Eligible Lender Trustee undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties
as are specifically set forth in this Eligible Lender Trust Agreement, and no

Agreement against the Eligible Lender Trustee.

 

(b)                                 In
the absence of bad faith on its part, the Eligible Lender Trustee may
conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the
opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions furnished to the
Eligible Lender Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Eligible
Lender Trust Agreement; but in the case of any such certificates or opinions
which by any provisions hereof are specifically required to be furnished to the
Eligible Lender Trustee, the Eligible Lender Trustee shall be under a duty to
examine the same to determine whether or not they conform as to form

 

7

 

with the requirements of this Eligible Lender Trust
Agreement and whether or not they contain the statements required under this
Eligible Lender Trust Agreement.

 

(c)                                  The
Eligible Lender Trustee, in exercising the rights and powers vested in it by

representations of the Issuer set forth herein shall be taken as the statements
of the Issuer, and the Eligible Lender Trustee assumes no responsibility for

not be liable for failure of the Issuer to pay any tax or taxes in respect of

reasonable care has been exercised in the appointment, supervision, and
monitoring of the work performed.

 

Section

Lender Trustee.  Subject to the provisions and the limitations

expenses incurred without negligence or bad faith on its part, arising out of
or in connection with the acceptance or administration of this Eligible Lender
Trust Agreement (including without limitation any such losses, liability or
expenses arising from a breach of a representation, warranty or covenant in any
Servicing Agreement, Custodian Agreement or Trustee Guarantee Agreement),
including the costs and expenses of defending itself against any claim or
liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any of its powers
or duties hereunder.  Such
indemnification by Issuer shall survive the termination of this Eligible Lender

or other paper or document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed
or presented by the proper party or parties. 
The Eligible Lender Trustee may, whenever it determines in good faith
that it must seek further determination or interpretation of any matters
hereunder, consult with experts and with counsel (who may be 

 

8

 

counsel for the
Issuer, the Indenture Trustee or the Eligible Lender Trustee), and the opinion
of such counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in
respect of any action taken or suffered, and in respect of any determination
made by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance with the opinion of such
counsel.

 

Whenever in the
administration hereof the Eligible Lender Trustee shall deem it desirable that
a matter be proved or established prior to taking, suffering, or omitting any
action hereunder, the Eligible Lender Trustee (unless other evidence be herein
specifically prescribed) may, in the absence of bad faith on its part, rely
upon a certificate signed by an Issuer Representative.

 

The Eligible
Lender Trustee shall not be liable for any action taken, suffered, or omitted
by it in good faith and believed by it to be authorized or within the
discretion or rights or powers conferred upon it hereby; provided, however,
that the Eligible Lender Trustee shall be liable for its negligence or willful
misconduct in taking such action.

 

The Eligible
Lender Trustee is authorized to sell, assign, transfer, convey or repurchase
Eligible Loans in accordance with this Eligible Lender Trust Agreement and the

and acceptance thereof by said successor. 
In the event an Eligible Lender Trustee (or successor Eligible Lender
Trustee) is removed such removal shall not become effective until the Issuer
shall have appointed a successor and the successor Eligible Lender Trustee has
accepted appointment as such.

 

Section
4.11.  Successor
Eligible Lender Trustee.  In case at any time the Eligible Lender Trustee or any successor
Eligible Lender Trustee shall resign, be dissolved, or otherwise shall be

established the Trust, and the Initial Trust Agreement.  The Initial Trust Agreement is hereby
amended and restated in its entirety. 
The Trust shall be known as GMAC Education Loan Funding Trust-I.  Simultaneously with the execution hereof,
the Sponsor shall make a contribution to the Trust as the Sponsor’s
contribution, as described more fully in Exhibit A hereto, and thereafter may
transfer and assign the property described in the granting clauses of the
Indenture to the Trust under the terms of the Loan Sale Agreement and other
assignment agreements by and between the Sponsor, as seller or assignor, and
the Trust, as purchaser or assignee, and may assume certain obligations under
and in accordance with the Transaction Documents.  Upon the making of such contribution, the Delaware Trustee shall
record the amount thereof on the books of the Trust and the investment of the
Sponsor therein.  It is the intention of
the parties hereto that the Trust shall constitute a statutory trust under the
Trust Statute (for which the Delaware Trustee has filed a certificate of trust with the Secretary of State of the
State of Delaware pursuant to Section 3810(a) of the Delaware Statutory
Trust Act in substantially the form attached to the Initial Trust Agreement),
that this Trust Agreement shall constitute the governing instrument of such
Trust and that the Certificateholders shall hold all of the beneficial
interests in the Trust.  The rights of
the Certificateholders shall be determined herein and the relationship between
the parties hereto created by this Trust Agreement shall not constitute indebtedness
for any purpose.  Subject to Section
2.08 hereof, it is the intention of the parties hereto that, solely for
purposes of federal income taxes, state and local income and franchise taxes,
and any other taxes imposed on, measured by or based upon gross or net income,
(i) if there is only one Certificateholder, the Trust shall be treated as
a disregarded entity separate from its owner pursuant to Treasury Regulation
301.7701-2(c)(2) and (ii) if there is more than one Certificateholder, the
Trust shall be treated as a partnership, and that the provisions of this Trust
Agreement shall be construed in accordance with such intent.  The parties hereto agree to take no action
inconsistent with such treatment, unless required otherwise by applicable law.

 

Section
2.02.  Name.  The name of
the Trust shall be GMAC Education Loan Funding Trust-I, in which name the
Delaware Trustee solely in such capacity on behalf of the Trust may, subject to
the terms hereof and the other Transaction Documents, conduct business, make
and execute loans, contracts, security instruments and other instruments,
acquire, pledge, convey and transfer property and sue or be sued.

 

Section
2.03.  Office and Situs of Trust.  The Trust
shall be located and administered in the State of Delaware.  The Trust shall not have any employees in
any state other than Delaware; provided, however, that nothing herein shall

Delaware Trustee) from having employees within or without the

(xv)                            The
Trust will not guarantee any indebtedness of or make loans to a
Certificateholder or its affiliates.

 

(xvi)                         Except
for the Delaware Trustee’s standard practice regarding maintenance of funds and
assets, the funds and other assets of the Trust will not be commingled with
those of any other Person and shall be maintained as identifiable funds and
assets held in the name of the Trust.

 

(xvii)                      The Trust
shall not enter into any contract or agreement with any of its Certificateholders
or their affiliates except on terms that are intrinsically fair, commercially
reasonable, and substantially similar to those that would be available on an
arms-length basis with third parties, and transact all business with its
Certificateholders and or their affiliates pursuant to written, enforceable
agreements with pricing and material terms established at the inception that
will not be amendable except with written consent of each of the parties to the
agreement).

 

(xviii)                   The
Trust shall maintain adequate capital for the normal obligations reasonably
foreseeable for the size and character of the activities of the Trust and in
light of its proposed operations and liabilities (provided that this clause
shall not be deemed a commitment by any Certificateholder to deposit additional
amounts into the Trust).

 

(xix)                           The
Trust shall not enter into any agreements, written or otherwise, pursuant to
which the Certificateholder agrees to extend credit or make payment or
contributions to or for or assume, guaranty or otherwise be obligated for the
payment or performance of the Trust; provided, however, that any
Certificateholder may make any deposit to the Trust that such Certificateholder
determines to be in the Certificateholder’s best interest).

 

Section
2.10.  Appointment of Delaware
Trustee.  The Certificateholders hereby appoint the
Delaware Trustee as trustee of the Trust effective as of the date hereof, to
have all of the rights, powers, authority, authorization and duties set forth
herein and in the Trust Statute.

Section
2.11.  Federal Income Tax
Allocations.  Net income of the Trust for any period, as
determined for federal income tax purposes (and each item of income, gain, loss
and deduction entering into the computation thereof), shall be allocated to the
Certificateholders on a pro rata basis in accordance with their respective
Percentage Interests.

 

Section
2.12.  Limitations on
Certificateholders.  Each Certificateholder by accepting an
interest in the Trust agrees that it will not enter into any agreements,
written or otherwise, between the Certificateholder and the Trust or any other
party (other than the obligations of the Certificateholder under
Sections 5.03, 6.08 and Article VII hereof) pursuant to which the
Certificateholder agrees to extend credit or make payment or contributions to
or for or assume, guaranty or otherwise be obligated for the payment or
performance of the Trust.  This provision
shall not prohibit any Certificateholder from making any capital contributions
to the Trust that such Certificateholder determines to be in the
Certificateholder’s best interest.

