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.
Maturity of the Funding Agreement Upon the maturity of the Funding Agreement and the return of funds thereunder, the Trust hereby directs the Indenture Trustee to set aside from such funds an amount sufficient for the repayment of the outstanding principal on the Notes and Trust Beneficial Interest when due.
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 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 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.

Supplemental Funding Unless otherwise defined by program rules, Supplemental Funding is the award of additional funds to provide for an increase in costs due to unforeseen circumstances. The State will comply with all Federal program agency policies and procedures for requesting supplemental grant funding. The State will comply with the following guidelines when requesting supplemental funding for the Medical Assistance Program and associated administrative payments (CFDA 93.778): The State must submit a revised Medicaid Program Budget Report (CMS-37) to request supplemental funding. The CMS guidelines and instructions for completing the CMS-37 are provided in Section 2600F of the State Medicaid Manual (SMM). The CMS/CO must receive the revised Form CMS-37 through the Medicaid Budget Expenditure System/Children's Budget Expenditure System (MBES/CBES) no later than 10 calendar days before the end of the quarter for which the supplemental grant award is being requested. Additional guidance on this policy is available from the respective CMS Regional Office, U.S. Department of Health & Human Services. The State will comply with the following guidelines when requesting supplemental funding for TANF (CFDA 93.558), CCDF (CFDA 93.575), CSE (93.563), and the FC/AA (CFDA 93.658 and CFDA 93.659) programs administered by the U.S. Department of Human Services, Administration for Children and Families (HHS/ACF):
a. Timing of the Request A State should initiate its request for supplemental funding during a quarter as soon as it becomes aware of the fact that a shortfall does/will exist. For the TANF and CCDF grants, supplemental funding requests (estimates) may be submitted by a State, for consideration by ACF, up through and including the 15th day of the third month of the first, second or third quarter of any fiscal year. Since TANF and CCDF are block grant programs, all unawarded portions of the annual allotment will automatically be issued at the beginning of the fourth quarter. Therefore, supplemental funding requests will not be available during the fourth quarter for these programs. For the CSE and FC/AA programs, supplemental funding requests may be submitted by a state, for consideration by ACF, up through and including the 15th day of the third month of any quarter of a fiscal year.
Repurchase of Mortgage Loans with First Payment Defaults With respect to any Mortgage Loan, in the event that the first scheduled payment of principal and interest due either (i) after origination of such Mortgage Loan, or (ii) after the related Closing Date is not paid within sixty (60) days of the related Due Date, the Seller, at the Purchaser's option, shall repurchase such Mortgage Loan from the Purchaser at the Repurchase Price. The Seller shall repurchase such delinquent Mortgage Loan within thirty (30) days of such request unless the Seller can provide evidence reasonably acceptable to the Purchaser in its good faith discretion that such delinquency was due to a servicing error. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Purchaser may, in its sole discretion, elect to submit for the Seller's consideration a revised Purchase Price Percentage (as defined in the related Purchase Price and Terms Agreement) (in each case, a "Revised Pricing Offer") with respect to any such Mortgage Loan. Thereafter, the Seller shall accept or reject such Revised Pricing Offer. In the event the Seller rejects a Revised Pricing Offer, the applicable Mortgage Loan shall be repurchased pursuant to the previous paragraph. In the event the Seller accepts a Revised Pricing Offer with respect to any such Mortgage Loan (such loan, a "Repriced Mortgage Loan") the Seller shall refund to the Purchaser an amount equal to (i) the product of (x) the difference between the original related Purchase Price Percentage and (y) the applicable Revised Pricing Offer, and (ii) the outstanding principal balance of such Repriced Mortgage Loan as of the related Cut-off Date (such product, in each case, the "Repricing Adjustment"), plus accrued interest on such Repricing Adjustment calculated at the federal funds rate as of the related Closing Date. Such amount shall be paid by the Seller to the Purchaser within thirty (30) days thereof.

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.
