Establishment of Trust Account The Owner Trustee, for the benefit of the Certificateholders, shall establish and maintain in the name of the Trust an Eligible Deposit Account (the "Certificate Distribution Account"), bearing a designation clearly indicating that the funds deposited therein are held for the benefit of the Certificateholders. The Owner Trustee shall possess all right, title and interest in all funds on deposit from time to time in the Certificate Distribution Account and in all proceeds thereof. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, the Certificate Distribution Account shall be under the sole dominion and control of the Owner Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders. If, at any time, the Certificate Distribution Account ceases to be an Eligible Deposit Account, the Owner Trustee (or the Depositor on behalf of the Owner Trustee, if the Certificate Distribution Account is not then held by the Owner Trustee or an affiliate thereof) shall within 10 Business Days (or such longer period, not to exceed 30 calendar days, as to which each Rating Agency may consent) establish a new Certificate Distribution Account as an Eligible Deposit Account and shall transfer any cash and/or any investments to such new Certificate Distribution Account.
Administration and Servicing of the Trust Fund Section 3.01 Master Servicer to Act as Master Servicer; Special
Purchase of Trust Student Loans; Reimbursement A. The Servicer, the Administrator, the Eligible Lender Trustee and the Indenture Trustee shall give notice to the other parties promptly, in writing, upon the discovery of any breach of the provisions of Section 3.1, 3.2, 3.3 or 3.4 which has a material adverse effect on the interest of the Issuer. In the event of such a material breach which is not curable by reinstatement of the Guarantor’s guarantee of such Trust Student Loan, the Servicer shall purchase the affected Trust Student Loan not later than 120 days following the earlier of the date of discovery of such material breach and the date of receipt of the Guarantor reject transmittal form with respect to such Trust Student Loan. In the event of a material breach with respect to such Trust Student Loan which is curable by reinstatement of the Guarantor’s guarantee of such Trust Student Loan, unless the material breach shall have been cured within 360 days following the earlier of the date of discovery of such material breach and the date of receipt of the Guarantor reject transmittal form with respect to such Trust Student Loan, the Servicer shall purchase such Trust Student Loan not later than the sixtieth day following the end of such 360-day period. The purchase price hereunder will be the unpaid principal amount of such Trust Student Loan plus accrued and unpaid interest (calculated using the applicable percentage that would have been insured pursuant to Section 428(b)(1)(G) of the Higher Education Act) plus an amount equal to all net forfeited Interest Subsidy Payments and Special Allowance Payments with respect to such Trust Student Loan (to the extent not already included in the purchase price). In consideration of the purchase of any such Trust Student Loan pursuant to this Section 3.5, the Servicer shall remit the purchase price to the Administrator in the manner and at the time specified in Section 2.6 of the Administration Agreement. Any breach that relates to compliance with the requirements of the Higher Education Act or of the applicable Guarantor but that does not affect such Guarantor’s obligation to guarantee payments of a Trust Student Loan will not be considered to have a material adverse effect for purposes of this Section 3.5A.
B. In addition, if any breach of Section 3.1, 3.2, 3.3 or 3.4 by the Servicer does not trigger such purchase obligation but does result in the refusal by a Guarantor to guarantee all or a portion of the accrued interest (or any obligation of the Issuer to repay such interest to a Guarantor), or the loss (including any obligation of the Issuer to repay to the Department) of Interest Subsidy Payments and Special Allowance Payments, with respect to any Trust Student Loan affected by such breach, then the Servicer shall reimburse the Issuer in an amount equal to the sum of all such nonguaranteed interest amounts that would have been owed to the Issuer by the Guarantor but for such breach by the Servicer and such forfeited Interest Subsidy Payments or Special Allowance Payments by netting such sum against the Servicing Fee payable to the Servicer for such period and remitting any additional amounts owed in the manner specified in Section 2.6 of the Administration Agreement not later than (i) the last day of the next Collection Period ending not less than 30 days from the date of the Guarantor’s refusal to guarantee all or a portion of accrued interest or loss of Interest Subsidy Payments or Special Allowance Payments, or (ii) in the case where the Servicer reasonably believes such amounts are likely to be collected, not later than the last day of the next Collection Period ending not less than 360 days from the date of the Guarantor’s refusal to guarantee all or a portion of accrued interest or loss of Interest Subsidy Payments or Special Allowance Payments. At the time such payment is made, the Servicer shall not be required to reimburse the Issuer for interest that is then capitalized, however, such amounts shall be reimbursed if the borrower subsequently defaults and such capitalized interest is not paid by the Guarantor.
