6.                                      ExportSS Agreement.

The ExportSS Agreement is hereby amended as of July 1, 2004 as follows:

A.                                   The Commitment Period under the ExportSS® Agreement, including without limitation the Amendment of January 1, 2002 relating to MBA LOAN Private Loans and LAWLOAN Private Loans (but subject to the modifications set forth in Section 6 hereof), is hereby extended to August 31, 2008.  ECFC will have the right to designate the name of the purchaser of all loans sold under the ExportSS Agreement, which shall be a subsidiary of SLM Corporation or an affiliate of one of the Sallie Mae Parties.   Pursuant to Section 22 of the ExportSS Agreement, Bank One intends to assign the ExportSS Agreement to Banc One Education Finance Corp., and Banc One Education Finance Corp. intends to assume such obligations.   If such assignment occurs, Bank One shall also assign, and Banc One Education Finance Corp. shall assume, the loan sale obligations of Bank One under the ExportSS Agreement, as modified by this Settlement Agreement, with respect to loans made by Banc One Education Finance Corp.  Upon the effective date of such assignment, the rights and obligations of Bank One under the ExportSS Agreement shall only apply to Banc One Education Finance Corp. and not to Bank One.  Nothing in this Section 6.A shall be deemed a release of any obligations of Bank One under the ExportSS Agreement with respect to any Education Loans made by Bank One (i) prior to the effective date of such assignment or (ii) after the effective date

7

of such assignment (unless, with respect to this clause (ii) only, Bank One merges into JPMorgan Chase Bank, in which event this clause 6.A(ii) shall not apply with respect to Education Loans made after the effective date of such merger).  Bank One and JPMorgan further agree that through the period ending August 31, 2008 they will not use the Bank One or Banc One names in connection with making or marketing Education Loans other than through Bank One, Banc One Education Finance Corp., or any other Bank One affiliate that was a Bank One affiliate prior to July 1, 2004 (and if they do make or market Education Loans through such Bank One affiliate, they will cause such Bank One affiliate to assume the loan sale obligations of Bank One under the ExportSS Agreement, as modified by this Settlement Agreement, with respect to loans made by such Bank One affiliate).

B.                                     Notwithstanding anything in the ExportSS Agreement to the contrary, Loans made by Bank One under the Act that are serviced by Great Lakes Education Loan Services, Inc. or its predecessors, affiliates, or successors (“GLELSI”) that are guaranteed for the 2004-2005 Academic Year will continue to be sold under the terms of the ExportSS Agreement, as amended by this Section 6 herein.  Loans made by Bank One under the Act that are serviced by GLELSI that are guaranteed for the 2005-2006 and subsequent Academic Years during the Commitment Period under the ExportSS Agreement that are (1) Serial Loans or (2) made to borrowers in connection with attendance at the schools listed on Schedule 3 hereof will remain subject to sale under the terms set forth in the ExportSS Agreement as amended by this Section 6 hereof. For purposes of clarity, effective as of the date hereof, the schools listed on Schedule 3 hereto shall not be deemed to be Custom Deal Loan schools (but nothing in this Section 6.B shall be interpreted as preventing such schools from becoming Custom Deal Loan schools in the future).  The obligations set forth in Section 6.B(2) hereof shall not be applicable to any school listed on Schedule 3 hereof if an EOG Related Person provides Custom Deal Loans (as defined in Section 6 herein) to such school and Bank One is not on the preferred lender list at such school originating such Custom Deal Loans at such school, but this exclusion shall only apply with respect to loans made after the date Bank One is removed from such preferred lender list.

C.                                   Except as otherwise provided in Section 6.B, Section 7.E(2), and Section 7.E(3) below, the obligations under Section 9 (Future Required Sales) of the ExportSS Agreement and Section 10 – (Sales to Third Parties) of the ExportSS Agreement do not include: (1) any Loans made by Bank One under the Act or (2) any non-FFELP loans made by Bank One that are not a Private Loan as defined in the ExportSS Agreement, which, with respect to (1) and/or (2) above, are processed by or through Sallie Mae’s OpenNet File Management System or its successor file management system and that are not otherwise also originated, processed and/or serviced by SLM Corporation, Sallie Mae, or any of their subsidiaries or affiliates on their respective originations and/or servicing platforms.

