FINANCING PROGRAM AGREEMENT

EXHIBIT 10.54

This FINANCING PROGRAM AGREEMENT (as amended, modified, restated or replaced from time to time, this “Agreement”) is entered into as of February 20, 2009 (“Effective Date”) by ITT EDUCATIONAL SERVICES, INC., a Delaware corporation, on behalf of itself and its Affiliates and subsidiaries (“ITT ESI”) and STUDENT CU CONNECT CUSO, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company operating as a credit union service organization (the “CUSO”).

RECITALS

The following recitals are a material part of this Agreement:

Pursuant to this Agreement, the CUSO intends to conduct the Program utilizing the Originating Entity to provide access for Students across the country to non-governmentally guaranteed student loans. Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Originating Entity will originate Loans to Students and the CUSO will purchase the Loans, creating discrete Loan Pools based on dates of disbursement of Loan proceeds. The Originating Entity will fund and disburse the Loans to ITT ESI. The CUSO will sell Participation Interests in the Loans to the Originating Entity and other Participants pursuant to the Subscription Agreements and Participation Agreement. To induce the CUSO to both induce the Originating Entity to originate, fund and disburse the Loans and itself to purchase such Loans, and to induce the Originating Entity and other Participants to participate in the Loans, ITT ESI has agreed to provide a guarantee for the Loans upon and subject to the terms of the Risk Sharing Agreement.

In consideration of the foregoing and the mutual promises and covenants contained herein, the parties agree as follows:

ARTICLE II

THE PROGRAM

2.1 Origination and Sale of Loans.

(a) Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement and subject to the terms and conditions contained herein and therein, (i) the Originating Entity will originate Loans to Borrowers for the purpose of assisting Students with the cost of tuition, fees, books, tools, computers and other expenses associated with their ITT Technical Institute education, (ii) the CUSO will purchase such Loans, and (iii) the Originating Entity will disburse the Loans to ITT ESI.

(b) The CUSO shall ensure that each Borrower is a Student or a co-signer of a Student.

(c) The CUSO shall pay the Purchase Price for each Loan by depositing the Purchase Price (or lesser required amount to the extent there are available funds in the Loan Funding Account) into the Loan Funding Account. The sale and purchase of each Loan shall occur contemporaneously with the disbursement of the Loan proceeds by the Originating Entity to ITT ESI from the Loan Funding Account on the applicable disbursement date. All Loans disbursed in a given Funding Year will constitute a discrete Loan Pool. The parties acknowledge that an individual Loan may provide for additional or a series of disbursements subsequent to the initial funding, in which case any disbursement subsequent to the initial Funding Year will be treated as a new Loan that is included in the Loan Pool for the Funding Year of the subsequent disbursement.

(d) It is the intention of the parties that the purchase and sale of Loans under the Program as provided for in this Agreement and the Purchase Agreement will constitute the purchase and sale of whole loans in accordance with GAAP and not a participation or secured financing.

2.2 Conversion of Open Account Credit into Loans. The parties acknowledge that ITT ESI has heretofore extended open account credit to certain Students in the absence of adequate non-governmentally guaranteed unsecured student loan sources, and may continue to do so. The CUSO shall cause the Originating Entity to originate Loans to Borrowers for the purpose of paying off any open account credit so extended by ITT ESI, so long as those Loans comply with the conditions in Section 2.1(b) of the Purchase Agreement. For this purpose, the CUSO acknowledges that at the time a Loan is originated to some recipients of such open account credit, they may no longer be active Students, so long as they were Students at the time such credit was extended. Prior to the Effective Date, ITT ESI will provide a schedule to the CUSO of the open account credit extended prior to that date, along with the credit criteria utilized by ITT ESI in connection therewith.

2.3 Field of Membership. The CUSO shall ensure that the Originating Entity has the requisite field of membership to originate Loans under the Program.

2.4 Estimated Aggregate Funding Commitment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Program Document, except as otherwise provided in Section 2.9, the aggregate disbursements to ITT ESI, net of all refunds by ITT ESI, on all Loans originated in all of Funding Years 2009, 2010 and 2011 is not required to exceed the Estimated Aggregate Funding Commitment.