C. Anything in this Section 3.5 to the contrary notwithstanding, if as of the last Business Day of any month the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Trust Student Loans with respect to which claims have been filed with and rejected by a Guarantor or with respect to which the Servicer determines that claims cannot be filed pursuant to the Higher Education Act as a result of a breach by the Servicer or the Depositor, exceeds 1% of the Pool Balance, the Servicer or the Seller, as appropriate, shall purchase, within 30 days of a written request of the Indenture Trustee, such affected Trust Student Loans in an aggregate principal amount such that after such purchase the aggregate outstanding principal amount of such affected Trust Student Loans is less than 1% of the Pool Balance. The Trust Student Loans to be purchased by the Servicer or the Depositor pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be based on the date of claim rejection (or date of notice referred to in the first sentence of this Section 3.5) with the Trust Student Loans with the earliest such date to be purchased first.
D. In lieu of purchasing Trust Student Loans pursuant to this Section 3.5, the Servicer may, at its option, with the prior consent of the Administrator, arrange for the substitution of Student Loans which are substantially similar as of the date of substitution on an aggregate basis to the Trust Student Loans for which they are being substituted with respect to the following characteristics:
(1) status (i.e., in-school, grace, deferment, forbearance or repayment);
(2) program type (i.e., unsubsidized or subsidized Sxxxxxxx Loans (pre-1993 v. post-1993), PLUS Loans or SLS Loans);
(3) guarantee percentage;
(4) school type;
(5) total return;
(6) principal balance; and
(7) remaining term to maturity. In addition, each substituted Student Loan shall comply, as of the date of substitution, with the representations and warranties made by the Depositor in the Sale Agreement. In choosing Student Loans to be substituted pursuant to this subsection D, the Servicer shall make a reasonable determination that the Student Loans to be substituted will not have a material adverse effect on the Noteholders. In the event the Servicer elects to substitute Student Loans pursuant to this Section 3.5 and the Administrator consents to such substitution, the Servicer will remit to the Administrator the amount of any shortfall between the Purchase Amount of the substituted Student Loans and the Purchase Amount of the Trust Student Loans for which they are being substituted. The Servicer shall also remit to the Administrator an amount equal to all nonguaranteed interest amounts that would have been owed to the Issuer by the Guarantor but for the breach of the Servicer and forfeited Interest Subsidy Payments and Special Allowance Payments with respect to the Trust Student Loans in the manner provided in Section 2.6 of the Administration Agreement.
E. The sole remedy of the Issuer, the Eligible Lender Trustee, the Indenture Trustee and the Noteholders with respect to a breach pursuant to Section 3.1, 3.2, 3.3 or 3.4 shall be to require the Servicer to purchase Trust Student Loans, to reimburse the Issuer as provided above or to substitute Student Loans pursuant to this Section.
F. The Eligible Lender Trustee shall have no duty to conduct any affirmative investigation as to the occurrence of any condition requiring the purchase of any Trust Student Loan or the reimbursement for any interest penalty pursuant to this Section 3.5.
G. The Servicer shall not be deemed to have breached its obligations pursuant to Section 3.1, 3.2, 3.3 or 3.4 if it is rendered unable to perform such obligations, in whole or in part, by a force outside the control of the parties hereto (including acts of God, acts of war, fires, earthquakes, hurricanes, floods and other disasters). The Servicer shall diligently perform its duties under this Agreement as soon as practicable following the termination of such interruption of business.
H. The Servicer also will have an option, but not the obligation, to purchase any Trust Student Loan on any date; provided that the Servicer may not purchase Trust Student Loans if the aggregate outstanding principal balance thereof (at the time of purchase) exceeds 2.0% of the Initial Pool Balance as of the date of determination. To exercise such option, the Servicer shall notify the Administrator, the Depositor, the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee thereof in advance in writing, and the Servicer shall deposit into the Collection Account an amount equal to the purchase price, as calculated pursuant to Section 3.5.A hereof, for the Trust Student Loans so purchased.
Audit of trust accounts Unless the Depositor determines that such an audit is not required, the accounts of the Trust shall be audited not less than annually by independent public accountants designated from time to time by the Depositor and the Trustee and the reports of such accountants shall be furnished upon request to Unit holders. So long as the Depositor is making a secondary market for Units, the Depositor shall bear the cost of such annual audits to the extent such cost exceeds $.50 per 100 Units.