 

Section
2.13.  Administration. 
Unless and until otherwise notified in writing by the Required
Certificateholders, the Delaware Trustee is hereby authorized and directed to
take and receive instructions from the Administrator pursuant to the
Administration Agreement with respect to matters relating to the Trust to the
same extent and with the same effect and protection as if any such instructions
were received from the Required Certificateholders subject to the provisions
hereof.  The Administrator shall be
entitled to the Administration Fee for services provided pursuant to the
provisions hereof, which compensation is hereby acknowledged as reasonable
compensation by the Administrator and the Certificateholders.  The Administration Fee shall be payable
monthly as provided herein and in the Indenture.

 

Section
2.14.  Additional Contributions. 
Any Certificateholder may make an additional capital contribution (which
capital contribution may be made with funds advanced to the Certificateholder
from the Administrator) to the Trust to enable the Trust to carry out any
instructions of such Certificateholder that are permitted by the Transaction
Documents, including an optional capital contribution to enable the Trust to
effect a purchase of Notes.  If
such Certificateholder makes such a capital contribution, the Delaware Trustee
shall establish a separate trust account designated for the deposit of such
capital contributions.  If a
Certificateholder makes a capital contribution to enable the Trust to take any
action, any proceeds that result from such action in an amount up to the amount
of the capital contribution shall, if so directed by the Certificateholder, be
credited to such separate account and shall be distributed to the
Certificateholder that made such capital contribution.

 

Section
2.15.  Principal
Place of Business. 
The Trust shall maintain its principal place of business and chief
executive office in the State of Delaware.

 

Section
2.16.  Liability of the
Certificateholders and the Delaware Trustee.  To the fullest extent permitted by law, no
Certificateholder shall have any personal liability for any liability or
obligation of the Trust for any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and
expenses of the Trust.  The Delaware
Trustee shall not have any liability or obligation with respect to the
Certificateholders except as otherwise provided herein.

ARTICLE III

 

TRUST CERTIFICATES AND TRANSFER OF
INTERESTS

 

Section
3.01.  Initial  Beneficial
Ownership. 
Upon the formation of the Trust by the contribution by the Sponsor
pursuant to Section 2.01 and until the issuance of Certificates, the Sponsor
shall be the sole beneficial owner of the Trust.

 

Section
3.02.  The Certificates.

 

(a)          The
Certificates are issuable in fully registered form in minimum Percentage
Interests of 10%.  Each Certificate
shall be substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit C to this Trust
Agreement.  All Certificates may have
set forth thereon such information, legends, and text as may be necessary or
appropriate to conform to any applicable rules and regulations of any
governmental authority or any usage or requirement of law with respect
thereto.  The Certificates shall be
executed on behalf of the Trust by manual or facsimile signature of an
Authorized Officer of the Delaware Trustee. 
Certificates bearing the manual or facsimile signatures of individuals
who were, at the time when such signatures shall have been affixed, authorized
to sign on behalf of the Delaware Trustee, shall be duly authorized, validly
issued and entitled to the benefits of this Trust Agreement, notwithstanding
that such individuals or any of them shall have ceased to be so authorized
prior to the authentication and delivery of such Certificates or did not hold
such offices at the date of authentication and delivery of such Certificates.

 

(b)         A
transferee of a Certificate shall become a Certificateholder and shall be
entitled to the rights and subject to the obligations of a Certificateholder
hereunder upon such transferee’s acceptance of a Certificate duly registered in
such transferee’s name pursuant to Section 3.04.

 

Section
3.03.  Authentication of Certificates. 
No Certificate shall entitle its Certificateholder to any benefit under
this Trust Agreement or be valid for any purpose unless there shall appear on
such Certificate a certificate of authentication substantially in the form set
forth in Exhibit C, executed by the Trust by manual signature of the
Delaware Trustee; such authentication shall constitute conclusive evidence that
such Certificate has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder.  All Certificates shall be dated the date of
their authentication.

 

Section
3.04.  Registration of Transfer
and Exchange of Certificates.

 

(a)                                  The
Delaware Trustee shall keep or cause to be kept, at the office or agency
maintained pursuant to Section 3.08, a Register in which, subject to such
reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Registrar shall provide for the
registration of Certificates and of transfers and exchanges of Certificates as
herein provided.

 

(b)         The
Certificates have not been and will not be registered under the Securities Act
and will not be listed on any exchange. 
No transfer of a Certificate shall be made unless such transfer is made
pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act and
any applicable state securities laws or is exempt from the registration 

 

13

 

requirements under the Securities Act and such state
securities laws.  In the event that a
transfer is to be made in reliance upon an exemption from the Securities Act
and state securities laws, in order to assure compliance with the Securities
Act and such laws, the Certificateholder desiring to effect such transfer and
such Certificateholder’s prospective transferee shall each certify to the
Trust, the Delaware Trustee, the Administrator and the transferring
Certificateholder in writing the facts surrounding the transfer in
substantially the forms set forth in Exhibit D (the “Transferor Letter”) and
Exhibit E (the “Investment Letter”) or Exhibit F (the “Rule 144A Letter”), as
applicable.  Except in the case of a
transfer as to which the proposed transferee has provided a Rule 144A Letter
with respect to a Rule 144A transaction, there shall also be delivered to the
Trust an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such transfer may be made
pursuant to an exemption from the Securities Act, which Opinion of Counsel
shall not be an expense of the Trust, the Delaware Trustee (unless it is the
transferee from whom such opinion is to be obtained) or of the Administrator.  Each Certificateholder of a Certificate
desiring to effect such a transfer shall, and does hereby agree to, indemnify
the Trust, the Delaware Trustee and the Administrator against any liability
that may result if the transfer is not so exempt or is not made in accordance
with federal and state securities laws.

 

(c)          No
transfer, sale, pledge or other disposition of the Certificates shall be made
unless prior to such transfer, sale, pledge or other disposition, the Trust
shall have received either (i) a representation letter from the transferee
of such Certificate, acceptable to and in form and substance satisfactory to
the Trust, to the effect that such a transferee is not an employee benefit plan
subject to Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code, or a person acting
on behalf of any such plan or (ii) in the case of any Certificate
presented for registration in the name of an employee benefit plan subject to
ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code (or comparable provisions of any subsequent
enactments), or a trustee of any such plan or any other person acting on behalf
of any such plan, an Opinion of Counsel satisfactory to the Trust, the Delaware
Trustee and the Administrator to the effect that the purchase or holding of
such Certificate will not result in the Trust or the Trust Estate being deemed
to be “plan assets” and subject to the prohibited transaction provisions of
ERISA and the Code and will not subject the Trust, Delaware Trustee, the
Administrator or the transferring Certificateholder to any obligation in
addition to those undertaken in this Trust Agreement.  Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary herein, in the
event any purported transfer of any Certificate is made without delivery of the
representation letter referred to above, such representation shall be deemed to
have been made by the transferee by its acceptance of such Certificate.  In addition, any purported transfer of a
Certificate to or on behalf of an employee benefit plan subject to ERISA or to
the Code without the delivery to the Trust, the Delaware Trustee, and the
Administrator of an Opinion of Counsel as described above shall be void and of
no effect.  Any certificate or Opinion
of Counsel furnished pursuant to this Section 3.04 may be relied on
conclusively by the Trust, Delaware Trustee, the Administrator and the
transferring Certificateholder in determining whether the provisions hereof
have been complied with.

 

(d)         No
transfer shall be effective if immediately after such transfer there would be
more than one hundred Beneficial Owners of Certificates.  Any purported transfer in violation of the
provisions of this Section 3.04(d) shall be void ab initio and the Delaware 

 

14

 

Trustee shall have no
liability in connection with a transfer in violation of the provisions of this
Section 3.04(d).

 

(e)          The
foregoing provisions shall not prevent the assignment by a Certificateholder of
all or any part of its right to receive distributions in respect of its
interest in its Certificate, but such assignment shall effect no change in
ownership of the Trust.

 

(f)            The
preparation and delivery of the certificate and opinions referred to in this
Section 3.04 shall not be an expense of the Trust, the Delaware Trustee or the
Administrator.

 

(g)         Upon
surrender for registration of transfer of any Certificate at the office or
agency maintained pursuant to Section 3.08, the Delaware Trustee shall
execute, authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or
transferees, one or more new Certificates in authorized denominations stating
the aggregate amount and Percentage Interest so transferred dated the date of
authentication by the Delaware Trustee. 
At the option of a Certificateholder, Certificates may be exchanged for
other Certificates of authorized Percentage Interests and denominations of a
like aggregate amount upon surrender of the Certificates to be exchanged at the
office or agency maintained pursuant to Section 3.08.

 

(h)         Every
Certificate presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange
shall be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory
to the Trust and duly executed by the Certificateholder or such
Certificateholder’s attorney duly authorized in writing.  Each Certificate surrendered for
registration of transfer or exchange shall be cancelled and subsequently
disposed of by the Trust in accordance with its customary practice.

 

(i)             No
service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of
Certificates, but the Trust or the Delaware Trustee may require payment of a
sum sufficient to cover any tax or governmental charge that may be imposed in
connection with any transfer or exchange of Certificates.