2.5 Opinions of Counsel. The CUSO has obtained the following opinions directed to the Participants, as required by Section 712.4(b) of the NCUA Rules, and upon which ITT ESI may rely: (a) the opinion of the CUSO’s counsel, Xxxxxxx & Xxxxx P.C., that the Program constitutes a permissible activity for a credit union service organization and that the CUSO is established in a manner that will limit the potential exposure of its member Credit Unions to no more than the loss of funds invested in, or loaned to, the CUSO, as required by Section 712.4(b) of the NCUA Rules, and (b) an opinion of Delaware counsel with respect to Delaware limited liability company law that the CUSO is established in a manner that will limit the potential exposure of its member Credit Unions to no more than the loss of funds invested in, or loaned to, the CUSO.

2.6 Compliance With Purchase Agreement.

(a) The CUSO shall not be obligated to purchase any Loan which does not comply with the conditions precedent in Section 2.11 of the Purchase Agreement.

(b) If the CUSO acquires any Loan which it subsequently determines was not in compliance with the conditions precedent in Section 2.11 of the Purchase Agreement, absent fraud, willful misconduct, gross negligence or breach of the Purchase Agreement by the Originating Entity, (i) the CUSO’s sole recourse will be to exercise all rights of the Originating Entity under the Origination Agreement, and (ii) the Originating Entity will have no liability to ITT ESI, the CUSO or the Participants for any such noncompliance.

(c) ITT ESI shall be exempt from liability under the Risk Sharing Agreement with respect to any Loan which fails to comply with the conditions precedent in Section 2.11 of the Purchase Agreement, to the extent provided in Section 3.7 of the Risk Sharing Agreement.

2.7 Non-Liability of ITT ESI. ITT ESI shall have sole control over all decisions with regard to the admission, advancement, discipline, suspension, withdrawal, termination and graduation of Students. For the avoidance of doubt, except as otherwise provided in the Risk Sharing Agreement, ITT ESI shall have no liability to the Originating Entity, the CUSO or the Participants with respect to any aspect of the Program in the absence of the fraud, willful misconduct or gross negligence of any ITT ESI employee, including but not limited to (a) any acts, errors or omissions of ITT ESI’s financial aid personnel, (b) any information supplied by any Borrower or other Person in connection with any Loan, or (c) any default by any Borrower under a Loan. If a Loan is originated in whole or in part through the fraud, willful misconduct or gross negligence of any ITT ESI employee, the sole remedy of the CUSO will be under Section 3.11 of the Risk Sharing Agreement, and the sole remedy of the Originating Entity and the Participants will be through the CUSO’s exercise of its rights under Section 3.11 of the Risk Sharing Agreement.

2.8 Exclusivity. During the Term of this Agreement:

(a) ITT ESI shall not enter into a non-governmentally guaranteed student loan financing program which includes any credit enhancement or similar contractual arrangement with any credit union service organization other than the CUSO, except as permitted by Section 2.9(j) or (m).

(b) The CUSO shall not enter into a similar student loan financing program with any proprietary institution of higher education, as defined under 20 USC 1002, other than with ITT ESI (or an Affiliate thereof).

(c) The CUSO shall procure the agreement of each Participant (and ITT ESI shall be named as an express third party beneficiary of all such agreements) that it will not, prior to January 1, 2012, through a credit union service organization, enter into a similar student loan financing program that includes an institution-provided enhancement or guarantee with any proprietary institution of higher education, as defined under 20 USC 1002, other than with ITT ESI (or an Affiliate thereof), but that such limitation shall not apply to (i) a program whereby the institution pays to the Participant the equivalent of an insurance premium and/or a portion of the interest on behalf of the student borrower, (ii) any participation by the Participant in the Credit Union Student Choice Program as long as the Participant does not control the direction or actions of such Credit Union Student Choice Program, or (iii) loans by the Participant to individual student borrowers who satisfy the Participant’s usual and established loan underwriting standards and not under a program as described in this sentence.