D.                                    Notwithstanding the definition of Purchase Price under the ExportSS Agreement, the Purchase Price under the ExportSS Agreement for the Commitment Period, as amended by this Settlement Agreement, and for all Loans and Serial Loans required to be sold after the termination or expiration of the Commitment Period, is as follows:

(1)          for Eligible FFELP Loans (except for Custom Deal Loans described below), (a) 100.00% of the aggregate Principal Balance of such Eligible FFELP

8

Loans; plus (b) 100.00% of the accrued interest that is payable by the Borrowers; plus (c) solely for Loans that are sold within the time frames set forth in Section 9 (Future Required Sales), a premium equal to [**]% of the aggregate Principal Balance of such Loans; and

(2)          for Custom Deal Loans that are FFELP Loans (other than Custom Deal Loans made in connection with attendance at the schools listed in Schedule 1 hereto), (a) 100.00% of the aggregate Principal Balance of such Loans; plus (b) 100.00% of the accrued interest that is payable by the Borrowers; plus (c) solely for Loans that are sold within the time frames set forth in Section 9 (Future Required Sales), a premium equal to [**]% of the aggregate Principal Balance of such Loans; and

(3)          for Custom Deal Loans that are FFELP Loans made in connection with attendance at schools listed in Schedule 1 hereto, (a) 100.00% of the aggregate Principal Balance of such Loans; plus (b) 100.00% of the accrued interest that is payable by the Borrowers; plus (c) solely for Loans that are sold within the time frames set forth in Section 9 (Future Required Sales), a premium equal to [**]% of the aggregate Principal Balance of such Loans.  This revised pricing will apply with respect to all such Loans made to Borrowers at the schools listed in Schedule 1 hereto, and to Loans made to Borrowers at other Indiana University campuses, if such Borrowers receive substantially identical benefits as described in the letter dated January 28, 2004, to Jennifer Foutty of Indiana University, a copy of which is attached hereto as Schedule 7 (the “Indiana Custom Deal”), including Serial Loans originated after the expiration of such Indiana Custom Deal if such Serial Loans are provided substantially identical benefits as the benefits that were provided in the Indiana Custom Deal.  Sallie Mae, Inc. agrees to provide prompt written notice to Bank One detailing any change(s) to the benefits provided in the Indiana Custom Deal; and

(4)          for FFELP Loans that have passed the required sales dates set forth in Section 9 (Future Required Sales), and the reason for such fact is not due to the fault of an EOG Related Person, the applicable EOG Related Person may, if it so chooses, purchase any such Loans that are not more than 60 days delinquent in the payment of principal and interest as of the date of sale under the terms of the ExportSS Agreement, at the applicable Purchase Price set forth in the ExportSS Agreement, as amended in Section 6 hereof; and

(5)          for FFELP Loans being purchased that were made to finance attendance at an educational institution for which the Institutional Default Rate equals or exceeds 25%, (a) 100.00% of the aggregate Principal Balance of such Loans; plus (b) 100.00% of the accrued interest that is payable by the Borrowers, minus a servicing charge of $8.00 for each Account containing such a Loan.

9

E.                                      Custom Deal Loans will include Loans made under the Act that are (i) MBALoans, LAWLOANS, and MEDLOANS, (ii)  loans made in connection with attendance at the schools listed in Schedule 1 hereto (subject to the last two sentences of Section 6.D(3) above), and (iii) loans made in connection with attendance at such other schools with respect to which Sallie Mae has agreed to provide custom loan terms, which shall mean changes to its standard Signature Education Loan, MBALoan private loan, LAWLOANS private loan, or MEDLOANS private loan interest rates, terms, or credit criteria, changes to standard FFELP borrower benefits, and/or Opportunity Loans, and such custom loan terms (as described in Section 6.E(iii) immediately above) are set forth in a letter of understanding executed by an EOG Related Person and such applicable schools (“Custom Deal”), provided that Bank One and such EOG Related Person have agreed to Bank One’s participation in the Custom Deal at such school (collectively, “Custom Deal Loans”), it being understood that neither party is under any obligation to agree to such participation in a Custom Deal at any such school.

F.                                      Bank One agrees that, notwithstanding any other provision of this Settlement Agreement, it shall, during the term of the ExportSS Agreement, only offer to make Signature Loans, MBA LOAN Private Loans, LAWLOAN Private Loans and/or Opportunity Loans at a particular school during a given Academic Year if it also agrees to sell all non-Serial FFELP loans it makes at such particular school during the same Academic Year to ECFC or its designee on the sales timing set forth in Section 9 (Future Required Sales) of the ExportSS Agreement and for the Purchase Price as defined in Section 6.D hereof.  The sale of Serial FFELP Loans that Bank One makes at such particular school will be governed by the ExportSS Agreement, as amended by this Settlement Agreement.  Additionally, the Parties agree that all FFELP Loans that are MBALoans or LAWLOANS will be originated, serviced, and purchased on the terms set forth in the ExportSS Agreement, as amended by this Settlement Agreement (with the pricing as set forth in Section 6.D above).

