SECTION 6. PURCHASE OF TRUST STUDENT LOANS; REIMBURSEMENT
Each party to these Master Terms shall give notice to the other such parties and to the Servicer, the Administrator and SLMA promptly, in writing, upon the discovery of any breach of Seller’s representations and warranties made pursuant to Sections 5(A) and (B) hereof which has a material adverse effect on the interest of the Purchaser in any Trust Student Loan. 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, Seller 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 applicable 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 Seller shall purchase such Trust Student Loan not later than the sixtieth day following the end of such 360-day period. The Seller shall also remit as provided in Section 2.6 of the Administration Agreement on the date of purchase of any Trust Student Loan pursuant to this Section 6 an amount equal to all non-guaranteed interest amounts and forfeited Interest Subsidy Payments and Special Allowance Payments with respect to such Trust Student Loan. In consideration of the purchase of any such Trust Student Loan pursuant to this Section 6, the Seller 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 the Seller 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 Purchaser to repay such interest to a Guarantor), or the loss (including any obligation of the Purchaser to repay the Department) of Interest Subsidy Payments and Special Allowance Payments, with respect to any Trust Student Loan affected by such breach, then the Seller shall reimburse the Purchaser 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 the Seller 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. At the time such payment is made, the Seller shall not be required to reimburse the Purchaser for interest that is then capitalized, however, such amounts shall be
11
reimbursed if the borrower subsequently defaults and such capitalized interest is not paid by the Guarantor.
Anything in this Section 6 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 Seller or the Servicer, exceeds 1% of the Pool Balance, the Seller or the Servicer shall purchase, within 30 days of a written request of the Eligible Lender Trustee or the Indenture Trustee, such affected Trust Student Loans in an aggregate principal amount such that after such purchase the aggregate 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 Seller or the Servicer pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be based on the date of claim rejection (or the date of notice referred to in the first sentence of this Section 6), with Trust Student Loans with the earliest such date to be purchased first.
In lieu of repurchasing Trust Student Loans pursuant to this Section 6, the Seller 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),
(2) program type (i.e., Unsubsidized or Subsidized Consolidation (pre-1993 vs. post-1993)),
(3) school type,
(4) total return,
(5) principal balance, and
(6) 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 choosing Eligible Loans to be substituted pursuant to this Section 6, the Seller shall make a reasonable determination that the Eligible Loans to be substituted will not have a material adverse effect on the Noteholders.
In the event that Seller elects to substitute Eligible Loans pursuant to this Section 6, the Seller 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. The Seller 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. The sole remedy of the Purchaser, the Eligible Lender Trustee and the Noteholders with respect to a breach by the Seller pursuant to Section 5(A) and (B) hereof shall be to require the Seller to purchase Trust Student Loans, to reimburse the Purchaser as
12
provided above or to substitute Student Loans pursuant to this Section. 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 6.
SECTION 7. OBLIGATION TO REMIT SUBSEQUENT PAYMENTS AND FORWARD COMMUNICATIONS

consolidation, merger or succession and such agreement of assumption comply with this Section and that all conditions precedent, if any, provided for in these Master Sale Terms relating to such transaction have been complied with, and that the Rating Agency Condition shall have been satisfied with respect to such transaction, (iv) if the Seller is not the surviving entity, such transaction will not result in a material adverse Federal or state tax consequence to the Purchaser or the Noteholders and (v) if the Seller is not the surviving entity, the Seller shall have delivered to the Eligible Lender Trustee an Opinion of Counsel either (A) stating that, in the opinion of such counsel, all financing statements and continuation statements and amendments thereto have been executed and filed that are necessary fully to preserve and protect the interest of the Purchaser and the Eligible Lender Trustee, respectively, in the Loans and reciting the details of such filings, or (B) stating that, in the opinion of such counsel, no such action shall be necessary to preserve and protect such interests.
SECTION 11. LIMITATION ON LIABILITY OF SELLER AND OTHERS
The Seller and any director or officer or employee or agent thereof may rely in good faith on the advice of counsel or on any document of any kind, prima facie properly executed and submitted by any Person respecting any matters arising hereunder (provided that such reliance shall not limit in any way the Seller’s obligations under Section 5 herein). The Seller shall not be under any obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend any legal action that shall not be incidental to its obligations under these Master Sale Terms or any Sale Agreement, and that in its opinion may involve it in any expense or liability. Except as provided herein, the repurchase (or substitution) and reimbursement obligations of Seller will constitute the sole remedy available to Purchaser for uncured breaches; provided, however, that the information with respect to the Loans listed on the Xxxx of Sale may be adjusted in the ordinary course of business subsequent to the date of the Xxxx of Sale and to the extent that the aggregate Principal Balance listed on the Xxxx of Sale is less than the aggregate Principal Balance stated on the Xxxx of Sale, Seller shall remit such amount to the Eligible Lender Trustee for the benefit of the Purchaser. Such reconciliation payment shall be made from time to time but no less frequently than semi-annually.
