                                   ARTICLE III

                   TRUST CERTIFICATES AND TRANSFER OF INTEREST

            Section 3.01 Issuance of Trust Certificate. (a) As of the date of
the Original Trust Agreement, the Owner Trustee has issued and delivered to the
Depositor a Trust Certificate in the name of the Depositor evidencing 100% of
the beneficial interest in the Trust.

            (b) Each Trust Certificate shall be executed by manual signature on
behalf of the Owner Trustee by one of its Authorized Officers. Trust
Certificates bearing the manual signature of an individual who was, at the time
when such signature was affixed, authorized to sign on behalf of the Owner
Trustee shall bind the Trust, notwithstanding that such individual has ceased to
be so authorized prior to the delivery of such Trust Certificate or does not
hold such office at the date of such Trust Certificate. Each Trust Certificate
shall be dated the date of its issuance.

            Section 3.02 Registration and Transfer of Certificates. (a) The
Owner Trustee shall maintain at its office referred to in Section 2.02 hereof,
or at the office of any agent appointed by it and approved in writing by the
Owners at the time of such appointment, a register for the registration and
transfer of Trust Certificates. No transfer of a beneficial interest in the
Trust shall be made unless such transfer is made pursuant to an effective
registration statement under the 1933 Act and state securities laws, or is
exempt from the registration requirements under the 1933 Act and state
securities laws.

            (b) The registered Owner of any Trust Certificate may transfer all
or any portion of the beneficial interest in the Trust evidenced by such Trust
Certificate upon surrender thereof to the Owner Trustee accompanied by the
documents required by Section 3.04 and Section 3.06 hereof. Such transfer may be
made by the registered Owner in person or by his attorney duly authorized in
writing upon surrender of the Trust Certificate to the Owner Trustee accompanied
by a written instrument of transfer and with such signature guarantees and
evidence of authority of the Persons signing the instrument of transfer as the
Owner Trustee may reasonably require. Promptly upon the receipt of such
documents and receipt by the Owner Trustee of the transferor's Trust
Certificate, the Owner Trustee shall record the name of such transferee as an
Owner and its Ownership Percentage in the Trust Certificate register and issue,
execute and deliver to such Owner a Trust Certificate evidencing such Ownership
Percentage. In the event a transferor transfers only a portion of its beneficial
interest in the Trust, the Owner Trustee shall register and issue, to such
transferor a new Trust Certificate evidencing such transferor's new Ownership
Percentage. Subsequent to a transfer and upon the issuance of the new Trust
Certificate or Trust Certificates, the Owner Trustee shall cancel and destroy
the Trust Certificate surrendered to it in connection with such transfer. The
Owner Trustee may treat the Person in whose name any Trust Certificate is
registered as the sole Owner of the beneficial interest in the Trust evidenced
by such Trust Certificate.

            (c) As a condition precedent to any registration of transfer, the
Owner Trustee may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover the payment
of any tax or taxes or other governmental charges required to be paid in
connection with such transfer.

            Section 3.03 Lost, Stolen, Mutilated or Destroyed Certificates. If
(i) any mutilated Trust Certificate is surrendered to the Owner Trustee, or (ii)
the Owner Trustee receives evidence to its satisfaction that any Trust
Certificate has been destroyed, lost or stolen, and upon proof of ownership
satisfactory to the Owner Trustee together with such security or indemnity as
may be requested by the Owner Trustee to save it harmless, the Owner Trustee
shall execute and deliver a new Trust Certificate for the same Ownership
Percentage as the Trust Certificate so mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen, of
like tenor and bearing a different issue number, with such notations, if any, as
the Owner Trustee shall determine.

            Section 3.04 Limitation on Transfer of Ownership Rights. No transfer
of a beneficial interest in the Trust represented by a Trust Certificate shall
be made to any Person unless (i) such Person delivers to the Owner Trustee an
accession agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit B hereof, (ii) such
Person has a net worth as shown by its most recent audited financial statements
of not less than the product of $10,000,000 and such Person's Ownership
Percentage after the proposed transfer and (iii) the Owner Trustee shall have
received a written Opinion of Counsel in form and substance satisfactory to the
Owner Trustee stating that such transfer is exempt from the 1933 Act and any
applicable state securities law.

            Section 3.05 Assignment of Right to Distributions. An Owner may
assign all or any part of its right to receive distributions hereunder, but such
assignment (in the absence of a permitted transfer) shall effect no change in
the ownership of the Trust.

            Section 3.06 Transfer. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
herein, no transfer of a beneficial interest in the Trust represented by a Trust
Certificate or any rights or benefits with respect thereto (including the right
to receive distributions) shall be permitted unless the Owner Trustee shall have
received an Opinion of Counsel, at the expense of the transferring Owner, to the
effect that such transfer will not cause the Trust to be treated for U.S.
federal income tax purposes as an association (or publicly-traded partnership)
taxable as a corporation, and will not adversely affect the federal income tax
treatment of the Noteholders in any material respect.

            The Trust Certificates and any beneficial interest in such Trust
Certificates may not be acquired by or with the assets of (a) employee benefit
plans, retirement arrangements, individual retirement accounts or Keogh plans
subject to Section 406 of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974,
as amended ("ERISA"), or Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
amended (the "Code"), or any federal, state, local or foreign law materially
similar to the foregoing provisions of ERISA or the Code, or (b) entities
(including insurance company general accounts) whose underlying assets include
plan assets by reason of the investment by any such plans, arrangements or
accounts in such entities (a "Benefit Plan Investor"). Each transferee of a
Trust Certificate shall be required to represent (a) that it is not a Benefit
Plan Investor and is not acquiring such Trust Certificate with the assets of a
Benefit Plan Investor and (b) that if such Trust Certificate is subsequently
deemed to be a plan asset it will dispose of such Trust Certificate. Each Trust
Certificate shall bear a legend referring to the restrictions contained in this
paragraph.

            Section 3.07 Federal Income Tax Allocations. In the event a Trust
Certificate is transferred in compliance with Section 3.06, net income of the
Trust for any Interest Period as determined for U.S. federal income tax purposes
(and each item of income, gain, loss and deduction entering into the computation
thereof) shall be allocated to the Owners, pro rata based upon their Ownership
Percentage.

                                   ARTICLE IV

                              CONCERNING THE OWNERS

            Section 4.01 Action by Owners with Respect to Certain Matters. (a)

written instruction of the Owners.

            (b) The Owner Trustee shall take such action or actions as may be
specified in any instructions delivered in accordance with Section 4.01(a)

any such action if it shall have reasonably determined, or shall have been
advised by counsel, that such action (i) is contrary to the terms hereof or of
any document contemplated hereby to which the Owner Trustee is a party or is
otherwise contrary to law or (ii) is likely to result in liability on the part
of the Owner Trustee, unless the Owners shall have provided to the Owner Trustee
indemnification or security reasonably satisfactory to the Owner Trustee against
all costs, expenses and liabilities arising from the Owner Trustee's taking such
action.