 

(j)             Notwithstanding
any other provision herein or elsewhere, the Trust, the Delaware Trustee and
the Administrator (i) shall not have any obligation to determine whether
any transfer or exchange of a Certificate is permitted under or in accordance
with this Trust Agreement; (ii) shall not have any personal liability to
any person in connection with any transfer or exchange or proposed or purported
transfer or exchange (and/or registration thereof) that is not permitted under
or in accordance with this Trust Agreement; (iii) shall be entitled to
rely (and shall be fully justified and protected in so relying) on the Register
as to the identity of the Certificateholders and as to the Certificates and the
Percentage Interests and denominations thereof evidenced thereby.

 

(k)          Notwithstanding
anything contained herein to the contrary, the Delaware Trustee shall not be
responsible for ascertaining whether any transfer complies with the
registration provisions or exemptions from the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended, the 

 

15

 

Securities Act of 1934, as amended, applicable state
securities law or the Investment Company Act; provided, however,
that if a certificate is specifically required to be delivered to the Delaware
Trustee by a purchaser or transferee of a Certificate, the Delaware Trustee
shall be under a duty to examine the same to determine whether it conforms to
the requirements of this Trust Agreement and shall promptly notify the party
delivering the same if such certificate does not so conform.

 

Section
3.05.  Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost
or Stolen Certificates.  If (i) any mutilated
Certificate is surrendered to the Trust and the Registrar or the Trust receives
evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of the
Certificate, and (ii) there is delivered to the Registrar, the Trust, the
Delaware Trustee and the Administrator such security or indemnity as may be
required by them to save each of them harmless, then, in the absence of notice
to the Registrar or the Trust that the Certificate has been acquired by a protected
purchaser, the Delaware Trustee shall execute and the Delaware Trustee or the
Registrar shall authenticate and deliver, in exchange for or in lieu of any
such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Certificate, a new Certificate of
like tenor, amount and Percentage Interest but bearing a number not
contemporaneously outstanding.  Upon the
issuance of any new Certificate under this Section 3.05, the Trust or the
Delaware Trustee may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax
or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any
transfer or exchange of the Certificate and any other reasonable expenses
(including the reasonable fees and expenses of the Trust, Delaware Trustee, the
Administrator and the Registrar) connected therewith.  Any duplicate Certificate issued pursuant to this Section 3.05
shall constitute complete and indefeasible evidence of ownership in the Trust,
as if originally issued, whether or not the lost, stolen or destroyed
Certificate shall be found at any time.

 

Section
3.06.  Persons Deemed Owners. 
Prior to due presentation of a Certificate for registration of transfer,
the Trust, Delaware Trustee, the Administrator and the Registrar may treat the
Person in whose name any Certificate is registered in the Register as the owner
of such Certificate for the purpose of receiving distributions pursuant to
Section 4.01(b) and for all other purposes whatsoever, and none of the
Trust, Delaware Trustee, the Administrator or the Registrar shall be bound by
any notice to the contrary.

 

Section
3.07.  Access to List of
Certificateholders’ Names and Addresses.  The Trust shall furnish or cause to be furnished to the
Administrator or a Certificateholder, within 15 days after receipt by the
Delaware Trustee of a written request therefor from the Administrator or the
Certificateholder, a list, in such form as the Administrator or the
Certificateholder may reasonably require, of the names and addresses of the
Certificateholders then registered in the Register as the owner of
Certificates.  Each Certificateholder,
by receiving and holding a Certificate, shall be deemed to have agreed not to
hold any of the other Certificateholders, the Trust, the Delaware Trustee, the
Administrator, or the Registrar accountable by reason of the disclosure of its
name and address, regardless of the source from which such information was
derived.

 

Section
3.08.  Maintenance of Office or Agency. 
The Trust will maintain an office or agency in Wilmington, Delaware
where Certificates may be surrendered for registration of transfer or
exchange.  The Trust will maintain an
office at the address stated in Section 10.05 

 

16

 

hereof where notices and
demands to or upon the Trust, the Delaware Trustee, the Administrator, and the
Registrar in respect of this Trust Agreement may be served.

 

Section
3.09.  Terms of Certificates Binding. 
Each Certificateholder, by assenting to the acquisition by it of a
Certificate, agrees to be bound by the terms and conditions of the Certificates
and of this Trust Agreement, including any supplements or amendments thereto or
hereto, and to perform the obligations of a Certificateholder as set forth
therein or herein, in all respects as if it were a signatory hereto.  This undertaking is made for the benefit of
the Trust, the Delaware Trustee, the Administrator, the Registrar, and all
other Certificateholders, if any.

 

ARTICLE IV

 

DISTRIBUTIONS AND PAYMENTS

 

Section
4.01.  Distribution of Payments.

 

(a)          Until
the Trust shall have received written notice from the Indenture Trustee that
the Indenture shall have been discharged pursuant to its terms, all revenues
and receipts of any kind whatsoever generated by, remitted in respect of or
relating to the Trust Estate and other payments and receipts of any kind with
respect to the Trust Estate or otherwise included in the Trust Estate shall, if
received directly by the Delaware Trustee, forthwith after receipt, be paid
over by the Delaware Trustee to the Indenture Trustee without deduction,
set-off or adjustment of any kind for distribution in accordance with the
provisions of the Indenture; provided, that neither the making of such payments
to, nor the receipt of such payments by, the Indenture Trustee or any other
person shall ever be deemed to constitute the Indenture Trustee or any such
person as an income beneficiary hereunder, it being understood that all such
payments will be made pursuant to contractual obligations under the Indenture;
and provided, further, that the Delaware Trustee shall not be required to turn
over any such amounts received from the Trustee, or received on account of any
amounts referred to in clause first of Section 4.01(b) hereof or
Article VII.

 

(b)                                 Except
as otherwise provided in paragraph (a) of this Section, (i) all payments
and amounts actually received by or on behalf of the Delaware Trustee from the
Trust Estate sources pursuant to the Indenture and (ii) all other
revenues, receipts and other payments of any kind whatsoever generated by, remitted
or received in respect of or relating to the Trust Estate or otherwise included
in the Trust Estate and not pledged or required to be pledged pursuant to the
Indenture or released from the lien of the Indenture (all to the extent not
previously distributed) (collectively, the “Payments”), each to the extent
received by or on behalf of the Delaware Trustee, shall be distributed
forthwith upon receipt by the Delaware Trustee in the following order of
priority: first,
so much of such Payments as shall be required to pay or reimburse the Trust
Company and the Delaware Trustee for any fees, expenses, indemnities or other
amounts not otherwise paid or reimbursed to the Trust Company or the Delaware
Trustee pursuant to the Indenture or otherwise as to which such Person is
entitled to be paid or reimbursed hereunder shall be retained by the Delaware
Trustee; second,
so much of the remainder of such Payments as shall be required to pay or
reimburse the Administrator in performing its responsibilities 

 

17

 

hereunder and under the
Administration Agreement for any Administration Fee, expenses, indemnities or
other amounts not otherwise paid or reimbursed to the Administrator pursuant to
the Indenture or otherwise as to which such Person is entitled to be paid or
reimbursed shall be paid or reimbursed to the Administrator; and third,
the balance, if any, of such Payment or amount remaining thereafter shall be
promptly distributed to the Certificateholders, pro rata based on their respective
Percentage Interests, without deduction, set-off or adjustment of any kind;
provided, that neither the making of such Payments to, nor the receipt of such
Payments by, a Certificateholder or any other Person shall ever be deemed to
constitute a Certificateholder or any such Person as an income beneficiary
hereunder, and provided further, that the Delaware Trustee shall not be
required to turn over any such Payment as compensation or reimbursement of
expenses.

 

Section
4.02.  Payments From Trust Estate
Only.  All payments to be made by the
Delaware Trustee under this Trust Agreement or by the Trust (other than
payments made pursuant to Sections 2.05(a)(ix), 2.12 and 2.14 with funds to be
provided by a Certificateholder) shall be made only from the Trust Estate and
the income and proceeds from or related to the Trust Estate and only to the
extent that Delaware Trustee shall have actually received such income or
proceeds from the Trust Estate and such proceeds are not required to be
remitted to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to Section 4.01(a) hereof or the
Indenture.  Each Certificateholder
agrees that it will look solely to the Trust Estate to the extent available for
payment as herein provided and that, except as specifically provided in Section
6.01 hereof, the Trust Company shall not be liable in its individual capacity
to any Certificateholder for any amounts payable under this Trust Agreement and
shall not be subject to any liability in its individual capacity under this
Trust Agreement.  This Section is
intended solely to limit the liability of the Delaware Trustee and shall have
no effect on the obligations of the Certificateholders under this Trust
Agreement.  This Section 4.02 does not
limit the liability of the Delaware Trustee set forth in Section 6.01
hereof.

