Section 3.03 Due Dates for Payments

(A) Except as provided in Section 3.03(B), the Client shall pay the Servicer for Services rendered in each month on the 27^th day of the following month (or, if such day is not a Business Day, on the next Business Day).

Any amount in dispute that does not exceed $5,000 shall be paid as provided in Section 3.03(A). The parties will use best efforts to resolve any disputes within 90 days of the date payment would otherwise be due.

A borrower who is a member of the National Guard or other reserve component of the U.S. Armed Forces (current or retired) and who begins serving Qualifying Duty while enrolled at ITT Technical Institute, or within six (6) months after having been enrolled, is eligible to defer paying any principal or interest on a loan during the Qualifying Duty service and during the 13 months following the conclusion of the Qualifying Duty service, or until the date that the borrower returns to an enrolled student status at ITT Technical Institute, whichever is earlier.

6) Forbearance

A borrower may request a forbearance of the payment of principal and interest on a loan, which Student CU Connect CUSO will grant in its sole discretion. Any single forbearance in the payment of a loan may not exceed three (3) months, and all forbearances granted with respect to a loan may not, in aggregate, exceed twelve (12) months over the life of the loan. If the borrower is delinquent at the time a forbearance is granted, all past due interest on the loan will be capitalized.

7) Interest Rate

Interest will accrue at a variable rate (based on the borrower’s FICO score, see “‘Interest Rate and Origination Fee” above), beginning on the date that any portion of the loan is disbursed, on the outstanding principal balance, including any capitalized interest and origination fees. The variable rate may change monthly on the first day of each month based on the Prime Rate as of the third to last business day of the immediately preceding month. The Prime Rate is defined as the highest U.S. Prime Rate published in The Wall Street Journal “Money Rates” section. The Servicer shall calculate the rate change each month.

The applicable interest rate will be rounded to the nearest one-eighth of one percent (0.125%). In the event of a change in the Prime Rate, monthly payments will be calculated based on the then current principal balance, the remaining term of the loan, and the then current interest rate, based on a 365.25-day calendar year and will not vary in leap years.

E-4

Notwithstanding any other provisions herein, at no time will the applicable interest rate, inclusive of the capitalized origination fee, be such that the annual percentage rate on any loan exceeds eighteen percent (18%), or such other limit under applicable law as in effect from time to time.

To be eligible to co-sign a loan, a co-signer must have a FICO score of at least 680 and satisfy other criteria specified above in Sections 1 (other than 1(a)) and 3. Loans with an eligible co-signer will be charged interest and fees at the Tier 4 level in Section 4 above.

A loan will be charged off if payments under the loan are due and not received for a period of one hundred and eighty (180) days.