            (c) With respect to the following matters, the Owner Trustee shall

      Agreement, except to cure any ambiguity or to amend or supplement any
      provision in a manner or add any provision that would not materially
      adversely affect the interests of the Noteholders;

            (vi) the appointment pursuant to the Indenture of a successor to the
      Indenture Trustee or the Indenture Administrator, or the consent to the
      assignment by the Indenture Trustee or the Indenture Administrator of
      their obligations under the Indenture;

            (vii) the consent to the calling or waiver of any default under any
      Basic Documents;

corporation. Neither the Depositor, the Trust, nor the Owner Trustee shall cause
the Trust to be treated as an association taxable as a corporation for U.S.
federal income tax purposes. All provisions of this Agreement shall be construed

applicable tax returns consistently with the aforementioned treatment.

            (b) The Trust is not, and will not be upon conveyance of the Trust
Estate to the Owner Trustee, an "Investment Company" or under the "control" of
an "Investment Company," as such terms are defined in the Investment Company Act

            (c) This Agreement has been duly and validly authorized, executed
and delivered by, and constitutes a valid and binding agreement of, the
Depositor, enforceable in accordance with its terms.

            Section 4.04 No Contrary Actions. No Owner shall direct the Owner
Trustee to take or refrain from taking any action if such action or inaction
would be contrary to any obligation of the Trust or the Owner Trustee under this
Agreement or any of the Basic Documents or would be contrary to Section 2.03 or
4.01 nor shall the Owner Trustee be obligated to follow any such direction, if
given.

                                   ARTICLE V

proportion to their respective Ownership Percentages, determined as of the close
of business on the Business Day immediately preceding such distribution date.
All payments to be made under this Agreement by the Owner Trustee shall be made
only from the income and proceeds of the Trust Estate and only to the extent
that the Owner Trustee has received such income or proceeds.

            (c) With each distribution to an Owner pursuant to Section 5.02(b)
above, the Owner Trustee shall deliver a distribution date statement setting
forth, for the period since the preceding distribution date:

            (i) income and proceeds received by the Owner Trustee with respect
      to the Trust Estate;

            (ii) amounts paid to the Owner Trustee;

            (iii) amounts paid by the Owner Trustee to any Person pursuant to
      the Basic Documents; and

            (iv) amounts paid for other expenses of the Trust.

            (d) In the event that any tax is imposed on the Trust, such tax
shall be charged against amounts otherwise distributable to the Owners on a pro
rata basis. The Owner Trustee is hereby authorized to retain from amounts
otherwise distributable to the Owners sufficient funds to pay or provide for the
payment of, and to actually pay, such tax as is legally owed by the Trust (but
such authorization shall not prevent the Owner Trustee from contesting any such
tax in appropriate proceedings, and withholding payment of such tax, if
permitted by law, pending the outcome of such proceedings).

            Section 5.03 Method of Payment. All amounts payable to the Owners
pursuant to this Agreement shall be paid by the Owner Trustee to such Owner or a
nominee therefor by check payable to such Owner, mailed first class to the
address of such Owner appearing on the register maintained pursuant to Section
3.02 hereof, or by crediting the amount to be distributed to such Owner to an
account maintained with the Owner Trustee or by transferring such amount by wire
transfer in immediately available funds to a banking institution with bank wire
transfer facilities for the account of such Owner, as instructed in writing from
time to time by such Owner. The Owner Trustee may require an Owner to pay any
wire transfer fees incurred in connection with any wire transfer made to such
Owner.

            Section 5.04 No Segregation of Moneys; No Interest. Subject to
Section 5.01, moneys received by the Owner Trustee hereunder need not be
segregated in any manner except to the extend required by law and may be
deposited under such general conditions as may be prescribed by law, and the
Owner Trustee shall not be liable for any interest thereon.

                                   ARTICLE VI

                       AUTHORITY AND DUTIES OF THE TRUSTEE

            Section 6.01 General Authority. The Owner Trustee is authorized to
take all actions required or permitted to be taken by it pursuant to the terms
of the Eligible Lender Trust Agreement (Issuer) and the Basic Documents.

            Section 6.02 Specific Authority. The Owner Trustee is hereby
authorized and directed to execute and deliver the Eligible Lender Trust
Agreement (Issuer) and the Basic Documents and each certificate or other
document attached as an exhibit to or contemplated by the Eligible Lender Trust
Agreement (Issuer) and the Basic Documents.

            Section 6.03 General Duties. It shall be the duty of the Owner
Trustee to discharge (or cause to be discharged) all of its responsibilities
pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and to administer the Trust in the
interest of the Owners. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Owner Trustee shall
be deemed to have discharged its duties and responsibilities hereunder and under
the Eligible Lender Trust Agreement (Issuer) and the Basic Documents to the
extent the Administrator or the Servicer has agreed in the Administration
Agreement or the Servicing Agreement, respectively, to perform any act of or to
discharge and duty of the Owner Trustee hereunder or under the Eligible Lender
Trust Agreement (Issuer) or any Basic Document, and the Owner Trustee shall not
be held liable for the default or failure of the Administrator or the Servicer
to carry out its obligations under the Administration Agreement and the
Servicing Agreement, respectively.

            Section 6.04 Accounting and Reports to the Owners, the Internal
Revenue Service and Others. The Administrator shall (i) maintain or cause to be
maintained the books of the Trust on a calendar year basis on the accrual method
of accounting, (ii) deliver to each Owner, within 60 days of the end of each
Fiscal Year, or more often, as may be required by the Code and the regulations
thereunder, a copy of the annual financial statement of the Trust for such
Fiscal Year and a statement in such form and containing such information as may
be required by such regulations, and as is necessary and appropriate to enable
each Owner to prepare its federal and state income tax returns, (iii) prepare
(or cause to be prepared), and shall be solely responsible for the preparation
of, all federal, state and local tax and information returns and reports
required to be filed by or in respect of the Trust, (iv) sign such returns, or
any other information, statements or schedules in the manner required by law,
(v) file, on a timely basis, such returns and such of the above information, or
any other information, statements or schedules, as may be required under
applicable tax laws, and (vi) cause to be mailed to each Owner copies of all
such reports and tax returns of the Trust.

            Section 6.05 Signature of Returns. The Administrator shall sign on
behalf of the Trust the tax returns and other Periodic Filings of the Trust,
unless applicable law requires an Owner to sign such documents, in which case,
so long as the Depositor is an Owner and applicable law allows the Depositor to
sign any such document, the Depositor shall sign such document. At any time that
the Depositor is not an Owner, or is otherwise not allowed by law to sign any
such document, then the Owner required by law to sign such document shall sign.