 

Section
4.03.  Method of Payment.  Unless
otherwise directed by a Certificateholder, all amounts payable to the
Certificateholder pursuant to this Trust Agreement shall be paid to it in
immediately available funds by transfer to a banking institution with bank wire
transfer facilities for the account of the Certificateholder, as the Delaware
Trustee may be instructed from time to time in writing by the
Certificateholder.

 

Section
4.04.  Trust Payment Date
Statement.

 

(a)          Based
on the reports received by the Delaware Trustee pursuant to the Indenture, the
Delaware Trustee, or the Administrator if requested by the Delaware Trustee
pursuant to the Administration Agreement, shall prepare, or shall cause to be
prepared for each payment or distribution made to the Delaware Trustee,
Administrator, or Certificateholders pursuant to Section 4.01(b) a
statement substantially in the form of Exhibit B attached hereto (the
“Trust Payment Date Statement”).  In
connection with any payments or distributions to the Delaware Trustee, the
Administrator or the Certificateholders pursuant to Section 4.01(b), the
Delaware Trustee, or the Administrator if requested by the Delaware Trustee
pursuant to the Administration Agreement, shall deliver the Trust Payment Date
Statement to each Certificateholder or 

 

18

 

as instructed by the Certificateholder in a written
Notice to the Delaware Trustee and the Administrator.

 

(b)                                 The
Delaware Trustee makes no representations or warranties as to the accuracy of
the information contained in the reports generated by the Trust or the
Administrator pursuant to the Indenture or, to the extent that the Trust
Payment Date Statement contains or relies upon information provided by the reports
provided by the Trust or the Administrator pursuant to the Indenture, the Trust
Payment Date Statement.  The Delaware
Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation as to the facts stated in
the reports provided by the Trust pursuant to the Indenture, and may rely upon
each of the reports provided by the Trust pursuant to the Indenture delivered
to it by or on behalf of the Trustee.

 

ARTICLE V

 

DUTIES OF DELAWARE TRUSTEE

 

Section
5.01.  Notice of Default.  In the event
the Delaware Trustee shall have actual knowledge of an Event of Default under
the Indenture, the Delaware Trustee shall give prompt telephonic notice (to the
extent telephone numbers are on file with the Delaware Trustee) followed by, or
in the alternative, written notice by facsimile or overnight courier for
receipt within 48 hours of discovery thereof to the Sponsor and the Indenture
Trustee.  Subject to the terms of
Section 5.03 hereof, the Delaware Trustee shall take or refrain from
taking such action as the Delaware Trustee shall be instructed in writing by
the Required Certificateholders.  If the
Delaware Trustee shall not have received such instructions within 20 days after
giving written notice of such event to the Certificateholders (or within such
shorter period of time as may be specified in such notice or required under the
circumstances), the Delaware Trustee, subject to instructions subsequently
received from the Required Certificateholders pursuant to the preceding
sentence, may, but shall be under no duty to, take or refrain from taking any
action with respect thereto as the Delaware Trustee shall deem advisable and in
the best interests of the Certificateholders and shall not have liability to
any Person for any action or inaction. 
For all purposes of this Trust Agreement, in the absence of actual
knowledge of an officer of the Delaware Trustee at its address specified in
Section 10.05 hereof, the Delaware Trustee shall not be deemed to have
knowledge of any event referred to in the first sentence of this Section unless
it receives written notice thereof from a Certificateholder or the Indenture
Trustee.

 

Section
5.02.  Action Upon Instruction.

 

(a)          Whenever
the Delaware Trustee is (i) unable to decide between alternative courses
of action permitted or required by the terms of this Trust Agreement or under
any Transaction Document, (ii) unsure as to the application of any
provision of this Trust Agreement or any Transaction Document or any such
provision is ambiguous as to its application, or is, or appears to be, in conflict
with any other applicable provision or (iii) in the event that this Trust
Agreement permits any determination by the Delaware Trustee or is silent or is
incomplete as to the course of action that the Delaware Trustee is required to
take with respect to a particular set of facts, the Delaware Trustee may give
Notice (in such form as shall be appropriate under the circumstances) to the 

 

19

 

Certificateholders and the Administrator requesting
instruction and, to the extent that the Delaware Trustee acts or refrains from
acting in good faith in accordance with any such instruction received from the
Required Certificateholders or the Administrator, the Delaware Trustee shall
not be liable, on account of such action or inaction, to any Person.  If the Delaware Trustee shall not have
received appropriate instruction within 10 days of such notice (or within such
shorter period of time as reasonably may be specified in such notice or may be
necessary under the circumstances) it may, but shall be under no duty to, take
or refrain from taking such action not inconsistent with this Agreement or the
Transaction Documents, as it shall deem to be in the best interests of the
Certificateholders, and shall not have liability to any Person for such action
or inaction.

 

(b)                                 Notwithstanding
anything in this Trust Agreement to the contrary, neither the Delaware Trustee
nor any of its respective agents, shall be required to take or refrain from
taking any action under this Trust Agreement, the Transaction Documents or any
other agreement, or exercise any of their respective rights and powers, if the
Delaware Trustee shall reasonably determine (without any obligation to make any
such determination), or shall have been advised by counsel, that such action or
inaction (i) is contrary to the terms of this Trust Agreement, the terms of the
Transaction Documents or any other agreement to which the Delaware Trustee or
the Trust is a party, (ii) is likely to result in a breach of its duties
hereunder or those of the Trust Company, (iii) to the actual knowledge of an
officer of the Delaware Trustee that is responsible for the administration of
the Trust, would adversely affect the tax status of the Trust, or (iv) is
otherwise contrary to applicable law.

 

(c)                                  The
Delaware Trustee shall not be required to expend or risk its own funds or
otherwise incur financial liability in the performance of any of its respective
duties hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its respective rights or powers,
if there is reasonable ground for believing that the repayment of such funds or
adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to
the Delaware Trustee and none of the provisions contained in this Trust
Agreement shall in any event require the Delaware Trustee to perform, or be
responsible for the manner of performance of, any of the obligations of any
other party under this Trust Agreement.

 

(d)                                 Subject
to the terms of Sections 5.01, 5.03 and 5.06 hereof and the Administration
Agreement, the Required Certificateholders or the Administrator may by written
instruction direct the Delaware Trustee in the management of the Trust.  Such direction may be exercised at any time
by written instruction of the Required Certificateholders or the
Administrator.  Prior to taking any
action on behalf of the Trust under this Trust Agreement or the Transaction
Documents, the Delaware Trustee may request and, if so requested, shall receive
written instructions of the Required Certificateholders or the Administrator
specifying the manner in which the Delaware Trustee shall take such
action.  The Delaware Trustee shall not
be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in reliance on
the instructions of such Required Certificateholders or the Administrator.

 

(e)                                  The
Certificateholders agree to not provide any direction to the Delaware Trustee
to take any action that is contrary to the terms of this Trust Agreement, the 

 

20

 

Transaction Documents, any other agreements to which
the Delaware Trustee or the Trust is a party, or is otherwise contrary to
applicable law.

 

(f)                                    The
Delaware Trustee shall not have the power, except upon the direction of each
Certificateholder, to (a) remove or replace the Eligible Lender Trustee,
any Servicer, the Administrator or any other administrator or (b) except
as expressly provided in the Transaction Documents, sell the Financed Student
Loans after the termination of the Indenture. 
The Delaware Trustee shall take the actions referred to in the preceding
sentence only upon written instructions signed by the Certificateholders.

 

Section
5.03.  Indemnification.  The Delaware
Trustee shall not be required to take or refrain from taking any action under
this Trust Agreement, the Transaction Documents or any other agreement (other
than the actions specified in the first sentence of Section 5.01 hereof) if the
Delaware Trustee shall reasonably determine, or shall have been advised by
counsel, that such actions may result in personal liability of the Trust
Company or require it to risk or advance its own funds unless the Trust Company
and the Delaware Trustee shall have been indemnified by Certificateholders, in
manner and form reasonably satisfactory to the Trust Company and the Delaware
Trustee, against any liability, fee, cost or expense (including reasonable
legal fees and expenses) which may be incurred or charged in connection
therewith; and if the Required Certificateholders shall have directed the
Delaware Trustee to take or refrain from taking any such action, the
Certificateholders so directing the Delaware Trustee agree to furnish such
indemnity as shall be required and, in addition, to the extent not otherwise
paid pursuant to the provisions of this Trust Agreement, to pay the reasonable
compensation of the Delaware Trustee for the services performed or to be
performed by it pursuant to such direction.