G.                                     The Definition of Growth FFELP Volume in, and Attachment J to, the ExportSS Agreement are hereby deleted in their entirety.

H.                                    During the Commitment Period of the ExportSS Agreement and with respect to all Serial Loans required to be sold under the ExportSS Agreement after the expiration or termination of the ExportSS Agreement, as amended by this Settlement Agreement, Bank One shall remain a Lender under the MEDLOANS loan program offered by EOG Related Persons and the Association of American Medical Colleges pursuant to the Agreement between the applicable EOG Related Persons and the Association of American Medical Colleges; provided, that, if an EOG Related Person offers a MEDLOANS loan program to a particular school that meets the definition of Custom Deal Loans under Section 6.E(iii) above, Bank One and the applicable EOG Related Persons must both agree to Bank One’s participation in the Custom Deal at such school, it being understood that neither party is under any obligation to agree to such participation in a Custom Deal at such school.

I.                                         Section 21 of the ExportSS Agreement is hereby amended by adding the following provision: “Bank One will give Sallie Mae 60 days’ written notice if Sallie Mae breaches any of its obligations in this Agreement.  If Sallie Mae does not cure the breach by the end of the 60 days, Bank One may terminate the Agreement in whole or part.”

10

J.                                        The limitation on indirect, consequential or exemplary damages provided for in Section 7 of the ExportSS Agreement shall also be applicable to Bank One.

K.                                    The fees set forth in Attachment A and Attachment A-1 of the ExportSS Agreement applicable as of the date hereof shall not be increased during the Commitment Period, or for all Loans and Serial Loans required to be sold after the termination or expiration of the ExportSS Agreement.

7.                                      USA LPA and Commitment.

The USA LPA and Commitment are hereby amended as of July 1, 2004 as follows:

A.                                   Notwithstanding the termination of the Marketing Agreement, the purchase price for Loans payable under the USA LPA remains unchanged, unless and until Bank One exercises its rights to terminate the USA LPA, and then the price will be as set forth in Section 7.E(2) below.  In accordance with Section II.H of the USA LPA, if Bank One exercises its right to terminate the USA LPA and remits to Sallie Mae the termination fee set forth in the USA LPA (discussed below), beginning on the date of termination of the USA LPA, the premium to be paid with respect to Loans and Serial Loans sold to Sallie Mae under the USA LPA shall be 1.00%, which percentage shall be deemed the weighted average of the premiums applicable to Loans purchased during the Term.

B.                                     Bank One will be entitled to all Net Earnings and Bank One will be responsible for payment of the 50 basis point Department of Education lender fee with respect to all Loans first disbursed on or after July 1, 2004.  Bank One and Sallie Mae agree to work together to perform the necessary accounting and payment reconciliations to effectuate the intent of this provision. SMS will have the right to designate the name of the purchaser of all loans sold under the USA LPA.

C.                                     The Minimum Premium obligations under Section III.D of the USA LPA are hereby deleted.

D.                                    Bank One shall have the right to terminate the USA LPA under Section IX.G(b) by providing written notice of its election to terminate the USA LPA on or prior to October 1, 2004 and remitting within 10 days after providing such notice a termination fee calculated pursuant to Section IX.G(b) of the USA LPA.  Sallie Mae hereby represents and agrees that the termination fee under Section IX.G(b) is $9,000,000.00.  For purposes of clarification, upon termination of the USA LPA, the provision of Section IX.G(b) of the USA LPA following the words “provided, however” shall have no further force or effect.

E.                                      If Bank One provides notice of its election to terminate the USA LPA on or prior to October 1, 2004 and remits within 10 days after providing such notice the termination fee, then the USA LPA shall be terminated effective on the date of payment of the termination fee, and then:

11

(1)  The EOG Related Persons’ sole and exclusive remedy with respect to such termination of the USA LPA shall be the receipt of such termination fee.  The EOG Related Persons, and each of them, may not oppose, challenge, contest or seek any form of recourse or relief against the Bank One Related Persons, and the EOG Related Persons, and each of them, hereby irrevocably and unconditionally release and discharge, to the fullest extent permissible under applicable law, the Bank One Related Persons from, and covenant not to assert against the Bank One Related Persons in any forum, any and all claims, counterclaims, demands, actions, causes of action, debts, liabilities, damages, costs, fees, expenses, rights, duties, obligations, liens, petitions, suits, losses, controversies, executions, offsets and sums, of any kind or nature, whether direct or indirect, liquidated or unliquidated, contingent or actual, in law or equity, known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, in contract or tort, or of whatever type or nature, regarding, arising out of, related to, resulting from or in connection with (i) Bank One’s termination of the USA LPA, or (ii) any of the Bank One Related Persons’ actions taken in connection therewith (collectively the “ EOG USA LPA Released Claims”).