            Section 6.06 Right to Receive Instructions. In the event that the
Owner Trustee is unable to decide between alternative courses of action, or is
unsure as to the application of any provision of this Agreement, the Eligible
Lender Trust Agreement (Issuer) or any Basic Document, or such provision is
ambiguous as to its application, or is, or appears to be, in conflict with any
other applicable provision, or in the event that this Agreement, the Eligible
Lender Trust Agreement (Issuer) or any Basic Document permits any determination
by the Owner Trustee or is silent or is incomplete as to the course of action
which the Owner Trustee is required to take with respect to a particular set of
facts, the Owner Trustee may give notice (in such form as shall be appropriate
under the circumstances) to the Depositor requesting instructions and, to the
extent that the Owner Trustee shall have acted or refrained from acting in good
faith in accordance with any instructions received from the Owners, the Owner
Trustee shall not be liable on account of such action or inaction to any Person.
If the Owner Trustee shall not have received appropriate instructions within ten
days of such notice (or within such shorter period of time as may be specified
in such notice) the Owner Trustee may, but shall be under no duty to, take or
refrain from taking such action, not inconsistent with this Agreement, the
Eligible Lender Trust Agreement (Issuer) or the Basic Documents, as the Owner
Trustee shall deem to be in the best interests of the Owners, and the Owner
Trustee shall have no liability to any Person for such action or inaction.

            Section 6.07 No Duties Except as Specified in this Agreement or in
Instructions. The Owner Trustee shall not have any duty or obligation to manage,
make any payment in respect of, register, record, sell, dispose of or otherwise
deal with the Trust Estate, prepare or file any tax, qualification to do
business or securities law filings or reports or to otherwise take or refrain
from taking any action under, or in connection with, any document contemplated
hereby to which the Owner Trustee is a party, except as expressly provided by
the terms of this Agreement and no implied duties or obligations shall be read
into this Agreement against the Owner Trustee. The Owner Trustee nevertheless
agrees that it will, at its own cost and expense, promptly take all action as
may be necessary to discharge any liens on any part of the Trust Estate which
result from claims against the Owner Trustee personally that are not related to
the ownership or the administration of the Trust Estate or the transactions
contemplated by the Eligible Lender Trust Agreement (Issuer) or the Basic
Documents.

            Section 6.08 No Action Except Under Specified Documents or
Instructions. The Owner Trustee shall not manage, control, use, sell, dispose of
or otherwise deal with any part of the Trust Estate except (i) in accordance
with the powers granted to and the authority conferred upon the Owner Trustee
pursuant to this Agreement, and (ii) in accordance with instructions delivered
to the Owner Trustee pursuant to Section 6.06 hereof.

            Section 6.09 Sarbanes-Oxley Filings. Notwithstanding any Person's
right to instruct the Owner Trustee, neither the Owner Trustee nor any agent,
employee, director or officer of the Owner Trustee shall have any obligation to
execute any certificates or other documents 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 breach of any Basic Document.

                                  ARTICLE VII

                             CONCERNING THE TRUSTEE

            Section 7.01 Acceptance of Trusts and Duties. The Owner Trustee
accepts the trusts hereby created and agrees to perform its duties hereunder
with respect to the same but only upon the terms of this Agreement. The Owner
Trustee shall not be personally liable under any circumstances, except (i) for
its own willful misconduct or gross negligence, (ii) for liabilities arising
from the failure by the Owner Trustee to perform obligations expressly
undertaken by it in the last sentence of Section 6.07 hereof, or (iii) for
taxes, fees or other charges on, based on or measured by any fees, commissions
or compensation received by the Owner Trustee in connection with any of the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the Basic Documents. In
particular, but not by way of limitation:

            (a) The Owner Trustee shall not be personally liable for any error
of judgment made in good faith by an Authorized Officer of the Owner Trustee;

            (b) The Owner Trustee shall not be personally liable with respect to
any action taken or omitted to be taken by the Owner Trustee in good faith in
accordance with the instructions of the Owner;

            (c) No provision of this Agreement shall require the Owner Trustee
to expend or risk its personal funds or otherwise incur any financial liability
in the performance of any of its rights or powers hereunder, if the Owner
Trustee shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds
or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured
or provided to it;

            (d) Under no circumstance shall the Owner Trustee be personally
liable for any indebtedness of the Trust under the Eligible Lender Trust
Agreement (Issuer) or any Basic Document; and

            (e) The Owner Trustee shall not be personally responsible for or in
respect of the validity or sufficiency of this Agreement or for the due
execution hereof by the Depositor, or for the form, character, genuineness,
sufficiency, value or validity of any Collateral or the Trust Estate, or for or
in respect of the validity or sufficiency of the Eligible Lender Trust Agreement
(Issuer) or the Basic Documents.

            Section 7.02 Furnishing of Documents. The Owner Trustee shall
furnish to the Owners, promptly upon receipt thereof, duplicates or copies of
all material reports, notices, requests, demands, certificates, financial
statements and any other instruments furnished to the Owner Trustee hereunder
(other than documents originated by or otherwise furnished to the Owners).

            Section 7.03 Reliance; Advice of Counsel. (a) The Owner Trustee
shall incur no liability to anyone in acting upon any signature, instrument,
notice, resolution, request, consent, order, certificate, report, opinion, bond
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 Owner Trustee may accept a certified
copy of a resolution of the board of directors or other governing body of any
corporate party 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 Owner Trustee may for all purposes hereof rely on a
certificate, signed by the president or any vice president or by the treasurer
or any assistant treasurer or the secretary or any assistant secretary of the
relevant party, as to such fact or matter, and such certificate shall constitute
full protection to the Owner Trustee for any action taken or omitted to be taken
by it in good faith in reliance thereon.

            (b) In the exercise or administration of the trusts hereunder and in
the performance of its duties and obligations under any of the Basic Documents,
the Owner Trustee (i) may act directly or, at the expense of the Trust, through
agents or attorneys pursuant to agreements entered into with any of them, and
the Owner Trustee shall not be liable for the default or misconduct of such
agents or attorneys if such agents or attorneys shall have been selected by the
Owner Trustee with reasonable care; and (ii) may, at the expense of the Trust,
consult with counsel, accountants and other skilled persons to be selected with
reasonable care and employed by it, and the Owner Trustee shall not be liable
for anything done, suffered or omitted in good faith by it in accordance with
the advice or opinion of any such counsel, accountants or other skilled persons.