 

Section
5.04.  No Duties Except as
Specified in Transaction Documents.  The Delaware Trustee shall have no duty or
obligation to manage, control, use, make any payment in respect of, register,
record, sell, dispose of or otherwise deal with any of the Trust Estate, or
otherwise to take or refrain from taking any action as Delaware Trustee or on
behalf of the Trust whatsoever under or in connection with this Trust Agreement
or the Transaction Documents except as (i) expressly provided by the terms
hereof or (ii) to the extent not so provided, as expressly provided in written
instructions received pursuant to Section 5.01 or 5.02 hereof; and no implied
duties or obligations shall be read into this Trust Agreement against the
Delaware Trustee.  The Delaware Trustee

any records pertaining thereto.

 

Section
5.05.  No Action Except Under
Specified Documents or Instructions.  The Delaware

Agreement, (ii) in accordance with the powers granted to or the authority
conferred upon the Delaware Trustee pursuant to this Trust Agreement, or
(iii) in accordance with the express terms hereof or written instructions
received pursuant to Section 5.01 or 5.02 hereof.

 

Section
5.06.  Action by

direction of the Certificateholders to take any Bankruptcy Action.  The consent of the Delaware Trustee shall be
required prior to the commencement by 

 

21

 

the Trust of any
Bankruptcy Action.  To the fullest
extent permitted by applicable law, the Delaware Trustee shall not be required
to consent to the commencement by the Trust of any Bankruptcy Action unless it
has received a certificate signed by a nationally recognized accounting firm
(the “Accountant’s Certificate”) certifying that such accounting firm reasonably
believes that the Trust is insolvent. 
The Delaware Trustee may conclusively rely upon the Accountant’s
Certificate.

 

Section
5.07.  Discharge of Liens. 
Notwithstanding anything in this Trust Agreement to the contrary, the
Delaware Trustee agrees that it will, at its own cost and expense (and not at
the expense of the Trust), promptly take all action as may be necessary to
discharge any liens on any part of the Trust Estate which are attributable to
actions by or claims against the Trust Company that are not related to the
ownership of the Trust Estate or the administration of the Trust Estate or the
transactions contemplated by this Trust Agreement.

DELAWARE TRUSTEE

 

Section
6.01.  Acceptance of Trusts and Duties.  The
Trust Company accepts the trusts hereby created and agrees to perform the same
but only upon the terms of this Trust Agreement.  The Delaware Trustee is authorized and directed to execute and
deliver the Transaction Documents to which the Trust is to be party and each certificate
or other document attached as an exhibit to or contemplated by the Transaction
Documents to which the Trust is to be a party, as evidenced conclusively by the
Delaware Trustee’s execution thereof. 
In addition to the foregoing, the Delaware Trustee is authorized, but
shall not be obligated, to take all actions required of the Trust pursuant to
the Transaction Documents.  Subject to
Sections 2.09 and 5.06, the Delaware Trustee is further authorized from time to
time to take such action as the Required Certificateholders instruct in writing
with respect to the Transaction Documents. 
The Delaware Trustee declares that it shall hold the Trust Estate, and
all amounts received by it thereunder and hereunder in trust, upon the terms
herein set forth, on behalf of the Trust for the use and benefit of all present
and future Certificateholders.  The
Delaware Trustee also agrees to receive and disburse all money actually
received by it constituting part of the Trust Estate upon the terms
hereof.  Notwithstanding anything in
this Trust Agreement to the contrary, the Trust Company shall not be liable,
answerable or accountable in its individual capacity to any Person under any
circumstances, except that such limitation shall not limit the liability, if
any, of the Trust Company to the Certificateholders (i) for the Trust
Company’s own willful misconduct, bad faith, gross negligence or reckless
disregard of the duties involved in the conduct of its offices hereunder or the
willful misconduct, bad faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard of the
duties involved in the conduct of its offices hereunder performed through its
agent not appointed with due care, (ii) in the case of the inaccuracy of
any of the Trust Company’s representations or warranties contained in Section
6.03 hereof, (iii) for taxes, fees or other charges on, based on or
measured by any fees, commissions or compensation received by it for acting as
Delaware Trustee in connection with any of the transactions contemplated by
this Trust Agreement or any other agreement contemplated by this Trust
Agreement, or (iv) the failure to use ordinary care to disburse in
accordance with the terms hereof money actually received by it.  In particular, but not by way of limitation:

 

22

 

(a)                                  the
Trust Company shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith
by any officer of the Delaware Trustee;

 

(b)                                 under

Certificateholders

 

(d)                                 no
provision of this Trust Agreement shall require the Trust Company to expend or
risk funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any
of the Delaware Trustee’s duties or powers hereunder, if the Trust Company
believes or is advised by its legal counsel that repayment of such funds or
adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not assured or provided to
its reasonable satisfaction;

 

(e)                                  under
no circumstance shall the Trust Company be liable for any representation,
warranty, covenant, or obligation or indebtedness of the Trust hereunder or
under the Transaction Documents or any other agreement, document or certificate
contemplated by the foregoing;

 

(f)                                    the
Trust Company shall not be liable with respect to any action taken or omitted
to be taken by the Administrator and the Trust Company shall not be liable for
performing or supervising the performance of any obligations or duties under
this Trust Agreement, the Administration Agreement or the Indenture, or under
any other document contemplated hereby or thereby, which are to be performed by
the Administrator or any other Person under such documents;

 

(g)                                 the
Trust Company shall not be responsible for or in respect of the recitals
herein, the validity or sufficiency of this Trust Agreement, or for the due
execution hereof by the Sponsor or the Administrator or for the form,
character, genuineness, sufficiency, value or validity of any of the Trust
Estate or for or in respect of the validity or sufficiency of the Indenture or
any other document contemplated thereby to which the Trust Company is not a
party, and the Trust Company shall in no event assume or incur any liability,
duty or obligation to the Trustee, the Certificateholders, or the Administrator
other than is expressly provided for herein;

 

(h)                                 notwithstanding
anything contained herein or in any of the Transaction Documents to the
contrary, neither the Trust Company nor the Delaware Trustee shall be required
to take any action in any jurisdiction other than in the State of Delaware if
the taking of such action will (i) require the consent or approval or
authorization or order of or the giving of notice to, or the registration with
or taking of any action in respect of, any state or other governmental
authority or agency of any jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware; (ii)
result in any fee, tax or other governmental charge under the laws of any
jurisdiction or any political subdivisions thereof in existence on the date
hereof other than the State of Delaware becoming payable by the Trust Company;
or (iii) subject the Trust Company to personal jurisdiction in any jurisdiction
other than the State of Delaware for 

 

23

 

causes of action arising from acts unrelated to the
consummation of the transactions by the Trust Company or the Delaware Trustee,
as the case may be, contemplated hereby;

 

(i)                                     no
provision of this Trust Agreement shall require the Trust Company to monitor or
otherwise supervise the actions or inactions of or the performance by the
Administrator or any sub-administrators;

 

(j)                                     the
Delaware Trustee shall be deemed to have discharged its duties and
responsibilities hereunder and under the other Transaction Documents to the
extent the Administrator or any other administrator has agreed in the
Administration Agreement or the related administration agreement, as
applicable, to perform any act or to discharge any duty of the Delaware Trustee
hereunder or under any other Transaction Document, and the Delaware Trustee
shall not be held liable for the default or failure of the Administrator or any
other administrator to carry out its obligations under the Administration
Agreement or related administration agreement, as applicable;

 

(k)                                  the
Delaware Trustee shall have no obligation to administer, service or collect the
Financed Student Loans or to maintain, monitor or otherwise supervise the
administration, servicing or collection of the Financed Student Loans;

 

(l)                                     notwithstanding
anything contained herein to the contrary, any funds and assets held by the
Delaware Trustee on behalf of the Trust hereunder may be maintained and
accounted for in the record-keeping and asset custody systems utilized by the
Trust Company on behalf of the Delaware Trustee; and

 

(m)                               Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary herein or in any Transaction Document or other
document, the Delaware Trustee shall not be required to execute, deliver or
certify on behalf of the Delaware Trustee, the Trust or any other Person any
filings, certificates, affidavits or other instruments required by the SEC or
required under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. 
Notwithstanding any Person’s right to instruct the Delaware Trustee,
neither the Delaware Trustee nor any agent, employee, director or officer of
the Delaware Trustee shall have any obligation to execute any certificates or
other documents required by the SEC or required pursuant to the Sarbanes-Oxley
Act of 2002 or the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, and the
refusal to comply with any such instructions shall not constitute a default or
breech under any Transaction Document.

 

Section 6.02.   Furnishing of Documents.  The Delaware Trustee will furnish to the
Certificateholders, promptly upon receipt, duplicates or copies of all reports,
notices, requests, demands, certificates, financial statements and any other
writings furnished to the Delaware Trustee. 
The Delaware Trustee shall have no duty or obligation to examine or
review such items received by it.

