Allocation and Application of Collections Any provisions of Article 4 of the Base Indenture and the Series 2000-1 Supplement which allocate and apply Collections shall continue to apply irrespective of the issuance of the Series 1998-1 Notes. Sections 4.1 through 4.5 of the Base Indenture shall be read in their entirety as provided in the Base Indenture, provided that for purposes of the Series 1998-1 Notes, clauses (c), (d) and (e) of Section 4.2 of the Base Indenture shall be modified as permitted by Section 11.1(f) of the Base Indenture and shall read as follows:
Collection of Mortgage Loan Payments; Protected Account (a) The Master Servicer shall make reasonable efforts in accordance with customary and usual standards of practice of prudent mortgage lenders in the respective states in which the Mortgaged Properties are located to collect all payments called for under the terms and provisions of the Mortgage Loans to the extent such procedures shall be consistent with this Agreement and the terms and provisions of any related Required Insurance Policy. Consistent with the foregoing, the Master Servicer may in its discretion (i) waive any late payment charge and (ii) extend the due dates for payments due on a Mortgage Note for a period not greater than 125 days. In the event of any such arrangement, the Master Servicer shall make Advances on the related Mortgage Loan during the scheduled period in accordance with the amortization schedule of such Mortgage Loan without modification thereof by reason of such arrangements, and shall be entitled to reimbursement therefor in accordance with Section 5.01. The Master Servicer shall not be required to institute or join in litigation with respect to collection of any payment (whether under a Mortgage, Mortgage Note or otherwise or against any public or governmental authority with respect to a taking or condemnation) if it reasonably believes that enforcing the provision of the Mortgage or other instrument pursuant to which such payment is required is prohibited by applicable law. In addition, if (x) a Mortgage Loan is in default or default is reasonably foreseeable, the Master Servicer may also waive, modify or vary any term of any Mortgage Loan or consent to the postponement of strict compliance with any such term or in any manner grant indulgence to any mortgagor, including without limitation, to (1) capitalize any amounts owing on the Mortgage Loan by adding such amount to the outstanding principal balance of the Mortgage Loan, (2) defer such amounts to a later date or the final payment date of such Mortgage Loan, (3) extend the maturity of any such Mortgage Loan, but in no instance past the date on which the final payment is due on the latest maturing Mortgage Loan as of the Cut-off Date, and/or (4) reduce the related Mortgage Rate (subject to clause (y) below), provided that, in the Master Servicer’s determination, such waiver, modification, postponement or indulgence is not materially adverse to the interests of the Certificateholders (taking into account any estimated Realized Loss that might result absent such action), or (y) the Master Servicer delivers to the Trustee a certification addressed to the Trustee, based on the advice of counsel or certified public accountants, in either case, that have a national reputation with respect to taxation of REMICs, that a modification of such Mortgage Loan will not result in the imposition of taxes on or disqualify from REMIC status any of REMIC I, REMIC II, REMIC III, REMIC IV or REMIC V, the Master Servicer may, (A) amend the related Mortgage Note to reduce the Mortgage Rate applicable thereto, provided that such reduced Mortgage Rate shall in no event be lower than 5.00% with respect to any Mortgage Loan and (B) amend any Mortgage Note to extend the maturity thereof. The Master Servicer shall not waive (or permit a sub-servicer to waive) any Prepayment Charge unless: (i) the enforceability thereof shall have been limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium, receivership and other similar laws relating to creditors’ rights generally, (ii) the enforcement thereof is illegal, or any local, state or federal agency has threatened legal action if the prepayment penalty is enforced, (iii) the mortgage debt has been accelerated in connection with a foreclosure or other involuntary payment or (iv) such waiver is standard and customary in servicing similar Mortgage Loans and relates to a default or a reasonably foreseeable default and would, in the reasonable judgment of the Master Servicer, maximize recovery of total proceeds taking into account the value of such Prepayment Charge and the related Mortgage Loan. If a Prepayment Charge is waived, but does not meet the standards described above, then the Master Servicer is required to pay the amount of such waived Prepayment Charge, for the benefit of the Class C Certificates, by remitting such amount to the Trustee by the Distribution Account Deposit Date.
Collection of Taxes, Assessments and Similar Items; Servicing Accounts (a) The Master Servicer shall establish and maintain one or more accounts (the “Servicing Accounts”), into which all Escrow Payments shall be deposited and retained, and shall administer such Servicing Accounts in accordance with the Mortgage Loan documents and, if applicable, the Companion Loan documents. Any Servicing Account related to a Serviced Whole Loan shall be held for the benefit of the Certificateholders and the related Serviced Companion Noteholder collectively, but this shall not be construed to modify respective interests of either noteholder therein as set forth in the related Intercreditor Agreement. Amounts on deposit in Servicing Accounts may only be invested in accordance with the terms of the related Mortgage Loan documents or in Permitted Investments in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.06. Servicing Accounts shall be Eligible Accounts to the extent permitted by the terms of the related Mortgage Loan documents. Withdrawals of amounts so deposited from a Servicing Account may be made only to: (i) effect payment of items for which Escrow Payments were collected and comparable items; (ii) reimburse the Trustee and then the Master Servicer, if applicable, for any Servicing Advances; (iii) refund to Mortgagors any sums as may be determined to be overages; (iv) pay interest to Mortgagors on balances in the Servicing Account, if required by applicable law or the terms of the related Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan and as described below or, if not so required, to the Master Servicer; (v) after the occurrence of an event of default under the related Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan, apply amounts to the indebtedness under the applicable Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan; (vi) withdraw amounts deposited in error; (vii) pay Penalty Charges to the extent permitted by the related Mortgage Loan documents; or (viii) clear and terminate the Servicing Account at the termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 9.01. As part of its servicing duties, the Master Servicer shall pay or cause to be paid to the Mortgagors interest on funds in Servicing Accounts, to the extent required by law or the terms of the related Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan; provided, however, that in no event shall the Master Servicer be required to remit to any Mortgagor any amounts in excess of actual net investment income or funds in the related Servicing Account. If allowed by the related Mortgage Loan documents and applicable law, the Master Servicer may charge the related Mortgagor an administrative fee for maintenance of the Servicing Accounts.
Collection of Trust Student Loan Payments A. The Servicer shall make reasonable efforts (including all efforts that may be specified under the Higher Education Act or any Guarantee Agreement) to collect all payments called for under the terms and provisions of the Trust Student Loans as and when the same shall become due and shall follow such collection procedures as it follows with respect to similar student loans that it services on behalf of SLM Corporation or any of its Affiliates. The Servicer shall allocate collections with respect to the Trust Student Loans between principal, interest and fees in accordance with Section 2.5 of the Administration Agreement. The Servicer may in its discretion waive any late payment charge or any other fees that may be collected in the ordinary course of servicing a Trust Student Loan. The Servicer may, at its option, retain any late payment charges that it collects.

