of the transferee, of an authorized
denomination, in aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of
this Note, of the same series and bearing interest at the same rate. This Note
may also be exchanged for one or more other Notes of the same series upon
surrender hereof at the Principal Office of the Note Registrar or the Principal
Office of an Authenticating Agent. No Authenticating Agent will be initially
appointed with respect to the Series 2000-1C Notes. Notwithstanding the
foregoing provisions of this paragraph, no Series 2000-1C Note shall be required
to be transferred, (i) during a period beginning at the opening of business
fifteen days before any selection of Series 2000-1C Notes for redemption and
ending at the close of business on the day of such selection, or (ii) if such
Series 2000-1C Note has been selected for redemption in whole or in part.

          The Corporation may require payment by the Registered Holder hereof of
a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be
imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of this Note, other than
certain exchanges specifically exempted under the Indenture and not involving
any transfer.

          The Corporation, the Trustee, each Paying Agent, any Authenticating
Agent, the Note Registrar and any other agent of the Corporation may treat the
Person in whose name this Note is registered on the Note Register as the
absolute owner hereof for all purposes, whether or not this Note is overdue, and
neither the Corporation, the Trustee, any Paying Agent, any Authenticating
Agent, the Note Registrar nor any other such agent shall be affected by notice
to the contrary.

          IT IS HEREBY CERTIFIED, RECITED, COVENANTED AND DECLARED that all
acts, conditions and things required to have happened, to exist and to have been
performed precedent to and in the issuance of this Note have happened, do exist,
and have been performed in regular and due time, form and manner as so required.

          This Note shall not be valid or become obligatory for any purpose or
be entitled to any security or benefit under the Indenture until the Certificate
of Authentication hereon shall have been signed by the Trustee or by the
Authenticating Agent by the manual signature of one of its authorized
representatives.

          IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Corporation has caused this Note to be