SECTION 12. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY OF ELIGIBLE LENDER TRUSTEE
Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, these Master Sale Terms and any Sale Agreement have been signed by Chase Manhattan Bank USA, National Association, not in its individual capacity but solely in its capacity as Eligible Lender Trustee for the Purchaser and the Interim Eligible Lender Trustee for the Seller, as the case may be, and in no event shall Chase Manhattan Bank USA, National Association in its individual capacity, have any liability for the representations, warranties, covenants, agreements or other obligations of the Eligible Lender Trustee, the Interim Eligible Lender Trustee, the Purchaser or of the Seller, respectively, under these Master Sale Terms or any Sale Agreement or in any of the certificates, notices or agreements delivered pursuant hereto, as to all of which recourse shall be had solely to the assets of the Purchaser or the Seller, as the case may be.
SECTION 13. EXPENSES
Except as otherwise provided herein, each party to these Master Sale Terms or any Sale Agreement shall pay its own expense incurred in connection with the preparation, execution and
15
delivery of these Master Sale Terms or any Sale Agreement and the transactions contemplated herein or therein.
SECTION 14. SURVIVAL OF COVENANTS/SUPERSESSION
All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made herein and in or pursuant to any Sale Agreements executed pursuant to these Master Sale Terms shall survive the consummation of the purchase of the Loans provided for in each Sale Agreement. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made or furnished pursuant hereto by or for the benefit of Seller shall bind and inure to the benefit of any successors or assigns of Purchaser and shall survive with respect to each Loan. Each Sale Agreement supersedes all previous agreements and understandings between Purchaser and Seller with respect to the subject matter thereof. A Sale Agreement may be changed, modified or discharged, and any rights or obligations hereunder may be waived, only by a written instrument signed by a duly authorized officer of the party against whom enforcement of any such waiver, change, modification or discharge is sought. The waiver by Purchaser of any covenant, agreement, representation or warranty required to be made or furnished by Seller or the waiver by Purchaser of any provision herein contained or contained in any Sale Agreement shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any breach of any other covenant, agreement, representation, warranty or provision herein contained or contained in any Sale Agreement, nor shall any waiver or any custom or practice which may evolve between the parties in the administration of the terms hereof or of any Sale Agreement, be construed to lessen the right of Purchaser to insist upon the performance by Seller in strict accordance with said terms.
SECTION 15. COMMUNICATION AND NOTICE REQUIREMENTS
All communications, notices and approvals provided for hereunder shall be in writing and mailed or delivered to Seller or Purchaser, as the case may be, addressed as set forth in the Sale Agreement or at such other address as either party may hereafter designate by notice to the other party. Notice given in any such communication, mailed to Seller or Purchaser by appropriately addressed registered mail, shall be deemed to have been given on the day following the date of such mailing.
SECTION 16. FORM OF INSTRUMENTS
All instruments and documents delivered in connection with these Master Sale Terms and any Sale Agreement, and all proceedings to be taken in connection with these Master Sale Terms and any Sale Agreement and the transactions contemplated herein and therein, shall be in a form as set forth in the attachments hereto, and Purchaser shall have received copies of such documents as it or its counsel shall reasonably request in connection therewith. Any instrument or document which is substantially in the same form as an Attachment hereto or a recital herein will be deemed to be satisfactory as to form.
SECTION 17. AMENDMENT
These Master Sale Terms and any Sale Agreement may be amended by the parties thereto without the consent of the related Noteholders for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of such Master Sale Terms and Sale
16
Agreements or of modifying in any manner the rights of such Noteholders; provided that such action will not, in the opinion of counsel satisfactory to the related Indenture Trustee, materially and adversely affect the interest of any such Noteholder.
In addition, these Master Sale Terms and any Sale Agreement may also be amended from time to time by the Seller, the Interim Eligible Lender Trustee, the Eligible Lender Trustee and the Purchaser, with the consent of the Noteholders of Notes evidencing a majority of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes, for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of these Master Sale Terms or any Sale Agreement or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Noteholders; provided, however, that no such amendment shall (a) increase or reduce in any manner the amount of, or accelerate or delay the time of, collections of payments with respect to Loans or distributions that shall be required to be made for the benefit of the Noteholders or (b) reduce the aforesaid percentage of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes, the Noteholders of which are required to consent to any such amendment, without the consent of all outstanding Noteholders.
Promptly after the execution of any such amendment or consent (or, in the case of the Rating Agencies, five Business Days prior thereto), the Eligible Lender Trustee shall furnish written notification of the substance of such amendment or consent to the Indenture Trustee, and each of the Rating Agencies.
It shall not be necessary for the consent of Noteholders pursuant to this Section to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment or consent, but it shall be sufficient if such consent shall approve the substance thereof.
Prior to the execution of any amendment to these Master Sale Terms, the Eligible Lender Trustee shall be entitled to receive and rely upon an Opinion of Counsel stating that execution of such amendment is authorized or permitted by this Sale Agreement and the Opinion of Counsel referred to in Section 7.1(i)(i) of the Administration Agreement. The Eligible Lender Trustee may, but shall not be obligated to, enter into any such amendment which affects the Eligible Lender Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under these Master Terms or otherwise.
SECTION 18. NONPETITION COVENANTS