            Section 7.04 Not Acting in Individual Capacity. Except as expressly
provided in this Article VII, in accepting the trusts hereby created the Owner
Trustee acts solely as trustee hereunder and not in its individual capacity, and
all Persons having any claim against the Owner Trustee by reason of the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the Basic Documents shall look
only to the Trust Estate for payment or satisfaction thereof.

                                  ARTICLE VIII

                             COMPENSATION OF TRUSTEE

            Section 8.01 Owner Trustee's Fees and Expenses. The Owner Trustee
shall receive compensation from the Owners for its services hereunder as set
forth in a separate fee arrangement with the Owner Trustee and the Depositor, a
copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit C. The Owner Trustee shall be
entitled to be reimbursed by the Owners for its reasonable expenses hereunder,
including, without limitation, the reasonable compensation, expenses and
disbursements of such agents, representatives, experts and counsel as the Owner
Trustee may employ in connection with the exercise and performance of its rights
and duties under this Agreement and the Basic Documents.

            Section 8.02 Indemnification. The Owners shall be jointly and
severally liable for, and hereby agree to indemnify the Wilmington Trust Company
and its successors, assigns, agents and servants (collectively, the "Indemnified
Persons"), from and against, any and all liabilities, obligations, losses,
damages, taxes (other than taxes incurred as the result of the payment of fees
and expenses pursuant to Section 8.01 hereof), claims, actions, suits, costs,
expenses and disbursements (including legal fees and expenses) of any kind and
nature whatsoever (collectively, "Expenses") which may be imposed on, incurred
by or asserted at any time against the Indemnified Persons (whether or not
indemnified against by other parties) in any way relating to or arising out of
this Agreement, the Eligible Lender Trust Agreement (Issuer), any Basic
Document, the administration of the Trust Estate or the action or inaction of
the Owner Trustee hereunder, except only that the Owners shall not be required
to indemnify the Wilmington Trust Company for Expenses arising or resulting from
any of the matters described in the second sentence of Section 7.01. To the
fullest extent permitted by law, Expenses to be incurred by an Indemnified
Person shall, from time to time, be advanced by, or on behalf of, the Owners
prior to the final disposition of any matter upon receipt by the Owners of an
undertaking by, or on behalf of, such Indemnified Person to repay such amount if
it shall be determined that the Indemnified Person is not entitled to be
indemnified under this Agreement. The obligations of the Owners pursuant to this
Section 8.02 shall be borne (as between the Owners inter se) in proportion to
their respective Ownership Percentages. The indemnities contained in this
Section 8.02 shall survive the resignation or removal of the Owner Trustee or
the termination of this Agreement. The indemnities contained in this Section
8.02 extend only to the Wilmington Trust Company in its individual capacity and
shall not be construed as indemnities of the Trust Estate.

            Section 8.03 Payments to the Owner Trustee. Any amounts paid to the
Owner Trustee from the Trust Estate pursuant to this Article VIII shall be
deemed not to be part of the Trust Estate immediately after such payment.

                                   ARTICLE IX

                              TERMINATION OF TRUST

            Section 9.01 Termination of Trust. (a) The Trust shall dissolve and
the Trust Estate shall, subject to compliance with Section 3808 of the Statutory
Trust Act, be distributed to the Owners in accordance with their respective
Ownership Percentages upon the sale or other final disposition by the Owner
Trustee of the Trust Estate and the final distribution by the Owner Trustee of
all moneys or other property or proceeds of the Trust Estate in accordance with
the terms of this Agreement and the Basic Documents. Upon the dissolution of the
Trust, after paying or making reasonable provision for the payment of all
liabilities of the Trust in accordance with applicable law, the Owner Trustee,
at the direction and expense of the Depositor, shall file a certificate of
cancellation with the Delaware Secretary of State and, thereupon, the Trust
shall terminate and this Agreement (other than Article VIII) shall be of no
further force or effect.

            (b) The bankruptcy, death or incapacity of any Owner shall not
operate to terminate this Agreement, nor entitle such Owner's legal
representatives or heirs to claim an accounting or to take any action or
proceeding in any court for a partition or winding up of the Trust Estate, nor
otherwise affect the rights, obligations and liabilities of the parties hereto.

            Section 9.02 No Termination by Depositor or Owners. Except as
provided in Section 9.01 hereof, neither the Depositor nor the Owners shall be
entitled to terminate or revoke the Trust established hereunder.

                                   ARTICLE X

                   SUCCESSOR TRUSTEES AND ADDITIONAL TRUSTEES

            Section 10.01 Resignation of Owner Trustee; Appointment of
Successor. (a) The Owner Trustee may resign at any time without cause by giving
at least 60 days' prior written notice to the Owners, such resignation to be
effective upon the acceptance of appointment by a successor owner trustee under
Section 10.01(b) below. In addition, the Owners may at any time remove the Owner
Trustee without cause by an instrument in writing delivered to the Owner
Trustee, such removal to be effective upon the acceptance of appointment by a
successor owner trustee under Section 10.01(b) below. In case of the resignation
or removal of the Owner Trustee, the Owners may appoint a successor owner
trustee by an instrument signed by the Owners. If a successor owner trustee
shall not have been appointed within 30 days after the giving of written notice
of such resignation or the delivery of the written instrument with respect to
such removal, the Owner Trustee or the Owners may apply to any court of
competent jurisdiction to appoint a successor owner trustee to act until such
time, if any, as a successor owner trustee shall have been appointed as provided
above. Any successor owner trustee so appointed by such court shall immediately
and without further act be superseded by any successor owner trustee appointed
as above provided within one year from the date of the appointment by such
court.

            (b) Any successor owner trustee, however appointed, shall execute
and deliver to the predecessor Owner Trustee an instrument accepting such
appointment, and thereupon such successor owner trustee, without further act,
shall become vested with all the estates, properties, rights, powers, duties and
trust of the predecessor Owner Trustee in the trusts hereunder with like effect
as if originally named the Owner Trustee herein; but nevertheless, upon the
written request of such successor owner trustee and payment of all amounts due
and owing to it, such predecessor Owner Trustee shall execute and deliver an
instrument transferring to such successor owner trustee, upon the trusts herein
expressed, all the estates, properties, rights, powers, duties and trusts of
such predecessor Owner Trustee, and such predecessor Owner Trustee shall duly
assign, transfer, deliver and pay over to such successor owner trustee all
moneys or other property then held or subsequently received by such predecessor
Owner Trustee upon the trusts herein expressed.

            (c) The Owner Trustee shall at all times be a corporation or
association (i) meeting the requirements of Section 3807(a) of the Delaware
Statutory Trust Act; (ii) being subject to supervision or examination by federal
or state authorities; and (iii) having (or having a parent which has) a rating
of at least investment grade by the Rating Agencies. If the Owner Trustee shall
publish reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the
requirements of the aforesaid supervising or examining authority, then for the
purpose of this Section, the combined capital and surplus of the Owner Trustee
shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most
recent report of condition so published. In case at any time the Owner Trustee
shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section,
the Owner Trustee shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect
specified in this Section.