 

Section 6.03.  No Representations or Warranties as to
Trust Estate.  Neither the Trust Company nor the Delaware
Trustee makes (i) any representation or warranty as to the title, value or
merchantability of the Trust Estate or any other representation or warranty,
express or implied, with respect to the Trust Estate whatsoever, and (ii) any
representation or warranty as to the

 

24

 

validity or enforceability of the Transaction Documents or any other
agreement contemplated by any of the foregoing, or as to the correctness of any
statement contained in any thereof, except that the Trust Company represents
and warrants to the Certificateholders and the Administrator that this Trust
Agreement and, assuming that this Trust Agreement has been duly authorized,
executed and delivered by the Sponsor and the Administrator, each of the
Transaction Documents and each other document which contemplates execution
thereof by the Delaware Trustee on behalf of the Trust has been or will be
executed and delivered by its officers who are or will be duly authorized to execute
and deliver such document on its behalf, and that under Delaware law (excluding
Delaware securities laws), this Trust Agreement constitutes the legal, valid
and binding obligation of the Trust Company, enforceable against the Trust
Company in accordance with its terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy,
insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and other similar laws affecting the
enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and to general principles of equity.

 

Section 6.04.   No Segregation of Moneys; No Interest.  Except as otherwise provided herein or in
written instructions from the Required Certificateholders, moneys received by
the Delaware Trustee hereunder need not be segregated in any manner, except to
the extent required by applicable law and Section 2.09 hereof, and may be
deposited under such general conditions as may be prescribed by law, and
neither the Trust Company nor the Delaware Trustee shall be liable for any
interest thereon.

 

Section 6.05.  Reliance; Advice of Counsel.  The Delaware Trustee shall not incur any
liability to anyone in acting in reliance upon any signature, instrument,
notice, resolution, request, consent, order, certificate, report, opinion,
bond, direction or other document or paper believed by it to be genuine and
believed by it to be signed by the proper party or parties.  The Delaware Trustee may accept a copy of a
resolution of the board of directors or other governing body of any party,
certified by the secretary or a senior officer thereof, as conclusive evidence
that such resolution has been duly adopted by such body and that the same is in
full force and effect.  As to any fact
or matter the manner of ascertainment of which is not specifically prescribed
herein, the Delaware Trustee may for all purposes hereof rely on a certificate
of the relevant person as to such fact or matter, and such certificate shall
constitute full protection to the Delaware Trustee for any action taken,
suffered or omitted by it in good faith in reliance thereon.  In the administration of the trusts created
hereby, the Delaware Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers hereof and
perform any of its powers and duties, including, if applicable, the holding of
title to all or any part of the Trust Estate, hereunder directly or through agents
or attorneys and may consult with counsel, accountants and other skilled
persons, at the expense of the Trust, to be selected and employed by it, and
the Delaware Trustee shall not be liable for anything done, suffered or omitted
in good faith by it in accordance with the advice or opinion within the scope
of such person’s competence of any such counsel, accountants or other skilled
persons selected by it with due care.

 

Section 6.06.  Not Acting in Individual Capacity.  Except as otherwise provided in this
Article, in accepting the trusts hereby created, the Trust Company acts solely
as Delaware Trustee hereunder and not in its individual capacity, and all
persons having any claim against the Delaware Trustee by reason of the
transactions contemplated hereby and by the Indenture shall look only to the
Trust Estate (or a part thereof, as the case may be) for payment or
satisfaction thereof, but subject to the lien created by Indenture.

 

25

 

Section 6.07.  Books and Records.  The Delaware Trustee shall be responsible
for the keeping of all customary and appropriate books and records relating to
the receipt and disbursement of all money which it may receive hereunder or
under any agreement contemplated hereby.

 

Section 6.08.  Tax Returns.  The Delaware Trustee is hereby advised that the
Certificateholders intend that as long as the Trust has a single
Certificateholder, the entity created under this Trust Agreement shall be
treated for purposes of federal income tax, state and local income and
franchise taxes, and any other taxes imposed on, measured by or based upon
gross or net income, as a disregarded entity separate from its owner.  However, if there is more than one Certificateholder,
the parties hereto intend that the entity created under this Trust Agreement
shall be treated as a partnership for federal income tax purposes.  The Trust shall, at the expense of the
Certificateholders pro rata based on their respective Percentage Interests,
shall cause a firm of independent public accountants selected by the
Administrator to prepare any tax returns or other forms certified by such
accounting firm to be all, to the best of such accounting firm’s knowledge, of
the tax returns or forms required to be filed by the Trust; the Delaware
Trustee shall cooperate with such accounting firm in providing any information
in its possession which is necessary or advisable in the preparation of such
tax returns and shall execute such tax returns presented to it in execution form
in a timely manner to enable the Certificateholders to timely file such tax
returns.  The Delaware Trustee in its
capacity as Delaware Trustee shall sign all appropriate federal returns
presented to it in execution form; provided, however, that the Trust shall send
a copy of any such return and related information to a Certificateholder at
such times as the Certificateholder may request.  In no event shall the Delaware Trustee be liable for any
liabilities, costs or expenses of the Trust, the Administrator, or the
Certificateholders arising out of the application of any tax law, including
federal, state, foreign or local income or excise taxes or any other tax
imposed on or measured by income (or any interest, penalty or addition with
respect thereto or arising from a failure to comply therewith) except for any
such liability, cost or expense attributable to any act or omission by the
Delaware Trustee, as the case may be, in breach of its obligations under this
Trust Agreement.  The Delaware Trustee
shall keep copies of all returns delivered to it or filed by it.  Any reports, returns, records, filings or
books, other than those customary books and records or any report or return
specifically referenced in this Section 6.08, shall be the sole responsibility
and obligation of the Administrator and the Certificateholders, and the
Delaware Trustee shall have no obligation or responsibility with respect
thereto.

 

ARTICLE VII

ASSUMPTION OF LIABILITY AND PAYMENT

FOR DELAWARE TRUSTEE

 

Section 7.01.  Compensation
and Expenses.  The Delaware Trustee
shall receive from the Trust as compensation (which shall not be limited by any
provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of an express
trust) for its services hereunder such fees as may heretofore and from time to
time hereafter be agreed upon in a separate fee agreement between the Sponsor
and the Delaware Trustee.  The Delaware
Trustee shall be entitled to be reimbursed from the Payments for its reasonable
expenses hereunder, including, without limitation, the reasonable compensation,
expenses and disbursements of such agents, representatives, 

 

26

 

accountants, experts and counsel as the Delaware Trustee may employ in
connection with the exercise and performance of its rights and duties under
this Trust Agreement, the Transaction Documents or any other agreement
contemplated by any of the foregoing, whether or not the transactions
contemplated hereby and thereby are consummated and to be paid as additional reasonable
compensation (which shall not be limited by any provision of law in regard to
the compensation of a trustee of an express trust) for any extraordinary
services rendered hereunder. Such compensation and reimbursement shall be paid
first by a transfer of funds from the Revenue Fund to the Operating Fund
pursuant to the Indenture to the extent and in the priority set forth in the
Indenture and then from the Payments as set forth in Section 4.01(b) hereof.

 

Section 7.02.  Indemnification.  The Trust agrees, to the fullest extent permitted by
applicable law, to assume liability for, and hereby indemnifies and holds
harmless the Trust Company, its officers, directors and employees and the
Delaware Trustee from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses,
damages, taxes, claims, actions, suits, costs, expenses and disbursements
(including reasonable legal fees and expenses) of any kind and nature
whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted at any time against
the Trust Company, its officers, directors and employees or the Delaware
Trustee in any way relating to or arising out of the Trust Estate, any of the
properties included therein, the acceptance, termination or administration of
the Trust Estate or the Trust or any action or inaction of the Delaware Trustee
or the Trust hereunder or under the Transaction Documents or any other
agreement contemplated by any of the foregoing or any certificate of a
Certificateholder, except only that the Trust shall not be required so to assume
liability for any of the matters described in the seventh sentence of
Section 6.01 hereof and provided that the Trust and the Delaware Trustee
agree that such assumption of liability for liabilities, obligations, losses,
damages, taxes, claims, actions, such costs expenses or disbursements of any
kind shall be direct and primary and not that of a guarantor.  If any item assumed by the Trust under this
Section 7.02 is also subject to indemnification by another party to any of the
documents specifically referenced herein, the Trust Company or the Delaware
Trustee shall first make demand on such party for indemnification of any such
item but shall not be obligated to exhaust its remedies thereunder.  The indemnities contained in this Section
7.02 shall survive the resignation or removal of the Delaware Trustee and shall
survive the termination of the Trust and this Trust Agreement.  Such indemnification and reimbursement shall
be paid solely from the Payments as set forth in Section 4.01(b) hereof.