2.9 Loan Funding.

(a) The CUSO shall enter into a Subscription Agreement and Participation Agreement with each Participant, pursuant to which each Participant will commit to both make a capital contribution to the CUSO and to purchase a Participation Interest in Loans originated in Funding Years 2009, 2010 and 2011. The CUSO will cause Participants to deposit their Participation Commitments into the Commitment Account. To the extent the amount of Loans purchased by the CUSO in any Loan Pool exceeds the amounts funded by the Participants for such Loan Pool, the excess will be retained by the CUSO as a Retained CUSO Interest.

(b) The CUSO shall pay the Purchase Price for Loans by transferring funds (including funds representing any CUSO Retained Interest) into the Loan Funding Account and will cause the Originating Entity to disburse Loans to ITT ESI in accordance with the Purchase Agreement.

(c) The portion of the Estimated Aggregate Funding Commitment payable in Funding Year 2009 is not required to exceed the Base Funding Year Target. The portion of the Estimated Aggregate Funding Commitment payable in Funding Year 2010 is not required to exceed the 2010 Funding Year Target. The portion of the Estimated Aggregate Funding Commitment payable in Funding Year 2011 is not required to exceed the 2011 Funding Year Target. The Purchase Price for any Loans funded by advances under a Credit Facility provided by ITT ESI shall not be subject to the foregoing limitations.

(d) Not later than twelve (12) Business Days prior to the First Disbursement Date of each Funding Period, ITT ESI will provide the CUSO with an estimate of the aggregate amount to be disbursed on all Loans during such Funding Period.

(e) Not later than three (3) Business Days prior to each disbursement date in each Funding Period, the CUSO shall cause the Originating Entity to provide the CUSO with the actual volume of Loans to be funded on that disbursement date. The CUSO shall deposit the Purchase Price for such Loans into the Loan Funding Account not later than one (1) Business Day prior to such disbursement date; provided, however, that (i) in no event will the CUSO be required to purchase Loans in any Funding Period in an amount greater than twenty-five percent (25%) of the maximum portion of the Estimated Aggregate Funding Commitment for the applicable Funding Year (plus any additional amounts not deposited in previous Funding Periods due to the estimated amounts being less than twenty-five percent (25%) of the maximum portion of the Estimated Aggregate Funding Commitment for the applicable Funding Year), and (ii) the CUSO may deposit more than such twenty-five percent (25%) into the Loan Funding Account in any Funding Period as provided in Section 2.9(f). The CUSO shall cause the Originating Entity to disburse Loans to ITT ESI from the Loan Funding Account on each disbursement date during each Funding Period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if ITT ESI fails to comply with its collateralization requirement under the Risk Sharing Agreement during any Funding Period, the Originating Entity’s obligation to originate Loans and the CUSO’s obligation to purchase Loans shall be suspended until ITT ESI provides the required Collateral.

(f) If the estimated demand for Loans during any Funding Period exceeds twenty-five percent (25%) of the maximum portion of the Estimated Aggregate Funding Commitment for the applicable Funding Year, not later than five (5) Business Days prior to the First Disbursement Date of such Funding Period, the CUSO shall do one of the following: (i) notify ITT ESI that the entire Loan demand for that Funding Period will be purchased by the CUSO, (ii) notify ITT ESI that an amount greater than twenty-five percent (25%) of the maximum portion of the Estimated Aggregate Funding Commitment for the applicable Funding Year but less than the entire Loan demand will be purchased by the CUSO, or (iii) notify ITT ESI that only the portion of the Estimated Aggregate Funding Commitment for that Funding Period will be purchased by the CUSO. Any amount referred to in clause (i), (ii) or (iii) above shall exclude the amount of any refunds or previously unused amounts in the Commitment Account, which will be dealt with in accordance with Section 2.9(k). If the CUSO fails to provide any such notice on a timely basis, it shall be deemed to have made the election described in clause (iii) above. The portion of the Purchase Price for any Loans financed under any Credit Facility provided by ITT ESI shall not be included in the amount referred to in clause (ii) or (iii) above.