            (d) Any person into which the Owner Trustee may be merged or
converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any person resulting from any
merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Owner Trustee shall be a party,
or any person to which substantially all the corporate trust business of the
Owner Trustee may be transferred, shall, subject to the terms of Section
10.01(c) hereof, be the Owner Trustee under this Agreement without further act.

            Section 10.02 Appointment of Additional Owner Trustees. At any time
or times for the purpose of meeting any legal requirements of any jurisdiction
in which any part of the Trust Estate may at the time be located, the Owner
Trustee, by an instrument in writing, may appoint one or more individuals or
corporations to act as separate trustee or separate trustees of all or any part
of the Trust Estate to the full extent that local law makes it necessary or
appropriate for such separate trustee or separate trustees to act alone.

                                   ARTICLE XI

                                  MISCELLANEOUS

            Section 11.01 Supplements and Amendments. (a) Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, so long as any amount owed under the Notes
remain outstanding, the Trust shall not amend Section 2.03, 3.04, 3.05, 4.01,
4.04, 9.01 or 9.02 or this Article XI without the prior written consent of the
Indenture Trustee (acting at the direction of the Noteholders of at least a
majority of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes).

            (b) Subject to (c) and (d) below, this Agreement may be amended only
by a written instrument signed by the Owner Trustee and all of the Owners at the
time of such amendment and with the satisfaction of the Rating Agency Condition
with respect to such amendment; provided, however, that if, in the opinion of
the Owner Trustee, any instrument required to be so executed adversely affects
any right, duty or liability of, or immunity or indemnity in favor of, the Owner
Trustee under this Agreement or any of the documents contemplated hereby to
which the Owner Trustee is a party, or would cause or result in any conflict
with or breach of any terms, conditions or provisions of, or default under, the
charter documents or by-laws of the Owner Trustee or any document contemplated
hereby to which the Owner Trustee is a party, the Owner Trustee may in its sole
discretion decline to execute such instrument.

            (c) This Agreement may be amended by the Depositor and the Owner
Trustee without the consent of any of the Noteholders or the Owners, to cure any
ambiguity, to correct or supplement any provisions in this Agreement or for the
purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any
of the provisions in this Agreement or modifying in any manner the rights of the
Noteholders or the Owners; provided, however, that such action shall not, as
evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel, adversely affect in any material respect the
interests of any Noteholder or Owners.

            (d) This Agreement may also be amended from time to time by the
Depositor and the Owner Trustee (i) with the consent of the Noteholders of Notes
evidencing not less than a majority of the aggregate outstanding principal
balance of the Notes and (ii) with the consent of the Owners of Trust
Certificates evidencing not less than a majority of the aggregate Ownership
Percentage, for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any
manner or eliminating any of the provisions of this Agreement or of modifying in
any manner the rights of the Noteholders or the Owners; provided, however, that
no such amendment shall (a) increase or reduce in any manner the amount of, or
accelerate or delay the timing of, collections of payments on Trust Student
Loans or distributions that shall be required to be made for the benefit of the
Noteholders or the Owners or (b) reduce the aforesaid percentage of the
aggregate outstanding amount of the Notes and the Ownership Percentage of Trust
Certificates required to consent to any such amendment, without the consent of
all the outstanding Noteholders and Owners.

            (e) Promptly after the execution of any such amendment or consent,
the Owner Trustee shall furnish written notification of the substance of such
amendment or consent to each Owner and the Indenture Trustee.

            (f) It shall not be necessary for the consent of the Owners or the
Noteholders, as the case may be, pursuant to this Section to approve the
particular form of any proposed amendment or consent, but it shall be sufficient
if such consent shall approve the substance thereof. The manner of obtaining
such consents (and any other consents of Owners provided for in this Agreement
or in any other Basic Document) and of evidencing the authorization of the
execution thereof by Owners shall be subject to such reasonable requirements as
the Owner Trustee may prescribe.

            (g) Prior to the execution of any amendment to this Agreement, the
Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee shall be entitled to receive and rely
upon an Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of such amendment is
authorized or permitted by this Agreement. The Owner Trustee may, but shall not
be obligated to, enter into any such amendment which affects the Owner Trustee's
own rights, duties or immunities under this Agreement or otherwise.

            (h) As a condition to entering into any amendment or supplement of
this Agreement pursuant to this Section 11.01, the Owner Trustee shall have
received an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such amendment or supplement
will not cause the Trust to be treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes as
an association (or publicly-traded partnership) taxable as a corporation, and
will not adversely affect the federal income tax treatment of the Noteholders in
any material respect.

            Section 11.02 No Legal Title to Trust Estate in Owner. The Owners
shall not have legal title to any part of the Trust Estate and shall only have
an undivided beneficial interest therein. No transfer, by operation of law or
otherwise, of any right, title and interest of the Owners in and to their
undivided beneficial interest in the Trust Estate hereunder shall operate to
terminate this Agreement or the trusts hereunder or entitle any successor
transferee to an accounting or to the transfer to it of legal title to any part
of the Trust Estate.

            Section 11.03 Pledge of Collateral by Owner Trustee is Binding. The
pledge of any Trust Estate to any Person by the Owner Trustee made under any
Basic Document and pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall bind the Owners
and shall be effective to transfer or convey the rights of the Owner Trustee and
the Owners in and to such Trust Estate to the extent set forth in such Basic
Document. No purchaser or other grantee shall be required to inquire as to the
authorization, necessity, expediency or regularity of such pledge or as to the
application of any proceeds with respect thereto by the Owner Trustee.

            Section 11.04 Limitations on Rights of Others. Nothing in this
Agreement, whether express or implied, shall be construed to give to any Person
other than the Owner Trustee and the Owners any legal or equitable right, remedy
or claim in the Trust Estate or under or in respect of this Agreement or any
covenants, conditions or provisions contained herein.

            Section 11.05 Notices. Unless otherwise expressly specified or
permitted by the terms hereof, all notices shall be in writing and delivered by
hand or mailed by certified mail, postage prepaid, if to the Owner Trustee,
addressed to Wilmington Trust Company, 1100 North Market Street, Wilmington,
Delaware 19890-0001, Attn: Corporate Trust Administration, or to such other
address as the Owner Trustee may have set forth in a written notice to the
Owners; and if to an Owner, addressed to it at the address set forth for such
Owner in the register maintained by the Owner Trustee. Whenever any notice in
writing is required to be given by the Owner Trustee hereunder, such notice
shall be deemed given and such requirement satisfied 72 hours after such notice
is mailed by certified mail, postage prepaid, addressed as provided above; any
notice given by an Owner to the Owner Trustee shall be effective upon receipt by
an Authorized Officer of the Owner Trustee.