Debtor irrevocably authorizes Bank or any Bank employee or agent to endorse the name of Debtor upon any checks or other items which are received in payment for any Collateral, and to do any and all things necessary in order to reduce these items to money. Bank shall have no duty as to the collection or protection of Collateral or the proceeds of it, nor as to the preservation of any related rights, beyond the use of reasonable care in the custody and preservation of Collateral in the possession of Bank. Debtor agrees to take all steps necessary to preserve rights against prior parties with respect to the Collateral. Nothing in this Section 3.1 shall be deemed a consent by Bank to any sale, lease or other disposition of any Collateral.
Allocation of Charges There is not any agreement or understanding between the Servicer and the Borrower (other than as expressly set forth herein or as consented to by the Administrative Agent), providing for the allocation or sharing of obligations to make payments or otherwise in respect of any taxes, fees, assessments or other governmental charges; provided that it is understood and acknowledged that the Borrower will be consolidated with the Servicer for tax purposes.

Any such investment shall mature and such funds shall be available for withdrawal on or prior to the Series Transfer Date related to the Monthly Period in which such funds were received or deposited, or if so specified in the related Series Supplement, immediately preceding a Payment Date.

Subject to the restrictions set forth above, the Issuer, or a Person designated in writing by the Issuer, of which the Trustee shall have received written notification thereof, shall have the authority to instruct the Trustee with respect to the investment of funds on deposit in the Collection Account.