(g) The CUSO may finance the purchase of Loans in any manner it deems advisable, including but not limited to (i) selling Participation Interests in such Loans to Participants, (ii) selling Participation Interests in such Loans to additional credit unions, (iii) selling Participation Interests in such Loans to other investors, to the extent permitted under the Federal Credit Union Act and NCUA Rules, (iv) borrowing under a Credit Facility with ITT ESI or a third party Credit Lender, (v) selling additional classes of Membership Interest, whether or not coupled with a Participation Interest, and/or (vi) any other financing method, subject (in the event of any transaction referred to in clauses (i) through (iii) or (v) above) to the rights of existing Participants under the Participation Agreement and any applicable Participants’ right of first refusal provided in the Subscription Agreements. The CUSO shall not enter into any financing transaction with a third party which adversely affects the ability of the CUSO or the Participants to perform their obligations under the Program Documents.

(h) ITT ESI shall have the right (but not the obligation) to finance the purchase of Loans and the CUSO’s operating expenses by making a discretionary revolving Credit Facility available to the CUSO in accordance with mutually acceptable Credit Facility Documents. Any such Credit Facility may be secured by a pledge of the collateral described in the Credit Facility Documents, but in no event will the CUSO pledge any of the Participation Interests in the Loans. If ITT ESI elects to provide such Credit Facility to the CUSO, the CUSO shall use its commercially reasonable best efforts to refinance such Credit Facility with other lender(s) at such time as such financing becomes available to the CUSO on commercially reasonable terms. Any Loan refunds received by the CUSO shall be dealt with in accordance with Section 2.9(k).

(i) Subject to (i) the rights of existing Participants under the Participation Agreement, and (ii) any Participants’ right of first refusal in the Subscription Agreements, the CUSO shall be free at all times to deal in Loans as it sees fit, including without limitation, securitizing Loans and selling whole Loans to ITT ESI or (to the extent permitted under the terms of any Credit Facility) any other Person. From time to time, the CUSO may also sell Participation Interests corresponding to all or a portion of the Retained CUSO Interest to the extent permitted by the Participation Agreement, with the proceeds to the CUSO from any such transaction used to pay down any Credit Facility provided by ITT ESI. No such transaction shall result in, or be deemed to constitute, an assignment of the CUSO’s rights or obligations under the Risk Sharing Agreement without ITT ESI’s written consent.

(j) If for any Funding Period, Funding Year or the Program, the sum of (i) the Participation Commitments of the Participants for such Funding Period, Funding Year or the Program, plus (ii) any advances ITT ESI or another Credit Lender explicitly commits to make under any Credit Facility, plus (iii) other committed funds available to the CUSO, will not be sufficient to allow the CUSO to purchase the estimated demand for Loans during such Funding Period, Funding Year or the Program, then ITT ESI shall be relieved from its obligations under Section 2.8(a) during the applicable Funding Period, Funding Year or the Program, to the extent of the excess of such estimated Loan demand over the sum of (i), (ii) and (iii) above. ITT ESI’s remedy in this Section 2.9(j) shall not be affected by any election by ITT ESI not to provide or advance funds under any Credit Facility.

(k) Any amounts in the Commitment Account not utilized in a Funding Period or Funding Year will be carried forward to the following Funding Period or Funding Year and be available for disbursements on Loans occurring in such subsequent Funding Period or Funding Year; provided, however, that no such carry-forward shall reduce the amount of the Estimated Aggregate Funding Commitment for any Funding Period or Funding Year. If any Obligations with respect to Student Loan Purchase Advances (as such terms are defined in the Credit Facility Documents) are outstanding under the Credit Facility Documents, then all amounts paid to the CUSO as Loan refunds, if any, without regard to the Loan Pool related to any such refunded Loan, will be allocated first to the CUSO (and not Monthly Collections) and applied by ITT ESI in payment of such outstanding Obligations. Any such refunded amounts not so allocated to the CUSO will be deposited in the Commitment Account to be used by the CUSO to purchase Loans, subject to Section 7(c) of the Participation Agreement.