            Section 11.06 Severability. Any provision of this Agreement which is
prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction,
be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without
invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or
unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render
unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

            Section 11.07 Separate Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed
by the parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed
and delivered shall be an original, but all such counterparts shall together
constitute but one and the same instrument.

            Section 11.08 Successors and Assigns. All covenants and agreements
contained herein shall be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of, the Owner
Trustee and its successors and assigns and each Owner and its successors and
permitted assigns, all as herein provided. Any request, notice, direction,
consent, waiver or other instrument or action by an Owner shall bind the
successors and assigns of such Owner.

            Section 11.09 Headings. The headings of the various Articles and

Wilmington Trust Company
[Address]

Dear Sirs:

            We refer to the Amended and Restated Trust Agreement, dated as of
December 15, 2005 (the "Trust Agreement"), between SLC Student Loan Receivables
I, Inc. (the "Company"), and Wilmington Trust Company, a Delaware banking
corporation (in its capacity as trustee thereunder, the "Trustee"). We propose
to purchase a beneficial interest in SLC Student Loan Trust 2005-3, a Delaware
statutory trust (the "Trust") formed pursuant to the Trust Agreement.
Capitalized terms used herein without definition have the meanings given them in
the Trust Agreement.

1.    We hereby confirm that at the date hereof our net worth exceeds the
      minimums set forth in Section 3.04 of the Trust Agreement.

2.    [We hereby further agree, as provided and to the extent specified in the
      Trust Agreement, to be jointly and severally liable with any other holders
      of trust certificates with respect to the Trust for all fees, expenses,
      taxes, indemnity payments and other liabilities of the Trust in accordance
      with the terms of the Trust Agreement, including, pursuant to Sections
      8.01 and 8.02 thereof, those incurred by Wilmington Trust Company in its
      capacity as Trustee in the administration of the Trust thereunder, to the
      extent such fees, expenses, taxes, indemnity payments and other
      liabilities of the Trust or the Trustee, as the case may be, with respect
      to the Trust, are not paid out of the Trust Estate; provided, however,
      that we will be liable only for obligations of the Trust arising on and
      after the date hereof.]

3.    We understand that our Trust Certificate is not being registered under the
      Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "1933 Act"), or any state
      securities or "Blue Sky" law and is being sold to us in a transaction that
      is exempt from the registration requirements of the 1933 Act and any
      applicable state laws.

4.    We have knowledge and experience in financial and business matters as to
      be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of an investment in the
      Trust, we are able to bear the economic risk of investment in the Trust
      and we are an accredited investor as defined in Regulation D under the
      1933 Act.

5.    We are acquiring our Trust Certificate for our own account and not for the
      benefit of any other person and not with a view to any distribution of our
      beneficial interest in the Trust subject, nevertheless, to the
      understanding that disposition of our property shall at all times be and
      remain within our control.

6.    We agree that our beneficial interest in the Trust must be held
      indefinitely by us unless subsequently registered under the 1933 Act and
      any applicable state securities or "Blue Sky" law or unless exemptions
      from the registration requirements of the 1933 Act and applicable state
      laws are available.

7.    We agree that in the event that at some future time we wish to dispose of
      or exchange any of our beneficial interest in the Trust, we will not
      transfer or exchange any of our beneficial interest in the Trust unless:

            (A) (1) if such transfer or exchange is a sale, the sale price is at
least $250,000, (2) the transfer or exchange is made to an Eligible Purchaser
(as defined below), (3) a letter to substantially the same effect as this letter
is executed promptly by such Eligible Purchaser or by an Eligible Dealer (as
defined below) on behalf of such Eligible Purchaser (4) all offers or
solicitations in connection with the sale (if a sale), whether made directly or
through any agent acting on our behalf, are limited only to Eligible Purchasers
and are not made by means of any form of general solicitation or general
advertising whatsoever and (5) the Trustee has received an Opinion of Counsel to
the effect that such transfer will not cause the Trust to be treated for U.S.
federal income tax purposes as an association (or publicly-traded partnership)
taxable as a corporation, and will not adversely affect the federal income tax
treatment of the Noteholders in any material respect; or

            (B) our beneficial interest in the Trust is sold in a transaction
that does not require registration under the 1933 Act and any applicable State
"Blue Sky" law.

            "Eligible Purchaser" means an Eligible Dealer or a corporation,
partnership or other entity which we have reasonable grounds to believe and do
believe can make representations with respect to itself to substantially the
same effect as the representations set forth herein.

            "Eligible Dealer" means any corporation or other entity having as a
principal business acting as a broker or dealer in securities.

8.    We understand that our Trust Certificate bears a legend to substantially
      the following effect:

THE BENEFICIAL INTEREST IN THE TRUST REPRESENTED BY THIS TRUST CERTIFICATE HAS
NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "ACT"), OR
ANY STATE SECURITIES LAW, AND MAY NOT BE DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY OFFERED OR SOLD
OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF (INCLUDING PLEDGED) BY THE HOLDER HEREOF UNLESS IN THE
OPINION OF COUNSEL SATISFACTORY TO THE TRUSTEE SUCH TRANSACTION IS EXEMPT FROM
REGISTRATION UNDER THE ACT AND STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THE TRANSFER OF THIS TRUST
CERTIFICATE WILL NOT BE EFFECTIVE UNLESS THE TRANSFEREE HAS DELIVERED TO THE
TRUSTEE A LETTER IN THE FORM REQUIRED BY SECTION 3.04 OF THE TRUST AGREEMENT AND

DEMONSTRATING THE TRANSFEREE'S COMPLIANCE WITH THE NET WORTH REQUIREMENTS OF
SECTION 3.04 OF THE TRUST AGREEMENT.

9.    It is not (i) an employee benefit plan, retirement arrangement, individual
      retirement account or Keogh plan subject to either Title I of the Employee
      Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, or Section 4975 of the
      Code, or (2) an entity (including an insurance company general account)
      whose underlying assets include plan assets by reason of the investment by
      such plans, arrangements or accounts in any such entity.

10.   It is a U.S. Person as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code.

11.   We agree to be bound by all the terms and conditions of our Trust
      Certificate and the Trust Agreement.

                                       Very truly yours,

such sale, exchange or liquidation as the Grantor shall, by written instructions
to the Eligible Lender Trustee, direct.