 

Section 7.03.   Certificateholders To Assume Liability.  To the extent not paid pursuant
to Section 4.01(b) and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law,
the Certificateholders, pro rata based on their respective Percentage
Interests, shall pay or cause to be paid (or reimburse the Delaware Trustee
for) (a) all reasonable fees and expenses of the Delaware Trustee
hereunder, including, without limitation, the reasonable compensation, expenses
and disbursements of such agents, representatives, accountants, experts and
counsel as the Delaware Trustee may employ in connection with the exercise and
performance of its rights and duties under this Trust Agreement, the
Transaction Documents or any other agreement contemplated by any of the
foregoing, whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby are
consummated and (b) all amounts required to be paid by Section 7.02
and not paid by the Trust. The liabilities and indemnities contained in this
Section 7.03 are for the benefit of the Trust Company, in its individual
capacity and its officers, directors and employees and shall not be construed
as imposing any liabilities on any Certificateholder or any affiliate thereof
for any 

 

27

 

expense or liability of the Trust to third parties.  Neither the Certificateholders nor the
Administrator shall have liabilities for the expenses and liabilities of the
Trust (except as otherwise provided in this Trust Agreement with respect to the
Trust Company, in its individual capacity) and all such expenses and
liabilities shall be payable solely from the Trust Estate.  Indemnification under this Article VII shall
survive the resignation of the Delaware Trustee or the termination of this
Trust Agreement.

 

ARTICLE VIII

TERMINATION OF INDENTURE

 

Section 8.01.   Termination in General.  After the
termination of the Indenture in accordance with its terms, this Trust Agreement
and the Trust shall terminate and be of no further force or effect upon the
final distribution by the Delaware Trustee of all monies or other property or
proceeds of the Trust Estate in accordance with the terms of this Trust
Agreement.  The bankruptcy, liquidation,
dissolution, death or incapacity of any Certificateholder shall not
(a) operate to terminate this Trust Agreement or the Trust,
(b) entitle such Certificateholder’s legal representatives or heirs to
claim an accounting or to take any action or proceeding in any court for
partition or winding up of all or any part of the Trust or the Trust Estate or (c) otherwise
affect the rights, obligations and liabilities of the parties hereto.  Subject to Section 8.02, none of the
Certificateholders shall be entitled to revoke or terminate the Trust.

 

Section
8.02.  Termination at Option of
Certificateholders.  Notwithstanding
Section 8.01 hereof, the Trust shall dissolve and the remaining assets of
the Trust shall be distributed to the Certificateholders pro rata in accordance
with their respective Percentage Interests and the Trust Statute, and this
Trust Agreement shall be of no further force and effect, upon the election of
all of the Certificateholders by written notice to the Delaware Trustee, if
such notice shall be accompanied by the written agreement (in form and
substance satisfactory to the Delaware Trustee) of all of the
Certificateholders assuming all the obligations of the Trust and the Delaware
Trustee and releasing the Delaware Trustee therefrom; provided, however, that
until the termination of the Indenture in accordance with its terms and full and
final payment of all Obligations outstanding thereunder, the Certificateholders
may not so terminate this Trust Agreement or the Trust.

 

Section 8.03.  Termination.  Upon the completion of winding up of the
Trust, including the payment or the making reasonable provision for payment of
all obligations of the Trust in accordance with Section 3808(e) of the
Trust Statute, the Delaware Trustee shall file a certificate of cancellation
with the Delaware Secretary of State in accordance with Section 3810 of
the Trust Statute, at which time the Trust and this Agreement (other than
Article VII) shall terminate.  The
Administrator shall act as the liquidator of the Trust and shall be responsible
for directing the Delaware Trustee to take all required actions in connection
with winding up the Trust.

ARTICLE IX

SUCCESSOR DELAWARE TRUSTEES,
CO-DELAWARE TRUSTEES

AND SEPARATE DELAWARE TRUSTEES

 

Section 9.01.   Resignation and Successors.  The Delaware Trustee or
any successor may resign at any time without cause by giving at least 60 days’
prior written notice to the Certificateholders.  The Required Certificateholders, may at any time remove the
Delaware Trustee without cause by written notice to the Delaware Trustee, any
such resignation or removal to be effective upon the acceptance of appointment
by a successor Delaware Trustee as hereinafter provided.  In the event of the resignation or removal
of the Delaware Trustee, the Required Certificateholders shall appoint a successor
by written instrument.  If a successor
Delaware Trustee shall not have been appointed within 60 days after the giving
of such notice, the Delaware Trustee or the Required Certificateholders may
apply to any court of competent jurisdiction in the United States to appoint a
successor Delaware Trustee to act until such time, if any, as a successor shall
have been appointed as provided above. 
Any successor so appointed by such court shall immediately and without
further act be superseded by any successor by the Required
Certificateholders.  Any successor,
however appointed, shall execute and deliver to its predecessor Delaware
Trustee an instrument accepting such appointment, and thereupon such successor,
without further act, shall become vested with all the estates, properties,
rights, powers, duties and trusts of the predecessor Delaware Trustee in the
trusts hereunder with like effect as if originally named “Delaware Trustee”
herein; but upon the written request of such successor, and upon payment to the
predecessor Delaware Trustee of all amounts due to it under this Trust
Agreement, such predecessor shall execute and deliver an instrument
transferring to such successor, upon the trusts herein expressed, all the
estates, properties, rights, powers, duties and trusts of such predecessor, and
such predecessor shall duly assign, transfer, deliver and pay over to such
successor all moneys or other property then held by such predecessor upon the
trusts herein expressed.  Any right of
the Certificateholders against the predecessor Delaware Trustee, in its
individual capacity, shall not be prejudiced by the appointment of any
successor Delaware Trustee and shall survive the termination of the trusts
created hereby.  Any successor, however
appointed, shall be a bank or a trust company incorporated or organized and
doing business within the United States of America that is an Independent
Trustee and either (a) having a combined capital and surplus of at least
$50,000,000 and being subject to supervision or examination by federal banking
authorities and (b) having (or having its obligations hereunder guaranteed
by a trust company that has) a long-term unsecured debt rating of at least BBB-
by Standard & Poor’s, Baa3 by Moody’s or at least the equivalent rating from
another nationally recognized statistical rating organization, if there is such
an institution willing, able and legally qualified to perform the duties of the
Delaware Trustee hereunder upon reasonable or customary terms.  Any corporation into which the Delaware
Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any
corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the
Delaware Trustee shall be a party, or any corporation to which substantially
all the corporate trust business of the Delaware Trustee may be transferred,
shall, subject to the preceding sentence, be the “Delaware Trustee” under this
Trust Agreement without further act. 
Any successor Delaware Trustee, however appointed, shall be competent and
qualified to (i) serve as a trustee of a Delaware statutory trust,
(ii) take all action required by the Delaware Trustee pursuant to the
Transaction Documents, this Trust Agreement and any other agreement
contemplated by any of the foregoing, and (iii) until termination of the
Indenture in 

 

29

 

accordance with its terms, be an Independent Trustee.  There shall be at all times at least one
“Delaware Trustee” that meets the requirements of the laws of the State of
Delaware. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the resignation or
removal of the Delaware Trustee shall not be effective unless and until the
Required Certificateholders appoint a successor Delaware Trustee meeting the
requirements specified above.

 

Section 9.02.   Co-Trustees and Separate Trustees.  Whenever the Delaware Trustee or the Required Certificateholders
shall deem it necessary or prudent in order either to conform to any law of any
jurisdiction in which all or any part of the Trust Estate shall be situated or
to make any claim or bring any suit with respect to the Trust Estate or the
Indenture, or the Delaware Trustee or the Required Certificateholders shall be
advised by counsel satisfactory to it or them that it is so necessary or
prudent, the Delaware Trustee and the Certificateholders shall execute and
deliver an agreement supplemental hereto and all other instruments and
agreements, and shall take all other action, necessary or proper to constitute
one or more persons (and the Delaware Trustee may appoint one or more of its
officers) either as co-trustee or co-trustees jointly with the Delaware Trustee
of all or any part of the Trust Estate, or as separate trustee or separate
trustees of all or any part of the Trust Estate, and to vest in such persons,
in such capacity, such title to the Trust Estate or any part thereof and such
rights or duties as may be necessary or desirable, all for such period and
under such terms and conditions as are satisfactory to the Delaware Trustee and
the Required Certificateholders and, until the termination of the Indenture in
accordance with its terms as are reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee.  In case any co-trustee or separate trustee

Section 10.01.  Amendment.