(l) The CUSO’s Estimated Aggregate Funding Commitment for any Renewal Term shall equal the sum of the Estimated Aggregate Funding Commitment amounts in effect during the four (4) Funding Periods immediately preceding the Renewal Term, unless ITT ESI and the CUSO have mutually agreed on a new Estimated Aggregate Funding Commitment for such Renewal Term. ITT ESI and the CUSO may, by mutual written agreement, revise the Estimated Aggregate Funding Commitment for any Renewal Term based on the estimated Loan volume and the amount of Participation Commitments obtained by the CUSO for such Renewal Term. Either party may also request (subject to the other party’s approval) a new Estimated Aggregate Funding Commitment for a Renewal Term in accordance with Section 5.3(b)(ii). The procedures described in Sections 2.9(c) – (f) for Funding Year 2011 shall be in effect during any Renewal Term unless otherwise agreed by ITT ESI and the CUSO.

(m) The CUSO shall cause the Participants to fund all Participation Commitments called for under their Subscription Agreements in accordance with their terms and in such manner and on such dates as the CUSO deems necessary to permit the CUSO to comply with the Loan funding provisions of this Section 2.9. If a Participant fails to fully fund its Participation Commitment on a timely basis and does not cure such failure within the time period provided in its Subscription Agreement, the CUSO shall use its commercially reasonable best efforts to obtain such funding from other Participants and/or other sources as described in Section 2.9(g). If the CUSO fails to obtain such funds within sixty (60) days after the due date therefor, then (i) if the CUSO has not fully enforced its rights against any Participant under the Participant’s respective Subscription Agreement and the Participation Agreement, ITT ESI may enforce all of the CUSO’s rights against such Participant under the Participant’s respective Subscription Agreement and the Participation Agreement, and (ii) ITT ESI shall be relieved of its obligations under Section 2.8(a) to the extent of such failure, notwithstanding any election by ITT ESI not to provide or advance funds under any Credit Facility. Unless otherwise agreed by ITT ESI in its sole discretion, no termination by a Participant of its respective Subscription Agreement because of any change in existing law or regulation as provided therein shall relieve the CUSO from its Loan purchase and funding obligations under this Agreement.

(n) The amount to be disbursed to ITT ESI in connection with any Loan shall be the principal amount of such Loan, which shall not include origination fees and expenses.

(o) ITT ESI will obtain account agreements from Borrowers who are not already members of the Originating Entity and will pay the Originating Entity’s per Borrower membership fee for each new member to the Originating Entity at the time of each Loan disbursement. Such membership fee will be non-refundable if a Loan is subsequently cancelled or refunded, but will be refunded if erroneously paid by ITT ESI.

2.10 Loan Information. At or prior to the time any Loan is purchased by the CUSO, the CUSO shall obtain from the Originating Entity the following information with respect to such Loan:

(a) The name, address, e-mail address, telephone number and social security number of each Borrower under such Loan.

(b) The original principal amount and interest rate on and the terms of such Loan.

(d) A copy of the Borrower’s Loan File, including a set of fully executed Loan Documents.

(e) Confirmation that a Borrower who is a Student is a member of the Originating Entity.

(f) Confirmation that the Loan complies with the Loan Criteria.

(g) Such further instruments and information as ITT ESI or the CUSO may reasonably request.

After any Loan is purchased by the CUSO, the CUSO shall be responsible for obtaining, and shall, upon request, provide ITT ESI with copies of, all of the above referenced information about each such Loan.

2.11 Origination and Servicing Arrangements.

(a) The Originating Entity will be the named lender on the Loan Documents.

(b) Each Loan will be purchased under the Purchase Agreement on a servicing-released basis. The CUSO will cause the Originating Entity to transfer to the CUSO with each Loan purchased the right to service such Loan. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the Servicing Agreement or the Risk Sharing Agreement, all decisions with respect to the administration, collection, enforcement, servicing and charge off of any Loan shall be made by the CUSO in accordance with the Collection and Charge Off Standards and in consultation with and under the direction of ITT ESI.