            (f) The Eligible Lender Trustee shall report to the Grantor all
claims for taxes, insurance premiums and other legal assessments, debts, charges
or claims of any type made against any money or other assets belonging to the
Trust, or which may be due and owing in connection with the Trust Estate of
which a Responsible Officer of the Eligible Lender Trustee has actual knowledge.
When directed in writing by the Grantor, the Eligible Lender Trustee shall
satisfy approved claims out of any money belonging to the Trust Estate, but the
Grantor expressly reserves the right to satisfy Trust debts with non-Trust
assets.

            (g) Subject to the indemnification rights set forth in Section 10
hereof, with the Grantor's express written approval and indemnification, the
Eligible Lender Trustee shall compromise, settle, arbitrate or defend any claim
or demand in favor of or against the Trust Estate, and shall enter upon such
contracts and agreements and make such compromises of debts, claims or
controversies respecting the Trust Estate as the Grantor shall direct by written
instructions to the Eligible Lender Trustee.

            (h) The Eligible Lender Trustee may execute any of the trusts or
powers hereof and perform any of its duties by or through attorneys, agents,
receivers or employees and shall not be answerable for the conduct of the same
if appointed with due care hereunder, and shall be entitled to advice of counsel
concerning all matters of trusts hereof and duties hereunder, and may in all
cases pay such reasonable compensation to any attorney, agent, receiver or
employee retained or employed by it in connection herewith. The Eligible Lender
Trustee may act upon the opinion or advice of an attorney or accountant selected
by it in the exercise of reasonable care or, if selected or retained by the
Grantor, approved by the Eligible Lender Trustee in the exercise of such care.
The Eligible Lender Trustee shall not be responsible for any loss or damage
resulting from any action or nonaction based on its good faith reliance upon
such opinion or advice.

            (i) The Eligible Lender Trustee shall not be liable in its
individual capacity for an error of judgment made in good faith by a Responsible
Officer or other officers of the Eligible Lender Trustee, unless it shall be
proved that the Eligible Lender Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the
pertinent facts. The Eligible Lender Trustee shall not be liable in its
individual capacity with respect to any action taken, suffered or omitted to be
taken by it in good faith in accordance with this Agreement or at the direction
of the Grantor. The right of the Eligible Lender Trustee to perform any
discretionary act enumerated in this Agreement shall not be construed as a duty,
and the Eligible Lender Trustee shall not be answerable for other than its
negligence or willful misconduct in the performance of such act. Under no
circumstances shall the Eligible Lender Trustee be personally liable for any
indebtedness of the Grantor or the Trust under any Basic Documents. For the
purposes of this Agreement, "Responsible Officer" means any officer assigned to
the Corporate Trust Division (or any successor thereto), including any Vice
President, Assistant Vice President, Trust Officer, any Assistant Secretary, any
trust officer or any other officer of the Eligible Lender Trustee customarily
performing functions similar to those performed by any of the above designated
officers, in each case having direct responsibility for the administration of
this Agreement.

            Section 8. Limitation on Eligible Lender Trustee's Duties. (a) The
Eligible Lender Trustee shall perform only those duties as may be required from
time to time under the terms of this Agreement in connection with the Eligible
Lender Trustee's holding of Trust Student Loans that comprise the Trust Estate.
The Eligible Lender Trustee shall have no obligation to the Grantor to
administer, service or collect such Trust Student Loans or to maintain or
monitor administration, servicing or collection procedures followed in
connection with such Trust Student Loans, except insofar as specific functions
in that regard are required of the Eligible Lender Trustee pursuant to the
express terms of Section 7 hereof and appropriate written instructions and
indemnity of the Grantor. The Eligible Lender Trustee shall not be required to
expend any of its own funds in connection with this Agreement or its duties
hereunder or under any related documents or agreements pertaining to the Trust
Estate.

            (b) Notwithstanding any other provisions in this Agreement, nothing
in this Agreement shall be construed to limit the Eligible Lender Trustee's
legal responsibility to the Secretary of Education in its capacity as Eligible
Lender Trustee for any violations of statutory or regulatory requirements that
may occur with respect to Trust Student Loans in the Portfolio, pursuant to 34
CFR ss.682.203(b) or any successor provision thereto. The Eligible Lender
Trustee agrees not to delay paying any liability the Eligible Lender Trustee
owes to the Secretary by reason of such a violation for the purpose of first
being indemnified by the Grantor for such payment.

            (c) The Eligible Lender Trustee shall not be responsible for any
recital herein or for the recording or re-recording, filing, re-filing of any
document or any supplement or amendment thereto, or the filing of financial
statements, or for the validity of the execution by the Grantor of this
Agreement, or of any supplemental agreements or instruments of further
assurance, or for the value or title of the property herein conveyed or
otherwise as to the maintenance of the security hereof.

            (d) The Eligible Lender Trustee shall be protected in acting in
reasonable reliance upon any notice, order, requisition, request, consent,
certificate, order, opinion (including an opinion of counsel, which may be
counsel for the Grantor or the Eligible Lender Trustee's in-house counsel),
affidavit, letter, telegram or other paper or document in good faith deemed by
it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed or sent by the proper
person or persons.

            (e) As to the existence or non-existence of any fact or as to the
sufficiency or validity of any instrument, paper or proceeding, the Eligible
Lender Trustee shall be entitled to rely upon a certificate signed by an
authorized officer on behalf of the Grantor as sufficient evidence of the facts
therein contained.

            (f) The permissive right of the Eligible Lender Trustee to do things
enumerated in this Agreement shall not be construed as a duty.

            Section 9. Administration and Servicing of Portfolio. (a) The
Grantor is hereby appointed by the Eligible Lender Trustee as its agent to
originate, manage, service, administer, and make collections on Trust Student
Loans in the Portfolio. The Grantor shall perform its duties with reasonable
care, following its customary standards, policies and procedures and using that
degree of skill and attention that the Grantor exercises with respect to all
comparable loans that it originates, services, or administers for itself or
others. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Grantor is
authorized and empowered by the Eligible Lender Trustee to execute and deliver,
on behalf of itself, the Eligible Lender Trustee or both of them, any and all
instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, or partial or full release or
discharge, and all other comparable instruments, with respect to the Trust
Student Loans in the Portfolio, except as otherwise required by the Act. The
Eligible Lender Trustee will furnish the Grantor with any powers of attorney or
other documents reasonably necessary or appropriate to enable the Grantor to
carry out its servicing and administrative duties hereunder.

            (b) The Grantor may at any time without notice or consent delegate
any or all of its duties under this Agreement to any person; provided that the
Grantor shall at all times retain full responsibility for the duties performed
by any such party. The Grantor may at any time perform specific duties under
this Agreement through subcontractors provided that the Grantor shall at all
times retain full responsibility for the duties performed by such
subcontractors.