(2)  All Loans that are guaranteed for the 2004-2005 Academic Year that Bank One would otherwise, in the absence of such termination, be required to sell to SMS under the USA LPA, will instead be sold to ECFC or its affiliate (or other designee) pursuant to the provisions of the USA LPA, as modified by this Settlement Agreement, but at the sales timing set forth in the ExportSS Agreement and for the weighted average premium set forth in Section 7.A. above.

(3)  Serial Loans that are required to be sold under the post termination provisions of the USA LPA will continue to be sold to ECFC (or its designee) at the weighted average premium set forth in Section 7.A above and at the sales timing set forth in the ExportSS Agreement.

F.                                      The origination and servicing fees charged by Sallie Mae, Inc. or its successors or assigns under the USA Group Master Agreement for Loans under the Federal Family Education Loan Program, dated October 1, 1999, as of the date hereof shall not be increased prior to the termination of the USA LPA, or for all Loans and Serial Loans required to be sold after the termination or expiration of the USA LPA.

G.                                     Bank One intends to assign the USA LPA to Banc One Education Finance Corp., and Banc One Education Finance Corp. intends to assume such obligations.   If such assignment occurs, Bank One shall also assign, and Banc One Education Finance Corp. shall assume, the loan sale obligations of Bank One under the USA LPA, as modified by this Settlement Agreement, with respect to loans made by Banc One Education Finance Corp.  Upon the effective date of such assignment, the rights and obligations of Bank One under the USA LPA shall only apply to Banc One Education Finance Corp. and not to Bank One.  Nothing in this Section 7.G shall be deemed a release of any obligations of Bank One under the USA LPA with respect to any Education Loans made by Bank One (i) prior to the effective date of such assignment or (ii) after the effective date of such assignment (unless, with respect to this clause (ii) only, Bank One merges into JPMorgan Chase Bank, in which event this clause 7.G(ii) shall not apply with respect to Education Loans made after the effective date of such merger).  Bank

12

One and JPMorgan further agree that through the period ending August 31, 2008 they will not use the Bank One or Banc One names in connection with making or marketing Education Loans other than through Bank One, Banc One Education Finance Corp., or any other Bank One affiliate that was a Bank One affiliate prior to July 1, 2004 (and if they do make or market Education Loans through such Bank One affiliate, they will cause such Bank One affiliate to assume the loan sale obligations of Bank One under the USA LPA, as modified by this Settlement Agreement, with respect to loans made by such Bank One affiliate).

8.                                      Education One Loans.

A.                                   With respect to Education One Loans, as defined in the Marketing Agreement, that are first disbursed on or prior to December 31, 2004, Bank One will continue to remit to EOG its share of the Compensation in accordance with the terms of Section 9.4 of the Marketing Agreement, notwithstanding the termination of the Marketing Agreement.  Bank One agrees not to change the sales timing or terms of sale with respect to such Education One Loans without EOG’s prior written consent.  Bank One’s actual and direct costs (including expenses, such as marketing costs and origination costs) incurred and associated with the marketing of the Education One Loans that are first disbursed on or prior to December 31, 2004 (“Reimbursable Expenses”) will be reimbursed to Bank One within 30 days of Sallie Mae’s receipt of an invoice detailing the Reimbursable Expenses.  Bank One shall have the right to offset against the Compensation owed to EOG set forth in this Section 8.A. above any Reimbursable Expenses owed to Bank One.

B.                                     Bank One will use all commercially reasonable efforts to continue to market Education One Loans in substantially the same manner as was set forth in EOG’s marketing plan for the 2004-2005 Academic Year (as annexed in Schedule 5 hereto), but solely as it relates to the sourcing of loans with a first disbursement on or prior to December 31, 2004.  Through December 31, 2004, Bank One will, subject to the terms thereof, maintain in full force and effect all agreements between Bank One and any other parties relating to the marketing of Education One Loans, for the purpose of enhancing the aggregate principal balance of Education One Loans that are first disbursed prior to December 31, 2004.  Through December 31, 2004, Bank One will provide monthly disbursement reports to Sallie Mae in a form and format identical to the reports provided by EOG to the applicable EOG Related Person prior to July 1, 2004 (as annexed in Schedule 6 hereto). Effective as of July 1, 2004, but solely to the extent identified on Schedule 4 hereto (to which true and correct copies of the respective agreements relating to the Education One Marketing Obligations, as defined below, are annexed), EOG will, to the extent permitted under such agreements, assign to Bank One, and Bank One will assume the obligations of EOG under, all marketing agreements executed by EOG relating to the Education One Loans (“Education One Marketing Obligations”), including without limitation all agreements relating to direct mail campaigns.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Bank One shall not assume, and shall have no liability for, any and all obligations and liabilities arising under or related to the Education One Marketing Obligations that arise or have arisen before, on or after the date hereof relating to acts or omissions occurring or services performed prior to July 1, 2004.  Nothing herein or in any such assignment agreements shall preclude the EOG Related Persons from entering into marketing relationships with the counterparties to any EOG marketing agreements.