(c) The CUSO will cause the origination and documentation of Loans to be serviced by the Origination Vendor pursuant to the Origination Agreement. The Origination Vendor and the terms of the Origination Agreement shall be subject to the approval of ITT ESI. The CUSO shall regularly consult with ITT ESI regarding the selection, supervision, financial condition and performance of the Origination Vendor. ITT ESI shall have the right at any time to direct the origination of Loans and the supervision and performance of the Origination Vendor. Errors and omissions of the Origination Vendor shall not affect the obligations of either party under this Agreement.

(d) The CUSO, through the Servicer, will service the Loans in accordance with the terms of the Servicing Agreement and the Collection and Charge Off Standards. Each Servicer and the terms of its respective Servicing Agreement shall be subject to the approval of ITT ESI. The CUSO shall regularly consult with ITT ESI regarding the selection, supervision, financial condition and performance of the Servicer. ITT ESI shall have the right at any time to direct the servicing and collection of Loans and the supervision and performance of the Servicer. Errors or omissions of the Servicer shall not affect the obligations of either party under this Agreement.

(e) The CUSO shall cause the Originating Entity to assign to the CUSO all rights of the Originating Entity under the Origination Agreement, which rights may be exercised by the CUSO upon any Originating Entity Default, any uncured default by the Origination Vendor under the Origination Agreement, or any breach of the representations and warranties in this Agreement or the Purchase Agreement, as fully as if the CUSO were an original party thereto.

(f) Each Origination Agreement and Servicing Agreement shall name ITT ESI as an express third-party beneficiary of such agreement, with full power and authority to enforce the same as if it were an original party thereto, and shall further provide that such agreement may not be amended, modified, terminated or assigned without ITT ESI’s prior express written consent.

(g) Fees and expenses in connection with the origination and servicing of each Loan shall be paid by the CUSO in accordance with the applicable Origination Agreement and Servicing Agreement.

(h) ITT ESI shall have the right to require the CUSO to replace any Origination Vendor or Servicer with a substitute Origination Vendor or Servicer acceptable to ITT ESI upon not less than ninety (90) days notice, so long as no such replacement would cause the CUSO to violate the Origination Agreement or Servicing Agreement.

2.12 Retained Originator Interest; Marketing of Member Services.

(a) The CUSO shall ensure that the Originating Entity acquires and maintains not less than a ten percent (10%) Retained Originator Interest in each Loan in each Loan Pool. For purposes of computing such percentage, the Retained CUSO Interest shall be taken into account.

(b) Nothing in this Agreement or the Participation Agreement shall prohibit the Originating Entity or any Participant from marketing its credit union membership services to Students, faculty or staff of ITT ESI’s ITT Technical Institutes in compliance with NCUA Rules.

2.13 Originating Entity Default. Upon any Originating Entity Default or any other Event of Default by the Originating Entity under the Purchase Agreement, then:

(b) If ITT ESI extends open account credit to Students as a result of any Originating Entity Default or Event of Default, then the CUSO shall cause any Substitute Originating Entity to convert such credit into Loans under the Program that comply with Section 2.1(b) of the Purchase Agreement (including Loans to Persons who are no longer Students but who were Students at the time such open account credit was extended by ITT ESI) and to sell such Loans to the CUSO in accordance with the Substitute Purchase Agreement, with the proceeds of such sales used to pay off such credit.

2.14 Collateral. The CUSO acknowledges and agrees that none of the Collateral pledged by ITT ESI under the Security Agreement shall secure any of ITT ESI’s obligations under this Agreement.

2.15 Program Documents. ITT ESI is an express third-party beneficiary of each Program Document, with full right, power and authority to enforce the same as if it were an original party thereto. No Program Document or any term or provision thereof shall be amended, modified, terminated or waived without the express written consent of ITT ESI. Each Program Document shall expressly provide for the third-party beneficiary rights of ITT ESI described in this Section 2.15, but no failure of any such Program Document to provide for such third-party beneficiary rights shall affect the enforceability of this Section 2.15.

2.16 Representations and Warranties. In addition to and not in limitation of the representations and warranties of the Originating Entity in the Purchase Agreement, each of the following representations and warranties with respect to each Loan shall be accurate in all material respects on the date the Loan is originated and the date the Loan is purchased by the CUSO.

(a) The Loan, the Loan Documents and the Borrower comply with the Loan Criteria.