            (c) To assure uniform quality in origination and servicing of the
Trust Student Loans and to reduce administrative costs, the Eligible Lender
Trustee hereby appoints the Grantor, and the Grantor accepts such appointment,
to act as agent of the Eligible Lender Trustee as custodian of the Trust Student
Loans in the Portfolio, which are hereby constructively delivered to the
Eligible Lender Trustee with respect to each such Trust Student Loan.

            Section 10. Compensation and Indemnification of Eligible Lender
Trustee. The Eligible Lender Trustee shall be entitled to reasonable
compensation for all services rendered by it in the execution of the trust
created hereunder and in the exercise and performance of any of the powers and
duties of the Eligible Lender Trustee hereunder. The Eligible Lender Trustee
shall also be entitled to reimbursement from the Grantor for all reasonable
costs and out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Eligible Lender Trustee. Such
costs and expenses shall be billed to the Grantor at the cost of the Eligible
Lender Trustee. Such expenses shall include all expenses, disbursements and
advances incurred or made by the Eligible Lender Trustee in accordance with the
duties required under any of the provisions of this Agreement (including the
reasonable compensation and the expenses and disbursements of its counsel and of
all persons not regularly in its employ) and those duties expressly required by
law which may not be transferred to the Grantor.

            The Grantor hereby agrees to promptly indemnify the Eligible Lender
Trustee and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Eligible Lender
Trustee for, and to hold them harmless against, any loss, liability, claim,
expense (including, without limitation, costs and expenses of litigation and of
investigation counsel fees, damages, judgments and amounts paid in settlement)
or advance incurred or made without negligence or bad faith on the part of the
Eligible Lender Trustee, including without limitation reasonable attorneys' fees
and expenses, arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or
administration of the Trust or this Agreement pursuant hereto, including without
limitation, the servicing of the Portfolio by third-party servicers pursuant to
Section 3 above. Such indemnification by the Grantor shall survive the
termination of this Agreement and/or resignation or removal of the Eligible
Lender Trustee and shall include, without limitation, any loss, liability,
expense or advance incurred or made by the Eligible Lender Trustee as a result
of the acts or omissions of any servicer in the organization or servicing of any
of the Trust Student Loans.

            Section 11. Resignation and Removal of Eligible Lender Trustee and
Appointment of Successor to the Eligible Lender Trustee. (a) The Eligible Lender
Trustee may at any time resign by giving written notice to the Grantor. Upon
receiving such notice of resignation, the Grantor shall promptly appoint a
successor to the Eligible Lender Trustee by an instrument in writing. If no
successor to the Eligible Lender Trustee shall have been so appointed and have
accepted appointment within 30 days after the giving of such notice of
resignation, the Grantor shall have an additional 30 days to secure a successor
to the Eligible Lender Trustee for the Trust Estate. If the Grantor has not
appointed a successor to the Eligible Lender Trustee within 60 days after the
Eligible Lender Trustee has given its notice of resignation, the Eligible Lender
Trustee shall have the authority to petition, at the expense of the Grantor, a
court of competent jurisdiction to appoint a successor to the Eligible Lender
Trustee.

            (b) The Grantor may at any time remove the Eligible Lender Trustee
and appoint a successor to the Eligible Lender Trustee by written instrument.

            (c) Any resignation or removal of the Eligible Lender Trustee and
appointment of a successor to the Eligible Lender Trustee, pursuant to any of
the provisions of this section, shall become effective only upon the effective
date of appointment by the successor to the Eligible Lender Trustee.

            Section 12. Assignment; Corporate Changes in Eligible Lender
Trustee. Any bank, corporation or other entity into which the Eligible Lender
Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated; any
bank, corporation or other entity resulting from any merger, conversion or
consolidation to which the Eligible Lender Trustee shall be a party; and any
bank, corporation or other entity to which the Eligible Lender Trustee's rights
and obligations hereunder are assigned, shall be the Eligible Lender Trustee
under this Agreement without any further act, provided the resulting bank,
corporation, assignee or other entity at all times meets the qualifications set
forth in Section 14 hereof. The Eligible Lender Trustee's rights and obligations
hereunder may not be assigned to an entity that would not meet the
qualifications set forth in Section 14 hereof upon receipt of such assignment.
The Eligible Lender Trustee shall take responsible steps to ensure that an
entity that becomes a successor to the Eligible Lender Trustee under this
section meets the qualifications set forth in Section 15 at all times during
which such successor to the Eligible Lender Trustee holds legal title to the
Trust Student Loans comprising the Portfolio. The Eligible Lender Trustee shall
use its commercially reasonable efforts to give the Grantor at least 120 days'
written notice after any corporate change described in this Section 12.

            Section 13. Termination. The Grantor may at any time, in accordance
with the provisions of Section 6 hereof, direct the Eligible Lender Trustee to
distribute all of the assets then held in trust to the Grantor or such other
Person as the Grantor may designate in writing, and upon such distribution this
Agreement and the Trust created hereunder shall terminate.

            Section 14. Qualifications of Eligible Lender Trustee and Successor
to the Eligible Lender Trustee. The Eligible Lender Trustee, and any successor
to the Eligible Lender Trustee, shall at all times during which it holds legal
title to the Trust Student Loans comprising the Portfolio maintain (a) eligible
lender status under the Act; (b) an eligible lender identification number, as
eligible lender trustee for the Grantor, issued by the Secretary of Education;
(c) at the written direction of the Grantor, all Guarantee Agreements with all

Lender Trustee hereunder; and (d) all corporate powers and governmental
licenses, authorizations, consents, and approvals required for it to act as
Eligible Lender Trustee and hold legal title to the Trust Student Loans
comprising the Portfolio.

            Section 15. Quarterly Reports to Eligible Lender Trustee. Not later
than 60 days following the end of each calendar quarter during the term hereof,
the Grantor shall provide to the Eligible Lender Trustee a report setting forth
the total dollar amount of loan disbursements made or acquired for the Trust
Estate during such calendar quarter.

            Section 16. Governing Law. This Eligible Lender Trust Agreement
shall be governed by the laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to
principles of conflicts of law.

            Section 17. Miscellaneous Provisions. All covenants and agreements
herein and statements delivered pursuant hereto shall bind and inure to the
benefit of the parties hereto and their respective permitted successors and
assigns. This agreement supersedes all previous agreements and understandings
between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof. The Agreement may
only be changed, modified, or discharged, and any rights or obligations
hereunder may only be waived, by a written instrument signed by a duly
authorized officer of the party against whom enforcement any such waiver,
change, modification or discharge is sought.

Lender Trust Agreement which are prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction
shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition
or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and

invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

            Section 20. Counterparts. This Eligible Lender Trust Agreement may
be executed by the parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when