13

C.                                     With respect to Education One Loans that are first disbursed on or after January 1, 2005, any and all of Sallie Mae’s rights under the Marketing Agreement, including without limitation any and all rights under the Second Amendment to Marketing and Liquidity Services Agreement, dated April 30, 2001, shall be of no force and effect.

9.                                      EOG Employees’ Travel and Entertainment Expenditures. 

Within thirty (30) days following receipt of an invoice from EOG and acceptable supporting documentation, Bank One will reimburse EOG for reasonable out of pocket travel and entertainment expenses of EOG Employees, except for the Excluded Employees, incurred on or after July 1, 2004 through August 6, 2004, that exceed an aggregate amount of $[**].  In no event shall such reimbursement obligation exceed $[**].

10.                               Confidentiality.

Each Party agrees and covenants that it will take all reasonable steps to ensure, preserve, and protect the confidentiality of (i) the pricing set forth in this Settlement Agreement, and (ii) the list of Great Lakes schools referenced on Schedule 3 to this Settlement Agreement, which the Parties agree are confidential and shall not be disclosed or revealed by them, except as specified below:

C.                                     To any third parties as may be mutually agreed in writing by the Parties; and

D.                                      To the extent required by law, subpoena or other judicial process, provided that prior to complying therewith the Party receiving such subpoena or process advises (to the extent legally permissible) the other Party and the court or issuer thereof of this confidentiality provision and makes reasonable, diligent effort to protect the contents of this Settlement Agreement from disclosure.

Dear Jennifer,

Thank you for the opportunity to continue working with you and your staff to deliver a comprehensive education financing solution for students of Indiana University (see attached list of campuses).  Sallie Mae’s solution includes an industry leading federal loan program along with a customized private loan program.  This “Letter of Understanding” summarizes the products and services that Sallie Mae will provide to Indiana University, its students and their parents.  This Letter is considered an addendum to the Agreement between Indiana University and Sallie Mae dated November 14, 2003 and all terms in that Agreement remain in effect.  The terms in this letter are in effect for the Academic Year 2004/2005 and will be renegotiated each academic year, renewable through June 30, 2009.

Our main objectives will be to accomplish the following:

•                              Offer Indiana University students and their parents a comprehensive education financing plan that includes:

•                              Industry leading federal loan programs;

•                              Private loan program with competitive rates and fees; and

•                              Signature Opportunity Loan Program — private loans for students ineligible for other programs, including international students with proper INS documentation.

•                              Offer borrowers flexible repayment options and money-saving borrower benefits.

Sallie Mae is committed to these goals and pledges the full support of its professional staff in achieving these objectives.  We are confident that Sallie Mae has the expertise, depth and resources and infrastructure to create and implement an education-financing program that stands ahead of our competitors.

Terms of the Indiana University Comprehensive Line Program

Sallie Mae will provide a loan program tailored to the needs of Indiana University, its students and their parents.  Under the program, Sallie Mae offers Indiana University students a comprehensive education financing solution, including both federal and private education loans.  The Indiana University/Sallie Mae arrangement will enable Indiana University to offer an innovative private loan program and expand access to education programs.

Federal Family Education Loan Program

Bank One (811925), Chase (807807), Dollar Bank (822583), FNB Sioux Falls (810457) Suntrust Bank (819873), Fifth Third Bank (803688), National City Bank (831403) and Citizens Bank of New England (805204) will fund FFELP loans for Indiana University students and their parents.  Sallie Mae has agreements to purchase FFELP loans made by the above lenders and will provide loan origination and life-of-loan servicing on such loans.

Indiana University has indicated that they plan to continue to use USA Funds as its guarantor.  USA Funds is Sallie Mae’s preferred guarantor.  Sallie Mae manages the guarantee, disbursement and customer service functions for USA Funds.  By selecting a Sallie Mae lender and USA Funds as its guarantor, Indiana University will have the benefit of true life-of-loan servicing from loan guarantee through repayment.

