and all Notes Guaranteed by USA Funds held or acquired by the Lender from time
to time, it will:
1. Exercise or cause to be exercised reasonable care and diligence in the
making, servicing, and collection of Consolidation Loans, as prescribed in this
Agreement, the Certificate, and the Policies;
2. Originate a Consolidation Loan to an Eligible Borrower (on request of that
Borrower) only if the Eligible Borrower certifies that he or she has no other
application pending for a Consolidation Loan and (i) lender holds an outstanding
Eligible Loan of that Eligible Borrower that has been selected by the Eligible

the filing of a claim by the Lender, such claim will be processed in the
following manner:
1. In the event of a Default, the Lender will follow (or cause to be followed)
the procedures set forth in the Policies. USA Funds does not guarantee payment
by the Borrower of any delinquency charges imposed for late payments and will
not accept a Default claim based solely
4
on non-payment of such charges. Upon receipt by USA Funds from the Lender (or
servicer) of a Default notice together with an original or certified copy of the
Note assigned to USA Funds, the Consolidation Loan Application, and
documentation as set forth in the Policies that the Consolidation Loan evidenced
by such Note was originated and serviced, and collection efforts were made, in
accordance with applicable laws and regulations and with the Policies, USA Funds
will pay to the Lender the maximum percentage of the unpaid balance of principal
and interest due on such Consolidation Loan under the terms of the Act and the
Policies (other than any portion of such interest payable by the U.S. Department
of Education under the Act), provided the Lender (or loan servicer) has complied
in all material respects with the requirements of the Consolidation Loan
Program, this Agreement, and the Policies in respect of such Note. USA Funds
will thereupon succeed to all the rights of the Lender under such Consolidation
Loan. No claim submitted to USA Funds by the Lender (loan servicer) with respect
to a Consolidation Loan that has been Guaranteed by USA Funds will be paid by
USA Funds unless USA Funds has received from the Lender (or servicer) the
appropriate documentation; and
2. Upon bankruptcy, death, or permanent and total disability, as defined in the
Act, of the Borrower or other circumstances under the Act provides for
guarantors to pay claims to lenders (e.g., closed school or false
certification), USA Funds will pay to the Lender the maximum percentage of the
unpaid balance of principal and interest due on such Consolidation Loan under
the terms of the Act and the Policies (other than any portion of such interest
payable by the U.S. Department of Education under the Act), provided the Lender
(or loan servicer) has complied in all material respects with the requirements
of the Consolidation Loan Program, this Agreement and the Policies.
H. No Required Minimum. Nothing contained in this Agreement will obligate the
Lender to make, certify, cause to certify or acquire any particular
Consolidation Loan or number of Consolidation Loans under the Consolidation Loan
Program or restrict the number or amount of loans made under other programs.
I. Examination. The Lender will permit the U.S. Secretary of Education or USA
Funds or both to examine during normal business hours all Consolidation Loan
records and files, upon reasonable notice and at reasonable intervals, for the
purpose of verifying the accuracy of information provided by the Lender Under
the Act and in order to conduct an audit and compliance review.
III. COMPREHENSIVE GUARANTEE COVERAGE CERTIFICATE
A. Aggregate Guarantee. If the Lender complies with the requirements of the Act,
the Policies, the Agreement, and this Certificate, USA Funds will make its
Guarantee available to the Lender to insure the Lender against loss of principal
and interest on Consolidation Loans made or acquired by the Lender at the
maximum extent permitted by the Act. The aggregate amount of such Guarantee

written request of the Lender, USA Funds may increase the aggregate amount of
such Guarantee.

Loans originated by the Lender under the Consolidation Loan Program is made in
reliance on the
5
representations of the Lender contained in this Certificate and the Agreement.
The continuance of Guarantees issued by USA Funds for Consolidation Loans is
conditioned upon continued compliance by each and every holder of such
Consolidation Loan with applicable laws and regulations, and the Policies. The
delegation of one or more functions to a servicing agency or another party does
not relieve the Lender of its responsibilities in administering Consolidation
Loans.
C. Lender Determination. No Consolidation Loan originated by the Lender will be
covered by USA Funds' Guarantee unless and until the Lender has determined, in
accordance with reasonable and prudent business practice, with respect to each
Eligible Loan being consolidated (i) that each Eligible Loan is a legal, valid,
and binding obligation; (ii) that each Eligible Loan was originated and serviced
in compliance with applicable laws and regulations; and (iii) with respect to
all Eligible Loans made, insured, or guaranteed under the Act, that the
insurance or guarantee on each Eligible Loan is in full force and effect.
D. Reporting. The Lender will at all times be subject to the reporting
requirements identified in the Policies and the Limitation, Suspension, and
Termination procedures set out in the Policies; provided, however, that any such
Limitation, Suspension, or Termination shall not affect the Guarantee of any
Consolidation Loan originated by the Lender prior to the initiation of such
Limitation, Suspension, or Termination.
E. Claim Processing. All claims on Consolidation Loans Guaranteed pursuant to
this Certificate and all related administrative functions to be performed by USA
Funds pursuant to this Certificate, the Agreement, or the Policies shall be
processed or performed by USA Funds or its contractor located in Fishers,
Indiana or at such other office as may be designated by USA Funds.
F. Alternative Terms. The Lender may offer to the Eligible Borrower and
establish such alternative repayment terms on a Consolidation Loan as will
promote the objectives of the Consolidation Loan Program; provided, however,
that such alternative repayment terms are in accordance with the Act, the
Policies, and the Agreement.
G. Expiration of Certificate. This Certificate shall be in effect, subject to
the Act, the Agreement, and the Policies, from the date first above written

will so notify USA Funds.