(b) The CUSO has, and at all times will have, full right, power and authority to acquire, hold and enforce such Loan.

(c) The Borrower has not committed any default or event of default under any other Loan in a Loan Pool under the Program, nor does any event or condition exist which, with the giving of notice or the passage of time, or both, would constitute such a default or event of default.

(d) The Loan Documents executed by or on behalf of the Borrower with respect to such Loan are the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Borrower, enforceable in accordance with their terms, except as such enforcement may be limited by (i) fraudulent transfer, bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally (except to the extent the Loans are non-dischargeable under the Bankruptcy Code), and (ii) general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforcement is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law), and except that certain provisions in such Loan Documents may be further limited or rendered unenforceable by applicable law, but (subject to the limitations set forth in the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii)) such limitations and/or unenforceability will not render such Loan Documents invalid as a whole or substantially interfere with the CUSO’s realization of the principal benefits provided thereby. Except as set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, there was no valid offset, defense, counterclaim or right of rescission available to the Borrower with respect to any of the Loan Documents, including any such valid offset, defense, counterclaim or right based on fraud, predatory lending or lender liability in connection with the origination of such Loan, that would deny the principal benefits intended to be provided by the Loan Documents for such Loan.

(e) The Borrower under such Loan is not a debtor in any state or federal bankruptcy, insolvency or similar proceeding.

(f) The Loan, including the terms thereof, and the Loan Documents comply with all applicable federal and state laws and regulations and do not satisfy any of the conditions for predatory lending or lender liability under applicable law.

(h) Such Loan complies with applicable NCUA Rules.

(i) There exists no default, breach, violation or event of acceleration under the Loan Documents for such Loan and no event has occurred which, with the passing of time or the giving of notice and the expiration of any grace or cure period, would constitute such a default or breach.

(j) Such Loan is a whole loan and not a participation interest in a Loan.

(k) The Loan Documents contain the standard provisions providing for recourse against the Borrower for damages sustained in connection with the Borrower’s fraud or material misrepresentation.

(l) There is no collateral securing such Loan.

(m) Except as provided in the Origination Agreement and the Servicing Agreement, no Person has been granted or conveyed the right to service such Loan or receive any consideration in connection therewith.

(n) The transfer of the Loan to the CUSO does not affect the accuracy of any of the representations or warranties contained herein or in the Purchase Agreement.

(o) The transfer of the Loan to the CUSO complied with all applicable laws, and all required actions and disclosures in connection with such transfer have been taken and made.

(p) The Loan Documents contain required disclosures to permit the CUSO to provide Loan information to ITT ESI and its service providers.

(q) Such Loan is a “qualified education loan” within the meaning of 26 USC 221(d)(1).

(r) The Originating Entity has full right, power and authority to originate and sell such Loan under its charter and applicable laws and regulations, the Originating Entity is authorized by its Board of Directors to originate and sell Loans pursuant to the Program Documents, and the origination and sale of such Loan have been duly approved by the Originating Entity’s officers and directors and do not conflict with any note, mortgage or other agreement to which the Originating Entity is a party or by which the Originating Entity or its assets may be bound.

(s) Such Loan is eligible for federal preemption of any state law that purports to limit or affect any of the matters described in NCUA Rule 701.21(b).

As the sole remedy for any breach of the representations and warranties in this Section 2.16 with respect to any Loan (i) ITT ESI shall have no liability under the Risk Sharing Agreement or Security Agreement with respect to such Loan (unless any such breach (A) is due to the fraud, willful misconduct or gross negligence of any ITT ESI employee, or (B) is of Section 2.16(a) and is the direct result of either an error by the Origination Vendor or the failure of the Origination Vendor to comply with any instructions of the Originating Entity, in each case in connection with the origination of such Loan) and (ii) the CUSO shall have no obligation to purchase such Loan. Without limiting the foregoing, in the event of any breach of the representations and warranties in Section 2.16(b), the CUSO shall use its commercially reasonable best efforts to obtain the required right, power and authority as quickly as possible and will purchase any Loan(s) so affected promptly after obtaining the same.