Subsidized and Unsubsidized Federal Stafford Loan Program – Students who meet all Title IV eligibility criteria can borrow for both undergraduate and graduate education.

Federal PLUS Loan Program – Eligible parents may borrow for each dependent undergraduate who is enrolled at least halftime.  Parents may finance up to the full cost of attendance, less financial aid the student receives.  Parents can apply for the loans via Sallie Mae’s Parent Answer^® Service.

•                              Sallie Mae’s Parent Answer Service consists of a group of well-trained financial aid and loan counselors dedicated to assisting parents with college financing options.

•                              Parent Answer provides credit counseling for parents who have credit issues that may keep them from being credit Approved for a PLUS loan.  This counseling service is known as PLUS Success^SM.  In many cases, issues can be resolved quickly, and a parent can be credit approved for a PLUS loan.

Borrower Benefits

Sallie Mae leads the industry with benefits that reward customers for repaying their loans on time, and made federal student loans more affordable.  These benefits are available for loans originated, sold to and serviced by Sallie Mae throughout repayment.

Scenario I – Indiana University Stafford Borrower Benefit Package (Loans funded by Dollar Bank and FNB Sioux Falls):

•                              [**]% Loan Origination Fee for Stafford Loan Borrowers – Indiana University borrowers, with loans disbursed on or after July 1, 2004, through June 30, 2009 will have access to federal Stafford loans with a [**] percent loan origination fee.  These loans will be funded by FNB Sioux Falls and Dollar Bank.

All Indiana University students will receive the benefit if they obtain a Stafford loan first disbursed on or after July 1, 2004 that is funded by Bank One, Chase, Fifth Third Bank, Citizens Bank of New England, National City Bank or Suntrust Bank.  Borrowers will receive a check from Sallie Mae.  It will be mailed to their address on record approximately 30 days after full disbursement.  In the event that the check is not cashed or the check is returned for an insufficient address, the credit will be applied to the borrowers account.

Borrowers will also be encouraged to enroll in Manage Your Loans and agree to receive account information via e-mail.

•                              Indiana University [**] Percent Rewards – Stafford borrowers funded by Bank One, Chase, Fifth Third Bank, Citizens Bank of New England, National City Bank or Suntrust Bank who make their first 33 scheduled payments on-time get a [**] percentage point interest rate reduction on each eligible loan as long as they continue to pay one time.  (Note: this interest rate reduction cannot exceed the actual interest rate on the loan at the time the benefit is earned.)

•                              [**] Percent Guarantee Fee – Indiana University students will have access to a [**] percent guarantee fee loan for AY 2004/2005.

MEDLOANS Stafford Loan Borrower Benefits

•                              The MEDLOANS Stafford Cash Back Program offers MEDLOANS Stafford borrowers choice, convenience and substantial savings.  With this benefit, borrowers receive a [**]% credit based on the eligible loan’s original principal amount.  Borrowers are in control of their savings by choosing to receive the benefit as either cash or a loan account credit.  To qualify:

•                              A MEDLOANS Stafford loan must have been first disbursed with Bank One and be owned and serviced by Sallie Mae throughout repayments.

•                              The customer must enroll in Manage Your Loans and sign up to receive account information by e-mail.

47

monthly education loan payments will receive a [**] percentage point interest rate reduction on eligible loans for as long as they make on time payments through the plan.

Combined Billing

Borrowers with FFELP and private loans owned and serviced by Sallie Mae have the benefit of receiving one monthly billing statement combining the loans.

Repayment Options

Combined Billing – FFELP and private loan customers whose loans are owned and serviced by Sallie Mae have the benefit of receiving one monthly billing statement combining the loans.

Net.Repay^SM is an online student loan bill presentment and payment service.  With this system, customers receive an e-mail reminder when their monthly bill is available for viewing.  After viewing, clicking on the “Pay” button will automatically debit the user’s specified bank account on the next business day.

The Standard Repayment option provides Stafford, PLUS and private loan customers with the lowest total loan cost.  This option requires payments of principal and interest due each month.

Sallie Mae also offers several graduated and reduced payment options to make payments more affordable.  Eligibility for a graduated repayment plan is dependent on loan type, interest rate and repayment time remaining.

The Grad Choice^SM option is a graduated repayment plan that allows customers to make reduced payments for two, three or four years that may be as low as interest only with standard payments of principal and interest for the remaining repayment term.  Payments under a Grad Choice option in some cases can be more than 60% lower during the reduced payment period than payments made under the Standard Repayment option.  This repayment option is available to Stafford and PLUS loan customers.