In the event of such a material breach which is not curable by reinstatement of the applicable Guarantor’s guarantee of such Trust Student Loan, SLM ECFC shall repurchase any affected Trust Student Loan not later than 120 days following the earlier of the date of discovery of such material breach and the date of receipt of the Guarantor reject transmittal form with respect to such Trust Student Loan. In the event of such a material breach which is curable by reinstatement of the Guarantor’s guarantee of such Trust Student Loan, unless the material breach shall have been cured within 360 days following the earlier of the date of discovery of such material breach and the date of receipt of the Guarantor reject transmittal form with respect to such Trust Student Loan, SLM ECFC shall purchase such Trust Student Loan not later than the sixtieth day following the end of such 360-day period.

In consideration of the purchase of any such Trust Student Loan pursuant to this Section 6(A), SLM ECFC shall remit the Purchase Amount in the manner specified in Section 2.6 of the Administration Agreement. In addition, if any breach of Sections 5(A) and (B) hereof by SLM ECFC does not trigger such repurchase obligation but does result in the refusal by a Guarantor to guarantee all or a portion of the accrued interest (or any obligation of Funding to repay such interest to a Guarantor), or the loss (including any obligation of Funding to repay the Department) of Interest Subsidy Payments and Special Allowance Payments, with respect to any Trust Student Loan affected by such breach, then SLM ECFC shall reimburse Funding by remitting an amount equal to the sum of all such non-guaranteed interest amounts and such forfeited Interest Subsidy Payments or Special Allowance Payments in the manner specified in Section 2.6 of the Administration Agreement not later than (i) the last day of the next Collection Period ending not less than 60 days from the date of the Guarantor’s refusal to guarantee all or a portion of accrued interest or loss of Interest Subsidy Payments or Special Allowance Payments, or (ii) in the case where SLM ECFC reasonably believes such losses are likely to be collected, not later than the last day of the next Collection Period ending not less than 360 days from the date of the Guarantor’s refusal to guarantee all or a portion of accrued interest or loss of Interest Subsidy Payments or Special Allowance Payments.

(B) In lieu of repurchasing Trust Student Loans pursuant to Section 6(A), SLM ECFC may, at its option, substitute Eligible Loans or arrange for the substitution of Eligible Loans which are substantially similar on an aggregate basis as of the date of substitution to the Trust Student Loans for which they are being substituted with respect to the following characteristics:
1. status (i.e., in-school, grace, deferment, forbearance or repayment),

3. guarantee percentage,
4. school type,
5. total return,
6. principal balance, and
7. remaining term to maturity. In addition, each substituted Eligible Loan will comply, as of the date of substitution, with all of the representations and warranties made hereunder.

In connection with each substitution a Purchase Agreement and related Xxxx of Sale regarding such Substituted Loans will be executed and delivered by the applicable parties. In the event that SLM ECFC elects to substitute Eligible Loans pursuant to this Section 6(B), SLM ECFC will remit to the Administrator the amount of any shortfall between the Purchase Amount of the substituted Eligible Loans and the Purchase Amount of the Trust Student Loans for which they are being substituted. SLM ECFC shall also remit to the Administrator an amount equal to all non-guaranteed interest amounts and forfeited Interest Subsidy Payments and Special Allowance Payments with respect to the Trust Student Loans in the manner provided in Section 2.6 of the Administration Agreement.
(C) The sole remedy of Funding, the Eligible Lender Trustee and the Noteholders with respect to a breach by SLM ECFC pursuant to Sections 5(A) and (B) hereof shall be to require SLM ECFC to purchase such Trust Student Loans, to reimburse Funding as provided in Section 6(A) above or to substitute Eligible Loans pursuant to Section 6(B) above.