 

(a)  Subject to Section
2.09(b)(ix) hereof, this Trust Agreement may be amended by a written instrument
signed by the Delaware Trustee and the Required Certificateholders to
(i) cure any ambiguity or correct any provision of the Trust Agreement or
(ii) with the consent of each Certificateholder the interests of which in
its Certificates or the Trust would be adversely affected in any material

30

 

however, that such action (A) as evidenced by an
Opinion of Counsel, shall not adversely affect in any material respect the
interests of the Delaware Trustee, or the Noteholders taken as a whole, and
(B) the Delaware Trustee shall have received from each rating agency then
rating any of the Notes, a prior written confirmation that the proposed
amendment will not result in the withdrawal, downgrade or qualifications of the
then current ratings of the obligations; provided further, if in the opinion of
the Delaware Trustee any amendment adversely affects any right, duty or
liability of, or immunity or indemnity in favor of, it or the Trust Company
under this Trust Agreement, the Transaction Documents or any of the documents
contemplated hereby or thereby to which it or the Trust is a party, or would
cause or result in any conflict with or breach of or default under any terms,
conditions or provisions of its charter documents or bylaws or any document
contemplated hereby or thereby to which it is a party, the Delaware Trustee may
in its sole discretion decline to enter into such amendment.

 

(b)  Promptly after the

Agency then rating any of the Notes and the Certificateholders.

 

(c)  It shall not be
necessary for the consent of the Certificateholders pursuant to this Section

consents (and any other consents of the Certificateholders provided for in this
Trust Agreement) and of evidencing the authorization of the execution thereof
by the Certificateholders shall be subject to such reasonable requirements as
the Delaware Trustee may prescribe.

amendment, waiver, modification or supplement to the provisions of this Trust
Agreement.

CERTIFICATE

Issued by GMAC Education Loan Funding Trust-I

 

This Certificate
(the “Certificate”) is not guaranteed or insured by any governmental agency or
instrumentality and does not represent deposits or obligations of or any
interest in the Administrator or Wilmington Trust Company.

 

This Certificate certifies that
                            
is the Noteholder (the “Certificateholder”) of the Percentage Interest evidenced
by this Certificate specified above in the GMAC Education Loan Funding Trust-I
(the “Trust”).  The Trust was created
pursuant to an initial Trust Agreement dated as of January 15, 2003, by and
between GMAC ELF LLC, as the Sponsor (the “Sponsor”), and Wilmington Trust
Company, a Delaware banking corporation, not in its individual capacity but
solely as Delaware Trustee on behalf of the Trust (the “Delaware Trustee”), as amended and restated by that Amended
and Restated Trust Agreement dated as of March 1, 2003 (the “Trust
Agreement”) by and between the Sponsor , and the Delaware Trustee.  To the extent not defined herein, the
capitalized terms used herein have the meanings assigned in the Trust
Agreement.  This Certificate is issued
under and is subject to the terms, provisions and conditions of the Trust
Agreement, to which Trust Agreement the Certificateholder by virtue of the
acceptance hereof assents and by which such Certificateholder is bound.

 

This Certificate
has not and will not be registered under the Securities Act and will not be
listed on any exchange.  In addition to
other restrictions on transfer set forth in the Trust Agreement, no transfer of
this Certificate shall be made to a Person or entity unless such transfer is
made pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act
and any applicable state securities laws or is exempt from the registration
requirements under the Securities Act and such laws.

 

 

In the event that
a transfer is to be made in reliance upon an exemption from the Securities Act
and state securities laws, in order to assure compliance with the Securities
Act and such laws, the Certificateholder desiring to effect such transfer and
such Certificateholder’s prospective transferee shall each certify to the
Trust, Delaware Trustee, the Administrator 
and the transferring Certificateholder in writing the facts surrounding
the transfer in substantially the forms required by the Trust Agreement.  Except in the case of a transfer as to which
the proposed transferee has provided a Rule 144A Letter with respect to a Rule
144A transaction, there shall also be delivered to the Trust an Opinion of
Counsel to the effect that such transfer may be made pursuant to an exemption
from the Securities Act, which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of
the Trust, the Delaware Trustee (unless it is the transferee from whom such
opinion is to be obtained) or of the Administrator.  The Certificateholder desiring to effect such a transfer shall,
and does hereby agree to, indemnify the Trust, the Delaware Trustee and the
Administrator against any liability that may result if the transfer is not so
exempt or is not made in accordance with federal and state securities laws.

 

No transfer, sale, pledge
or other disposition of this Certificate shall be made unless prior to such
transfer, sale, pledge or other disposition, the Trust shall have received
either (i) a representation letter from the transferee of such Certificate,
acceptable to and in form and substance satisfactory to the Delaware Trustee,
to the effect that such a transferee is not an employee benefit plan subject to
Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code, or a person acting on behalf
of any such plan, or (ii) in the case of any Certificate presented for
registration in the name of an employee benefit plan subject to ERISA or
Section 4975 of the Code (or comparable provisions of any subsequent enactments),
or a trustee of any such plan or any other person acting on behalf of any such
plan, an Opinion of Counsel satisfactory to the Trust, the Delaware Trustee and
the Administrator to the effect that the purchase or holding of such
Certificate will not result in the Trust or the Trust Estate being deemed to be
“plan assets” and subject to the prohibited transaction provisions of ERISA and
the Code and will not subject the Trust, Delaware Trustee, the Administrator or
the transferring Certificateholder to any obligation in addition to those
undertaken in the Trust Agreement. 
Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary herein, in the event any
purported transfer of a Certificate is made without delivery of the representation
letter referred to above, such representation shall be deemed to have been made
by the transferee by its acceptance of such Certificate.  In addition, any purported transfer of a
Certificate to or on behalf of an employee benefit plan subject to ERISA or to
the Code without the delivery to the Trust, the Delaware Trustee and the
Administrator of an Opinion of Counsel as described above shall be void and of
no effect.

 

This Certificate
is one of a duly authorized issue of Certificates representing a beneficial
undivided ownership interest in the Trust created by the Trust Agreement.  This Certificate shall not be entitled to
any benefit under the Trust Agreement or be valid for any purpose unless
manually countersigned by an Authorized Officer of the Delaware Trustee.

 

The Certificateholder,
by its acceptance of this Certificate, agrees that it will look solely to the
Trust Estate for payment hereunder and that neither the Delaware Trustee nor
the Administrator is liable to the Certificateholders for any amount
distributable under this Certificate or the Trust Agreement, except as
expressly provided in the Trust Agreement.

 

C-2

 

This Certificate
does not purport to summarize the Trust Agreement and reference is made to the
Trust Agreement for the interests, rights and limitations of rights, benefits,
obligations and duties evidenced thereby, and the rights, duties and immunities
of the Delaware Trustee and the Administrator.

 

Pursuant to the terms of the Trust Agreement, a
distribution on all Certificates issued by the Trust will be made as provided
in the Trust Agreement to the Person in whose name such Certificates are then
registered.  Such distribution will be
made pro rata to the holders based on their respective Percentage Interests.

 

Distributions on this Certificate shall be made by
wire transfer to the Certificateholder entitled thereto as its name appears on
the Register.  The final distribution on
the Certificate will be made in like manner, but only upon presentment and
surrender of such Certificate at the office or agency of the Trust specified in
the notice to Certificateholders of such final distribution.

 

As provided in the Trust Agreement and subject to
certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Certificate is
registrable in the Register upon surrender of this Certificate for registration
of transfer at the office maintained by the Trust accompanied by a written
instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Trust duly executed by the
Certificateholder hereof or such Certificateholder’s attorney duly authorized
in writing, and thereupon one or more new Certificates in authorized
denominations and evidencing the same aggregate ownership in the Certificates
are issuable only as registered Certificates without coupons in denominations
specified in the Trust Agreement.  As
provided in the Trust Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set
forth, Certificates are exchangeable for new Certificates in authorized
denominations and evidencing the same aggregate Percentage Interest, as
requested by the Certificateholder surrendering the same.

 

The Trust shall keep or cause to be kept, at the
office or agency maintained pursuant to the Trust Agreement, a Register in
which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the
Registrar shall provide for the registration of Certificates and of transfers
and exchanges of Certificates as herein provided.

 

Prior to due presentation of a Certificate for
registration of transfer, the Trust, Delaware Trustee, the Administrator and
the Registrar may treat the Person in whose name any Certificate is registered
in the Register as the owner of such Certificate for the purpose of receiving
distributions pursuant to the Trust Agreement and for all other purposes
whatsoever, and none of the Trust, Delaware Trustee, the Administrator and the
Registrar shall be bound by any notice to the contrary.

 

THE
TRUST AGREEMENT CONSTITUTES THE CONTRACT GOVERNING THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS
OF THE CERTIFICATEHOLDERS.  THIS CERTIFICATE
IS ONLY EVIDENCE OF SUCH CONTRACT AND, AS SUCH, IS SUBJECT IN ALL RESPECT SO
THE TERMS OF THE TRUST AGREEMENT, WHICH SUPERCEDES ANY INCONSISTENT STATEMENTS
IN THIS CERTIFICATE.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF,
the Trust has caused this Certificate to be duly executed.