The Select Step^SM option is a graduated repayment plan that allows customers to make interest-only payments for up to four years followed by standard payments of principal and interest for the remaining repayment term.  This repayment option is available to Stafford, PLUS and private loan customers.

The FLEX REPAY^SM option – offered exclusively by Sallie Mae – makes payments more affordable for Stafford and PLUS customers by extending student loan repayment while minimizing total loan costs as compared with loan consolidation.  With Flex Repay, eligible customers can get lower payments for up to four years.  If payment relief is still needed, principal and interest payments can gradually be increased for up to five years through reduced payment forbearance.  Standard principal and interest payments follow for the remaining repayment term.  The Flex Repay option is an affordable alternative to loan consolidation.

48

The Income-Sensitive Repayment option offers payments that are based on a percentage of the borrower’s monthly gross income.  (The minimum payment amount must cover the monthly interest accrual.)  The borrower must reapply every year and payments are adjusted annually to reflect any changes in the borrower’s income.  This program is open to Stafford, PLUS and consolidation loan customers.

Extended Repayment Option – Certain customers with greater than $30,000 in outstanding FFELP debt may be eligible for a 25-year repayment term and the choice of either a standard or graduated payment plan.

Signature Student Loan, MBA LOANS private loan, Indiana University Custom Dental Loan, LAWLOANS private loan and Bar Study Loan customers with private loan debt in excess of $20,000 may be eligible to extend their repayment term up to 20-years.  Customers with even higher balances may be able to extend their term up to a 25-years.

Loan Consolidation

Sallie Mae customers and non-Sallie Mae customers who have FFELP loans with more than one holder have the ability to consolidate with Sallie Mae.  Sallie Mae offers several loan consolidation options:

•                              The SMART LOAN Consolidation Account is a practical, education debt-management option that enables customers to consolidate all of their federal loan debt (Stafford, PLUS and Perkins).  This program enables customers to reduce their initial monthly payments by as much as 50 percent.  As the nation’s largest FFELP consolidation lender, Sallie Mae provides customers with expert consolidation counseling via a toll-free telephone number, and an array of web-based services, including an online application and electronic signature.

•                              The MEDLOANS Consolidation Loan is a federal consolidation loan program offered by Sallie Mae in cooperation with the Association of American Medical Colleges (AAMC).  The MEDLOANS Consolidation Loan is a practical debt management tool that offers all the benefits of a federal loan consolidation and more!  Designed exclusively for customers who have attended schools of allopathic or osteopathic medicine, the MEDLOANS Consolidation Loan program provides special borrower benefits that can potentially save thousands of dollars in interest expenses.  MEDLOANS also offers consolidation counseling services tailored to meet the needs of today’s medical students and residents as well as practicing physicians.

•                              SMART Advantage Account – allows Sallie Mae Stafford and PLUS borrowers to place their Sallie Mae loans into a non-consolidated account and consolidate only the loans that Sallie Mae does not currently own (i.e., direct loans).  Borrowers receive payment relief needed through a longer repayment term and maintain eligibility for Sallie Mae’s borrower benefits, which will reduce the total cost of their loan indebtedness.

49

Sallie Mae can work with Indiana University to endorse and promote loan consolidation programs to students with outstanding direct loans or FFELP loans with other lenders to ensure that customers are aware of their consolidation options.  Sallie Mae believes that the following services will allow Indiana University to personalize the relationship with their students.  These services can include:

•                              Onsite exit counselling.  Sallie Mae can lead in-depth sessions designed to meet the needs of your students.  Handouts can be tailored to include consolidation examples based on typical student debt profiles for your programs.

•                              Training sessions for your financial aid staff.  These sessions are designed to help FAAs understand the consolidation application process and counsel students about debt management.

•                              Loan consolidation materials.  These materials range from pocketsize consolidation information cards to comprehensive consolidation packets that include an informative, 12-page booklet and a SMART LOAN application.

•                              Personalized communications to students.  Sallie Mae can help your staff draft letters alerting students to specific consolidation opportunities, such as a pending rate change, or prepare and mail letters to those students who are Sallie Mae customers.  These communications can be targeted to students who are preparing to graduate, to students who have graduated or to students who are already in repayment.

Customers who consolidate through Sallie Mae will have access to the following loan consolidation borrower benefit programs.  These programs offer substantial savings through interest rate discounts awarded for on-time payments.

•                              Direct Repay – SMART LOANS Consolidation Account borrowers will receive a ¼ percentage point interest rate reduction on eligible loans if they authorize the automatic debit of funds to cover their monthly loan payments.

•                              SMART LOAN^® Consolidation Account Benefit – Customers who have an initial federal consolidation loan balance of at least $10,000 can earn a 1-percentage point interest rate reduction after they make their first 36 scheduled monthly payments on time.  The interest rate reduction continues as long as on time payments are made.

•                              MEDLOANS Consolidation Rewards – a 1 percentage point interest rate reduction is available on MEDLOANS Consolidation Loans made on or after January 15, 2003.  To qualify, MEDLOANS Consolidation customers must make their initial 48 scheduled monthly payments on time.  The interest rate reduction continues as long as on time payments are made.

Note:  Benefits are not applicable to the portion of MEDLOANS Consolidation Loans that are made up of HEAL loans.

50

•                              MEDLOANS Consolidation Cash Back – is an incentive program that rewards MEDLOANS Consolidation Loan customers for consistently making their payments on time and taking advantage of Sallie Mae’s web-based account services.  With this benefit, customers choose to receive a 1% credit or cash back based on the original principal amount of their MEDLOANS Consolidation Loans.  To qualify:

•                              A MEDLOANS Consolidation Loan must have its first disbursement on or after January 15, 2003.

•                              The customers must enroll in Manage Your Loans and sign up to receive account information by e-mail.

•                              The customer may make his/her initial 33 scheduled payments on time.

Customers must satisfy the above requirements as of the due date of their initial 33^rd scheduled payment.

SCHEDULE 8

BILL OF SALE AND ASSIGNMENT OF INTERESTS IN ASSETS

This Bill of Sale and Assignment of Interests in Assets (the “Bill of Sale”) is executed effective as of the            day of                                          , 2004 (“Effective Date”) by and between Education One Group, Inc. (“Seller”), an Indiana corporation, and Bank One, National Association (“Purchaser”), a national banking association.

WITNESSETH:

WHEREAS, Purchaser and Seller, among others, are parties to that certain Settlement Agreement and Release (“Settlement Agreement”) dated as of July 30, 2004; and

WHEREAS, the parties hereto desire to execute a document to record and evidence the transfer and sale of those assets identified in the Settlement Agreement that are being sold and transferred by Seller to Purchaser.

NOW, THEREFORE, pursuant to section 4 of the Settlement Agreement and in consideration of [**] Dollars ($[**]), the foregoing premises, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Seller hereby sells, assigns and transfers to Purchaser, and Purchaser hereby purchases from Seller, as of the Effective Date, any and all of the Seller’s interest in and to the Transferred Property set forth in Exhibit A hereto.

The Seller herby represents and warrants to the Purchaser as of the Effective Date, to the extent owned, leased, or licensed by Seller and subject to any restrictions on assignment and other legal limitations contained within any such license or lease agreement, that:

(a)                                There are no existing options, commitments or rights with, of or to any person to acquire any of the Transferred Property or any interest therein.

(b)                               The Seller has good, valid and marketable title in and to all of the Transferred Property, free and clear of all mortgages, liens, pledges, and security interests, of any nature whatsoever.

(c)                                To the extent that the Seller’s rights with respect to any of the Transferred Property may not be assigned without the consent of a third party (a “Required Consent”) or notice to a third party (a “Required Notice”), then: (a) Seller and Purchaser shall work together to give any Required Notices in connection with the transfer of such property to Purchaser; and (b) Seller and Purchaser shall work together to use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any such Required Consents. Seller and Purchaser will provide each other with documentation of any Required Notice, and request for and/or receipt of any Required Notice. Failure to obtain any such Required Consent shall not constitute an agreement on the part of Seller and Purchaser to breach the agreement with such third party that required such Required Consent.  Purchaser agrees to cooperate with

56

Seller in obtaining such Required Consents. In the event that, despite the parties’ commercially reasonable efforts to do so a Required Consent is not obtained, then Purchaser shall negotiate in good faith with the third party from which such Required Consent is required to obtain the right to use the Transferred Property in question. In the event such efforts of Purchaser are unsuccessful, Purchaser shall either (a) return such item of Transferred Property to Seller; or (b) agree, with Seller’s consent, which will not unreasonably be withheld, to assume the risk associated with the transfer of such item of Transferred Property and agree to hold Seller harmless from same.

(d)                                 The Transferred Property sold pursuant to this Bill of Sale is SOLD WITHOUT ANY REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND EXCEPT AS SET FORTH HEREIN.  SELLER HEREBY EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ALL OTHER REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.

Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Settlement Agreement.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, each of the undersigned, by its respective duly authorized officer has set his hand effective as of the day and year first noted above.
